6 A Reunion Of Love, Pain And Fear.

After leveling up I was completely healed... not, I had regained my HP but my entire body was aching and the blood in my mouth is still there. Dragging my body out of the ditch where the wolf was and into the lush forest I was breathing raggedly. It's like having hit your head onto the table or anything for that matter unintentionally and then feeling all of that stinging. Just that compared to getting hit in the head, my entire body was hurting.

I feel like if it was her, she would already have passed out after this much pain. Owowowow, what now?! The foot got stuck? F*** THIS WORLD! EVEN THE REAL WORLD DIDN'T GET YOUR FEET STUCK UNDER ROOTS. Forcing my foot out from the root the pain became so unbearable that I was swearing under my breath. Begrudgingly forcing myself forwards, if it weren't for the threat of wolves I would have screamed ages ago.

My feet kept touching thorns, roots and even plants with needles on them. Each time they stabbed my body they would only reinitiate the pain to another level. Every single step was filled with pain and my judgment and thoughts were clouded. 'Don't tell me the switch is about to happen?'. Resisting something as well as walking forwards I somehow managed to reach the city. Seeing me the guards hurriedly came to me and helped me up again.

I laughed at how comical I looked. Not only was I carried by guards, but they carried me as if they were carrying a prisoner. It hurt so much that keeping myself awake at any moment was a literal miracle. When I came to the Village Chief's house the chief was elated to see me having completed the quest. "Miss Livy, you have a few guests here." My head was throbbing so much I couldn't comprehend what he said. "Guests?" The Village chief, smiling, let us inside and inside the living room three people, two girls and a boy were chatting.

Being carried into the room by the guards the other three instantly turned their heads towards me. I couldn't see exactly who they were, but I know who they are. "Hello, guys." Smiling as I received the hugs of Tarya, Lily and Bernard. Then passing out on the spot.

-???-

Opening my eyes, the entire world was black. "So, what do you think?". A girl sat in front of me looking at me expectedly. Behind her, I could see a crack of white in this entirely black world. Turning around I saw a similar crack behind me. In between us was a white circle and some sort of seat.

Looking to my left and right it was entirely black except for some sort of greyish tint to the left side. The girl in front of me was still looking at me while I was looking around. "You don't remember huh. So that's why you changed your name." Nodding, the girl in front of me seems to have reached a conclusion of some sort.

"Changed my name?" The girl only stood up and replied. "No matter what, I have to respect your decision, therefore I cannot tell you this." My head suddenly hurt a lot. Information I can't remember streaming past my eyes as I saw scenes I knew I experienced, but couldn't remember.

There were only a few scenes, but all of them had the same theme. "The Memory Erasure of Livy XXXXXX", but every time it came to my last name it suddenly blurred and changed the scene. This went on for a while before I regained vision.

Standing right in front of me, only a few centimeters apart, the girl smiling holding a finger to my nose. "Pokey the not-awake Livy." Musing at her I, inspecting her, found her eerily similar to some of the forgotten memories. "What is your name?" As if pondering, the girl inclined her and put her arms on her knee tapping her face.

"I suppose it wouldn't hurt telling you. My name is Yvil." No last name?

"No last name?" Yvil smiled and said.

"Telling you that would hurt, however, and you'd probably hate me." The last name that would make me hate her? She is very good at making me confused... Though I was curious about her last name, another question with more importance came up.

"Where is this place? Actually, WHAT is it?" Yvil, as if she was expecting my question jumped up and down like a little girl and started explaining the most confusing thing that I have ever heard.

"This is the personality center! The seat in the middle is the control center, sitting in it will grant you control of whatever body this is. For example, this is your personality center making this your body."

"Ah, but only the owner of the body can actually sit in this place, so don't worry about me snatching control over your body." Frightened, she suddenly began shouting at me. "GET IN THE SEAT NOW! WE DON'T WANT YOUR BODY TO NOT HAVE A SOUL. QUICK!"

She pushed me into the seat and my consciousness left me... or rather, it returned.

"She's waking up? Thank God, I didn't think that my healing spell would actually work even though I just picked the class.", "Thank you for saving her.", "Come on guys, look at Livy! You're confusing her!", after waking up I heard a lot of people talking. I instantly recognized two of the voices as Tarya and Bernard, but the third, a man, I could not recognize.

Looking at the man, embarrassingly scratching the back of his head he explained. "I am Harvord, Subject ID #455221. I recently selected the class Priest and I received payment for treating you. In the real world, I was studying medicine and was about to work intern as a doctor. Nice to meet you." Watching him twitch around embarrassed I did not pester him for anything. Seeing the other three people in the room I could only smile. "How long was I out?" Tarya took the initiative for my questions and answered them honestly.

Apparently, I caused quite the commotion being brought by the guards as if I was a prisoner. Most of the subjects are discussing the possibilities of being jailed for inappropriate behavior. Since I had not shown myself outside since last night, I woke up only a few hours after passing out, many people thought it was the truth. Wryly laughing at this I smiled at the others.

"Thank you."

Lily, who was trying to keep her tears in no longer could and only hugged me. "You missed me this much huh." She only nodded while being in my embrace.

Fear, Love and Pain, all closely intertwined with each other. Always being around the corner of the other.
