Chapter 4 - New Life
As Atlas slowly started to open his eyes, what he could see was a blinding light shooting at his eyeballs forcing him to close it out of reflex.
"WHAT THE FU-...." he tried to shout but what came out was a series of incomprehensible grunts and noises that were high pitched
\'Did I survive?! no, no way. If i survived then why the hell cant i say anything? Did I give myself brain damage.... UGH CAN\'T THEY HAVE JUST LET ME DIE?!\'
\'look at me now, I\'m just a disabled retard who cant even speak comprehendible words and barley open my ey-\'
Atlas\' inner speech was cut off by the sounds of cries of.... joy?
The noises around him indicated that there were multiple people there, some of which sounded young while others were deep and almost \'manly\'. Yet, with all the words and conversations around Atlas, He couldn\'t perceive a single thing that was said nor did it even sound like any of the languages he knew.
\'I really did get brain damage huh... whelp, when I\'m able to move my body i\'ll just kill my self as fast as possible, maybe jumping from the roof too would do the trick hahaha\'
(Author\'s note: the "<>" in front and behind a sentence means that Atlas does not understand what is being said)
<"Mom, my baby is not crying. do you think something is wrong? is he choking? is he fine? should we go to a hospital?">
<"Do not panic dear, i have checked on my granddaughter and she is perfectly fine">
<"She?">
<"Yes dear. Congratulations, you have bought a baby girl into this world."> the old woman said while clapping her hands together
{Author\'s note: No, the mc does not randomly start liking men now. The mc will remain male, just stuck in a body that isn\'t his. All the love interests in the future will remain female because humans do not suddenly have a change of sexual interest just because they are put into a different environment and situation. And for all of you who are complaining about the gender switch, not to spoil anything but there is a reason for it that has nothing to do with him being secretly gay... thank you for listening}
As Atlas tried to open his eyes again for the 6th, he could finally see 4 giants looking at him with anticipation and excitement written on their faces. There was a 5th giant woman who was looking behind him with a smile and hands together In front of her face.
Everything and everyone around him had more color than most things in his life. Yet, the people In front of him were the most vibrant.
This woman looked to be in her early 40s with a few wrinkles on her hand and face. Her eyes were bright blue and her hair shined with a holy golden color radiating from it. Her hair was back in a ponytail which the tail end of the ponytail was long enough to reach her waist.
While struggling to look around, Atlas saw a lean muscular tall man with bright Green and blue eyes which resembled an Aroura you would see in Iceland\'s night skies. His scruffy yet soft dirty blond hair was no longer than an inch or two while the sides of his hair was shaved leaving just the top.
His face jawline was chiseled and sharp while the rest of his face was what women would refer to as \'handsome\'. His eyes had slight bags under them indicating the sleepless nights he had lived through.
Right next to him was a Girl no more than 5ft 4 with braided hair in two strands that went down and in front of her chest. Just like her father\'s eyes, she Had the mix between blue and green which became progressively more blue with a few lines of green mixed within to finally create a turquoise color near the middle before reaching the iris. Her face was brimming with joy as she looked directly towards Atlas.
She could be no more than 18 yet her figure and curves screamed mature and elegant yet in contrast to her posture and figure, her face was full of naivety and childishness.
\'Damn\' Atlas thought while looking at her with his metaphorical working mouth agape.
She had an oval face and a sharp nose while her skin was smooth and reflected the light that shone on the whole room.
While looking a little more down, Atlas could clearly see two children, which couldn\'t be more than 8, which looked like identical copies of each other. Nonetheless, the aura both of them radiated while looking at Atlas was the complete opposite.
One was looking at Atlas with a smug grin. He had gelled back dirty blonde hair while the other one Seemed smaller than his brother even though they were the same size. The kid had hair identical to his Father\'s, just on a smaller head, while all his limbs were as close to the center of his body as they could be while standing as if he was conserving heat.
They both had Bright Blue eyes looking directly towards Atlas. Actually, all the eyes in the room were looking towards him at the moment.
\'Why the fuck are they all looking at me like that, do I have something on my face? They are all looking at me like a coma patient that had woken up after 5 years of slumber. And what the hell is this shack I\'m in?\'
Then, Atlas Had finally realized that he wasn\'t on a bed, but rather, he was on a giant pair of thighs. The old woman quickly walked towards him with a calming look and held him up before tapping on his head with her middle finger.
A strange surge of energy entered Atlas\' body which gave him a strange feeling of pleasure and drowsiness yet he didn\'t sleep. For some reason unknown to him, he had a strange urge to play golf which he had never done before.
<"she\'s fine, I\'m sure of it. However, it is quite strange why she won\'t cry at all though. Also, it\'s almost like she\'s glaring at me">
\'Hmm, why is this woman looking at me like that huh?\' Atlas thought as he raised his arm in the air to slap her hand away, just to see a pair of hands that he did not recognize.
\'hm? What the hell happened to my hands? they are kinda fat and... small....\'
\'oh no, don\'t tell me... i\'ve reincarnated into another world! THAT ONLY HAPPENS IN ANIME THOUGH! N-no... I must calm down, there is no doubt about it. this might be a blessing in disguise, a new family, a new life?!?!?\'
damn, the only thing that i can see that might be a pain in the ass to live here in this world. they have different morals and ethics than 21st century earth and the plagues, the royals and nobles, forced marriages are a thing... Maybe this place kinda sucks too huh?\' Atlas thought
<"Mom? what are you going to name her"> said the girl with golden hair
<"Me and your father have been thinking of a name for her for the last month or so and since we didn\'t know if she would be a girl or boy, I made many possible names... but now the only name I can think of while looking at her is... Pandora \'\'> the woman with long golden hair and bright cyan eyes as she started to breastfeed her child.
\'I can get used to this\' thought Atlas as he looked at the young and more beautiful replica of the old woman that was staring at him before.
Yet in the same moment, all his memories of all the bad experiences he had with his siblings and parents flooded back filling his heart with both pain and doubt.. In contrast, the violet black flame within him started to flicker hungrily, inpatient for its next meal.
