Chapter 11: Time to think
게시일:
2020-08-21 00:12:23When I opened my eyes again, I felt refreshed. I felt like my body was in shackles from before, but now, I feel free and light as a feather. It is a very comforting feeling. Upon thinking more about it, I just remembered that I had a hole punched through me by that wizard dragon. Is this the afterlife already? I then started looking around. All I see are the same old buildings in the school but much more pristine than what I remember. Afterward, Max perched atop my head and told me what was happening. Apparently, when I was dying with a hole in my chest from the old man’s attack, Max stepped in and saved me. Like the phoenix, Max can also resurrect once he dies. He triggered this ability when I died because of our life and death contract. He also died and then, he resurrected. Since our contract linked our souls together, I also got resurrected.
With that cleared out of the way, I looked into my awakened powers. When you awaken, you'll feel like you have full control over your powers. In my case, my awakened powers involve acquiring the Library of the Heavenly Way. When I see people perform an action or when I touch objects, the Library would generate a book on them that contains their flaws. Subsequently, this book generated by the Library would also show the flaws of what is written on it. Another function of the Library is that when it has generated multiple books about a certain topic, the contents of these books can be summarized to form a flawless book with all the correct knowledge and skills put together. Luckily for me, the Library already contains books that were present in the actual novel. However, I can’t access all of them at the moment.
I can access the Library in two ways. First, I can physically explore it in my mind like walking through a memory palace. Second, I can quickly access information like searching through a database; I think of a topic, then afterward, information on this topic would flood my mind. To compile new books, I would just have to will it when a party is performing a battle action or performing a craft or will it as I am touching an object. With my current knowledge and powers, I can use the books in the Library to improve my physical body, my soul cultivation, and my Qi or Mana Cultivation.
I assimilated the knowledge needed to get the First Rank of the Body, Soul and Mana Cultivation from the Library directly into my brain. This entails that instead of just recalling the knowledge, it would be treated as a skill that the body knows, like how to drink water. In drinking water, you stop breathing so your lungs won’t get water in them and your body opens up different holes, so the water gets into the stomach.
After analyzing my newly found power, I decided to analyze the book compiled on Max. Max is a sovereign elemental bird. Elemental birds are on the same level as the Thunderbird and the Phoenix but instead of focusing on one element, they can change the property of their mana into all the different elements. However, there is a downside to this. Since sovereign elemental birds like Max, spend time directing the different properties of their mana into all the different elements, they are not as strong in controlling each element as those single elemental birds that can focus all their mana 24/7 in only one element. In unlocking the ancestral memories of the sovereign elemental bird, which I did during the fight with the dragon wizard, the bird gets a certain degree of control on the property of its mana for a short duration of time. The maneuver that Max does where a bigger version of him shows up is how the sovereign elemental bird absorbs mana from all the different elements. You can think of it as how the Makahiya plant closes when it is touched by a stimulus. Instinctively, it knows what is happening.
Now that all my thoughts have been sorted out, I decided to pick up my phone. But, upon reaching it out from my pants left pocket, I just touched my leg. Apparently, I’m not wearing any pants and I’m naked. Uh oh.

Welcome to the New world Chapter 25: The Enemy of my Enemy
I am alone, hiding behind some trees near the dirt road; which can go up to a shining Church, or down to a stone archway that leads to nowhere. From my experiences with fiction it isn’t all crazy to think that the path that goes down in the middle of nowhere is the “main exit” that the guards were talking about, so I decided to go with the path that goes upward. Good thing, I still have with me the pen and paper that guided us to the portal which would help point to the location of Stephanie but would also hinder me if I pass through anyone and get found out. I must be smart in using this guide.I headed up to the trees nearest to the church building. I saw that the main entrance of the church building is being guarded
Welcome to the New world Chapter 24: Preparing to Jump
Son said, “That’s why I couldn’t track Stephanie's location. She isn’t in our world right now, but she also has not passed through the borders of the kingdom. She is inside this portal which leads to another dimension." Son paused for a bit to have a closer look at the portal and continued, "From its fluctuations, I think it’s an inferior dimension." Son explained that an inferior dimension is sort of a pocket space, similar to a demiplane. I then thought of its resemblance to the portal Anton made when we came across the vampire; only in this case, pocket spaces are much smaller, covering the size of a building or two at most. Before heading inside, we all prepared first. We asked Julian to guard the outer perimeter so that no one can interfere with us on the inside. Son handed me a piece of candy to act as
Welcome to the New world Chapter 23: Meeting the Pamangkins
Topher asked the kids, "Where is Stephanie? I thought you were all going to get here together. She said that she informed you all about her surgery being a success and wanted to party with all of you." The kids said that the last time they saw her was yesterday at Zack’s Beach House, Zack is the son of Dianne. Trevor, the son of Julian, replied with "We do know about her successful surgery. We partied yesterday at the beach house, Tiffany showed her a few moves, but then she said that she was tired and wanted to catch some sleep at home and left early." Two people interjected the words of Trevor, a teenage boy with a buff physique and a teenage girl with short hair who is also pretty fit. "Stephanie called last night and said that she came here, to her promised home and wanted to pull a prank on Paul, her uncle who stole this house from her," said the girl. "And then, she said that there was an accident. She sai
Welcome to the New world Chapter 22: Party Time!
After assimilating the book compiled on the Heavenly Way of Cooking Rank-1, I learned that cooking uses a lot of science. Perfect actions are needed and the fire or whatever materials you use also have to be perfect so that the full flavor of the dish comes out. Since the fire is too big for me to control, I decided to ask Max for his help. I asked him to control the way the fire spreads and how it would hit the pig. I am then in charge of maintaining a rotational motion of the pig that would complement the fire being spread on the open roast by Max. After four hours of focus on following the recipe and incorporating with it the Heavenly Way of Cooking, the result was delectable even just by sight and smell. The Lechon had perfectly golden-brown skin with no cracks, boils, or blemishes, and because the skin had no cracks there is no oozing of its own juices but it’s all flowing in the meat inside. I believe that
Welcome to the New world Chapter 21: Exploring the township
When I woke up, it was almost noon. The past few days that I experienced were undoubtedly exhausting but now, I feel completely refreshed; absolutely better than what I felt for the past few days, or should I say years. I guess one reason for this is because I lost weight and became pretty healthy since I started cultivating my body with the use of the Heavenly Body Manual. There’s still some time before our party starts later at sunset. When I opened my window, I saw my backyard already being prepared by folks I don’t know. Max told me that earlier, Joyce came and ordered the people setting up for the party that there is no need to wake me up. The house AI pretty much obeyed her orders since she still also has ownership of the house. Yesterday, Joyce told me I could customize the
Welcome to the New world Chapter 20: Accepting a Trial Disciple
I suddenly heard a thud from somewhere in my mansion. It is currently the middle of the night. Since I still don’t have a new phone and there are no clocks in my room, I couldn’t tell the exact time. When I looked up at the sky, I saw two moons and the stars were bright. I guess in this new world, light pollution isn’t a thing. One moon looks like the regular one while the other looks like a red version of it, kind of like the phenomenon of the blood moon. That doesn’t matter right now. I have to find out who the intruder is. I summoned Max through our telepathic link, but he seems to be asleep. I can wake him up by jolting his soul, but I don't think there is a need for that since I'm not really sure if there is a danger present. If need be, I can just wake him up. We’ve both been through a lot today and I want Max to just rest. I went ahead and checked out the noise. Even though I don&r
