Chapter 2: Chapter: 2 Fuk Yu (1)
"Attention all class 3-3 students, please line up according to your ID number."
The voice of Ms. Yin An came as she rallied her students to the awakening crystal.
"One at a time! Wait for the one in front to awaken their talent and teleport before going up to the alter."
She informed the students as they began to line up in front of a pedestal holding a large, diamond-shaped crystal that shimmered under the sun.
'Finally, the day has come...'
Standing at the forefront of the line was Fuk Yu, who couldn't help but reminisce about his short, yet somehow long life. Somehow, nearly three years had passed since he reincarnated in this world.
That's right, he was not from this world!
Yu used to live in a rather peaceful world on a planet called Shi Star, an entirely ordinary world without the supernatural trend that was prevalent in this one. Compared to this violence-filled world, Yu preferred his previous, peaceful one.
These three years had been enough for him to learn a lot about this world, it was a world where everyone could become a lord in a parallel dimension. Once a person reaches adulthood, they may apply for an awakening exam and awaken their territory through an awakening crystal.
Everyone's territory was determined by their unique talent and the race of their initial race.
"Yu! Yu? Yu... ID.0099 Fuk Yu!"
The shout of his teacher pulled Fuk out of his daydream.
"Ah, it's him right?"
"Yeah, the problem child."
"I heard he assaulted the international exchange student just because she couldn't use a chopstick."
"A Real nut job, he is."
"WTF! Master Joda!?"
Fuk Yu was an average 18-year-old, standing at the height of 5'10, he was slightly taller than his classmates. He had a somewhat pale complexion along with pitch-black eyes and hair, in terms of his face, well, he dubbed himself 100/10 but the rating would be somewhere around 7 or 8 out of 10.
Yu raised his head high as everyone began to discuss his past actions, some were great while the others were purely out of his patriotic habits from his past life. He, after all, was a true easterner!
'Just you wait! Once I am strong enough, I will erase this Western brainwashing and enlighten these poor people to true Eastern ideologies!'
"FUK YU!"
Hearing his name being called by Dean, again, Yu quickly made his way over to the crystal and stood before the pedestal.
*.*.*
The Dean, Ms. Yin An, gave a pitying look to the unfortunate child before her.
What happened to him was horrible it was her fault why it happened, and she regretted it dearly.
When he had first introduced himself to her, she was suffering from a rather severe hangover, and once she heard his name being directed at her... well... let's just say she got a bit too physical with him.
After she was done with the boy, he had seven skull fractures and thirty-three broken bones.
He survived... but was never the same again.
Assaulting the exchange students from overseas, setting fire to fast food joints, and even vandalizing soda dispensers, always leaving behind a red paper with some strange drawings on it.
One time, he went so far as to try and sell something called 'stinking tofu' on the street. She wanted to give it a try but the smell made her remember that she just had a cheese cake a couple of hours ago.
*Sigh*
'It's all my fault!'
If nothing else, he could always become an artist, after all, his strange paintings were quite popular at the Gallery for 'Mentally Disabled Young Artists.'
*.*.*
At that moment, Yu stood before the crystal, hoping for the best possible outcome. Moments later, a beam of golden light slammed straight into his forehead and he was sent hurtling down the teleportation tunnel.
Soon, his illusionary form was floating above a piece of land which was his territory. In front of him, was the interface entailing all his details,
[Territory: Fertile Flatland]
[Level: 0]
[Initial Race: Lamias(Nagas)]
[Population: 0/10]
[Area: 4 Units(Each unit= a square of 100m*100m)]
[Natural Resource: None]
[Protection: Novice Period Barrier(7 Days)]
'So this is my territory, huh? It's pitiful, but it will do as the foundation for my glorious Dragon Empire!'
His eyes widened as he took in the race interface,
'Lamias! Those legendary snake-people!?'
[Lamias: Lamia is an all-female race of snake-like humanoids with long tails and a human-like upper body. They possess a natural immunity to poison and can also emit deadly toxins from their bodies. Their strong and flexible tails can also be used as whips or weapons. They can also charm individuals and manipulate their thoughts and behaviors.]
'Jackpot! Let's see you bastards look down on me now!'
He reached out to the interface and swiped it to one side, revealing his stats,
[Name: Fuk Yu]
[Tier: 0]
[Age: 18 years old]
[Profession: Not yet a lord]
Strength: H
Dexterity: H
Vitality: H
Mana: H
[Lord Talent: 100 Times Amplification(Lv.1 0/10,000)]
[Unique Skill: None]
[Skills: None]
'Hmm, Amplification? What's that?'
[100 Times Amplification: Lord's talent, 'Amplification' increases the quantity or quality of an item by 100 times.]
'Hmm? Sounds powerful!?'
At that moment, another notification sounded in his head, drawing his attention to the mailbox at the upper right corner of the interface.
[Novice Gift Pack Available!]
[Extract?]
Fuk Yu didn't hesitate and immediately accepted the gift pack.
[Novice Gift Pack Opened]
[One Tier-0 Recruitment Token, 9 Cans of Inferior Rations, 6(1L) Water Bottles]
Hundred times amplification reward:
[One Tier-0 Recruitment Token -> One Hundred Tier 0 Recruitment Token or One Tier-0 Hero Recruitment Token]
[9 Cans of Inferior Ration -> 900 Cans of Inferior Rations or 9 Cans of Military Grade Rations.]
[6(1L) Water Bottles -> 600(1L) Water Bottles or 6(10L) Bottles of Spring Water.]
Fuk Yu's eyes gleamed with excitement as he considered the implications of possessing the Amplification Talent. The potential to multiply or upgrade resources was quite the game-changer.
'Hmm, first things first, let's check out this recruitment token.'
He picked up the ordinary Tier-0 Recruitment Token and held it aloft,
"Amplify to Tier-0 Hero Recruitment Token!"
The white sheet of paper shone with a bright light and was replaced by a sheet of similar size but of a Golden hue.
[One Tier-0 Hero Recruitment Token: Ava Shepard]
Yu grinned as he remembered the importance of a Hero Grade unit. Heroes didn't have an upper limit on the number of skills they could learn, they could increase their stats like a lord could and train soldiers based on their profession.
'Next, let's deal with the rations and water. I don't want my subjects going hungry or thirsty.'
With a swipe of his hand, he activated the Amplification talent on the rations and water bottles.
[900 Cans of Inferior Rations]
[600(1L) Water Bottles]
'Haha, this is incredible! With this, I don't have to worry about food for quite some time and can hire many people too.'
Fuk Yu was determined to turn his seemingly modest territory into the cornerstone of his envisioned Dragon Empire to realize true Eastern ideology.
'The novice barrier should be enough protection for a week.'
At first, he planned to recruit a worker and get started with harvesting resources before the 'Building Resource Pack' came. It was the standard building pack that every aspiring lord received on the third day of their novice protection period, and it usually had the blueprint for a town hall, Barrack, and Hut.
'Now, let's explore this land and see what resources it holds.'
Fuk Yu directed his attention to the territory interface, eager to discover the potential of his Fertile Flatland.
[Territory: Fertile Flatland]
[Level: 0]
[Initial Race: Lamias(Nagas)]
[Population: 0/10]
[Area: 4 Units(Each unit= a square of 100m*100m)]
[Natural Resource: None]
[Protection: Novice Period Barrier(7 Days)]
'Hmm, no natural resources yet, but that won't be a problem for long.'
Yu envisioned his territory flourishing with farms, mines, and various structures. He was determined to make the best use of his time during the Novice Period and build a strong foundation for his Dragon Empire.
But for now, he opened his mailbox on the interface's top left. Three messages were waiting for him,
[Ms. Yin An: {Small Resource Pack X 1}]
[Big Sister: {Stupid Brother}]
[Miss Class President: {Join the Class Group}]
'Humph! Three beauties are waiting for me! Must be my good looks!'
Ms. Yin An had once injured him quite severely, she must have been too flustered while being talked to by such a handsome young man like him. (Or so he thought)
From then on, she would assign him extra marks under the 'Disability Column,' which must be an excuse to start a relationship with her student! (Or so he thought)
[Ms. Yin An: Small Resource Pack(1)
Student Yu, please accept this small resource pack as a personal gift from your teacher to advance your territory, survive the Lord's Test, and officially become a Lord. I hope you have awakened a great talent and that your race is a good one as well.]
'Look how the good wife yearns for her husband! Don't worry Miss Yin, I won't forget you once I become the great lord.'
