Chapter 1: A New Body

"Where am I?" still feeling groggy, Han-wool woke up and was on high alert

"Firstly, how am I still alive?" Recalling the scenes before he had woken up Han-woo immediately looked at his surroundings.

The room was pitch black, there were several beds including medical equipment, lockers and heavy amounts of blood in some parts of the floor. He also saw a silhouette of what seemed a human body in one of the beds.

After a while, he heard foot steps approaching

"It looks like you've woken up, Lee Han-wool." A figure said, only his white lab coat could be seen as the shadows were covering his entire upper torso.

"Who are you?" Instinctively, Han-wool got up

'How?' Han-wool realized as soon as he stood up that he was fine. He observed his body and saw that his surroundings felt much smaller, he examined his hands and naked torso to find that it was spotless with no scars. He also found himself only wearing boxers.

"You've managed to realize it almost immediately, Lee Han-wool. I'm surprised" The figure continued.

The figure then threw a brown envelope at Han-wool, who managed to catch it with ease.

"What's this?" Han-wool asked, he was forcing himself to keep calm as it was the best course of action

'He's strong... even stronger than of James Lee and Tom Lee' Han-wool thought as he looked at the figure in front of him.

"The story of Lee Han-wool ends here. He's already a dead man. Live a new life, and do not forget the cause of your death." Afterwards, the figure walked out

"What's the meaning of this?" Han-wool exclaimed but the figure was no longer there

The lights turned on after the figure left.

He looked around and saw a body covered with a blanket.

Han-wool thought of something crazy 'It can't be!'

Slowly but surely, he approached the body and slowly pulled up the blanket and saw a deformed face

"No way....That's me." He covered it with a blanket again

He then looked for a nearby mirror and saw that there was a sink with a mirror on his left, he immediately rushed to it and saw it.

A face that looked to be perfect. the polar opposite of his, which was completely deformed and mangled. A height that seemed to be around 190cm, it looked like a body crafted by the Gods as the body displayed the perfect lean muscle ratio he had ever seen.

Refusing to believe anything of this is real, Han-wool punched the mirror with his left hand, effectively shattering it. There proved be to no harm to his hand which shattered the glass...

Han-wool slowly sat down and got into a fetal position.

'This isn't a dream right?' Han-wool has not accepted his reality yet. He looked at the brown envelope at his right hand and got out of the fetal position and instead sat upright.

He then slowly opened the brown envelope, inside were multiple papers which looked to be off documents. What caught his eye the most was a card, Han-wool picked it up and saw that it was an identity card

"Im Han-wool" Han-wool read out the identity card's details and saw that the picture included his current face. He looked at the other documents and saw that they were related to a address, car, bank and most importantly, was a school document.

"Jae Won High...." Han-wool recollected his thoughts and slowly stood up

Han-wool's experience helped him calm down and accept his current reality of what's happening.

"So this is what that person meant by living a new life?.."

He took another look at the documents and said

"I'm guessing all of these must be this body's belongings, Charles Choi, I'm not done with you yet."

Han-wool took a deep breath and looked around for a t-shirt but failed to find one

Han-wool then looked for an exit and got out. What met his eyes was a residential area near a park. He took a look at the documents and found an address that was supposed to be of this body and hid himself in a nearby bush.

'This is around Northern Gangbuk, if I'm correct." The surroundings were dark as it was already night time and possibly midnight.

While walking, Han-wool heard voices so he hid himself further and took a listen

"Soohyun, this is just a joke, don't worry." Han-wool looked at where the voices where coming from and saw 3 teenagers surrounding a teenager who wore glasses. In the middle of the group was a large man who held the student with the glasses' collar.

"This is school bullying, Changdong Choi!" Soohyun, who was the student with glasses exclaimed profusely. Changdong's 2 lackeys just stood there playing around, smoking cigarettes and browsing their phones.

Han-wool looked at the scene with visible disgust on his face as he stood up from the bushes. The noise from him getting out of the bushes alerted the 4.

Changdong Choi then said arrogantly "Who the fuck is that pervert?" The two lackey's then took out their phones and pointed it at Han-wool.

"Hey get out of here before they beat you up too!" Soohyun screamed as he thought despite the other party's looks, he was a crazed man.

Han-wool then slowly walked up to them and said

"I need clothes." Without further a do, he formed a fist in his hand and landed a clean strike on Changdong Choi's face. Changdong went flying as his nose was disgustingly broken and face battered, he was already out cold from one punch. The two lackeys looked at Han-wool and threatened him by saying "We'll report you to the police! We have your pictures taken!"

Han-wool then raised his hands up, signifying defeat. The two lackeys took notice of this, they smiled and got near Han-wool. But suddenly, as they got close to Han-wool, Han-wool pushed his hands as he grabbed both of the lackey's faces. He then raised them up the ground and slammed their heads to each other. Han-wool then proceeded to undress one of the lackey's clothes and wear it for himself.

He also permanently deleted the photos off their phone while subsequently smashing each one thoroughly including their memory cards. Suhyoon looked at Han-wool with amazement as he saw him beat up all his bullies all at once, while a part of him also felt fear, fearing that he would get bullied someone way worse than Changdong Choi.

"Defend yourself next time." Han-wool said to Suhyoon as he walked away, no longer going onto the bushes. Suhyoon viewed his exit quietly as he saw Han-wool walk off to the night.
