-Third Pov-
A full moon can be seen high in the sky majestically, along the river coast, a boy can be seen lying unconscious, after a few minutes the boy opens his eyes slowly, knits his eyebrows he abruptly wakes up from his lying position to be surprised by the sudden pain he felt all over his body and screamed inwardly, after what it felt to him like an eternity passed, he adjusted his position to drink water from the river to be surprised again.
"What the..." he said, what he saw was a young boy about 11 years old, pale skin, gleaming gold eyes, black hair reaching to his shoulders, skinny but not to the point only bones were left, the only good point about him is his ethereal handsome face, 'who is this!' he thought as he tried to recall what happened, he sighs and said, "so I'm dead, and this is not my body".
/FLASHBACK/
A young man around age 25 can be seen on the side of the road with his hands caressing a black cat with red eyes, the cat seems to enjoy it so does he, but suddenly his focus drifted by a sudden scream from who seems to be a lady in her 30s standing near the zebra cross, "Nooo!! my children" she screamed while hoping someone would save her twin from a truck that was about to hit them both, and someone dash forward and push the twin, fortunately, the twin is safe but not him, the truck hit him and he was thrown far until he landed near the black cat, the cat licked his wounds as he recalled his life for the past 25 years of living.
His name was 'Mikael Godfrey', he's part of the Godfrey Family, a well-known family in Scotland, but unfortunately he is an illegitimate child of the current patriarch, his mother left him because she is tainted by the shame she brought upon the family, so since he was a child he always got bullied by his 'sibling' when he was young until one day when he reaches 18 years old of age he was thrown away by the patriarch who he never considered as his father so he was rather happy that finally, he can get out of this damned household.
(Of course, I made this up so don't take it seriously hahaha.)
For the past few years he has worked hard so that he can achieve his dream, of becoming a 'Chef', when he has some free time he often reads novels, manwha, and of course anime but his all-time favorite is One Piece, but most of that free time he uses to watch movies & series, especially the Twilight movies, he loved them so much that one day he wants to build his mansion in forks.
"Hahaha...so this is the end huh...." he said and suddenly he remembered his favorite line from a certain medieval movie that he liked so much.
"Long Live... The King..." As he said those last words, his vision turned black but beside him, the black cat raised its ears and sneered. He opened his eyes only to find out where he was at the moment.
/FLASHBACK END/
He sighed and tried to stand up but he couldn't as his body was very fragile at the moment, he chose to inspect the body that he currently occupied, he sighed again and said, "Full of bruises, whip marks, and worst of all, a single sword mark on the back of his body, what a miserable life this kid had".
"Indeed.", ??? said startled him as he looked around to find a kid similar to him standing behind him, "Y-You.." he said, "Yes, I look familiar and yes I was the owner of the body that you currently occupied." ??? said while smiling,
"But how?" he asked,
"Well I am but a remnant or what is left on that body in a shape of spirit, I am here to give you the 'Will' of the previous owner to you.", ??? said and approach Mikael while pointing his finger to Mikael's forehead.
Suddenly Mikael felt immeasurable pain as slowy memories that are not his invaded his mind, after what it felt to him like an eternity he calmed downed and recalled what he just saw, 'so his name is Cheon Ma, currently 11 years old, the illegitimate child of the current patriach of The Demonic Sect, his mother died when he was 8 because she was poisoned by one of his father's concubine because of jealousy and since then his father ignored him, so he got bullied, tortured, not well fed, no one cares about him except a grandma that taught him all basic skills such as reading, math, etc.
But she died at the age of 80 a year ago, now he is all alone, and one day when he is hunting in the forest a group of young masters the same age as him approaches and bullied him but he fought back, unfortunately he had to flee because he cant take all of them and cornered to a cliff, he had to jump because they threatened to kill him but one of their swords managed to hit him in the back and everything went black when he fell in the river.'
Mikael sighed and looked up to the full moon and reflected on his life a little, this kid's life is as miserable as his but not as fortunate as his, he had a chance to grow up and enjoy life while this kid...sigh...he looked at "Cheon Ma's" spirit as the spirit slowly fading under the moonlight before he left he said, "and one last thing, live your life to the fullest and always be grateful." He smiled as he close his eyes and fades within the moonlight.
"....."
Mikael couldn't help but tear up a little and said, "Thank You..."
