BXBX NOVEL Chapter 9 No Pain No Gain
It was like every bone of my body was crushed before it grew again.
I screamed in agony.
The few crows scaving around flew away terrified by my inhuman scream.
The pain was driving me insane.
I lost consciousness several times and have already lost count of time.
Only my cries of pain echoed in the cursed temple. It really deserved that name.
I could hear Jarvis speaking but my mind couldn't register his words.
It hurts.
It freaking hurts!
I coughed blood again and again.
I rolled on the mud and my own blood.
Bloody tears fell from my eyes.
Why?
Why?!
WHY?!
I was asking myself, like a broken record, why the hell I came here? Yeah, I wanted to become strong, but what was that?!
If I had known it would hurt like that, I would have managed with my weak body for the entire game.
I saw in the game, Edward suffering during his death pact, but what Edward endured was fluffy compared to me.
Yeah! I'm currently angry at a freaking game character for my suffering!
"ARGHHHHHH!"
N-No-
I can't-
Someone…
Please…
Help me…
….
How many hours had gone?
I don't know, but I stopped asking for help since no one would come anyway.
Maybe Edward's aunt, but she didn't know I was here.
Only Jarvis was there but he could just speak.
My body convulsed again.
With the amount of blood I lost, it was just a matter of time before I died anyway.
A little smile appeared on my pained face.
Am I really going to die pathetically on the first day of my reincarnation?
If I was the protagonist, I'd have the famous plot armor, but now I could really feel that I was dying.
[Edward!]
Ah.
Jarvis.
Still shouting at me to get a grip.
At least I wasn't alone in my death.
…and she flashed in my mind.
Ephera.
Her long black hair was tied in princess style. I was the one who would tie her hair like that every day.
Yeah I was a simp!
But she was really gorgeous like that!
"AAAAAAAAAHHHH!"
Looks like I will join you soon, Ephera.
[Edward! The screen!]
"Sh-Shu-AHHHHHHH!"
[SCREEENNN!]
The screen?
I looked at the screen before with my teary vision.
[Congratulations! New Title obtained!]
[Lucky Fatty!]
The fucker who did that I wil-
"AHHHHHHHHHH!"
-Bam!
I banged my head on the ground as a means to get myself together and looked again at the screen.
[Do you want to get the rewards?]
I opened my eyes wide and raised my weak finger. It took all my remaining energy to click on YES.
Now give me a healing potion.
I beg you.
[You can choose a weapon!]
Go to hell.
[What weapon do you want?]
Go to hell b*tch!
[Since you are not answering, we will choose a random weapon for you!]
As if I'm in condition to speak!
I wanted to kill the bastard behind the messages but I couldn't.
My consciousness started to slip away again, but this time I really felt that I wouldn't open my eyes anymore.
Whatever. Two shitty lives.
…
...
...
"AH!"
I woke up with a jump.
What happened?!
I looked around me. It was dark.
"!"
Water.
WATER!
I was starving and thirsty.
I stood up but I fell on the ground as soon as I tried to walk.
I looked at my legs, they were shivering.
Without choice, I started to crawl my way out of the temple.
There was a small pond near the temple, the water was probably good.
No, I didn't care about that anymore.
I crawled like that for twenty minutes and reached the pond.
The water was blue and seemed proper.
Yes!
I crawled and let myself drown.
I drank, drank and drank.
I was living again.
Amazing.
Never had I felt like that when drinking water.
I also washed my body, which was dirty and bloodied.
It seems that I lost around ten kilograms. I was still really fat but less than before.
After swimming for around an hour in the pond, I sighed.
"Why aren't you speaking?"
I asked my first companion since I landed in this world.
[You needed some time alone]
Jarvis answered.
Well, he was right.
I felt so much pain in my whole body for several hours that my sense of pain numbed.
"How long was I in that state?"
[Two weeks.]
"..."
So, for two weeks, I was crying like that while suffering hell?
As to how I was still alive after two weeks of hell without eating and drinking, I knew the probable answer.
"Why aren't you speaking?"
[I am her-]
"Not you, Jarvis."
I cut off Jarvis and closed my eyes.
Yeah, that new presence in me.
[<Oh, you noticed me?>]
A new voice, a woman's voice rang in my mind.
[<Since when?>]
"Now."
I smiled. It was hard to not feel such an aura, at least for me.
[<You have sharp senses>]
She said in an amused tone.
I smiled confidently at her words but it didn't last long.
[<Why are you fat though?>]
"Got something against me being fat?! If I wasn't fat I'd have died and you wouldn't have found a receptacle!"
I growled angrily.
First Jarvis and now her.
Fuck!
"Oh, my apologies, I didn't know you were so sensitive."
She giggled like those arrogant women laughing behind folding fans.
"..."
Seeing that I wasn't laughing, she coughed.
[<Let me introduce myself, I'm Cleenah.>]
"You are a Goddess?"
[<Indeed.>]
She said in a proud tone.
"But you were stuck in that temple though."
I asked 'innocently'.
[<You are rude to a God, apologize.>]
"Like hell I will apologize to a b*tch, insulting my physics!"
[<B-B*tch?! You misunderstood my words! I just thought you'd athletic->]
"I see, then you are a clumsy b*tch."
[<Enough! I will kill y->]
"Jarvis mute her."
[I can't mute a Goddess.]
"Then what can you mute?"
I asked.
[<H-He-!>]
[Nothing.]
Figures. My Jarvis has nothing to do with the famous Jarvis accompanying my favorite Superhero.
I sighed and cupped water in my hands before splashing my anemic face.
[<Listen m->]
"Cleenah."
[<Yes?! Finally!>]
She said and probably sulked.
A faint smile appeared on my face as I pictured a sulking Goddess.
"You are the one who kept me alive for two weeks, right?"
[<Of course! Ungrateful man! You should th->]
"Thanks."
I thanked her wholeheartedly.
I really thought I was going to die and for the first time, I was scared to die.
I didn't want to die.
[<...>]
Cleenah seemed suprised.
[<Hmpf. I didn't do it for you. I needed a good receptacle to get out of this place.>]
"Even so. Thanks."
There was a moment of silence before she replied.
[<You're welcome Amael.>]
