chapter 22: The town
"Huh, wow..." Zilon looked at the window in genuine surprise as he sees what's unfolding around him.
Outside the window he could see the front side of the house he stays,this is field that has enough space for some activities, although with his position he can't get any accurate read on the size of there front.
"So there are people around here I guess,phew.....and here I thought I might have actually woken up in the middle of nowhere" Zilon said as his expression lightened a little bit.
He could see people walking about from left to right in what look a peaceful road, not quite populated but it has enough to know that people exist.
"Well I might as well go explore the outside world and see how different it might also be outside" Zilon held his chin as he contemplated on really going outside.
He did not know if he might face consciences from Lyla if he goes out,he doesn't know if others might understand his language Incase he might need to speak,he does not know the normal norm and traditions they usually follow around here.
".....Ahhh I really am curious,I guess just a little look around won't hurt right?"
He said as he looked back at the box.
Rushing towards it like an excited child,he removed to more clothes then he then picked the left one that seems to look like the same one he saw someone wearing outside.
"Feels a little strange how I know this,and wait how many clothes does this box really hold!" He said as he scratched his face wanting to try out his theory.
"Nah,I should change before it gets dark maybe by then I might have a general idea of how things work in this world" he said and softly nodded to himself.
Picking up the cloth,he took it the bathroom and wore it there.
Looking at his reflection.....
"Hey I am not half bad looking,hehe" he said with a small chuckle.
Zilon was a 15 year old boy with the body size of an about 13 years old.
He had short black hair,black eyes that seems to be dim in the light,small nose and a slightly above average looking body frame and face.
"Well I was at least this handsome in my past I might have had more ladies in my arms than I wanted too" the idea sent him chills as he remembered some events that happened in his past life.
"Nevermind those,Now I need to go"
------------------
Stepping outside the door of the house, Zilon locked the door nob and walked outside the house.
The rays of the sun hits his face and he was greeted with plain green grass.
"Wow,this could easily stretch like 1kilometers,it might take me a while to actually walk from the other side to this side of the fence" He nodded his head and inwardly surprise how a small how is allowed such huge space in the front.
He walked straight and headed to the small door .
Reaching it he pushed it and it opened,then he walked through and looked back to the house.
"Okay now I should be quite keen so that I don't get lost" he said after he confirmed that he was not spotted.
"Alright let me adventure in this world begin"
------------
Meanwhile inside the second room ...
Lyla was sitting on a lotus position.
Brown energy swirled around her alluring figure slowly,and beads of sweat could be seen on her forehead.
Suddenly after some time,the energy dispersed and she opened her eyes slowly.
Her eyes had that glow it had earlier when she was inside zilon's room.
She blinked and her eyes became normal brown color.
"I see.....well " she stood up slowly and. Then vanished.
The only thing now in that room was some small sparks of brown dust which were actually her signature of energy.
-----------
"Wow so this is how it looks like outside"
Zilon said as he walked, swiping his head to the left and right as he saw different buildings with different languages on there billboards.
"The language is definitely different.... however it's strange how I can understand what there saying" He said as walked passed two folks talking to each in friendly tone.
"This is quite odd,maybe it could be the system" he said as he tried to summon the panel which ultimately failed.
"Maybe I might check that later" He said as he stopped to a place that looks like a library.
He entered the place and saw more people.
Some on chairs while some scrolling through shelves of books to make a pick.
"Hmm,now what do I even do now that I am hear I don't Even know we're to start from" he said as his expression turned sour.
"Forget it I will come back next time maybe I might come back with Lyla,after all she is the one that I first saw , hopefully she is a helper"
He walked out of the building and continued walking
'The people here are all weird,they have weird hairstyles that I don't recognize and there eye color too are also different' He said inwardly.
And indeed the were people with a brown eyes, yellow that still look like brown,some pink some green some gray...many different eye colors.
"Is as if I am coming to an anime world....hehe weird" he chuckled and kept on walking.
He was so absorbed in everything that he did not notice that threes people were in front of him and unfortunately.....
BANG
"WOW..."
Zilon hit his head on the back the person and fell on his butt.
"Ouch...that hurts"
"Hey watch were your going loser"
"Huh?..."
Zilon looked up and Saw that it was a boy just the same age as him.
The boy looked at him with corner of his eyes and the other two boys turned around to face Zilon
"You better not go bumbing into people like that"
"Huh...oh sorry about that I guess I wasn't looking" Zilon stood up and waved an apologetic look on his face as he smiled.
"Now don't expect me to hear your sorry, you should be beating up for what you did" the boy smirked as he looked at Zilon with disgust.
'hmm?.....'
"Uh look I already apologized so there is no need for us to fight okay" Zilon said as he tried to talk things normally.
Before he knew the boys friends suddenly flanked Zilon side block his path.
The boy towards Zilon slowly as he said
"Oh yeah I said sorry is not enough I am gonna be at the living crap out of you today,that will teach you next time to be more careful" the boy stood in front of Zilon with a sadistic look on his face.
'this are obviously bullies'
Zilon looked at him straight his expression slowly becoming indifferent.
'he won't take sorry for an answer then fine....'
Zilon expression suddenly turned serious as he looked at him in the eyes .
"Look I don't care who you are but I have already made myself clear here I don't intend on fighting you over some mistake,it will be best if you did not start a fight with me" with that Zilon decided to walk away.
A hand held his shoulder and just when he turned around he heard the boy say
"Oh yeah and who told you to walk away"
I flash of red light flash before zilon's eyes but something surprising happened.
When he blinked he saw the boys hand which now had fire on it moving slow.
"Huh?."
But before he could later reacte to it the attack landed in his face.
The hit was power that it made him spin making him fly for about 1 meter and then landed with a thud.
"Pathetic loser like you should know there place" the boy sniered.
Zilon was on the ground in shock.
"Ma- magic?"
Right that was differently magic,the pain on his face was real.
'so this world really have magic,and this boy is a magic user?' Zilon was excited inwardly,so much so that he somehow forgot the pain on his face.
Zilon slowly recoverded from his shock and stood up.
'Recalling what happened the boy was instant with his attacks' Zilon thought as he sat up.
Huff
Huff
'So it means that his level is way higher than mine, higher level means higher power and strength' he continued to analyze everything in his head as he stood up slowly.
'which means it was supposed to be impossible for me to able to see such an attack,at most I can only feel the pain without knowing what had happened' He said as he made eye contact with the boy.
Looking at him closely, the boy had green eyes and blonde color,with a hairstyle that complimented his face features,he was quite handsome to say the least.
"Oh you want more ,well I have it for you" the boy yelled as he clenched his fists
Zilon cleaned his face which had dirt on it.
'damn I just had a bath's'
"You crappy son of a-....."
"Still talking huh, I will show you" Zilon said annoyed but was cut short.
Fire swirled around the boys outstretched hand as a ball of flames slowly formed.
Zilon remember reading something in his status panel that said something about a skill called the chronico eyes.
'it had to be it so that's the power of that skill I had?' Zilon said as he was surprised.
If chronico eyes was a skill he imagined it to be then.....
'well now that I have confirmed that magic exists I have to find out my affinity,come on it usually shows itself in life and death situations this is the-"
"Say good night you weakling" The boy yelled as he threw the fireball in Zilon direction.
"This is gonna hurt" Zilon said as he position himself to evade the skill Incase he was wrong.
But before the ball could hit him
"That's enough!!!"
Boom
