The Real Monster 2 Call To Another World Ii

I have lost count of how many times I have fainted and awakened by the pain. To wake up and lose consciousness from the same source, that's a first for me. However, I think its already done. I don't feel especially good or sore, just peaceful I guess?

And then there's the Guardian of Gates. I know he's still there. Just watching me. It's been a few hours now that I have not fainted and felt pain again, I don't know how long it took to finish this process, but I know he's there. You're there right, Imhoteph?

[Yes. Congratulations on overcoming that stage of your evolution. Now, I have done my part. I will let you go and proceed to your next destination. If nothing else; you'd directly be transported to your otherworld. Might I remind you that your abilities are not to be underestimated, so use them with caution and prudence. Also, never mention me or my name in any way to anyone. That is all. It was nice meeting you..]

When he finished speaking up to that point, I felt my binds undone, buy my eyes were still bound. I felt like I was floating so I began flailing. Then my eyes' binds were taken off and I could open it, but that was after I heard Imhoteph's voice one last time as if to finish his previous sentence..

[...Lord Clay.]

Then my senses totally came back to me and I found myself in a room.. without anything in it. Just a pure white! What is this?! How come I'm not waking up to an "unfamiliar ceiling" setting?! Dammit! Don't tell me I'll have to go through that again? That pain! No way!

So I took a look around the room and found no one there. I said, "h.e.l.lo? Is anyone there? Where am I? Am I dead?"

Setting up the flag was always good right?

[Silly, you're not dead. I just intercepted the summoning to grant you your ability, your cheat, so to say. You see, usually, when they summon a hero, he would have power that would be way above the average of that world. So I will grant you my divine blessing. Of course, you don't know who I am so let me first introduce myself. I am who they'd call the G.o.d of humanity.]

[In the otherworld, there would be 5 different other G.o.ds. Namely the G.o.d of beastmen; G.o.d of elves; G.o.d of demons; G.o.d of dwarves; and G.o.d of dragons, while I am as I have introduced, the G.o.d of humanity.]

[Together we are the Six Pillars of Faith for Alleucanth. The world where you will be coming to.]

"Wait, wait. So yo summarize what we'll be discussing, you the G.o.d of humanity need someone to be your champion because you are on the losing side of your little game with the other G.o.ds is that the gist of it?"

A sarp glint appeared on the eyes of this G.o.d of humanity. He did not introduce his name, I wonder why.

"So may I ask, what the name of your eminence, is?" A flattering voice and fake smile. I don't think I'd be intercepted twice in a row for one summoning. And if this G.o.d is to subject me to pain again, I will not stand for it.

[You are a sharp human being. I think I really lucked up and fetched the best candidate huh?]

[I am called Safir. And I would advise you not to utter my name carelessly in the otherworld, because my name has enough power to cause a small scale mana burst. Just cautioning you.]

[Anyway, as sharp as you are, you're wrong on one account. I did not summon you because I am on the losing side. In fact it were all going according to plan and the game was going in my direction, however, the other G.o.ds claimed that I cheated and gave the humans too much of an advantage and demanded that to be fair, they want to summon heroes for their own advantage. So I called it unfair instead and I also summoned a hero for my self, which has now become you.]

[So basically, you will go there and be the champion of I, Safir and make me win this game of war.]

[For that, you will need abilities aside from your sharp perception. I need your body to be accustomed to the otherworld just as the others would have their own heroes. So I will grant your body the ability to anything that you set your eyes on. Meaning, nothing will escape your eyes. If you want to know information about anything or anyone, you will just have to look at them.]

[Furthermore, I will grant your body an ability that most summoned people are so enthusiastic about! MAGIC! I will make your body able to do any kind of magic and your status will also be above the average! Rejoice my champion!]

"YESSSS! MAGIC!"

I had to rejoice. This is magic we're talking about. Although this G.o.d is p.i.s.sing me off with his speech and this game they're playing with us as pieces, magic is romance! So I'll let it slide this time.

[...odd.]

"Hmm? What's the matter majestic Safir?"

[It's odd that I cannot read your mind.]

"Read my mind? Isn't that a bit rude, even for a G.o.d?"

[Rude? I AM A G.o.d, nothing is rude or too much for me. Anyway, it does not matter whether I am capable or not of reading your thoughts. A mere human champion will not have power to defy me.]

He laughed like an evil person. What the h.e.l.l kind of G.o.ds am I dealing with here? He's like a full-on child that is enjoying his toy.

[No matter, I need to instruct you how to access your status. Only you are able to see it, so it's not something to worry about. Even G.o.ds cannot see it. Taka a looke for yourself.]

He then instructed me on how to access my status. Overall, it's just a bunch of numbers and it couldn't even show me the abilities that Imhoteph has granted. Sigh. Although that ability is very good to have as well, I should be able to make use of that ability well.

[Hae you seen your abilities now? You should be grateful for it. Lastly, I will make your body able to adapt to any cla.s.s or job that you may have in the otherworld. Meaning, you will learn skills faster that way. For example, to advance swordsmanshp, you will have to have 100 mastery points to make it level up, however, with this last blessing, you will only have to get 25 points before it levels up. Isn't it awesome?]

"Wow! It's awesome. You are a very generous G.o.d Safir."

[Of course. Now that all of that has been arranged, I will now send you to your original destination. Good luck; my champion!]

Somehow I'm having a de javu experience here. Please don't tell me I'll get intercepted again?

"Thank you." I still had to thank the G.o.d. As pompous as he sounded.

Without further ado, I felt my body turn lighter and lighter and a bright light enveloped my body. The next thing I knew, I was kneeling on a stone floor with steam rising all over my surroundings, obscuring my sight. I'm pretty sure those of the people surrounding me as well. I feel presences around me. While there is steam-cover, shall I move away?

[Go and incapacitate him at once! We need to make sure we are at an advantage when speaking to him later!]

I could hear a voice with an ordering tone. I couldn't understand the first few words but after the sixth or seventh word he uttered, I could understand it like it was my natural tongue. How curious. This must be the effect of that adaptable body that Safir gifted my has. And as if trying to tell me proudly that it is:

*Ping!*

[Language Acquisition - Basic acquired]

A few seconds of suspense, the summoning circle finally showed up and I could see it clearly. Gasps could be heard around the place as they saw noting at the center. In this kind of situation, according to my fantasy knowledge, summoned beings would have a down time which would make them vulnerable for a few seconds to minutes at most, fresh from being summoned. I recovered from that quite quickly as I have my abilities right?

The spears that they readied and the club that one person was wielding looked to me like they really were going to make me go unconsious and then try and brainwash me of some sort at a later time when I wake up. Telling me a lie that I was summoned and lost consciousness then taken somewhere to recuperate from the summoning's side effect. Well, it's good that I have Deadpull's Regeneration huh? If not, I'd have been vulnerable to becoming a slave or whatever. I'm not really hiding as well. I just moved away but because they were so focused on my arrival, their eyes are glued to the magic circle.

Finally, after a few seconds of shock, they started looking around and found someone unfamiliar among them. They shouted and as a reflex pointed their spears at me. The authoritarian from earlier then ordered again.

[Cease your action men! This must be the summoned one. Are you able to understand me?]

"..." However, let me play dumb for now and hear what he really wants to say.

[Oh, you cannot understand us. That's good. We'll have the princess impart to you the language later, but for now, stay puzzled you slave.]

He was talking to me with a smile and gentle gestures that would calm anyone else had they seen it, while spewing vile-full lines. Tsk. This guy's bad news. However, that princess he spoke about might not be. Let's hear what else he has to say but oh~

"Language Acquisition - Advanced acquired]

Hahaha! This is so d.a.m.n OP! Just listening to this m.o.f.o is giving me skills I would have to work for a long time to acquire huh? Well then, speak to your hearts content Evil Summoner A. That's your priority designation now, m.o.f.o!

[Well then, slave, follow that servant beside you and take a rest. The dumb little princess shall be the one to enslave you, Fufufu]

He then gestured towards the girl in maid clothes just behind me. So I stared at him and continued to shift my stare from him to the maid to reinforce my acting. Then the maid gestured to follow her and I did. Phew! That was a very edgy situation. What if they put collars on me to indicate I was a s,ave or make me a slave after becoming unconscious huh? It's really dangerous. Just like that G.o.d Safir, the humans here are suffering from superiority complex that's not healthy. This is a bad place to be in at the moment. I don;t know how strong I am to defend myself as well. If only I were to see my real status,

And as if wanting to boast again:

Name: Clay

Cla.s.s: Hero «Transcendent»

Sub-Cla.s.s: None «Alchemy Master»

t.i.tle: Hero «Alchemy Master»

Stats:

[STR - Rare «Unique»] [INT - Rare «Unique»]

[MGC - Rare «Unique»] [DEX - Rare «Unique»]

Skills:

«Alchemy Master» «Regeneration» «Cryptonian Gene»

[Observe] [Language Acquisition - Advanced] [Human Language - Advanced]

Blessing:

«Guided by the Guide to Souls» [Safir's Champion]

Status: Normal «Optimal»

Seeing my status, the real one this time, I could not help but to open my mouth in shock. The maid was walking ahead of me and so did not see me, I hope. I noticed that the specifics for the stats were written in words instead of numbers that they were earlier, what could have happened? I wonder if Rare is strong? But by its side is another valuation, Unique. What's the difference? I noticed that those on the brackets were something Safir gifted, then those on the double angle quotations should be Imhoteph's right?

For now, I should put these aside. I know how powerful the abilities Imhoteph granted aside from Alchemy Master as this ability has quite a lot of sub-skills. Putting these thoughts aside, I looked around even as we were walking towards a direction, led by the maid. I'm sure I'm being led to a living quarters of some sort for myself or that of the princess that the Evil Summoner A called dumb.

A few minutes of walking quite a long way from the initial position, I was not getting tired physically, instead I was annoyed at how long this maid is going to keep me going around in circles. Does she want to make me lose my way so that I can't fine my way out if anything happens? If that's her goal, I should stop here now right? But I'm not supposed to be able to understand or speak their language for now, so how do we go about it? Le'ts stop following her for now. So I stopped on my track and she notices that. Her face grew a bit pale, evidence of her orders. It seems she's nervous that I won't go according to their plans. I can't blame her as her life is forfeit if she disobeys huh?

I'm tired, mentally. Tired of winding around the place. I don't like it. It's like they want to bide their time. I'm sure they know that the longer I am kept alive and free, the slimmer their chance of deceiving me or enslaving me. They don't know about my Cryptonian Gene so they'd never antic.i.p.ate that the longer I am exposed to sunlight, the stronger I will become. However, they do know that the longer they keep me unable to understand their language, the higher the change for them to deceive me. Tough luck for them, I already acquired their language. Now, should I wait for them to come to me? Since I don't want to keep walking around and around, let's sit in a corner and close our eyes. That'd provoke them to stop this nonsense.

The maid was making a very ugly face as if she became even more nervous as time pa.s.sed that I did not move. I tried talking to her in my tongue:

"Hey, hey! If you got orders I understand, so just stay with me until they come for me okay? I'm tired of walking in circles." And as expected, she heard me speak and did not understand what I meant.

[What do I do? What do I do? This man has to be taken to princess' quarters but the chancellor told me to keep him going in circles to make him lose his sense of direction. Now he's just sitting there. How do I tell him it's only a few more rooms away?]

The maid mumbled. Confident that I would not be able to hear her or understand her. So that was the plan. I'm spot on huh? But the room is only a few rooms away? I wonder how she'll handle it.

Let's stay seated for now.

Finally, after a few seconds of contemplation, she found her courage and gestured grandly to me with hands pointing towards one of the rooms. AS if to tell me that the princess' room was right there. And as a good little rabbit that I am, I looked towards the direction she pointed at and widened my eyes. To show her I understood her intention.

So I stood up and walked towards that room in a hurry leaving her behind. However, as I reached that room, the guards outside said room reacted to me coming into the door's proximity negatively. As if I was a criminal who is restricted from coming close to that door. It kinda annoyed me, as the order they should have been given were to allow me into the princess' room from the start to meet her. However, I also understood their 'other' orders. How annoying really. So I stopped just before the guards who were holding to the hilt of their swords. The maid made it in time and placated the situation. After a few exchange of words which were about their orders and orders, they finally let me in.

Inside the room I observed a few nice things, namely the bed chamber, the beautifully hung curtains and the especially beautiful princess. She'd totally be the hottest idol in any country on earth if she were ever discovered there.

A small but rounded face along that sharp chin, just lime in anime heroines. Her long silky smooth legs that peek out of that slitted princess dress perfectly wrapping her body to provoke desire for it. Rosy red lips that invites one to be hungry as if if looking at an apple after starving for days and just steal it. Eyes that glow with clear blue shine as if looking into the depths of the sea and flowing hair as if a field of ready to harvest wheat. I was mesmerized, capture by that beauty.
