James' eyes opened wide as he heard the gunshots in his mind; a moment later, he groaned in pain from the pain in his head. A memory of someone entered his mind in an instant.
 
The pain was quick, but it felt like hours later to James. When the pain no longer hit him, James opened his eyes again. Its glare was sharp and cold, as if it could cut through flesh with a sword.
 
James looked around. The room, designed in a European style, was foreign to James but had a familiar feeling. James knew that he was currently entering the body of a useless prince.
 
After his death at Sam's hands, James' soul awakens in the body of a prince living in the 19th century. James is thrown very far into the past before James, who lives in the 21st century.
 
From the memories that entered his head, James was revived in the body of an outcast Prince. That Prince had the same name as him, Prince James of the Red Moon Kingdom.
 
Prince James lives in one of the castles at the back of the kingdom. The place was seldom visited by crowds, with only a few servants on duty to serve Prince James.
 
Even so, James was happy with this. It meant no one would disturb him, and this place was also quite spacious, so James could freely do whatever he wanted.
 
Prince James' body is frail; he can't do martial arts, and he always reads books about politics. However, he seems determined and ambitious enough to occupy the throne of the Red Moon Kingdom.
 
Prince James has no rival for the throne; he only has a younger sister who loves him very much as a brother. It was just that his father, King Arthur, had no desire to make James his successor. Apart from not being able to use martial arts, James is also very weak.
 
It was also why his father sent James to the castle behind the palace so that James could reflect on himself and become a typical prince, as King Arthur and the people of the Red Moon Kingdom wished.
 
However, someone didn't want Prince James to stay alive—the man who poisoned James' coffee. The deadly poison even works very quickly. In just a matter of minutes, Prince James had breathed his last.
 
The good thing is that an hour later, James repopulated the soul in Prince James's body. No one knows about Prince James's actual death; they don't know that Prince James' soul is lazy and can't use martial arts.
 
He has become the soul of James, who came from the 21st century. A great man whose name is often hailed for his work that touched the hearts of millions of people. However, there was something they didn't know about James they knew.
 
In addition to these achievements, James has a hobby that has yet to be discovered. He does not know—his high martial arts ability since he was in middle school. James also can ride and use weapons, including a sword.
 
However, because James is more interested in journalism, he left all these hobbies and chose to study journalism. James' journalism skills would only be helpful in his new world.
 
All the hobbies he has ever done are the most valuable things in this world, especially for himself. From now on, James has to start honing his martial arts, sword, and riding skills well.
 
He would change the image of Prince James, who could not defend himself and was lazy, to the valiant, brave, and great Prince James. Imagining everyone's shock at Prince James's transformation, which would make their eyes widen, James smiled lopsidedly.
 
"Father, look. This child of yours is going to turn out to be great."
 
Knock knock...
 
"Prince James..."
 
"Come in," James replied.
A man in European-style clothes came into James' view. The man entered in a state of respectful bowing of the head, with both hands resting in front of his stomach.
 
"What's the matter, Hugo."
 
"Earlier a servant hurriedly came to me, telling me that the Prince was sick. Is it true that Prince James is sick?" he asked, now daring to look at James' face.
 
Hugo was a little surprised to see James' face look cold and flat. His gaze was very sharp, like a sword coming from it. Hugo was a little nervous when he saw James staring at him intensely.
 
James knew the man before him; from Prince James' memory, he was one of Prince James' confidants. Hugo was a person who had high loyalty to him; James could count on this person well in the future.
 
"Do I look like a sick person?"
 
"N-no Prince, you look very healthy and fresh," he replied nervously.
 
Hugo could indeed see if James looked healthy. Even the aura he emitted could prove that James was in good condition.
 
"Then I will resign, Prince."
 
"Wait a minute," said James.
 
Hugo, who was just about to take a step back, stopped for a moment. "Does the Prince need anything?" he asked.
 
"Bring the maid here to see me," James ordered Hugo.
 
"Very well, Prince."
 
Hugo left James' room with polite steps. James woke up from his sleep, standing in front of the mirror, almost the same height as his body. James' body was clad in European-style clothes, similar to the one used by Hugo earlier. It's just that James's looks more luxurious and classy.
 
Prince James's face is also similar to James's natural face; this face looks more handsome than he used to be. Understandably, James always worked outdoors. His skin is exposed to sunburn and dust daily, making it darker and duller.
 
Meanwhile, Prince James is always in his room. This man rarely leaves the castle and spends his time reading books on politics. James holds his face, which feels soft and white.
 
"Her skin is like a woman's, does she use facial treatments that are often used by women," James touched his smooth face.
 
"This body is too thin for a man, the skin is too smooth, and not even the palms of his hands have calluses. Truly a woman's body, just watches I will turn her into a real manly man."
 
James smiled lopsidedly at his reflection in the mirror, or rather, the reflection of Prince James. James himself doesn't know how his natural body is at this time, but what is certain is that James knows if the body is dead.
 
Remembering it made James clench his jaw and clench his fists hard. Sam, his partner who had killed James, was someone James had considered a friend.
 
However, he didn't expect Sam to be so cruel as to kill James like that. The chance of James' life was great, not to mention that there was another life that James was carrying on his back at that time. If Sam hadn't shot him, he might as well have survived.
 
James knew Sam had the ambition to beat him and win his title as the best journalist. James never had a problem with Sam's reputation because they worked in the same field. Of course, it was a very natural thing to happen.
 
Now, James knows how rotten and hypocritical Sam is. All this time, the man has only used him and is looking for opportunities to bring down James' good name. But his efforts always fail and never bear fruit.
 
As a result, Sam resorted to a more ruthless way of getting rid of him and not just getting rid of him from the company and kicking his journalism career. Sam also killed James' life; Sam didn't even think about the life of the person James was trying to save at that time and let him die with him.
 
"A life will cost a life, Sam," he hissed, looking out at the darkening sky and making a roar.
