Chapter 35
(Story from the past, Pt 6)
Jake the Survivor Pov:
As I sailed onward to the town called Aqua town I thought about something I heard in the last town. Someone had said something about Status magic showing your abilities and stuff. Apparently when you turned eight years old they would baptize you in water. That was similar to my old religion before the recreation of the world.
I think they had said something like Status show so I tried it out. Funnily enough it worked, also for your information, I enchanted this book so it would censor stuff that shouldn't be known. Basically it sensors locations, rewords them, and makes it easier to read.

There was too many titles so only the important ones were shown. It was the same for my skills so I had a thing to click if I wanted to see more. I must say I am always impressed, but I also know it can also be improved. I am on the sea for days, I did not know which direction to head so I went in a random one.
After a couple of days I eventually see something on the horizon and head there. As I am within five miles of it ships come out and stop me. They asked, "State your business, Who you are, and why you are alone!" That last one confuses me as it makes no sense.
"I have come here because this place is interesting and I want to know how it has changed. I will not say my name as I have no reason to, as for why I am alone, I have not seen any friends or family in decades," I answer. The people seem not convinced and they aim their weapons at me.
"Then you will come with us, by force if necessary, to be interrogated," They say as they board the ship.
"And you should know who you mess with," I say as they take me into custody. They confiscate my ship, my vest, my pocket knife that was a souvenir, and my jacket. They were not that very trust worthy and I was thrown in the hold.
We arrived at the island and I was escorted to the Architect headquarters. I have not seen this place in decades since I left it. It is the exact place I help built all those years ago. As we go I see older people leaving their houses and following us.
The guards are confused but keep on going. We arrive at the Architect headquarters and take me in to the interrogation room. The people following try to force their way in but the guards stop them.
They are about to protest, but I call out, "Don't try to force your way in, it will only lead to trouble. I did not state my name as I wanted to see who would recognize me. Take that into account before you act." I break away from the guards, close my eyes, turn around, and walk around the building into the interrogation room, backwards. I do so faster than the guards can keep up to everyone's surprise. They are even more surprised that I know the layout.
The guards come in and restrain me to the wall with Chains. They must be taking it careful after what I did just now. All but four guards leave with bows trained on me. Next a gentlemen, around his mid thirties, enters and as soon as he sees me he laughs. This confuses the men a lot.
"This is no laughing matter! He escaped the guards and made his way here without knowing the way. He came here by himself and said he just wanted to see how it changed!," The guards had scrutinized the commander.
"It actually is a laughing matter! This man is legendary, from what I heard, he had defeated a Great demon single handedly. In fact he came from what we know as the old world. He defeated the evil Hero!," The man said not saying my name making the guards confused. I had only ever used one name in my entire time away from this island. That name was Jake, but I had a relative named after me with a similar name.
"You mean this man came from the last world? But how, we would know if he was!," The guards argued.
"Why didn't you say your name? I know you have your reasons, but still I want to know," The man asked as he came over to remove my shackles.
"I wanted to see who remembered me and who didn't. You always were the smartest of them all, Jackson," I say just ripping the shackles straight off. At that the guards realize who I am.
"We are very sorry Jake!," They all say as they try to leave.
"One thing, do not tell anyone that I am here, same for the guards. I want to see how everything has been going on for the last thirty years. An judging by your look I guess some of my family has passed away, who?," I ask the guilty looking Jackson as we leave.
