8 Why not?

"I am practically a machine with this much mana", he had twenty times more mana than a normal cultivator, Dawn had a bold thought no one would be able to match against him on one, but he would later realise how wrong he was.

After pondering for a bit, he went looking around for a bench press, finally, he found the bench in one corner of the room.

Bench press was something he liked doing, he loaded 50 kg plates on each side of the barbell and was able to pump out 40 reps without breaking a sweat. He could do more but that would be pointless, he added 100 more to the barbell and felt it was good enough for the warm-up.

Just like that Dawn did 4 sets of eight reps and was able to set a personal record of 1000 kg, the weight on the bar made him realise that he was truly in a different world.

Ever since coming to this world he finally had time to relax, he felt calm and happy, the motivation to work hard that he never felt before.

Now that Dawn tried to think about his past life, what went wrong that made his father call him a failure?

He had a bright mind ever since he was young, was able to learn things quickly, and almost had a photographic memory, Everyone called him a genius, Then came middle school where he was introduced to the world of anime manga and web novels, he got so engrossed in them that he started fantasising about being the mc and saving the world.

Dawn wanted to live in the world of cultivation and cultivate eternal life, but at some point, he got so engrossed in them that the real world started becoming colourless, and he lost the motivation and the will to work hard.

Dawn didn't know why he should work hard, to earn money to become a millionaire just to die of old age just like the poor people. He didn't want any of that; he wanted something more exciting.

He never doubted the existence of a magical world, after all on Earth where a creature who eats Dung and human beings who were building rockets to go to space can exist at the same time then why can't a magical world exist? If you and they can exist then why can't it exist?

He firmly believed in the principle that he came up with, according to which anything that can be imagined exists in some form or the other in this vast universe.

His mind just couldn't create something out of nothing. That's why when he was transmigrated into this world he wasn't shocked or anything.

As if all those things weren't enough, in high school he got the taste of that pussy. The experience of putting his meat into the hole was so addictive that he forgot about all his goals and motivation, the hole was the only thing on his mind.

When he was old enough to realise, that the holes meant nothing, the world of novels meant nothing, and all that mattered was what he wanted to do, but it was already too late, all the opportunities were gone.

But Dawn always felt sad about one thing, that he wasn't able to live up to his father's expectations, Although his father shouted at him, taunted him, and made fun of him he felt grateful for all the things he had done for Dawn.

Dawn had decided to turn his life around, and when he transmigrated, Dawn's eyes shined with resolution and he muttered confidently, " This time will not be like the last time",

Dawn went to his room soaked with sweat, wiping the sweat off his forehead with the towel, he opened the gate to his washroom and started showering. The water slid down his toned muscles, every muscle of his body was visible and filled with power.

After showering he came in front of the mirror, he hadn't bothered looking at himself since coming to this world, now that he looked he had a handsome face, a pointed nose, black hair and black eyes.

Dawn opened the closet and wore the uniform that they were supposed to wear while not on patrol, he looked dashing in the uniform, and feeling satisfied he decided to head to the canteen to grab breakfast and gather info at the same time.

Dawn knew some surface-level info that wasn't important, he knew that once upon a time all these empires that are the River Empire, the Grand Lake Empire and lastly the Deep Pond Empire were part of one larger Ocean Empire. The last emperor of the Ocean Empire divided it among his sons according to their strength.

The strongest Jonathan Riverblade got the biggest chunk of it and Alex GrandLake got the smaller one although they were in the same realm, this division dissatisfied Alex a lot he always wanted to change the status quo, and the third son got the smallest part.

He walked toward the canteen at a leisurely pace, reaching the canteen he looked around to find anyone useful.

Dawn found the members of unit 5 sitting in one corner eating their fill silently, Dawn looked toward them and they too liked toward him.

Nemo invited him over to join them, Dawn nodded at Nio's invitation and joined them, he sat on a chair beside  Nemo, facing the other three, he was sitting in front of Lucy Goodheart but he didn't bother looking at her l.

Lucy was eating something with a fork and knife gracefully without making a sound. She could only be described with one word 'beauty' She had blonde hair, an oval face with cheery pink lips. Two huge melons on her chest, the cold look in her eyes added another level of charm to her looks.

"Do you guys know anything about the war?" he asked, sending his thoughts directly into their minds with the help of an AI chip.

Everyone looked at him without changing their expression, Nemo was the first to answer, " I don't know much, what's with sudden war," he said with a smile.

There was silence for a moment with no one speaking. Nios continued with curiosity in his voice" But why are they attacking this place, this place is as barren as the desert.

This was the question in Dawn's mind too, At this moment Ellora said "Don't ask me about how I know but according to the info I have they are attacking for the Goldfire vein present on this base, She looked toward Dawn and continued"Goldfire is extremely helpful for those in the channel construction realm and above ".

Ajanta looked toward his sister in shock and bewilderment; he wondered why she was divulging such crucial info, after all, few people knew about it other than the commander and captains.

Hearing that the war was about Goldfire Nios spoke with a dissatisfied voice "What's so great about this gold fire thingy that we have to fight a war for it".

"Country bumpkin ", Ajanta spoke with disdain in his voice. When Nios heard Ajanta's taunt he got furious and looked at him in anger and spoke while getting his teeth "What did you say".

Ajanta looked toward him in mockery and said "A country Bumpkin with a brain the size of a pea, god have pity on him.

Nemo smashed the table with his fist vein bulging in his forehead at this time Ellora intervened and said "I apologise on my brother's behalf he is rude sometimes". Hearing what Ellora said, Nemo calmed down and sat back in his seat, while still looking toward Ajanta with an ugly expression.

All this time Lucy Goodheart continued doing what she was doing without a single change in her expression.

Ignoring this farce, Dawn asked Ellora "How many days do we have till they attack", Ellora answered" Four days at most".

Dawn nodded toward her and expressed his gratitude, Ellora was the opposite of her brother who was arrogant and unnecessarily haughty l.

Dawn ordered something to eat and waited for his order to arrive in the meantime, he chatted with Ellora and Nemo to kill time, the two people were easy to talk to, he completely ignored Ajanta and Lucy, not bothering to look in their direction.

Lucy didn't seem to mind his attitude on the surface but Ajanta wasn't pleased by it.

After some time his food arrived, he ate quickly and headed toward his room.
