He sighed in relief when it became peaceful once again. He was glad that he was alive and not dead. And the abilities granted to him are interesting.
However, what wasn't interesting was being bombarded with several pieces of information and repeating information (a spam message) thanks to the Eye Patron.
It was a relief that the End Patron had silenced the Eye.
This new experience as an Archivist and Avatar was interesting and strange.
Other than the robotic voice of Magnus Archives System, now there are other voices or prompts in different tones.
Eventually, after digesting the information and his new circumstances, he blinked his eyes open and decided to welcome this new world.
He was assaulted by light for a few seconds before the sight in front of him became clear and not something painful to look at.
It was a plain white ceiling.
Something that wasn't very interesting to spend your time staring at.
Gazing at the plain white ceiling, he can feel something placed on his face. There was something attached to his hands and reproductive system.
For a second, he wondered if he was still a male in this new body.
While he was entertaining himself with those strange thoughts, a sudden blaring and loud noise startled him.
' Wha?! '
It was noisy. He wanted it to shut down. Moving his hands, he suddenly felt a prickling and painful ache.
A few minutes later, he heard the sound of a door opening while he was still staring at the ceiling and trying to get up.
" Kid, stay down and don't move! "
A gruff adult male voice shouted.
' Footsteps... There wasn't just one person who entered here. Is this a room? '
After concluding that there was more than one person who entered, he tried to reply but found that the thing blocking his face wasn't allowing him to speak clearly.
" Just keep calm, kid! Contact his parents immediately! "
The gruff adult male voice once again shouted. This time, it was directed toward the other people that entered the room.
" Yes, sir! "
One of the people responded. It was a female voice. The voice was calm and mellow. It was very pleasant unlike the shrill annoying beeping sound and the voice of the gruff adult male.
Among the beeping and shouting, it also registered to him that he was being called a kid.
' I'm a kid now? '
He can feel a pout forming on his face at that thought. Eventually, the annoying and loud beeping noise stopped.
However, different from his expectations it wasn't calmly shut down by the gruff adult male.
He heard the sound of a metal being bash and bash continuously before the beeping device stopped. It was now broken.
He can feel his heart beat faster than normal as a result of that man's unusual behavior.
' He's crazy. '
He concluded inside his mind. Yet, he doesn't feel any fear or chill in his body other than the fast beating of his heart. It was the opposite.
The crazy man's behavior makes him excited for some reason. He can feel the blood rushing towards his body. The sound that the man makes and the other person in the room and their smell register very clearly in his head.
His mind became fixed on them.
He wanted whatever causing pain in his hand and whatever was stuck in his reproductive organs and face to be removed so that he could start hunting and chasing them...
He wanted them to start running away in fear and he would chase them how long they wanted and can until they can no longer move...
Or maybe he could allow them to rest and feel a little safety a little bit before he started hunting them once again.
Repeating the constant cycle of chasing and chasing eternally...
The change in his vision and body position startled him out of his thoughts.
He now saw the gruff adult male and the other remaining person inside the room.
The gruff adult male was dressed in doctor's clothes and he was holding a hammer in his hand. The other person was dressed in a nurse outfit while there was a belt attached to her waist with so many injections placed on it with strange green liquids inside them.
He was in a hospital bed. This body that he was inhabiting was in a hospital as a patient. The thing blocking his face was an oxygen mask. The sting in his hands is IV drip needles to supply nutrients while the body is unconscious. As for the thing stuck on his reproductive organ, it is a catheter.
He was thankful for them distracting him from the strange thoughts that he had earlier. If he ended up harming the doctor and the nurse, he was certain that he would end up in this new world's version of jail which he doesn't want to happen.
He was supposed to be hunting, not being locked up.
Gazing at the broken beeping machine into pieces, the other result was probably him being constantly assaulted with a hammer by this crazy doctor in front of him.
Either of those two is terrible results.
A few hours later, the parents of the former owner of the body arrived.
