Chapter 3 - CHAPTER III

The year is 2023 humans are still recovering from the corona virus that plagued the entire world,

humans has not explored the entirety of the water bodies ,global warming is on the rise ,

corruption rises each day,so are the killings in most countries,the natural disasters.

"Well it's a good thing I'm in Nigeria I wouldn't have to go through all these natural disasters,

If only we did not have such bad government,things would have been better "Noble thought to himself.

As teenager living in the urban city of umuahia,that's all the news talked about and even kids know of the Israel and gaaza war.

Noble was the smartest in his class and without even trying,

the thought of sitting down to read anything other than mangas ,

manhwa or anything science fiction generally Is boring to him

Well he was really smart to ,he was someone who showed his best when under pressure,

but he didn't know this yet as he didn't see exams as anything pressure,the only exams he really feared were Mr Franks

"If only I could get Isekaied ,not by truck-kun ,or anything painfully, just poof and I'm gone,

I'll escape from this hard reality everyone seems to have a particular thing they are good at ,

even Erun is good in sports and very fit too ,and then there is me I'm just fat and ugly,

"I really want to be Isekaied with OP stats at least if a god asked me what I want I'll just want to have Itachi's personality from Naruto ..

Yea we will skip the part where he murdered his clan,I just want to be as cool as him

Plus imagine how cool I would look with a sharingan,but wait what will happen to my family when I get Isekaied?

That's the least of my problems,what verse of anime would I get Isekaied to?imagine if it's into attack on titans"

Noble bursted into laughter "or demon slayers" and I'm tanjiro"s younger brother"

Noble laughed even louder not minding we was walking on the street.

"Talking to ourself are we again Noble"an old voice from one of the shops spoke,

It was at this point Noble regained himself and cleaned the tears dropping from his eyes.

"Uncle Jones,good evening"Noble greeted "good evening Noble how was school today?"

An old man who looked as of he was in his 70's asked, "as stressful as always"Noble responded

"This boy stop complaining about school, you youngsters are really enjoying now ,

when I was your age I walked from...."the earth to the sun "Noble whispered

At this all the men at the groceries shop burst into laughter, uncle Jones laughed really hard too,

"This boy eh ...this boy ehh" uncle Jones complained pointing at Noble who was smiling

"Let the boy go drop his bag ,you see he is just coming back from school and you are already lecturing him

,give him some time to rest at least "oya Noble go and rest inside ,your mum is already back"

A woman who looks as if she was in her 60's but still had all her hair black with no single grey hair in sight spoke up"

"Thank you aunty confidence" Noble said to the woman, as he moved forward and pushed opened the black gate and walked inside.

A sky blue duplex with black roof could be seen standing in a very wide expanse of land,

Three vehicles could be seen parked at the right side under a

Canopy like tree

A Mercedes BenzG-wargon, A Lamborghini Aventador a luxury racing car which was specially reserved for when Noble graduates from High school

and a very old Volvo covered with a tapoline.

"I don't know why mum still leaves this vehicle here,it's old, and he is not here too"

Noble said to himself with a slight frown on his face ,but as soon as he gets to the door step he straighten his face

,smiles and opens the door and says "mum I'm home"

A female voice from the kitchen answers back"Welcome Noble,how was school today"

Patricia a very beautiful tall woman who looks as if in her 50's wearing an apron with a wooden spatula in her hand walks into the living room "Good evening mum"Noble greets

"Evening,how was your day " Noble's mum responds ,"as tiring as always" Noble responds as he makes way to jump on one of the seat,

"is that your shoe still on your legs"Noble's mum shouts as she makes her way with the wooden spatula to hit Noble

"Shit ....sorry mom"Noble quickly removes his shoe while apologizing as he runs upstairs"

By the way where is Luna,I haven't seen her"Noble said "Your sis is upstairs,she said she wanted to

give me a surprise" patricia said with a smile as she goes back to prepare dinner.

"It's finally finished !! A loud voice roared from the first floor of the house as little legs could be heard running down.

"woah woah woah ...where are you running to"Noble said as he carried the little girl who looked as though she was six years old

"I want to show mummy something"the girl said as she was struggling to get down from her brothers arms

"Mummy is in the kitchen" Noble said as he slowly carried her down."mummy , mummy"

Luna called out as she ran toward to kitchen "what is it "her mum asked "I am finally done with the drawing,

The project I was given was draw what you love the most,close your eyes let's go "Luna said jumping.

"Fine ..fine let me wash my hands "

"Ok Let's go " Luna held Patricia's hand as they climbed the stairs,

As they got closer to luna's room,luna stopped and told Patricia to close her eyes before she could enter,

as the entered Luna told her mum to open her eyes as a really beautiful drawing was standing in the middle of the room

Noble who was already in the room has been staring at the drawing in awe was smiling "Luna you did this?"

"Yes mum I did"Luna said happily"I knew my sis was really good at drawing,

but this...this is just too much,she really does take after dad huh?

"Noble said while carrying the painting is a middle aged man who looked as though he was in his 60's.

"Where did you get the picture you used for this drawing "Patricia asked

"Well i used the picture dad took when we went to the zoo two years ago"

"I am really proud of you Luna"Patricia said while hugging Luna

"Nice one sis "Noble said stretching his hand for a fist bump" "tnx bro"Luna said stretching her hands too.

"I will be in my room if anyone needs me "Noble said as he left the room .
