3 —[Chapter 3]—

Walking inside the bathroom and into the shower I quickly got myself ready, took a shower, brushed my teeth and wore something 'appealing' and luckily for me I was fashionable even though my wardrobe was a bit too black.

Wearing a night black shirt and some jeans and then finishing with some sneakers I looked myself at the mirror and frowned.

Aside from it being a totally different face from what I remembered, I was a bit unnerved at the fact of how fucking handsome I was. Deadly so too. I had a soft jawline, beautiful and curly hair with thr sides cut shorter, a handsome face that just had no imperfections and then my eyes, one had a beautiful Red hue and the other Green.

' Heterochromia at its best.' I thought looking over myself before I opened my inventory and grabbed out all my skill books.

And immediately after i touched them I received a mental message.

[ Absorb Skill Books? ]

It asked and i agreed almost immediately and almost regretted it as new knowledge started pouring into my head in droves before it started going softer and softer as the knowledge latched to my brain and I was able to comprehend everything in a couple seconds.

[ You've learnt Skills— [Pillage], [Create Potion], [Mixed Martial Arts], [Herbology]. ]

[ Your skill [Brawling] has been consumed by superior skill [Mixed Martial Arts] ]

[ [Mixed Martial Arts] has leveled up ×17 ]

My mind was deeply focused on the now knew skill and proficiency I had with multiple martial arts I had not known before even in my past life.

' wow…' i thought as I opened my skill interface.

The most eye-catching skills I had in my opinion by how they worked was [Pillage] and [Create Potion] at how they looked like magic when used. Pillage would 'eat' something and Disassemble them in an instant and all parts gained would get sent to my inventory which looked insane in another person's viewpoint.

And then [Create Potion] which would need items to be infront of me and I could use any energy I had to control the items and mix and fuse them to create a potion. Now this one I had a problem with as I hadn't unlocked any type of energy yet I could use.

' I'll figure it out when I come back.' I thought with a grin as walked out and met my brother who had just woken up.

" Hey Luke." He greeted me as he rubbed his eyes looking disoriented before entering the bathroom and closing it.

Shrugging at that I walked back into mine and Luke's room.

' Two months….two months before everything goes to shit….' I thought as looked out the window at the sky.

" Time to grind." I said out loud with a grin.

—2 Months Later—

—November 6th, 1983—

" Hey Luke the campaign is about to start, are you coming?" I heard Michael speak as he popped his head out the door to our room.

" Oh yeah give me 20 minutes!" I shouted not taking my eyes off the book I was reading even though I knew everything it had to show me.

" Well don't be late." He said before he disappeared off to the basement to where our DnD game would be held but to me it was where everything would begin.

' Today…. Everything starts.' i thought with a grin.

Today Will would get kidnapped by the demo-gorgen or the monster from the up-side-down beginning a spiral of events that would put my friends and the entire cities lives in the middle of a dimensional invasion even if that was years from now.

And I had thought of maybe just stopping everything from happening like maybe getting will not kidnapped but well….that would break all my future knowledge and plus I gained a quest a month ago after my status screen got updated after I unlocked my mana.

[—Quest: To the Flow—]

—Allow Will to be kidnapped by the Demo-Monster.

—Reward: 1 Epic Gacha Ticket, Random Skill.

—[]—

And because of that I just let everything go as it should, and I know that people would see what I am doing as selfish and borderline evil but…who cares? I get stronger and that is all that matters to me and plus this way is more fun for me.

And in the two months I've been here I've done a lot, I had started a training regiment to increase my stats and was successful as I raised my stats up quite a bit even though it was hard as fuck.

I learnt to use all my skills and even was able to find a way to obtain mana which was just by meditating and trying to find 'energy' inside me, took a while.

Leveled up a bunch of my skills and gained a couple new ones, and I also built myself a fucking treehouse in the woods where I keep all my shit like my potion making lab.

Also stole a lot from a dozen shops to build that treehouse.

And now after all this time my status now looked different, I was stronger even if my body only looked a little different but my system kept my body 'normal' and the more I grew the more I'd gain my gains.

And now my status looked like this with a bit of new additions to it.

[—Status.

—Name: Lucian Watters.

—Age: 12

—Race: Human–[1/10]—[0%/100%]

—Tittles: The Boy Genius, Cold-Prince.

—Moral Alignment: Neutral Evil.

—Mana: 20,000/20,000.

—Stats—

—Body—

Strength: 20/35

Agility: 19/35

Endurance: 17/20

Vitality: 15/20

—Mind—

Intellect: 50

—Energy—

Mana: 40

—Social—

Charisma: 70

—Meta—

Luck: 20

—Free Points: 0 —]

I had used my free 7 stat points to get my Intellect to 50 and my charisma to 70 which I didn't know would change anything but then I found people telling me that I looked slightly better then before, so safe to say that the higher my stats the more that '1' point mattered and made a difference.

I was now really strong for a 12 year old and I had a lot of mana which I could only use to make potions, I had unlocked the mana stat as soon as I had felt my mana and tapped into it.

' I haven't been able to use my potion creation skill a lot but I now know how it works and i made a stock of some Health Potions from some fruits that had the 'Vitality' property.'

" And now for my 'Skills'." I said bringing up my skills interface.

I had found that all my skills have a 'rarity' and that the higher a skills rarity the harder is it is to level up but I think my [Era Definer] trait has helped me out here big time.

' Well…I guess it's time to get this show on the road.' I thought before I stood and walked out downstairs passing my father who was watching tv, my mother who was in the kitchen cooking and my sister was probably in her room with my little sister asleep at this point.

Walking down to the basement where me and Mike had lay our claim and built a 'Boy-Cave' of sorts.

In one side of the room where I had lay claim was a bunch of broken pieces of tech I had stole over the two months and used to level up my engineering skill and computer skill.

" Okay! Lucian is here, we can finally begin!" I heard Dustin speak as he chewed on some chocolate as they sat around the table with the DnD setup on-top.

" Our resident chaotic inventor is here!" Mike said as we all sat around the table and Mike taking his position as the Game Master.

" I still don't kmow if that's a real class or not." Lucas spoke with a grin as we looked at Mike and so the game began.
