Immortal Era's Crafting Master 2 Rebirth

Imperial City, Downtown Area.

Yonmu Imperial Hospital.

In a VIP room, we currently find a young man in his twenties resting on a bed with a few machines beside him making beeping sounds. This young man could not be considered as handsome but he was above average in looks.

He has short, black hair and dark brown skin, signifying that he's of mixed descent. His body could not be called bulky or muscular since his body was more on the slim side but he does have some well developed muscles underneath his hospital gown so lean would be what most people used.

He was fairly tall, reaching 183cm in height and weighed roughly 70kg. Currently, there were a few cords sticking out of his arms, connected to the machines next to the bed and he was sleeping quite peacefully with no change to the peace of the room.

A few minutes later, however, we find the young man jumping up from his sleep and instantly surveying the room around him with a sharp but cautious glint in his eyes. Finding no one around him, the young man eased a bit of the caution from his eyes, but he then started checking out the various things in the room he did not recognize.

His eyes pa.s.sed over the various machines making noises in the room as well as the cords connecting his body to said machines with a bit of curiosity but did not touch them. He then looked around the room, which was in a bright white color and saw the sunlight peering through the gaps in the curtains covering the windows. Seeing that the surroundings weren't a threat and that he was in a medical facility of some sort being treated, the young man returned to lying back down in the bed and going over his thoughts.

'What the h.e.l.l happened to me? How am I still alive?'

The young man thought back to his final memory before blacking out, which was of him fighting Alladin next to the river. He remembered killing the man before falling into the river back first. He even remembered having settled on the bottom of the river bed and releasing his final sigh in that life.

Up to there the young man had no trouble remembering but as soon as he tried to think of what happened next, he immediately struck with a sense of realization, followed by a splitting headache. He remembered, just before blacking out, there was a red glow emanating from his body and that it was coming from where he had that mysterious bead on his body. He had no time to dwell on this thought, however, as the headache forced him to black out once again, only this time his body slightly twitching in a few places.

...

One hour later.

Currently we find a young woman in her mid to late twenties walking up to the VIP room. Beside this woman we find a few men dressed in black suits shadowing her. As they got to the room door, the woman turned to the men and gave them a nod before entering the room. The men, in turn took up their places outside the door, waiting for the woman's return.

Inside the room, we find the young woman look at the young man currently asleep on the bed. Seeing that he wasn't awake, the young woman went and opened the curtains a bit to let more light into the room. She also cracked open the windows to allow fresh air to enter. Completely unaware to the woman was that the young man on the bed was currently eyeing through the small gaps between his eyelids.

The young man was aware of the woman's presence the moment she and her entourage neared his bedroom door but pretended to be asleep to see what she planned to do.

In his eyes, he saw a woman that would attract the attention of males anywhere she went. She looked tall for a woman, roughly 172cm and was dressed in a conservative dark blue dress suit. She was slim and had shoulder length black hair. She had on a pair of square gla.s.ses on her face covering her sharp eyes on her oval shaped face. Her body was slim and the dress suit stopped just above the knees of her long legs. In short, the woman was a cool beauty.

After eyeing the woman for a bit while she worked, the young man went back to sorting out the memories he received from that ma.s.sive influx of pain the headache from an hour before had given him. During this time the woman sat down on a chair nearby the bed and took out a book to read.

For the next twenty minutes or so, the young man sorted out the memories he received from the headache. In the memories, he learned about the owner of the body he was currently in, w.a.n.g Xu. He learned that the young man, like him, was an orphan. He grew up in an orphanage during his early years.

He was eventually adopted during his grade school years by an elderly couple but even they didn't stay in his life for too long as they pa.s.sed on while he was attending high school years later. After finishing high school, w.a.n.g Xu had to immediately start working as he had no money to attend college. After a few years of working odd jobs, he eventually ended up working for this security company and a.s.signed to the unit attached to the Sanming Gaming Studio.

Looking at the memories up to here, the young man couldn't help but feel somewhat rueful at how similar both his and w.a.n.g Xu's lives were. The only difference is that unlike w.a.n.g Xu who died in his twenties, the young man managed to live twice as long and was starting to contemplate retirement before he died. Besides that, their lives were just that similar.

After figuratively shaking his head free of distractions, the young man then looked up how exactly w.a.n.g Xu met his end. He was on his way home when he saw a few women being hara.s.sed by a group of men. Normally he wouldn't have taken that route home but this time he was in a rush and just so happened to come across this event, so he decided to call the cops and help the women in the mean time.

After calling the cops and giving them his current location, w.a.n.g Xu confronted the group as a means of buying time. Eventually a fight broke out and w.a.n.g Xu managed to take down a few of the men before he was eventually hit over the head from behind by a member of the group who wasn't present before. Apparently the hit was severe enough to draw blood and this caused the group to run away before things got any worse.

That hit, however, was enough to cause w.a.n.g Xu's death and by the time the ambulance showed up he was already long gone. The only reason he wasn't considered dead on site was because the body apparently still had a heartbeat and he was then rushed to a hospital where he underwent surgery and had been resting ever since.

While going through those memories, the young man noticed something strange. While no one was looking and after w.a.n.g Xu had died, he noticed that there was a brief flash of red that appeared in w.a.n.g Xu's body and it was this flash of red that caused him to retain his heartbeat. When he tried to focus even further on what that flash of red was, something appeared in the young man's mind. This something caused the young man to instantly jump up in the bed, startling the woman reading her book next to him. The reason for this is because the young man recognized what that something was. It was the bead he was charged with retrieving during his last mission.

Now that he's jumped up and startled the woman next to him, the young man couldn't just pretend to be asleep anymore, so he started surveying the room as if he's puzzled why he is in a hospital. Seeing his reaction, the bespectacled young woman pushed a b.u.t.ton on a remote next to the bed before turning to the young man.

"Good afternoon, Mr w.a.n.g. How are you feeling?"

"My head feels a bit fuzzy. Apart from that and a few aches and pains on my body, i'm doing just fine. Thanks for asking."

The young woman nodded and just as she was about to say something else the doctor and a few nurses entered the room. After looking at the bed and noticing that the young man was awake, the doctor and the nurses approached him. While the nurses were preparing materials to do some tests, the doctor spoke to the young man.

"Good day, Mr w.a.n.g. I am Dr. Sing and I am the one in charge of your treatment. How are you feeling now that you are up?"

"h.e.l.lo Dr Sing. As I have just told this young lady here, besides my head feeling a bit fuzzy and a few aches and pains on my body due to lack of use, I'm doing just fine." After saying this the young man adjusted his position on the bed so that he's current sitting up.

"Very good, Mr w.a.n.g. That fuzzy feeling in your head should pa.s.s within a few hours and those other aches will be eased when you start exercising later. Seeing that you are currently awake, do you mind if we run some tests to check up on your health?"

"By all means." As the young man said this, the young woman from before took her book and made her way towards the door.

"I'll be back to check on you later, Mr w.a.n.g." Without waiting for the young man's response, the bespectacled woman left the room so that the doctor and nurses can carry out their tests unhindered. The young man watched as she left then shrugged before allowing himself to be checked by the hospital staff.

.....

Outside the VIP room, the woman nodded at the bodyguards before walking away, the men following after her. As she was walking, she took out her cellphone and made a call.

"He's awake Sir."

'What is his current state like?'

"Nothing serious so far, Sir. If all goes well, he should be fully recovered in a few days."

'Very good. Keep monitoring him until he's released from the hospital and make sure nothing happens to him. Those are the orders from the young miss.'

"Understood Sir."

After hanging up the phone, the woman continued on her way and left the hospital with the security detail in tow.

.....

After a few more days of rest within the hospital, The young man was given a clean bill of health and finally allowed to leave. When he asked about payment, he was told that the bill was already covered by the woman who payed him a visit a few days prior. At first he was a bit surprised but after remembering what she had talked to him about later that evening, he shrugged it off and slowly made his way home.

In the few days that he's been awake, the young man or Kirou was able to sort through and fully absorb all of w.a.n.g Xu's memories. Feeling that the young man's life ended way too quickly and realizing that he himself now had a new lease on life, Kirou decided that he would live out w.a.n.g Xu's life for him.

As he thought this, Kirou, or rather, w.a.n.g Xu started coming up with plans on what he should be doing next. Unlike his previous life where he lived like an a.s.sa.s.sin, w.a.n.g Xu decided that he would live a slow and steady life this time.

Looking through his memories, he noticed that the security job that the previous w.a.n.g Xu had wasn't all that stressful so continuing with it wouldn't be an issue in the long run. At the very least it could provide him with some stability.

Next on his list was finding a means to train his body. Though he wanted a slow and relaxing life, Kirou understood very well that one's safety can only be a.s.sured by oneself so he wanted to make sure what happened to the previous w.a.n.g Xu won't happen to him.

Lastly, he now had to decide on what he should do as a hobby. As opposed to his previous life where he worked as blacksmith among other things in his free time, he currently lived in a world where such things aren't the norm so he had to find something else to occupy his time.

As he was thinking this, Kirou couldn't help but noticing an advertis.e.m.e.nt broadcast for a new video game on a billboard across the street from him. The game broadcast showcased many elements similar to things from his previous life, including his old hobbies. Kirou couldn't help but marvel at that fact and made a mental note to look up the details for that game later on.
