3 CHP 3: School Life...

.

.

.

.

Jacob had already gotten washed up, and ready for school. 

'I won't be too pleased about this... But, I have to go if I want strength...' He sighed to himself, according to his own memories, his school life was for the lack of the better term, chaotic...

He was a bullied victim in his previous life, as well as in this one, however, the bullying in his life was just name calling at best, one or two punches. But here? It was getting beat to a frizzle, and essentially repeating the process...

'...I'm not gonna just sit by and get my ass handed to me. I'm done with that, and with this power, I can finally fight back...' He nodded.

~ An hour later after taking the school bus ~

.

.

.

Jacob stepped out the bus, seeing multiple students going into the school like it was just any ordinary day...

'So this is where I'll be for a good while...' Jacob realized that seeing the kids here up close, makes them look ordinary, other than a few exceptions to the rule. He saw guys that were in lack of a better term, towering and girls that had proportions out of this world...

'Seeing this all up close feels very off...' He just pushed his thoughts to the back of his head, and continued walking to his classroom...

After entering his school, he looked around walking past a few classroom-

"P-P-PLEASE!!!"

Jacob heard someone scream for what sounds like their life...

"What, the...?" Curious, he walked in the direction of the screams, still hearing even more of them.

After reaching the classroom, he could see multiple people laughing, both male and female at what seemed to be someone getting beat up.

Taking a closer look, Jacob recognized who it was...

'D-Daniel?' Jacob double checked again, confirming it was indeed daniel park, and as he saw in his mind, was him in his fat body...

'He's getting bullied this early in the day...?' Jacob only felt pity for him at this point.

What he also noticed, was that Daniel was bleeding from the nose and other parts of his body... 

'Isn't this, an opportunity?' He looked again, seeing the state daniel was in. He shook his head, even though he was a freak of nature, he wasn't that strong and he could still feel pain. But the gains here were much more than that...

Plus he could try and help daniel as a fellow bullied victim as well. Hitting two birds with one stone, but it would hurt a lot though...

'Fuck it!' He charged in.

"H-HEY! DOUCHBAG!!!"

.

.

.

Immediately, the room went dead silent, with everyone looking at Jacob... The guy who was beating up Daniel had stopped; Jacob had now realized how bloody the guy's fist was. The hulk of a student slowly turned around...

"Ah~ shit..." 

The hulk of a guy dropped daniel, who was crying on the ground and in pain... Seeing this irritated Jacob. This wasn't just bullying, it was beat-down of a pretty high standard...

"The hell did you just call me?" He said. He looked like a 30 year old man, instead of a kid.

'Huh... This, is weird... I, don't feel afraid of this guy... He just looks like a big fat lump of flesh to me...' Jacob shoved his thoughts aside. Realizing that the lug had closed the distance while he was thinking to himself...

'Ssshhhhit!' Jacob could feel himself getting picked up by the bastard.

'T-This fucker is strong...! He picked me up effortlessly!' Jacob tried to loosen his grip but it didn't budge at all. However, the guy simply flung him across the room, beside where daniel was...

*Crashes onto the floor!*

'-FUCK!' Jacob was angry, furious even. But, he knew couldn't just use his powers willy-nilly here either... He needed to be discreet, and hold out a bit. Just until class started. 2 minutes were enough...

He looked beside himself only too see a bloodied Daniel...

'Daniel got it pretty bad...' But taking this opportunity, he discreetly put his hand over where droplets of Daniel's blood were. He smeared it onto his hand, not ready to absorb it at all, not yet...

'Just for a little longer...' Jacob chanted. The guy charged where Jacob was, his swing was wide and obvious. So Jacob ducked, causing him to miss.

"*tch* You! LITTLE!" He shouted. This time swinging largely again. Jacob seeing it, barely dodged the punch, causing the huge lug to miss and hit one of his lackeys. The rest of the students were surprised that someone was actually fighting back, and dodging successfully...

"ARGGHHH!!!!" He shouted, clearly annoyed. Jacob watched carefully at where the lug would swing-

But before he could, "LOGAN!!!!" Hearing the voice, Immediately, the lug stopped mid-swing. Looking to his right. 

'Serves you right fucker.' Jacob thought, seeing who the teacher called, Logan stopped; His face clearly that of anger and irritation...

Having a quick look at the situation, the teacher glared at Logan intensely.

"You! With me to the principal's office..." His tone clearly referencing Logan. He then looked towards me, and Daniel...

"Can the both of you walk?" He glared at Jacob. "Yes sir..." He answered.

"Good, both of you rest up at the infirmary for now..." He called and waited on Logan, who glared at Jacob for a moment, before walking away...

'That was... Interesting...'Jacob thought, sighing heavily. He looked down where daniel was.

"Are you alright?" Jacob asked, knowing the answer already.

Daniel sniffled, and dried his tears, "Ye-Yeah... T-Thank you f-for, helping me." He answered...

Jacob nodded, and stood up, mostly uninjured from the confrontation. "We need to hurry, and get you patched up..." He grabbed Daniel's Hand. Helping him up off the floor...

After reaching the nurses office, she acted quickly, getting daniel band-aids and such, while Jacob got to rest from it since he heals much faster than a regular human.

Having some time for himself, he positioned himself on the bed, and closed the curtains...

'My very first day and I'm already getting into confrontation with the school's biggest bully... Heh~' Everything had happened so quickly...

"Still, I got what I really came for..." He whispered to himself. He saw the blood from Daniel in his hands. He wondered what he would gain if he absorbed all of it.

He smiled, 'Time to find out.' He quickly willed his body to absorb Daniel's blood. Instantly, he could tell that this was different than what he expected...

Moments after, he could feel his muscles, nerves an even bones squirming much more under his flesh from this than what he initially expected.

Jacob could actually see his bones and muscles reforming under all this even his brain felt tingly, down to his very nerves were shifting, changing...

The process lasted much longer than what it did with the ant, around 15 times longer to be exact.

After the process had been finished, he exhaled in satisfaction...

'So this is what the perfect body feels like...?' He asked himself. Clenching his fists. He didn't feel stronger, but he felt far less shackled than he did prior...

'Status!'

'Not Bad! I got a lot of stuff from just absorbing daniel's blood alone; Increased life-span, UI, the copy ability, Reflexes, his perfect body and even his looks? HA! I hit the jack-pot!'

Jacob was gleaming inside, he realized that he had a new stat too, called movement speed, which was practically self explanatory... Having experience from his last life and a bit of common sense, he can guess what the other stats were based on what they were called...

'Hmm? I got his talent as well, and it's a B-class?... Shouldn't Daniel's talent be S-class?' Jacob shrugged, 'Maybe the system has a different method of gauging talents as a whole...' Either way, he was very happy.

Not only did he gain new abilities, most of his passive abilities improved, even his biological limits improved massively as well, by a large margin. 

'At this point, it wouldn't take me long to reach the pinnacle of this universe, maybe a month or two, tops. If I train the way I did last night...' With that thought, Jacob would be going on quite the shopping spree...
