บท 2: I'm reborn As a Trash Emperor [1]

Ramon slowly opened his confused eyes and found himself surrounded by total darkness. The frightening silence reigns in all directions, and the black darkness wraps around it like a heavy curtain.

Ramon calmly stood up quietly from the floor using his hands. As he stares into the darkness,

He didn't experience the fear that one would expect from a normal human being in a similar situation. Instead, he experienced a strange feeling of darkness being a part of his existence.

If a stranger, unlike Ramon, wakes up in the dark,

And he cannot see anything,

He will naturally feel fear and amazement, because this is the nature of humans.

Humans fears of the unknown and death.

However, Ramon felt a sense of belonging and intimacy.

Ramon felt as if the darkness was attracting him and calling him to possess him and to merge with him, to become a part of him.

He seemed to be living an exceptional experience, as he interacted uniquely with this dark world.

"All right..."

Ramon remembered the last thing he did before he found himself here.

He slept quietly after reading some negative and provocative comments about his latest novel.

"So where am I?"

Ramon rubbed his chin slowly.

He quickly took out his mobile phone from his left pocket.

CLICK

Ramon turned on the phone's back light.

Then he muttered positively :

" As I expected, I'm not blind. I'm really in a dark place."

" I tried to call the police, but noticed there was no transmission in the area."

"So weird. Was I really kidnapped?!!!!"

" Hmm, do I have enemies I don't know? "

Soon, silence returned to the place,

Ramon wandered aimlessly for a while, but he couldn't answer the questions popping up in his mind.

His mind was currently in chaos right now.

For some unknown reason, he felt like déjà vu,

It's like he's been in this place so many times.

" Right now, I have two possibilities. What's more likely is that I died in my sleep, and then this is my hell that God created to punish me. Hmm, the second is that I am in the middle of one of the nightmares, which I do not remember when I wake up."

Ramon continued to wander silently, hoping to find a way out as soon as possible.

"Huh?"

Then, gradually, Ramon began soon to believe in the first possibility.

"I really died"

"It's okay"

He easily accepted his fate.

" Fortunately, there are no demons to torture me."

" Hmm, death is inevitable, but I didn't expect the Angel of death to seize my soul so early. Well, it's not that bad. My miserable life and my strange jinx are gone."

" Death is also a manifestation of relief and comfort."

" I'm exhausted."

"I just want to sleep lazily."

Ramon laid quietly on the floor.

" Man, I wish I had a bed or a few blankets. I can even accept sleeping in a tent."

" Forget it. I'll get used to it."

Ramon remained in his position for who knows how long.

A few years, maybe.

Maybe a few decades.

No one ever knew.

Every time Ramon woke up, he found himself in the dark again.

Then he fell asleep again,

Ramon repeated this cycle for a lot of time.

Wake up,

Then sleep.

For some strange reason, Ramon didn't need to eat or to relieve himself in the toilet.

All he needs to do is sleep.

Ramon strangely liked his alternative lifestyle.

He felt as if he had fulfilled his eternal desire, which is laziness forever.

"Huh, how long has it been?" "

Ramon smiled coldly as he thought about his past life.

[This place doesn't have the concept of time.]

A thick voice answered Ramon suddenly, making him open his eyes quickly.

He couldn't move because of the stiffness of his body, so all he could do was move his eyes to stare in all directions in search of the source of the sound.

" Hello"

Ramon shouted loudly in the complete darkness,

But no one answered him.

He kept shouting repeatedly.

But all Ramon faced was silence.

After a long time, he gave up the search, saying in a cold voice,

" Interesting. Am I hallucinating? Does this place affect my mind negatively? "

"I don't remember very well the scientific term for mental loneliness. "

Suddenly, two gigantic eyes opened in total darkness, revealing a breathtaking panorama of stars and galaxies within them.

[You don't hallucinate. I exist. ]

The creature spoke in a thick, automatic voice.

"Oh, let me guess. You are the warden, and you have come to see the condition of the prisoner."

[No, I am here to achieve our goal in order to rise again.]

Ramon's face had a look that said, 'What is this creature talking about?'

[You could say that I am the remains of a fearsome creature that ruled the Endless Realms for ages past.]

" Interesting. So there are other worlds? Are there other races like you in the infinite worlds? So, the concept of multiple worlds really exists..."

Ramon continued to ask various questions to the first creature he had met in a long time.

But all Ramon received again was silence.

[… ]

"What a boring creature you are."

Ramon closed his eyes to arrange his scattered thoughts.

After a while, Ramon broke the wheel of silence again, saying coldly :

" Huh, so what's the point of me being locked up here? "

Ramon stared at the creature as he waited for an answer to his question.

Soon, the strange creature answered him, saying :

[You are not a prisoner. I am trying to erase the remnants of @ # @ @ $ # in order to start our revenge. ]

" What did you say ?"

[Huh, you'll understand me when the time comes. You will soon return to your world.]

"What?"

"Am I leaving? "

Unfortunately, Ramon didn't feel the enthusiasm or craving for freedom.

All he felt was the desire to stay here and sleep forever.

His heart voluntarily chose to stay in this place.

[I see that you still retain your original primal desire. But, unfortunately, you have to leave in order to achieve our old goal. You will know it when the time comes, so become stronger. Use my little gift for # @ # # @ @.]

" Huh, whatever you said."

Ramon soon lost interest in the giant eyes floating near him, then closed his eyes to go back to sleep.

The last thing he heard from the strange creature or whatever it was [Good luck.]

Then Ramon dived into his dreams.

....

"Huh?"

Ramon opened his eyes, this time, to find a bright light amidst the total darkness.

The light continued to approach him at an incomprehensible speed.

He quickly remembered what the strange creature had previously said.

'You will soon return to your world.'

" Shit, motherfucker."

Ramon let out a loud shout and the radiant light quickly swallowed him up.

....

" Your Majesty, wake up, too much sleep will make your whole body stiff..."

Ramon opened his eyes quickly because of a loud sound that bothered his sleep.

He analyzed his situation quickly,

"Hah, I'm really back."

Ramon quickly gritted his teeth and said angrily,

" Son of a bitch, wait for me until I get back."

"Huh…"

He quickly pulled himself together.

Then he stared coldly at the person in front of him, saying :

" Who are you ?" "

In front of him is a young woman with silky yellow hair and slightly attractive green eyes. She also wears worn-out servant clothes.

And bears on her face the features of innocence and bewilderment at the same time.

" Are you ill, Your Majesty? " "

The blonde girl answered Ramon's question by asking another question.

" Who are you? Who am I? And where am I now?" "

Ramon repeated his questions without paying attention to her stupid questions.

" If I am your master, answer my questions."

The young maid quickly lowered her head as a sign of obedience and then said :

"I am Emilia Bosen, Your Majesty's personal maid at the Royal Palace."

Emilia hesitated for a few seconds and then added :

" You are Samuel Hanover, the sun and moon of our empire, the 18th emperor of the Holy Dynasty of Hanover, the current emperor of the Griffin Empire."

" Hanover, where have I heard this name? "

Ramon muttered these words while scratching his chin without paying attention to the stiff maid in front of him.

" Huh, so going back to my world meant getting into my last novel."

"Fucking asshole."

" But, it's interesting."

The corners of Ramon's lips twisted eerily, creating a devilish smile on his face that greatly frightened the poor maid, Emilia.
