The sun had just begun to cast long shadows as Alex trudged home from another exhausting day of classes. He was just an ordinary student in a world much like ours, where the weight of expectations bore down upon him. The endless cycle of tests, assignments, and never-ending pressure to excel had taken its toll.
As he reached his modest apartment, the first thing he did was to collapse on his bed. It was the best way to unwind after a grueling day, and the comforting embrace of his mattress beckoned him to rest. The familiar setting of his apartment was like a sanctuary, a place where he could escape from the constant demands of the outside world.
As Alex lay there, he felt the heaviness of his eyelids and the soothing pull of sleep. His mind was a whirlwind of thoughts, a cacophony of academic pressures, expectations, and the monotony of daily life. "Just a short nap," he muttered to himself as he closed his eyes, surrendering to the embrace of sleep.
But this nap was different. It wasn't a brief respite from the world; it was a journey into the unknown.
As he drifted into slumber, the boundaries of reality blurred. It was as though he had stepped through a hidden doorway, leaving behind his apartment and the world he knew. The transition was seamless, and as he opened his eyes, he found himself in a place that defied his understanding.
"Huh, what happened?" Alex muttered, his voice filled with bewilderment. He sat up and began to piece together the fragments of his memory. "I remember lying in my bed, feeling drowsy, and then...nothing. It's as if I blacked out."
As Alex looked around, shock gripped him. He was not in his apartment, that much was certain. Instead, he found himself in a vast chamber. To call it "big" would be a gross understatement; it was larger than his entire apartment building. The walls stretched into the distance, adorned with intricate designs and mysterious symbols.
Alex's heart raced as he contemplated his situation. "Did someone kidnap me?" he wondered aloud, though the notion seemed improbable. "But why would they kidnap me? My parents aren't rich or influential."
Just as alex was thinking about why someone would kidnap him, a sharp pain assaulted him it felt like his head is gonna burst and then some memories started to appear in his head it felt like he was watching someones life like a bystander.
When he finished watching it all he get the gist of the situation he is in, he has transmigated to his parallel self and the world he is in is a parallel earth but it in this earth there are there are dungeon and monsters, here people's have status screen and use mana to cast magic and clearing dungeon or killing monster give the reward.
Now alex was panicking he doesn't want to live in this kind of world he where power is everything je has read enough novel to know what will happen next, he was going to run around the world making enemies, collecting someone's fiancee, making a harem, finding opportunities that no one has found and reaching the apex of the world only to find that it is not the apex and there are larger world out there.
"Well lets think about those thing later now lets look at the situation we are in first" with that said i started looking in the memory of the parallel me well first is started with how my life was in this world and my life was good i would say, in this world my parents are rich i mean filthy rich.
I have a big brother well he is always full of energy, we get along well he is very talented you could also say he is a genius as he was a rank D in his first year of studying in world academy.
In the memory of my parallel self world academy is place where only genius goes it is the best academy, inside the academy only your personal strength matters academy has its own currency that you have to use to buy things in the academy. World academy has produced many heroes in past and it has one of the best teachers and facility, even entering the academy is very hard, well some family do donate get their children in the academy and academy also accepts it as it helps the academy in providing better environment for the students with poor or middle class families, all in all it is the best academy.
I also have a big sister well we don't get along, well she has a very soft heart but tries to act cold on outside, she is also very good but not a genius like big brother, well anyone who enters world academy is a genius even the last ranker is a genius but if you compare her with other geniuses she is good but not the best.
As for mom and dad are the same as previous world with much more money snd mom loves me a bit more and my grandpa in this word is a king class, one of the strongest people in the world, well that solves the problem of some old man coming to kill me because i killed his grandson or something.
The me in this world is cold. so cold that he only smiled when he was a child. Its not like he has a problem its just he is cold and doesn't show any expression, even when he is injured he doesn't cry, he only has a poker face he doesn't cry, laugh, gets sad or angry, that's why mom is always worries about him. Mom has done everything from taking him to the best hospital to shaman to circus to scolding him but he is like a robot always maintaining his poker face that's why anything he wants mom gives it him and he is not even awakened, in this world people have to awaken their mana by using a mana stone or mana gem. Mana gem is very precious so only rich people use them to awaken, mana gem is more pire than mana stone so it is better to awaken using mana gem.
Just as i was going through the memories i heared the door opening, and someone came inside, i paniked and started making poker face. I tried to see who came and i saw a women with age berween 24 to 28 with silver hair ocean blue eyes pale white skin with right not too big ass and boob.
Just as i was seeing her she spoke "master alex dinner is ready" i raced my mind to remember who eas she after finding her i spoke "ok sylvia i will be there in a minute you can go" then she said "ok master" and then left, after she closed the door i started searching how i acted with my parents, when i searched everything i started get downstairs to have dinner.
