An endless amount of elation couldn’t stop from bubbling up inside Cain’s mind. He could barely feel the jumbled-up sensations coursing within him as his eyes were utterly enraptured by his current scenery.
No longer was Cain in some random, old cave. He was now in the most luxurious room he ever saw. This room alone looked thousands of times better than any rich mansion back on Earth.
Everything about this room had an otherworldly feel about it.
To the numerous lustrous gems decorating the shiny golden painting walls. Or the abundance of artistically crafted designs that resembles something of ancient Chinese dragons to Cain.
It all was phenomenally breathtaking.
Moreover, this room was quite spacious. Far more spacious than any master bedroom in a regular house. This room alone looked perfectly fitted for a young noble person or a Prince possibly.
The only thing that slightly confused Cain was a set of modern electronic devices just several feet away from his bed.
When he squinted his eyes on them, Cain found them to be similar to T.V back on Earth. Although whatever material was used here appeared as more futuristic and high-tech.
Focusing off the room’s design for a moment, Cain decided to inhale a quick whiff of the air.
“Hmm….Oh?! No doubt about it!” A bright light swirled within Cain’s eyes as he felt his entire body tingle.
Even the air here was simply otherworldly.
Just one quick inhale of it, and Cain could feel the scramble sensation within his body relax a bit. This kind of pure air quality would be simply impossible to find on Earth.
In fact, everything in this room Cain deemed would be impossible to find on Earth.
With everything Cain already knows, he arrived at one swift conclusion.
‘Yes! I did it…. I’m in the domain of Gods!’
Relying on his knowledge, Cain was only assuming he landed in a place similar to the higher realms in those Wuxia or Xianxia novels. After all, the book did say it would take him specifically towards the Domain Of Gods.
Of course, this should mean he’s anywhere in some Mortal level lower plane.
But whether this was the higher realms or not, undoubtedly he was transported to another world! And upon this wonderful realization, Cain immediately got serious.
In a dangerous world like this, he would need to have the strength of a powerful expert to be as free as the wind.
To accomplish this, Cain was highly aware of all the hardships, bloodshed, and death he would need to experience. And none of these thoughts frighten or even intimidated Cain in the slightest.
‘First off, though, let’s see where exactly I am at.’ After taking a couple of minutes to gain his bearings, Cain felt fine enough to at least walk.
He wasn’t at one hundred percent, but it was enough to talk and walk without getting distracted.
However, before Cain could get out of his bed, he heard the door to his room crack open. At first, the door went slow until about halfway, it flung open with a loud bang.
“Brother!”
A loud yet sweet womanly voice flowed into Cain’s ears. Just from hearing the voice alone, Cain felt an instinctive warmth swell in his chest.
Before Cain realized what he was doing, he already snapped his head towards his doorway.
The feeling of warmth and familiarity intensified when staring at the young woman standing in his doorway.
This beautiful young woman had the graceful charm of pure sunlight, making her seem friendly to approach.
Down to her hypnotic abyss-like black eyes, curvy yet slightly petite figure, and rosy red lips, anybody could be lull into her sunshine charm. Her most eye-catching feature was the jet-black ink waterfall of hair that flowed down all the way to her knees.
Her long flowing black hair almost seemed like it had a life of its own as it excitedly sprang up in an unkempt manner. Complimenting her entire look, she wore a long beautiful black dress that held dragon symbols on it.
No doubt about it, this young woman was a true beauty. But more than her beauty, Cain was stunned by an entirely different feeling.
Just from looking at her, Cain felt so close to her. It was as if he knew her for years despite only seeing her for today.
At the same time, within his mind, flashes of images of this young woman began to resurface. Cain wanted to talk, but he simply didn’t know what to say.
It all felt too confusing.
However, before Cain could think upon anything, the girl had suddenly dashed right over to him!
Cain blinked his eyes for a moment. Despite being a delicate-looking maiden, this girl’s speed was fast. Faster than most athletes back on his Earth.
And when Cain reopened his eyes, he suddenly felt a soft sensation take hold of him.
All in just a second, the young girl already had her arms tightly wrapped around Cain, pulling him into a tight hug!
Immediately Cain was enraptured by her heavenly scent and comforting warmth. Everything that was previously confusing his mind relaxed as he let himself melt into this young woman’s warm embrace.
At the same time, however, Cain also felt a bit mystified by this situation.
On pure instinctive sensation alone, Cain gathered that this young woman is undoubtedly his sister.
There was an irresistible pull coursing within his veins the longer he stayed glued to this girl’s soft arms. And while Cain was appreciative for this warmth, even for him, he didn’t expect to meet with another person upon awakening.
He thought he would have at least a few minutes or so to gain his bearings since he’s just sleeping in his room.
Before Cain’s thoughts could derail further, he suddenly felt the young girl’s grip on him tighten up. With how tight she’s holding, it was almost like she was afraid that Cain would let go of her and go back to sleep.
“Mnnn….Cain! You were asleep for three whole days! I’m sorry for letting this happen; I should’ve been more careful of our damn Elder siblings. But, thankfully….thankfully, you’re awake.”
The young girl’s concern-filled tone sent a bundle of warmth throughout Cain’s entire body.
This level of care and concern….it reminded him of that caring person in his previous life.
And the more he felt warm by this girl, Cain soon realized he should be addressing her by name.
Because of the flashes of foreign yet familiar imagery in his mind, Cain assumed that he’s receiving memory from the body he transmigrated into. He read about events like this in all types of stories.
So focusing his mind, Cain concentrated explicitly on this caring girl hugging him. And without even having to search for in his mind, he received his answer quite quickly.
Slowly bringing his arms up to caress his sister’s soft, long black hair, Cain told her, “Kali sis….it’s great to see you when I’m waking up. But, sorry if this sounds weird….were you the only one taking care of me? My mind….it’s a bit fuzzy after these three days.”
In all honesty, Cain felt every fiber of his body telling that Kali can be trusted. It was almost like there was an invisible bond between them that pulled them so close together.
Although, Cain could tell this is probably just his body’s previous owner’s lingering attachment to Kali.
But within just several seconds, Kali had already made a considerably favorable first impression for Cain. He could just hear that Kali is incredibly sincere
Moreover, Cain needed answers about his current situation, and Kali seemed to be his perfect ticket for it.
“Of course I was taking care of you. Really, I barely left your side besides going out to get food or any other stuff.”
Kali spoke while affectionately rubbing her cheek on Cain’s face. She was so intimate and affectionate without any shame at all.
Cain could appreciate a quality like that, and feeling her soft face on his was a pleasant experience.
Focusing past her actions, Cain did find Kali’s words a bit worrisome. Keeping up his slightly delirious act, Cain asked next, “I see….uhmm….seriously sis, my mind is just too scrambled. Just what the hell happened to me before I slept for three whole days.”
Before answering, Kali pulled back from the hug and donned a pondering expression. Admittedly there was a certain grace surrounding Kali as she briefly got lost in thought.
Cain took a moment to appreciate a charming sight like this while patiently waiting for her response. Although, he didn’t have to wait long.
In just a couple of seconds, Kali’s expression turned increasingly bitter. Then, a sharp glint began to surface within her eyes as she began to speak.
“Alright, let’s see….three days ago, I’m not entirely sure why but Eldest brother and sister sought us out. They gave us a drink, claiming it would make our bodies so incredibly strong, and they were vehemently backed up by our Dragon Alchemist here. At that time, Father requested me so I couldn’t stay by your side. But….I did see you drinking whatever they gave us before I left.”
After she finished explaining, Kali suddenly furrowed her eyebrows. She kept her attention dead set on Cain, taking great notice of any slight potential differences on him.
Before Cain could question her intense gaze, Kali asked first, “Speaking off….do you feel any different?”
Cain seriously thought it over. Even though some time has passed since he awoke, the scrambled sensations within his body and head still permeated.
But there was one thing Cain realized at this moment.
Just from the brief snippets of Kali’s words and actions, he could guess there’s some hidden ploy stewing about here.
When Kali first entered the room, she let out a curse against their Elder siblings, making it seem like this isn’t the first occurrence.
Moreover, within high-class, powerful families, internal strikes have a possibility of happening. Especially in the novels Cain read about. Ploys by the Eldest siblings would be a common occurrence in those stories.
But before Cain went down this rabbit hole, he first asked Kali, “I’m not exactly sure on what to feel….everything feels so….jumbled up? Do you have a pill for this?”
Kali dutifully nodded, reached into her pocket, and pulled out a sparkling white color pill.
Immediately when she pulled it out, an incredible fragrance drilled into Cain’s nose. His eyes widened a bit as he already felt better just being in this pill’s vicinity. It was like his body was being bathed in a refreshing warm stream of a spring pool.
So these are those fable healing pills! Cain’s already high expectations were blown out of the water.
An amused grin curved up Kali’s lips as she watched Cain’s surprised reaction. Right then, a teasing glint crossed her eyes as she then said,
“Ok, brother. Just like we usually do. Open wide!”
“Huh-Mnh?”
When Cain let out a grunt of confusion, Kali decided to take that opportunity to toss the pill right into his mouth!
At first, Cain was surprised as he didn’t even get the chance to properly swallow it. But instead of choking, Cain actually felt a burst of vital energy all throughout his body.
In just mere seconds, Cain felt the previous jumbled sensation quickly clear away.
And as they cleared up, Cain started to feel another type of energy flowing within his body. His eyes lit up brightly as this energy felt vastly different and similar.
This energy was pure unfathomable power!
