A/N:
We are sorry for the late updates recently. One of us is feeling under the weather, so progress had been quite slow. But she said she’s getting better, and we’re trying our best to give you the updates!

Teacher Anna is a very nice teacher.
She explained everything one by one and made sure that everyone had their turn in asking question. The art of refining that she explained was pretty much what Carrola had explained, back then at the square. Although she was using more complicated words rather than Carrola, and it was quite hard to follow her in the first explanations. But after Jai asked her a few times about what she meant, she crafter her words into simpler ones that the others also understood immediately. Jai felt oddly satisfied, although a bit bad for the teacher because he interrupted so many times.
“So refining needs a lot of hard work. You have to meditate with greater focus, cultivating a hab
Darrion yawned as he slipped into the room he shared with Jai. He was just done taking a bath, and he felt slightly refreshed. After dinner, he’s going straight to sleep. Today was quite tiring and he spent his mental and physical energy a lot.Then he saw Jai. The guy had already changed and he had his hair styled neat.“My, my, my, why are you dressed neatly?” Darrion asked.That got Jai’s attention and he turned around. “I’m going to Teacher Anna’s room.”“Oh? You sure? Dinner’s not ready yet. It will be better to wait till after dinner,” Darrion suggested as he ruffled his hair with a towel in an attempt to dry it. He knew his friend was going for consultations.Jai shook his head. “Not now. We’re just going to decide on the time after dinner. I don’t expect her to accept before or right after dinner, so I
Dinner went by just like yesterday, except this time, no one pushed Jai and he didn’t spill any soup. Jai also met with Kefara again, but the girl avoided his gaze and did not try to disturb him again. Somehow, he felt that Serio reprimanded her or something. Else, she wouldn’t act like that towards him in just a short time. He just hoped that Serio reprimanded her gently and did not yell at her. She’s not a bad person. She was just being bratty.Jai’s mood had also got better after dinner. Eating does make mood slightly better. Moreover, he got to finish his food without obstruction from anyone. Jai considered it quite a peaceful dinner.Jai felt a nudge on his left side and Oki leaned in. “Entrance. Some cute nuns are staring at you.”Slightly unexpected, but Jai glanced to the entrance. He saw a group of young nuns there who were flocking a certain brunette nun who was looking down at the floor. Her curly twintails and small
He turned and turned the wood in his hands. It was as thick as his forearm and as long as his feet. He was checking the quality of the wood and made sure that he wasn’t dreaming or anything. What he was holding in his hands, was a log of wood. But it’s not an ordinary log of wood, it was a log of Oakwood.He kinda felt bad that he had to use such a durable Oakwood for a simple shelf. Back in his country, it was hard to get wood because they’re living on a mountain of rocks. They were not rich with trees or grass like the Fire or Wind, so any furniture that has wood on it would fetch a slightly higher price than normal iron in the market.They made their wares mostly by chivying rocks and melting irons. But they also imported some trees from Fire and some herbs from Wind to help the kingdom grow. In turn, they exported their irons and mining materials everywhere. Galum knew this much.“Why are you starring at that log of wood, sweetie?” Darisha came up behind
It was dark. It was raining. The path was slippery, and the lack of light didn’t help at all. Jai wondered why the climate changed so suddenly. It was sunny just minutes ago. The rain poured on him, yet he felt dry.The raging thunder above the clouds blared once again, shining his way with a faint light that saved him from an ultimate death. Jai stopped very suddenly and leaned his body back, his attention in high alert. Below him was a very steep cliff. If the thunder did not lit up, he would’ve been on death’s doorstep by now.Thunder blared once again. It was brighter this time, and it didn’t look like it came from among the clouds like the previous ones. The light came from his side, slightly lower, so he turned to look. At the same time, a light shone, lining into a big block of transparent blue cube. Mists were seen flowing from the big cube, as if telling him it was made of ice.The big ice cube flew before it was suspended in mid air. It stopped right
The Falcon Gate is located in the other side of the mausoleum. When the notorius Darrion led Jai to the main hallway and to the entrance of the garden, he told the thunder elemer of where he should go.“There’s a Y crossing in the garden, right? The left path leads to a building, and another is the bridge. When we go to Teacher Sora’s room, we crossed the bridge. But to reach the Falcon Gate, you head left from the bridge,” Darrion said.Jai nodded. “And then?”Darrion blinked, then he shrugged. “I don’t know. That’s as far as I went yesterday.”Jai looked at him with a flat expression. “I thought you’re showing me the way to the end.”“I’m busy chopping potatoes,” Darrion said with a supposedly, innocent smile. But Jai rolled his eyes.He then took the leather pocket that had the knife and poison darts in it. He then turned it over and over in his hands, checking it out with Darrion.“Why do you think the Matron told me to give the nun poi
A/N:Some unexpected things happened in the last few days. We just want to tell you that everything is getting better, but it had been a little bit harsh. So we're trying our best to keep up with the absence. We hope you would enjoy this chapter as much as we do. Peace.-Jai sounded so sure when he told Kefara to lead the way. But he was actually quite nervous.Back in the previous world, things like these would only happen in video games. Jai, the main character, is tasked by a Matron in a temple to go find something nearby. He was not familiar with the place, so a native would be there to help him as a guide, and he had to protect the guide until they got back. If by any chance, the guide is dead because of a monster attack, then the mission will fail and he has to restart. Or well, if he died, there's a chance to restart the mission from the last save point.Jai wished this was like a video game
“Look out, Jai!” Kefara shouted.On instinct, Jai hugged Kefara and istantly leapt to the side. He whipped his head around to see a big lizard kneeling in the position where they were standing just now.The lizard was, as Jai considered, huge.It was as tall as an average human being. It was covered with scales like normal reptiles and the color was green. It also had these thick black claws that’s as big as an adult’s joint fingers. It reminded Jai of a certain big lizard in Indonesia, the komodo dragon. But the differences are that this lizard is bigger, could stand on its two feet, and hunched back. It looked ugly.The big lizard creature looked around with its yellow cat-like, no, dragon-like eyes, and stuck its black fork tongue out.“Run, Kefara,” Jai said, already taking a stance to cover her. Then he felt her grabbing his shirt from behind.&l
A/N:We are very sorry for the slow updates. There are more health problems and my doctor insisted I rest myself for a couple of days. But we are trying to follow up. Supports are very much appreciated. Stay cool, stay healthy, and good luck for everyone.-Yunyun--Jai ran past the Falcon Gate. There were guards, monks, and nurses standing by the gate and in the hallway but Jai didn’t pay them any heed as he flashed his way through.He went through the rest area, then turning around the dragon statue and into another hallway. It was if he wouldn’t stop running.When they reached the garden, he finally heard Kefara yelling over his ears. “JAI! STOP!!”He was caught by surprise so he slipped his ground and fell forward into the grass, surprising some nuns and monks who were sweeping the leaves in the garden.Kefara also fell to the grass, but she’s lucky she didn’t fall onto her face like Jai did.Jai and Kefara both groaned.
