Chapter 1 Shalan
Between the high blue sky and the open green lawn, stands a mansion consisting of towering white stone pillars, intricately carved ebony doors and windows, and beige exterior walls full of a sense of history.
The Werman Manor on the outskirts of Cynthia City is the residence of Rawl Werman, the current Minister of Foreign Trade of the Ministry of Commerce of the Kingdom of Greenland, who is in charge of more than half of the foreign trade of the Kingdom of Greenland. As an important official and hereditary earl family in the Kingdom of Greenland, the Werman Manor can be said to be one of the most luxurious residences in Cynthia City.
But today, the Wermann Manor seemed particularly tense. The maids walked hurriedly in the manor. They usually talked and laughed, but today they dared not say a word, for fear of incurring the anger of the usually gentle Count Rawl Wermann.
In the secondary bedroom on the left side of the master bedroom on the third floor of the mansion, Rawl Unermann held his son's hand tightly and looked at his eldest son with a bandage wrapped around his head with a worried look on his face.
Ever since his eldest son, Sharan Unmann, fell down the stairs and broke his head three days ago, Rawl Unmann has been in a state of worry and anxiety.
Although his eldest son, Sharan, was unlearned and often caused trouble, which made him angry, Rawl-Wermann loved this only son left by his beloved ex-wife more than any other children. Otherwise, he would not have been able to retain his right to inherit his title when his eldest son, Sharan, was so unlearned.
"Doctor Yuta, when can my son Shalan wake up?" Looking at the elderly doctor who was examining Shalan, Luo's face was full of worry.
"My Lord Earl, the young master's condition has stabilized, but his injury is to the head, which is the most mysterious part of the body. I can only assure you that the young master's injury is gone, but I don't know when he will wake up."
"Okay! Thank you, Doctor Uta...Butler, please send Doctor Uta to rest for me, and I will double the consultation fee!"
"Yes, Master."
Wang Xi opened his eyes and looked at the completely unfamiliar ceiling. He slowly sat up and looked at the spacious and luxurious bedroom that was completely different from his small apartment of 30 square meters. He looked at his hands in a daze.
These hands were slender and white, not at all the rough hands that had been forged from countless jobs and experiences in the underworld.
Just when Wang Xi hadn't figured out what was going on, the bedroom door was pushed open, and two girls, probably sixteen or seventeen years old, dressed in maid outfits, walked in with warm water and towels.
When the two of them saw Wang Xi sitting on the bed, the basins filled with warm water in their hands fell directly to the ground, and most of the warm water spilled, wetting the carpet.
The two girls immediately came to Wang Xi's side, and said with surprise and disbelief on their faces: "Master Shalan, you are awake? That's great, we will go tell the Earl now."
"Master Shalan? Are you talking about me? I'm Wang Xi, why do they call me Shalan? I..."
Before Wang Xi, or Shalan, could figure it out, his head suddenly began to hurt severely. A large number of unfamiliar memories and pictures flooded into his mind, causing Shalan to faint instantly, and he fell straight onto the bed again.
After an unknown amount of time, Shalan slowly woke up. At this time, there were many more memories in his mind that did not belong to him. Finally, Shalan knew what kind of situation he was in.
He traveled through time and space, from being a person from the lower class of society who was born in an orphanage on Earth and mingled in the underworld, to becoming the eldest son of an earl's family. As for this world, it is completely different from his previous life, not only in terms of its composition, but also in terms of race, language, culture, history, and even the direction of technological development.
Generally speaking, the technological level of this world is roughly maintained at the level of the 1930s and 1940s on Earth in Shalan's previous life, which is the level of the Second World War on Earth in the previous life. However, in terms of people's livelihood such as education and medical care, it has almost surpassed the level of the 2020s of the 21st century.
Moreover, Shallan could vaguely recall that the people in this world seemed to be extremely superstitious. They believed in many supernatural events and strictly adhered to the customs passed down by ancient people.
When Shalan opened her eyes again, she looked at Luo Er, who was holding her hand and sitting beside the bed with a worried look on his face. She smiled and said, "Father, why are you here?"
Seeing Shalan wake up, Luo Er's face immediately showed joy. He reached out and touched Shalan's tired face, nodded and said, "Okay, okay, I'm glad you woke up. I'm glad you woke up. It's worth it for me to accompany you every day for the past month. I'm glad you woke up.
Butler, send a hundred gold coins to Doctor Jutta later, and give ten gold coins to each of the two maids who discovered Shalan waking up. As for the other servants in the house, they have worked hard over the past month, so give each of them an extra ten silver coins as a bonus."
When the butler heard what Luo Er said, he immediately bowed respectfully and said, "As you wish, Lord Earl."
Looking at the butler leaving, Luo Er turned to look at Shalan, a smile bloomed on his face again, and he began to ask about her well-being.
Although she still has the memories of the original Shalan, Shalan's own personality and habits are inherited from Wang Xi in her previous life. The physical pain already made it difficult for Shalan to concentrate, and constantly disguising herself with the memories and habits of the original Shalan made Shalan feel extremely tired.
Therefore, without talking to Luo Er for too long, he used physical fatigue and pain as an excuse to want to rest quietly alone. Luo Er did not suspect him and immediately cleared the crowd. Except for leaving an experienced maid to guard the door, the rest of the people all left the area near Shalan's room.
Looking at the room that fell into darkness again after turning off the lights, Shalan looked at the window where he deliberately asked the maid to open the curtains. The starry sky outside the window was twinkling, and slowly Shalan fell into sleep again.
In her dream, Shalan saw many scenes, including her own experiences in her previous life and the memories of the original Shalan. The two memories mixed together to form a seemingly real world.
When he woke up again, Shalan looked at the sunlight coming in from the window. He knew that both the tomb robber Wang Xi in his previous life and the noble playboy Shalan in this life had completely disappeared, and in their place was a brand new reborn Shalan - Werman!
