Selena Edranne, a powerfull hunter who single handedly finish an entire s - ranks dungeon without breaking a sweat.
Many admire her, but most feared and resented her.
They say all her strength and power comes from blessings of a god. But that wasn't true, infact, it was the complete opposite of a blessing, a curse. It's also the result of repetition and hard work.
"System"
Her voice sounds exhausted. She just finished another final boss.
Then a screen pops up out of things air.
Congratulation on your win against the final boss : Dragon lord.
With this win, you've secured your 99th medal!
"Yeah yeah, just get me to the other world already, so that this damn curse will get lifted"
Ofcourse, but... Because it's your last world, we have a special trip for you!
Selena tilted her head, her eyes gaze upon the text with unimpressed and unpatient expression.
"Just get it done"
Alright, but this time i won't be able to always look after you. This is a special trip after all! That means you have to figure out things on your own, but don't worry, i'll still pop up to help once or twice.
Loading new world. Please wait for a second.
She only let out her sigh, and turned her head up to the dungeon ceilling.
"So i guess this world will be different from the others i've faced. I wonder, what surprise await me.
Hope it's not a dungeon type anymore. I truly had enough of it, or... It could be the one of the romance's... Just don't make me become the second wife or something, haha...ha, how funny. I guess i just hated every single word type aren't i? Heh..."
World loading completed. Hope you enjoy it!
Selena's surrounding was illuminated, the light's burn her eyes so she shut them tight, avoiding the blinding shine.
'Damn, i can never get used to this stupid light! Even after 99 Times!'
She never expected anything to begin with. Her mind's blank. She just wants this to end already, afterall she's just waiting to come back, where she belongs.
When Selena opens her eyes, she wasn't alone. Even if the dark covered to the corner of the room, her hunter instinct could see throught it.
With only one source of light, who comes from her up left side. It was a window. The gentle light comes from the quiet moon outside, spreading all over the sky, with the help of the stars who danced beside it.
'how beautiful'
The last time she was in a dungeon, and there never was a chance to stop and admire the beauty that surrounded her.
She must always be wary, or she'll die and have to work from the start of that life again.
It's the thing she's avoiding most.
'how can a dungeon be so beautiful? Wait, this isn't a dungeon! And there's people beside me! Where am i?!'
Beside her the is some children who looked... exhausted.
They even snort and talk in their sleep. Some even had tears in their eye corner, yet they still deep in their slumber.
'they're so noisy... I should gather informations first'
Selena wake upfrom her place, usually whenever she started a new world, she always started as a baby.
'Yet now i'm walking around... But this body's still small tho... Considering how tall the door and the table.'
She sneaked around carefully and finally got out of the house.
She looked at the front of the house, there's a hanging banner wich tell the identity of the house, and her's too.
The Orchid Orphanage
'haha...ha...
I'm an orphan, isn't it amazing? Well, i've always fated to be an orphan anyway, i guess it's better than having to see the death of your parents every time.
Well...'
She looked around for a bit before looking at her self.
'This is probably a village... Sure, change the vibe from modern to vintage are we?
And i'm guessing... This body is at least 5 years.
Well, i'll have to deal with it someho-. Ugh?!!'
Suddenly a strong burst of pain strike her head, Selena saw a flashing light, but her head is just unbearable, she fall to the ground while still holding her head tight.
'What is this?! It hurts! Dang it, i ain't gonna faint in the front door, especially not when i'm in a forest! I'm not gonna die this qui-'
She fainted on the cold ground.
But before her sight went off, Selena saw a glipmse of something,
A memory, Perhaps?
But it isn't her's, even though they seem somewhat familiar to Selena.
"Mother... Do you have to go? Can't you just stay here with _____?"
Not a word come out of her mouth, just a gentle smile, and warm hand that pats the head.
"Please... Stay..."
