Chance 2/2

After uttering this promise, he felt like the old ties that once bound him were carved from the depths of his soul. He did not know if the penalties could be applied in another world, but his selfish side hoped that at least the blessings before the promise given could help him on the new path he would embark on.

"Now I am Arturo, whatever awaits me on this path I will walk it with dignity, first survive then seek a goal"

Frankly, he was somewhat confused by such a promise he had made. Such promises carried immense weight, but still he said them as if that was the "right thing to do."

Although he did not regret it, he left many more doubts about his origin and why he was here. He could not ignore the future misfortunes that would fall on the world, but if he was helpless in the face of everything, how would he help someone else if not he could help himself.

Arthur, or at least the present me, was not a pristine king in the path of chivalry. Before everything, a king did not exist without people who considered him one above all the self who had lived a quiet life was not the most upright model of morality

If he had to say it himself, he was a very selfish guy who just wanted to live as he wanted ie a normal young millennial that you can find anywhere.

The totally different morals of two even more different lives could cause problems for him, but he preferred to put them aside in the end, now he was just a child that his future self manages

Irresponsibly leaving his problems to an uncertain future, he decided to focus on the now.

At last he felt complete, the feeling of fulfillment in recovering his old companion and knowing who he was putting an end to his identity crisis had lifted a great burden on his shoulders.

I can't help but laugh with joy at all this

HA HA HA HA HA HA

He was so happy, relieved that although he knew he had more problems ahead he was no longer alone, he was more than a boy without memory or a half-dead failed king.

"I am just what I am" he let out with a huge smile on his face.

Arthur could predict that in the near future he would voluntarily or involuntarily head for a hell of blood, but he wouldn't let that cloud the happiness he might feel at times like this.

"It seems it's time to wake up" he said but he couldn't help but notice how the countless doors around him were still there.

'JA, I knew it' understanding why his mind was more and more stable, it was not that both identities had merged completely.

'Partial assimilation, I guess' that would explain why I keep my ego and have only certain mannerisms and fragmented knowledge from my old life, at least the knowledge of this world obtained from playing World of War Craft is intact… I think.

'I hope that my body will progressively assimilate this amount of information, it will be useful in more than one way if I want to survive, I will not force the opening of more memories for now, it is time to wake up'

Taking one last look at this strange chamber, he closed his eyes and opened them back in the meditation room.

Feeling a weight on her lap, she wasn't surprised to see her old partner on her lap.

Measuring at least more than 1 meter and who knows how many kg, she breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she was sheathed.

'Another strangeness, how is it that it materialized in the real world' thought Arturo 'I assumed that the act of pulling the sword out of the stone would be something symbolic in my mind, but at the same time I feel that it is "natural" that it is close to me'

Not wanting to think more about things that escaped his understanding, when he got up he noticed a lightness in his body that he had not felt in a long time.

He clenched his fists and on impulse slammed his fist against the nearest wall.

BANG

Surprised earlier by the unexpected loud noise even more by the result, he widened his eyes at the fist-shaped mark left by the blow he had given.

Soon a girl rushed into the meditation room at the loud noise that had been produced

'I hope it has not exploded, as a dead child and his pieces scattered around the room are supposed to explain' opening the door, he prepared himself for the possible disaster that he would see

'Air filter ready, don't splash my boots' ready to cast the cleaning spell as quickly as possible, she was surprised at the sight of the perverted idiot feeling a strange hole in the wall.

"What are you supposed to do?" Doubtful but curious at the mark that was definitely not there before, she looked more closely, feeling the traces of mana use.

He saw how the right hand of the increasingly strange pervert, still had magical traces.

'Do you cast a spell upon awakening as a magician? It wouldn't be the first time that happened, but let's put aside his pathetic attempt at magic. '

"HEY IDIOT, YOU WERE NOT TAUGHT NOT TO DESTROY THINGS THAT DO NOT BELONG TO YOU"

"Shh let me think for a bit, hush noisy brat"

"THINK, HA as if your crude magic casting was the subject of many thoughts" he said without hiding the mockery in his voice

"Nope, it was just a punch I didn't use any spells"

"What?" He approached and looked more closely at the mark left, and indeed the traces of his knuckles were unmistakable.

'He strengthened his fist with his overwhelming mana, it's the first time I've seen such a memorable example of mana wasted…. How his hand didn't explode'

Quickly taking the brat's hand, she squeezed a little and was greeted with a cry of pain

ARGH

"What's wrong you crazy brat"

"Stupid you just broke several bones in your hand, congratulations you did not totally lose your hand" he said sarcastically but added "I forgot, if my father knows that you left a mark on his boat, you will swim with the nagas"

Turning around determined to move quickly away from the evidence of crime, a hand stopped her from her strategic retreat.

"ONE MOMENT"

He turned around, seeing the most stupidly pretty smile he ever saw in his short life.

"Thank you very much for all your help, I know I have been a continuous annoyance, but I have not even told you my name, this is Arturo, you can tell me Art if you like, I thank you from my heart that you have given me the opportunity to save my life" bowing lightly before his savior.

"Uhmm if it's not too much to ask, will you have some food? I'm starving."
