Chapter 1 Unknown World
After a few moments, his chest began to rise and fall, indicating that he was breathing.
The boy opened his eyes, stood up, and looked around him, perplexed.
'What am I doing?' was his initial thought.
The room is decorated in a medieval theme, and there are no signs of modern gadgets inside.
'Did I travel in the past, then?' ' he reflected.
His name was Fein Rizal, and he was a Filipino college student from the 21st century when various novels and films were published daily.
He was taken aback by the situation, but he had a hazy idea of what had occurred.
He examined his body in the mirror. He had an average face, hair that slightly covered his eyes like those emos in the '90s in his previous life, and his looks were not particularly attractive, but they were not really ugly.
He looked over his body... There was a large cut that was healing at a rapid pace that could be seen with the naked eye. He was so shocked by the situation that he felt a chill crawl up his back. He quickly examined the room again, this time more carefully, so as not to miss any details that might give him a hint as to what was going on... Then, beside the table, there was a blood-splattered knife.
'Hmm, is that blood mine? 'Well, I'm the only one in here, plus the cut on my chest,' he quickly deduced from the clues provided.
'So the original owner of this body took his own life, but why?'' He pondered.
He has a habit of thinking, which is a good thing because he didn't know whether he had traveled back in time or simply transmigrated to another world due to a lack of information.
'But first, let me clean up the mess and remove any evidence that might lead people to learn about my situation.'
He is unable to inform others that he has taken a person's body. He could be mistaken as a demon in a human body, or he could be used as a guinea pig by organizations that torture him to learn his secrets. He didn't want any of these possibilities.
...
-A few minutes later-
He had already cleaned up the mess and was attempting to recall memories of the original body.
It was a waste of time. Because every time he tried to recall memories, he only saw a hazy scene in which the original owner stabbed his own chest with a knife, and then he tried to recall other things, but he only got a headache.
'Hmmm... so it is confirmed that he committed suicide.'
*Sigh*
He had already confirmed that he was not in his own world; he had read about it in the newspaper, and there are many differences between this world and the earth. This world, it appears, is called Eudemonia rather than Earth.
*Knock* Knock*
A loud knock on the door abruptly interrupted his wandering thoughts.
"Brother, Brother," a worried voice called out.
He adjusted his expression to make a natural smile, he needs to be cautious in the next interaction so that this body's sister does not discover that his brother was possessed, he can't help but curse his bad luck, Because... He had no idea how the original owner acted.
When he opened the door, a girl with shoulder-length hair, white skin, and a delicate face stood there. She wore a green dress that was neither luxurious nor shabby, and she wore a worried expression.
"Brother, our mother was worried about you; she said you hadn't left your room in a few days."
"What happened did you catch a cold? if you have a problem we will help you so tell us," his sister pounced on him, expressing her concern.
Fein was speechless when he met his new sister; he couldn't help but recall his family in his previous world, where he also has a sister with the same personality.
"Fey, I'm fine, I was just busy with the papers," he said, pointing to the jumbled papers on the table.
"Ohh so that's why... don't worry brother, we were confident that you'd pass the graduation exam and eventually become a Physician," Fey replied with a smile.
'Great, if this is true, I can become a famous Physician and become wealthy with my modern knowledge of medicine,' I exclaimed inwardly.
He can now pursue and even exceed his dream because, with his modern knowledge, he can leave his peers in the dust and leave an insurmountable gap.
Although I did not receive the so-called golden finger, I did have prior knowledge of medicine.
"Go to mother and tell her I'm fine; I'll go there after I finish these things," he said as naturally as he could.
"Brother, why is your skin so pale? Why is your tone so strange?" Fey inquired, perplexed.
'Shit, this girl is so perceptive,' I think. 'It's strange that I can speak their language automatically, but my accent from my previous life is still there.'
"Cough"
"I was learning a new language, so I was practicing their way of speaking. Also, your brother needed to draw a blood sample for research purposes," he explained calmly.
Her sister simply smiles at him, relieved.
"All right, I'll go tell Mother."
'That was close,' he reflected.
He realized he was being overly paranoid; after all, his sister is only 16 years old. Her sister was unlikely to suspect him.
'I guess she was just worried, based on her expressions.'
You can't blame him; he was on edge, and he couldn't calm down quickly in such an unfamiliar environment.
...
-1 month later-
He has already adapted to his new life; his mother and sister are both kind to him; his mother owns a bakery, and his sister is a student.
They are not wealthy, but his mother's business provides for their basic needs.
Fein had already passed his exam and received a 1-star Physician license. It is, indeed, a star, not a degree. There are many strange things here, but he has grown accustomed to them.
Now he wants to pursue a 2-star license, and he is confident in his ability to do so. He discovered that his medical knowledge was sufficient to quickly achieve 5-star status. Even with his advantage, however, it will take a long time.
After all, while knowledge is important, so is putting it into practice, and he has the patience for it. Time was the last thing he lacked right now.
