Tear found himself in the middle of a spacious jungle. The trees were much larger than normal, the grass was still short, and bushes were taller than him.
Plants of various colors and sorts, luscious and vibrant thrived all around him. It gave an appealing, refreshing vibe.
The sky was mostly visible as well, and so, the first thing Tear did was look straight up into the sky.
"Only one sun." He said, "But it looks different than the one I'm used to... maybe it's a bit bigger?" He couldn't pinpoint it.
He looked down at his hands. They were clean, unblemished and tan.
No wrinkles as he had seen plenty of times before. He also noted that he was a fairly normal height for a human.
He plopped down onto the ground before lying on the grass with all of his limbs extended out.
"So... I just killed a man." He said to himself, thinking of the pompous judge.
He knew that the judge was going to die if he let him go near the leaflings.
But then again, the judge chose to sacrifice him and save his own fat ass instead.
"At that moment, my emotions overtook me. I was mad, so I let him get a taste of his own medicine. But... didn't I go too far?"
Everything that had happened to him in the past several hours was more than overwhelming.
The new information was like a bomb dropped on his brain.
And now, he had to deal with the fact that he pretty much was the cause of a man's death.
He was frustrated. Did he do the right thing? Some people might have called his actions justice.
He couldn't make a decision about whether what he did was the right move or not.
"My goal was to get him back to Earth. But... the words he said before he died. He wasn't wrong. The chances of me returning there are slim to none."
He paused, thinking for a moment.
"Who cares though. I don't want to go back to that shithole anyways. I'll start a new life here. Out of all the planets I've been to, it's the most similar to Earth. Maybe here, I'll get to live a better life than the one I had on Earth."
His eyes were closed, a grin on his face as he daydreamed about having four-eyed alien babies with a leafling wife.
Wait... how does that even make sense? There must have been an alien mailman in the equation or something.
Well, anyway! A cool breeze passed through Tear's balls.
"Oh shoot!" He abruptly said as his eyelids flew open. He ran over to a bush and used a large leaf over his waist.
"I forgot I was naked." With this sentence, Tear looked forward with big eyes--ready to accept this planet as his own.
He took out the transparent magic book. He now understood that its name was the God Grimoire. Or GG as he already nick-named it.
"I'll never use the Disappear spell again unless I have to due to dire situations."
As he flipped the page once to get to the Disappear spell, he noticed that it had completely changed.
No longer was it called Disappear, but rather, [Planetary Teleportation].
[Description: Ability to teleport to the nearest habitable planet.]
[Hidden ability: ??????]
Tear looked read this description a couple times over before flipping the page back to his previous two.
"GG has already automatically told me that these two spells have also already changed." He said, staring at the first two spells.
[Transfer]-[Description: Ability to transfer small objects from one hand to the other.]
And the second spell was:
[Hypnosis]-[Description: Ability to hypnotize certain subjects within met criteria by moving a round object in front of their eyes from left to right.]
[Spell Criteria: The subject has to be weaker than the user. This limit falls short on beasts, who can be stronger than the user to a certain degree.]
"Interesting... from what GG has told me automatically, I know that this grimoire adapts to any world that it's in. Since it was on Earth, it learned Transfer and Hypnosis, which are very simple tricks that many magicians know how to perform. The Planetary Teleportation spell, however, is a mystery as to how it got there. Nevertheless, what's interesting is that now that I am on this new planet, all the spells have already changed slightly."
He looked at each spell and read over thier descriptions again and said:
"Transfer went from the user having to have their object concealed, to it just having to be small. Hypnosis went from having to have a spiral to hypnotize subjects, to only having to have something round."
He suddenly got excited as he thought about what spell he was going to get next.
"GG has already told me about how it can work. It's through a power system called... Aura. The building block of all living and dead things--superior to even the Atom. Aura is the life essence of everything and can be channeled for an infinite amount of incredible uses. GG only learned these weak spells by being on a planet with no Aura such as Earth. However, this planet may have much more Aura, making GG learn an actual Aura spell like the ability to shoot fireballs or something!"
Clearly, his human view of what fantastical magic should look like had biased his expectations.
Still, the mere thought of him gaining an actual Aura spell made him get ticklish in the stomach from excitement.
He was about to check out one last, very important, thing that GG had informed him about when he was caught off guard by a pebble thrown suddenly landing on his forehead.
He got rid of GG, furrowing his brows as he zoned his vision onto what was in front of him.
A green creature lunged out of what seemed to only be a bunch of bushes.
Tear stepped back, nearly tripping over his own foot and falling down.
"A leafling!?" He said fearfully. Clearly, he still had some PTSD from his last violent encounter.
"No... this thing is a--"
