Chapter 2: Where am I?
Where am I?
Everywhere Steven looked he could only see darkness, only darkness.
A world of darkness shrouded Steven while intense suffocation attacked him at the same time.
Slowly the suffocation passed and he could breathe again. But the darkness was still there, he still could not understand where he was or what he was doing in such a place?
A stinging pain attacked him which caused him to sweat crazily. The pain had subsided after some time and he could think clearly again.
He was looking for a light source in this darkness and tried to move his body forward, but he found that his body was immovable like a stone. He was scared and could not understand why he was unable to move his body?
He was still trying to move when another spurt of pain attacked him, it was really unbearable. His mind went blank and he was trying to cope with this unbearable pain, the pain had turned much worse and Steven started suffocating due to it.
After a long time, Steven regained his breath and body movement. He started walking forward to find a direction. After an unknown amount of time, he found a small light in front and could not stop his legs to find out what it was.
After walking for some time he found the light source in front of him started to expand and he started walking faster towards it in hope to find an exit. Just after a moment of walking forward, a blinding light started to shroud everything, Steven had to close to stop the light.
When Steven thought that it was okay for him to open his eyes again, he slowly opened them but was greeted with a totally different sight one which he did not expect.
Duckford City First High School.
Student Dormitories - Boys (Common).
It had been some time since the Sun had risen and just like any other Dormitory, it was the same for the Duckford First High School too. The dorm was full of noises and young boys moving around in rush.
Today was the first day at school and all the freshers were in a rush because they had to attend the Initiation ceremony arranged for them which was within an hour. Though it was so noisy and rushed, there was one room where it was tranquil and bereft of all noises.
This was a small room in the frontal portion of the dorms occupied by one boy.
If someone could look inside then they would find that a young boy was sleeping inside in a weird posture. His head was placed fairly far from the pillow while his legs were hanging from the side of the bed. Even his pajamas were sticking to his body probably due to excessive sweat and there were some stains of blood in his upper body.
His eyes were still closed but with a sudden movement his eyes opened up. A pair of dark brown eyes could be seen whereas it felt more like black due to the darkness of the brownish shade. His eyes showed the confusion he had and he woke up completely seconds after it.
Just sitting up in his bed, you could see that he was still in a state of confusion. When clarity surfaced in his eyes, he started to observe the room he was in. The first thing that caught his eyes was a crystalline watch which was the only thing that was kept over a study table attached with the bed.
It was his first time that he saw a watch made of crystals. He thought that the watch may have been in possession of the owner of the room so he moved his eyes to the room again. The room was fairly small consisting of a bed, a study table, an armchair and a cupboard with a small mirror fixed at the front of it as the only available furniture.
Steven could only find one door in the room and this also proved that there was not a bathroom attached with the room. There was also a window near the bed just above the table, likely for lighting in the day time as well as some air.
Though he could not find any special thing in the room, this still did not answer him what he was doing here or where he was? To find out he had just stood up from the bed, but a sudden weakness attacked him and he felt wobbly. He sat down again and this time there was something else that occurred.
When Steven sat in the bed again, his mind grew blank for a sudden while his eyes looked like it was in a daze. This occurred because Steven was suddenly attacked by chunks of memories in his mind, though there was no pain there was a bit of shivering that happened to Steven. Steven's mind had directly been injected with lots of memories and in his daze, he was analyzing these memories and what they contained.
Steven was already preparing for the worst when he received the memories. He was a big fan of Web novels and had read a lot of reincarnation and transmigration novels during his obsession of them. The instant he felt memories were injected to him, he could fairly guess what might have happened.
Though one thing confused him, every web novel he read said that when memories were injected there would be immense pain, but today when he got the memories there was no pain, well what could he say.
The memories did give him a shock after some time. He had found out that he has transmigrated inside a sixteen-year-old boy also named Steven Willams, and that this world was not the world he was from. This was a world where cultivation was possible and even monsters and fierce beasts lived.
The information that Steven Williams of this world was an Orphan since the day he could remember anything and the truth of how this boy had died caused him to be sad and angry at the same time.
Steven Williams of this world was a diligent student and worked hard to finally gain star results in his Junior High to get admitted to DFHS with scholarship but who knew that the day he joined the school will be his last.
Steven Williams had lived his life in an orphanage where he used to share his room with seven others and now that he could live in school dorms he had moved in as soon as possible. He had joined the dorms yesterday and was fairly happy that he got his room for himself as it was a one person room.
Well sometimes fate is very cruel, Steven had gone to the cafeteria for lunch. And it was where he met Frank Walton a member of the Walton family and a couple of his underlings.
They had humiliated Steven in the worst of ways and called him the scum of the society and Frank had even commented that Steven and other orphans were the unnecessary garbage and should be cleared off from the better schools as they are there to only waste precious resources. Even his classmates from Junior High were laughing their asses off and humiliated him in-between Franks bullying. Steven had been a very calm person but could not take such insults.
He ran away from the cafeteria to his dorm room and cried in his bed for a long time. When he had cooled off somewhat, the anger and humiliation were still ingrained in him, this caused him to take a drastic measure. Steven decided to start his cultivation that instant. Though Steven was knowledgeable in most aspects and theories of cultivation, he was still far lagging in practical approaches of Cultivation.
He knew that the cultivation journey has to be started by Body Strengthening where the first level was to strengthen the skin using energon in the environment. Thus he took the risk of cultivation even without guidance and started to first feel the energon in nature and started absorbing it, but who knew that his effort to prove himself will land him into a cruel fate. His cultivation got deviated seconds after the start and a big impact was taken on his internal organs which gave away very soon leaving him in death's door.
This was when the soul of Steven of Earth had taken over the body, and the previous Steven's soul got merged with him. It could only be fate that had saved both though the dominant one being Steven from original Earth.
Steven had analyzed the memories and his eyes had regained the usual flavor. An angry, as well as sad expression, could still be observed in Steven's eyes after the memories had ingrained in him. Revenge was in cards.
