This boxer monkey is probably gonna kill me right now so let me get away from him.

I ran as fast as I could but this monkey has been on my heels since he saw me. He occasionally tried to hit me with a pattern which I almost memorised, but I can tell he is losing mana because the power behind his attacks are constantly decreasing. I think it's because of the dragon fruit.

I was running away as fast as I could, and jumped through some thorny bushes. I got a few cuts all over my body but I didn't have the luxury to worry about it , with this shit behind me . The bush might slow him down but . . . . all of a sudden , I lost my balance and fell flat on my face . Looking at my feet , I saw it was tangled up in some roots . I heard the monkey closing distance and coming to beat me up. I think I just reserved a ticket to heaven .

The monkey punched and kicked with the same pattern so I did dodge some blows but the ones that hit me were too strong. But his attacks were a lot slower and weaker than before, I think my turn to take revenge had come.

I tried to return the hits but with this body although It didn't hurt him much and he almost dodge all my hits. Only one of my weak punch hit him and I think that made him angrier than he was before. It's a nice thing that he is angry, now he will waste more energy and mana and I may have a chance to win with the least damage .

Just like I thought , he is busy hitting a tree and I have a chance to escape. I moved very slowly but the monkey threw a small twig in my direction which seems to have penetrated my skin and a grunt escaped my throat. The monkey came near me with full force but his punch was too slow and I easily dodged it. My body feels a bit heavy, I can see golden and white particles getting inside my forearm, the part where the twig scraped my skin.

This is the first time these particles got inside me. I think the monkey isn't that slow like it seems to be,but maybe its because of these magic particles that the monkey punches seems to appear slower than its actually is. These particles, what are they, but as they got inside my body it felt weird but rather comforting, they are actually helping me.

While I was sorting my thoughts, the monkey's fist got near me but I got hold of it and twisted it. The monkey wailed like he got hit for real this time. These particles are really helping and it also seems like the monkey has almost used all its energy. I pushed the monkey into those thorny bushes, he shrieked , but I couldn't care less and I picked up a sharp small branch which was near me -- thanks to this monkey for punching the tree recklessly-- and pushed it inside the monkey's small chest. The monkey tried to get away but his body was tangled up in the bushes, finally after a few seconds of resisting,the monkey gave up . He was dead.

I got up , the morning sun was almost out, I tried to walk away but it felt like all my energy left my body and so I fell right next to the monkey's body . A lot has happened in the past few days, I got killed by a Cerberus looking monster but I didn't die. I met an actual Celestial - Lucifer, and killed this monkey. What worse things could happen now.

My stomach growled, I really need to eat something, anything, I can't back out after coming all this way.I somehow managed to pull myself up and then looked around for something to eat , something came onto my mind, the monkey ate my fruit, then it's fair enough if I eat the monkey right. It's like the saying that goes ' hunt or be hunted ' .

I stared at the monkey's body, and finally I had some good meat to eat and recover. It's about time I started eating the meat. It is really spongy and so so delicious, at least it feels delicious.

As I ate ,the particles inside me kind of disappeared leaving the weird feeling in my torso. But at the same time another form of energy was running through my blood, my senses feels like it got and upgrade, i could hear the chirping of the birds more clearly, the movement of the wind through the bushes, the sound of the water stream far away and a sweet humming sound of a girl.

Huh ,a humming sound, it feels similar to the one I heard when I was born. It's really soothing, perhaps is she my actual mother? .

I walked towards the direction of the humming sound, it isn't that far out, and the closer I came,the clearer it got.

I passed through the bushes to see who the girl is and saw a beautiful figure of a woman in the Nuns outfit, plucking out some fruits,she had wheat blonde hair and beautiful long eyelashes . She turned and her pearl blue eyes looked straight at me. She looks like she's in her twenties.

"Ara", she squeaked as she covered her mouth with her hand .

She rushed towards me ." Ara, who are you child"

I wanted to say I'm a monster with two tails, but I held back.

" Hmmm, you look so pale and weak ,are you ok?" She asked with a serious look on her face.

' of course I'm not ok' I thought, is she a dense woman.

" Oh God what do I do" she then looked at her basket, and it looked like she just got an idea " ah! You, do you want some? "

I couldn't say anything, no words came out of my mouth. I'm still feeling weak but I want to remove the taste of raw meat from my mouth , so I held my hand forward to take the fruit. She smiled and gave me a fruit which looked like peach.

" Eat this, it's sweet like honey" she said with a smile on her face.

As I took the bite, I felt myself crying.

" Oh my, don't worry , you've done well until now" she encouraged me, even though she doesn't know what had happened.

I don't know how ,but as I took my second bite,I blacked out, probably because of the recoil of stressing this body too much.

I was covered in darkness once again, but it wasn't painful like the other times. I could see a faint light up ahead. Hmm should I follow the light, well I can't do anything else anyways.

After a while I finally reached the point where the light was being reflected. It was just a small white particle, I touched it and…

' Argh this headache ' I was lying on a wooden bed, which was quite comfortable. Where am I? I questioned myself, I was in a dimly lit room, with white paint on the wall.

" How did I get here?" I questioned myself once again.

" I brought you in" the nuns' voice came from outside the room.

She opened the room by pushing it with her shoulder as she was carrying a tray with a bowl on it.

" How are you? Are you feeling well?" She asked as she kept the tray on a wooden table and put her palm on my forehead to measure my temperature.

" Hmm, it seems like you're a bit fine now," she said with the same smile on her face which I had seen earlier.

" Here eat this porridge" she held the bowl in her hand and pushed the spoon of porridge right in my mouth.

' hmmmff, it's hot ' 

" Oh I'm so sorry", she took a cloth and wiped my face.

" Here , I'll feed you more gently now" she said sarcastically.

Well one of the perks of being in a small child's body is that you can get fed by a beautiful women like her.

" Ok now that you're done eating, why don't you rest a bit" she said as she pulled up the blanket up till my shoulder." If you need anything just call for me ok" she left the room after saying this.

*************************

I got up and looked around the room, I could hear the nun - I should've asked her name- humming again, she has a beautiful voice.

I got out of the room and found myself at the end most part of the gallery. The walls were painted with a tree root design all over it following the part of the gallery. Outside the gallery, there were a few bushes which were trimmed professionally.' No flowers huh' I thought, is this because of Lucifer's curse?. Even in the novel, there wasn't any part where any flowers were mentioned, but the Celestial didn't play any important part in the novel as well, or did they? All these thoughts were coming to my mind as I followed the humming sound on the other end of the gallery.

Various sculptures of various figures were built on the sides of the the few pillars up ahead , looking at them makes it obvious that this is a Church.

I opened the big brown wooden door and walked in a long hallway which was followed by a set of Pews. Up ahead was a big white sculpture of a beautiful women holding a bouquet of flowers made with marble, behind her was an even larger sculpture of a big tree going through the roof ,but my focus was only on the women's sculpture,she was not only beautiful but a positive aura was emitting from within her.

"Aurora" said a voice from behind me, it echoed throughout the room as it was quite empty.

I looked behind and saw the nun standing there with a broom in her hand .

" She's Aurora, the Goddess of Music and love" she said with a hint of great respect in her voice

"Aurora!" I said . I've heard it somewhere, in the novel?

" Be grateful child, you're at the only Church in the entirety of Alesworth, the great City, in the western region of Elysian".

'Huh, whaaat!' There's no way, how is this even possible? I remember now ,this name , Alesworth and the church that worships the Goddess Aurora, shouldn't exist.

In the novel the Aurora Church was demolished and taken over by the people who worships the great Goddess ' Huxiana'- She's one of the few goddess who's name was ever mentioned in the novel- but because this Church was the origin of music , which the people thought of it as some sort of prayer,but some other cultural believers couldn't stand it so they took the church down.

But how's this possible? The name of this region and the church were both supposed to be taken down around three thousand years ago.

I was lost in my thoughts, I had so many questions and no answers ,but I can't sit back and just look for Solis, I need to know more about this world . I know I'm in Elysian,and this is the same Elysian from the novel but there are many things that weren't mentioned or supposed to happen .

" Ummm, hello" the nun looked at me with a questioning look on her face.

" Ahh! I... I'm sorry..".I stuttered.

She chuckled before she said " Its ok , take it easy"

" I'm Mable Becks, the one and only informer of the great Goddess Aurora" she said with an awe inspiring look on her face.

"And you are?" she asked me.

" I'm yu...." I stopped before saying her my name. I don't want to be known as 'Yuki'. Someone who have no dream of his own, without an aim in life ....I don't want to be someone like that. In this life , I have something like a dream, that is, to be beside Solis , to see his worldly deeds from my own eyes , to be someone even he can rely on.

" I ..." ,I looked at her " I don't have a name."She looked at me with an amused look on her face.

" Hmmm and how did you get there ,in the the forest?" she questioned." You're already so pale,then you must've been there for quite some time , I wonder how you survived,as there are monsters more terrifying than a walking nightmare."

" I... I guess ,it's because, I'm maybe imm....cough!" Ack!! What ,it felt like somebody held me by my throat.

" Are you fine ".Mable said as she got me a glass of water." Here , take it easy ok".

" Tha .. thanks " it felt like I was going to die" I meant to say that even I don't know what's happening with me, Maybe I'm imm.. cough cough "argh! Again ,my neck ,it feels like someone is squeezing my neck the moment I'm about to say that I'm immortal.

" Its ok dear, can you atleast tell me where your parents are?".

" I'm sorry, I don't remember anything " I said, for now I'll just pretend to have amnesia until I've figured out what's going on .

" Oh my" she gasped " but don't you worry anymore alright, I'll keep you safe, until I'll find your parents".

"Hmmm ,but i can't just call you ' boy' or 'child' all the time"

Eh ,why though,Alice and that a*shole Eddy called me 'Boy' for four years straight.

" Ahh ,then, can I name you? " She asked me with excitement glowing in her eyes.

Is she for real, but well it would be nice to have a name.

So I just nodded.

"Alright then" she looked at the Goddesses Sculpture before looking at me again" From now on you're Saul Amaris"

"Saul Amaris?" I looked at her with curiosity, my face probably had the questioning look asking ' why this name though ', because she laughed and said " Your hair colour reminds me of the moon, and so 'Amaris' which means 'child of the moon' and talking with you doesn't feel like I'm talking to a child yet I can feel that your heart is like a child who yearns for questions and so 'Saul' which could also be pronounced as 'Soul' in some accent" Her voice echoed throughout the room.

She patted my head " And so like a pure soul of the moon you're 'Saul Amaris '".
