The Strange Life I Live

Conclusions

Two people of different ages are sitting facing each other right now. One who can still be said to be a teenager, is one of the men who sat in that place. Currently, the teenager was still trying to digest whatever the middle-aged man said in front of him patiently.

“Then.. how does the story of the man named Zen go?” the teenager asked then, having finished listening to the story of the prince without the light told to him, by the man in his presence.

“She escaped” replied the man in front of her briefly.

“Kabur?” reply to the teenager.

“Yes. After everything he's been through, he's decided not to trust anyone in the world. So she decided to escape from the hospital that treated her and disappeared from there.” Reply to the middle-aged man then.

“Hmm. He then became strong and became evil and began to avenge all his grudges right?” said the teenager, trying to guess the continuation of the story told by the man in front of him.

“Good guess, but still wrong.” reply the middle-aged lung man.

“Then what happened to him?” the teenager returned, who was still curious about the story of the man named Zen Heilight.

“She died” replied the middle-aged man and made the atmosphere in the room began to be quiet.

Yep. The man named Zen Heilight died, when he fled to a place where he did not know that he entered into a forbidden area, he said, where the area is an area full of monsters.

He could still fight, but when fighting with just one hand, he was unable to fight against the hundreds of monsters that attacked him, especially when his stamina was exhausted, after holding back the monsters that attacked him for several hours continuously.

And that was the end of the man named Zen Heilight, as his body lay lifeless in the middle of the – middle of the forest where some monsters that attacked him earlier, began to disperse and leave his corpse there.

“Hmmm... I did not think his story would be Bad Ending.” said a teenager named Zen after listening to the end of the story of the man whose first name was the same as him.

“Then why did Grandpa tell me all this? Don't tell me that Grandpa will tell me the story of everyone named Zen in this festival?” ask Zen then.

“Hmm...good question.” Said the man called Grandpa and went back to drinking his tea, before explaining his mahsut telling a story to the man in front of him.

“I tell that story, because your soul that is currently sitting in front of me, is the original soul of the body that the man named Zen Heilight used.

“Hah...?! w-what's your mahsut Grandpa?” asked Zen who was confused by his Grandfather's words.

“OK I will explain it briefly” replied Grandpa who is in front of him at this time.

Boredom, that was what this vast universe overseer had experienced. It has been thousands of – thousand years he is doing his job well, but what he is doing makes him very saturated.

But one day, he creates a body that will become his avatar to shade all or one of the universes in order to dispel his feelings of boredom. But a mistake occurred, not that he created an Avatar, but a body that had a soul.

That's what he felt because what he created it, certainly someday will surpass it. Actually he is very happy if there is someone who surpasses him and replaces him later.

But what he feared, if what he created would become evil and cause chaos. Because he could not destroy what he had created, he was forced to separate body and soul from what he created.

He then casts the body of his creation into a world, where he will be born into a powerful royal family, and his soul throws into a human body in a world called earth.

He deliberately made the fate of the soul miserable to see what kind of soul reaction he created it would become. But he was so happy that when the soul had two lives, it did not show the chaos he feared.

“At first I created an Avatar, but I accidentally made my very ideal offspring” said the man who started it all.

“Wait, if you consider me to be your descendant, why are you testing me in such an extreme way?” zen asked, who was slightly upset by the treatment from his Grandfather, about the two strange lives he had lived.

“Of course to prevent what I feared from happening. But it seems that what I fear will not happen, because your current response does not seem to show any grudge to me, for what I have done to your soul” replied Grandfather who was in front of him with a smile plastered on his face.

“Of course I'm angry old man, do you know what I've been up to. Two Slick Lives.” Zen Reply.

“I know, but your soul does not show chaos and makes me very happy” replied the Grandfather of Zen, after seeing no sign of chaos appear on Zen.

“Then..what happens to me next, will you test me back?” ask Zen then.

“Of course not, I've decided to let you live as you want right now, without intervening myself in influencing the fate that you will live” said the Grandfather.

“Truely... Then where is my next life?” Ask Zen then.

“Same world where your real body is”

Back in the place where three people were discussing at the moment. The two women in front of him were just calmly listening to the story of Zen at this time, where Zen had told the beginning of his story.

“So you are from the kingdom of Heilight, where you were hidden by your Grandfather in this world, to prevent yourself from being killed. Then when you drowned before, you were finally saved by him and brought back to your home.” said Irene who made the conclusion of what she heard earlier.

“Yap... like that” Zen said with a smile, after telling his fake story, and hiding the fact that he was the descendant of the strongest man in this universe.

“But I never thought your real family would be that bad as Zen, and also the nobles of the kingdom of Enex would be as bad as it” Irene said later, and was replied to a nod by Vero.

“That's how Kak” lived Zen replied briefly, while spending the drinks he ordered.

The two of them who heard Zen's story were very angry, because they did not expect Zen to be tormented living his life in his home world.

On the other hand, Vero still did not utter a single word, because he still felt guilty about what he did to Zen. But while listening to Zen's previous story, it could be seen that his expression started to change – change while listening to him.

“Then, didn't your right hand get severed, how did you return it?” Irene asked later, after noticing the perfect body of her sister.

Indeed, the man in front of them looks very perfect without any deformities from his body. His scarred face had disappeared from his face, and his right hand, which was visible in his place, was different when Zen told him that his right hand had been severed earlier.

Hearing Irene's question, Zen decides to reorder his depleted drink, as the next story will take a very long time, as it will tell of his life starting from scratch.

“You better reorder a drink or order something to eat, because my next story will be very long” Zen said, calling a waiter.

They began to listen to Zen's words and re-order their drinks. Until a waiter brought their order and Zen began to drink what he ordered and began to look at them seriously.

“Alright, here's my next story..”.
