He could see almost nothing. Up above him through the thick canopy of black trees, the pale moon light could only lightly illuminate the dark silhouette of a hand. The same hand that held “it”, he could only watch passively as that hand came down. Although the hand belonged to him, he felt detached from his own body, passively watching with empty eyes as “it” came closer. Ever so closer as he –

Will flinched awake, the memories of his dream disappearing like mist. Already, the awareness of being awoken washed away any last bits of the dream he had. The only thing left behind is the sensation of how real it felt as if he had lived through it.

‘For the life of me, I can’t seem to remember a thing in that dream…odd. It wasn’t even scary… I think. I feel like it’s one of those falling from a tall building kind of dream. Right before you hit the ground – you wake up.’

Yawning Will gave a quick look around himself.

‘Alright, alright. Got drugged again. Likely Hey-Hey’s doing. Woke up in unfamiliar place again. Okay. Now where am I this time?’

He appeared to be on a…yellow straw-like mat. It wasn’t even a bed this time. It was similar to one of those praying mats he recalled from watching all those animes, with quite a few he has no recollection ever even wanting to watch. Will still wonders where all those information came from, because he would remember watching or reading something right?

‘Well if it has no leads, guess Imma just ignore this little mystery for now. It’s not like this will cause issues for me later right?’

The surrounding was just bland unadorned grey cave walls, with the only other color visible being his vivid blue hair and the yellow mat underneath him.

The thing was… he was totally surrounded by grey cave walls.

In other words, Will has somehow gotten stranded by himself, likely inside of a mountain for unknown purposes.

Which meant.

“It’s time to bust this place!”

Drawing on his minions’ mana again through their connections, Will felt his body grow stronger. His vision became sharpened and his hearing increased in range.

Pushing down hard with his legs Will did the normal thing any reincarnated protagonist would do in this situation, he did a body charge at the closest wall.

‘Time to feel the BURN!!’

Will was also ignoring this annoying little voice in his head that went, “WAIT WAIT! There is nooooo way you have the strength to smash through STONE WALLS dude! Chill and think about it! Hell even if you could, it is a terrible idea! What if the entire mountain crumbles on us?”

To that annoying little voice, the rest of Will was like, “Shut up dumb voice! I’m in a FANTASY world man! Take that dumb “common sense” and shove it! Who the hell would believe that our Earth version “common sense” works here?”

And so Will was able to easily convince that dumb voice in his head that – no, he wasn’t making a stupid mistake. For one, he was juiced up on mana! He could probably punch a stone wall and only get seriously injured! HA! This stone wall got nothing on him, plus in a fantasy world, earth type magic is always defensive. So running headfirst to do a body slam on the stone wall is definitely NOT a mistake.

‘Or that’s what I’ll say to myself once I crack a few bones. I totally didn’t lose my cool because I’m claustrophobic or anything… HAHAHAHA…Ha…’

Will watched the grey stone walls get closer and closer to him, he could even see the different lines and shades of the rocks as he braced for the impact.

That never came.

Before he realized it, Will had charged right into fluffy heaven.

Huang Hei’s POV

“Alright here is your sect badge back; it has been reset to stop any automatic mission from happening again. NEXT!”

A extremely tired looking brown stag was sitting in the Sect Mission office, in front of him was Huang Hei who took the offered badge from the air. Behind him, he could see the line stretching far into the distance.

Slightly confused he asked the elder in front of him, “Elder EarthStag, has something happened? Why are there so many people here in this line? I thought this line was only for those who want to set up their sect badges.”

The stag gave him an annoyed look, “Look kid I know this might be hard for your brain to comprehend but maybe you can see that HUGE line behind you and figure it might not be the best idea to hold it up?” Before waving a hoof at him as a gust of wind blew Huang Hei out of the building and far into the sky.

‘Huh? When did the elder known for his benevolence turn into a pain in the ass?’

As he flew in the sky Huang Hei tried to think of ways that he might have somehow offended Elder EarthStag, but he just couldn’t come up with anything.

Hell Huang Hei barely stayed in the sect most of the times! He was either off doing sect missions or helping out the hive. Although basically they were equivalent since he had to leave the sect anyways for both of them, so where could he find the time to piss off an elder?

‘Um… did we have that huge hole here before? I may be out most of the time, but I could have sworn that was where the elders gathered for their important meetings. Weird…maybe I have been gone for too long a time and am behind on things. Well regardless I should return back.’

Turning into his true form, Huang Hei causally twitched his wings to upright himself before turning and flying towards the outskirts of the sect where his residence is.

While flying, it occurred to him, ‘I just realized I don’t know where that…child was taken to. Hopefully I’ll never have to see him again.’

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

“Here dear, put this one on! It will go wonderfully with that beautiful blue hair!”

Will tried to control his trembling as he watched the truck sized centipede in front of him pull clothing out of thin air and force him into playing the dress up doll.

He couldn’t just refuse because – well, bees are basically herbivores. They ate honey and flowers, from his limited knowledge pool. But from his limited recollection, he could have sworn that centipede were CARNIVORES. Who knew when this weirdly girly sounding giant bug would go from, “Ahh, you look tots adorbs” to “I’m like tots hungry and I see blue food in front of me”.

‘Where the hell did Hey-Hey ditch me? Is this hell? Also why does the giant bug feel fluffy?’

Will thought he must have lost his mind when the expected wall smash became a unexpected charge at a giant insect. If Will couldn’t see that there were still normal looking trees around him and that the plants looked normal-ish, as in they weren’t black and red colored; Will really would have thought Hey-Hey messed up somehow during their trip and killed all of them.

As for why Will thought he would go to hell if he died, well *cough* he did watch a lot of “exercise” and did a lot of “milking” during his time. He doubted he would feel comfortable in the “holy” place of heaven.

Plus he was atheist and hell made more sense to him, rather then the probably-super-drugged-up people who stayed in “heaven” feeling blissful forever. And ever…and ever…

Will shuddered; he could feel the centipedes’ eyes on him again after he changed. For some reason or another, it turned around when he changed in front of it. Will was trying to increase the time between changes so that he would have a longer head start when he started running like hell.

Alas, it’s a pity that his puny little legs wouldn’t make a meter before it would catch up to him. Their size differences was a tad too large a gap to cross using just “mana juiced-up power up”.

“Excellent! The dark blue subtly contrasts your bright blue hair! Who is the cutest little thing ever! You are!”

Will felt that this giant insect might be related to his “mommy”… they sure talked quite similarly. But that wouldn’t make sense right? His “mommy” was clearly… something not insect.

‘Right? I feel like she shouldn’t be a giant bug right? If so… does that make me part bug too? But then again if Hey-Hey is a giant bee… maybe everything in this world is some variation of a giant insect?’

Looking at the clothing on him, the fabric was made of almost silk-like materials giving it a really nice feeling, but when Will thought of the fact that it all came from a giant insect before being turned into clothing. Well it kind of dropped the “nice feeling” down a bit.

It’s like if someone learned that they were wearing something that was made up of processed humans, like say a giant insect that ate people for food and that food was then turned into silk. They might be a bit more inclined to, you know, toss that thing into a inferno.

Huge gusts of wind suddenly blew down from the sky, “Hello there Grand Elder LifeCentipede, what do you have there?”

“Oh hello there Elder WindFalcon! Lovely day isn’t it? I even found a little one wandering around! For now we’re just playing around until its parents show up! Seriously though, who would leave their little ones inside of a rather far away guest residence? Sometimes I wonder what the new generations are doing.”

Will looked up into the sky to see a giant – BIRD come down.

‘Alright, guess that idea of there only being giant insect just got wrecked by reality.’

As the giant bird landed nearby the giant centipede, Will can see that it wasn’t just a giant bird – it was a GREEN giant bird.

It seems he wasn’t the only one god messed up on when he did those color fill-ins, which kind of made him feel happier.

Though for whatever reason the giant centipede looked like any normal centipede Will saw back on Earth. In this case it was a giant fuzzy black colored one, just magnified a few thousands times bigger.

Will blankly looked at the two giants as he tried to figure out a way to get the F out of there, when suddenly the giant green bird on one side seemed to notice his shaking.

“Say Grand Elder LifeCentipede was this little one this quiet when you met it?”

The giant centipede seemed to think for a few seconds, “Now that you mention it, do you mean that this little one is afraid of me? Look at my memory; I always seem to forget that children fear this form. Although I thought he liked it considering that he basically jump-hugged me the instant we met.”

As it was speaking, both of them looked as if their bodies were collapsing on itself before turning into a human form.

Will’s jaw dropped.

‘WTF? I’m starting to think I might be more messed up in the head then I thought. When did giant insects and probably man-eating birds turn into hot women? Well… they do fall quite a bit far from ACTUAL good looking people. But they’re much closer then anyone outside of fantasy I guess.

By Will’s experienced eyes, he could judge every jug sizes instantly.

‘That one with the green hair appears to be a C at best. But the black haired one is definitely one of the rare Ds I had ever seen in both lifetimes. Man, they’re like two watermelons combined!’

Will had come up with the perfect system to judge sizes way back on Earth; it’s quite simple, compare the breasts being judged to a manga or anime character from a certain genre of the media.

He tries to have a norm so he mainly just uses characters from - you know, the best depicted realistic ones like that manga/anime that ends in DxD with the setting in a high school. But the one anime/manga he mainly uses has the acronym HSOTD, which he compares to everyone back on Earth. Will knew that when everything was lost, he could fall back on it and understand that the world was imperfect. He grew to learn that legends exist so that those few brave souls would set out to find it, even knowing it is futile.

On an entirely different matter, he never was able to find anyone on Earth with anything above size B that was natural…

However, the world hasn’t forsaken him yet! Will was finally able to find the obscure size above C in reality!

“Say Elder WindFalcon why is the little one crying now? I thought we look less threatening in this form?”

The green haired women next to her replied, “I think we must resemble his mother and…maybe he misses her a lot?”

Will thought differently, 'In what way does "mommy" resemble you? It clearly isn't in the breast department that's for sure.'

The black haired women opened her arms, “Over here little one! Do you want a huggy? It’s okay; we’ll find your mommy!”

Will look at the two misunderstanding duo with teary eyes, ‘Just when I was rejoicing the discovery of finding a real legend, I realized that they might be right about the intelligence to boob ratio. So does that mean “mommy” is like god-like smart?’

Recalling everything he had seen of her so far…

‘If she was a genius – I’ll eat my minions.'
