Chapter 13: School Escape
Petsa ng paglalathala:
2020-08-21 00:13:17With a fight imminent, I prepared to use my Sword art at them, but Max blew them away with the wind. They couldn’t do anything about the wind blowing on them. But before totally being blown away, they were able to stand up and call for backup. It was a short distance to the exits from the CAT office but as soon I left the room, I saw a Mechanical Dragoon, a robotic half-man half-dragon hybrid looking creature, flying down into the quadrangle. I tried to escape from it, but it blasted a charge at me, and it was too fast. To fight it, I should assimilate my movement techniques.
While this is all happening, the SWAT looking guards of the school are getting into their positions to surround us. One of the guards shouted, “The punishment for trespassing here is death, according to the rules!” I then replied, “This is my school. What are you talking about? What rules?” The guard replied, “Nice try. It has been a very long time since the school has stopped operating." After he said those words, I thought about how long we were gone for them to say that the school has stopped operating. Afterward, it looked like the guard I was talking to, received some instructions and shouted, “Clearance granted for lethal force. Capture targets dead or alive.” As soon as he relayed his announcement, they each took out a brooch showing the logo of my school and pinned it on their chests. It enabled them to get equipped with exoskeleton armor.
I see guards and one dragoon here, but I also hear vehicles from the outside parking. More guards might be coming. I then coordinated with Max. I'll handle the dragoon since it is just a robot and Max will deal with the guards since I’m not confident that I can disable them without killing them off because my strength has just increased and I haven’t really gauged how strong I am. From the novel, I should have around 100kg of strength from my mana cultivation and since my body got conditioned already, it should have the strength of around 45 megagrams.
I immediately used my Sword art which like my cultivation art, points to the very essence of swordsmanship. I can only do one move, but I know countless ways to apply it, making it a tough move to counterattack. I also coated my weapon with sword intent, a separate form of energy formed from my understanding of the way of the sword. Every weapon intent feels different. For swords, it feels agile and fast with flexibility at its heart, Giving it that popularity that no other weapon has. The dragoon with his spear jumped towards me. I moved to the side and used a shockwave attack with my sword to hit him. He barely dodged it, so I jumped up to surprise attack him but as soon as I hit his body, my sword vibrated. There must be something with his metal body that induces vibrations that could break my sword. Luckily, I coated my sword with sword intent and it easily sliced through the dragoon.
I looked around for a bit and saw Max netted up and couldn’t escape. I was thinking of going on a rampage to save him but then the dragoon that was cut in half from the waist regenerated and became two dragoons. I could continue my fight with the dragoon, but Max is in trouble. The guards were being pushed around by Max but as soon as they hit the net, Max couldn’t fly properly. He lost his composure. I then came up with a decision and shouted, “As long as we are captured alive, we will surrender.” The dragoon powered down and we got handcuffed. The handcuffs were simple silver cuffs linked together by blue light with some symbols on it. I then tried to search the Library and compile a book on the handcuffs. The search showed me, "Lowest Level Criminal Handcuffs designed by Mortal Rank-9 Engineer Son." According to the compiled book, the handcuffs cut off the mana supply from the world that could enter the body thus, reducing the one cuffed to returning to an ordinary human body much like before the apocalypse. My thought shifted to the name of the designer, "Engineer Son." It sounds like my friend. I hope it's him. We then got placed into a vehicle that looks like a black bar of soap with no windows. And then we flew away.

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
