Chapter 2 - Luck on my side?

meanwhile in the zeon kingdom...

The battlefield was littered with the corpses of monsters. Soldiers fired crossbow after crossbow and cast battle skills from atop the kingdom walls. But seven figures stood out, clashing directly with the horde and killing them in a single hit. They were none other than the seven generals of the empire.

"Tyris, we have to use the core cannon. We can't handle this," said one of the generals, a thin man who spun his sharp blades to slice through any monster that crossed his path.

"Are you sure about that?" Tyris asked, wiping sweat from his forehead as he parried a monster's attack.

"I think it's our best bet, especially since the Academy hasn't sent any disciples yet," another general said as he punched a gorilla monster in the head.

Meanwhile, on the castle wall, a figure sat on the throne, watching the battle unfold. He wore luxurious clothes and was none other than the King of the Zeon Empire, the fourth strongest person in the royal family, and a true Origin Realm Master, also known as a King Realm Master. His sharp features belied his youth, and one might wonder if he was truly fit to be a king.

As the seven generals debated their next move, a sudden roar echoed across the battlefield. A massive, hulking monster had appeared, easily twice the size of any of the others they had faced so far. Its red eyes glared at them, and it let out another earth-shaking roar.

"We have to take that thing down," Tyris said, his voice firm. "But we can't do it alone."

The other generals nodded in agreement. They all knew that this was their greatest challenge yet. But just as they were about to charge forward.

Then the ground started shaking.

All of the generals become high alert.

the ground beneath their feet began to shake once again. This time, the tremors were so powerful that the generals were knocked off their feet, their bodies slamming against the ground with bone-jarring force.

As the dust settled and the smoke cleared, the generals looked up to see a bright white laser beam cutting through the air towards the monster. The beam hit the creature square in the chest, causing it to let out a final, earth-shattering roar before collapsing to the ground in a heap.

For a moment, the generals stood there in stunned silence, their eyes fixed on the fallen monster.

Meanwhile the king looked at the core of his kingdom at the king's castle and sighed.

" Now we lost one of our trump cards now "

"Woah ahaha the ground is shaking.".

[ Host after analyzing the shockwaves are coming from the northern side...

System detected many powerful aura from there.

System recommends to leave this place fast]

And thus I ran from there as system suggested as if my life was on the line.

We'll why won't I, it's only been 3 hours I appeared on this World.

After 15 minutes..

" Sigh am I safe now ?"

[ SYSTEM doesn't know.

But the good news is system has collected many useful data from the aftermath..]

[ System changing]

[ New function unlocked]

[ Skill tire ]

[ Skill tire : The rank of a skill.higher level the tire higher the damage output.

A skill can be upgraded to a higher tire by using Skill points or skill shards.]

[ Skill shards can be aquired by passive and active books by gaining the same skill which user owns.]

Each book copy of book gives 100x shards of same rank.

Upgrade takes.

100 shards for tire one skill

1000 shards for tire two skill

10000 shards for tire three skill

100000shards for tire four skill]

" System I asked I'm safe or not but what are u doing -_-?"

[ The informations are important for host]

" Sigh NVM skill upgrades seems interesting"

[ Yes it is by comparing the shockwaves system detected many waves of aura in different levels.thus system choose to add in it for the host too]

[ If the host thinking about the amount of points. System can't do anything about it as it's needed to increase the power itself]

" Sigh..well whatever with u my journey in this new world will be awesome"

[Yep host]

I looked at the huge trees which almost seems like metal pillars.

" Should I just climb up a tree?"

[ I recommend not..and more over it won't be worth it]

[ as there's no Monsters in the area ]

" Ah I see"

" so your telling me I have to walk a lot more and with no food ? ;-;"

[ Affirmative but the problem of food can be solved as system detected a Water fall not far from here and beside the water fall are some special fruits...which could even aid the host for cultivation]

" Woah why didn't u said it earlier "

[ Walk straight and turn left .

It will take 24 minutes]

" then why didn't u tell me earlier -_-?"

[system detected it just now ]

" sigh"

[I'm still learning host..]

________________________

24 minutes later.

A small tree about half of my height was beside the water fall and another unexpected thing happened

" There are even fishes in the water!!"

[ Hosts assumption is correct. Systems soul scan can't enter water flows..it doesn't means it can't but it will cost some soul powers.]

" ah is soul power important?"

[ yes host soul power can be used in different ways.system doesn't know which way this world utilizes that.And it's recovery speed is Slow. ]

" oh I see "

[ yes host u can see ]

"-_-"

then I looked at the tree which seems like a puny grain of rice in front of this towering trees....
