Chapter 3 - — Travel

Xenis was naturally, in the city of Xenis. From what Jacob took from Clay's memories, Xenis is a bustling city that's all about magic. Magic tools, training equipment, even bootcamps for people too old to go to the academy. But now, he had to take a long walk, by himself, to this city. He lived in the far urban countryside of Valeryeria, he was closer to the countries borders than Xenis.

He started to walk in the general direction of the city.

"Hmph, I should probably start to practice my magic so I can get a feel for it. I don't want to be at a disadvantage."

Using Clay's memory, he was able to conjure wind and earth pretty easily. But he had a feeling that Fire and Water would also be very useful, but he'd have to learn it himself.

"I'll probably have to learn it at the academy."

It was very easy for Jacob to get used to magic, as it was very similar to his sword Ki in its way of flow. Jacob used a fire type Ki. He would be able to learn fire type magic most likely easy if it could be learned the same way fire type Ki is. Jacob was able to manifest his Ki aura by using magic instead, this Aura reinforced his sword and body. Making his blows sharper and his body stronger.

Jacob walked along the road for a few hours. Nothing eventful happened. He occasionally passed by a traders caravan, and it was very unlikely he would ever talk to a trader. Traders weren't exactly his ideal type of people he would like. Traders were mostly scummy people who would do anything to make a quick buck.

He decided to speed up his movement by using wind magic to propel himself across the road. Although Jacob had quickly accepted his place in this world. He was still thinking about how he would adjust to this world. He was now in the body of a teenager. Now, obviously, he might've accepted this outcome if he himself was a teenager. But he's not. He's an adult man. And that's most likely going to cause some problems.

"Hm…well obviously, the romance area doesn't exist. Mostly because I'm not a pedo. And also, this body is a lot less physically powerful then my past life. So it will be harder to use since I'm used to using full force strikes. I'll have to rely on nimble movements now."

After a few hours of running, he finally arrived in front of the city gates of Xenia, the city walls towered high and mighty. Once the greatest fortress in history was now a city known for education.

Jacob scoffed as he arrived in front of the gates.
