My body feels heavy.
I can't feel my legs...
I feel cold and thirsty.
Water... I need some water...
Is this really it?
Is... this how... I die?
I... I'm losing consciousness.
Finally... I can finally rid myself of this awful... miserable... lonely life...
No... It wasn't really awful.
Not after I got into my dream job after being unemployed for almost 3 years after graduation.
After giving up on women completely, I was able to find peace within myself.
My life was far far more happier and less depressing with absolutely no women involved with it.
I was making my parents happy serving my nation.
I... I didn't think I'd die this quickly.
I thought... I'd retire as an officer and use that money to have fun in my later days.
Travel, eat and enjoy life.
Give my parents a comfortable and happy life where they keep their heads high.
I mean... After my death they'll get a sum enough for them to have a lavish life.
So, it's fine... it's fine but...
Am... am I really going to die with nothing to my name? With nobody on my side to love me?
To show me affection?
Is this how it really ends?
... I... I don't want it.
I wanted... I wanted for someone to show up in my life and love me for who I am.
I wanted for them to show me affection and indirectly tell me that my life made their life meaningful.
That my life meant lot to them.
But, in the end... I'm going to be dead.
Without receiving 1 bit of affection.
No, I don't want this... I don't wanna die!
Noo... I'm losing strength in my body.
I'm slowly losing consciousness aswell...
This...
Really...
Is...
The...
End!
Goodbye Mom, Goodbye Dad, Goodbye Brother.
...
"Young master, Your Breakfast is ready."
Huh...
Where am I...
Why do I hear a women's voice?
What's this smell... It smells delicious.
I slowly opened my eyes to the sweet sound of the women.
And what met my gaze was the well decorated ceiling.
I thought to myself as I looked at the ceiling.
Am... I still alive?
I was about to jump in joy at the abrupt realisation.
Than stopped myself.
I was shot in the heart and the shoulder.
Not to mention the kidney aswell.
There was no way I'd survive the blood loss.
Most of all I was shot in the heart.
So... is this... a dream?
Why does my body feel so weak?
It doesn't feel like a dream.
It feels like that awful feeling when you took an afternoon nap and you just woke up.
I slowly started looking around as I met eyes with the women standing at the back.
Looking at me with concerned eyes.
I instantly wanted to ask who the beautiful women in the maid outfit was but I held it in.
"Young master, Your food is ready. Please get ready as you have to attend the entrance ceremony to the Academy."
Huh? Ceremony? Academy?
Also... what??? Young master? WHATT???
"Keep the food there, I'll have it while I get ready."
She bowed her head, and said 'yes' in a low voice as she left the room and than sighed deeply after she got out.
I slowly went to the delicious smelling food as I slowly took out the lid to see the contents.
I was someone who liked to eat alot of junk off and the like but never got an opportunity to due to my family being middle class.
After I finally ended up making a heck of a lot of money as an Army Officer, I wasn't allowed to have any outside food or junk food except for when I was on leave.
There were strict guidelines in place for us Officers.
But, looking at the food in front of me.
I cannot help but Lick my lips in anticipation.
But before that... I should brush my teeth and freshen up...
I somehow slowly started getting used to this as if it were me who was doing all this.
Than the next instant, I ended up looking at myself in the mirror and I freaked out.
Around 6 feet tall, jet black hair, dark circles in his eyes, looking very addicted to drugs and alcohol.
His face was almsot distorted due to excess of drugs and alcohol.
It was obvious, and I could now understand why I was feeling tipsy and weak.
It was because this fk was intoxicated.
I should freshen up and ask for some hangover medicine.
My head is killing me.
...
"Excuse me."
I peeked my head out of the bathroom as I called out the maid for before.
"Yes? Young Master."
"Can you get me some hangover medicine."
"Yes, Right Away!"
"Thanks!"
She looked at me weirdly as I thanked the women who looked like she was in her 50's.
Than some time later, someone knocked on the door.
"You can enter."
I said in a cheerful voice as I got ready to have my meal.
"Here's the hangover Medicine, Young Master."
"Thanks... I can't remember your name... what was it?"
"... It's Milia, Young Master Vade."
"Aah... Milia, I see. Thanks for the hangover Medicine."
"You are welcome."
"You can leave."
I said as I got ready to have my meal.
"Yes."
And so, after a long time I had the most delightful meal I ever thought I would.
After which I started feeling sleepy but decided to go down to check out this house that looked like a mansion.
A modern mansion if I had to specify.
The lights, the TV in every room, the electronic equipments everywhere.
When that maid called me young master... I'd thought that I was in some kind of a medieval setting but instead this was a very modern setting.
Technology has advanced quite abit.
Wouldn't that mean I have a mobile phone aswell?
I wonder if it's one of those big brands like Mango or 2 Plus.
While walking towards the entrance.
I saw milia, who was ready in the academy uniform I was wearing.
Gadda say now that she wore it, it feels somewhat familiar.
I can't put a finger on it but my face too... and her name and mine aswell.
They feel somewhat familiar.
Or maybe it's just me.
Anyway... let's talk to her.
"Milia, At what time does the academy begin?"
I asked her politely, to which she looked at me strangely as she answered.
"It's starts at 2 in the afternoon."
"I see..."
I said as I looked at the watch I wore.
I didn't quite like the design of the watch and since I seemed ultra rich I don't think I'll have to worry about buying a new one.
I wanted a smart watch while this was a very damn costly analogue watch.
I browsed through the internet on the laptop In my room and the options were pretty much the same as they were in my old world.
The names were a little different.
Mango was called Apple and 2 minus was called 1 plus.
There were other companies too but I was much more interested in these 2 brands since they were necessarily the best.
Well the 2 plus in my country felt better than the Mango co.
I'll just buy the 2 and see which is better in this one.
Anyway
"Will I be taken escorted there or do I take public transport?"
U asked milia as I was adjusting my tye.
"Ofcourse, you will be escorted there by me. I am your personal maid and I'll be there for you as a maid and as a bodyguard. Doing everything the master orders."
"I see... Thanks than! Shall we take our leave? Also, can you show me my bank card? I'd like to see what my current balance is."
"...Yes master. Right Away."
...
After some time,
I was sitting on the comfortable sofa as i looked at the servants lined up one after another.
They looked rather pale... as if they haven't had alot to eat in the past few weeks.
Asbi was paying attention to their complexion... The bank statement book came in and the moment I looked at it...
"What the hell? Why is it empty?"
I asked her, looking flabbergasted.
"We... are out of funds sir... we have to wait until tomorrow for The Lord to transfer the next month's expenditure."
The problem wasn't that the transaction read 0.
The problem was the fact that they burnt up almost 50000 $ in a single month.
"How the hell did someone manage to bury up this much in a single month?"
I screamed at everyone.
They looked at me weirdly and than some glared at me angrily but everyone shut up, saying nothing.
As if on cue... I started remembering last night's memories.
And that was how I kept my head low and did not look at them.
Aah... there's a reason why someone managed to bury up this much money and that reason is...
Drugs and alcohol.
I am the fkin reason there ain't no money.
Now what?
"Alright... let's forget about that and concentrate on the important thing at hand. Is there enough fashion for us to pass by today?"
"... yes sir.".
What's up with the pause? What's up with everyone's stomuchs hurling weird sounds at the same damn time.
What's going on?
I instantly realised that people here haven't had something to eat in a god damn while.
I instinctively looked at milia as I asked her.
"Is there enough fashion to feed everyone here today?"
"Young master?"
"Is there?"
"... no sir, 2-3 people will still not have enough left. Even that is for just 1 meal."
"... I see."
Now what...
"Maybe I should just ask for father to send me the moneyb1 day earlier."
"You must be aware no Young Master? That if you ask hum for money now... he'll completely stop sending this house any money and he'll fire all of us in the process aswell."
There's such a thing?
What a pain!
"For now... just feed whatever is left amongst yourself. I'll see what I can do about the rest."
I said as I decided to go back to my room and look for my phone which has gone missing for a while.
"... where are you going Young master?"
"Aah... I'm going to look for my phone... haven't found it in a while now."
"If it's your phone than last night you left it in the bar and someone has stolen it. We found it from the thief and had to pay him a huge amount to get him back."
I see... you have an account of yourself.
Probably for the mansion.
"I'm sorry for the trouble I caused you than."
I said as I took the phone from her.
And, it was the latest model of Mango.
Mango 17 pro max.
Look at him buying the best of the best.
Well, that's to be expected from a rich guy.
Than I got a sudden notification.
[Entrance ceremony beginning in 2 hours.]
And than I reflexive clicked on it and got a weird option.
[Cancle booking - refund available]
I don't know what went over my head but I cancelled the booking instantly and soon enough
*ting*
[************* Transferred back into your account from Prestige Magic High]
What... The luck?
What is this amount for a fkin entrance ceremony?
"Well, we have enough money to feed the lot of you."
I said as I showed the insane amount of money that just got transferred into my account.
[2/3rd of the Ceremony fee has been deducted and you have been added into the Silver list of the Ceremony]
...
After I sat down for a bit and looked at my phone and all the seating arrangements I thought to myself.
Silver list? Anyway... it seems that a prestigious seat was removed and my money was transferred back.
And I got a position based on my academic ability.
I will be in the Silver division, out of the 5 divisions.
I got the top seat of prestigious Hall, in the entrance ceremony where all the rich and powerful kids gather.
While I was in the Silver group where The average gather.
There are around 5 of these divisions.
Copper, Bronze, Silver, gold and platinum.
I was in the Silver group.
What was even more surprising was the fact that 2/3 of the entrance fee was taken and yet I got so much back aswell.
It appears that I was the one who paid for it with the money my parents gave.
And that's why these guys were left starving.
I can't believe 2-3rd of it is gone but... Well I got the money in the nick of time and this is pretty much enough for 20 people to survive for a month.
"Young Master, the vehicle's ready."
"Ooh... than shall we go."
We got into the car together where I sat at the front with Milia as she started driving the lavish SUV which seemed to be from the famous WMB.
It's called B*W here tho.
Anyway... when is this dream going to come to an end...
