Chapter 1: A New Life.

The moment I opened my eyes, what greeted me was a unfamiliar interior of a building. The place was composed of different items ranging from furnitures and silverwares which I surmised to have belonged to a classical interior set of the 1850's.

I assumed it was just any other fancy place I've gone too, yet what boggled my mind was a humongous skull belonging to an unknown creature that may have been 7 meters when it was alive.

Suddenly a scene appeared in my mind, a monstrous phantom of the skull being alive as if wanting to bite my head off.

My breathing tightened and my legs became soft— I almost fell down only for a hand to save me from kissing the shiny wooden floors.

"Young master, please be careful." It was a she, her voice was like a hymn of a bird, the language was a mix of french and nihongo yet I understood.

Her hand's grip felt strong which was quite unusual for a lady like her to have.

She was a beautiful woman probably in her mid 20's, she was wrinkling her brows before checking me for any signs of being sick, I also noticed that she was wearing a maid's outfit.

I thought that it was weird that she was in a getup like that, is this a cosplay event?

"Thank you for the catch Ms, uhmm do you know where I am right now..." I was probing my surroundings and I've noticed that the items around were things that may have a large value on the market if it was sold due to the golden linings that was imbedded on their edges.

The maid blinked her eyes a few times before answering.

"Have you forgotten Young master? This is your home, the barony of your father Baron Hearst." She said.

I stared at her eyes just to find any inkling of doubt inside but all I saw was nothing but the truth in her eyes.

"Wait? I can't remember anything..." I widened my eyes as the memories bombarded my thoughts, I tried to mutter something but I only release a cry.

Memories cascaded my inside churning my mind to associate with what I had forgotten or locked away, in the process of it I remembered my name and it was-

"Mark? I'm called Mark, Mark is my name yet?" More memories overwhelmed me, I felt lightheadedness to the sensory overload and soon a headache came.

It was unbearable as if I had ate hundreds of ice creams and had brain freeze at the same time. The last thing I knew was that I was once again in the maid's arm but I was unable to move as voices of worry and fright filled my ears before everything faded to black.

"Huh?" I only knew that when I woke up I felt warmt, like a ray of sunshine shining down on me as well as a right amount of shade from the trees outside that made this morning quite comfortable.

"Aaaaargggghhhh!" I wanted to yawn however pain abruptly interrupted my thoughts, I had a tear ran down on my face as I held unto my head begging for the pain to go away.

Soon heavy footsteps came towards me, it was two maids with a furrowed brow. They noticed my abnormality and started questioning my agony filled face.

"What's the matter Young master!?"

"Theodora, do you have any clue why he's in pain?"

"I don't know he's completely healthy and I see no signs of anything that may make him be like this."

"Clear the way. I'll use my healing powers on him maybe this could help ease his pain."

As soon as the voices died down, A chant of an unknown language invaded the surrounding. It was a sound that held otherworldliness, it reverberated through my body producing warmth and love that calmed the raging pain inside of my mind. It continued on for a few minutes before the pain gradually died down.

"He's not screaming anymore. Is he fine now?"

"Shush! Let him recover then we'll speak."

After a few moments, I lifted my head up to see who was the two voices muttering under their breaths and I was greeted by a getup of maid clothing worn by two beautiful ladies. One had brown hair, a well-maintained milky skin and hazel-colored eyes that glimmered with curiosity. The other had black hair, tanned skin and a brown-colored eyes that inspected my body, she gave off a sharp feeling as if she was dangerous.

"Are you fine now, Virule?" I flinched but I knew it was the person who healed me using 'magic'. I turned to the feminine voice at the side and saw a beautiful and elegant lady. She was still looks like a teen probably 13 years old, she held herself gracefully fully knowing the intricacies of view. If I had to say then she would have been a fashion model in the other world.

"Look, Virule I don't know what's wrong with you and Father's been worried about it, so I'll ask this have you eaten something strange or gone to a place unsupervised?"

"Uh no?" I was contemplating about my situation so I answered reservedly, beckoning for a reaction. However my big sister only sighed in relief.

"I wanted to examine your body for more complications but I don't have much time. So I'll just tell father that you're okay now alright?"

"Uhmm...sure..."

"That's about it then, I'll be on my way. Theodora, Finea take care of Virule for me okay?"

"Yes milady!" Theodora and Finea bowed.

My big sister left quickly leaving the two maids standing to work on their craft as they brought me a set of food along with eating utensils, Finea stood at my side carrying a tea pot.

I squinted my eyes at them, focusing on their delicate movements as if they rehearse it for how many times. It spoke of their skill and depth that it made me realize that they weren't just ordinary people.

I graciously accepted the food Theodora brought in which was a pair of steak coated with glazed honey and topped with extra seasonings that smelled like rosemary and thyme. I took my time to smell it before finally taking a small bite. Flavor exploded at the tip of my tongue, chewing the meat made the juiciness burst out of my mouth making my mind float as if I felt heaven closing in. I delighted myself in taking small bites, just to enjoy the exotic taste that firmly recorded itself on my tongue. I didn't know how much time had passed but I only knew that I finally finished my meal. Giving me the opportunity to let out a small yet satisfying burp. I excused myself but the maids didn't mind it.

Finea poured me a handful of cup of tea, I let the hot air simmer through my nostril as I smelled the mint before slowly pecking its content I finished it quite fast as I finally snapped out of my gourmet personality. Theodora tidied up my remaining food and Finea offered me a white piece of cloth —a hanky. I thanked them but they didn't seem to mind my politeness and proceeding to bring me a cloth to wipe the smudges on my mouth. Theodora soon left and only Finea was there stuck to my side.

I didn't bother her though, firmly concentrated on recalling my memories as I daydreamed. I organized every thoughts I had, every important memories that I held and all of the things I've dreamed of filled my mind.

My eyes had flashes of happiness then came sadness, a cold stare for a moment before finally being filled with a warm gaze.

Theodora returned and brought with her cleaning equipments that helped me snapped out of my thoughts. I let her finish her work first because I had something to asked them about.

"Can I ask something?" Fully understanding the prospects of reincarnated I had something I wanted to know, a clue to where and what world I was in.

"What is it Young master?"

"Can you bring me books? Preferably history?"

"I'll be back!" Theodora scurried elsewhere to get me history books.

"Based on the information I could gather with what I just experienced, this may be a fantasy world, magic exist and that also means there is gonna be fighting involved in the future. The maid from before said I was a Young Master of a barony that my father ruled upon meaning this world's government is that of a monarchy, titles are a given especially if they hold strength to back it up, the poor and weak rely upon the mood of the powerful as they provide the needs of the nobility. Slavery has a possibility to exist and many more..."

"A dangerous world to be in if I was just from a weak and poor family. Being reincarnated into a body of a young noble kid is already a blessing..."

"Maybe I would reconsider my speculations once I have a basic overview of the history of this place, I have a lot of time now that I'm in a body of a 6 year old." This was my analysis based on the situation in front of me now.

I really don't get why I was this analytic maybe something happened to me in my past life?

A knock disturbed my thoughts as Theodora came in with books in hand.

"Thank you." Theodora curtsied before standing in ovation again.

I immediately came to a conclusion that I won't be able to binge read all the books spread out in front of me, so I decided to apply something I learned from my previous world, called skim reading.

"Okay, now let's get this started..."
