Chapter 3: Where is the help?

-Hey, are you okay? Why don't you turn your face to your mother," the woman asked him, puzzled by her son's behavior.

But even if the woman asked him to, Alexander could not turn his face, for a sea of tears fell from it, he would never have thought to hear his mother's voice again.

-Good morning, Mother. -Young Alexander turned around with what little willpower he had left to keep from collapsing.

-That's it man, you had me worried, I'm going to prepare breakfast and you get ready to study. Giving the classic mother and son sermon, the woman decided to go down to the kitchen.

-To study? Wait, that's right! -As soon as he came to his senses. Alexander realized that since he was in the past, he had to repeat the routine of that time.

-High school," Alexander's face turned grim at the thought of having to go back to high school. After all, he had been bullied and ostracized in high school.

High school was like the animal kingdom, only the strongest survived. But Alexander didn't have much to envy, he wasn't very smart, he didn't have many friends.

-And if we talk about physique…" The boy looked at himself in the mirror with little desire and saw a mediocre physique, a little fat. In short, Alexander is prey in the blissful animal kingdom.

-Wait a minute… That's right, I forgot he was going to help me.

Alexander's face lit up as he remembered what the 'voice' had told him earlier, he said. (He said he would help me this time, so I can do it).

Filled with blind confidence, Alexander gets ready for high school and tidies up his messy room.

-Perfect, I'm ready," Alexander's face showed an incredible happiness, this time it would be different, he was sure of it.

-Where did you open it,-Young Alexander searches all over the room for his phone until he finds it, but…, wow, it seems to have no battery… -Seeing that his smart phone didn't have enough battery, he decided to let it charge for after school, then go downstairs to the kitchen.

-Come on, hurry up, you have to eat before you go. -the woman complained to Alexander as she got ready. Believe it or not, this scene is nothing new, because Alexander's father died when he was very young, his mother had to raise him alone, so he is always in a hurry to go to work.

-Thank you for the food. -Young Alexander, following his mother's instructions, sits down at the table to start eating, he could not resist the urge to cry for this scene that he had not seen for a long time, but he had to be strong.

As soon as Alexander finished his breakfast, he washed the dishes to relieve his mother, and they both left the house.

-Take care, Mommy loves you very much. -She kisses Alexander on the forehead, says goodbye to him, and they go their separate ways.

(High School I'm Coming to Get You!!!!)

Ready for what lay ahead, Alexander went straight to school, thinking that with the help of the "voice" everything would be different.

10 minutes later, Alexander had arrived at the high school, an environment he hadn't lived in for a long time, which made him feel a bit nostalgic.

-Hey, Alex!!!!

Behind Alexander someone called out to him, it was his only friend in the whole high school, his name was Richard Reid. Richard was a young brown-haired, pale blue-eyed man of somewhat small stature and build. Perhaps that was why they were friends, neither of them being very dominant in the animal kingdom.

-Oh, good morning Richard, how are you?" asked Alexander with a smile, excited to see his friend again. Since he couldn't finish college, he decided to break up with all his friends because he felt bad about being the only mediocre one in the group. But group is too much to say, it was just him and Richard against the world.

But while Alexander lived his life as a loser forever, Richard founded a company that became quite big in the city. This made Alexander feel too inferior, so he cut ties with Richard.

-Me? I'm fine, thanks for asking. -(Don't worry Richard, this time we'll be friends forever, the "voice" said it would help me, I won't be left behind like last time).

While thinking with conviction about their future, they both finally arrive at their classroom, and as soon as they enter, they see a typical scene of the place.

-Hahaha, I told you, this is the last model to leave. -A blonde girl, quite cute with a face that makes you think she is an angel, is sitting at her desk showing off her new cell phone.

(Here is one of the queens of this serba, Eva Smith). -Her parents are the Smiths, one of the richest families in the City of the Golden Count, and as always, she is fed up with her parents' wealth.

-Good morning, sorry I'm late, I was taking a call.

A girl enters the classroom with long black hair, brown eyes as if to show her class, lips more than perfect for a girl and an angelic face, this was Sophia Bromck. And she seems to be holding the same phone as Eva.

-That bitch, how she irritates me, she thinks it's too much for her family. -Eva's eyes filled with blood when she saw Sophia enter the classroom, because Eva Sophia was her rival.

Sophia Bromck is from the Bromck family, the most powerful family in the City of the Golden Count, but unlike Eva, Sophia had more of a good girl impression, as she didn't brag about her things. -That's why she has no friends.

That was true, even though Sophia came from the richest family in town, she didn't have anything you could call a friend, everyone believes that the punishment comes with the power of being part of the Bromck family.

As the scene came to an end, Alexander and Richard were about to sit down, but both were pushed by three boys who had just entered the classroom. -Why are you bitches in my way?

The one in the middle of the three boys, who seemed to be the leader, speaks to the duo with a commanding look and voice, (This is the king of this serba, Marcus Watters).

Marcus did not come from a family of power, but thanks to his fighting skills and great physical qualities, he earned the respect of everyone at the high school.

-Richard, nervous about Marcus' presence, tried to defuse the situation, but was only knocked to the ground by Marcus, who pushed him out of the way and walked over them as if he didn't care.

-Holiss Marcus, good morning! -Eva approaches Marcus for her charms of the day, it is known to all that she is in love with Marcus.

-As soon as he regained consciousness, Alexander reached out to Richard to help him, he couldn't leave his friend on the floor.

(Wasn't help supposed to come now?), Alexander doesn't claim that the "voice" told him to help him in this attempt, but at a moment when he was supposed to help him, nothing happened.

-Relax Alex, I'm fine, it's just a push, it's no big deal. -Young Richard, full of extreme confidence, tells Alexander that it's no big deal, and after getting up they get ready for class.

The hours passed and the whole group was piled up with long and hard hours of studying until it was time for lunch.

-Finally they let us free to eat Alexander. -Young Richard was quite hungry and ready to go to lunch, but there was a figure behind the group.

-The boy grabbed both Alexander and Richard by the men's shoulders with a somewhat uncomfortable smile, both knowing what was coming next.

-Look, me and Marcus forgot our money in the house, so… we'd like to borrow it, we'll pay you back quietly. -This was something that happened a lot in high school, the stronger ones would come and give you the excuse that they forgot the money to steal yours.

-But… Didn't you say the same thing yesterday? How can the same thing happen to you twice in a row? -Young Alexander takes courage and asks this question to Marcus' faithful dog, perhaps thinking that if he takes courage, the help the "voice" told him about will come.

-Hey… You're telling me no," The friendly face the boy had a minute ago disappears in an instant to become an intimidating face that stares at Alexander.

-No… I… Here you go. -Alexander, full of fear, hands the money to the boy, later Richard does the same.

-Come on, they're my best friends, I'll see you later. -The boy happily goes to Marcus to share the proceeds of his "loan from his friends.

-Courage Alexander, you weren't that hungry anyway, were you? -No, I'm fine. Alexander replies quickly to Richard, wondering once again where the help the "voice" had promised him was. It was the perfect time for it.

After this scene the class continued as usual until it was time to leave, Richard, who was very hungry although he hid it, decided to leave quickly, but Alexander stayed a little longer because he had to go to the bathroom.

(Fuck this was a shitty day, I'm really hungry and I still have 15 minutes to get home, it can't get any worse). -At these words from Alexander, fate decides to play in his face, as a strong pressure falls on his back.

-Get out of the way, you're in the way. -Marcus had kicked Alexander in the hallway in front of everyone (Good, now help is on the way).

Alexander starts looking around the hallway for someone to help him, thinking that maybe the help the "voice" was talking about was a person. But…

No one came to Alexander's rescue, no one cared about a nobody like him, some even laughed as they passed by, and Alexander just hung his head until it was time for him to regain his pride and go home.

After half an hour Alexander arrived at his empty house, his mother was at work. There was no one to greet him.

-I'm hungry…" Alexander hungrily grabs some instant soup, but angrily throws it at the wall.

-Where is the damn help!!! I don't see the help you promised….

Angry perhaps at the "voice," the world, or Alexander himself, he falls into tears, crying aloud as the help he expected never came.

-If you just wanted to make fun of me, you could let me die and not put me through this hell again!

Collapsed on his knees on the floor, Alexander goes back to get his soup, puts the kettle on to prepare it, and then goes up to his room.

(The only thing that cheered me up during these days was playing music on my phone).

Alexander grabs his phone with a full battery and decides to search for the music player app, but while searching he notices something.

-What about this application? -He stops to see that he had installed an application that he had never heard of or seen before, the name of this application was King Legend System.

He had never heard of this application even in his old life, so he was intrigued and decided to enter it.

[I said I would help you, didn't I?]

Upon entering the application, he saw a golden-colored message that left Alexander breathless, it was more than obvious that this message was written by the voice.

[Well, here is the help]

The application began to download some additional data, while Alexander's mind was only looking forward to the help he so desperately wanted.

[Download complete] [Welcome Alexander Del Ryo].

Two messages were more than enough to leave Alexander with a strong emotion that he could only look at without thinking of anything else.

[Welcome to King Legend System]
