"Kichu, wake up." A relaxing, feminine voice echoed around him.
"Mom, is that you?" Kichu woke up and searched for the voice.
"I'm here, son."
"Where? I can't see you."
"Here," the voice called to Kichu.
He walked and found himself in a jungle.
"Where am I?" He looked around, noticing the large trees everywhere.
"Looking for someone?" A black shadow appeared before him.
"Who are you?" Kichu stood there, shocked.
"Who am I? Haha... my identity isn't important. What is important is you. Do you have any idea who you are? Your future?" the shadow asked.
"My future? What about it?"
"You were happy and enjoyed every bit of your life on Earth. Now, you purposefully entered hell. And you have no concern about your future?"
"Heaven or hell, I don't care! I love to explore, and that's what I’ll do."
"There is nothing worth exploring in hell," the shadow replied.
"Someone once said that both heaven and hell exist on Earth. So, I'm out of hell. Now, tell me, who are you?"
"Lecturing you is a waste of time. I'll give you two options. They're not really options, but two paths that will decide your future."
"I don’t want your options. Where am I?"
"One, you can go back to Earth, where a great life awaits you. Live your life to the fullest. Don't worry, you have a long life ahead."
"What's the second option?"
"The path that leads to unimaginable pain. The path that will... change your life. If you continue your journey, you'll see real hell. People will die in front of you while you watch helplessly. Is this the path you want?"
"Yeah, I like the sound of it. I don't believe in fortune-telling. I don't want to go back to Earth, okay? That's all."
The shadow stood quietly and slowly moved away from him.
"Then it's goodbye. Remember, you chose this path yourself. By doing so, you chose the fate of those around you as well."
"What does that mean? Hey…"
"We'll meet soon, Kichu. Prepare yourself."
"Hey, stop there!" Kichu ran after the shadow.
Suddenly, the jungle disappeared, and he began to fall.
"Nooo..." He woke up in his bed, shocked.
He was sweating and panting heavily.
"What was that? Was that you?" He looked at the sword and asked.
He walked into the control room, where Roco was eating his breakfast.
"Where are we? It's been three days," Kichu asked Roco.
"We'll arrive shortly. Texa mentioned something about black holes or something, which is why we're delayed." Roco got up and washed his hands.
"So, what's next?" Roco asked.
"We're low on funds. Get to the planet, search for money, and get back," Kichu replied.
"We can do bounty hunting if you want."
"That's a bit risky. But if we don’t get money, we can do that too." Kichu went to the kitchen.
"Rururu... We've entered the independent region. The nearest planet is Galactic-30. Awaiting confirmation to land," Texa announced.
