At the modern times, a certain young university student had dreamed a single dream every night for the rest of his life. The smell of blood and death, walking corpses and monsters that devours every living being. He saw a handsome blond man with cold purple eyes with a gaze that pierces through everything, his sword that glows a golden aura in the middle of the battlefield and slices through everything with a serene and perfect movements leaving a golden dust and ashes. And every time he waved his hand a gold light flows out from his arms and healed his men. Alfred, a freshman at the prestigious university had live his life through pain and hardships, with a drunkard and abusive father who causes him a problem every now and then. He knows that he can’t rely on him so he had to work as a part timer at night and study at day, every time he felt that he had no escape from this reality he always read his old and tattered book called ‘Sanguine’, A fantasy book where the story revolve at the 6th prince a son of a King and a beautiful barons’ daughter. It is a typical munchkin novel where the mc is bullied because of his blood red hair who fight against the monster and society and claiming the throne at the end. At the middle of the night, a guy in a convenience store uniform Alfred is walking with a fed-up expression on his face. Maybe because of his tyrant-like manager or the fact that his abusive father will take his hard-earned money and beat him before he rest. Suddenly a feeling of someone’s gaze had penetrated his body, a sense of danger and urgency had surge. Cold bullets of sweats formed at his forehead, his lips had dry and a cold feeling of metal pierces through his back and lose his consciousness. I was stab.

In the middle of the night inside the forest, a rough breathing of an exhausted young man are heard, as he step, the sound of the breaking twigs followed, the wind blows and the branches sway as the sound of insects echoes throughout the forest, the light of the two moons guides him. The young man at the age of 17, with his tattered clothes and golden hair that makes everyone knows his a royalty and a purple eyes that glows everytime it reflects the moonlight, is running for his life. This guy, Alfred Lewin the 6th prince of The kingdom of Kana, that is what everyone knows as he has the soul and memory of a different person he knows that he is not the sixth prince but the seventh imperial prince who died from the hands of the assassins. Means he supposedly dead by now but, he could not think properly right now.

'what the hell is happening?!!'

Yesterday I was just walking at the alley after my shift I am just a regular working student, and I was .... stab.

'ugh.. is this reincarnation?'

[The following requirements are fulfilled]

"what!?" Startled I blurted out...

"What the hell is happening!!??"

'What kind of quest had required of me running away from the assassins'

As I was dazedly looking at the letters in front of my eyes a gust of wind flew at my side and

thud*

I heard a silent sound of stab at the tree.

'f*ck!, what the hell! I just died and someone is killing me already!??'

As I run with all my might, I heard the sound of a running water. I followed the faint sound and as the sound grew louder. I saw a scenery that is so grand it feels like a picture inside a dream, a beautiful waterfall, the two moons and the sound of water is so relaxing. I was captivated.

Soon another dagger flew and this time stab my legs.

"ughhh!!"

I erased all the absurd thoughts and run. I know that I will die if I stop for a little and rest.

'ugh!! what kind of curse life is this!!?

they are playing at me!!! they can kill me in an instant if they wanted to.'

For the first time in my life I felt so pathetic. As I grew up in an abusive household I thought I had experienced all kind of hardships.

'I don't know how to explain the feeling of having my life as a play tool of this assassins'

The sound of the waterfall is now so loud that my rough breathes and steps are cannot be heard.

"You have nowhere to run now" said by one of the five assassin.

'this bastard is laughing!!?'

Standing at the edge of the cliff a chilling voice flows to my ear.

"only death awaits you!" said the bastard

'am I... going to die again?'

but I don't want to, If I ever die again without fighting. Being stab at the middle of the night in an alley where my corpse will rot in a dirty ground, just thinking about that...

'I don't want to die'

When one of the assassin talks, the other 4 slowly get out of the tree. Scared I step back.

'I don't want to die!!! I don't want to die!!! I don't want ... to.. die...'

shaaaaa* (sound of the waterfalls)

"ha.. ha..."

as I roughly breathe, I ask

"Who the hell... send .....you?!!"

the assassin who is certain that I will die answered. His playful voice is heard, as if he is playing with a dog I heard and saw the laugh and his crescent eyes that make me shudder.

"you want to know?... hmmm I guess your family is not that good as you think they are..." he said..

'what kind of curse life is this?, a second life that does not even reach a single day'

'Crazy... they saw people as an animal to be disposed off!!?'

"Ha!"

a bitter laugh came out from my mouth, I can't even enjoy my past life and in my second life I will die again!?

"I will die" I laughed historically

only the sound of the waterfalls are heard.

after a moment of silence, I said.

"but not in your own hands, you fuck*rs!!!"

as I said that I jump at the waterfall, I saw the two moons, The blue that is so bright as if it was the middle of the day and the small red one with a faint red light.

'so pretty .... If I have a chance I wanted to live quietly, I want to become rich so I don't have to work, I'm... just ... so.... tired...'

[All the requirements are fulfilled]

'ahh this again! I don't even know what the hell is this!'

[Will you accept the reward? Y/N]

thinking that I will not lose a single thing I accepted it.

"Y...es"

as I said that, a golden light came out from my body. The warm light covered my body and soon a beautiful golden butterfly wings materialize in front of my eyes.

'it is pretty and .... big'

splash*

as if to protect me from thw water, the wings had covered my whole body. The boy, Alfred Lewin has lose his consciousness surounded by Golden light under the water. As the water flows, the exhausted young man is sleeping soundlessly like a child without worrying about anything. as he sleep the water current rocks him slowly.

At the edge of a river, a handsome young man is sleeping. If anyone saw this they will be captivated by his charm. His long golden hair that is comparable to the sun, his skin that is so soft and white as if he bathe in milk every day and his well built body. With the sound of the forest it feels like he is a holy being descended from above.

A sudden headache that feels like someone's hammering my head wakes me up.

"ugh!?"

Soon, as the pain subsides a soft sound of water trickled my ear, half of my body are still in water.

Realizing what is happening now, I observed my surroundings. Feeling no sense of danger

I tried to move, but my body is too tired.... I am too tired from what the hell happened yesterday.

"I survived... ha!"

Laughing a bitter laugh I checked my body, all the wounds are gone, the small grazes

from running through the forest and the bleeding wound from my cheek and legs are gone...

"What the... I'm sure that there is... I was seriously wounded..."

realizing all the miracles that happens. I tried to recreate the golden thing yesterday...

"so who the hell I am that those bastard tried to kill me!?"

While lying at the edge of the river, letters slowly wiggled in front of my eyes. Is this the thing called status window? Ha... Am I inside the game or something??

"what!!?? Saint? I'm not even a religious guy, what king of shinannigan is this!?? am I suppose to lead some religious group to defeat a demon king or something!!??"

Baffled, I just realized the most important thing right now...

"Kana, it is the kingdom in the novel 'Sanguine', so I am inside the novel huh"

feeling tired I don't have the energy to be surprised anymore.

" I am known as the sixth prince, but in reality I am the seventh. hmmm, in the novel there are no seventh Prince."
