Ari (Child of the Beastman Goddess)

My name is Kim Ahri and for the first time in my 30 years of life, I can finally achieve my dream of having an international vacation not related to work.

My destination is the City of Love, Paris.

Romantic isn’t it?

If you are asking if I am traveling with my boyfriend..

I’ll say..

HELL NO!!! I am traveling alone but not lonely.

Yes, I know it is awkward for a single person since birth like myself to travel to the City of Love alone, but I don’t care. I just want to travel hoping to finally find my soulmate elsewhere despite my special condition.

Yes, the reason I have been single since birth is because I have androphobia. But that’s okay, because I have been diligently undergoing therapy and medications since forever.

I woke up early in the morning to finalize my preparation and set out early to check-in at the airport.

I was so excited during the flight…

Not knowing…

That it will be the last flight I will ever have in my entire life.

I took my medications upon boarding the plane because a man was seated beside my designated seat.

I sat down beside the window, pulled up the hood of my jacket and took a nap.

I woke up due to the commotion. I was shocked and confused.

There were hijackers aboard the plane.

I was panicking in my mind and my heart was beating so fast. My anxiety is already overwhelming me as one of the hijackers pointed his gun against my head.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

The man yelled to me demanding me to pull down my hood, remove my jacket and hand it over along with my bag.

I was trembling while silently telling myself, “RIP Happy travel. Why am I so unfortunate?”

I instantly obeyed the man’s demand, but as I pulled down my hood and removed the jacket, I felt the urge to puke.

“OMG not now!” I whispered to myself because I was afraid to provoke the man.

I pulled myself together as I gave him my jacket and my bag.

He suddenly grabbed my pale and numbing face, then looked intently while smirking with his lustful eyes. I tried to struggle as I mumbled to my mind, “Oh my goodness! I can’t hold it any longer!”

I suddenly vomited on his face as I fainted in fright while thinking “RIP my dear life this may be the end. Sorry mom, I think I won’t be able to come back home alive”

I don’t know how he reacted after I fainted, but I felt like my body was thrown over then an old woman held me while trembling and mumbling as if praying using a language I am not familiar with.

I still couldn’t feel anything due to numbness but the last thing I remember was that the plane suddenly lost its control as the pilot was shot dead then I fainted again due to hyperventilation and panic.

I didn’t even know if I died due to a plane crash or due to cardiac arrest triggered by my condition.

Well, rest in peace my dear self, rest in peace. I still regret not being able to find love during my past life.

“Damn it! Why me? Why am I so unlucky? Oh dear God, what sin did I do to deserve such life? I only wanted to finally live a normal life and finally find the special someone I can share the rest of my life with. But why? Why do you detest me so much to the point I am unable to find my soulmate and experience what love is? Why?” I yelled and mumbled to the air while I was in the abyss as it was slowly sucked into a wormhole.

I woke up in a dark, cramped and damp place.

“Am I alive? Or is this the afterlife?” I thought to myself.

It’s so slimy, but I can hear some people mumbling and chatting from the distance outside this wall like thing.

I feel like I am trapped inside a capsule or shell like thing.

I tried stretching out as much as I could and felt like I was breaking out into some kind of shell.

A few moments later; I finally broke out of the shell and realized that I was inside an egg. I looked around and saw a few more eggs that are clustered in a group that varies in number. I was too tired to crawl out from the shell so I lay down on my tummy like babies do.

I think I became a baby as I looked at my tiny little chubby arms.

However, why did I come out of an egg? Where am I? Did I die and was reborn into an unknown world?

“Ooodjee! Wah iihh hee!? (OMG! What is this?!)”, I shouted.

I was so frustrated as I realized that I really turned into a baby.

I tried to crawl out from the shell, then after a few tries, I was gasping for air due to exhaustion. I yawned a few times and almost fell asleep.

“Ahgu! Daeet!(Argh! Dang it!)” I shouted frustratingly as I lay flat on the tummy.

I sleepily, looked at the egg shell parts that I broke and noticed that I was placed on top of a blue furry animal pelt blanket and was isolated from the other eggs.

I heard footsteps approaching, but I couldn’t see their faces clearly as I uncontrollably shut my eyes slowly to sleep.

Though half asleep, I can hear a commotion while I was being held by a familiar yet firm warmth.

From the side, I can hear a voice of a woman arguing with the crowd as the person holding me stays silent yet caressing my hair as if reassuring me that everything will be okay.

I can’t understand what they are saying as they are speaking a language I have never heard of. The only thing I know is that they are arguing about me.

I dozed off a few times before I was able to wake myself up. I opened my eyes and angrily looked at them.

“Ewo eeh ek! (WTF! What is going on?!)”, I shouted as if scolding everyone.

Silence suddenly surrounded the room as they all looked shocked upon seeing my eyes.

They suddenly bowed down praising words I couldn’t even understand. At that moment, I finally realized that I was reborn into a world of beastmen.

OMG! This jerk of a God really is playing tricks on me. Why am I transmigrated into a world like this? Why do these beasts; or men; or orcs; or whatever they are, treat me like a pest in a few moments, then bow down in front of me the next second? Are they crazy or am I crazy?
