"Travel."
Rey comes back to the Green Planet. The wind blew gently to his face. Rey feels strangely comfy while looking at the green forest. 'Comes to think of it, this planet is really green indeed.' He carries the bucket of salt with him. Several minutes later he arrived at the entrance of the village. He greets the other villager politely and the villagers greet him back. 'Their bodies were full of muscles. I wonder if their heads also made of muscles. Kekeke. What am I even thinking?' Rey headed straight to the villager chief house while bringing his 'gift'.
The villagers of Luo Village had great body. They were 180 cm tall with body full of muscles and tanned skin. Even those women in the village has more muscles than 'the great noble', Rey.
The children of Luo village would start their warrior path in the age of 7. Most of the became level 1 fighter in the age of 12. These results were not bad considering the resource they had was minimum. Some of them will became level 2 warriors while the other were stayed in level 1 for the rest of their life. The only level 3 warrior was the Old Chief.
To become a warrior and a mage, talent is needed. Most of the talented man/ women would be born within noble families, but there would be some ordinary man/ women who become stronger than those noble with their talent and hardship with 'a bit' of luck.

Luo Zi was waiting for Rey inside of his house. He had noticed Rey when Rey arrived in the entrance of the village. Rey entered the house and greeted the Old Chief. He looked at Old Chief's muscles. 'Even an Old man have such a nice body in this world. What a world.' Rey shook his head and sigh.
"Hello, Old Chief."
"Kekeke, it seems that you sneak out from your house again, Mr. Harry." Rey was embarrassed hearing what Old Luo said. 'Well, you are not completely wrong, Old Man.'
"Old Chief, this time I bring you a present." Rey showing off his bucket.
"This bucket? Well, this bucket looked very expensive Mr. Harry. We could not accept it."
The Old Man shook his head while Rey was stunned. 'Bucket? Really? How could this cheap blue colored bucket become expensive and you could not accept it because this bucket is expensive?' Rey was ignorant about the fact that plastic had not been invented in this world. Most of villagers' tools were made of wood. Even those rich noble never seen this kind of bucket before.
"Not the bucket, Old Chief. It is what inside this bucket."
'Inside it?' The Old Chief turn his gaze on what was inside the bucket. "What is this white crystal looking thing?"
"These are salt, Old Chief."
"Salt?" The Old Chief reach his hand to the basket and grab a handful of salt. He put the salt to his mouth and then he cried. 'Saltyyyy. Is this young man tried to poison me with this salt? How can you be so vicious young man and why was this salt so salty?' The salt was stronger than the salt that Old Chief had tasted before. Rey looking at the old man while trying his best to hold his laughter.
A moment later, Luo Zi finished his 'meal'. He does not want to waste the salt, because salt was precious. With a pale face, he raised his head and look the young man in front of him.
"Was this salt created by your family?"
"Yes, kind of, but you don't have to worry about my family because if I want to have thousand buckets of salt, they would not mid it." Rey was proud with his 'noble' family.
'Indeed. Rich nobles were different.' The old man pondered and nodded. "Since that is the case, I will take these present of yours." Old Chief reach the bucket carefully with a brightened face. He was clearly happy for the present he received.
Rey could not help but smile when looking the Old Man accept his gift. He was delighted by the Old Man's reaction.
"Old Chief, can you help me with something?" Rey asked respectfully.
"It would be my pleasure to help you, Mr. Harry."
"Can you teach me becoming a warrior?"
"Eh, no offense, but your family… I mean why?"
Rey was embarrassed. 'Because my family was not a noble family, Old Man.' Obviously, Rey would not say that.
"It's just that.. Ermm. It would be embarrassing for me to do that. Those brother of mine would mock me because our family was a mage family. My qualification for becoming a mage has tested and it was a bad one. So, I never to try learn magic."
The old man sighed. 'I can not understand those nobles at all.' Looking at the youth in front of him, the Old Man began to explain.
"A warrior and a mage were similar, they pursued power by absorbing spiritual energy. A mage would absorb the energy to build their core while warrior absorb the energy to build their body. Mage and warrior are not simply absorbing, they need to release it. The most common way releasing this energy was through training. You should know about this right, Mr. Harry."
"Of course." Rey replied with a straight face. He was not embarrassed by the fact that he had lied.
"First of all, you need to sense the spiritual energy before absorb it. Have sense it, Mr. Harry?"
"No.. I have not."
The Old Man was caught off guard by Rey's reaction. After all, how could a noble have not sense spiritual energy at his age. "Eh, Ermm. Then, I will show you how to sense it."
Old Luo began to show Rey the way to sense the spiritual energy. Absorbing spiritual energy was an easy matter as long one could sense it first. Old Luo began to meditate while Rey looks at the Old Man carefully. Rey could not see anything beside the sitting Old Man in front of him. He could not sense any energy that the old man absorbed.
The Old Man opened his eyes. "Alright, you may begin, Mr. Harry. One more thing, make sure that your mind was in peaceful state. Don't think about anything else. Focus on sensing the energy."
An hour later, the young man opened his eyes. "Old Chief, why could not I sense it at all?"
"That is normal, Mr. Harry. Just try your best to sense the spiritual energy."
"Alright."
"Mr. Harry, I have a proposal for you."
"What is it, Old Chief?"
"You were teleported here right, Mr. Harry?"
'Fuck… Am I exposed already?' Rey was nervous and his face turned pale.
"You do not have to be nervous, Mr. Harry. I mean no harm."
Rey face became more relaxed and carefully asked. "So, what is your proposal, Old Chief?"
"How about we make a house for you?"
"A house." Rey was confused for Old Man's proposal.
"Yes. I noticed that every time you want to use teleportation magic, you will go to the forest. If you don't mind, we would build a house for you, so you don't have to go to the forest anymore."
"I would gladly accept that." Rey was full of expectation and gratitude. 'The old man wants me to use the house for teleportation purpose. What a good Chief.'
"That would be great. I will instruct the villager immediately. For now, how about we grab some food, Mr. Harry?"
Feeling hungry because of the practice before. Rey immediately replied. "That would be great. Kekeke."
The old man instructing the villager to build the house while Rey was escorted to the dinning room by Luo Di. The feast today was a roasted chicken. Rey was feeling so hungry so that he ate two plates of meat and some fruits. Rey was satisfied. He also learned a lot about spiritual energy from the Old Man. His trip today was so fruitful.
After the feast, Old Luo guided Rey to the house. Rey was shocked by the sight in front of him. 'Is this the house. How can it be so fast? A brand new house was built while I enjoying the meal.'
Rey entered the house with Old Luo. 'Wood, all of them were created by wood. Well I have expected that would be the case.' Rey nodded in appreciation while observing the house.
"Are you satisfied with the house, Mr. Harry?"
"Satisfied. Really satisfied." Rey was smiling while the old man was overjoyed. 'Fortunately..' The Old Man muttered sigh a relief.
After some conversation with the Old Man in his new house. The Old Man left him alone. Rey looked around once more time he nodded and closed his eyes.
"Travel."
Rey open his eyes. He noticed that the sky has turned black.
"Brother, why has not you come down yet. Mom and Dad is waiting." His sister calls for him seemingly annoyed.
"A moment, Bella." He hurriedly goes to the dinning room after took off his shoe.
