(Chapter 2)

Shyrveen's interest was piqued after staring at the teleportation device but can't only shake his head for he cannot understand a little bit about it and then he was blinded by a light and after several seconds he was blinking his eyes for a few times if he's really back, back to the same room that he was living for six months in this country...

But he felt... Nothing... He missed how funny and happy it was when his family was still alive... He missed their smiles, bantering, parent's sermons and love that he received when he was shy about it and acting angry to make it stop since he was big back then...

The warmth of their smiles while greeting him with hugs at the door the moment he came from school, mostly his little sister's smile. 'How big you are now, Kuya?' She asked.

He was intended to ask her what she means but the smiles became malicious and grabs his head pull it hard to get closer to her face that is bleeding from all of her orifices and shouted while laughing. 'Hahaha! Big!? You left us behind and saved yourself! So much big you are now! That you can only save your oneself! Hahaha! We won't stop haunting you until you die!!!'

Shyrveen snaps up from his bed while sweating profusely while grabbing his head harshly. Once he realized it, he let his hair go and stared at the strands of the hair that was pulled out from his head and smiled bitterly... 'I won't stop you all...'

And looked to the clock that hanging on the wall that is saying it's past three o'clock in the midnight. With the nightmare strikes again, he can't sleep anymore and stands up to fetch water to drink.

His heart finally calmed down after a few minutes and stared at the ceiling that room was covered by darkness... 'Since I can't sleep again. I better check if what happened to me was real...' He closed his eyes and thinks about the Gene Points and the voice resounded again in his mind while appearing his status, it more like a sudden knowledge than the system windows that he read from some novels.

Shyrveen Yñiguez: Not evolved

Status: None

Life span: 200 Years

Required for evolution: 100 Geno Points

Geno points gained: 13 Ordinary Geno Points

Beast souls gained: None

'So it's real...' Shyrveen can only thought while feeling nothing again. As if this is just a normal occurrence in his life. 'Han Sen said that it's better to max the four types of Geno Points before taking the path of evolution to go to the next God's Sanctuary; the Second Sanctuary, since where I was transported was the First Sanctuary for all the humans to go when it's their first time... But only to appear at random shelters and so, that's why no one knows his identity outside of the sanctuary till the time I met him from the day that he became a laughing stock with the woman named Qin Xuan... Shapeshifting ability... They're not that far from being Hunters... I should try to take another test if I can be a full pledge Hunter now...' He repeated what Han Sen said to him and went to the conclusion at the last while focusing his mind to the Ordinary Gene Points.

After five hours of doing nothing, except the earlier basic exercises and training his Arnis, Eskrima and Kali that he finally decided to go. 'It's Sunday so there's no school. I can go to the Hunter's Association...'

Because the first thing he did after stepping in this country was to take a test for E-Rank Hunter but only to be told that there's already a law about having no E-Rank Hunter without Magic Power can fight to the frontline unless he's one of the military soldiers, and so he declined to have the Hunter status if he can't get what he wants in the first place.

Shyrveen reached the reception desk and ask for the retest for Hunter License. "Please, touch the Magic Power Detector..." But this time, he expects that the Geno Points he got will indicate to him that he has the magic power that he needs at last.

"I'm sorry, sir. You do not have magic power but you can still be-" The receptionist said and tells him the same thing six months ago and so he raised his right hand to interrupts her and smiled at the receptionist bitterly and said. "It's fine. Thank you and I'm sorry for the inconvenience." And left the association's building and looks at the sky.

After several seconds of standing in front of the building, he finally decided to go home and seek the power that brought him to the new world called God's Sanctuary...

On his way to his apartment, he saw the neighbor Sung Family.

The Weakest Hunter of the world 'E-Rank Sung Jin-Woo' that changes drastically physically... 'I can only say about him is that... He has the luck that the above saw his hard work for multiple times risking his life diving in the dungeon... And now... Publicly, he is now known to be the tenth S-Rank Hunter of South Korea... The dangerous aura he brings is really above those monsters from B-Rank Gate that I faced or simply, the monsters that hunted me but...' After all, he, Shyrveen, survived from such monsters for the fifth time he was in the Philippines...

"Oh, Oppa!" Sung Jin-Ah, the little sister of Sung Jin-Woo greeted him while waving her hand as she saw him passing by.

"Hello." He can only greet back and socialize for the sake of 'peaceful' surroundings...

"This is Oppa Shyr that helped me a lot of times when Oppa was working as a Hunter, Omma." She introduced me to his big brother and to the woman who I think is in her mid-forties...

"Thank you for helping my daughter, Mr. Shyr."

"No, no! It's okay, Ajhummeoni..."

"And this is my Oppa that I'm talking about with you for a couple of times Oppa Shyr." Sung Jin-Ah said cheerfully as she hugs the arm of Sung Jin-Woo.

"Nice to meet you, Hunter-nim."

"No, no. You're two years older than me, Hyung-nim."

"If we all gonna be humble all day, we won't have time to eat lunch." Said jokingly by Park Kyung-Hae, the mother of the Sung siblings, to all of them.

"I'm sorry to say that I must reject your invitation, Ajhummeoni. For there's a thing that I really need to do today." Shyrveen respectfully declined and bowed towards them. "Good day, everyone." And he walks away.

Sung Jin-Woo stared at the man while scrunching his forehead for he can't find the right word for how he felt around Shyrveen. It is not dangerous but a little weird that can be dangerous as well... Well, not for him but for his family.

"Oppa! What's wrong?"

"Nothing. How long did you know him?"

"Hmmm... Five months ago? Or around. Why?"

"Just be careful around him."

"Nah. You're just being paranoid about him, Oppa. Did you felt something weird that can't be explained?"

Sung Jin-Woo raised an eyebrow to her as he waits for his little sister to continue.

"I felt it too for three months that I'd talk with him. For now, he seems a good person so don't worry too much about it. Add that he is the one who is doing that avoiding excuses for multiple times already. Maybe he is shy?"

"Okay, kids. Stop gossiping at the young man. Your mother is hungry you know."

"Alright, Omma~" Sung Jin-Ah cheerfully agreed.

Shyrveen reached his apartment two blocks away from the house of the Sung Family. As he closed and locked the door. His aura of being an average man was gone and gone back to his ten years self. A person who lost everything except for the guilt that he can only feel now...

He stared at his palms and sighed in resignation. 'Really hard to act like a normal person with this curse because of my sin...' And remember the nightmares of his family and smiled bitterly.

He shook his head and put this thought back to the corner of his mind and think about the new world.

'If these Geno Points can't emit Magic Power then... Wait... Ability of Hunters and the ability of Beast Soul is still the same, right?... Maybe, Beast Soul can emit Magic Power... I must go back to the God's Sanctuary to bring one and take a retest... But how?...'

Shyrveen thinks all the possibilities for how to go back to the new world but he can't deduce a single thing for why, what, when is the right time for all-day...

After six days of doing his routine: archery training, language studying in school, part-time work, and home. Nothing happens and he just arrived at his apartment and cook his dinner and do all the things before he went to his bed to sleep...

But the moment he is falling on his bed, the scenery changed back again to the familiar forest and to the same spot when he arrived at the sanctuary before he completely fell to the ground while wearing his pajama... 'You got to be kidding me...' The only he can say in his thought as he quickly stands up.

Shyrveen looks at his clothes and his surroundings. 'If someone saw me in this, I'm sure I'll be a laughing stock... Better go back to the creek and eat some Black Beetle.'

He went to the same creek where he and Han Sen met but only this time that he is alone. He shrugs and hunts some Black Beetle and uses the sharp edges of the stone since he doesn't have a dagger or weapon at him.

'I need to compile what I thought about this sudden teleportation from my world to this world... So far, I can say that it will be once every week around the same time... And add that when I got back to my world, it only passed less than one hour while I'm sure that I and Han Sen spent almost three hours before we separate... Time dilation in a ratio 1:3 in favor of the sanctuary?...'

He thought as he continues eating the meat of Black Beetle until he got the voice notice in his mind saying. 'Ordinary creature Black Beetle killed. Beast Soul of Ordinary Black Beetle gained. Eat the flesh of Ordinary Black Beetle to gain 0 to 10 Geno Points randomly.'

'Hmm? Beast Soul!?... I should check first... Then... Black Beetle Armor...'

After thinking about the Black Beetle creatures appearance, a black shadow shot out of thin air, looking exactly like the Black Beetle. Then it flew to Shyrveen's chest, turned into a black liquid and started to cover his whole body. In the blink of an eye, his whole body, together with his hair, was all wrapped up. The streamlined black armor was full of power and impact even though it looks dull since there's no luster of metallic shine, he can feel that even an E-Rank Hunter Attack Type cannot penetrate the armor but it's a different topic if it's D-Rank Hunter...

It covered his whole body as if it were a suit of gothic medieval armor instilled with improved aerodynamics—it looked just like a piece of art, but still dull. The whole suit of armor felt full of power and speed compared to the average E-Rank Hunter, making him look slender and majestic, as if his whole body were full of explosive power, but still dull that had a solid texture.

At first glance, the armor looks like a piece of cloth covering him but the only difference was that the Beast Soul Armor was covering the head and body completely, with only a few gaps in the joints where different pieces overlapped, just like the black beetle itself, which was the only weakness of the Beast Soul Armor.

'I gained what I need... But...' Shyrveen said in his thoughts then looks around. 'I need to fully used the time while I'm here.' Then looks down at the Black Beetles that squirming around the creeks but suddenly. He remembered what Han Sen said about the golden Black Beetle for being weird.

'There should be some mutants like the monsters in the dungeon. Better to stick in this rule or I might die in a way that I didn't like for me to be freed from my guilt...'

Then he recalled the armor and didn't stop at eating the meats, but he is feeling full and decided to train the fighting styles that he got currently to use the energy to enhance his fighting ability if not, increasing his stamina will be fine...

Shyrveen stayed for almost six hours in the creek and saw that the sun will set any minutes now and decided to go to the Steel Armor Castle without forgetting to bring and sell the shells of Black Beetle.

'I'm poor now, and so I need to save some currency for emergency uses... Even though it is not handy for now. After all, money is still better to bring and easier to carry than the corpse of the creatures...'

He reached the shelter like another normal person who is walking around there. 'One week of not appearing died down the commotion of me having a conversation with Han Sen. Not that I really care but without Han Sen, it's better to be like this for now since it's less hassle.'

Except for wearing a pajama while inside the God's Sanctuary. But he forgot about it as he ignores his surroundings and focused first on his situation.

After exchanging the shells to the counter, he asked around if there's a place he can stay here in the shelter and came up with the reason that it's better to sleep here for now than queuing outside of the God's Sanctuary for the teleportation device.

Other people already used to this and pointed out the inn that was built inside this shelter for those who are like Shyrveen.

Shyrveen decided to spend three days in this sanctuary since it's equivalent to the one day to his world. He paid for the three days renting the room and reread his status and he concluded that. 'So, it might be up to me when I want to go back to my world but it's fixed for when I'll be sent out here for every once a week... It should be around ten to eleven o'clock every Saturday, huh?... Better to plan and prepared things out when that time comes for I might be killed the moment I popped up in that same place...' He thought as he closes his eyes to rest...
