Chapter 2

I am in a different world now and yes I feel weak. I was wrong to think that beastmen are only a myth.

Who thought I would be a snake? But wait, I have beautiful smooth scales. Wow I would never have been able to touch a snake. But hey, now I am one so I am fine with it. I have fangs too. I feel like a vampire. Hehe. Why do I have such long hair? Woooohh it touches the floor and it's the same colour as my scale.

I have got to keep my memories from my past life. That's why I am in an adult's body. If I were reborn as a child, it would be weird having the mentality of an adult with a child body.

Inside the cave that I am in, no movement is supposed to happen. Otherwise, the leopard nearby comes running into the cave for a hunt.

I've read a lot of transmigration stories and I'm glad that didn't go in vain. It's quite thrilling how I have my past world memories (which hasn't given me any headache as of now) and I also get to experience a totally different world. My hair just amazes me, it's silver on the top and black on the bottom and real fluffy on touch...

The body I'm inside right now is that of a snake beastwoman who dies having a heart attack on her first day of wedding after her groom cheats on her with her cousin.

Wait… I see something approaching towards me.. What is it? Wait…..is….is that a leopard.. Oh my god it's a leopard!!! IT'S A LEOPARD..LEOPARDDD!!!!

Maybe I should not have been speaking to myself that loud.

"Don't come near me please..... SHU SHU get away from here.. Please go away"

The fact that animals here are triple the size of that on earth makes it even scary. It had a bloody jaw and fierce look in its eye.

Woooh it's coming straight towards me. Why…?

Suddenly there's a blur in my vision. Something incredible seemed to be happening.

Seems like some shape-shifting is about to happen. Isn't there supposed to be a fog or something? Why are it's organs twisting so much? I feel like vomiting. Wait….he is naked too!! Well that doesn't seem to matter.

The leopard then changed into a person. I completely forgot that this is actually a beastman's world and anything is possible here…Thank god the human form is similar to humans on earth.

Well this leopard is the bastard husband. Just seeing him is irritating enough.

"I am really sorry but I am in love with both of you. Please don't blame her. I can't live without the both of you...please don't leave me"

I used to see many dramas in my past life and I have always hated these types of people the most. And ugh these same old scripted excuses of cheaters.

I had died because of some stupid cheater like this in my past life and here I meet another one. He doesn't even know that she is already dead and he has been talking to another spirit the whole time.

I can tell from what I feel in her heart that the girl really liked this man. But unfortunately there's no scarcity of scums. You find them even when in another world.

"I was going to tell -"

"Shut up, I don't care. I want no connection with you anymore. I'll just leave"

As soon as I said this, a small thread that was connecting both our bodies snapped. That was unexpected but still beautiful.

Thank goodness, both parties get to decide when to leave the marriage. This way I can walk out whenever I want to.

"Don't no please! don't go! please! "

As if I would listen to this stranger who bravely tells his wife that he cheated on her. How unfair would it be to her if I forgave him..

The beastman comes to catch my hand which catches me off guard. I am filled with rage.. Who does this naked bastard think he is touching now?

Something changes suddenly… I can see a reflection of myself in his eyes.. I seem to be showing my shiny black scales.. And when I look at myself.. It's even more astonishing… His eyes seemed to admire them though.. What is happening??

My lower body turns into a long tail.. Waow they're beautiful.. Something inside me tells me that my tail was the reason why he fell for me.

"What's going on with your eyes.. they're all black.. Are you okay ? What is going on?"

I don't know myself.. How could I answer him?

BANGGG!!

The man is thrown far away with a force more powerful than any wave I'd seen before

".. Wh..y?"

"Why? Are you seriously asking me that? After cheating on me straight away, you want me to accept you still? Well NO!"

"but.. But she said it was OK"

"If she is OK then go with her. I am not her and I am not okay with you!"

"But why?.. In my race everyone has more than one wife.. "

"Did you not promise me that I would be the only one you would have?! And this was something we both agreed on !"

"I thought you were joking.." his sound gets fainter with every word

"Well yay? Ok then now keep joking with your other lovers for the rest of your life!"

I walk away, never turning back.

"Don't..go.. Please….I WAS WRONG!! PLEASE FORGIVE ME!"

'I feel a little sad but why am I feeling this way?.. Oh it's not me it's her.. Are you still here don't worry that man didn't deserve you'

As I say this I feel a little better and a little shy.

'Don't be sad it's alright now I won't have contact with someone like him.. You should hurry to reincarnation you will find someone who is worth you Next time'

I feel something leaving my body, I feel a little pain inside but I hope she finds her happiness soon.

_____

This world is very different from the world I come from but yet somewhat similar. I've known these animals before but here they can turn into humans. Hence, they're beasts.

The beasts here don't have any names. And the astonishing part is that those from the same clan can understand each other without verbal communication. They have some kind of mental communication skill.

Orphans are not accepted by the clan because it is thought that they are no longer the same as their clan.

The body I had entered into, of the snake beastwoman, was also of an orphan. So, she had to live a separate life, away from her clan.

The cousin that the bastard spoke of is not really a cousin in a real sense but someone from the clan I would also have been in if my parents had been alive. The members of the clan do not get married as it is seen as a form of humiliation to themselves.

Outsiders like the snake beastwoman could get married but only once as they have a symbol in their body even after leaving their partner.

(A.N:now I will refer to Simu as the snake beastman)

-------------------

Now that I left the marriage I don't have to get married again! Yay!! It is a win-win situation for me. Thank god! I really don't have to stay with that man. If I had to, either I would have exploded out of rage or I would have killed him myself.

Haah! snakes were said to be very revengeful should I take revenge for this body...

Naah I am too lazy. I am getting out of this place. I don't like it.

I wonder if my guide could help me.

'Say what do you want?'

"OMYGOSH DON'T SCARE ME LIKE THAT.."

'.. Speak in your head...look you scared all the birds'

'Why are you speaking in my head, can you not come in front of me?'

'No. Guides are not allowed in this world. This world is ruled by spirits. The fact that I am talking to you is also only because of your special case'

'um I want a new place where I don't have to see anyone'

'ok'

'.. That was easy'

'.. I am busy don't call me again'

"oh ok "

I don't need to go back to the clan and my guide actually told me a secret place which is comfortable to live in. So it's all good. I wonder if they will accept me. Oh well! we will see when the time comes.

This place seems to be more like the Paleolithic (or Old Stone Age). There seems to be no concept of civilization here. Everyone hunts for a living and there is no concept of currency. It's a time where either you are a prey or the predictor. Thankfully I am a snake beastwoman. If I were a rabbit beastwoman I would have already been eaten by that leopard.

But why does it take ten days to reach there? I wish I could fly.. Wait, I can't fly but I can swim. Yes I can go through the river and the stream is soft. I can sleep there as I float away. That's all good.

Or so I thought.

(memories of the snake beastman)

I sat down with my now new husband as we finally arrived at our cave. We held each other's hands as we touched our noses against each other.

"Oh dear husband, you know, although no one loves us, we can be there for each other. Don't worry, the two of us alone can create a good future for others just like the beast god"

"I have something to tell you before that.. Promise me you won't get mad"

"Why will I ever get mad at you.. You're funny sometimes"

"I broke our promise… I know you won't get mad, it's just a small promise nothing else.. I swear.. So just listen to me ok "

"Now you're scaring me, just tell me first"

"... I got together with your cousin.. The one with the red scales.."

".. What.. What are you talking about.. I told you not to do that.. I thought you said only two of us will be together.. And why she used to bully me YOU KNEW THAT! WHYY?? WHY?? WHY..? "

"She is not like that.. I know I lied.. "

I started to yell but he kept apologizing. I started to feel pain in my chest and started seeing black spots. My breathing was slowly stopping while the man I thought of spending my life with kept praising another beastwoman. I feel myself falling towards the floor. That's when my husband catches me.

"I know you're tired dear, go to sleep. We will talk later, okay."

I must have been a moron to fall for him. I was wrong to think about being with him. Why did this happen..
