Authors note: this chapter shall be a long one so brace yourself.
[Welcome to the Martial Realm]
Ryuki woke up in a gaze, as he opened his eyes, he looked around and saw very tall buildings and people fighting with some type of magic while floating themselves. he thought he was dreaming or at least in heaven because he died. looking up at a beautiful girl he thought he was seeing an angel for the first time.
"Sir, are you okay?" she asked with worry on her face.
"Yes, I am alright. do you have any idea where I am"? Asked with confusion, who are you?
looking at him with excitement in her eyes "I'm Aria, and the place you're in is called the martial realm where multiple worlds combine and the strongest magic users, and martial arts partakers, and if I may ask you don't seem quite strong now that I'm looking at you? why would they decide to summon a crony boy."
A very strong aura approaches.
Ryuki is frightened by this and gets into the best fighting stance he can with all his might he yells "Aria get back!!".
a strong being approaches, please don't be frightened child, I am the one named Li, please refer to me as master Li as I show you around.
Ryuki looked confused "Why would I call you master old man."
Li looks at the youngling and starts laughing so hard, as Ryuki looks at him confused, what's so funny old man?
Li looks at Ryuki in a playful manner "I haven't been called that in centuries!"
Ryuki looked around so intrigued by this foreign land, "So gramps, do you mind telling me what happened everything has been happening so fast, the last thing I remember was letting my mom and sibling run. I hope they made it back safe."
Master Li looks at the child, don't worry your family is safe shortly after they fled, they made it back into town and hid with your father.
Little did Ryuki know while he was in a place seen as heaven the rest of the world was living in a hell-infested world.
as they walked around Li stated, "The only reason you were brought here is that you died little one, and the title you were given is known as [Disciple of the Beyond], and with this unique title instead of dying you were teleported here to train to be worthy of that title of yours."
Ryuki asks in confusion and frustration "None of this makes sense that that all was just a fever dream."
Li replies to him with firmness in his voice "Look here boy I don't know how the mystical book landed in your world with that strong of a master tied down to it, let alone why the martial system chose you as its vessel."
Li stops and looks at the boy "The gods saw something in you, I don't know what, but it is my job as the grandmaster of your world and this realm to see to it that I bring what they saw out."
While Ryuki stares at LI and Aria in confusion, Li makes a gesture to Aria to take him to the living courters he will be residing in.
Aria puts on a smile and says "Sir Ryuki will you please follow me so I can show you where you will be residing, we shall have you rest today and begin your training the day after by early dawn."
They walk in silence while Aria explains the history of this floating city in the middle of nowhere, but Ryuki isn't paying attention his mind is only focused on one thing and one thing alone "I hope my family is okay."
Ryuki arrives at his room in a daze, Aria seeming worried "If you have any questions or just need to talk, I'm also a student of master's I'll try to answer any question you have so please reach out, don't sleep too late Ryuki hope to see you soon."
Ryuki still in a daze, "What is the martial realm, what is the martial system... I just want to go home."
Ryuki lying down on the bed, looking up at his arm, thinking about how strong the goblin king was, and he's determined to go back and kill that bastard for everything he did.
Ryuki, "System can you communicate with me or do you just show my status, skills, and quests."
[System unlocked] [communication level:1 (activated)]
[Hello Master, my knowledge is limited but I shall do my best to answer any questions you may have, as of now I shall grow with Master Ryuki]
[how may I be of service]
Ryuki asks the question that has been on his mind for a while, "What was the probability of me winning against the goblin king and goblins."
[The probability of you coming out victorious was 0% seeing how the goblin king was 30 levels above you and had a skill that weakens lesser beings, while he also has lots of different goblins alone that were far superior to you at the time.]
[Any other questions Master]
Ryuki sighed in frustration looking up at the sky, "I have one more question system, why me why did you choose me."
[unfortunately, you do not meet the level requirement to know of such knowledge yet. ]
[yet seeing as your my master I shall let you know this one fact; you were specifically chosen to have the power of the martial realm it was not random.]
While Ryuki thought about the million reasons he could have been chosen, he couldn't find a single aspect of his life when he was extraordinary, while he kept thinking of what a bizarre place this is he slowly but surely fell asleep,
