Rebirth

Prologue Part Two - An Unlikely Conclusion?

Hello everyone! Prologue part two is out! This will be about half as long as the previous chapter, as I have decided to split it into 3 parts (there's a reason for this, trust me). The third part will be the end of the prologue, Chapter 1 will come after that.

So if you're thinking to yourself, "Why read a prologue?" Trust me, you will benefit from doing so. It's interesting anyways... or I think it is, so don't wait for Chapter 1. Just read the prologue first, okay?

In this chapter we will see some speculation around our MC's arrival. I have finished a few parts on my website about some of the races, magic, and people/organizations in the world. If you are interested in a bit more of the setting check that out.

For those reading on Honeyfeed/RoyalRoadL, you can visit my site https://sorani.me which has updates on what I'm doing, setting information about races, people, magic, etc. presented in an interesting way:

As always, any feedback is welcome on my writing, I know it will be amateur at times.

With that, the story continues...

Prologue Part Two – An Unlikely Conclusion?

==========

I slowly open my eyes...

Huh, that's funny- it looks like someone is looking at me from above...

「Gooodmooorniiinnnggg~~~!」

「AHHHHHH!」

I scramble up against the wall next to the bed in surprise.

Huh, I guess they moved me to a bed after I passed out in that chair last night... now is not the time for that.

Smiling in front of me, at my bedside, is a woman who appears to be in her early 20's. Pure, porcelain skin peeks out from her robes, and long silver hair falls effortlessly down from her head.

She looks at me with a mischievous expression.

「Sorry~ Didn't mean to scare you, tehe~」

God, I hate her already.

「Who are you? Why are you here?」

She pulls back dramatically with an overdone surprised expression.

「You don't remember me~?」

She puts the back of her hand to her head and pretends to faint, what is with this Shakespearian performance...?

「You're the girl who was pretending to sleep outside of Belkas' office, right?」

「So you DO remember!」

She leaps into the air, performing a swan dive- onto me.

「Guhphhshash-」

「Huh? Did you say something?」

Why do people like this exist?

I push her off of me, and she sits on the edge of the bed looking at me with a questioning gaze.

She might be like this, but she is beautiful. Crystal clear, light-blue eyes look into mine- her face has slender, feminine features with slightly pronounced cheekbones. The symmetry is something only a master sculptor would be able to replicate.

「So, why are you here?」

「Hmmmmm~ was there a reason? tehe~」

She puts her hand onto her chin and looks upwards as she says this.
