Inhumane Desire

In a void of knowhere. A thought of keeps popping out as it asks oneself.

"'What is this... Why do I feel I am still alive? And like I had limbs?"

The void gradually unfolded and the mysterious thoughts finally beheld of who he was. His name is Fredo, a bonafide human being on a Earth. A Planet called Earth.

The mysterious owner of thoughts inside the the void felt something queer. Wondering what is it, was something unusual. He, the earthling boy felt he had a body that can be moved at his own.,

"'What is this…. Why did I feel this something squirming?"

The boy within the void fully knew the feelings and as time went by, he followed his curiosity and opened his human eyes as a light shone above glittering like thousands of Fireflies. The light is not rare to no one that can't find because it was a moon in the sky.

…

"Is this the aftermath of the death? Some phenomena will let you see paradise before your soul transverses to hell?"

'I should just enjoy it as much as time is moving eternally..'

The youth found the moonlight is not bad and quite pleasant in the mind and eye for his body already rotten to mud for what he remembered because he is already dead. the spectacle right now was quite refreshing feelings right now.

"'Sky sure is beautiful. In the past, I was obsessed with my utmost desire which made me walk the path of ruination."

'But I don't have regrets… even if I am still alive with my body, I will still do it. Even my flesh and blood will experience pain that is much worse than hell because that's the only thing that made me alive.'

The night was fabulous and beautiful, suddenly when the youth noticed why his eyes could still gaze at the unending glow of the sky for such a long time, he felt surprised.

"What?"

"Wait.."

"Why do I hear my thoughts when I voice them?"

Because of the constant throb of his heart, he, the youth, incidentally emitted an audible sound as he still didn't know if he really had a body for the voice flowed into the mind distinctly. The unexpected discovery made him quite startled.

"Wait....."

Fredo sent his will to the limbs he felt could be moved by his desires.

The youth calmed down a bit and for the thoughts keep popping out inside his mind, he pick a right one and he fastly implemented it. He sent his will to the body parts he felt could be moved as he will.

"What?!" A surprise flashed on his face and Fredo did something that made him realize where he was. He jerked his head around and the place where he was, unfolded by the evening beautiful night sky. A variety of trash spreads in the corner of where he was at.

"So where am I right now? If I remember correctly, my body was shot by a bullet, and I had no chance to retaliate at all.."

If the memories were still correctly intact, the youth knew that he was already a dead man, for he died before he came here that doesn't know the reason. Is this illusion or hell? The first impression he got.. And thinking vividly of the scene of his death, his heart and body calm down.

When humans experienced a thing out of this world. The self would certainly act which makes one frightened.

The boy still insisted that he was dead man and that the phenomena were just an illusion. With it, he closed his eyes.

''This what I called paradise must be some sort of phenomenon or illusion. I should just close my eyes and let the world work how they are. Dead is already dead. No matter what you do, you can't bring back the dead to live again. This is fact and truth."

The mind and body rested for he was already dead. That's what he believed. But out of ordinary, in the midst of accepting his death, a hundred fragments of memories appeared in his mind.

"What is this..." Unexpectedly, the boy was still enabled to remark the last word before a rare occurrence happened. His eyes circled and his mouth began to flush out the saliva that flowed from his throat.

And the figure of his, moved uncontrollably as if possessed by a demonic being and his mouth unceasingly salivates as if possessed by a catfish. With just this scene, one could tell the pain is immensely excruciating.

"A memory." The last thought of Fredo before he lost consciousness

.....

....

"That was unexpected." Fredo recovered from the hellish experience and the equal thing he got from what he suffered was memories. Indeed, a memories of a different person.

''To think I Transmigrated in the body of a 12-years-kid in the land of nowhere? and the name was actual is Maphaetus Ariel Abraham? what domineering name."

The fact was already presented and he, an earthling could only organize the memories piled up in his head that merged with his mind after a time. He held his head and pondered. As seconds went by, the winds blew, he breathed calmly and cooled down his head.

''I don't know if I should be happy about this… but the Lord related that had immense supernatural power to make normal humans on earth worship them if it there made my dead heart relight once again." The youth ceased his contemplation and looked at what was in front of him, trashes.

With the memories, the cause of death to the child he possessed right now was hunger. After stopping eating for a few days, he died in this place. The city name he was currently at was Halling Cove Town. The one who ruled over this city was a male, the son of a noble from the kingdom who had a bad reputation preceding him was also a noble but already died of illness. This place was lively and pleasant but when the son of nobles ruled it two-three months ago, the place experienced famine and many people died. And It seems like the city was already a slum and if not for the guard who cleanses the garbage in the surroundings from time to time.

SIGH!

"I transmigrated but in a dying kid. Well, no need to complain about it. Rendering me an ember of my dream it's already a blessing for me. "

"For now I should fill my stomach or I might end up dead again. Just like the kid and me."

The necessity to survive is eating and that is what the way he needed right now. The kid, name Maphaetus, glimpsed at the surroundings and began to rummage the garbage with his arm pallid like a dead man.

"The Former owner was unable to survive because hated to eat low delicacies. But for me? I am different. More importantly, if I had the chance to make my wish come true in this world." As time moved on, the kid finally found what the necessity was, a victualed which was a portion of pasta on top of a dilapidated box of junk scattered seemed like thrown.

On the hand of the kid was pasta, his body rejected it but he still digested it as long as he could survive for he had a reason why he didn't mind, his truest wish.

"Now that the ember of my dream is presented to me, I must grasp it." Maphaetus digested it and looked around, found another one, and digested it to fill his stomach that most folks loathe it to consume.

The moon shone brightly in the night sky, guiding him to find a victualed to let him survive for a day.

.....

As a twelve years old kid, surviving is not a problem if you are used to it or since you were born of it. The only problem was, the one who possessed the body right now didn't experience the life of lower-class in his past life. But no matter what, as long for his dream like a sprouting Lilly's in abyss, he wouldn't mind this kind of life because here, he realize the feasibility of his dream.

….

The passing days were like flying leaves as they landed. Maphaetus only did was seeking a victualed. As long as the food is still not smelly and can be eaten, he would certainly consume it without thinking for a moment of time because that's how he was. He will do anything for his dream

'If the mother of this body were still alive, I wouldn't probably have experienced this kind of life but sadly, she died 7 days ago. I wonder, where is the brother of this body? I shouldn't think this right now. He is probably dead." The kid ate the leftovers on the junk and he continued.

"Life is hard, but that's how life works, an impartial world. The so-called high status lived lavishly whilst the so-called farmer who had a breakable body did all they could but still lived underneath the society. No matter what they do because above them was an official who controlled their fate. Just like the situation right now. Just because of a certain rascal, countless lives were ruined."

Maphaetus's body was presently soiled with trash. His clean tunic was turned junk and his smooth white skin like flowers blossomed was now corroded by the filth of this place.

"I am thirsty." On the other side, countless footsteps could be heard for were in an alley right now. Fumes of smelly beggar unsoundedly on the floor of junk llying seem dead, he passed them and eventually after minutes of time, he arrived a place where had short barrel filled with water placed at side.

...…

"A water. I can finally quench my thirst.,"

He took a steps and the water reflected his pallid face which showed a smile. Maphaetus' mouth curved up because of glee and began to sustain his body with his hand merged like a gorge. He dipped it and retracted back with water in the middle of his hands. Only then, the problem was solved by sipping it.

BUWAH!

The kid slumped on the ground and leaned on the barrel-sized half tall as him for were truly exhausted."Yesterday, I tried begging for water and food but ended up being loathed. This world is really… thankfully I found water at this place, if not I would truly need to seek again in different corners of the town."

Maphaetus propped his chin with his hand, which seems thought unusual. ''Right now I still don't have a plan to get out of this place. With my meager body and status. Hayst."

The kid stood up and wiped his sweat with his arm. Looking forward, his foot raised and left the place."The afternoon is coming. I should find food to solve my problem this morning."

...…..

.

He was in the alley where the body fallen.

With a bedsheet on his hand with a vivid flowery embroidered on it, but stains of junk ruined the cleanness. He took a few step back and gradually unfolded it on the ground.

"I should sleep now." The night was beautiful, Maphaetus laid down to rest, and his eyes gradually closed down.

The posture of the kid sleeping was curved and facing the west. Minutes moved and passed, a loud noise sounded out from his back.

HMMM!

"What is that? Probably a rodent. I should just sleep continue to sleep."

The kid heard the noises for he was there lying down. He found it no different from the casual movement of a rodent which is the reason he didn't heed it. But for a long time, it eventually disturbed his rest for a night.

"Is this a big rodent?" Maphaetus propelled his body to stand up and began to find what actually it was.

The kid looked at the side corner filled with junk and his eyes dilated to even make him smile. He saw a big person eating a banana displayed by the glow of the moon in the night sky, slouched on a box.

MUM!

MUM!

MUM!

"This..., I could now see my path!" The kid smiled and instinctively gait at it. The person-sized were like a bear in the north pole, a large man with curly blond hair, and sharp teeth slowly ingested the banana held by his large wide arm.

'I should follow this big man. Following a strong is an act of survival and with my meager body, I don't think I could survive for a long time in this place.'

Maphaetus halted an inch away from him through the soundings of junks on every side. His head face on the ground, scared of the outcome of his next phase. Sweat started to appear on his neck, he cleared his throat.

"Oh deity from heaven, may I ask what your name is?" The kid's voice reverberated in the surroundings. Scared of what might happen, he didn't speak afterward and just waited for his reply. The quiet night blew a wind, the kid was sure that he stood there for one breath of time yet the anticipation he wanted hadn't come.

"Does the big man angry? Am I going to die in this place? No, I will escape even if death comes to me." Maphaetus said inwardly while thinking of a way to escape if there were a mishap will happen. A heart naturally throbbed in front of the beast, he raised his head and an inconceivable occurred.

'Why did he just eat the banana and didn't look at me?'

Vessels in every part of his body gradually stream quietly. In such minutes of time peering at the guy, he found the reasons why his behavior turned out like that.

"This guy is a defect or abnormal if it's in my world." The reason he concluded, was for looking at the big man who ate.

NOM!

NOM!

NOM!

NOM!

Maphaetus breathed and slumped to the ground. He wiped the trickling sweat from his body with his tunic sleeves.

"Earlier my body shivered because I was frightened but to think that he was actually a defective person." The kid mumbled and looked at the big man who made his heart beat.

Looking at the man before his eyes, he, the kid, mouth slowly curved into an endearing smile.

'I don't know if it's blessings in disguise or whatnot but to take the first leap in my dream, I need him.' Thinking the right way to use the big man ploy. Maphaetus found a reasonable one and before he implemented it, he first tried the big man reaction.

"Who are you?"

"Hey? Who are you?"

"Did you not hear me? Hey!" Maphaetus voice reverberated in the surroundings below the surreal evening yet the big guy didn't even jeer.

'As expected of a defective person.' The means he did was deemed useless. He stretched out his hand and snatched the banana in his grasp.

'Let's see if you still won't notice me.'

Maphaetus snatched it and took a few steps back and looked in front, finding the big guy jolted looking at him. The big guy who slouched stood up and his arm extended forward.

.

.

"Mah food." Said a big man with a deep voice.

Maphaetus saw it trod at him as he slowly took a few steps back with a banana in his hand as if baited him while he continued to make a gap between them.

''He can talk? I thought he couldn't but he actually can. This was good. With it, maybe I can do something." The kid said inwardly.

The kid once again asked him with eyes as if a predator already locked on his prey.

"Do tell me, what is your name?"

"Do tell me, what is your name?!"

"Hey! What is your name!"

Maphaetus noticed their gap decreased, he deviated and kept yelling, moseying around him, certainly a kid with something behind that a mere human couldn't identify.

"When I first saw it, something in my head became clearer. You will definitely fall on my hands."As he oscillated, his eyes rolled for he had sought something that could help him in this situation right now.

Near him was an numerous object. "I don't know if it's possible, but I will gamble this time. If it's going the wrong way, I will just escape on my own as fast as I can." He breathe and dashed away and quickly pick it for he was going to use it right now.

.

"Now, let's see." The kid drew earlier on the corner was a tattered whip for that is what he seek initially. Grabbing it with his own made him blissful and quite nervous. For now, the gamble he made was implemented
