My Muscle System in the Mage World

Chapter 1: The Beginning

Aur tried to move his head; however, all he saw was pitch darkness in his surroundings, devoid of any light. He didn't know if he had his eyes closed or if he was just blind or something.

"Hello? Is there anyone?" he said with some frustration. However, when he heard no voice, he just remained still.

"Is this an afterlife? Huh, but from what I know, the afterlife doesn't exist, as we just convert it into energy that is fed to Mother Nature." Aur remained still, not losing his composure as he helplessly stayed in that position for what seemed to be an eternity.

Although people might suffer from loneliness in this deep darkness, he had suffered enough in his previous life.

Aur stayed stationary in his place in the darkness which was devoid of any warmth.

Finally, he saw a warm light in the distance, in the corner of his vision.

"What's this?"

Aur didn't move towards this unknown force, but somehow, even without his will, he seemed to be compelled by an invisible hand that pulled him towards the light.

"Huh!?"

The next moment, Aur struggled to open his eyes and saw a red ceiling after entering the light.

"No, it isn't red. Everything around me is red." He struggled with his neck before he could barely look around his surroundings, finding everything tinted in red.

"Why is my vision red?"

At this time, he felt his body was heavy; even opening his eyelids was difficult.

As he was contemplating, he heard an old voice.

"Why is this child not crying? Weird."

The nanny looked at the young lady who had already fainted due to severe pain, which caused her to shake her head as she sighed.

Seeing the ugly expression of the baby bathed with blood, she patted him on the back trying to make him cry but no matter how much she beat him he just stared dead at her.

"Hey, let go of me, you old hag."

Aur said however only the unrecognisable voice of a baby came out of his mouth, although this much pain wasn't nearly enough to even scratch an itch.

"This old hag..." he punched, imagining the woman's head to burst. However, that didn't happen.

Instead, he saw a small fist from the corner of his inverted, faint red vision, causing a whirlpool of expressions on his face—sad, angry, happy. In the end, a bitter expression appeared last, making his face full of wrinkles and extremely ugly.

"I reincarnated?" Aur's eyes widened in astonishment as he tried to comprehend the situation.

"Is this child really dead?" The nanny thought tentatively, seeing the baby unmoving even after being hit. However, seeing the wrinkled face of Aur, she internally breathed a sigh of relief and the coughing voice of Aur didn't stop.

"This brat isn't dead yet if he was, I would be in a big trouble." She quickly put down Aur as she cleaned him with water under the watchful stare of Aur.

"So I really did reincarnate. Now I need to find out if it really is my world that I reincarnated into...." Aur assessed his situation as he looked around, ignoring the uncomfortable feeling he got from the woman who was washing him, and observed the minimal furnishings of the room.

"Either my family is super rich or mediocre to the bones."

"Has my child been born?" a man excitedly walked into the room. The man had a distinctive moustache and was wearing a standard white shirt and black pants, with a skin tone of quarter black and white. He was neither too lean nor too fat.

"Yes, master, the baby is safe, but madam is unconscious."

Although the man frowned at the condition of his wife, he nodded his head as he tenderly looked at Aur.

"My child," he said, his voice full of doting.

"At least I won't grow up without a family," Aur thought.

"Here is your reward," the man said as he took out a small crystal from his back pocket and gave it to her.

The woman's eyes lit up when she saw the crystal as she bowed before hurriedly taking it and leaving.

"What a strange currency." Although Aur didn't understand their words, he inferred the conversation from their body language.

"Evelyn, we finally have a child." His supposed father moved up to his mother and slowly touched her forehead. Instantly, a green light flashed as the woman's eyes slowly opened.

Seeing this, Aur's eyes lit up.

"This is not my previous world. It must be a parallel world, seeing all of them are humans," he concluded, as excitement welled up from deep within him.
