The woman looks at him with a tearful expression; she starts to cry once again.
The people around them were watching in shock, they could not believe what they were seeing.
She once again wipes the tears from her eyes, takes a deep breath to calm herself down, and asks one of the people behind her, "What about that trash? Have you found any traces of him?"
She is shaking in anger, it seems that the person she is talking about earned her hatred.
Leon shivers as he feels the biting cold aura emanating from the beautiful woman in front of him.
'Killing intent!' He immediately knows what she is exuding, this is a very familiar aura to him.
Since his dad was once a captain of his former country's most renowned military troop, he had sensed a similar aura from his former comrades.
His nerves become tense, he cannot believe that he is sensing an aura comparable to and probably even stronger than the veterans that participated in some of the most brutal wars that his original world has.
'This world is much more dangerous than I expected! To think someone so young would develop such a powerful killing intent!'
He screams inwardly, he knows that this person in front of him has killed not only animals but also humans.
'What a very scary sister. I must be careful around her; she will definitely beat me to a pulp if I piss her off.' This thought flashes in his mind.
He whispers in the ears of a man that transformed into a huge dog.
"Who is she talking about? Looking at her face, she is incredibly angry at that person."
The man sighs and says. "He is your friend, he is a known trash that only hunts normal-grade worms in the outskirts of the Crystal Forest."
"I do not know how he did it, but he managed to get lucky and kill a variant of the Gluttonous Worm that is actually a supernatural-grade monster, and not only that, he even managed to obtain a soul blessing from it."
His tone is laced with jealousy, meanwhile, Leon's eyes start to twitch.
He takes a deep breath and asks. "What about his family? They should be ecstatic that he managed to obtain such lucky encounters."
He might not know half of the things the man has said, but he still asks this question, he must know the answer, as a foreboding bad feeling runs down his spine.
"That trash? Other than his crippled sister, he does not have any family members left." He sneers
"According to the information that we have gathered, it seems that his parents both perished in the third realm. It is a pity, there are only a couple of people in our sector that were capable of reaching the third realm."
'Yep, I am not the main character of this f*cking world. Looking at the people around me, it seems that I am a rich second generation that has befriended the unlucky lucky main character. If I were in a novel, I would definitely be a side character that only exists in the first couple of chapters before dying in the hands of some sort of monster, only for the main character to obtain some sort of lucky encounters after my death.'
Taking a deep breath, he tries to calm down his raging emotion, unfortunately, his hands that were shaking betrays him.
He quickly asks his most trusted companion, 'System, tell me, have I been transported into a world inside one of the novels I had read?'
[Negatively, there are an infinite number of universes around us, a multiverse that has different types of laws existing in their place. In this world, the system has discovered that there seems to be some sort of genetic evolution in the bodies of human beings.]
'Similar but not the same, unfortunately, there is still a chance that I might truly be a side character in the story of the main character's rise to greatness.'
He looks at the people around him, but looking at the beautiful woman in front of him, he shivers.
He seems to have realised something.
'No f*cking way! If I am not wrong, the story should have continued after the death of the original owner of this body. This beautiful but cold woman would chase the main character and try to confront him about her brother's death.'
'After a couple of ups and downs, she would fall in love with the main character.'
He asks the person besides him once again.
"Elcio, tell me honestly, is the person that my sister is talking about handsome?"
Elcio hesitates a little bit before answering.
"Actually, other than his low status and trash ability, everything about him is actually superb, including his appearance and intelligence, including his willpower."
"He even earned your respect, and you started calling him your leader after hunting with him a couple of times."
Leon finally accepted the fact that he is none other than some cannon fodder side character that only serves as the main character's subordinate.
With his status, the latter is capable of selling some of the stuff that he luckily found without retaliation from the major forces.
Not only that, he would also be a bridge that would connect his beautiful and cold sister to the main character, leaving him with nothing but some background character that would die at the first hint of danger.
He is smiling outwardly but inwardly, he is cursing loudly.
His former life is already pitiful enough, but even in this life, he is cursed with nothing bad luck.
He is born with incredible luck, is rich, and has doting family members, only to suffer for the rest of his life after reaching adulthood.
It seems that this is the case for this life.
He clenches his fist tightly, and he might be smiling in front of everyone, but he swears in his mind that he will not be helpless anymore, not in this life.
'But first, I must prevent this girl, my sister, from messing with the main character. I might not like him for our fates, but this does not mean I want to suffer from the retaliation of his luck. I still need to grow stronger, which can go against fate itself! '
He coughs out loud, garnering the attention of the people around him.
He smiles and says. "Miss, I mean, sister, I think that you should not hurt my friend. Can't we just return home first? I am still confused by everything. I want to know a lot about myself, and hurting my friend might make me feel pained and sad."
He tries to act as pitiful as possible, he opted for the technique that he always used with his grandpa with his now-sister.
He is embarrassed that he is using this method as a grown man, but what can he do in his current situation?
The beautiful woman takes a deep breath, her anger still does not dissipate, but she knows that his words might hold some truth amongst them.
She nods her head in agreement and brings him to a location where a giant portal-like gate is situated.
His eyes widen, he cannot believe what he is seeing, but upon watching the reactions of the people around him, he forces himself to calm down, but his shaking body betrays him.
His sister senses this, and her expression becomes worried.
She quickly asks, "Are you okay, Carl? You are shivering; are you feeling cold? Is something bothering you?"
'D*mn! My sister actually cares about me as much as my grandfather does! It seems that as long as I survive this life, I do not need to be worried about my happiness!'
Just as this thought flashes in his head, he quickly crushes it.
'No! This mindset is what brought you to your downfall! Remember your original life!'
He takes a deep breath and shakes his head, indicating to his sister that he is okay.
In his original life, he always relied on his grandfather's reputation to live a spoiled life.
He might not be as debaucherous as the most wealthy second generation because of his grandfather's influence, but he is similar in some aspects of his lifestyle.
"Young mistress, the young lord lost his memories, it seems that even such basic knowledge about the portal gate has disappeared from his brain, according to some studies that I have learned, sudden memory loss is caused by some sort of trauma." whispers the lady knight.
The beautiful woman clenches her fist tightly.
She whispers to Emily, "I want you to secretly search for that trash and ask him about what happened to their hunt. We might be unable to kill him because of my brother's request, but this does not mean that we cannot teach him a lesson."
Emily nods her head.
If Leon discovers that his earlier action caused his sister to change her mind again, he will definitely be speechless.
For him, the trash that everyone is talking about is the main character of this world.
They entered the portal, and while everyone is calm about such a situation, he, on the other hand, is actually deeply afraid.
Since everyone is not perturbed by this whole affair, he can only swallow his words and brace himself.
When they passed through the portal, everyone quickly stepped away from him, but seeing that he was fine, everyone was surprised.
Emily was a little bit dizzy, but other than her, everyone seemed to be acting relatively normal.
"Young master, are you fine?" Asks Elcio.
Leon is confused, but he still answers his question with a nod.
He did not feel anything strange after passing through the portal, but looking at everyone's reaction, it seems that he should feel something.
'System, do you have any idea regarding what had happened?'
[As a theory, the portal that the host passes through causes slight nausea for those that have not adapted to its energy and laws.]
'If this is the case, why am I not affected? I am pretty sure that this is the first time I've encountered such a thing.'
[The system is created to counter the destructive capability of a black hole; a stable space such as the portal will not affect the host whatsoever.]
He sighs in relief, smiles at everyone, and asks. "Are we not going back home?"
His sister narrows her eyes at him, taking out some sort of compass.
After seeing its reaction, she heaves a sigh of relief, smiles, and nods her head.
She then brings him to a giant mansion.
Leon is speechless, utterly dumbfounded by the things he has seen—flying cars, multiple 3D advertisement videos, and giant advanced infrastructure—and he cannot help but want to slap himself for assuming that he was sent into a somewhat barbaric world.
'Hell! This world is much more advanced than my world, if they have such technological advancement, why is that stronghold in that other dimension so outdated?'
'No use in overthinking, I must fill up my brain with knowledge regarding this world, but first, I must know my current family. Fortunately, my sister does not know about my current situation and does not doubt my so-called identity.'
As they enter the mansion, his sister approaches a man wearing a butler outfit. "Uncle Iruh, are our parents home?"
"I apologise, young mistress, but Lord Arnold and Lady Rosenneta are both still in the third realm, they might be unable to come home for a couple of months because of the invasion of Ashuras."
The beautiful woman can only sigh, she does not blame them, she only nods her head and brings Leon to his room.
Seeing such a wide room, the latter cannot help but be utterly shocked.
'D*mn! This family is richer than my former family, is this just a bedroom? This looks like a f*cking living room!'
Seeing his reaction, a look of sadness flashes in his sister's eyes.
