The Extra's Indifference

"Aghh…"

A groan of pain escaped from my mouth. My head was aching like some imaginary needles were pricking me over and over again. 

I opened my still-closed eyes with great difficulty and got up. 

It was the middle of the night, hence I couldn't see well but I was sure that I wasn't in my room. 

My heart quickened and my breathing got harsher but all of my agitated emotions calmed down in a second as if they were a lie. 

It was kind of strange. I was normally a calm person but I wasn't calm enough to not worry about waking in a different room with excessive pain in my head. 

I went to the window with staggering steps and looked at the below. It was too dark for me to see, thus I sighed and looked at the sky, then I stayed still because of the shock. 

Though this shock too didn't last long and was subdued in a few seconds later. 

"Why there is an extra moon in the sky?" I said it out without thinking. 

It was strange, too strange. There wasn't just one moon in the sky but two of them. One of them was crystal blue while the other one was blood-red. 

I began to think about what happened to me as it was easy to think because of my abnormally calm emotions. 

'Did I get drugged by a pervert? Or did some crazy scientist experiment on me? Or did someone hit my head hard enough to make me partially insane?'

All of them were highly possible but there was something other than these, that came to my mind. 

'Have I been transported to another world? But I am not even a Japanese high school student.'

While I was thinking like this, the pain in my head disappeared and I noticed another abnormal fact. 

It was my body, although calling it my body would be a lie as it wasn't my body but some random child's. 

I touched my face, felt my hair, and checked my nether region. 

'Hmm, I am in an 8-to12-year-old boy's body and my hair is long enough to reach my shoulder.' 

It was weird, my emotions were tranquil as a lake, without any ripples, even after i discovered the fact that I was in a boy's body. 

'Did someone put me in a VR machine while I was sleeping? But it is still ridiculous that I am still calm even in this case.'

"Menu." I said it out and waited for a holographic game panel but it was for naught.

"Status." 

"Settings."

I tried every other command like those used in games but there wasn't anything to help me. Thus I decided to accept my situation right now and assume that I transmigrated into someone's body. 

'Can I read this body's memories? Memories are stored in the brain, so it can work but it would be strange if it works because I can still remember my memories while I am not in my body.'

After thinking like this, I closed my eyes and tried to access to this body's memories. 

"What a bullshit world in I am. Why the fuck I transmigrated into a dark fantasy and tragedy novel that I don't even remember its title." I commented after reviewing the memories of this body.

I was still calm and now I knew the reason for this extraordinary calmness. 

Because I transmigrated into the body of the protagonist's childhood friend, who was an apathetic and desireless extra who dies even before the apocalypse. 

Yes, apocalypse. A minimum of 10 years later apocalypse will hit this world and everyone will be fucked by Abyss creatures. Not literal fucking though. 

And I transmigrated into this world. Luckily I had transmigrated into an insanely beautiful body that make people question their sanity and preferences. But this wasn't at all, I wasn't just beatiful, I was overpowered enough to survive if I worked hard enough. 

Unfortunately, I didn't have any desire to live, though this didn't mean that I desire to die. I simply didn't have any desire because of this cursed body. 

Well, It wasn't all bad because I still had some emotions left, around 5% of my original emotions, to be precise. 

And my soul had fused with Kayle's, who is the original owner of this body and childhood friend of the protagonist. 

How did I know? Well, it was really simple because Kayle was apathetic because he had a curse in his soul so It was apparent that my soul fused with Kayle's, or else I wouldn't have this curse. 

'Well, if my soul fused with Kayle's and if I am in Kayle's body then this means I can very well become Kayle himself.'

'Yup, right here right now I am Kayle Ceurie.'

I was lucky to have Kayle's body and memories or else I would get caught in the second because even if the original Kayle was apathetic, he was acting like a normal child. 

Yes, he was intelligent enough to act like children at his age which means I should act like him too. 

Well, firstly I decided to sleep because as a 10-year-old boy, I needed my sleep. 

I lifted the blanket off my bed and was about to go in but I stopped because there was a little girl under the blanket. 

'She must be Lucy Ceurie, Kayle's sister, step-sister to be exact. Kayle was adopted to the Ceurie family rather than being born here.' And the original Kayle died because he saved Lucy even while he wasn't feeling anything for her. 

But this was far into future, so I didn't think about it. 

'Should I make her dependent on me? She too was overpowered, though not as much as Kayle but I can use her unique magic to lift my curse.' I thought and decided to make this little girl dependent on me. 

I got into the blanket and hugged Lucy to my chest like an overprotective sis-con.

******

I was sleeping but I felt something on my cheek, hence I opened my eyes and saw a black haired beautiful little with dark purple eyes who was looking at me while caressing my cheek. 

I stretched my arms to this little girl and hugged her to my chest, then said with a sleepy voice: 

"Good morning, my dear Lucy. Did you sleep well?"

I felt Lucy's heart hammering to her chest as if she was going crazy. 

"Good morning brother, I sleep well." Lucy whispered in a shy voice. 

'So this little girl has a crush on me or she has been affected by my beauty. Well, I can use this to seduce this innocent girl.'

"That is good," I whispered into her ear and kissed her cheek. 

"Hyaa!" Lucy tried to push me but I didn't let her go and looked into her eyes. 

"What happened? Are you okay?" I asked with a concerned voice. 

Lucy hesitantly buried her face in my chest again and said quietly: 

"I am okay brother, I am just surprised because normally you don't like to be close to me."

'Original Kayle was acting like a child but he didn't get closer to Lucy, so it was normal for her to act like a scared cat.'

I patted Lucy's soft black hair and whispered: 

"Then you don't need to be surprised anymore because I will always be with you."

Lucy's face heated up and I decided to stop as there was no need to push my luck while I have a minimum of 5 years. 

I got up from the bed with yawn and went to the bathroom. I took a bath and familiarized myself with my body, then looked at the mirror. 

There I saw a white haired human child that I couldn't describe their gender as this child was a neutral beauty whose beauty doesn't discern their gender. 

Though yesterday I checked my genitalia, so I knew this human child was a boy. 

Anyway, apart from my white shoulder length hair, I had crystal like sharp blue eyes, a pointy nose, and not too plump but still plum lips. 

'Haven't crystal like eyes have some special power? Though I don't know what my eyes' power is, so there is no need to think about it for now. ' I thought and focused on my beauty. 

'I think I can use this beauty to seduce and manipulate people.' I thought and wore a bathrobe to cover my naked self, then got out of the bathroom. 

Lucy was still laying on the bed and when I come out of the bathroom she turned her head toward me. 

I wore some clothes while Lucy was hiding her eyes with her hands but still peeked at me between her fingers. 

Well, I let her be and after wearing my clothes, I gestured to her. 

"Let's go, we shouldn't make father wait for us, or else he will be angry." I said and went to the dining room of this huge mansion with the memories of the original Kayle as a guide. 

There I saw a black haired tall man with purple eyes, and an average but cold face. 

This was my father Count Ceurie, a 7th circle mage that specialized in Information magic. 

Information magic is rare magic that is only found in Ceurie blood, and every information mage is like a detector who can know something with simple magic. 

So, I tried my best to act like the original Kayle to not cause suspicion and sat down at the table. 

We quietly ate our food and I got up quickly without causing suspicion to Count Ceurie. 

I was lucky to have my emotions reduced or else I would be caught by the Count Ceurie because of fear or anxiety. 

Anyway, I went to the library and read some books about this world's power system because I didn't remember it clearly. 

1st to 4th circle/crystal Apprentice Mage/Knight/Assasin etc.

5th to 7th circle/crystal Adept Mage/Knight/Assasin etc.

8th circle/crystal Master Mage/Knight/Assasin etc. 

9th circle/crystal Archmage/Grandmaster Knight/Grandmaster Assasin etc.

Every circle/crystal is divided into; low, middle and high rank 

Well, all of the books I read were simple informations of this world. 

Mana is neutral matter and everything has mana. 

But not everyone could become a mage because mages needs to have at least 1 affinity but apart from mages everyone could become knight. 

Circle/Crystal progression is absorbing mana so they are fundamentally same but at the same time is not. 

Mages make mana circles but they can't carelessly absorb mana, they have to use proper techniques and gadgets because the affinity they have gives characteristics to their bodies and before they absorb the neutral mana, it became characteristics with mana and this caused them mana poisoning that make them feel maddening amount of pain that most normal mages can't bear. 

But crystal users can directly absorb neutral mana without worry, though they can't use magic, just body enchanting or similar things. 

As for the affinities, they are like keys. Mages can cast magic more efficiently if they have an affinity. For example, someone with fire affinity can cast a fireball with 5x mana while someone with no affinity to fire still can cast a fireball but is more expensive, around 500x to 5000x. 

Though activities are not just key to efficient magic, they are altering the personality of the mage. Well, only the highest affinity alters the personality of the mage, not all of them. 

For example, someone with fire affinity can be always angry or loves to cause fire or just be more energetic. 

After reading the key information that I needed, I went back to my room because I read the books for a long time and it was pretty late for me as a 10 year old. 

Though I didn't sleep and began to inject mana in to my body and mana poison myself. 

Well, it was painful but it wasn't painful enough to make me mad like normal mages because my sense of pain too were reduced. 

And I wasn't poison myself for nothing. It was to gain resistance to my own mana and in the long run immunity.
