《Transmigrated Due To Misfortune》 1 Chapter 1 - Prologue XXXX, November 12, 10 Years ago, a new disease appeared called "Enigma", it was named due to how mysterious it was, it appeared for no reasons and no one knew how it was caught, the symptoms were simple, a long and painful death, although there were no cures yet and it was still unknown how to prevent getting it, scientists still found a way to allow one to have bigger lifespan. The reason I think of that? Very simple, both of my parents contracted this disease exactly 1 Year ago and I decided to go visit them in the hospital. Right before I could enter the Hospital, white fog appeared around me before quickly dissipating, I find myself in a strange white room, A strange silhouette appears in front of me, A beautiful woman with long white hair and blue eyes showing incredible wisdom appears but I start wondering, who is she and why is she here? [Hero, please help us vanquish the Demons and the Demon King] She said while showing a helpless smile. "Who are you and why would I want to do that?" Hearing what I said the woman just smiled before showing an image, it was an image of my parents in their hospital''s bed [My name is Vyridia, I''m a goddess, as for why you should accept to help us, the reason is simple, I can save your parents but if you don''t, I guess you know what will happen] She proceeded to destroy the image before showing a cunning smile, "You can''t even save yourself, how could you save my parents?" I said rather angry after what happened but this sentence seemed to have angered. [I guess this will make you believe me] On one of her hand a flame appeared and on the other one what seemed to be a bubble of water appeared, she then threw it to the ground right below her. *BOOOOM* The Ground directly exploded when it came in contact with the bubble and the flame, while the smoke was dissipating, the woman spoke again [Tomorrow at 09:42, sit on the bus near XXXX Coffee, if you want to bring someone with you make them sit next to you. I hope to see you soon . . ] After saying that, white fog surrounded me again and I was back to being in front of the Hospital, I didn''t move for some minutes due to how confused I was, after processing everything, I decided to do what this self-proclaimed Goddess said, either it was fake and nothing happened or it was true and my parents could truly be saved . . . 2 Chapter 2 - Transmigration XXXX, November 13, Near a Bus Spot, an average-looking young man with blond hair and blue eyes waited anxiously while thinking, ''I really hope that what she said isn''t a joke'', very soon, the bus appeared at the same hour the self-proclaimed Goddess said. The Young Man quickly rushed inside and sat, he then heard something in his head [Prepare to Transmigrate. .] [10 . . ] [9 . . ] [8 . . ] [7 . . ] When he heard "7", he also started hearing the sound of the doors closing and it seemed that there was no one willing to sit next to him, he was quite pleased because he didn''t want to bring anyone with him considering that it would be quite dangerous but this joy wasn''t lasting long considering that right before the door entirely closed, he heard someone screaming "WAIT !!" After hearing the scream, the bus driver stopped closing the doors and let the person enter the Bus, it was a handsome young man with messy black hair and brown eyes, his face was red and he was sweating, he seemed to have ran to get on the bus, after seeing a free bus seat, he showed a smile before going to sit. Although the blond-haired young man wanted to stop the other young man from sitting, he seemed to have been too late because the moment the black-haired young man sat, the message already said [Please Prepare For The Transmigration!] Blue light then started surrounding both young men before their bodies disappeared. I heard the sound of my clock, I wanted to sleep a bit more but I still opened some of my eyes to look at the time, [9:35], ''Oh Fuck, I''m going to be Late'', I thought, I quickly grabbed my clothes, I had no time to take a breakfast nor did I had any to brush my teeth. After running for some minutes, I saw that the bus was about to leave, I screamed "WAIT!!" Lucky me, the bus driver actually let me enter the bus, I''m so tired with all this running, luckily there seems to be an empty seat, when I went to the seat, the young man sitting right next to it looked rather surprised and looked like he wanted to say me something but I had already sat on the seat. [Please Prepare For The Transmigration!] Did I take some drugs accidentally? What the hell is this? After hearing this, a blue light started surrounding me and the other guy, I then felt as if my body was traveling at extremely high speed and ended up on the floor of what seemed to be a Prison? I was also surrounded by other peoples, I''d say around 7 but only 1 other person was surprised... --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "WHERE ARE WE!?" A beautiful woman looking around 23, screamed, with a scared voice. An average-looking man with glasses proceeded to answer, "Didn''t you get the Invitation from Vyridia too?", the black-haired young man and the beautiful woman looked even more confused. The same man said with what seemed to be an angry tone, "Don''t tell me you guys were accidentally summoned due to the carelessness of someone!?", hearing this, the Black-Haired Young Man seemed to have understood, with his finger, he pointed the Blond-Haired Young Man and said "That''s why you seemed to want to say something to me when I went to sit next to you!". Everybody''s faces turned toward the Blond-Haired Young Man who then helplessly nodded, "I''m sorry to have dragged you here due to my carelessness". The beautiful woman also seemed to have been enlightened and looked toward a fat man with obvious hostility, "You Bastard! You knew it and still dragged me here right!?", she then slowly walked toward him then slapped him. The fat man didn''t seem to care and only smiled at what the woman was doing. This seemed to have angered the woman even more who started to hit the Fat man with even more force, that was until a strong man, stopped the woman. The Black-Haired Young Man, in the meantime, tried to open the door, no matter what he did, the door just wouldn''t budge and gave up. After a few minutes, the woman seemed to have calmed down, the strong man then said, "We should introduce ourselves, we might be stuck here in a while after all, I''ll start, I''m 32, My name is Benjamin Poulos and I''m a worker in construction sites" Then everyone started introducing themselves The Blond-Haired Young Man is 17, his name is Joshua Manhat, he is a high school student, he also asked the others to call him Josh, he seemed to prefer being called this way. The Black-Haired Young Man is 16, his name is Chris Balk, he is a high school student. The Beautiful Woman is 26, she had beautiful black hair and black eyes, her name is Rachel Pars, she is the secretary of a fairly known CEO. The Fat Man is 29, he had glasses, was quite small, black hair and black hair, his name is Barry Baton, he is currently unemployed, from what he said, he was kicked out of where he worked because of Rachel. The Man with glasses is 36, was fairly average, had brown hair and brown eyes, his name is Kevin Viar, he is a doctor in a hospital. The last 2 were twins, one is called Mike and the one one is Mark, they are both 21 and are college students, the best way to recognize them is due to their hairs, Mike had Platinum-Blond Hair and Mark had Blue Hair and both had yellow eyes. After they all introduced themselves, the door opened. 3 Chapter 3 - Say What!? An Armored person entered the room and with a deep voice said, "Follow me... " Everyone stood up and followed him until they entered an immense room where a lot of people seemed to be kneeling in front of a throne where a handsome man with small horns sat. Within the people kneeling, there was a small place, the armored person told everyone to kneel in front of the ''King'' in this small place. While kneeling, Chris started inspecting everyone in the room, it seemed that every row depended on the color of the skin or due to a special characteristic? this was because, in the room where he previously was, there seemed to be only people with white skin. At their right seemed to be around 20 Asians and at their left were around 15 Black People. After they had all kneeled, the "king" clapped his hands and said, "I guess you are wondering where is the ''Goddess'', right?" At this question, some people silently nodded, the handsome man laughed at this, "Well for starter, there is no ''Goddess'' and I''m also against this person, using her words, I should be the ''Demon King'' but don''t worry, I should actually be the good guy, you see our world was alike yours before mutation happened and more humanoid races appeared but I won''t go in-depth. Basically, the ''Goddess'' is nothing more than a Human having reached an incredibly high-level, she single handly founded a Kingdom of human believing that every other race should be destroyed and I want your help to defend my kingdom. Well, for now just go find your tutor." After saying that, ''The King'' stood up and directly teleported out of the immense room after he disappeared, the pressure seemed to have quickly disappeared and everyone relaxed, 3 People then appeared, they seemed to be the tutor the ''King'' spoke of "Human With Slanted Eyes, May You Follow Me ." A Humanoid Lizard screamed, every of the Asians then stood up before following him. When Chris heard that, he thought, ''I guess I was right, they don''t seem to know the difference between people, they just look at physical characteristic''. "Human With Black Skin, Follow me !" A Humanoid Bull screamed across the room. "Human With White Skin, Stand up and follow" the last tutor who was a Humanoid Bird said. The Group of 10 then stood up and followed him in a large but smaller room. The Humanoid Bird then said, "My name is Ryk, I''m from the Semi-Beast Race like the other 2, I''ll allow one question per person, ask them now!" Rachel directly asked, "Can we go back!?" Ryk smiled then took out a box before handing bracelets to everyone in the room, "This Bracelet allows you to travel between the 2 Worlds, but be careful, Time flow differently here, but don''t worry, your physical body didn''t get transported too, we only transported your spirit but left a small part in your body so that it doesn''t become a mindless body. This bracelet has another use, the moment your HP reaches 0, it''ll destroy itself and automatically send you back to your world" Rachel after getting the bracelet directly used it but strangely, a hole seemed to have appeared in her body and her ring broke. "You probably wouldn''t have come back anyway so you don''t need it" Ryk said with an expressionless face. But she was the only one to do that, Josh, with an anxious expression asked, "Will you truly save my parents from the Enigma Disease? Ryk with a helpless expression shook his head then said "Sorry, that was probably what Vyridia promised but we can''t do much neither could she because she doesn''t care about anyone, she just wanted weapons" "Why did you use her image if she was your enemy?" Kevin asked, "You see, this was truly her asking you to help them but we succeeded in taking you from the Teleportation Channel she used, so technically, we just stole her ''weapons'' and we are going to use them against her. But just so you know, about 7.000 people got transported but we only got about 50 of them. Also, this is without counting the people that have been sent with someone else. But this is extremely risky because so that they don''t waste energy, they made it so that only people with the same spirit level or had a higher one as the invited one could be sent with them. And if they don''t pass . . . Their spirits get stuck in the Teleportation Channel and become fuel" Mike''s and Chris'' face paled when they heard that "Why did you choose us among the thousands of people?" Benjamin asked "Because you are the best within the invited" "How did you and Vyridia knew we were the best?" Mark asked "This is due to what you call the IQ test, through research, it was found out that the same test could be used to find out about the spirit level, due to having some spy sent in your world, we had successfully made everyone take an IQ test" "What does the Spirit Level represent?" Barry asked after thinking for a while "It allows us to know the strength of your personal skill, a spirit level of 100 means you have one and each increment of 100 makes you have a stronger personal skill" "How to know our Personal Skill?" Mike asked while looking extremely excited "Either it has already been awakened or we need to awaken it but that''ll be for after" "Why did you choose to teleport people from Earth and not from anywhere else?" Chris asked "That''s because you come from a World extremely close to ours, why would we waste energy to get people from far away world?" "Well, the last question has been asked, it''s now time for Personal Skill Awakening!" 4 Chapter 4 - Game Interface Ryk walked out of the room and after some minutes came back with 1 Humanoid Chicken, the Humanoid chicken started muttering something. After her muttering stopped, a strange white portal appeared, the humanoid chicken reached out with her feathered hand and took out multiple dishes. "Take one dish each!" Ryk said. We all hesitantly took one dish and started eating, after eating, Ryk thanked the Humanoid Chicken who left and then took out a Jewel and broke it in multiple pieces, he then gave a piece of jewel to everyone. The moment any of them had contact with the jewel, a strange thing happened, the jewel parts directly entered their hand and located themselves within their arms. The entire process was painless but every one of them were shocked and tried to remove the jewel the moment it began to enter their body. Mike screamed "Aaah! What th-" but he was quickly interrupted by Ryk. "This Jewel will allow your spirit to fully become part of this world and so access something akin to a Game interface, the reason you had to eat those dishes was that this process needed a lot of nutrients. To access the interface, focus on the jewel." Ryk calmly explained. After hearing Ryk, Chris directly tried focusing on the jewel. [Name : ??? Race : Human Class : None Level : 0 Max Health : 1000 Max Mana : 0 Strength : 9 Agility : 12 Constitution : 10 Intelligence : 0 Magic Power : 0 Skills : None Personal Skill : ???] Seeing the confused expression of everyone in the room, Ryk started explaining, "The reason why your name is ??? is due to the fact that your identity in the other world doesn''t matter anymore, as for the stats, Strength represents your physical strength, Agility represents the Speed and reflexes, Constitution represent the Defense, Stamina and Max Health, Intelligence represents the growth speed of your Skills and the Max mana, Magic Power represents the Strength of your skill. The Average Points of Strength, Agility, and Constitution is around 10 as for Intelligence and Magic power those are 0. Also, if your Personal Skill hasn''t been unlocked, the requirement should have been written and if it''s already unlocked, you''ll see the name, to see the effect just focus on it." "Uhh, just why is my Personal Skill just 3 Questions mark?" Chris asked, Ryk showed a shocked expression, "This would mean that you are the first holder of this Personal Skill. You are able to name it as you want and every next holders of this Personal Skill will see the name you chose but be careful, the name of a Personal Skill can also change it''s efficiency due to the compatibility %, if you choose a totally unrelated name, the efficiency will decrease or it might increase. A compatibility of 0 just means that the Personal Skill''s effect is unchanged." Chris after hearing this nodded and focused on the "???" to see the effect of this skill. [Your Spirit is the strongest and the biggest. Absorb the Spirits of the Dead Ascend And Become Stronger!] Chris thought for a while before choosing the name [Universe-Sized Spirit Eater], it reached a compatibility a 100% which meant that the strength of the skill was doubled Ryk waited for about 10 minutes before saying, "I think you guys already saw everything you needed to see. I''ll now need you guys to tell me the effects of your personal skill or the requirements to unlock it. Chris, you start" Chris was caught off-guard and directly screamed the effects of his skill "Uh Okay! It said: Your Spirit is the strongest and the biggest. Absorb the Spirits of the Dead Ascend And Become Stronger!" Ryk stayed silent for a while then pointed to Josh, the meaning was obvious. "My Personal Skill is called [Hormonal Rush], it seems that depending on the numbers of Hormone in my body, my power increase, but for the moment only Adrenaline increases my strength. I also have a 2nd Personal Skill which requires me to bathe in the blood of a Titan" What Josh said caused everyone to be Surprised, Ryk included, some also had Gaze of Envy. After the surprise ended, Ryk pointed at Mark, "To Unlock my Personal Skill, I need to eat at least 10 KG of Elastic Eagle" "Mine is to survive while being attacked by a shock of 500 Milliamps for around 10 Minutes" Mike said after being pointed at "My Strength must reach 50 or I must kill a beast 5 levels above me for my Personal skill to unlock" Benjamin Exclaimed "My Personal Skill has already been unlocked, It allows me to create a portal to a storage, it seems" Kevin calmly said "I need to kill 10 people" Barry said with an astounding calm but Ryk didn''t seem to appreciate the requirement of Barry and directly attacked him, the ring broke and a blue light surrounded the body of Barry. The body of Barry then started cracking before dissipating. Ryk just said, "Well, we should get back to awakening some personal skill, who want to start? Also, this is perfect, the number is now even... " The incredibly calm face of Ryk while he was saying that sent chills to Chris who put Ryk in the "Do Not Annoy" case . . . 5 Chapter 5 - ABSORB ! Ryk started writing something on papers and gave them out, one to Joshua, one to Mike, one to Mark and one to Kevin. He then asked Chris to follow him. After walking for some minutes, they entered what seemed to be a huge library, Ryk went to speak with the librarian and received an old and rusty book. He then handed it to Chris. "This is the book of someone who held a rather similar Personal Skill, you should learn it very quickly, it was quite hard getting... " Chris with a weird face took the book out of Ryk''s hand and thought, ''That''s what you call Hard? You just spoke to him and got the book'' He then opened the book just to see a lot of dust, after blowing the dust away, he started reading, After that, everything in the book was too old and was also unreadable. Chris started quickly memorizing the content of the book and handed it back to Ryk. "So you finally finished memorizing?" Ryk said, Chris just nodded, thought for a bit and asked with a hesitant expression, "Do uh-, Tutor Ryk, know where is the graveyard?" Ryk didn''t seem to care about what Chris said and just walked, Chris quickly followed then found himself in front of a graveyard filled with numerous ethereal people walking around. Chris was about to say something until Ryk said, "You can" "What?" "I said, ''You Can'', are you stupid? Just do it!" Chris quickly started going near a Spirit but quickly found a problem, ''how the hell do I absorb it!?'', Chris stretched out his hand but it just passed through the spirit, he then thought, ''Absorb''... Nothing happened, ''Maybe if I said it?'', "ABSORB!" Nothing happened except that Ryk lowered his esteem of Chris. Chris finally thought, ''Maybe I should just think of the Personal Skill?'', with his stretched hand, he thought [Universe-Sized Spirit Eater]. It finally worked, the Spirit didn''t seem to care and slowly dissipated. With a smile, Chris started going to absorb every spirit but he got nothing except that he had lost all of his energy. He then went back to the room on his own because Ryk just abandoned him while he was going on a Spirit Rampage, after getting back to the room, he saw everyone. They all seemed to have gotten their Personal Skill and started showing it off. After entering the room, Chris started admiring the Personal Skill of the others. Mark seemed to have an Elastic body, Mike had some thunder floating around him and he was also way faster than before, Joshua seemed to have grown bigger? As for Kevin and Benjamin, they just watched the others playing. "You guys all unlocked your Personal Skill!?" Chris Exclaimed "Yeah we all did, you were quite slow what were you doing. Also, look at how fast I''m going" Mike said looking as excited like he ever was. Ryk said with a cold face, "Calm Down! You are all going to say the effects of your Personal Skill" Benjamin started screaming the effects of his personal skill, "My Personal Skill is Called [Herculean Strength], Every point I put in Strength is equal to 2!" "My second Personal Skill, [Gigantification], allows me to increase the size of a specific part of my body or my whole body, as the size increase, the Constitution and Strength increase but the agility decrease. The maximum size I reach for now is 5 Meters." Joshua said "Mine is [Strongest Electric Body], the speed of my body increase and every one of my attacks now contains Electricity" Mike Quickly said "[Rubber Body] makes my Body extremely elastic but it''s now extremely vulnerable to sharp items and fire but it''s immune to Electricity and make me nearly immune Physical Attack." "Right! Now, I would need you all to make 2 teams I also need the teams to be even if in 3 minutes you aren''t done, I shall do the team myself." After Ryk said that, Chris quickly rushed to Joshua''s side and asked him if they wanted to team up but reluctantly accepted after thinking that he might''ve accidentally killed Chris if he didn''t have a strong enough spirit. The 2 of them then invited Benjamin to join them. Ryk seeing that the teams were done, exclaimed, "Right! Now I''ll give you 1 Hour to Plan for the Upcoming team fight! During that time, you''ll also need to Choose your weapons!" Joshua, Chris, and Benjamin directly started choosing their weapons, Chris took a sword, Benjamin with his [Herculean Strength] took an Axe and Joshua decided not to take any weapon due to his gigantification. As for the other 3, Mark took a bow, Mike took a dagger and Kevin took a spear. Joshua, Chris, and Benjamin quickly came into an agreement, Chris with his superior Agility would take care of Mike, Benjamin would take care of Mark and Joshua would take care of Kevin. 6 Chapter 6 - The Battle! After exactly 1 Hour, Ryk came back with what seemed to be a Human but it had some small horns like the ''King''. Chris thought that they were probably Demons? Out of the "Human''s" Mouth, a strange smoke started leaking out and surrounded the 6 of them. After opening his eyes, Chris found himself surrounded by trees, next to him were Joshua and Benjamin. "Where are we?" Benjamin asked, hoping that one of them had an answer, "Well ... a forest, I''d say it''s pretty easy to guess. But, it should be more of the illusion of a forest and not a real one." Joshua answered. Chris and Benjamin nodded at Joshua''s explanation. Joshua looked around before using his [Gigantification], to check the surrounding. After a few seconds, he grew back to his normal form. "What''d you find?" Benjamin quickly asked, seeing that Joshua grew back to his normal form "I think I found the other team, they are this way," Joshua said while pointing toward the north. Chris directly started walking and said to the other 2, "Come on guys, we must catch them by surprise, if they can find us, with Mark and his bow, we might be the one losing" After that, the 3 of them quickly rushed toward the north, until they saw a blue light, this could only mean one thing, Mike was approaching while relying on his electricity to get faster! Chris separated himself from the group and started hiding in a bush while Joshua and Benjamin started searching for Kevin and Mark. The moment Chris found that the light started getting closer, he readied his attacks and the moment he saw Mike, he suddenly jumped out of the Bush. Mike caught off-guard tried to dodge the attack but was still injured, the sword directly cut one of his arms, with his other arm, he directly tried to slash through Chris'' neck. Chris was unable to dodge the attack so he used his left arm to block it, he then staggered due to the effect of the electric attack but was still able to kick Mike who staggered. Although the lack of range of Mike''s dagger was a weakness, due to his superior Agility and his electric attacks, he was actually the one superior if they were in a normal fight but due to the loss of one of his arm and although he felt no pain, he felt that he had lost a lot of energy, he was totally unable to continue the battle. Chris directly slashed toward Mike and killed him but decided to sit down on the ground to rest. After 5 seconds, he heard a sound and saw an arrow arriving right beside him, he directly went into hiding and hoped that Benjamin and Joshua would be able to win. Joshua and Benjamin were currently hiding due to the danger of Mark and his bow, although he lacked accuracy, he was able to use his [Rubber Body] to give really strong propulsion to his arrow, if it were to touch one of their vital parts, Joshua and Benjamin would directly die. Benjamin and Joshua decided on a plan, they started going on a separate way, luckily for them, Mark started to aim for Benjamin knowing that Joshua couldn''t do much. But that was a big mistake, while Mark was taking an arrow from his quiver, Joshua directly used [Gigantification] and directly took the bow out of Mark''s hand. He then grabbed Mark, squished it incredibly hard and threw it on the ground, although he was nearly immune to physical attacks, being squished by a Giant Joshua still caused damage and pain, Benjamin took the opportunity to finish him off. Kevin who had no Fighting-Type Personal Skill seemed to be hopeless against Joshua and Benjamin but unexpectedly, he opened his [Dimensional Pocket] and took out a beast who looked like a lion but fiercer and with extremely sharp teeth. The lion directly rushed toward Benjamin, who tried to defend himself and Joshua directly tried to attack Kevin who took out another monster, this time it was a massive stone golem who directly blocked Joshua''s attack, Benjamin and Joshua were in a stalemate and seemed to be unable to defeat their opponent. Due to his enormous lack of agility, Benjamin was really quickly put in a difficult position, the Lion ferociously jumped and tried to bit at Benjamin who unconsciously put his arm in front of him to protect himself, while the lion started madly biting at his arm, Benjamin readied an attack but right before he could land it on the lion, a Spear pierced through his heart. ''Ah Fuck, I forgot about Kevin'', Benjamin lamented. As for Joshua, seeing that he couldn''t damage the Gigantic Stone Golem, he decided to stop his [Gigantification] and directly attack Kevin. After going back to his normal form, he rushed at Kevin, what he wanted to do is to Gigantify fast to crush Kevin but when he was about to reach Kevin, a strange thing happened, the shadow of Kevin started changing to one of a beast who jumped out and directly killed Joshua. That''s right, Kevin had 3 Monsters in his arsenal. Although Chris was still quite far from the battle, he was still able to feel the tremors of the Stone Golem Walking. Unable to hold back his curiosity, he slowly walked toward the tremors and finally saw the Massive Stone Golem, he then saw a panther and finally Kevin. He slowly approached them but the Panther seemed to have already detected him and rushed toward him, the moment the Panther was close enough, Chris directly pierced through him using his sword, before dying, the Panther released a shriek which caused Kevin and the Golem to be sure of his position. 7 Chapter 7 - The Winner Is? When they heard the shriek, the Golem started attacking the bush where Chris was hid as for Kevin, he started readying his spear. Due to how slow the Golem was, Chris was able to easily dodge his attack and directly attacked the fist of the Golem, although his sword successfully damaged the Golem, the sword was stuck in it. Chris would be harmless if he were to lose his sword so he tried everything to unstuck it. When the fist of the Golem started raising, Chris held tightly on the sword''s handle and started being raised too. The Golem soon noticed Chris on the sword handle and tried to throw it away, Chris continued holding tightly and finally the Golem started getting annoyed and tried to crush Chris and rammed his hand through whatever he could find. Due to how cracked the Golem''s body was, climbing it was possible so while the Golem was trying to crush Chris. Chris was climbing on his body and soon reached the Golem''s Head While the Golem kept trying to catch the parasite climbing on his body. Chris prepared for his free fall. What he wanted to do was successfully landing on Kevin, stun him, take his spear, pierce him and WIN. The hardest part would probably successfully jumping. 3... 2... 1 JUMP. Although Chris successfully jumped and was about to land on Kevin, Kevin just pointed his spear toward the falling Chris. There were only a few centimeters between the Spearhead and Chris but before Chris got hit by the Spearhead, he used his leg to kick it away, Kevin quickly stabilized and although he successfully hit Chris, it had only hit his shoulder and didn''t kill him. Bloodied, Chris fell to the ground, Kevin prepared his attack but Chris successfully dodged it by rolling around, he then quickly got up and ran away. Kevin then started chasing him around, Chris using his superior agility was able to quickly made Kevin lose sight of him. Although he successfully ran away, Chris couldn''t stop due to the patch of blood he was leaving on the ground, the only thing he could do now was climbing on a tree and hopping between trees. After many unsuccessful tries, he finally found the hang of it, and would now be able to hop between trees with a chance of at least 80%. While hopping between trees, he found another patch of blood, what he immediately thought of was ''Mike'', and he was right, very close was an arm, and after searching for a while, he found a dagger. This was the only thing he could use to win, Kevin had probably thought of this and already took the other weapons. After taking the dagger, Chris went back to hiding in the trees, he then started resting, he unexpectedly ended up sleeping, when he woke up, it was night, a perfect time for someone to silently die. After searching around, he finally found a tall Golem, it seemed to be looking around, when Chris got close enough, he finally saw Kevin resting near a tree with a spear, a bow, arrows, and an axe. While Chris was slowly walking toward Kevin, he noticed that the Golem''s gaze was toward him, Chris took a step back and saw that the Golem stopped gazing at him, after taking a step forward, the Golem started gazing at him again. Chris started taking steps backward and prepared himself, in his mind, he counted to 3, 1... 2... 3 Go! Chris ran toward Kevin''s position and although he was able to successfully slit Kevin''s throat, he was still punched by the Golem in the end. The strength of the punch knocked him unconscious. He woke up, surrounded by Joshua, Kevin, Benjamin, Mike, Mark, and Ryk. The moment he had woken up, Ryk directly put something in his mouth, "Swallow!", Ryk yelled. Without question, Chris directly swallowed the thing Ryk put in his mouth. After having swallowed, Chris asked, "What was that thing?", Before Ryk could say anything, Kevin explained, "This was a painkiller, although in the illusion we couldn''t feel pain, after going back in the real world, we would feel the pain" Ryk glared at Kevin and Chris nodded after hearing the explanation but still had some doubts, "How come in the Illusion I only thought of killing and had no problem whatsoever with it?" This time, it was Ryk that explained, "In the Smoke, there was a drug that made your Bloodlust increase, that''s why you were all fine with killing each other" "Bu-" Before Chris could ask any more questions, Ryk glared at him and Chris immediately shut up. Ryk Clapped and took out 3 Gems, "Well, I guess the winner is the Team led by Joshua, as a reward, you can take 1 each" Each of these gems had a different color, one was green, one was red and one was brown. Chris directly said, "I call dibs on Red!", Joshua visibly annoyed said, "Fine... I''ll take the green one..." Benjamin looked extremely pleased and said, "Great, I''ll take the brown one!" After taking a gem each, they were then confused, "Uh... What do we do with that now?" Chris wondered "Maybe we''ll need to eat it?" Benjamin said Joshua just shook his head and said to Ryk, "Tutor Ryk, what do we do with those gems?" "Just crush it..." Chris, Benjamin, and Joshua all crushed their Gems and clouds of dust immediately appeared, the Specks of dust reached all of their respective Jewel. A new line appeared to every of their Interface. [Name : ??? Race : Human Class : None Level : 0 Max Health : 1000 Max Mana : 50 Strength : 9 Agility : 12 Constitution : 10 Intelligence : 1 Magic Power : 1 Skills : None Personal Skill : Universe-Sized Spirit Eater Lv.0 (5%) Elements : Fire [Awakened] (Perfect-Grade Compatibility) Lv. 0] After seeing the Specks of dust entering the Jewels, Ryk said, "Those Gems are called [Elemental Awakening Gems], only after awakening an Element can you use those elements, every time you awaken an Element, your Intelligence and Magic Power increases by 1. Also, the Compatibility displayed in the interface has 5 different values : -Perfect Grade -Top Grade -High Grade -Middle Grade -Low Grade The Compatibility increase the leveling speed and power of the skills of those elements." Ryk then called 2 people, those 2 people then went to a rather big building while the other 6 were following them. One of the people gave a key to Joshua, Chris, and Benjamin, the other gave a key to Mike, Mark, and Kevin. On each of those keys, was a number written on it, they then tried searching for their rooms, while Joshua''s, Chris''s and Benjamin''s rooms were on the 2nd floor, the rooms of Mike, Mark, and Kevin were on the first floor. Not only did the floor differ, the luxury between the 2 floors was also different, the rooms of Joshua, Chris, and Benjamin were very luxurious to the level of a 5-Star Hotel on Earth, as for Mike''s, Mark''s and Kevin''s room, their rooms were still luxurious but very low compared to the other''s. On each Room was a Board, on this board seemed to be a schedule. 8 Chapter 8 - Wailing Little Girl Every day, they needed to wake up at 8 and go to room "A001", for "General Knowledge Teaching", this would only last for an hour, as for what to do after, it was mostly Training, Fighting, on some boards, was a special hour "Magic Learning". At the bottom of the schedule, there was a Group name written. The Group Chris was in was called "Group Vanhir". Before Chris went to sleep, he heard a knocking, after opening the door, he saw Mike, Mark, Joshua, Kevin, and Benjamin waiting. "Uh... Why are you guys here?" Chris asked, "We decided to come here for a chat, you know with what happened today, there must be some things we need to say" Mike quickly explained. After Mike said that, he quickly entered Chris''s room, following that, everyone entered Chris''s room before he could even protest. "Your rooms are so good compared to ours, that ain''t fair!" Mike complained. "Stop saying useless stuff" Mark said with an annoyed voice After everyone sat, Kevin started speaking, "You must probably be wondering where did the monster come from" "Well no, actually, we already guessed that your Personal Skill had the ability to store living things inside it." Joshua said, this caused Chris and Benjamin to nod, showing that they also understood that. "Most importantly, what''s your group name? I''m in Group Amad" Mark asked. "I''m in Group Vahnir" Chris said. "+1!" Mike exclaimed. "I''m also in Group Vahnir" Kevin calmly said. "Me too" Joshua said. "I''m in Group Sald" Benjamin complained. "So uh... What''s your Compatibility to the element? I got perfect-grade compatibility with Fire" Chris asked. "I only got Middle-Grade compatibility with the Wood Element" Joshua shook his head. "I got Perfect-Grade Compatibility with Earth Element!" Benjamin excitedly said. Mike looked to be extremely envious of the 3 of them, as for Mark, he seemed to be only disappointed, only Kevin didn''t seem to care about that. "Anyway, what''s the General Knowledge Teaching thing?" Benjamin wondered. "I think they''ll just teach us about the geography of this world, the races, a bit of history and all that" Chris said. "Urgh... It''s just like School then, Shit..." Mike complained with an exaggerated expression. "Why did you guys stay in this world?" Chris asked. Immediately, the mood changed. "I hope that I could learn something that could Heal my parents from Enigma" Joshua said with a sad expression. Following that, a blank of some minutes, Chris asked with a shocked expression, "Wait... You''re all staying here because one of your relatives got Enigma?" They all nodded, Chris showed an empathic expression. "I think we should go now." Benjamin said. Everyone nodded before leaving Chris''s room. Even after they had left, Chris just stayed on the ground and wondered ''Why do I stay here? I could just leave this place...'', after thinking of that, Chris looked at the bracelet on his wrist and tried using it. Very soon, Blue Light surrounded his body and he was sent back to Earth. When he woke up, he found himself in his room, he then remembered something, Ryk said that the flow of time was different between both worlds so he quickly went up to look at the calendar when he first got transported, it was November 13th, but now, it was July 20, after using his computer, it seemed that about 250 days passed, but he only passed 12 hours in the other world, it meant that 1 Day in the Other World Was Equal To 500 Days on Earth. After checking his body, it seemed that the Jewel was still embedded in his arm. And he could still see his Interface. But the first thing he did was to try and go back to the other world to tell Joshua, Mike, Mark, Kevin and, Benjamin. Or else they would be stuck in the false hope of finding a way to heal their relatives while they were probably already dead. But Nothing Happened, The normally Bright Bracelet was totally colorless, it seemed that there was no energy to supply it so he could only wait. Due to the fact that he still had the jewel, he might also be able to use his Personal Skill, so he decided to search around to see if he could also find spirits possessing Personal Skill. While walking around the streets, he heard screams and a lot of fire trucks going to somewhere. Although he was uninterested in knowing what happened, his intuition told him to follow the fire trucks. After running for 5 minutes, he finally saw an immense building that was burning. While looking at the raging fire, Chris felt something strange, he only stared intensely at the fire. It was as if the Fire was calling him, "You! What are you doing don''t get close!" Someone tried to stop him but Chris heard nothing. He started walking toward the Fire but nothing could stop him, finally, he reached out his hand to the flames. The Flames didn''t hurt, it only felt warm, he instinctively said, "Absorb...", only a small part of the flame started disappearing, and on his interface, something changed. [Fire [Awakened] (Perfect-Grade Compatibility) Lv. 0 (0.01%)] (0.01%) appeared next to the Level of his Fire Element. Without being able to control his body, Chris entered the building, while he was walking around, he heard someone wailing, Chris continued Absorbing the Flames while walking toward the wailings. Finally, after entering a room, he found a little girl surrounded by flames, the flames didn''t seem to harm her and her body was ethereal, Chris could only think of one thing ''Spirit possessing Personal Skill!'' Only after absorbing all of the flames around the Girl did she notices Chris. She immediately stopped crying and seemed to fear him, Chris slowly walked toward her and calmly said, "Why are you crying?" With hesitance, the little girl replied, "Because I''m a monster, wherever I go, People die and if you stay here, you''ll also die" After saying that, the little girl went back to crying, Chris started thinking about what to do, after some seconds, he had finally found, "You''re not a monster, and I won''t die, look, fire can''t hurt me" While saying that, he took a flame and directly absorbed it. The Little girl only stared with widened eyes and said, "Is that true? I''m not a monster right?" Chris stayed silent and only nodded, the little girl went back to crying but it seemed that it was now tears of joy. A bright light then started surrounding the Little girl who started floating in the air, Chris just watched, after the little girl disappeared, a miniature figure of her stayed behind, Chris unconsciously picked it up and Absorbed it. A new line appeared in his Interface. [Name : ??? Race : Human Class : None Level : 0 Max Health : 1000 Max Mana : 50 Strength : 9 Agility : 12 Constitution : 10 Intelligence : 1 Magic Power : 1 Skills : None Personal Skill : Universe-Sized Spirit Eater Lv.0 (10%) Raging Fire Lv. 0 (0%) Elements : Fire [Awakened] (Perfect-Grade Compatibility) Lv. 0 (7%)] [Raging Fire (Active Skill): Unleash an Incredibly Strong Wave of Fire, anyone touched by it will suffer high damage and will feel an intense pain] 9 Chapter 9 - Better Run! Only when Chris finish reading [Raging Fire]''s description did he realize that the fire disappeared and before someone could see him, he jumped through the window and started frantically running. After running for a while, he decided to go back to his house, after opening the door, the first thing he did was taking a lighter. Using the lighter, he tried to absorb it but the only thing that happened was him getting burned. ''Ah fuck!'' Chris screamed inwardly, ''How come I could absorb the Fire in the building but not the one from the Lighter?'' Pondering for a while, he finally thought of something, ''The Fire seemed to have disappeared after I absorbed the small figurine of the girl and the Personal Skill of the Girl was Fire-Related, maybe it was some kind of Spiritual Fire? But how come this Fire interacted if it came from a Spirit?''. Considering it was night, Chris decided to ponder about it tomorrow and directly went to sleep. During the night, multiple memories started flooding Chris''s mind, those were the memories of the 250 days. In those 250 days, 2 Of Chris''s friends mysteriously disappeared, in fact, a lot of people mysteriously disappeared on the 13th of November. Following those mysterious disappearance, strange things started appearing, people started pretending to own Special Power, strange animals also started appearing such as a 1-Meter mouse, an Eagle that could breathe fire... Anyone claiming to have seen any strange occurrences also seemed to have disappeared, this caused a rather big conspiracy theory to appear. Although Chris had no idea what caused those strange phenomenons to appear, he had a vague idea that they might be related to the Other World. Waking up, Chris heard knocking at the door, after opening it, he saw 2 people dressed in black suit and wearing sunglasses, the first thought of Chris was ''Seriously, wearing Sunglasses indoors?''. Staying expressionless, one of the 2 started speaking, "Chris Balk, please follow us" "And If I don''t want to?" "I believe you will..." This was an obvious threat but it seemed that they had the capacity to make him follow them so without making any story, Chris just followed them. Leaving the building, they entered a black car, inside it, he sat on the back seat and his eyes were covered. It took about 45 mins, for them to reach their destination after reaching it, Chris''s eyes were uncovered. Chris could then see the spacious place he was in, after taking a quick look, it seemed that this was underground. But before he could admire the place, he was dragged to a room. He was then left alone for a while until he heard a voice, "Chris Balk, please state your power" "I can use a fire attack" that was the answer Chris thought of after pondering for a while. "Chris Balk, please show your power" Chris then used his [Raging Fire] and unleashed a massive fire attack. The incredible power of the attack seemed to have destroyed part of the room. "Analysis Finished. Chris Balk, Power: S-Rank" The door to the destroyed room then opened and revealed a rough-looking man, he seemed to be quite angry while looking at the damaged room, "Kid, Did you know how much that cost us ?" "Well, a lot, I guess you''re rich enough to repair it then?" Chris blinked innocently The man remained silent then dragged Chris to another room. In this room were around 15 people were waiting, they were probably kidnapped too I guess. After Chris was dragged into the room, the rough-looking man went up on the podium and started talking, "I guess you want to know why you are here?", everyone nodded. "Well, as you know, a lot of strange phenomenon started appearing and you''d be the one investigating them, you''ll know all be part of the "Governmental Investigation Squad Against Supernatural Phenomenon" or the G.I.S.A.S.P" Although everyone looked tense in the room, Chris started laughing due to the ridiculous name. "Oh look, someone like to laugh? Well, to punish you, for your first 3 missions, you''ll be alone!" Although Chris found that a bit annoying, he still thought that it would be useful because if he were to get another Personal Skill, using [Universe-Sized Spirit Eater], he''d be able to hide one of his trump cards whilst not needing to restrain himself. After a lot of blabbering about the goal of the G.I.S.A.S.P, the Rough-looking man finally started talking about the "interesting stuff", everyone followed him to another room where 3 instructors waited for them. The instructors started calling people one by one. In the end, only Chris wasn''t called, the rough-looking man grinned, "I''ll be your Instructor..." ''Ah Shit'' Chris thought. Chris then followed him to another room, where he was briefed about what they were going to do next, "This is an introductory mission so it''s going to be rather easy, we''d be dealing with an F-Rank Big Mouse, it''s way bigger than a regular mouse, it''s fur is able to defend against Attacks but can still be easily pierced through using a sword. Their strongest points are their Destructive Power and their agility." What Chris cared the most was, ''How come the Government already adapted that fast to the Supernatural Phenomenon?'', that was until he remembered something Ryk had said... 10 Chapter 10 - What He Said What Chris remembered was that Ryk said that the IQ tests everyone was forced to take was used to get to know our spirit level, the only way they could get the results and force everyone around the world to do the test was by having planted their people into every government... Another thought scared Chris even more, it was that the whole government was controlled by them. Chris quickly came back to his senses and stepped on a strange device, this device directly teleported him and the rough-looking man to what seemed to be a sewer. The stench smell made Chris instinctively cover his nose "Wait, I don''t get to have any weapon?" Chris directly exclaimed "Your power doesn''t seem to be good for melee attacks so why would you need that?" "A Bow isn''t used for melee attacks..." "I don''t have a bow so you''re just going to stay weaponless!" Looking rather annoyed, Chris thought, ''Oh come on, I got the worst instructor'' he then slowly followed the rough-looking man who while watching his device started walking. After walking around for some minutes, the device suddenly started beeping and the rough-looking man looked annoyed, "Ah Shit, I forgot to remove the Alarm, you better get ready, a lot of Big Mouse will probably get alerted" ''He''s totally the worst instructor I could''ve gotten'' Chris thought exasperatedly. *Squeak Squeak* A Big Mouse suddenly appeared from the obscurity. When the Mouse saw Chris and the rough-looking man, he seemed to be drooling and started squeaking to show his joy. *Squeak Squeak Squeak...* While the Big Mouse continued squeaking, the rough-looking man just had to slowly walk toward it and directly behead him. Although he had already lost his head, the head of the Big Mouse could still move for a while and directly released a long squeak. "Also... I forgot to mention but the Big Mouse lives in group and this was only a scout so it was rather stupid but its squeak will attract a lot of Big Mouse" The rough-looking man then used his weapon to break one of the Big Mouse''s tooth and threw it to Chris. "Didn''t you want a weapon? Take this, it''s pretty sharp" Although Chris was unwilling to use this tooth as weapon, he still took it because he didn''t want to be too reliant on [Raging Fire]. Without enough time to prepare himself, waves of Big Mouse started appearing. Most of them seemed to be going for the rough-looking man. Only what seemed to be the weakest Big Mouse went to attack Chris. This was a perfect setting for Chris considering he wanted to fight and not be a Punching Bag. While a Big Mouse while slowly approaching Chris. The Rough-Looking man was already killing dozens of them. The moment the Big Mouse was close enough, Chris directly jumped and attacked toward the Big Mouse''s skull. But it seemed that he had over-estimated the range of his weapon because before he could reach the Big Mouse, it had already jumped and tackled Chris. Although Chris wasn''t hurt, he staggered but still successfully hurt the Big Mouse, blood started flowing from its wound, Chris learned from his mistake and directly thrust his weapon toward the Big Mouse. This time, the attack successfully hit the Big Mouse who was deeply wounded and soon died due to the loss of blood. [You''ve Killed a Monster. You received 2 (-80% Due To Different World) EXP.] ''Huh... That Also Works!?'' Chris honestly didn''t expect much from killing the Big Mouse so even though he had received only 20% of the EXP he was supposed to normally receive, it was still good. Without having the time to express his joy, another Big Mouse suddenly jumped at him, this time he only had to thrust his weapon toward the Neck of the Falling Mouse who quickly died. [You''ve Killed a Monster. You received 2 (-80% Due To Different World) EXP.] Chris continued his rampage and killed every of the Big Mouse coming to attack him. Well... Rampage shouldn''t be a good way to say it considering that Chris only killed 10 in total. While fighting the Big Mouse, Chris received many injuries and was completely exhausted but he was smiling. [You Received 1 Point In Constitution] It seemed that one could also get Stats point through efforts. This time, Chris didn''t know if it was because of all the damage he took or it was due to the fact that he exhausted all of his stamina until reaching the limit. Although Chris was overjoyed, after taking a small look toward the rough-looking man''s direction, he was completely stunned seeing the hundreds of corpses, the rough-looking man didn''t even seem to be exhausted, while sitting on a corpse, he just lit a cigarette. "Huh... Kid, you''re finally finished?" The Rough-Looking man smiled. Chris only nodded but didn''t say anything. "Rest for a bit because after I finished this cigarette we will go in the nest to kill the King." The rough-looking man said. 3 Minutes later. The Cigarette was finished, the rough-looking man stood up and exclaimed, "Well then! It''s time to kill some King!" 11 Chapter 11 - KingSlayer and QueenSlayer The Rough-looking man quickly rushed into the nest while Chris unwillingly followed him. Inside the Nest, the only thing that could be seen were some holes, Chris quickly guessed that each hole represented one house. When entering, Chris had expected to see a lot of Big Mouses rushing to kill the 2 of them but it was empty. The Rough-looking man explained, "The Big Mouse that went to attack us were the Adult Male, the Adult Female and, the children nearly always stay in their cave. We must slaughter all of them so don''t chicken out" After saying that, he directly entered one of the countless caves and only took some seconds before coming back. "What are you waiting for, start entering the caves and kill them!" He looked rather annoyed after seeing Chris staying there with his mouth agape. "No!" Although Chris had killed some Big Mouse before, those were trying to kill him but now, those were in their home and they didn''t even try anything on him, why would he have to kill them!? The Rough-looking man looked extremely angry due to Chris''s refusal and directly punched him. "Even if you don''t want to, they''ll still die!" He yelled Chris didn''t answer, he could feel that when the rough-looking man punched him, he aimed for the kill even though he seemed to have given up after seeing that his attack didn''t kill Chris, he still tried to kill Chris! Chris slowly took his distance, ''Fucking coward'', the rough-looking man thought, he then went back. Chris, after exiting the Nest, went to test his [Raging Fire], his goal was to master it... Or at least just understand how to use it before using it on the rough-looking man. After about an hour of trying, Chris now knew 4 things, 1 - How to visualize the remaining amount of Mana he had! 2 - His Mana regenerated at a speed of 0.1 every 30 seconds! 3 - [Raging Fire] had no fixed amount of Mana but depending on the amount used, [Raging Fire] would grow stronger or weaker! 4 - [Raging Fire] had no cooldown but if he were to use it in succession, it would get weaker! Chris took a look at his Mana before resting, he wanted to have all of his mana to unleash a big attack. Time passed by and he finally had 50 mana. He rushed inside the Nest and found the rough-looking man starting to go inside the Largest Cave. Chris slowly followed him, he then saw the rough-looking man fighting against a Big Mouse even bigger than the other one, it seemed that this was the king, although the rough-looking man had the upper hand, he still receive some injuries. Right before the rough-looking man could finish the Big Mouse, another one jumped in and attacked the rough-looking man. Although he received a rather large wound, it wasn''t deep enough to truly affect him so he first started by trying to finish off the first Big Mouse but it was useless, it seemed that the second one was even more ferocious than the first one. After seeing that he started losing, the rough-looking man took out a bracelet and directly broke it, it seemed that after doing that, he became stronger and faster, this caused him to be able to easily beat the 2 Big Mouse Before he could finish them, Chris quickly used [Raging Fire], although he had no enmity with the 2 Big Mouse, he would 2 birds with one stone if he could kill the 2 Big Mouse and the Rough-Looking Man. Although he had no enmity with the 2 Big Mouse, they may treat him as an enemy if he were to just kill the Rough-looking man and it seemed that their injuries would kill them anyway. Chris quickly channeled his attack and used [Raging Fire]! An Immense Wave of Fire appeared, the 2 Big Mouse squeaked extremely loudly before stopping, as for the rough-looking man, he seemed to have expected that and took out a crystal, after using it, a blue light surrounded him and he disappeared. [You''ve Killed 1 Monster King and 1 Monster Queen. You received 400 (-80% Due to Different World) EXP.] [You''ve leveled up. You received, Stat Gem Slot: +4] [Due to Having Killed 1 King Monster. You received, Title: "KingSlayer"] [Due to Having Killed 1 Queen Monster. You received, Title: "QueenSlayer"] Although Chris was annoyed due to not being able to kill the rough-looking man, he was still happy looking at the notifications. Chris already played games so he knew what a Title was but he still wanted to know how it worked with this interface. So he quickly focused on it to know the details. [Title: A Title confer power to the one that holds it, One can only have one title equipped at the time, the non-equipped title will have their effectiveness reduced by 50%. Changing a Title takes 1 minute.] Chris was even happier, normally in the game he played, a title would only show its effect when it was being equipped but now it could show its effect at any time although it would have diminished effect. He then focused his mind to look at the effect of his new title. [KingSlayer: You deal +1% damage against Kings] [QueenSlayer: You deal +1% damage against Queens] Although those effects were quite small, it seemed that they could grow stronger after seeing the "Lv. 0" next to their name. As for the Stat Gem Slot thing, Chris didn''t know what it could be used for, after focusing on it, nothing came out, he then tried to add point to Strength but there was no effect so he just decided to wait until he could come back to the other world. 12 Chapter 12 - Evan While Chris was waiting for his Mana to regenerate, he suddenly felt a vibration in his pant, it was his phone. He would always keep it on him no matter what so he directly knew what was that vibration. After checking his phone, the first thing he saw on the whole screen was. [WANTED!!! CHRIS BALK!!! ATTACKED AN AGENT OF THE GOVERNMENT SPECIAL POWER IS GRADED AT S-RANK CURRENT POWER IS E-RANK LAST SEEN: BIG MOUSE NEST AT XXXXX LIVES AT: 40 ROAD XXXX XXXX REWARD: 4 MAGIC POWER GEM (ALIVE) 2 MAGIC POWER GEM (DEAD)] With that message, there was also a picture of him shown. The moment he received that, he immediately stood up and left the Nest. He couldn''t stay here, he had to leave the Sewer, the city, even the country. In the following 20 minutes, Chris was trying to find the exit of the Sewer but it was way too hard to find it, it was like a Maze! Very soon, he found the exit of the sewer but it was being guarded, Chris recognized them, they were the one in the room of the G.I.S.A.S.P, it seemed that their instructors weren''t here. Chris quickly rushed toward them and unleashed his [Raging Fire] by consuming 5 Mana, what he wanted was just to make them unable to pursue him, he didn''t want to kill them. The moment they were attacked by the [Raging Fire], due to the immense pain of the attack, they all screamed and some even fainted, Chris was completely unable to stop the attack due to his lack of control so he could only hope that they would be able to survive. Chris wasn''t damaged while going through the [Raging Fire], this attack was totally unable to affect the caster. But while passing through, it seemed that one of the people guarding was still able to react and directly sent out a punch but due to being under the attack of the [Raging Fire], the person was unable to even reach Chris. After leaving the sewer, he used another [Raging Fire], this was in the hope to hold off the instructors if they came back too fast. Chris wasn''t sure if everyone in the whole world received the Wanted message but he didn''t want to get captured because he wasn''t cautious enough. He reluctantly took out his phone and called someone, his brother, Evan. The 2 of them were orphan and brother who was already adult when their parents mysteriously died, received custody of him. "It seems that you are doing well, little bro" Evan sarcastically said "You already know why I''m calling you" "I do know but why would I do that? You completely cut me off of your life" "If you can help me then I''ll do what you guys want!" "Don''t worry, we had already prepared that, we knew that you''d come back." After hearing the confirmation, Chris hung up. He then directly thought of what had happened some days before he went to the other world. For 10 days, countless people died, those were called the "Days of Massacre", his brother laughed it off and told him not to care about it. In the first place, they didn''t have much money but some days before the "Days of Massacre", his brother received about 5 Million Euros, although Chris was already suspicious but because he had grown up with only his brother, he only thought of that as a coincidence. One day, after going back home, he finally found a definite proof of his Brother being one of the people having caused the "Days of Massacre". And when he confronted Evan about it, he didn''t seem to care and only said, "Yes, I killed them" He then called someone, the person came and asked Chris, "I already heard about your life from your brother, I can help you find out the truth about the death of your parent but first you must follow us" "No! I don''t want to partake in those killings!" Chris yelled before running away. After that, he only relied on some of his savings to live, he also did some part-time job. Chris didn''t regret his choice, although he always wanted to know the truth about his parents'' death, he didn''t want to kill others just to know that. But this time, he didn''t feel like thinking about others, although he wanted to kill the least amount of people possible, if it was a matter of life and death, this thinking was useless. While thinking of that, A helicopter was rapidly approaching his position after it reached his position, Chris only had to look at the logo to be sure of who it was, a White and Black Viper, sure enough, it was them. Chris climbed on the Helicopter and saw a handsome looking man who looked to be around 30, Evan! "You already know what you''re going to do now right?" Evan directly said, "I''m going to learn the [Viper]''s skill then start killing others for money?" "Correct, you want to claim your prize now?" Evan handed a book to Chris 13 Chapter 13 - Bulle [Art of Viper]. That was the name of the book. This was where was written the most basic Skill of the [Viper], although they were called "basic skills", they were already ranked within the top out of all the assassination art on Earth. Owning this book showed being part of the [Viper]. Chris quickly opened the book and started reading while the helicopter started quickly flying away from Chris''s previous position. While they were approaching the secret base of the [Viper], Chris was reading the skills at an insane speed. In the [Art of Viper], there were only 3 skills, one used for camouflage, one for escape and one for attack. They were respectively called, [Crouching Viper], [Banished Viper], [Viper''s Laceration]. Although Chris had already understood the most important points of those skills, he was still unable to even bring out 10% of their might and after having skimmed through the entire book, they had already reached the secret base. At this location, it was totally empty except for the portrait of someone. While the group of people from [Viper] were slowly approaching this place, the one in the lead took out a key. He directly came in front of the portrait and said, "I hate R-Sies" *Click* The portrait suddenly started changing and a keyhole appeared. After inserting the key, stairs appeared, the group then went down the stairs. They then entered a really small passage where the only light source came from the torches at the side of the passage. The one in the lead suddenly stopped and asked one of the people by his side, "George, give me the spray" the person said "There it is, Fabrice" George took out the spray. The person named Fabrice then started using the spray and revealed multiple red beam. "Be careful not to touch any of those lasers, it''s extremely powerful" Fabrice reminded the groups. He then started to go through the passage without touching the lasers with incredible agility. Soon, everyone passed through the passage except for Evan and Chris, before Evan went, he gave something to Chris. "Take this, you can use it to go through the lasers" Evan said as he handed some sort of boots to Chris. After Evan successfully went through the passage, only Chris remained, he put on the boots and as if he was possessed, he also went through the passage with the same agility as Evan. The group, seeing that Chris who was the last one, finished the passage, started continuing through the dimly-lit passage. After walking for a while, they found a gate, Fabrice only took out a badge and scanned it, the group then went through the gate and finally reached a room filled with pedestals. Fabrice and the groups then went on the same pedestal, they were then teleported and found themselves in an enormous room. After leaving the room, Chris was amazed to find out that the [Viper]''s secret base seemed to be a simple village and not a heavily fortified fortress. Evan and Chris left the group of people and started heading toward a house, there, Evan started teaching Chris about the 3 basic skills of the [Art of Viper]. Very quickly, Chris learned the 3 basic skills and could now use them without problem. As he had joined the [Viper], he now had to take the compulsory Assassination Mission, Chris decided to take it now so that he could test his skills. Using the [Viper]''s helicopter, he was quickly able to reach the Target''s location. The target was a fat middle-aged man called John Sam, one of the richest person on the planet, if Chris were to successfully kill him, he would get about 10 Million Euros. Although compared to the wealth of John, 10 Million was nothing, it was still enough for Chris who only wanted to be protected by the [Viper]. The main problem in this mission was: "How to reach John Sam?" Luckily, [Viper] already got everything covered, Chris had a direct appointment with John, he also got a new ID and a mask that would change his face. After finding out how to reach John, what Chris cared about was the fact that John would probably be extremely guarded so he had to find an opportunity to quickly kill John while being able to run away the moment John died. As for that, Chris used the most important thing of the [Viper], Poison. Chris entered the [Jo\u0026Co Building], owned by John Sam, after confirming his appointment, he used the elevator and reached the last floor. "Nice to meet you, Christopher Anm" John reached out his hand. "Nice to meet you, John Sam" Chris shook John''s hand. Chris smiled because the moment John shook his hand, he was already dead, the reason for that was because, in his palm, he had put a really small needle with poison coated in it. The needle was small enough to pierce a hole so small that one wouldn''t even feel it. Chris didn''t seem to care about what was going to happen during the appointment as he already knew that his mission was accomplished. John who had already started showing signs of being affected suddenly became healthy again after drinking water. Only then did Chris finally found out that he was discovered. He quickly rushed toward John and cut his throat, although he was already discovered by John, John had no way to defend considering his lack of Agility and the fact that he was surprised that an assassin would directly rush toward him. After John died, the elevator sound was heard, the bodyguards were arriving. Chris used the [Raging Fire] inside the elevator which gate had already started opening and caused everyone inside to die miserably. As Chris was using his communicator to call the [Viper]''s helicopter. A Body started slowly approaching him and directly shot at him using his gun. Although the bodyguard had successfully survived, he was still in pain so his shot was inaccurate but still hit Chris. Chris groaned and directly used [Raging Fire] and started rushing toward the bodyguard, about 5 meters from the bodyguard, he threw his weapon. The bodyguard died and Chris started to feel the pain from the Bullet''s wound. 14 Chapter 14 - Shitty Assassination While Chris was feeling the pain from the wound, the [Viper]''s helicopter could already be seen through the windows, Chris slowly walked toward it and jumped on it. "That was some really shitty assassination." Evan shook his head, "We shouldn''t have made you start doing assassination mission, I''ll have to personally tutor you." Although Chris wanted to curse at his brother, he was unable to do that due to the pain and only let out a groan. "You can''t even handle that pain, that''s truly disappointing" as he said that, Evan took out a syringe and directly used it on Chris. Chris directly lost consciousness. When he woke up, he found himself tied to a chair within a room with only a board, a chair, and a desk. After some minutes, the door of the room opened and Evan entered the room. The moment he saw Evan, Chris wanted to complain before discovering that he seemed to be incapable of speaking. "Give up, I already used a Poison that would render you mute, just stay here and remember what I''m going to teach you, I''ll give you the antidote after I finish to teach you everything" Chris was rather unwilling but he felt like being mute wasn''t the worst thing he would receive if he wasn''t willing to do what Evan wanted. He nodded, Evan clapped his hand and started teaching. Very soon, Chris was able to feel the effects of Evan''s teaching, a new Skill had appeared in his interface, [Art of Viper (Basic)], as Evan spoke, EXP started being added to the skill. When Evan finished his teaching, the skill had already reached 30% of the required EXP to level up! "I finished for today, take this key and this is all your stuff, go find your room by yourself" Evan untied Chris from the chair, gave him a set of keys and a backpack. Due to being unable to speak, Chris had trouble finding his room but luckily, after a whole 30 minutes of searching, he finally found it! His room was located in an immense building right next to the Mission Center where one could take an Assassination mission. After opening the door to the room, he entered and started looking a bit inside, 2 Beds, 2 desks and 2 chairs and another 2 doors, Chris didn''t need an explanation to understand that he had to share his room with someone else and the 2 doors led to 2 different bathrooms. While he was examining the room, he felt a faint sound coming from one of the bathroom, it seemed that his roommate had already arrived. Not knowing what to do now, Chris decided to just sit in a chair to wait for his roommate to finish, considering he didn''t know the rules in [Viper]. The only thing he had remembered was that everyone was required to take a Compulsory Assassination Mission when they entered [Viper]. As Chris thought of that, he took out the items in the backpack, a pen, a notebook, his phone, a charger, and some snacks. It was truly lacking. Chris took the pen and started writing a bit on the notebook, this was the notes of what he had learned today, although his interface could make his skills stronger, if he didn''t know how to use the skills, it would truly be useless. It took another 30 minutes for his roommate to finish and Chris could finally see what he looked like, a red-haired handsome boy, Chris wondered, ''How the hell is he an assassin with this flashy hair color''. "You''re my new roommate, right? I''m Jack, what about you?" Jack held out his hand. Chris shook his head but didn''t say anything, he only took his notebook and showed it to Jack. "Oh! I know! You''re the dude who had to Assassinate John Sam and actually succeeded!" Jack looked extremely surprised when saying that. Chris was quite shocked at how he knew that and wrote, "How do you know about that?" "Well... I mean you''re the brother of "Massacre Evan" the one who caused most of the dead during the Days of Massacre, you''re also one of the few that took the Hell Newbie Assassination Mission and actually succeeded!" Jack was extremely excited while saying that. Chris, extremely puzzled, wrote, "Hell Newbie Assassination Mission? What is that?" "Wait... You don''t know about that? It''s the hardest difficulty of the Newbie Mission, only 9 people succeeded and now you''re the tenth." Jack became extremely confused when he read what Chris wrote. As for Chris, he was fuming with anger, the Assassination mission he had received didn''t have any extra information, he could''ve totally died in the Assassination Mission because he didn''t even know about the difficulty! In the end, Chris could only blame himself for not knowing about that. Although Chris wanted to continue asking Jack about how [Viper] worked, it seemed that Jack was extremely exhausted. He could only wait until tomorrow. The Next Day, When Chris woke up, he directly used his notebook to ask numerous questions to Jack who started answering without hesitation. Chris could then know about where he was and everything he needed to know, he was in the Base 01, which represented the base of the Newbie who were still learning the [Art of Viper] and showed extreme talent, there was in total 5 Bases, the Base 00, which was the Base of many incredibly strong Assassins, Evan was also part of them. The Base 02, base of the Non-talented Newbie, Base 03, Base of Criminals who obtained a chance of redemption. As for Base 04, nobody knew what was inside it. There were only 3 Rules in [Viper] : 1. Killing Other Members of [Viper] Isn''t allowed! 2. Members of the [Dragon] Are Enemy To The [Viper] And should be killed on the spot! 3. Leaking [Viper]''s Skills isn''t allowed! Breaking any of these rules resulted in being marked by Treason and would be killed on the spot. And the last thing he needed to know was the important locations in [Viper] Base-01. The cafeteria, The Training Grounds, The Arena, and The Teaching Building. Chris started creating his own schedule and decided to use the Training Grounds to the fullest until he could return to the Other World. 15 Chapter 15 - Barry Chris went to the class of Evan, this time, Evan only gave 10% of EXP to [Art of Viper], he then went directly to the Training Grounds. He started using skills from [Art of Viper], after 3 hours of training, his [Art of Viper] got 5% of EXP and he obtained 1 Agility Stat. Although it wasn''t late yet, the reason he decided to stop was due to information he had received on the new phone [Viper] had given him. [WANTED !! BARRY BATON!! MURDERED MORE THAN 100 INNOCENTS SPECIAL POWER IS GRADED AT B-RANK CURRENT POWER IS D-RANK LAST SEEN: XXXX CITY LIVES AT: XXXX STREET XXXXX REWARD: 15 STRENGTH GEM (ALIVE) 8 STRENGTH GEM (DEAD)] Following this Notification on his phone, he decided to rest for a while and think for a while, ''Why would he starts killing people?'', Chris quickly understood, ''It must be that he still owns the Jewel and he can still unlock his Personal Skill by killing people''. Although Chris didn''t care about Barry, Barry still knew about his Personal Skill so he had to be quickly killed. Because he had to focus on his training, he probably wouldn''t be allowed to leave BASE-01, so he decided to go to the Mission Center. "Hello, Fellow Disciple! Who do you want to be killed and which rewards are you willing to give?" asked the young receptionist. Chris had already written down the mission he wanted to put up. The main problem had been the reward considering he was rather poor but luckily, the needle he had used during his Compulsory Assassination Mission was rather expensive and he had gotten the right to keep it so he decided to use it as a reward. After the receptionist read what Chris wrote, he showed an uneasy expression, "Could you wait for a while? I''m still new so I don''t know if that can be used as a reward.", he said before leaving. The receptionist quickly came back and said, "I received a confirmation, this mission will be put up on the Board." Only then did Chris returne to his training, this time, he decided to train his [Raging Fire]. The Training Ground was in fact a building with one room per disciple so Chris could use [Raging Fire] without any problem except accidentally destroying the room. Depending on the number of Mana used, the increase in EXP would differ, while he was doing his test in the Sewer, Chris understood that the best way to get EXP would be using [Raging Fire] at 1 Mana. After using all of his mana, Chris''s [Raging Fire] reached 20% of EXP, he then used the control panel in his room to change the gravity of his room. He first increased the gravity of 9.8 to 10 and started slowly upgrading, only when it reached 16, did he starts to feel a strength pushing him to the floor, finally, he decided to stop at 18.7. He then ordered 3 Attack Dummies, he did all that to try and upgrade Constitution, Strength, and agility at the same time. The problem was that Chris had overestimated himself, the moment he started the training, attack dummy 1 directly rushed at him and punched toward Chris, Chris easily dodged and tried to counter-attack the Dummy but it was useless because Attack Dummy 2 used his knee to attack Chris forcing him to stop his attack. Chris used his elbow to stop the knee and directly kicked toward Attack Dummy 2, Attack Dummy 3 punched Chris''s leg, the 3 of them then started to madly pummel Chris who was now encircled by them. While getting beaten up, he started concentrating on his Mana reserve, after 10 seconds, his many finally regenerated, he directly used [Raging Fire] which caused the 3 Attack Dummies to start burning. Chris then used this opportunity to start to madly attack them, he easily destroyed 2 of them. The Last one had already stopped burning and started rushing toward Chris, Chris only had to punch the Dummy to destroy it, due to it being already seriously damaged after being hit by [Raging Fire]. Chris then saw every Notifications he had received. [Your Constitution Increased by 1] [Your Strength Increased by 1] [You Destroyed 3 Dummies.] [You Received 3 (-80% Due To Different World) EXP] Seeing that his Constitution and Strength already started increasing, Chris smiled and ordered more Attack Dummies, this time he only ordered 2. Chris then kept destroying Dummies until he felt too exhausted and went back to his room. He then kept the same routine of Destroying Dummies and Listening to Evan''s lecture until 10 Months later. During those 10 Months, his [Art of Viper] increased to level 3 and was on the verge of reaching Level 4, [Raging Fire] increased to level 1. He also obtained a Fire Crystal from Evan, after using it, Chris''s Element of Fire reached 30% and his Intelligence increased by 2. His current interface looked like this. [Name : ??? Race : Human Class : None Level : 2 (0%) Max Health : 1500 Max Mana : 150 Stat Gem Slots : 10 Strength : 14 Agility : 16 Constitution : 15 Intelligence : 3 Magic Power : 1 Skills : Art of Viper (Basic) Lv.3 (80%) Personal Skill : Universe-Sized Spirit Eater Lv.0 (10%) Raging Fire Lv.1 (60%) Elements : Fire [Awakened] (Perfect-Grade Compatibility) Lv. 0 (30%) Title : KingSlayer Lv.0 QueenSlayer Lv.0 Dummy Terror Lv.0 (Currently Equipped)] The new [Dummy Terror] title was given to him after destroying about 5.000 Dummies. [Dummy Terror : Dummies gives 10% more EXP (Skill and Level) ] Today, it also represented the Day where Chris would finally stop being taught by Evan. He could finally speak! The first thing Chris wanted to do was to go kill Barry, during those 10 months, unfortunately, nobody took his mission and so he decided to remove his mission and directly go to kill Barry by himself. Chris followed his whereabouts for a while and finally got a clue about where he was hiding. Chris used one of the Portal and left BASE-01. Although it was hard to reach the Portal, it was extremely easy to leave the Portal room. Chris then ran and quickly reached an inconspicuous cave. He entered it and quickly hid, this was the cave where Barry was hiding but it was also the cave of a Bandit Group. When he saw a lot of people entering the Cave, Chris used 100 Mana for [Raging Fire], this caused nearly everyone to die leaving only one alive. Barry! 16 Chapter 16 - Barrys Death Seeing the fire that had appeared, Barry was stunned but quickly drew his weapon, A Sword and a Shield, he then took out a stone and crushed it. The liquid inside the stone slowly changed to become an armor that appeared directly on Barry. At first, Barry was still being pressured by the fire but he could now resist the flames and it wouldn''t affect him much. "Which bastard dares to attack me!?" Barry screamed, extremely furious. Chris didn''t answer and remained hidden, waiting for Barry to lower his guard but he couldn''t help but be surprised at the emblem on Barry''s armor, it was the emblem of [Dragon]. As [Dragon] was the enemy of [Viper], every member of [Viper] had to learn the effect of every technique from [Dragon] and [Dragon] member had to do the same with [Viper] technique. Chris gritted his teeth, he only had one choice, the reason is that [Dragon] member preferred technique that would allow one to empower themselves and launch heavy attack whereas [Viper] preferred Sneak Attack. Due to the fact [Viper] liked to use Sneak Attack, [Dragon] higher-ups developed a technique allowing one to have a thermal vision, similarly, [Viper] higher-ups developed a technique to change one''s body temperature at will. And as Chris expected, Barry used [Dragon''s Eye] to scan the entire den, Chris stood still and started changing his body''s temperature, due to the burden it would cause if one changed one''s body temperature for too long, he had to quickly seize a chance. After Barry had scanned his area and started to look at other places, Chris slowly sneaked up to him using [Crouching Viper], he then slowly drew a dagger and readied himself to use [Viper''s Laceration]. *Slash* A deep wound was inflicted on Barry but not only he didn''t die, he remained very calm because Chris hasn''t seen him use any empowerment skill, he legitimately thought that Barry had an extremely high Health or owned a Personal Skill reinforcing his Health. That''s where he was wrong, due to the many assassination attempts Barry received, he would now always use [Dragon''s Skin] to empower himself when he could. After getting wounded, Barry didn''t move and used [Dragon''s Reverse Scale], it was a move allowing one to attack enemies that were behind without having to turn, this move was also way stronger and faster than a regular attack. Chris used one of the dodging technique he had learned, [Slithering Viper], he successfully dodged the attack but was then hit by Barry''s shield. This sudden bash caught him off-guard making him lose his balance, Barry took this opportunity to charge one of the strongest [Dragon] Technique, [Hidden Dragon]. Chris, before falling to the ground, succeeded in getting his footing back and jumped backward but was too slow and Barry had already finished charging [Hidden Dragon]! Barry directly thrusted toward Chris who was in the air, totally unable to dodge but due to his increased agility, Chris could now do things such as being able to move his body in the air but he would still be hit so what Chris did was to bend his body backward to avoid his foot being thrust before kicking Barry''s arm away. Although this was totally unable to kick Barry''s arm away, it was still able to move the trajectory of Barry''s arm allowing Chris to dodge the attack and avoid getting hit. Chris who was still in the air then used [Raging Fire] once again, this time he didn''t use much mana, only 1 but he aimed toward the open Neck of Barry. Barry became extremely scared after seeing the Fire appearing directly on his body and directly used his Personal Ability, he then entered the [Boundless Butcherer] form. Barry lost his Sword and Shield which became a huge Machete and his eyes became red from bloodlust. Barry started madly slashing toward Chris who had already fallen on the ground. Chris could only use [Banished Viper] to dodge all of those attacks, although Chris was confident in dodging most of the attacks, he still felt that being hit by even 1 of them would be extremely dangerous. Chris then started circling around Barry, in his new state, Barry was totally unable to think and would only think of killing so Chris easily dodged the swift attacks Barry launched. Although Barry was driven by bloodlust and totally unable to think, he seemed to have unlimited stamina making Chris unable to find an opening to attack so he could only try to maintain his distance and dodge Barry''s attack. But soon enough something unexpected happened, blood started flowing out of Barry''s nose, eyes, ears, and mouth. As time went by, more and more blood flowed before Barry fell to the ground and remained motionless. His machete becoming a sword and a shield. To be completely sure, Chris directly cut off Barry''s head. Sure enough, an ethereal version of Barry appeared and said. "Sure enough... You''re a real bastard." Chris didn''t answer and started resting while Barry continued speaking, Chris didn''t show any reaction until Barry said, "I shouldn''t have underestimated you, after all, you''re the one that killed most of the victims of the "Days of Massacre" " "What do you mean!" Chris shot a cold look to Barry. "So you''re going to act like you don''t know?" Barry sneered. Seeing Barry that wasn''t going to answer, Chris grew furious and directly absorbed Barry''s spirit. 17 Chapter 17 - Second One After Barry died, the armor disappeared and the stone re-appeared. Although Chris wasn''t a member of the [Dragon], he could still sell off this stone to get Contribution points which would allow him to buy numerous items. Having picked up the stone, Chris started searching in Barry''s pocket if he had something else, while doing that he checked the notification sent by the Interface. [You''ve Killed A Human Traveler (Level 5). You received 600 (-80% Due to Different World) EXP.] Chris was rather surprised, it was the first time that the Level was shown in the Interface. He then took out his phone and searched for one of the nearest Teleporter, although the one he used was really near, it was only a sender-type of Teleporter making it impossible to go back to the Base-01. Whilst running to the nearest Teleporter, Chris continued to think about what Barry meant, he was rather troubled, he never remembered having killed someone before having Transmigrated. Reaching the teleporter, he quickly activated it and rushed to Evan''s house, using the key that Evan gave him, he opened the door and called, "EVAN!" A rather annoyed Evan came down the stairs of the house and yelled, "Why the fuck are you yelling, I''m still fucking sleeping!" "Explain to me right now why did someone say that I killed most of the person during the [Days of Massacre]!" Chris angrily said, Evan stood there while sweat started appearing on his forehead, "Shit! You found out." Chris''s face grew cold and took out his weapon, "Chris, Wait. I''m going to tell you everything just sit down." Evan said after pondering for a while, "So basically, you have 2 Personalities, the first one is the current you, the other one is a crazed killer who is extremely hard to control, the second one only appears around every 5 years and it seems to be extremely strong, around 3 times stronger than the current you. The first outburst ended up in you killing our parents, the second and third one was stopped by [Viper] and the third one ended up causing the [Days of Massacre], in which you killed thousands." Evan calmly explained even though he still seemed to be quite fearful "Then why didn''t you tell me about it earlier and how come I ended up having 4 outbursts when I''ve only lived for 16 years!?" Hearing Evan''s explanation, Chris grew even more furious. "Well... The first time I tried to tell you about the second personality, it ended up in you having an outburst and it didn''t seem to reset the 5 years between each outburst, this caused the members of [Viper] to forbid others to tell you about the other personality for fear of causing a new outburst which seems to grow stronger every time. But as seen as you not having an outburst yet, it doesn''t seem to be the cause of your early Outburst." After saying that, Evan started to ponder while Chris was digesting the information he had just received. Chris left the house, went back to his room and lied down on his bed. After a while, the door opened, "Sup dude, so you killed Barry?" Jack excitedly said to Chris During the 10 months of training, Chris and Jack ended up being friends so although Jack didn''t know about the reason as to why Chris wanted to kill Barry, he didn''t care and just supported Chris. "Yeah..." Chris calmly said to Jack. "Oh cool! You''re gonna have to tell me about that later, I''m coming back later, I forgot my weapon and I''m running late!" Jack then quickly took off after finding his weapon. Chris was rather tired so he unknowingly fell asleep. While he was asleep, the bracelet on his arm started glowing and became bright again. When Chris woke up, it was already night, Jack came back and was asleep on his bed, Chris seeing the bright bracelet on his arm was surprised and pondered for a while if he wanted to go back there, although he wouldn''t have thought of this before, during the 10 months of learning, he had learned that Reviving someone was possible although it was really hard. To revive someone, one needed to reach an incredibly high level of power and be extremely proficient in the art of [Healing] or [Necromancing] or [Alchemy] but it seemed that none of these arts were available in the world, so the only way to get them would be going to the other world. Thinking for a while, he finally decided to activate the bracelet and go to the other world. Blue light surrounded him, Waking up to the extremely bright light, Jack asked ''Chris'', "Chris, did you see that blue light?" "Nope, you must be extremely tired making you hallucinate stuff" ''Chris'' shook his head. The 2 of them then went back to sleep. Although ''Chris'' answered, the real one had already been transported to the other world. When Chris opened his eyes, he found himself to be in some sort of Tube, he knocked on the window of the Tube and very soon, the Tube opened. It was as if Chris hadn''t used his eyes for a long time making his vision extremely blurry. A Blond-haired young man seemed rather surprised and said, "So... You finally came back it seems." Behind him, multiple figures also appeared within Chris''s vision.
