Chapter 109: Park

Huh?

I was surprised when she told me. But she dragged me to the city as she wanted to spend more time with me to get to know me.

But when I saw her for the first time, even I thought that she was stoic, but I was wrong, she always pranked with me. Maybe I was the only man in this world who could speak to her like that.

"Alan?" I heard Lily's voice. Again, I was lost in thought while speaking to another person. Hah, I have to work on this. 

I shook my head and said, "You surprised me. I didn't know that she was like that."

"Hmmm," she nodded while we made our way.

"Well, we can go out in the future. What do you think of that?" Suddenly she said to me.

When I turned my head, I saw that the pair of big black eyes were looking at me with expectations. Initially, I wanted to deny that, but when I saw those eyes filled with expectations, I relented and said with a smile.

"Sure, whenever you want," 

A smile bloomed on her face when she heard me. Don't know why but somehow even I felt happy when I saw that smile.

After a while, we reached her place. Her place was far away from my home. After she went inside, I decided to continue my jog. It's been so many days when I finished the jog.

When I started running, I met many people who were walking back to their homes. Even though this is the facility, they have provided homes to everyone who was working here.

And living here for so many days, many of the people in the facility knew me. They smiled at me whenever I passed by them.

Just as I finished my jog, I realized that I was standing before the park. Memories flooded my mind when I visited his place for the first time. It was the morning time when I came here and spotted Isabella. It was then she pointed the gun at me.

Hah, my heart still hurts when I think about her. I don't know whether I did the right thing or not. I didn't even give her the chance to explain herself.

But what infuriated me was that even though she came before me, she didn't even come to the facility to check whether I came back or not?

Hah, I am overthinking too much. It's her life. She can live however she wants. 

Suddenly my attention drew towards the bench in the park. Don't know why, but I suddenly had the urge to sit there for some time.

After a while, I leaned back on the bench as I stared at the stars. Even though this world is different, those stars seemed the same to me. The shiny twinkly sight reminded me of time on earth.

Many things have been changed in my life. Back then, I was an arrogant asshole, who would do anything to bed the girl. I didn't care about anything or anyone. From the moment my parents passed away, I didn't have anyone to call the family. Everyone around me was selfish. They were with me because of the money. Even I became one of them.

But things changed when I came to this world. To be honest, I was not prepared for the change. I was just enjoying my life and just flaunting my wealth. But everything changed overnight.

The world changed upside down for me. I get transmigrated to this world. My views and beliefs were shattered and a whole new world opened up for me.

Sometimes, even I get embarrassed when I remember the times I found that I became the monkey and what bullshit I spoke at that time. I really can't believe that I was speaking like that. Maybe less intelligence lead to that moments.

Anyway, it was part and parcel of my life and got evolved into what I am today.

But this life was a totally different world for me. I got to see many things which were only a fantasy for me. Hah, this was a fantasy world, where people had powers, and what's more, even I had many. 

I met many people, some of them even became companions of mine. To be honest, when I came to the city, I didn't have any hope for any of that. What I expected was a ruthless world full of politics and violence. 

Starting with Olivia and Alexandra, I was happy that I had some beauties around me. But my relationship with them changed a lot with time. 

I even can't forget the times when I used to run away from Diana whenever she wanted to talk to me. Hah, good old times.

But these were the people who cared for me. Even the people I met in the jungle, granny, Amelia. Even though I was a stranger, they didn't treat me like one and even gave me one of the precious treasures.

I think I also started to change when these people cared for me. Their love and care opened up my heart to the people around me. That was the reason why I felt so bad when I saw Isabella out there.

Even though many things happened between us, I believed in her. If I was my past self, I wouldn't even have cared whether or not she went out with another person, as my purpose was over.

But I am not the past me. I have changed, and it hurts me so much. Even though I wanted to forget about it. But it keeps on bugging me all the time.

As my eyes caught sight of the twinkling stars, the image of Lucia appeared in my mind. I really don't know many things about her, but whenever I dreamt of her, my heart started beating faster. Sometimes I even felt the slight pain in my heart whenever her face flashed in front of me.

I don't know who I was, but somewhere in my mind or heart, there is a belief that she is still alive, waiting for me to come. 

But a different feeling emerged in my heart as I looked at the stars. I felt that Lucia was staring at me with a smile on her face. I could even feel the look of loneliness in her eyes.

Suddenly, a determination filled my heart as I clenched my fists. Whatever it may be, I have to meet her. She is waiting for me and I can't let her down.

But just as I swore, I was surprised by the view in front of me. Dark clouds surrounded the sky and sounds of thunder filled my ears.

It all happened so quickly that I was dumbstruck when I saw that. Is heaven responding to my oath, or does Lucia hear my words? I don't know, but my heart started pounding when I thought about that.

As I closed my eyes, I felt the wind caressing me. I was so engrossed in my thoughts about everything that I even neglected the changes happening inside me. As I felt relaxed when the wind touched my body. I didn't know what was happening around me.

My mind was playing the scenes of me uniting with Lucia, but suddenly I heard a voice inside my head.

"Alan?" 

It was Eve's voice, but is she calling me? But when I opened my eyes. I was shocked when I saw the surrounding view around me. Everything seems to be destroyed. Even the trees got uprooted, but my eyes drew towards the people in front of me.

I even saw that Even Alexandra and Tanya were standing there. But expressions were telling different stories. Many of them had astonished expressions on their faces, while some were even looking scared.

My eyes scanned around to see that everything was destroyed by some power. But why am I still fine? Did something happen when I was thinking about Lucia, or is it related to the Dark Cloud which covered the sky?

There was so much silence around me that I could even hear my heartbeat.

When my eyes met with both Alexandra and Tanya, even they seemed to vary towards me.

Did I destroy everything? But I didn't do anything. Suddenly, I remembered the day when I was traveling in the car.

Did the same thing happen again? What did I do?

"What the fuck happened?" I screamed internally when Eve's voice echoed in my mind.

"Alan, are you fine?"

I could clearly feel her worried tone.

"What happened? Why is everything like this?" I screamed. Even I got scared when I saw the surrounding destruction. Did I awaken the power of darkness? 

I don't know, but many questions started popping up in my mind.

I don't know what happened, but suddenly, I got cut off from your memories. And your body started changing.

"Then what happened here?" I asked while my eyes were fixed on my surroundings.

"You have awakened the Power of Wind,"
