Wa… u…
Wak…..up….
Wake… up…..
Wake up!!
'….Serahill?'
Wake up, Kraner!!!
Kraner slowly opened his eyes from the screams echoing in his ears, he felt the lazy urge to close his eyes once more.
'oouu…'
But a pain lingered in his head, forcing him to wake up. He touched his throbbing head, only to feel a warm liquid on his palm. His eyes were still tired, a bit blurry but he could still see the red stain on his hand. as a drop of his warm blood, flowed down his arm.
"Blood?" He questioned; as his mind was still foggy like a dream but his memories started coming back, Serahill…., his fight…., his eventual death…, his mother….
"mother..?....shouldn't I be dead?" he questioned, his eyes still dizzy as he tried waking up.
[...Memories detected, Opening Lilith's gift.]
[Congratulations! You have been given a 'System']
"…what?.... Who is speaking?... Serahill, is that you?" he questioned, recognizing the cold tone of voice. The more he tried thinking, his head pained even more. So much so he felt like it was going to burst. "…it…hurts!" He said. Gripping his head with both hands.
Thud!
Listening to something falling, he looked at his side, where he could see someone with his blurry eyes, he rubbed them, trying to see clearly. Only to find something he never imagined he could ever see.
'...a human?' he questioned, looking at the woman, watching him with wide eyes, her mouth opened like she saw some miracle.
"…. Father!....he woke up, Father!!" she shouted, running away from the room.
"…what the fuck?" he again questioned, "where am I? am I in a dream?" he said, his hand still on his heavy head.
He looked around, as his eyes could see much clearer, a room made from concrete which he rarely saw. He looked at his side, his head entangled with many wires. And the wires bound with a screen, he had not once seen before.
Weirded out, he pulled the wires and strings from his head, intensifying the bleeding even more. he felt the pain increase even more but he had enough tolerance for such a pity agony. Gritting his teeth, he pulled out everything his head was connected to.
Even with a throbbing head, he threw away his sheets, standing from his now bloodied bed. Finally upended, He felt a bit unbalanced, his thin legs trying to sustain his standing body.
"why do I feel so weak…?"
He walked towards the only window present in the room, his red blood still dripping on his shoulder, and the cold floor. With a bit of difficulty, he opened the window with his thin hands. Feeling the dizziness from all his blood loss.
He felt the cold air on his pale face, feeling the warm blood on his head-turning cold. The smell of metal and a bit of smoke, polluting his nostrils. But his eyes opened wide, gazing at what was beyond the window.
"where the fuck am I?" he questioned in total confusion. Observing the many tall structures, blustering with lights. The many tiny humans, walking down on the glowing streets. With metal chariots flying high in the sky and some, floating near the pathways.
Thud!
"you are bleeding!!" somebody shouted from his back.
Kraner turned, but his dizziness, reached its limit, as he lost the feeling of his own legs and slowly his body.
"wha…"
He fell on the floor right after, the darkness closing on his eyes once more. And the last thing he could remember was the cold floor on his cheeks, as he finally passed out.

After a couple of hours..
"…So you are telling me, we are in 3022 A.D…. In a planet name Deunus….a planet of humans….and I am also a…"
"Human, you are also a human, Child." The priest-like man replied. His tone, like of a patient old man. "now, you are finally caught up to everything. Your memories will slowly come back." He said, standing up from his seat.
"now rest well….we won't disturb you for a while. If you have any further questions, you can call the sisters, or you can just search on your IIA. Don't worry, I already connected yours with the 'WAVE'. So, rest well, and take care."
With his final words, he went away, leaving Kraner alone. He wanted to ask more and more questions but the man looked busy, well, Why wouldn't he be? As he could use the art of healing. And the place he was staying now. Called the healing center. Of course, there would be more people like himself, wanting that man's attention.
"I thought, only those fucking angels could heal but, humans aren't too bad…..wait, I am also a human now too….haha."
He again looked at his hands, feeling the blood coaling within, his heart beating like a living person, his nose and mouth breathing air. "I am really alive, aren't I?" he commented. Laying back in his bed. He was still dazed, about how his mother made this happen, he knew she was a powerful being, but not so much prevailing, that she could bend space and time. And also gifting him a present no less.
"Are you still there Serahill?" he asked. As a sphere of the white ball appeared before him, out of nowhere.
[I am always here..] she replied, her sound, cold as ever.
Kraner sighed, listening to the uncaring voice, but that wasn't his focus right now, what took his main attention was that his mother had gifted him not just her, but a 'system' as well. A system which lucifer told him, the son of Eternity himself, told him about. The rare utility, which was considered the peak of science and magic combined. Discovered in the age of strife by mortals. But this technology was said to be lost when the mortal realm reached its extinction. But he knew the truth as a few beings like his mother and Lucifer, held it in.
"from his information. This gave the mortals to rival even the demi-gods….sweet!... oh my mother! I love you so dearly."
But there were more amazing things happening, He wasn't delighted because of a device that had infinite possibilities. He was typically excited about his new life. A life filled with many people and races, where the infinite universe was beaming with life.
And from the many ancient books he read, he was sure. "this life will surely be more exciting than my previous life ever was. I may no longer have my powers, but this, this is all I need. A world, full of endless possibilities.
The power, I will have it, the riches, I will have it, the many beautiful women, I will have them all. My new life begins now!!" He bellowed.
Knock! Knock!
"excuse me, can you not shout. There are other patients here as well." Said a sister beyond the door.
Kraner quickly stayed shut, going inside his sheets. A bit cringed out from his own behavior. "….sorry.'
"…..first of all, let's just figure out who I really am." He said, searching for a gadget name IIS which the old man told about. "if he is right, this consists of my identity and all of that crap."
Touching his left wrist, he finally saw the small bracelet, latched on his skin. He didn't know he was wearing anything until he saw it. It looked metallic with a small screen at the top.
He curiously touched the small shade, as another screen popped right above, matching his eye level, and its size which looked right enough that he could see everything within the screen, without any neck movement.

"Hmmm….no name, and I am just a 16 years old boy. And why isn't my intelligence showing? Is this a glitch of some kind? And what are ember scores, it's also blank?" he commented.
He focused on the picture up top. Silver hair and blue eyes, a face that looked like he had no food to eat for ages. "….well, I am not ugly…" He commented.
He slid the screen, many small boxes appearing one by one. some looked funny, some had stripes. "what the fuck are these?...oh it opened, wow, what are these? Videos? and some videos are saying it's live….
.

After 6 hours, at night time.
"hahahaha….that's funny as hell…Humans are such idiots...wait, what's the time?....what!!! It's 2 pm!!…six hours just went by like that!?" he complained.
He quickly shut his IID off. A bit scared of what just happened. "damn....these things are dangerous."
If he could take out the bracelet, he would do it right then and there but the healer said, it's the imperial rule to wear them at 24 hours straight.
"…..but, now I know about this world a bit. Many ancient books I read in the past….or the future, Coe relents with the past eras, making sure that it's the same timeline. In the future, the era of war, the era of strife, the era of demigods. Everything will happen…. And soon, the extinction….…. why am I thinking too deep? It's millions of eons later. Too much 'wave' messes your head." He said, massaging his healed head a bit. "All I need to be careful is about the Hierarchy, as even in this modern era. Kings and queens still rule the infinite space."
"There should exist governments according to the book of politics which I read seventy years before." He said to himself. "there is almost every information on the 'wave' so I can check it later. But I have little by no info about myself." He complained, sliding the screen once again, many new applications coming into his view. "…..My notes?"
curious as to what it was. he opened it right away. Starting to read what it had stored. It didn't take him a minute of time to read all 61 pages of what was written. His eyes, speeding through all the words in milliseconds.
After reading the final words of the diary. He closed the IIS, with a bit of heavy heart. Leaning back on the soft pillow with a sign. "haaaa….that's explains a lot."
