3 18th birthday?

"Hey, wait up! I don't judge you. not right now, at least. I am here to take you to the exam center. The man knocked on the door, barely controlling his laughter..

"I am getting dressed, so wait a little, will you?" Aryan said, his face red in embarrassment. He found himself in a very tight situation. First, he is in a completely new world where he has no knowledge of himself. Second, there is a berserker kind of guy with an unknown relation to him standing before his door, ready to take him to some sort of exam.

"Sigh. This won't do." Aryan said to himself, putting on a black shirt and jeans, which he took from the drawer. He opened a door, confronting the man, looking directly into his eyes. "Hey, look, what I am about to tell you is a little weird, but it's the truth. I am not the person you think I am; as a matter of fact, I am from some other world who recently got transmigrated into this world, and I don't have a fucking clue what you are talking about."

"SO PLEASE! Let me figure out this on my own."

Silence fell as both of them stared into each other's eyes. And the muscular guy smiled, then slowly chuckled, and then started laughing like a madman. "That's so funny; I almost believed you for a second."

"That's not funny; it's what happened to me. I don't even know who you are or what exam you are talking about." Aryan objected, but the others kept laughing more and more.

"So you are saying you don't know me ? I don't see a problem." He smiled as he placed his hand on Aryan's shoulder. His grip tightened, and the smile on his face widened to reach his ears as he simply grabbed Aryan with his one hand and threw him in the air, out of the balcony. "I am Karl Armstrong, the strongest man in City 7, and girls call me Daddy."

"WHAT IN THE FUCK IS THIS STRENGTH?" Aryan shouted, his eyes almost popping out of shock. He saw himself flying in the air, or falling from the air, to be more accurate. But the only thing going through his mind was, 'How can someone be able to throw around a 70-80kg human like twig?"

"AaaaarrrgggggghhhhH" He screamed his lungs out, feeling the ground closing in with each passing second. "This is the reason why transmigrators should never revail their identity." He thought to himself when suddenly he felt a tuck in his belt, and his falling decreased drastically.

"You are so pussy; are you planning to embarrass me in front of the adventure guild?" Karl said with a smile, standing on a huge silver bird, flying in the air. While Aryan was barely hanging in the eagle's claw with his leather belt, "Seriously, who would believe my brother is such a scared cat?"

"I told you! You are not my brother." Aryan shouted, still scared for his life. The young teenager from the modern world was still not ready to entrust his life to a belt. "Second thing, what in the world are you?"

Karl's smile slowly faded as he looked at Aryan down there, with a confused expression. "I guess you do lose a screw or two after diving in books all day."

Scratching his chin, he thought of an idea as a smile appeared on his face again: "How about this? Since your 18th birthday, if you manage to qualify for the adventurers exam, I will take you to the red light district. I bet you will get some sanity after being laid on by chicks."

"Wait, what kind of older brother parenting is that?" Aryan almost shouted in embarrassment.

"That's my style of doing things; now get your ass focused on the test, will you?" Karl said with a snap of his finger, and the gigantic silver bird disappeared into white smoke, which was absorbed inside his ring like a jinnie out of a bottle, and before Aryan could know it, he was falling again.

But this time, he didn't sceam as he was grabbed by Karl, and bang!!

A loud sound resonated as Karl landed on his feet. The ground cracked, forming a small carter under his weight, while Aryan, held in the air like a baby, watched everything in surprise.

"How in the hell are you so strong? Is that even humanly possible?" Surprised, he uttered, which was clearly audible to Karl. In response, the other just smiled as he let go of Aryan, making him fall to the ground.

"You will get that strong, as long as you keep training and evolving." Karl said, walking straight towards a dome-like building with colossal black gates, wide open. "Follow me ."

Aryan stood up from the ground and, in astonishment, looked around, as if he were a 9 year old kid observing the beautiful world. —a colossal black dome-like structure constructed from reinforced black metal. Entering, he observed a multitude of fellow adventurers bustling in and out.

The medieval weapons and metallic armor adorned by these adventurers stood in stark contrast to the scientific advancements of the world. Even as evidenced as this, it was not easy to accept that what's happened to him was true or an illusion.

His gaze passed, and beyond the towering buildings, he looked at the tall silver walls surrounding the whole place, taller than any building in the city. Upon closer inspection, a bluish green aroma could be seen emitting from the walls, casting a hemispherical dome over the city.

The green aroma from everywhere intensified and collided at one place, the center of the city, where it spiraled like a tornado, falling and connecting with a golden castle. From the looks of it, the castle was completely made of gold, shining in the sunlight and floating in the sky like a mini island.

The castle consisted of five tower-like structures, the middle one directly connected to the falling bluish green aroma. Everything was in sync, making the world look truly wonderful.

"Are you coming?" Karl asked, breaking him out of his daze, to with the young boy nooded, before following him inside the adventure guild.
