Chapter 40

A new life.

“What the hell!?”

Michaelis was so confused and everywhere he turned, he could only see the color white like he was caged in a white box.

“What's happening?” He slapped his face but he didn't feel any pain.

“Huh?”

He knew he should have felt something as he tried to slap himself again but his palm went right through him.

“It can't be, just relax.”

Realizing something's very wrong, he took a deep breath and closed his eyes, and opened them again. But even then, nothing was changed.

“Am I dead? What was that voice I heard earlier?” he was trained to remain calm in any situation as panicking would only make things worse in his line of work. Yet, no matter how hard he tried to calm and simply make sense out of this situation, he simply couldn't.

“Am I drugged? No, my watch would have indicated if there were any unknown substance in my blood.” As he said, he lifted his wrist to look at his watch but his Rolex was nowhere to be found on his wrist, and in fact, he was naked.
