"Today was rather gloomy huh"
said the boy walking in the rain under his umbrella.
His name was Alex Lawrence.Alex with his brown hair and dark hazel color eyes was on a bit of handsome side though,he never paid attention to it.
'As to for why he never paid or rather why he can't because he simply don't have time for it.He was an orphan.His parents died in an accident 3 years ago.
From then on he has to do everything alone.The only thing in his favour was his parents left him enough money to finish his high school.And for his basic and daily life needs he had to work for hours in his multiple part-time jobs.

"I'm home"he voiced out.
Though he know he would never get the reply he still voiced out.It was a habit ingrained in his mind as his mother would always to greet him back when she was alive.
*Sigh
He sighed as he closed the door and move towards the living room.As soon as got into the room.He laid down on the couch and released another sigh but this time it was of relief.Looking back from the ceiling to the right.He picked up the picture of his parents from the table.
"Hey mom,dad.Today was another very exhausting day ....." Alex started telling his parents about how his day went to how much he missed them. He couldn't stop the tears as they came when he recalled his parents memories.
"Ah, i should eat dinner" As he stopped crying, his stomach started growling making him remember how famished he was.
He was not in the mood of making anything today so he just ate cup noodles in his dinner.
After eating and taking a hot bath. He slumped down on his bed and started to do his favourite thing.
He started reading his favourite novel(HERO'S OF THE ARCANIA).It was a fantasy novel in which the protagonist (Leon Aekins) and his friends fight to save the world.
Yes,it was your typical cliche overpowered protagonist novel fighting the demon king and his minions. Also to maintain the balance there was not only the protagonist that was overpowered, there were many other individuals in human and other races who are on par with the antagonist of the story but let's leave that for another time.
The world ARCANIA is 5 times more bigger than the earth but it still had many similarities and differences from the earth. The similarity, food and fashion was mostly similar to earth but the difference, it was very much developed from the earth the teleport gates and virtual reality was normal there.
So, with this many interesting things Alex easily hooked onto it.Hell, he even used his savings to buy the new chapters and stock them up so he could read it in one fell swoop and because he had gotten a day off the next day for who knows in how much time Alex was thinking of reading it until it's finished.Thus,as the night goes on he started reading from where he left.
But Alex could not even imagine that this will be his last time reading.Before something truly unexpected and miraculous happened.
