Chapter 6 - Reality

5:50 AM

Leland who just woke up found himself trembling while sitting on his bed.

Holding his head with the both of his hands whilehowing a face of extremely confused person.

'What the actual fuck is going on!? Who am I? Where am I? What am I? Is that all a dream? Me getting transmigrated and me acquiring a game like system that maybe given by someone or something... Is this a dream? Is this a simulation made by aliens? Is this the reality? Who the fuck am I!!?'

Countless questions that no one can answer formed inside of his mind.

Still confused Leland stood up and tried to calm his mind by drinking a cup of water first and sat down on his bed after that.

'Okay Leland let's try to think straight first. First, my name is Leland Boudt.....' his current thought was suddenly interrupted when he realised something.

'NOOOO! I AM LELAND TUNDERMOSTT! NOT Leland Boudt!' he screamed in his mind.

Calming his mind for the second time Leland tried again to make sense again on what is going on around him.

'I am Leland Tundermostt, i was killed by 2 people I don't know after opening my door. Find myself inside a classroom, got the memories of the previous owner of this guy's body, I awakened a skill at the same time acquiring a system, cutting off the connection to the family of this guy's body by saying some cringe ass line to them, testing the system and my skill inside of this room without thinking and finally waking up.'

'....'

'The first and a half day of my transmigration here in this world named Rhexia is so messy huh' He thought while scratching the back of his left hand.

'First of all, what's with me acting like a protagonist in a mass produced garbage chinese novel? Second of all, why is the setting is so fucking similar in some of the manhwa, manhua and webnovels I read before?

Monsters and demons invading earth through some kind of portal. Humans almost got wiped out then suddenly awakening their powers to fight those invaders.'

'Finally, my last concern was WHY THE FUCK WOULD I NEED TO CUT OFF MY CONNECTION TO THE BOUDT FAMILY!?! SCREW BEING RESTRICTED!, SCREW EXPERIENCING NEW THINGS!

Without a backer or anyone that I can rely to protect me in this dangerous world I would surely die in a few months without the system! I really should've listened to my buddies before. I should've touch the grass and stayed away from those poisonous novels when I still have the time.' he thought

*Sigh*

'No use of complaining over a spilled milk. What I need to do now was to adapt on the current situation, get strong and finally grind myself to the death. I will think about other matters when I deemed myself strong enough.'

Leland was successfull in calming his mind by ranting and complaining. Not only that but he also created a temporary goal for himself for the time being and just like that Leland Boudt (Tundermostt) was finally and officially taking his first step into the world of of Rhexia.

Relying on Boudt's memory Leland is now walking towards one of the Elpis Awakener's Association branch (EAA).

Dressed in a formal suit he made his way inside the EAA.

Sitting down on one of the floating chairs Leland was amazed for the second time on how his old world was way behind in terms of technology.

Floating chairs, Hover cars, holograms, cleaning robots, etc.

According Boudt's memory the EAA is an organisation that manages, registers the awakened people and assigning the portals to the guilds.

Very similar to sovereignty but democracy or something similar.

(A/N: I forgot the term)

"Leland Boudt"

"I'm here"

"earing his 'name' he immediately get inside the room that he is supposed to enter.

"So one of the Boudts of huh...." Leland after entering the room heard the sentence of the guy dressed in a EAA business suit while sitting on a more comfortable floating chair.

"Mr. Leland just stay where you are and I'll just make your registration quick" the man said

"Okay, so what I need to do?" Leland asked

"All I need was some of your personal information like contact number and current and what can your skill do and please think carefully that giving fake information will result on EAA punishing you with 6 months in behind the bars and 1 year restriction of entering any levels of portals" the man said

"Is that all? No fighting assesment or something?" Leland asked

He doubted that the EAA all need was personal information and the description of their skills.

'But if that's really all It's not bad I guess? The faster I finish this, the faster I can condition my body for fighting.' he thought

"Yes that is all we need as for the assessment, it is optional but keep in mind that taking the assesment will only increase the probability of some high ranking guild taking interest on what you can do. As for your awakener's rank it will still the start at the bottom rank the F- rank like every newbie would." The man said

"Hmmm.... I won't take the assesment for now, so here are the documents that you need and the description of my skill is also in there."

Leland was sure that his skill was only above average but if he combine it with the system he is very confident to defeat those higher ranking awakeners and invaders excluding the irregulars.
