Chapter 3 - Chapter 3 Escape from reality... To another reality

Jim was really late. Like late AGAIN.

" The next time you are late, YOU WILL...."

Boss Chen's words fell to deaf ears as Jim eyes became fixated on the angelic being walking out of the pantry. Jeon Mye gave a little nod in Jim direction, enough for him to be happy for the rest of the day.

Swiftly brushing off his boss final warnings, he settled into his own office desk. As he slouch forward on his desk thinking, he was abruptly interrupted.

" Oi Jim, how was your visit to the temple yesterday?"

Hyun was peeping over his booth and started questioning Jim.

Hyun had been Jim's friend since they were in primary school and literally were bullied together all the way till today.

"Nothing much happened, just praying to get a girlfriend lol"

" You are talking about Jeon again arent you? It's impossible for you to get her man, take a look at yourself!"

"Says you lol"

But it was true. Jim was just an average, no, below average kind of guy. He was just a normal diploma holder working at a tech design company. He wasn't rich, neither was he good looking. In addition to that, he also did not have any connections with the higher ups. Sighing heavily, he went to the vending machine for a cup of coffee.

CLINK

He picked up the coin from the coin dispensary area and placed it back in again

CLINK

CLINK

CLINK

... What the heck is wrong with this coin...

CLINK

Jim picked it up and took a closer look. The number 1707 were engraved on the coin itself and on the back were the words

'AWAKENING'

Transition with

'Good Morning, Goodnight'

His hands trembled at the sight of the coin. It wasnt a dream. There is really a world out there.

The day passed quickly as he did not focus on his work, but rather questions that he wanted to ask the Jeon-look-alike.

What is this place?

Why does my body feels like that?

Does that mean there are 1706 others before me?

Do i get any superpowers?

Can i summon a genie and make three wishes or some sort?

And most importantly,

What makes me different?
