Chapter 16: Recounting what happened

2020-08-21 00:16:35Joyce scowled at me as soon as I asked who made her look so old. The guard nearby opened the top of his baton. Two small needle-like things shot out from it and headed straight for me, but Max blocked the shot. Electricity then flowed through the wires and Max seemed like he's enjoying the electricity flowing through the wires. The guard then shouted, “I told you that you would get hurt if you disrespect the Saintess again." Joyce waved her hand for the guard to stand down and then said to me, “I’m not the one that’s old. You’re the one that’s young!” She followed up with, “It has been 20 years since we last met. What happened to you?" Oh! So, that’s why Joyce looked older. I then started to tell her what happened ever since I resurrected.
Joyce laughed at all my other stories but she was surprised when I told her I cut the dragoon in half. Even the guard looked at me weird when I said it. They then leered at me and said that you need to be at least a Rank-3 Pinnacle Warrior-Class to be able to cut through the metal of the dragoon the way I did. They also asked me if I had a rare case of body-transformation awakening. They said that maybe that’s what enabled me to slice the dragoon in half. I said that I didn’t and instead, I had the same type of awakening as Son, a type where I just gained otherworldly knowledge. I kept the library as a secret since I didn’t know how to classify it and all.
Joyce then talked to the guard for a bit and the both of us got off the hook since I technically did not enter the forbidden ground. Joyce also explained that the school is now like a museum, kept pristine and open to visitors because it is where the one chosen by the world was awakened. I asked, "Who is the chosen world-awakener?” She said that she'll explain everything to me later. Right now, we have to head to the hospital to give treatment to Stephanie, her daughter who was with me in the prison. Joyce told me that if I would have been alive, Stephanie would be my goddaughter. Stephaine flatly refused it since I was barely older than her. She also insisted that she could already protect herself and that there's no more need to have someone as her godparent. Joyce then disagreed because of Stephanie’s condition.
After the papers were completed, I thought we were leaving already but I got pulled to the side to pick up a complete set of clothing since my clothes offer little to no protection. I was then directed to the prison’s reformation center and into the graduation hall. There was an AI system here that instructed me to choose what clothes I wanted to wear. I then imagined what I wanted to look like, and the AI prepared the clothing using nanobots. It was built from scratch in a matter of seconds. Wearing the clothes felt comforting. It turns out that the materials used to make it is Savage Spiderbeast silk, thickly infused with mana and augmented with comfort and protection magical runes. I looked into the mirror located on the side of the graduation hall and saw a young man in his early 20s with a fauxhawk. Since I cultivated the Heavenly Body, I could grow, shrink, and style my hair using my own mind. I'm wearing a black T-shirt under a white and blue green long-sleeve open flannel shirt. For my pants, I chose jogging pants with two streaks of white lines on the side since I feel that’s the comfiest and as for my shoes, I chose white and blue-green Vans that match my shirt. I’m around 5’7 in height. Looking pretty sharp.
When Joyce saw me, she laughed and said that it feels so nostalgic to be wearing this kind of clothes. We then proceeded to the hospital and headed straight for the intensive operation room. I asked if I could watch the operation. With a bit of pushing, Joyce eventually agreed with a condition that I would stay quiet since the operation is a secret.

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

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
