Gauss opened his eyes.
He felt a bit dizzy.
The blinding sunlight flooded into his vision, making him dazed.
He raised his hand to block the sunlight.
"Where am I..."
He looked around in confusion.
His mind felt like it had been wiped, as if he'd blacked out from drinking—memories went briefly blank.

And after that, activated the "Teleportation Scroll".
Gauss's last memory stayed on that looming, ever-closer blade-like limb.
He touched his head and body.
All intact—it seemed he had teleported away smoothly at the time, and avoided that dreaded downward slash!
But how did I end up here?
The surroundings were clearly a meticulously arranged inn room: warm wooden floors, a soft bed.
