Omniversal Travel

Chapter 1: Chapter 1:The abandoned child



On a hospital stretcher lay a thin young man, he had no eyebrows or hair and his eyes seemed unfocused, next to him was a nurse who was telling him something to which he did not pay attention, lost in his thoughts, the nurse took out a syringe and He injected it into his arm, suddenly the young man's entire body began to tremble as a sharp pain ran through his entire body. The last thing he heard was the nurse's panicked screams. When he regained consciousness he felt strange, he tried to open the eyes but his eyelids seemed too heavy, he tried to move his limbs but he felt like he was swimming in muddy water, he suddenly had a theory that seemed crazy, to confirm his theory, he tried to touch his navel, and as he guessed there it was, an umbilical cord .

"Sigh, I can't believe that nurse injected me with the wrong serum and ended up killing me before my time, at least I wish my death was painless, but on the other hand it seems that I hit the jackpot and soon I will have a new life, alone I hope there are no complications and that this time he has a healthy body." Thought the young man, now converted into a baby inside his mother's womb.

"I wonder if I was reborn on earth or in another world?" He continued rambling when he suddenly felt his body being expelled outwards.

After a few uncomfortable minutes he felt his eyelids burning and a soft breeze touched his skin. Suddenly someone slapped his butt and as a reflex he opened his mouth and started crying.

When he opened his eyes he saw a bearded man staring at him, after a few moments the man handed the baby to his mother, who gave him just one look before putting him next to her and ignoring him when he began to argue with the man in a language that he did not understand, upon seeing the dilapidated state of the room he was in he suddenly thought that perhaps his new life was not going to be as good as he first imagined, but he soon threw all those thoughts to the back of his mind when He fell asleep, when he woke up he found himself again in the arms of the man who he assumed was his father. When he looked around he saw that they were in the middle of a busy street with people wearing medieval-style clothing. "I guess I was reincarnated." in a medieval world, I wonder if it's a magical world like those isekais I read." He thought to himself when he noticed his father turning to walk into a dark alley. His heart skipped a beat when he felt something was wrong, and Indeed, he saw how his father bent down to open the lid of a manhole and get into it, then he left the baby on the ground and walked away, closing the lid behind him.

"Shit! Shit! Shit! That crazy guy just abandoned me in a fucking sewer, since you don't want to take responsibility for at least leaving me in an orphanage or a church at least, what happens if I get eaten by rats? After panicking over a After a while, he quickly calmed down and thought about doing the only thing he could do to get out of this situation, cry. And so he began to cry in the hope of getting the attention of someone who could get him out of his situation, but it seemed that his hopes would soon be dashed. They would fade with what was left of his energy. When he was about to fall asleep again, he noticed how a figure opened the manhole cover and lifted him off the ground. When he noticed that someone was holding him, he finally relaxed and immediately fell asleep. The figure, Seeing this, she smiled, when she came out, her figure was revealed, she was a young woman who seemed to be about 20 years old, with blonde hair adorned with floral decorations, while on her back she carried a strange looking wooden cane. The young woman He looked back at the baby with a soft smile before walking towards the outskirts of the city.

...

When he opened his eyes,he found himself in someone's arms,when he turned to see who was holding him,he realized it was an old man,he had a hooked nose,a long unkempt beard and on his head he wore a hat adorned with sticks and twigs.The old man,noticing that the baby woke up,smiled at him and then started talking to the young woman next to him,the young woman approached and then took out what looked like a bottle and put it in the baby's mouth. The baby,hungry,drank the milk willingly,when he finished his milk,he began to observe the surroundings,he noticed that they were in the middle of what looked like a small settlement in the middle of the forest,there were about 10 huts mades of bushes and wooden branches,the people walking through the settlement wore the same strange style of clothing,brown robes and decorations of flowers or twigs on their heads. When he got bored of observing the surroundings, he began to listen to what the old man and the young woman were saying in the hope of catching some words but without success.

"Hey Lyana, do you really want me to take care of this baby? I'm getting too old for this kind of thing, don't you think?" the old man asked as he teased the baby.

"Look at you, you're smiling, you seem to like the kid," Lyana replied.

"Haha,you're right,for some reason I seem to like this child,look at him,he looks so cute,besides if in the future he turns out to be a source then we can instruct him in the way of nature and make him a druid.

"I still don't understand how anyone could be so cruel as to abandon their child in a gutter,if they wanted to they could have left him in an orphanage. "Lyana commented with disgust in her voice.

"Silly girl,you're still young,you still haven't seen how rotten people are,that's why I told you you need to get out more often,you need to see the world!"

"Sigh,you're rambling again already,you seem to be getting more senile every day."

The old man looked at the baby again and rebutted, "I'm not senile,it's my character,but leaving that aside,what are we going to name the baby?

Lyana began to think deeply, while the old man mumbled different names that he thought sounded great until he blurted out a name that made the baby's eyes widen and the old man, seeing the baby's reaction, laughed heartily and proclaimed, "It's decided, from today your name will be Vilgefortz".

The baby, now named Vilgefortz, blinked twice in confusion.

"I didn't understand anything that old man said, but the last thing he said was a name, that's my new name, but how? Could it be a coincidence?or did I really get reborn as fucking Vilgefortz? "His thoughts were cut off when wrinkled hands lifted him off the old man's lap,turning his head he saw it was a kind looking old woman smiling at him,the old woman snuggled him into her embrace and then spoke:Old Vecell,being so noisy you'll end up scaring the poor baby,besides,Vilgefortz,really?how can you be so horrible with names?why won't you let me name him?

Vecell, the old man, replied irritably: "Narika, old hag, I have decided to take in this baby as my grandchild, so obviously only I can give him a name".

The old woman scoffed, "Really, do you even know how to change diapers?

Vecell was speechless.

The old woman turned and said as she walked, "Well, let's go inside the hut to let the baby sleep."

The old woman, Narika, stood in front of the hut that strangely seemed to lack an entrance door, grabbed a wooden stick she carried on her back and waved it a couple of times before touching the hut with it. Vilgefortz, who decided to call himself Viltz for short, watched with wide eyes as the branches began to twist and then form a large hole through which the old woman, the old man and the young woman entered, after which the vines twisted again until they sealed the previously formed hole.

Viltz,who had not yet recovered from the shock of witnessing magic for the first time,was left on a small table by the old woman,who turned to the old man and said: "Look old man,I'll only explain it to you once,to put a diaper on a baby you have to do it like this. "Viltz, helpless, could only watch as the old woman put on the diaper while the old man at her side stared at her so as not to miss a step of the old woman's movements.

After changing his diaper, the old woman Narika left him on a straw bed to sleep and then left the hut with the old man Vecell and the young Lyana.

Viltz, now alone, stared at the roof of the hut while thinking to himself: "It seems that my guess is right, I am reincarnated as Vilgefortz of Roggeveen, one of the antagonists of "The Witcher" story,and the most talented sorcerer in this entire world,but despite this,Vilgefortz went down the dark path,abandoning the teachings of the druids and working as a mercenary and spy.He then became obsessed with the elder blood,a gene that allows its user some control over space-time,with it,its bearer can open portals to other worlds,but Vilgefortz's plans ended up being ruined and he ended up dying at the hands of Geralt of Rivia. But I don't have to follow in his footsteps, I'll take the opportunities he missed and avoid making the same mistakes he did."

Resolution shone in the eyes of the baby barely a day old as he made an oath in his heart: "Whatever happens, and whatever it takes, I will achieve what the original Vilgefortz could not achieve, I will gain control over the greater blood and travel through the different worlds, besides, if the world of "The Witcher" is real, there will be other worlds based on video games, books, anime?"

With this new oath made just like that and a lot of questions roaming through his mind,exhaustion caught up with him and he quickly fell asleep.
