February 28, 1985. Until the day I was born.” I said as I grasped the bloodied and worn amulet.

Lub-dubbed. Lub-dubbed.
Consistent rhythm resonated in my world. It must have sounded like my mother's heartbeat, and there must have been amniotic fluid covering my naked body. So when I opened my eyes, the darkness was more soothing than the darkness in the basement.
I was in my mother's womb.
His heartbeat quickly brought to mind my recollection of the despair I felt that forced me to turn back time and flee to the past.
Everything was as I expected. I need comfort like this.
That's why my mom, just listening to her heartbeat makes my eyes heavier. It's been a while since I've been tired. The feeling of drowsiness made me feel a deep sense of pleasure, and the thought of finally being able to sleep excited me. At least, until I get too excited, then my drowsiness goes away. I tried to close my eyes with my hands to try to fall asleep.
However, my tiny arms and legs were out of my control and I accidentally touched the wall of my mother's womb.
I heard my mother's muffled voice, and her heartbeat became louder than hers. From his light tone, he was probably too excited and woke up my father to tell him that I was kicking.
There is a reason why I chose to go back to the date I was born and not to the next day or time after I grew up. It was because that person had told me about a rare achievement to be had. In my opinion, some secrets, such as the process of obtaining rare achievements, are more important than anything else in life.
Actually, he didn't really tell me these things. Instead, I found what he wanted to hide. She had awakened in her mother's womb. In fact, she may be the only pre-resurrection that retains her entire memory as a fetus. Overcoming adversity is the nature of the character that made him famous and I accidentally discovered the achievement he received for it. This achievement has made him the most powerful of the Eight Evils and the Eight Virtues.
Most people have experienced the process of overcoming adversity, which is pushed out of their mother's womb through the birth canal.
However, that ability to manifest adversity and pain becomes a reality that decides whether one deserves the title of 'Man Overcoming Adversity'.
After all, no one remembers what really happened when they were born. There were some people who claimed to have fetal memories like her, but they were unable to recall the difficult difficulties they had to overcome in order to get out into this world.
But he says that the most painful moment of his entire life is passing through the birth canal and if we all remember what it feels like, we have no choice but to love ourselves. That's why he's so narcissistic even though he's not handsome.
Is it really painful to pass through the birth canal?
***
I think something's wrong. I knew it would hurt but it didn't get that far.
The pressure of suffocating me from all directions was beyond my ability to handle.
The amniotic fluid that was supposed to protect me wasn't enough. Also, my body is so big that it fills every space in my mother's womb.
As a fragile fetus, I was crushed in this narrow space under great pressure. It felt really like my fat was melting, my muscles were being destroyed, and all the bones in my body were being destroyed.
In the outside world, my soft flesh would usually be injured by the slightest pressure, and it did not protect me here. It was just something else that needed to be compacted into a compactness that was impossible to pass through the birth canal.
It was clear that it would all be over for me if I cried in the middle of labor. But even so, I still wanted to open my mouth and shout. As soon as I opened my mouth, a liquid-like substance forced its way into my mouth with immense pressure. If I shut my mouth a little later, I will kill not only myself but also my mother.
My mind became empty.
All I could think of was the endless pain. I am so anxious to be free from this hell that I will even consider joining the Eight Abominable Evil and Eight Benevolent Virtues in this life.
I thought I was in pain at first, but the pain I experienced when my skull was compressed at the end of the canal was beyond my imagination. If this continues any longer, I think my skull will be destroyed. I may have died because I felt my brain being squeezed through my nose and eyes. The only way to end this pain is to hang me with the umbilical cord.
The right time I want to give up is when I hear my mom crying softly.
Hello Mother.
***
Looking back, the entire process of being squeezed through the birth canal may not take more than thirty minutes. However, it felt over thirty hours due to the never ending pain.
Is there something wrong with that job? How can childbirth be so painful? Is everyone going through this hell just to be born?
I don't believe that humans were created like this. Despite all my suffering, my mother was the only reason I did not give up. I knew that she was in a lot of pain because I could not only hear her moans but I could also feel the uterine wall vibrate.
I am not alone in this fight. I was with my mother.
Immediately, my mother gathered her strength with tears and the direction of the suffocating pressure I suddenly turned around. In my time of despair, I donated my own weak strength as a newborn to the force that pushed me out.
As soon as my skull was free from the pressure, I let out a shout that I had been holding.
I can finally cry. The world instantly became brighter.
Thank you, Mother, with all my heart.
“Waa, waa.”
