Isekai: The Dream World

Chapter 2 ~ Is this just a dream?

Total darkness without the slightest light, that's what I see now. I can't feel anything either. Hands and feet cannot be moved, what is this? If I don't remember wrongly, I was exchanging money at the bank. I don't know what happened to me next, so now why am I in total darkness? I guess I'm in now... No, I can't think negatively. Maybe there's a better chance than that.

This dark and creepy situation is usually ordinary people will be immediately frightened and panicked, but Candra can still remain calm because she is used to being in the dark like this because she used to very often suddenly the electricity in her house was cut because it did not pay the bills on time to all the objects that use electricity could not be used including the lights that illuminated his house.

He also suspected that this was just a dream but he complained and grumbled, if this is really a dream why is there only black color? Where did the other colors go?

Before long, I felt something warm, it was really warm like being near a campfire in the woods at night. I slowly opened my eyes. The first thing I saw was the ceiling of the cave. I woke up holding my head which was very painful.

Whoa..duh! Where'sme? The cavern? Why am I in the cave? Am I dead? If I am dead, what is the cause? I really don't remember anything that happened to me before.

There were so many questions in my head but I didn't know who to ask until I finally decided to stand up and look around me, it turned out to be true as I thought what I saw was something that was generally in a cave.

When I looked around I accidentally saw a piece of paper under my feet, the curious took the paper. The paper was written with Javanese script writing, of course I am a native of Java and ever taught Javanese bases can read it easily.

In this paper written in Javanese script which means "goodbye, Arata" in the bottom corner of the right is also written with Javanese script which means "from your beloved mother"

Huh huh? Mammy? Is this perhaps a letter to someone who had this body before me huh? I don't know. It's none of my business, nor do I know her, After all I don't want to know and don't care.

I squeezed it and threw the paper back.

Yosh! If it is true that I have reincarnated, it means that I will start a new life from scratch huh. Maybe at first this will be a little troublesome but that's okay, at least I can reincarnate into a fantasy world like my dreams used to be.

For now...

The first thing that is needed in life is a name, if you do not have a name, people will also find it difficult to know and call him.

Name yes....

I was thinking what new name I would use in my second life. Suddenly the name Arata came to my mind, I also did not know why but it seems like I should use that name.

It's been set yes, my name now is Arata. But if Arata doang a bit less how it is. Looks like I should add another name behind Arata, I want to add the surname of my family in Isekai but I do not know my family name in this world and in the old world I also do not have a surname. If using my last name was also not good enough, on the paper was also not written what the name of the mother's family.

I sighed and continued "huh! So troublesome! What if I make my own last name? Well if in Japan it may be called a surname or surname but in Indonesia there is no such thing. I also don't know if the world will be the same as Japan or not" I thought for a while and decided that I would make a last name of my own.

I sat cross-legged thinking what a cool and beautiful last name for myself. I'm not good at making names, maybe it'll take a long time.

A few hours later. I still thought until I finally found a pretty cool last name Masashi which means true aspiration. Combined means a new true aspiration.

Maybe I just wear that!

I stood up and declared my full name with passion.

"Yosha! From now on my name is Arata Masashi"

A moment after declaring his full name in this desolate cave, my body shone golden for a moment.

What the fuck? Did I gain such immense power in anime? Or become good looking? But I don't think anything changes to me. After all in the anime it was named by a weak being or given the name of another person but I gave my own name. Can it be like that? I don't know. I'd better not give it much attention and I'll have to find a way out of this cave.

Is this a fantasy world? If so, maybe this will be interesting. But there is a shortage of fantasy worlds such as in anime for example the law of the jungle will apply in all corners of this fantasy world. I also do not feel that currently I have a cheating power that is very over power like in anime-anime. Means I have to fight from 0 in this fantasy world, I think fighting from 0 to 100 is more interesting than going straight to a hundred.

The law of the jungle is the law by which the weak will always be treated arbitrarily by the strong.

Well then, there is only one option for me to survive in this crueler world that is I have to be the strongest.

Arata suddenly grew excited and said "yosha!! I will fight in this fantasy world!"

I don't know how long Arata's been walking, but he's sure it's been a while. He walked straight without a destination while looking at the state of the cave. Arata was walking while daydreaming, he thought if he came out of the cave, what would be done next and inadvertently Arata stepped on something like an animal tail. There was an immediate blow to Arata, but Arata responded well and avoided it and jumped back. Arata can avoid it well because in his previous life Arata has mastered several martial arts from various countries.

The green creature was getting angry and attacked Arata repeatedly but Arata could avoid it easily, even Arata threw questions to the creature casually.

"Actually what are you? How green, are you a goblin? No, it doesn't seem. The goblins I know aren't this big. Are you a new kind of Isekai creature? You are a strange creature yes" Arata increasingly convinced after seeing this big green creature, that he is currently in a fantasy world like in the anime.

The creature still continues to attack Arata but Arata can still avoid it easily and Arata apologizes casually as if this creature is not a meaningful threat to him "sorry, I just accidentally stepped on it. Was that really painful? I'm sorry, I know I'm wrong but there's no need to be so angry as you know!" the creature is still angry and continues to attack Arata but Arata still has no sign of going back to attack the creature.

This creature looks big green with a height of about 250 cm, his body is like a human but he has a tail, balding, and his skin color is green all over his body.

"It seems you don't forgive me huh. Then, I'll play a little with you!" when the creature's head was within range, Arata immediately launched a kick of his right foot towards the creature's head so hard and fast that the creature could not avoid it. The creature was hit by Arata's kick and bounced far enough a few meters back to smash a bit of the cave wall.

"What's wrong? You were so mad at me that you wanted to kill me, right? Then get up! Let's get this over with quickly! You idiot!" Arata taunts the creature with a smile, but clearly Arata's smile is not a well-meaning smile.

Arata walked slowly towards the creature while continuing his provocation "it turns out you're not too strong huh!" The creature was finally willing to stand up despite the stagger.

The creature went straight to Arata and then carried out another blow but the attack this time was very weak compared to earlier, even Arata could dodge his attack more easily.

Arata mocked the creature again. "What's wrong? Where was your strength? Time suddenly disappeared? Is there really a big power and speed you had a time limit huh?"

Arata thinks that this creature is now really weak right now and this is a good time to launch another counterattack. Arata immediately attacked him with a snore up and hit him with his right hand down very hard to touch the cave floor to cause signs/holes and cracks on the cave floor.

Inadvertently Arata's eyes saw something like an arrow but it was only about 5 cm long. It was similar to the animal dope arrows in Arata's previous world. Arata now understands, maybe not because of Arata's attack that made the creature weakened but this small bullet.

Arata was astonished, why his current body felt so light and strong. It was of course because he had reincarnated into a new world with a new body as well. Arata wondered, since when was there that dope arrow? Is it when Arata fights him? But Arata did not feel the presence of people or other creatures from a range of 10 meters away.

Arata is very curious about the object and wants to touch it but he remembers a past incident that almost made him die from seeing a foreign object and then touch it without knowing what it is.

Arata sat down where he is now and said casually to the green creature that was certainly dead.

"the fight was quite exciting to know, but unfortunately there are those who interfere with our one-on-one fight huh. The guy who did that is really a coward, isn't he?" Arata insulted the person who was disrupting the duel but no one showed up, it was definitely because there was no one within 10 meters of it.

Arata stood up and said "goodbye" Arata who did not want to spend his time in vain went to leave the scene of the crime (tkp).

Shortly after Arata left TKP. There are so many red creatures so small, they are so numerous that they look like sand that is being***** those green creatures. It turns out that the dope arrow was not from humans but from a mysterious creature that controls this very small creature. The green creature vanished and disappeared somewhere.
