First Step

It was five year since Lenin was born into the village and he was already well known throughout the village as a little monster. Of course, these simple-minded villagers didn't mind this anomaly known as Falis.

Today was Lenin's fifth birthday in this new world. After that fifth month, he found out that his body was maturing way too fast. So fast that even his common sense was overturned. Even though his parents didn't treat him any different he can tell they were also a little freaked out by his growth.

He couldn't really blame them since anyone would freak out if their 1 year old turns into a 5-year-old. Even among the other five-year-old kids, he was quite strong. As for how he knew this, well, let's just say he used the scientific method.

The good thing was he stopped growing after that initial growth spurt. This also brought another issue. The possibility that this was where he stopped growing forever. Ofcourse only time would tell.

Another strange phenomenon about his life so far was the dreams he keeps having. Even if he was an idiot he would still realize these were not merely some dreams. They might even be why he was growing so much.

It was still the same woman who gave him the honey-like substance when he was a baby but now, however, she keeps saying these strange words which didnt sound like anything he's ever heard of. Every day it would be the same same words over and over again. He even tried to repeate the words to his dad but he treat it like it was just some kid gibberish.

Since today was his fifth birthday the whole house was in a very high spirit. This was especially true for Lenin. Not only was it his birthday, but it was also the day his father teaches him how to cultivate.

Oh, right this was a huge discovery he made. In this world, humans could cultivate as well as animals. His father has said that once a person cultivates they can become immortals. This statement would've made him laugh if he heard it in his previous life but now he was literally able to believe anything mystical that comes his way.

Even if someone said unicorns exist it won't be that hard to believe. Hell even if it had 2 heads and 4 tails it won't be as strange as him literally reincarnating.

"Ok, Falis the first step in cultivation is being able to feel the qi in the air. Close your eyes and try to get 'air' to enter your body. As soon as you feel a tingling sensation in your body tell me alright?" Owens instructed Lenin and since he didn't hear Lenin reply he added. "It's okay if you don't feel it. It normally takes people 2- 3 months to feel it. I was such a genius that..."

Thud!

Before Owen could even finish he saw Lenin falling to the ground for no apparent reason. "Falis!!"

When Lenin regained consciousness the first thing he heard was Rae yelling.

"I told you this was a bad idea, didn't I!! Now look at my baby" this was the very first time Lenin has seen his mother mad at anyone.

"mom" when the couple heard his voice they immediately came to his side. " oh my baby are you feeling alright?" Rae said with a lot of concern.

"I'm fine mom," Lenin said and even sat up. He wasn't lying either, in fact, he was more than alright.

"Falis, can you tell me what happened?" Owen asked after making sure Lenin was alright.

"When you said to feel the air and make it enter your body, I did that. Then I felt something pouring into my body making me faint." Lenin answered honestly.

"What!!" Owen yelled hysterically. Even Rae was stunned. "Are you sure you felt something entering your body?"

Lenin just nodded.

"Haha! This means Lenin was able to feel qi on his first try. " Owen had a proud expression on his face. As the greatest genius of the village, it took him a bit over a month to feel qi. It was no wonder he was so hysterical. " I'll have to go see the Village chief and tell him about this"

Owen left in high spirit leaving the confused Lenin on the bed. ' It's so easy tho, I don't even know why it's so surprising. '

When Lenin closed his eyes it wasn't the usual darkness that welcomed him. Instead, it was lumps of blue light filling up where his eyes could see. it was one of the most beautiful sights he has ever witnessed in his entire life.

When he tried to feel the lump of blue light right in front of him he realizes he couldn't physically touch it at all.

"what are you doing Falis"

Lenin opened his eyes to see that his mother was looking at him with a questioning look. " oh nothing mom just stretching."
