Chapter 1 Alive

An intense pain pulled Sylvia out of the darkness overwhelming her. Sylvia gasp out heavily as she opened her eyes. The intense brightness hit her eyes making it feel stung, and she quickly shut back her aching eyes. Finally, she opened her eyes slowly getting use to the sudden brightness. Turning her head, she found the surrounding in front of her unfamiliar. 'Where am I?' Sylvia opened her mouth to speak but her sparsely dried throat hurts so much, and she could only make a hoarse sound bringing out some inaudible words. Her struggle paid fort as she finally made some words, "Where am I?" However, the room was silent and there wasn't the reply she was expecting. But something magical happened because a voice suddenly sounded in her head. [Due to the emergency appearance of the void, Susu didn't manage to save the host body but was fortunately to save the host soul and opened a passage another world. Susu will start importing memories of this body to the host. Initializing memory transfer…15%...35%...] Void? Soul? Sylvia was still thinking about the situation when a sudden intense pain hit her. Her brain was suddenly filled with countless memories of another person. Joy, sadness and countless memory fragments. [Memory transfer completed. Susu expends a lot of energy bypassing portal. So, Susu will enter a state of hibernation. Susu hope host can absorb more energy for Susu to wake up] And then the hibernation mode sounded. The mechanical voice with a tinge of intelligence could no longer be heard. The room was in tranquility. Sylvia skimmed through the original body memory, and the only thing that could come to her mind was three words. 'I'm dead' Yeah, she was busy traveling the star when suddenly a black void appeared and sucked her in with the space ship. The void was a wormhole that most starship drivers feared. But the probability of it occurring was 0.00000001 percent and that probability was what happened to her. What a bad luck she has. Well, she has always been a person with bad luck since the beginning. Sylvia was an ordinary girl living with her happy family until one day, everything changed. Her sweet mother died of cancer. And it hasn't been a week when she was still mourning of her mother death, that her father brings home another woman with two children, a boy and girl respectively. Her father cheated on her mother. Seeing those kids who were almost up to her age, it shows that he had cheated from the very beginning. Sylvia couldn't help think of those days, he would smile at her mother and whisper softly in her ear. Yet, who knew such a scumbag was a chronic cheat who've had two kids outside. Her mother fell ill when she gave birth to her, and couldn't conceive anymore. Due to what happened, she felt guilty to her husband because of her state. But who knew the whole person she was feeling guilty for till her death bed, already had two children close to her daughter age outside. She was 12 when she started to experience the reality of life. Well, she was still contented since she could still find a job to feed herself. However, things got much worse when the apocalypse arrived. This was something Sylvia never imagined to occur. She was later sold by her father and stepmother in exchange for food. Thank goodness she escaped the predicament and strive to fend for herself. She experienced so many things, hate, betrayal. There was nothing like humanity in the apocalypse. Such a young girl live such life filled with evil, till her personality turned cold and expressionless. She never bath an eyelid when killing. To her, it was just like killing something insignificant. The apocalypse finally came to an end. Several technologies where invented. It was then announced that human life span had broken through the normal threshold. Humans could now live to thousands of years. And likewise, the good news also came with bad news. The earth was unsuitable for living, since it had long been polluted due to the apocalypse arrival. So, humans had to migrate to Mars. But first, an experiment must be carried out. Sylvia was part of the experiment. She was injected and planted something in her body, and that was where the mystery of Susu an AI came from. Once the planet was suitable for living, human migrate in, leading to a life of technology. And since something like apocalypse could occur, it was not known when something like space monsters could also occur. She joined in the army to fight against space monsters. Her life was spent in the space till her death, and now there was a new life in front of her. The original owner died due to poison. But the poison had already been cleared during the body take over. The original owner was from a rich family. However, both of her parent died during the beast riot, leaving behind the original owner and her two years old brother. Sylvia found that this place was very similar to her former living place. There were beasts, and the technology was much more advanced. The original owner had to take over the company of her parents, but since she was still a high school girl, she left it to her father close personal assistant. The company could have boomed in the hand of her close father assistant. However, the original owner was a spendthrift. There was a male god whom the original owner had a crush on. The original owner would purchase high grade beast core worth of money, and send it as a gift to the male god. Well, the original owner wasn't the only one chasing the male god. There were other girls who were also wealthier than the original owner, and would buy millions worth of goods to gift to the male god. Not wanting to be left out, the original owner would also buy and buy, till the company went bankrupt. What prompt the original owner to commit suicide, was because of yesterday event. Yesterday, the original owner confesses her feeling publicly to the male god, but was rejected brutally in front of the whole school. Sad, the original owner ran home crying, but when she saw the video of her confession went viral on the web, her heart broke down totally. Making it worse, was the letter of expulsion she receives from the school, which prompt her to commit suicide. Sylvia didn't care about whatever the original owner was feeling. Since she was so courageous to eat poison, that shows that she wasn't willing to live. This was a body Susu found for her and now that she has taken over it, she would start over afresh. The only thing she could do for the original owner, was to take care of her left behind younger brother, who was now four years old. Cold and expressionless, Sylvia got out of the bed and went into the bathroom to wash her sticky body. In the reflection in the bathroom mirror, she saw a face quite similar to hers, but there were still some differences. Her back then, was thin, and suffered from malnutrition, that even after the apocalypse ended, she was still frail and thin, but the image in front of her was healthier. Sylvia stepped out of the bathroom and walked into the cloak room. There were so many bright dresses that it stung her eyes. She saw the rainbow color clothes in the cloak room, and her face which was always expressionless suddenly showed a rare stunned look. After rummaging through the clothes, she finally found a black sportswear to wear. That was the only suitable dress she could find for herself to wear. She put them on and stepped out of her room. The Austen's parents, that is the original owner parents, bought a huge Vila to live in with their children. Who knew that not long they move in, their life would be lost. There was a sound of laughter down the stairs. Sylvia looked down, and saw the original owner brother, Asher playing with the AI robot in the sitting room. Asher was so absorbed in playing that he didn't know when Sylvia approached him. Sylvia watched as Asher played with the AI robot. This kind of cheerful feeling, it's been long since she experienced it. Even when the apocalypse ended, one could still notice the cautiousness in the eyes of the people whenever they move about. Therefore, she was very novice when facing this kind of feeling. Asher finally notice her standing at the side. His face suddenly showed a shocked look. "I…I…." The four-year-old boy trembled as he tried to find a word to say. Sylvia almost forgot that the original owner never liked her brother, and never see to eye with him. However, she wasn't the original owner. She raised her hand and beaconed to the still trembling boy. Asher walked forward slowly and stammered, "I… don't hit me." The boy shut his eyes when he stood in front of her. Sylvia's lip showed a rare smile, and she bend lower to the kid heights. "I'm not going to hit you." Stunned, the boy opened his eyes and looked at her with an innocent look. Children knows whether someone likes them or not. So, when Asher looked at Sylvia and didn't detect any malicious intent, he was then assured that she wouldn't hit him. "Okay." Sylvia wasn't good at talking with kids so she didn't know what to say next. Struggling to find something to say, she finally spoke, "Have you eaten?" "Ehh." Asher nodded. The food Sylvia was talking about was a solution liquid called nutrient solution, which comprise of the daily nutrients the body needs. "Then continue playing. Sister will go out and will be back immediately." "Okay." Asher watched her left and finally talked to the robot. "Bai, sister spoke to me. Does that mean sister isn't angry with me and likes me. I don't want sister to get angry with me." Bai the robot who had no idea what Asher was talking about: "…"
