Chapter 3 - Chance Encounter

It's been a week since I got back from the other world. Many commotions raised since I got back. The whole school was in an uproar since I went missing on our camping trip in the mountains.

The teachers were grilling me with questions and scoldings.

I told them that I was chased by the animal and caused me to get lost in the forest and when I got back to the camp they already went home. When they heard my explanation, the teachers believed it. But I still got suspended for a week.

In the first day, I was suspended, I tested if my powers. First, the status window still appeared in my view when I say " STATUS OPEN". My level displayed ???? and the same with my other stats. There I discovered I few titles the I didn't have when I was in the other world. And my skills was the same and I can still use them.

I flew to a non-populated island in the pacific ocean to test them. There I made sure to erect a barrier so that I can't be caught. I concentrated and feel the surrounding area to make sure of there was no one on the island when I was sure I started my experiments.

I blasted my a fire skill and gave it all my power to and it destroyed the island. And so I decided not to use magic here. I cast time magic on the island to the time before it was destroyed

After a few hours, I decided to stop. I concluded that I can use all my skill s and never to use it here on earth.

"Many of my skills were maxed out huh".I murmured a load. "Maybe it's the effect of defeating the demon army."

I teleported at the back ally near my house so that I was not seen.

Before I got home I did the grocery and started to make dinner. My sister was shocked that the food was already prepared and the table was already set since I never cook at home ever since my mom was hospitalized.

"It's rare for you to cook," she said, " What's the occasion?".

"I just felt like cooking" I retorted grumpily.

She turned on the TV and we watched her favorite show until we were finished eating.

" When did you get so good at cooking?" She asked while she was rubbing her plumed belly and smiling satisfied.

" Donno, Stop rubbing you tammy, it's unladylike." I dodged the question.

" Yeah, Yeah..." She answered sarcastically.

My sister was a jolly and strange girl. She has blond hair and blue. She was about 125cm. She was an honor student. She gave an aura of mature and excellent girl. Her grades were much better than me when I was at her age. She was responsible. Ever since my father disappeared and mother got seek, she was the one who was the in charge of the house and cooks for the two of us. She was the representative of her class. She was active at school works. She was the ideal student. She classmates call her Ina. Her full name is Mariane Adrianna Phoenix.

As I was cleaning the table, a news flash aired." There was an earthquake with the magnitude of 6.3 was recorded in the pacific ocean and the epicenter was near Hawaii and the authorities raised the Tsunami warnings in the coastal areas. The authorities advise the masses to be careful especially in coastal areas."

Cold sweat started to poor on my back. I never thought that it was felt outside the barrier. As I was thinking that. My sister spoke."That's dangerous, maybe the world is ending." my sister jokingly said as she was lying on the couch.

"Sorry 'bout that." lamented in my heart.

"huh?... why are you apologizing? It's not your fault that the earthquake occurred.

" ha. ha. ha." I just laugh awkwardly.

" Oh! right, we need to call grandpa if he's okay." she suddenly got up and ran to get her phone.

I promised from then on that I will not use my skills and magic to do that kind of experiments even if it was within a barrier. And decided to make a skill that limits my strength to the standard of the earth society.

A week later…

I was walking to school, I felt someone. He was in a distance and giving off a murderous aura following me. But I didn't pay attention to him. I waited for him to make a move. I figured he will not make a move that will get attention in a crowded place.

"He been following since I left my house." I murmured.

Then my classmates tackled my behind. I nearly fell to the sidewalk.

"Why so gloomy early in the morning?" As he was patting my back.

" Awe.. that hurts! You muscle for a brain."I said, " Will you stop hitting my back, Jean."

I hit the son of a b***h on the head.

"The F*ck, why did you hit me so hard," he said as he was rubbing his head. "By the way what were you murmuring about?"

"Nothing, man" The presence vanishes as my friend was giving me a hard time.

After school…

As we were heading home I felt that familiar presence.

"Sigh… again. He returned… Huh. He's in the building next door."

Then there was a mana surge suddenly occurred that nearly blown the building …

I shoved my bag to my little sister and run. She was shocked that I started to run in the opposite direction.

"Where are you going?" She shouted at me.

" Just some urgent business came up."

I run towards the building. As I turned at the corner of the street I used the teleportation skill to hasten my pace.

As I arrive at the abandoned building, there was a monster. The monster was jet back with humanoid traits. It was standing on two hinds, but every time it walks the concrete cracks as is it was too heavy. Then it ran towards a girl wearing a knight costume.

I remembered the one who was following me this morning. It was the same aura as the monster.

"So the one who was following me was the monster… HuH?" I murmured as I was observing the battle.

Then my eyes landed on the person wearing a cosplay. There I realize that the armor was real and giving off magical energy.

"It's real!!!. What the hell?..." I was shocked.

Then an explosion occurred when I was pondering on the fight. The explosion caused the person to fly towards me.

"No choice huh, Let's do this." I ran towards the person.

Catching him, I skidded backward and I realize that knight was a girl.

She was wearing a full plate of silver armor. The sword and the shield she was holding was blown off. She took off her helm and show she has a cut across her chicks, guessing her age it was about my age and looks like she had fainted. I knew this girl, but I don't remember her name.

I scanned the area and as the smoke clears, the monster was emerging and it was unharmed.

"Tchi… I thought it was blown to smithereens. Why did a monster with magical potential have to appear here, of all the places!"

The girl groaned and move her hand a little.

"She's not moving any time soon"…

As the monster was moving toward us I readied myself and pulled an iron sword in my storage and swing it vertically. With a "CLANG" it broke cleanly in half.

"It's hard" I lamented as I was regretfully thinking of the destroyed sword.

Then the monster's hands stretched and formed a blade and tried to cut me from above. I deflected it with my broken sword clad in aura and distanced my self carrying the girl on my back.

I threw the broken sword to distract the monster and pulled out my mithril sword and cut it cleanly in half.

It fell on the floor and it shattered. A red circular crystal was present in the debris and I put it in my inventory so I could study it later.

Then I place the girl and her destroyed equipment at her side.

"A monster, a knight and magic in this world. What's going on?" that was the thought running through my mind.
