(MC POV)
In a underground cavern, in a certain Cavity.
I opened my eyes it was darkness all around me. currently I was lying on the ground on my back facing the ceiling, I lying there for who knows how long just staring at the ceiling.Then, My first thought was?
what is this place, it was dark and eerie and cold but ... how do I say this?
It doesn't felt that way, it felt warm. The ground i was lying on did feel cold but the darkness embracing me felt quiet warm, like a mother cardeling and embracing her newborn child. The atmosphere was quiet serene and peaceful.
After some time I set up using my hands. looking around, though the darkness enshrouded the whole area i can still see clearly. The uneven ceiling, the ragged walls, the cold and flat ground I was sitting on I could see and feel everything clearly, and when I turned to my right, there was a small opening in the cave and I saw something new in this ghostly and quiet atmosphere. I just stared at it for who knows how long, lost in my own thoughts.
'I don't know who I am, Where I am, What I am doing in dark place, well I do know what i am doing here since I was born here literally'.
How i was born, I don't know but I do know that I've been in this cave for a really long time, like really really long, and only just a few hours or maybe a few days ago did I became conscious of my surrounding. I don't even know what I am
' A magical beast, A humen, A sprit, or A demon' and how do I know these things... well I just do.
I was just born like that, with knowing all that I mean, you can't go and ask someone one why you were born like the way you did, that's just stupid. There are some jumbled or fragmented memory in my mind. It is quiet hard for me to understand or compherend them, but as long as I see something and I have a record of them in my mind I'll know what that particular thing is.
'Ahh.. yes, it is called inherited memory or something of the sorts'
Now when I saw something new here I instantly knew what it was, It was a pond of light blue liquid.
"Ah. What do we call it " I mused as I got up and haded towards it.
"Hmm. Yes, I know... it's water. Right" I said to no one in particular as I reached the pond, I crouch down and scooped up a handful of the crystal-clear water in my hands from the pond reflecting the dim, ethereal glow of bioluminescent fungi clinging to the rocky cave walls, casting intricate shadows on the water's surface. The scene is bathed in a soft, otherworldly light, creating an atmosphere of tranquility and hidden wonde
As I stared at the crystal-clear water in my hands I knew that if I drink this water it would help me grow stronger because of the high concentration of magical energy in it. So, that is what I did I drank it in one gulp. The good things was that the water was not poisoned, he can only sense that the water has high magical energy density, he can't tell if the water was harmful or poisoned or not but so in the future when he learn about the existence of poison element what would his reaction would be when he remember this day, Would be quiet a marvel to see.
It tasted quiet good, so I drank a good amount of crystal-clear water from the pond. Anyway the pond is quiet big like three to four meter in diameter and about a meter deep radiating an ethereal and otherworldly glow.
After drinking the water, I stood up and I can feel the magical energy in it being absorbed in my body making me stronger. it was a unique and mysterious felling as if connecting me to something ethereal and profound, adding an air of mystery and tranquility to the scene. So I just stood staring at the crystal-clear water. The water itself shimmers with a subtle, otherworldly light, reflecting the warm ethereal glow of bioluminescent fungi clinging to the rocky cave walls realeshing the feeling of peace and becoming stronger.
Then I turned around to see the opening leading out of the cave,but before leaving I took a last glance at the pond, and that was the first time I saw the reflection of myself in this serene pond of water as smooth as a mirror.
He was naked top to bottom totally nude, his hight is about 1.8 meter tall with skin as dark and smooth as an obsidian jade, exuding an aura of mystery, His eyes are a captivating golden hue, reminiscent of a blazing sun, radiating a fierce intensity, white hair cascading down to his shoulders like ethereal threads, shimmering softly in the eerie and abyssal Darkness.
"So this is... how I look " I mused as I stared at my reflection in the spiritual pond crystal-clear water for quiet a while.....
when I reached the cave entrance and looked outside I was left breathless.
There in the dark and eerie atmosphere of this underground cavern, this was the first time I saw something like this, just hundred meters ahead was a four legged beast burning in flames casting a soft and ethereal glow on the walls all around it. It was my first time seeing something other than darkness in this ghostly cavern.
So shocked was I That I didn't even realize that the beast was looking at me with a predatory glint in it's eyes, only realizing that the beast was looking at me when I felt the heat of the otherworldly frames on my skin.
When I again looked at it and our eyes met I knew I was fucked.
