Chapter 9: Chapter 9: the emojis are late for work

Pov-???

Huh?

I turned around, left and right, but nothing was found but a hazy fog.

The sky was blue, the sun was red. The rain isn't strong nor weak but no clouds were present making it.

I looked at my hands but what appeared to me is a pure white space that is in the shape of a hand.

Where am I? I thought to myself. My memories are weak and I fail to recall them every time I try to.

Only a few details are in my mind, simple words, simple things, aura, talent, and... Magic.

Confused, I tried to walk in a single direction to see if it changes anything but it didn't.

I tried activating my aura but I still didn't feel anything, it felt like I lost a limb there or something but it didn't really matter that much.

I continued to walk and walk, it felt like an eternity but at the same time, it all happened in a flash.

Just where am I?  Was the question that I always asked myself but deep within me, I know that no one will come by and answer the question.

I walked, and walked, and walked, but didn't find anything. My mental health is also not stable anymore, I feel like I'm going crazy but at the same time, I feel like I'm being even saner.

I walked and walked. I don't know how far I have gone but I still don't know where is the end. Until I reached that place...

"What is this?" I said in a calm voice. Just catching a glimpse at it makes me want to stay away from it.

It was a wall scribbled with writings. I don't know and do not know what is the meaning of those scribbles but one thing is for sure, I shouldn't touch them.

Though it sucked to not touch them I can still watch them from afar which is kinda... Peaceful? I'm living in this world for years now and the only thing I saw was this enormous fog. It makes me feel... fresh seeing something new here.

I walked to my right to see if there is an end to this wall and to see if I can escape this hellish place.

I walked, and walked, and walked. The endless scribbles that I found on this hazy wall were still in there as I watch it from afar.

I somehow wanted to touch them but I knew what will be the consequences behind it, and it will be a disaster.

I walked for years upon years trying to find an end to this endless world to no avail until that is...

"The scribbles repeated?"

The pattern of the scribbles is repeated and it felt like I returned to my initial place.

All of my hope is gone and I have given up trying to figure out how to escape this dream-like world but somehow, I feel nothing.

I then continued to walk mindlessly in this vast space of hell with no destination whatsoever.

This cycle continued for thousands of years until I thought of a stupid plan.

"What if I touch those scribbles?"

I said as I look into the blue sky as if I were asking it what is the answer.

"I'm not going to lose anything anyway."

[Mode 3]

I focused on myself as I erase all of the emotion that is left in my body.

[Mode 2]

Weakening my sense of touch and taste, I was able to enhance my other senses to their limits.

[Mode 1]

Gradually, my instincts overtook me as I move my body with absolute efficiency to find the right stance in this kind of situation.

[Mode 4]

I destroyed all of my 'limiter' with the exchange of absolute pain but my sense of touch weakened so it didn't matter.

My preparations are now ready.

Dashing forward, on this muddy land causes the landscape to change drastically as it shakes uncontrollably. 

I ran the fastest I could leaving only destruction on my path.

I reached the wall of scribbles so I tried to reach my hand towards it but something stopped me. 

Looking up, I saw some kind of black aura surrounding the scribbles as if protecting them from me.

My body shivered.

I... Was terrified, I never once thought in my long life that I could feel this kind of sensation, but that sensation was quickly overtaken by... Excitement.

[Mode 5]

Trying to understand what the black aura would do, I predicted every single move that this thing will do.

The first thing it did was intimidate me but I have a feeling that it could do more than this. An aura of this calibre isn't a laughable matter.

Forcing my hand, using brute force, I manage to break through its aura but it did something that I could not even think was possible.

It... Acquired a physical manifestation. It rushed towards me at an unbelievable speed.

*BOOOM*

Although I manage to barely block it, it was still not enough to fully negate the impact, so I went flying.

The rain was weak and slow and the sun that was once beautiful was no longer to be seen. Thinking stupid thoughts like this while in a middle of a seemingly impossible fight was once a habit of mine.

Landing perfectly on the muddy ground, I looked at the aura where is standing and saw him looking down at me.

Humiliation and pride vanished the moment I used my power so this didn't demerit my mental state.

Seeing that it was coming to me, I decided to use my last mode.

[Mode 6]

"£@¢#€$¥&℅®\"

"@#%%#@#@√•@$%@#%#%√$#√√#@@#%@#"

---------------------------------------------

"GAAAAAHHHGGG"

I woke up.

Looking around, I find myself inside my bedroom indicating that everything that happened was a dream.

"Huf Huf Huf"

My body is shivering and cold sweat runs throughout me. The dream felt so real and yet it wasn't. 

Why did it start appearing again?

It wasn't my first time having this kind of dream, I have always had it but it stopped when I went to high school.

But to think that after I leave my school years this dream started appearing again.

I-i need my pills.

I get up from my bed shakily as I go to the closet. I tried finding it there but it was no use.

I then looked everywhere in the room just to find my pills until I looked below my bed.

There it is!

It was a bottle full of pills that I am finding. 

I grabbed it, took one, and gulped it down in one go.

I didn't feel anything change, my heart is still beating fast, and my headache is still there.

Placing the bottle on the table, I reach the living room as I slump on the couch trying to sleep there.

My head is still dizzy with what happened and maybe a simple nap would take care of all this.

I closed my eyes while moving my hand on top of my head.

Maybe sleeping again will make my conditions go away. I want to sleep.

Those were my last thoughts before I began to fall asleep at an incredible rate.

*poke *poke

my head... Hurts.

*poke *poke

not now Lil sis, I'll sleep a bit more.

You are reading story The hero that was sent to another world (rewrite i guess?) at novel35.com

*poke *poke

"15 minutes more please"

*poke *poke

"Okay, now what is it?"

I opened my eyes a little bit angrily as I looked at my little sister who keep poking me, except that she wasn't my little sister.

"Who are you again?"

It was a beautiful girl with white hair staring at me with a straight face as she pokes my cheeks.

"Hela... Lazuli"

oh, she actually answered my question.

From my experience, people don't answer my question that frequently so I tried to force them sometimes. 

although she answered my question, I still don't know who she is so I'm still a bit lost here.

"I'm... a sentient entity that is not from this world and is outside of it, simply put, an another worlder," she identified herself, maybe she got it for my expression or something.

other worlder? Now, where did I heard that word again?

I sat on the couch as I put a thinking position. She also sat on the couch sitting there formally.

That's where It clicked with me.

"oh, you were that other worlder huh? Sorry, I have forgotten you because of my shit memory," she just nodded as she went and open the Tv.

 I somehow slept on the couch but maybe I just forgot it.

Looking at my phone, the time is 8:50 am which surprised me a bit because I never woke this early at the weekends.

"Hey Hela, someone is waiting outside this building and he will be the one teaching you common sense. I'm pretty sure that he will only tour you around so why not come with me?"

Nodding her head, I decided to go back to my room to get some money in the closet while she was waiting in the living room. It was fairly quick so it didn't take that much time.

"Let's go," I said to Hela.

"WAIT A MINUTE!!!" A shout that came from my Lil sister's room echoed in the area that hurt my ears a little bit.

My sister then ran towards her looking a little bit... Messy.

"Let me join!" My sister said.

"What?"

"Let me join wherever you two are going," she said this as if I have no other choice but to oblige.

"Okay?" I don't have any problems with that but did you really have to shout?

"Let me change my clothes first. Wait for me in the security check thing!" She said as she ran back to her bedroom.

There were a few seconds of silence in the living room probably because of how she went in and went out.

"I guess we should go now?"

We then went straight to the elevator and went down through the apartment. Hela, in the elevator, was asking how this thing works but I just said someone is going to explain it down there. Teaching isn't my forte so doing this kind of task is hurting my brain too much. I want to go to bed sleep right now.

*ding*

"Oh, looks like we are here now," I said with a sigh. 

I went out of the elevator but never saw Hela going out so I checked up on her only to find her frozen up.

"Hey Hela, we should go now?" I said to her as I placed my hand on her shoulder shaking her up a bit.

"Ah, oh okay" 

That was weird

We then got out of the building and to the park where Rey is supposed to be in are right in front of us. 

"Rey should be there," I said in a mumbling voice.

"Hey, John... what are those metal boxes?"

"Rey will explain it," this should be my excuse when she would ask something troublesome.

"Let's walk around the park at the moment. Can't see Rey here."

Nodding her head, we decided to take a stroll first while finding Rey in the meantime.

The park was relatively big but not to the point that it would be the biggest structure here.

There was also a lake in the middle of the park and some mountain bikers taking a break. 

There is one thing that is bothering me the most here.

"Hey, mom look, a lady with white hair!"

"Stress perhaps?"

"Good lord that guy is fucking lucky with her."

"Is that a cosplaying girl? What anime was she again?"

"Dunno, maybe something underrated?"

"Hey, that guy is ugly compared to that goddess"

Mumbles that are coming from some people that are misunderstanding my situation are all around the park now. Also, I'm ugly?

"Yo John, lookin good there," said someone behind me.

I turn around to see Rey in a tour guides uniform?

"You wondering about this? Well, since I'm gonna tour you two around this city I needed a uniform for the job right?"

That explains it. Rey is a bit of a handyman so he should have this kind of uniform.

"So this is the girl you have been talking about huh? What's your name, young lady?"

"Hela... Lazuli"

Hela replied with a short pause like always.

"My name is Rey Heartlock, what could I be of service of you young master and young lady?"

Oh no, his cringe phase is starting!

Hela just stared at him bowing with a... <wondering what to do> face.

"So uh Rey, the 'job', don't forget the job, Rey," I said in a bit of a threatening voice.

"That could be done immediately, my lord. Although I have one simple doubt about something," just fucking say it.

"Where is the money," he whispered.

"*sigh* here," I bring out my wallet that I have brought from my bedroom as I took out 1500 pesos from it.

"The deal is done my good sir, I'll tour you two around this city, just treat yourselves as a guest," this was probably the reason why his introduction on that website was funny.

----------------------------------------------

40 minutes later in a certain apartment.

"Eh?" 

Where did they go?

I looked around, left and right but my brother and Hela were not in sight.

Don't tell me.

"Big brother forgot me... Again?"

Unbearable anger boiled within me.

"WHY DIDN'T YOU TWO LET ME THIRD WHEEL YOUR DATE!!!"

I wanted to see my brother's reactions, I want to see him smile, I want to see their kiss, I want to see them lovey-dovey, what a waste of opportunity.

...

"I have decided!" I exclaimed with a loud voice.

"I'll find them within this city whatever it takes!"
