I feel difficulty in breathing it feels like I am in a tight place filled with a viscous fluid I tried to open my eyes but I am can't able to see anything but after trying to move my body I feel a wall like structure in front of me.
I don't know about this place but I am at least felling my body it is still better than that infinite void, thinking this in my mind I tried to hit that wall with my hand but my hand didn't move but ignoring this I tried to hit that wall with my head and as a result of my actions that wall showed a crack after seeing light seeping from that crack I further intensified my actions and finally crack wide enough to pass through opened in that wall.
I crawled my way through out of that wall then I realise something important I don't feel my hands or legs trying to access the situation I move my head to see my body there I see a slender black tail and long snake like body seeing further I see the wall I came out from that wall is a giant egg with a giant crack in it processing the situation I realise that I am now snake that damn system reincarnated me even after I tell it to send me back, heck even if I reincarnated it should wipe out my memory now I am stuck in this snake body with human body.
Sigh! after accepting my situation I tried to access my situation I am currently in a damp cave with same type of eggs surrounding me some snakes started breaking out of there egg some snakes that successfully break out starting to eat their egg shell clearly hungry trying imitate them I also tried to eat my egg shell filling my stomach the egg shell had a crunchy taste.
After eating his egg shell he again focuses in his surrounding some snakes had eaten their fill some are still eating some are still in their egg as beastly they are some snakes start fighting as soon as they are born some snakes pushed their brothers and eating their egg shells.
Seeing this chaos in this cave I tried to move out of this place as I don't want to wait for snake mother to arrive what if she is hungry and tried to eat her children as snakes are infamous for doing this.
After crawling on the wet stones of the cave for some time I finally reached the entrance of the cave from there I finally able to see sunlight, moving out of the cave I see a clear bright sky with beautiful clouds roaming in it. Moving away from the sky I see a forest in front of me with lush trees and vegetation it reminds me of amazon rain forest. Did I reincarnate in amazon this maybe good as I will be away from human civilisation and with my, intelligence I will be able to think about and find a way to adapt in this life.
Moving away from the cave I moved through grasses finally resting in shade of a rock after that I start thinking about my life for someone who has been died and reincarnated in body of a snake I seem to be too calm but that is because of my ability to remain calm in dire situations from my life experience in life and my knowledge from learning about sages and scholars, the only thing I understand is that, "we should accept life as it is" this makes many things easy.
Thinking about myself I change my focus from my situation I stare at my body my skin is black as it seems with tiny scales on my skin I have a length 30 cm approximately from the looks of it I should be a species of python.
As I was thinking all about this I suddenly feel movement turning my head towards the movement I feel I see a large shadow moving towards that cave after getting clear picture on it I finally see a large panther as large as car standing in front of the cave roaring towards it after what it seems to be 5 minutes of roaring a hissing sound heard from the cave then a long snake with a length of 15 meter crawled out hissing violently against the panther that snake is all black with shimmering black scales all over it.
Seeing that black snake crawled out of the cave I realised that maybe this is supposed to be my snake mother currently confronting this giant black panther, as I was thinking about this the snake moved her body towards panther with a lightning speed obviously trying to strangle him but panther easily dodged her attack moving to the side, seeing this the snake got more angrier and straighten her body moving her towards panther now to predators are looking each other in eye one is aggressor and other one is trying to protect its territory if you ignore their abnormal size then this scene is a normal occurrence in jungle and can be called as law of jungle.
As I was staring at this scene something strange happened the snake opened its mouth and some kind of mist start swirling from its mouth and suddenly it form a icicle and shot it towards panther this scene was something that I never imagined in my wildest dreams but fight is still going on the icicle suddenly hit panther on his left shoulder gouging a wound in his body but rather then retreating it roar towards snake along with slight sparks of lightning flashed in his body it moved in a zig-zag pattern towards snake and after closing in he shot his claw in lightning speed towards snake's head and with a splash! Sound snake's head got separated from her body with this snake's life ended her body still moving in a reckless manner squirm in ground but panther ignored it he move towards cave entrance after standing in front of the cave he opened his mouth and with it lightning sparks flew out and entered the cave clearly killing anyone that came in their path.
Seeing all this I suddenly fell goosebumps standing all over my body even if I am a snake now in front of me my supposed snake mother and siblings are killed by a panther and worst of it my mother and panther both of them have some kind of elemental power.
This realization came suddenly that maybe that damned system didn't send me back on earth but reincarnated me in another world within a snake's body. Now I am stuck here with nothing to rely on and a jungle full hostility against a small creature like me.
Sigh! sighing again I tried the most important thing I called, "system are you there"
No reply I called again, "hey idiot system are you here"
No reply after trying again for some times I realise that system or what ever that thing was didn't come with me.
Sigh! that is good thing as I don't want to play in plot of any higher being now first thing first I moved away from that place as panther now moved inside the cave climbing a tree in some distance away from that place I stop and decided to first organise my survival goal as that would make things easy for me.
First I need to decide a new name for me as for my older name that would be lost with my older life that should be the case as I don't want to live in past now for the name "Vik" should do as this is not a long name and easy to spell and from now on I should be called "Vik"
Deciding his new name Vik now moved on a new journey of leaving his past self and becoming something great something that would be called and feared as "Saintly Scholar Snake" but that would be for future now he still need to think about survival in this dark forest.
