Chapter 2
“Shit…..It fucking hurts”
This was Kevin Reid’s first thought upon waking up. It felt as if there was a cut on his head, hurting so badly that it seemed as if his head was about to split open.
The scene in front of him seemed like he was riding on a horse carriage. His body continued to bounce up and down along with the carriage’s movement, impacting his wound. It was so painful that Kevin inadvertently cursed.
“Awww.Fuck”
Grabbing his head again and opening his eyes, he surveyed his surroundings.
What filled his vision were walls formed from hollowed planks. There were also quite a few fair-haired and blue-eyed youths sitting around him with their eyes closed as they rested. However, none of them glanced in his direction.
He seemed to be lying down on the floor. Feeling the ice-cold ground underneath him, Kevin had a felling that his body would not be able to bear lying down any longer, or he would probably catch a cold. He hurriedly struggled to get up.
At that moment, he felt a sharp pain lancing through his head.
The pain arrived suddenly, and brought many strange memories along with it. Kevin’s eyes rolled back as he fainted.
“Hi! Leylin! Wake up….”
Kevin heard this sound in his daze, and couldn’t help but open his eyes.
“Have I reincarnated?” Kevin was beyond confused, added with his headache it was torturous for him to think straight.
He was a Science student at the top of college, He was a pretty antisocial person, and sometimes it was recognized as his arrogance. One day by mistake he offended the renowned Playboy of the college Drake Henry , son of a board member. Angered by Kevin arrogance he got some thugs to beat him up, They surrounded him on his way home on the streets. Kevin was no pushover himself and retaliated, one thing lead to another and at last Drake pulled a Gun and in the heat of the moment shot Kevin.
It was impossible to dodge, Kevin was shot, But beyond angered he still didn’t register the pain, he jumped at Drake, grabbed him and jumped before a Truck, killing both of them in the process.
“Sigh….. I died for such a dumb thing ” Kevin was surprised at his own stupidity, He let anger get to him and ruin himself, for a man that claim to follow rationality he was quite an hypocrite there.
Kevin sat down trying to organise the new memories in his mind, Kevin gained some insight about his body and this world.
This was a realm similar to the European Middle Ages. A mysterious force also existed.
His current body was originally called Leylin Farlier, a son of a minor noble. As he had been tested to have the gift to become a Magus, his father, Viscount John Farlier, had pulled strings to allow him to become a Magus Apprentice. At the moment, he was on the horse carriage travelling towards a magus academy.
“WTF…. I reincarnated in Warlock of the Magus World, I…..I am Leylin” Kevin was beyond shocked and excited, He may be a model student but he loves reading novel, especially Warlock of the Magus World, Leylin Farlier was his favorite fictional character of all time.
His love for this Novel was intense, At one point he even wanted to get his Uncle who is a director to make a Series on it. He failed obviously but one can see his love for WMW.
He looked up and saw that the one who had woken him up was a large, male youth.
He had thick eyebrows and large eyes, a tall and straight nose, and sparkling gold hair. Although his face was somewhat young and tender, his body was sturdy and well muscled, looking extremely manly.
Seeing that Leylin had awoken, the boy laughed happily , “Haha….Leylin, you’re finally awake. If you had awoken even a few more minutes later, you probably wouldn’t have been able to make it to dinner. I assume that you don’t want to starve!”
Kevin lowered his eyes , hard press to contain his excitement, ‘ I am really here, this is where the plot started, He is George, he was useful till leylin reaches the port , but his future is bleak as just a mere Acolyte ‘
“Thanks George!”
Leylin expressed his gratitude before George. Although he is not very useful later , He is nevertheless an important Help for him now.
Then suddenly Kevin thought of the Family Heirloom given by John Farlier, for him to pay the entrance fee.
The ring!
Kevin eyes narrowed, and his right hand involuntarily went to his chest.
Under his clothing, he could feel the solid touch, like a metal ring was under the clothes.
‘ It can get me to get inside the academy, although it was perceived as a treasure in the beginning it was just a broken low-grade Artifact ‘
“What are you thinking about?” George asked.
“No… Nothing!” Kevin quickly shook his head, then clutched his head again, as it was still in pain.
“Are you okay? ”
“Well I am not dead so, yeah I am okay ” Kevin looked at George with a calm and knowing gaze.
“Who asked you to offend my goddess. Offending her is still fine, as bros, I am not such a petty person. Alas, the entire carriage is now treating you like an enemy, and I do not want to be isolated as well!”
Kevin knew he was talking about that hot babe Bessita, ‘I don’t have time to worry about these nobodies, When Leylin was a Magus , She wilfully ask to serve him. My biggest concern for now is how to gain enough strength to protect myself, I cannot afford a slip up or it’s game over ‘
Kevin know clear enough how dangerous this world can be, there is many unforseen mysterious things that can easily kill him, hek… if one of those Rank 4 want, They can wipe out this area populace in a moment.
Kevin touched his chest and felt his fast beating heart ‘ even if I know how dangerous it is, why am I so excited, why do I fell so amazing, like this is what I wanted all the time. This excitement I am not Kevin Reid …..From this day I am Leylin Farlier’ Kevin had a silly grin on his face as thought.
“What are you smiling about” George asked confused at seeing his sudden mood change.
“Nothing”
After talking some more with Leylin and giving him the medicine George excused himself from the Carriage. Leylin used the medicine and stay put on his spot not going for lunch.
Leylin made a determined face and with resolution and expectations called out Leylin Farlier biggest Helper.
A.I. Chip
[Beep]
Leylin’s eyes widened when he heard the mechanical voice in his brain.
“This is?” Leylin heart skipped a beat, although he held expectations, he was still stunned to find A. I. Chip with him.
The only reason Feng Meng had the chip was because he was from a developed Earth with that technology but Kevin didn’t come from there , He was shocked to know that, even still he had the chip.
Leylin found it hard to believe. He said in his brain, “A.I. Chip! Scan my mind and search for locations of assistant systems!”
[Beep! Scan complete! No strange existences were found in the Host’s mind!]
After a mere moment, the A.I. Chip’s mechanical voice replied back.
“Now scan my entire body, and display my body’s stats!”
Another mechanical sound.
[Beep! Scan complete!] [Kevin Reid(Leylin Farlier). Strength: 0.4, Agility: 0.5, Vitality: 0.4, Status: Bleeding from back of the head, many injuries to the soft tissues] [No A.I. Chip present in the Host’s body!]
A 3D hologram appeared before Leylin’s eyes. It displayed Leylin’s own body and showed stats on the side.
“It looks to be the same as in novel, although I don’t remember it all, there is no difference big enough to be of any concern ”
A. I.Chip has only two functions: to analyze and to store information. Even with that, it’s an amazing Goldfinger because as he Rank up the Chip capabilities also increase.
After confirming the A. I Chip existence, Leylin went out to get something to eat , He scanned all the people with his A. I. Chip , Even though he knew that leylin was pretty weak comparable to a little girl , he was still upset to see it with his own eyes. He took his bread ‘which tasted awful’ , ignored the taunts and quickly retreat back to Carriage.
Later, Bessita came to give him a bottle of ‘medicine’ , which he just threw out since he knows of its content.
Leylin went down to the important task for now, to get strong, he knows there will be a deadly encounter later, so he needs to be prepared.
“A.I. Chip! Scan the entirety of Leylin’s memory and arrange it!”
[Beep! Task Established! Starting arrangement!]
…
[Data sorting has been completed!] The A.I. Chip notification sounded out.
“Create a new file, named ‘Leylin Farlier’, and save it!” Leylin gave a new order.
[Beep! File created – Leylin Farlier!]
“New task, search the file for all possible methods for the host to improve strength quickly!”
[Beep! Task Established. Begin Search!]
In front of Leylin, innumerable amounts of data flashed past, seemingly forming a beautiful picture.
[Search Complete! Search Results – 453 methods!]
Leylin knew that very few were actually feasible. “Remove those with estimated success rate of 50% and below for the Host. Also, add another requirement: The Host must be able to carry out the strengthening method now. Begin filter!”
[Beep! Filter Complete. Remaining methods: 2!]
“Optimize Knight Meditation Technique and send it’s data to me ”
Leylin then learned the optimized Knight Meditation Technique, and spent most of his time in later days, in increasing his strength , he also tested a lot of herbs and plants along the way to increase the database of A. I. Chip.
He also had a confrontation with Ourin and his gang earning him 3 Magic Crystal and a Cross Blade.
He spared a lot with George too, immediately gaining his approval and joining his circle to gain support in coming Death Battle Royal against the Beasts.
