The rest of the day for Yuta was unsuccessful to say the least.
Instead of working out in a gym to gain strength like Yuta would do in his old world, Apollo and Hercules had him chopping down trees and breaking stones with tools all day.
To him the only good thing that had happened all day was the food he received when it was time for dinner.
-
That night while Yuta was sleeping he had a dream, and a strange one at that.
He was in his old house, watching television with his dog Diesel. While someone else was in the kitchen cooking, but something was different.
Instead of actually reliving these memories in his old body. He was floating on the side in his new one.
"Honey~ dinner is ready." A sweet voice called out from the kitchen.
He watched as Ben and Diesel immediately jumped up from the couch and went towards the dining room.
Once they entered they saw a beautiful woman, who had shoulder length black hair and blue eyes putting plates of food on the table and one on the floor for Diesel.
The dream went over the happy dinner and night, but then it suddenly skipped to a time that the woman and Ben had been arguing.
Yuta couldn't tell what they had been arguing over but it soon ended when Ben and Diesel left the house with some packed clothes.
But the worst part came when it skipped to Ben coming home.
He opened the door to the house and you can guess it, he heard the moans of his wife and the sounds of a bed hitting the wall.
But unlike what he wanted to do, which was to go up and murder the man upstairs.
He simply grabbed a few of his things from down stairs and all of his money from his safe and left.
The dream then skipped to a few years later when Ben and Diesel had finally settled down in a small house with some land. They had been having a good time, until that damn Magic circle thing appeared.
The last thing his dream recalled was the circle glowing bright then he woke up gasping for air.
*gasp*
He placed a shaky hand on his head in hopes of calming down his raging headache, to no avail.
The thoughts and questions raging throughout his mind had been trying to take him over.
'Why aren't I mad?'
'Why am I acting so normal?'
'They stole me from my world and they are acting like it's normal!'
'Just who the hell do they think they are?'
'Can I go back?'
'What happened to Diesel?'
'Was I really Ben?'
'Just who am I?'
His breathing was getting worse as cold sweat started to gather on his back.

Leon who was stationed outside of Yuta's room sensed the distress his master was going through, via the soul link that was established after he was named.
Instead of knocking, Leon, gently opened the door and saw his master sitting in his bed while grabbing at his hair.
He silently walked over to the side of the bed as to not startle his master, and kneeled.
"Master is there anything I can do for you?" Leon quietly Asked, but that still shocked Yuta with his sudden appearance.
At first Yuta didn't respond and gazed at him with complicated eyes and then he tried to control his breathing. Which worked after around 10 minutes of deep breaths.
"w….." Yuta whispered something unclear even to Leon's sharp ears.
"What master?" Leon asked again when he wasn't able to hear what Yuta said.
"why?" Yuta said in a somewhat louder voice.
"What do you mean master?" Asked Leon with a confused expression.
"Why did they summon me? Why was I ripped out of my own world and brought to this place because of the wishes of others? But what about me, What if I didn't wish to come to this world?" Yuta continued, his voice slowly growing quieter with every word.
Leon racked his brain for a few seconds before replying, "I understand what you are growing through master, But the spell only picks the person who is best suited."
"Best suited? How am I best suited? I was just a normal person with a normal job? Not some noble hero! Now tell how the hell am I suited?! And just what the hell would you know?!" Yuta said while grabbing Leon's shirt and with surprising strength he lifted the man in the air.
Leon who was shocked from the sudden outburst snapped his head towards his masters face and noticed a big changed in his masters eyes, that was the small blue flames with a hint of gold burning in his eye sockets.
"Calm down master, I will explain it to you, so please." Leon said with a hint of fear in his voice, as he tried to break the grip from his shirt.
Snapping out of his stupor, Yuta dropped Leon and quickly blinked his eyes dispersing the flames and returning his eyes to normal.
"I'm sorry…." Yuta mumbled while quickly backing away from Leon.
Leon stood up and fixed his shirt before looking over towards Yuta and he started to explain.
"Master, I'm truly sorry for everything that has happened. But like I said, the spell chooses who to bring over to this world.
It picks a person based on everything they had went through your pain, your suffering.
But it also tests your Will. You are the person the spell had chosen after it had been casted for 3 days straight.
For three days it searched for the right person and it found you. I know you might be mad that you have been forced to come here, But the spell believed you had been the best suited out of everyone else."
Leon paused before he got down on one knee once more and said.
"So please master, help our people out.
I know what I'm asking is selfish of me but please.
This world is cruel and these people have seen the worst of it. They are good people who just want to live normally without the constant worry of dying or being harmed within their sleep.
The Phoenixes brought you here to be the protector of these lands. You will not be alone either, you have me along with everyone else on this island to aid you in your journeys."
"I see....." Yuta responded while he tiredly sat on the corner of his bed.
—
It was a little while later and the sun had just started to rise up.
Leon had brought Yuta some water along with some breakfast in hopes of calming him down.
"Is there anything else you need master?" Leon asked after he placed down the tray of food in front of Yuta.
Shaking his head Yuta answered with a silent no before he started to eat his breakfast.
Leon turned with the intention of leaving the room and giving his master some space, but as he reached the door he heard Yuta call out to him.
"Wait, Leon I have a question."
Leon stopped in his tracks and turned around with a questioning look in his eyes. "Yes, Yuta-sama?"
"Tell me about your story and then I'll make my decision." Is all Yuta said before he returned to eating his breakfast.
Giving off a small smile, Leon walked over towards the bedside and sat down on a small wooden chair and started to explain.

(A/N: Some of y'all guessed that this was coming or that it needed to happen. (Scary intuition) But there are still a few things that He hasn't done and that he will need to do. )
(A/N: The next two chapters or so will be filler with the backstory of Leon and the Decision of Yuta, So due please bear with me)
Thanks for reading~
Also point out any mistakes please. :)
