《The Wish to have Power》


 Chapter 1: How did this all happened?

    ¡°Well then, your wish is granted!¡± a sweet voice calls out.


    Suddenly, I woke up in a strange place. Nothing feels familiar. It feels like I¡¯ve come to the past¡­ No, more like I¡¯ve come to a different world!


    As I try to gather information on where I could be, my head suddenly hurts¡­ It feels like its burning¡­.


    ¡°Calm down¡± I told myself¡­ Recall all the events on what happened before this¡­


    ¡°Ha ha¡± I laughed pitifully as I remembered all the horrible memories. I was a Top Student in my school yet I was bullied. Since I barely have physical strength and thin, bullies would occasionally wait for me in the hallway or even in the bathroom. They would beat me up for something unreasonable like being at the top or just plainly answering the teacher¡¯s difficult questions when no one can answer.

    And that part wasn¡¯t even my fault, since no one can answer the difficult question the teacher will always call my name out. ¡°That¡¯s ¡°the boy who can do everything¡± for you!¡± my classmates call out. Since I excel at all my subjects even at some sports, I¡¯ve been called ¡°The boy who can do everything¡±. Being bullied, I tend to have more trust issues and stay away from people. It has been a really pitiful life I would say so myself.


    Left alone and no one to trust, I always told myself ¡°Maybe I was born in the wrong era or even the wrong world¡± and ¡°When will people respect me?¡± as if I was in a higher state than this people. I wanted power. Power that was enough to gain respect of people lower than me¡­. No even Royalties shall bow before me!


    As I laughed at my own foolish dream suddenly I heard a sweet voice call out¡­.


    ¡°Well then, your wish is granted!¡±

 Chapter 2: The First Encounter

    After I recalled my memories I stood up and looked around.


    ¡°It seems like I¡¯m still wearing my school uniform but my belongings are gone.¡± I muttered under my breath.


    There was a village to my west but the rest are plains. I could barely see the forest.


    ¡°I guess I should look around¡± I told myself.


    As I went to the village to the west I noticed a huge line in front of me. It seems like they¡¯re inspecting each person. As I approach the village¡¯s gate, I got more nervous. I didn¡¯t know how to interact with people since I was practically a loner at my school.


    ¡°Next¡± I heard the guard call


    ¡°Hmm, what do we have here? Could you give me your Identification Card?¡± the guard said


    ¡°Identification Card? Ermmm, I don¡¯t have one.¡± I said


    ¡°Wait here.¡± as he said he walked to the other guards


    As I waited I heard the guards whispering ¡°Could he be it?¡± ¡°He has no Identification Card¡± ¡®We should imprison him for safety¡±


    The guard went back with his sword unsheathed


    ¡°You bastard!! How dare you come back to our village?? Guards! Prison him immediately!!¡±


    Shocked, I started to explain myself.


    ¡°What do you mean??? I just got he-¡±


    Not even allowing to finish my sentence, the guard punched my chest.


    The author''s content has been appropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon.


    What the heck? This punch is way stronger than average. I was sure I could take at least 4 hits before I would feel so much pain.


    Crouching from the pain, the guard slowly took me into prison.


    ¡°Wait! He is my Slave!¡± a stranger called out.


    The guard stopped and talked to the stranger.


    ¡°He doesn¡¯t have a I.D Card because he is my slave.¡± the stranger said


    I looked at the stranger, it was a woman in an iron armor. Not only that but it seems like she has some bodyguards but they looked barbaric.


    ¡°Alright then, give me your I.D card¡± the guard said to the stranger.


    The stranger grinned although not visible enough for the guard.


    Just as the woman was giving her I.D card, I looked at it from the distance, although I only got some words written.


    ¡°Illiana Fantasma¡± The card said


    But there was more shocking things I saw.


    ¡°Class: Mage¡±


    ¡°Level 32¡±


    There were other things I saw such as ¡°Skills¡± and ¡°Equipment¡± but due to the distance and the speed on how fast she was giving it to the guard, I barely caught any glimpse of it.


    ¡°You certainly have enough ¡°Skills¡± and ¡°Level¡± for you to own a slave. Alright! Let them pass!¡± the guard exclaimed


    The woman grinned. I could tell she was plotting something.


    I followed the woman and his guards to the nearest Pub and sat on an empty table.


    ¡°T-thank you for saving me.¡± I told the woman


    She held out her hand as if she was asking something.


    ¡°Here give it to me¡± She said


    ¡°Huh?¡± I said in confusion


    She slowly said it with a grin


    ¡°Y-O-U-R M-O-N-E-Y¡± she mischievously said


    ¡°You couldn¡¯t have gone this far from the main border and don¡¯t have money don¡¯t you? Every adventurer knows this and plus you¡¯re in the middle of the 2 countries border.¡±


    ¡°I don¡¯t have any. I just suddenly came her like magic¡± I told her honestly


    ¡°Don¡¯t fool me boy! After all the mess I¡¯ve done to get you alive and in this village! If you don¡¯t give it to me we will kill you!¡± she exclaimed


    I stayed silent. It feels like checkmate. All moves I try will end me being killed. The only way out is to run.


    ¡°Staying silent eh? Alright beat him to death!¡± the woman said


    As the bodyguards try to grab me, I found an opportunity to run. Since I have a small body, I quickly slipped away from the guards. I reached for the Pub¡¯s door


    ¡°Oh no you don¡¯t!¡± The woman said as well as she was chanting something


    Suddenly, I felt a strong jolt of electricity.


    ¡°ArgHhH!! IT HURTSSSSSS!!!¡± I fell down.


    Losing conscience, I feel the bodyguards pick me up.


    I could make out some words she was saying¡­


    ¡°Leave¡­..alleyway¡­..everything¡±


    I fainted.

 Chapter 3: Partner

    ¡°Wake up¡± a sweet voice call out


    There it is again. The sweet voice that sounds like a lullaby.


    ¡°Wake up Dei! Didn¡¯t you want respect and power?¡± it continues


    ¡°I DO WANT IT!¡± I shouted


    The voice seemed to get more distorted


    ¡°Didn¡¯t you want power to kill your foes? Power beyond a God? Come to the Darkness! We have what you want here!¡± as the voice slowly fades away I feel like I was fading into the darkness.


    The darkness keeps getting closer to me, the sweet voice turned into a voice of a witch, no, more like a Demon!


    ¡°GIVE ME YOUR SOUL AND YOUR WISH SHALL BE GRANTED!¡±


    It opened it¡¯s mouth wide. I can do nothing but watch.


    ¡°It¡¯s things like you that I wanted power! Power to annihilate Evil!¡±


    I got swallowed...


    ¡°BWaaHH!!¡± I sat up as I wake up. Suddenly I felt a strong pain in my forehead


    ¡°Ouch!¡± I said


    ¡°Ouch!¡±


    Huh? Why did I heard someone say ¡°Ouch?¡±


    Still feeling the pain, I slowly turned around and there I saw it, no more like ¡°her¡±


    She was covering her red forehead. But that blonde hair, fair and glowing skin and¡­ wait, are those? Im sure of it. Elf ears.


    ¡°Are you my Fated one?¡± I asked sarcastically. Surely these moments only occur at Novels, games, manga and even Anime.


    ¡°W-who are you calling fated one you idiot!¡± she said flusteredly


    ¡°I am a proud Wish Fairy! I won¡¯t fall in love in a mere human!¡±Stolen from its original source, this story is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.


    Disappointed I replied ¡°And what would a Wish Fairy want with me, your highness?¡±


    ¡°Are you really that stupid? Isn¡¯t it obvious that I grant you your wish? In fact you should be on your knees for me to grant you your wish!¡± she said in a condescending way


    ¡°I obviously know that but the thing I don¡¯t get is why are you here? Aren¡¯t you supposed to only grant my wish? Unless of course my wish is to have a beautiful ¡°tsundere¡± Elf fairy in front of me when I wake up¡± I said jokingly


    ¡°B-beautiful? Haha! I would not fall for such flattery! You mere humans only want the wishes we granted and do not care about us! And what do you mean by tsundere? I have never heard that term before¡± she said


    ¡°Ahhh nothing. Going back to the topic, why are you here?¡± I asked


    ¡°We, Wish Fairies have a certain rule to guide the one we granted a wish. I will be your partner for the rest of your journey, though I would¡¯ve liked not to!¡± she explained


    Full tsundere by heart. I¡¯m going to have a hard time dealing with her.


    ¡°Ah, right. I haven¡¯t gotten your name yet. My name is Dei Virtute, although my name sounds like ¡°Virtue¡± it¡¯s actually spelled with a ¡°t¡± in between the ¡°u¡± and ¡°e¡±.¡± I introduced myself


    ¡°Since I¡¯m coming with you anyway, my name is Neru. As I said I am a Wish Fairy.¡± she said


    ¡°Anyway now that introductions are done, I would like you to explain what happened when I fainted.¡± I asked


    ¡°Hmph, fainting from a mere shock? How pathetic¡± she looks at me with pity


    What the heck? I was lucky I wasn¡¯t fried from that bolt, coming from a level 32 mage.


    ¡°I was the voice in your head. The one who granted your wish to live in another world. It was very difficult to summon you, and naturally I got tired and slept inside your head. After you got shock, I was awakened from my slumber. You were being dragged at an alleyway. I noticed that they were taking your things and were planning to kill you. I went into ¡°human¡± form and threatened them to not touch you. Me and that witch had a magic duel. Seems like he was no match for a Wind Fairy after all!¡± she explained


    I was saved again but this time it was a genuine savior.


    I smiled


    ¡°What are you smiling at? It gives me chills¡± Neru said


    I replied to her with a smile:


    ¡°Thank you, for saving me!¡±


    Flustered she replied with a classic tsundere phrase:


    ¡°Well it¡¯s not like I saved you because I wanted to it was just a pain to summ-¡±


    I didn¡¯t mind what she was saying, I was just genuinely happy. I was about to rest when I realized that I was in a bed. I realized we rented a room. I went pale.


    WE DIDN¡¯T HAVE MONEY!!


    ¡°Ermm¡­ Neru, not being killjoy here but who paid this room?¡± I asked


    ¡°HAH? Isn¡¯t it obvious?! IT¡¯S YOU WHO¡¯S PAYING RIGHT?¡± she exclaimed


    I panicked


    ¡°I DON¡¯T HAVE MONEY! YOU JUST SUMMONED ME OUT OF NOWHERE WITH NOTHING!¡± I screamed ¡°IN THE FIRST PLACE, WHY DID YOU TAKE ME IN A PUB ROOM?!¡± I added


    ¡°HOW WOULD I KNOW THAT YOU¡¯RE BROKE? I THOUGHT YOU HAD MONEY BECAUSE THAT WITCH WAS STEALING FROM YOU!¡± She screamed


    ¡°YOU SHOULD¡¯VE CHECKED IF I HA-¡±


    Suddenly, the door busted open


    ¡°WOULD YOU PEOPLE BE QUIET? DON¡¯T YOU REALIZE THIS IS A PUBLIC ROOM? THERE ARE PEOPLE WHO ARE CLAIMING NOISE COMPLAINTS! IF YOU DON¡¯T BE QUIET I WILL CHARGE YOU EXTRA 5 SILVER!¡±


    He must be the manager of this Pub.


    ¡°Excuse me, Mr.Manager.¡± I said


    ¡°Call me Juht¡± the manager said ¡°And what is it?¡±


    ¡°Sir Juht¡­. We don¡¯t have money to pay.¡± I said


    Suddenly the air around me changed. It felt like bloodlust.


    ¡°You WHAT?¡± Juht screamed with his eyes burning.
