Chapter 5: Unexpected Occurrence
Two men standing outside the wooden house the one with black wavy hair has well-built body and tall stature and the other one has red hair and lean body carrying a monstrous pig in his back triple his size.
“Asmot you take care that tyrant boar I will take some rest” the black haired man said
The man named Asmot put down the monstrous pig to the side and said “Okay boss this time we got lucky to have this tasty pig” patting the pig to his side.
Hennesy was sitting in a racking chair in the first floor of the wooden house resting leisurely, heard the two man arrive he stand up and move to the front door with both hands at his back.
“It seems were going to eat a sumptuous dinner later for bringing that tyrant boar” a hint of smile on his face.
Asmot chuckled “Of course uncle Hennesy what did you expect for the strongest predator in this entire forest”
“You fibber I was the one who knock this boar and you did not even lift a muscle” the black haired man sneered.
“Boss you should not say that it was just a jest no big deal, uncle Hennesy it’s just a jest!” Asmot said while grinning.
They were talking there when suddenly Kellen came down on the spiral stair and stare at them hesitant to utter a sound he wear a troubled face.
“Ahem, Mr. Hennesy I think I have a problem” he said in low voice.
The three twitches by the sudden sound and glance at the owner of the voice, Hennesy raised his brows in surprise “Why are you still here didn’t I tell you the way to return to your body?” he approach Kellen that is currently standing in the stair.
“You see Mr. Hennesy I did the method you said I spend all the time since you left concentrating to return in my body but nothing happens” Kellen lowered his shoulder resigning.
As the two were talking, Asmot was looking at Kellen somewhat unsure remembering something he saw before.
“Boss that spirit looks familiar don’t you think” tilting his head sideways.
“What are you talking it’s the first time we saw that spirit” he said in a serious tone looking at Kellen who is the only one talking but saying a language they don’t understand.
Asmot cracking his thoughts to remember something and then “Aha, I remember now the guy on the grove before he looks like him” he was nodding in satisfaction.

“Let’s see. Hmm…. yeah this guy looks like him but that guy we saw looks way younger than him” the black haired man said indifferently.
Asmot chortled “Boss sometimes you are really dense you know”
“What you getting cocky now saying I am stupid” he frowned looking at Asmot.
“Hahahaha, boss you are getting sensitive you know that I was talking nonsense it is no big deal no big deal” Asmot raising his both arms to his shoulder.
They were observing for a while now that the black haired man decides to join the conversation of the two. He started to move toward Hennesy who is currently standing in front of Kellen beside the stair.
“Uncle Hennesy who is this spirit that’s with you” the black haired man suddenly asked.
“Oh! Acacia I nearly forgot to tell you two this guy is Kellen he entered the house a while ago I caught him in the top floor”
It seems that the name of the black haired guy is Acacia, he is now placing his fingers in his chin and start to rub it “Is that so, it is rare to see spirit in this forest, uncle Hennesy you remember the time we told you that we saw a spirit it looks like him but that time his still a juvenile”
Hennesy nodded “Are you sure about that? This guy thinks that his only dreaming and not aware that he is wondering outside his body maybe you just assuming that”
Asmot approach Hennesy excitedly “That was cool I want to try that also do you know how to do that uncle Hennesy to wonder my spirit outside my body” he look at Kellen in amusement.
Hennesy shake his head and said “If I knew that I would do that long ago but we have strong spiritual power, our spiritual attachment to our body is impregnable, maybe it can be attain through training but I am not sure. The only sure thing is when your body is in the verge of death or been damage badly that’s when you can become like him”
“If you want to experience to become a spirit I can help you with that, uncle Hennesy said if you are in a verge of death right?” Acacia clench his both fist making a popping sound.
“Aw no way, you are so mean boss you want to beat me that badly?” Asmot sneering at Acacia move a few step backward.
Kellen was baffle on the sudden occurrence that is happening Hennesy said that the only possibility for him to fail in returning to his body is that, his body has been badly damage and the possibility that he is now dying physically. He now remember that he was been hit in the head and pass out after that, the moment he open his eyes his already in this place. Which means that he cannot wake up for the time being or until he succeed in returning to his body. This is the reason why Kellen is currently standing there staring blankly at the floor, his thinking the incident that happen and why it happen to him when he already have a new hope by acquiring a job in a new company. He was thinking of his mother on what she would feel if she sees him in a hospital bed not waking up. He is just hoping that nothing serious happened to him and he can go back to his physical body soon.

“Kellen”
Hennesy’s voice rung through his head breaking him from spacing out, he shake his head and look at the three that is now looking at him.
“Tell us where you slept in this forest so we can save your body, you just pray that it is still there and still intact or else even if we help to get it but impossible to recuperate it is over for you. If my notion is correct your physical body has been attack by some beast out there and is now slowly dying out there or worst devouring it” Hennesy told him telepathically
“What do you mean Hennesy this is getting confusing“ Kellen was puzzled not knowing if this is a joke or something.
“What I am saying is I will asked this two to retrieve your body in this forest it must be near here right? “ He sigh slightly
“If you’re going to sleep in the wilds at least find a safe spot this is Kadim Forest where danger is omnipresence and you should know that” shaking his head showing a hint of annoyance and restrain.
Kellen was really puzzled on what Hennesy said.
‘What is he talking about I can’t comprehend this guy anymore, Kadim Forest what is that some forest in other country is that in Asia’ Kellen is cracking his thoughts feeling distressed his only thinking one thing now, that is to have an idea on what place is this that Hennesy was talking about.
“Hennesy I think that you are misunderstanding something, you know I did not slept in the forest nor venture here on my will. Anyway can you enlighten me what is this place and what country is this?” Kellen asked eagerly swaying his right hand sideways.
“What are you doing playing dumb?”
Hennesy looks intensely with Kellen after seeing that he has really no clue Hennesy sigh and continued.
“This is Mt. Hayaman inside forest Kadim if you are asking on what country is this you are under the territory of Sarcalies Kindom one of the five kingdom ruling in Taranos continent” Hennesy look curiously at Kellen, thinking why Kellen didn’t know this basic information about this continent that his living with it. He now starts to form a doubt in his mind.
‘Holy Sh*t were the hell did I end up to?’
Kellen is now astonished in what he heard his eyes grew bigger suddenly, his thoughts are now jumbled thinking that he is now somewhat in mysterious world that he don’t have knowledge of. He became restless feeling anxious and excited at the same time. Kellen now understand why Hennesy is saying weird things.
“Uncle Hennesy I think you should know something” Kellen said hesitantly. “You know I remember that I was been gang up in my way home and fall unconscious after that, and that was happen not long ago”
Hennesy nodded slightly “So that’s it now I can understand, but I am sure that there is no village in this forest” he look at Kellen with face full of question.
“That’s what I want to tell you and it concerned me also. It is just that I don’t belong to any place in this world. The fact is, I am from a different place and that place is not a located in any part of your world. I came from a different world way far from here and it is called Earth”
“WHAT!”
Hennesy gape his mouth looking at Kellen from head to toe astonished with what he heard.
Acacia and Asmot startled with the sudden shout of Hennesy.
“Why did you shout Hennesy” Acacia asked curiously.
Hennesy composing himself said “It was just. I was only shocked by this spirit declaration”
“What did he say uncle Hennesy” this time Asmot join the conversation
“He said that his not an inhabitant of our world and he comes from another world different from us”
“Whaaaaat!” the two of them said in unison standing there dumbfounded looking at Kellen who is now staring at the floor avoiding their gaze.
