《Wandering through the stars》Chapter 3: Open status
Advertisement
I was able to raise my body a little this time. After calming down, I looked around to see if there was any connection between my map skill and the area I was in. There were bars, three walls, and a small window. It was definitely a prison. It looks like the perimeter of the skill is around 4-5 meters in each direction, then a circle of around 2 meters? I gave up trying to calculate it because my math knowledge is so shallow. The map seemed to show only what was visible. Earlier, however, I couldn't see the space around me, so how was it displayed... Aargh! Dammit, my head hurts!
My body screamed in pain as I stood up, and when I was up, I had to lean on the wall because suddenly I was dizzy. There was nothing but darkness on the other side of the bars. I assume it was nighttime. I suspect so, judging by how little light I could get from the window. I had to find out where it was. Based on earlier events, I did something bad (I don't remember); I got beaten up (I remember) by my own brother (I don't remember), and now I'm in a prison (where is this?). Hmmm. This was way more messed up than I had imagined. Looking at the state of the room, the sword fight earlier, and the fact that I am royal and got beaten in the arena... Am I going to die?
I was gripped by fear. Having no knowledge at all coupled with the recent events made my body start shaking. Additionally, my body started hurting, but it didn't seem to be from my injuries from the fight. "Badum" "Badum" "Badum" "Badum" Wha...t ?! Why does this keep happening to me? Why? Why? What did I do to deserve such treatment? I didn't bother anyone, I kept my mouth shut, I worked hard...so why? Tell me WHY?!?!?! WHYYYYYYYYYYY?????????

The "SNAP" of a loud sound startled me and I felt liquid flowing and mixing with the snout on my face. Everything went dark after that. I passed out.
.....
I woke up feeling someone kick me in the stomach. I admit I was hungry but did you have to kick me so hard? That hurts. Let me sleep for a little longer. Just give me one more hour, it's not like I am demanding too much.
“My dear brother, wake up!"
As soon as I heard those words, I jumped, but my legs were not strong enough so I fell down. How could I not when I remembered my little brother? However, before my eyes was a little girl, not him. The two of them had the same appearance and voice, so it is likely they were related. But why...
"Splash"
As I lay on the ground, something stale and smelly was thrown over my body. Immediately after smelling it, my stomach contracted and poured everything out. The only thing I had to drink was water, proof of my sudden hunger, which was worse than earlier. I could see the girl and a few soldiers on the other side of the bars laughing like no tomorrow as I coughed my life away. Since it wasn't as bad as I thought, I got used to the smell after a while.
Having no idea who to talk to, I asked those people, "Why are you here?".
"Is it not possible to see my dear brother one last time?" the little girl giggled as if she said something funny.
"Last...time? What do you mean?" I was shaking already, but I'd rather know than not know.
As soon as I said this, the other people started laughing even harder than before.

"My dear brother will go to Heaven today!" she exclaimed. "Or Hell!" The others all laughed louder when they heard this.
"You bitch, do you think it's funny to laugh at somebody like this? You scumbag...Guh!"
Although my mind was in chaos, I knew that I was lashing at someone who was "probably" innocent. At that moment, I saw her pointing at me and felt something in my chest. An impressive chunk of ice was firmly embedded in my chest when I looked. I fell on my back as blood spurted from my mouth. However, since a piece of ice was also on my back, I felt miserable as I felt the ice move in my chest. What should I do? THINK!! I must get this thing out and be treated! I can't breathe! Help!!
As I was losing my mind again, I remembered the strange lines I saw earlier. It was like some sort of system, wasn't it?
"Open..bleah..system"
"What are you saying?" asked someone confused. "Check him and treat him!" ordered the girl.
What the heck, bitch? Are you treating me now? Meanwhile, a few system windows opened in front of me:
*Ding*
*Critical condition*
*Debuffs: Bleeding, Open wound, Asfixiation(medium), Hunger(medium), Fear(medium), Madness(low)*
*Health in critical condition, losing health due to additional debuffs*
*Mental stability in critical condition, losing mana due to additional debuffs*
*Report: Host will die in 10 seconds*
*Report: Memory recollection failed, setting this memory to a low rank*
*Report: Time of host awake: 2:31:47; setting this memory to the lowest rank*
*Report: Detected huge emotional impact in the future, setting additional conditions to.....*
"I didn't want that, you crazy...."
I died.

Binary of Life and Death
Monsters, gold, chaos, glory, adventure, what more could attract two of the greatest players of all time to Sugarea, the most popular MMORPG of its time. But everyone makes errors, and unfortunate for these two brilliant players, they have made the grave mistake of not actually sleeping like normal humans and missed out on the very moment the new Dark Legion update would take effect. Or did they? They wake in what seems familiar yet not, but they soon realize their predicament. They are inside their game avatar's bodies! A half-Demon and a Dragonoid are now struggling with more than just power, these two men have to find their new purpose and calling in a completely different world. Will they concur it like ordinary land or will they enlighten the planet into equality? Do figures pull strings in the dark or is everything open to the public eye? Nothing is certain except the unknown, and nothing is ever as it seems... This is an Isekai story, as such, some parts may sound either cliché or similar to others, but I assure you, I tried to prevent that. To make it known, I took quite a lot of inspiration from the light novel/anime Overlord, but that doesn't mean it's a direct rip-off of it. You'll find there to be quite the amount of differences. Just a little heads up as well, you should expect irregular uploads, as it takes me a long time to write each chapter. I am currently trying for once every other week on Sundays around 10:00 A.M. Chapters are usually 7k words and up, with the longest (chapter 3) being 10.3k words. So, if you like to sit down and read a long chapter every two weeks at 10:00 A.M. EST on Sundays, then you can waste your time here! Small disclaimer: Profanity is far and few between, and mostly used by side characters, rarely the main character. When something with gore happens, I describe to the best of my ability, which will only get better the longer I write this... :) Small cuts between perspectives happen, and can hide what some characters do, which will be revealed in future chapters, I'm not that lazy... all the time... There are some parts that are long blocks of text, most, if not all, of them, are characters talking, but I try not to info dump. I know one of the tags says "Psychological", and for the most part, it is, but it's not as prominent as other stories, instead, it's more hidden and scattered, but I did try to make the pieces I did reveal all fit together. Cover art is bound to be changed when I have a good picture to use, so the Yin-Yang is a placeholder for now unless yall wanna gimme something to use *wink wink nudge nudge*. So yeah, please give it a try, as I have nothing better to do with my life, and I am banking solely off of a career in literature and am hoping that I can create a story that can actually be called something more than a child's imagination running wild. The eventual and inevitable end to the story won't be for a long while, at least till chapter 40 or so. I have thought long and hard about the message and themes at play, so I hope you, the reader (who has some amazing hair btw), can enjoy and partake on this adventure with me into my dark empty pit of an imagination.
