Chapter 2
A voice of a man was continuously reverberating through his ear.
"Hey! Liam, wake up!"
"Huh? What?" Liam woke up from his deep slumber.
His body was somewhat stiff and sweaty and his expression was a bit troubled.
"What 'what'? The d.a.m.ned teacher is already here, stupid." A student near him went near his ear and muttered things at him with a low voice.
"Huh? What?" After hearing his cla.s.smate talked, he was confused.
'Is this what you call the Déjà Vu?'
????!
He was bothered when the phone inside his pocket rang so he pulled it out and checked it. After seeing the notification on the screen, he frowned.
[Welcome back, user.]
'No way... This is definitely not a Déjà Vu. I remember now. This is that crazy app!'
"Hey, hide your phone, you crazy motherfu–"
"STAND UP!"
A loud, thunderous roar which you only hear in movies echoed throughout the whole room. It was a familiar woman who have her sharp-glaring eyes and her fairly voluptuous body standing firmly in the front end of the room.
After hearing her exclaimed, all the students, besides Liam who was surprised and dropped his phone, immediately stood up and looked at the blackboard without letting a second pa.s.sed.
"Sit! Have you already finished the things I wanted you to do?"
"Yes, miss Aria!"
"Question. What did the monster historians from the alpha a.s.sociation found after visiting an old ruin from the eastern continent." The lady teacher asked while she turned around to write something on the board.
Liam, who was not listening since his phone fell, regained his composure and sat straightly on his chair.
'What just happened to me? This happened before, right?'
Ding!
He grabbed his phone back in front of him again and looked at the new notification.
"No f.u.c.king way..."
He can't believe it. He even blinked his eyes, closed his phone, and looked at it three times. Even though he knew it don't change anything because it's just a word from his phone.
[You have been successfully transported into an alternate world]
"Liam, don't curse. You're crazy. She's going to hear yo–"
Tak!
"Give me the name of the student talking at the back?" After letting a question flow out from her mouth, she simply glanced at the empty air.
"L-Liam Keene and Nathan Vance, miss..." The student near her answered.
"Hmph. Mr. Keene, Mr. Vance..."
"M-Miss, good... Good afternoon. We apologize..." Nathan stood up and bowed his head towards the lady teacher.
"G-Good afternoon, miss..."
Liam also followed.
"You dare sleep in my cla.s.s! Both of you! Get out of the room, stand up with your arms wide open, and prepare to call your parents in the school!"
SHUT!
Liam was kicked out of the room and was forced to stand up in the corridor.
"d.a.m.n it. What's happening?" He was irritatingly upset.
He didn't know if this was just a dream or not.
"Hey, Liam. You're really crazy. I shouldn't have woke you up. Now, I'm also here." He chuckled.
He seems to be quite friendly with Liam.
"Hey, uh, cla.s.smate. Hit me." Liam suddenly said in a
If this was just a dream, he really needed to wake up as soon as possible. He didn't know what would happen to him at his school.
"Ah, it's Nathan. And sorry, but what? Why would I hit you?" Nathan simply tilted his head without much confusion and questioned Liam.
"I would just like to confirm something."
"Okay."
Not even a second pa.s.sed but he already tried to move his body. Then...
ACK!
...He quickly hit Liam.
"Kurk–! I-It hurts! W-Why did you hit me in the stomach...!?" Liam lowered his body as he touched his agonizing abdomen.
It was painful. If he know it would land there, he would definitely warn him, but he barely even see Nathan move.
"Oh, sorry. I thought you could take it. haha~ I'll help you take yourself on the bench there if you want."
"You d.a.m.ned..."
A while later, they both sat on the bench near the corridor but far from their room. It took a while before Liam recovered from the blow on his stomach.
Then Nathan suddenly talked...
"Anyways, why are you weak?"
The question was like a knife stabbing Liam straight into his chest.
I've been like this for my whole life, what are you talking about!
"You're just incredibly strong." Liam shrugged.
"Eh? But my strength is really average compared to the other students in the top three cla.s.ses. Maybe you're just really weak." He spoke up with his straight face.
And the last words stabbed Liam once again. But he quickly recovered from that than earlier since he was quite confused from what he said.
"Average?"
"You're really stupid... And weak I guess."
"d.a.m.n it."
"Ah, I forgot. Just tell me your stats so I can tell." Nathan scratched his head as if he really just remembered something and it was stupid for him.
"Huh? Stats?"
Now he was really confused.
"Yeah. Your level or your attributes."
"Huh? Ah. What game are you exactly talking about?"
"Game? I mean the system? Your system."
"System?" Liam's face even more frowned.
At that moment, he widened his eyes as he looked at the empty air.
"Ah, do you see it now?" Nathan looked at the sweating Liam who looked extremely surprised.
"N-No way..."
A window appeared in front of him, showing his status, level, and attributes.
"...This isn't true, right?" Liam asked without looking away from the window.
"What do you mean 'it's not true'? The system has always been with us since becoming ten years old. You're really being weird."
Gulp. He couldn't believe it. So he really was transported to another world.
"So what's your level?"
"Ah, that..."

"This... Is this real?" Liam was quite shocked after seeing the window in front of him.
'He said we all have this system... I'm in an alternate reality...'
...What the app said was true.
"I told you it is. So what's your level?" He immediately asked after carelessly picking his nose just now.
"Ah. Uh... I'm Level 21 right now, is that good?" Liam turned his eyes off his stats for a moment and stared at Nathan and questioned him.
"Eh? The average level of a student for our year is twenty-seven. So you really are weak."
"Don't say it so casually! Ah, At least I have my sprint skill to level 19."
Nathan tilted his head once again.
"The average level of sprint is 25. You really are weak. I think the teachers even say you can't completely outrun from a low D cla.s.s monster when you're sprint skill isn't at least higher than the level 20." Nathan carelessly said with his straight face.
"d.a.m.n it." Liam was once again upset.
'So I really am weak in this world. I thought every people getting isekai'd will be overpowered from the start. I guess not.'
He felt dejected. He can't even run from some low-level monsters...
Monsters...?
"Wait... What monsters?"
"Hm? I didn't know you're also stupid."
'I shouldn't have asked this guy...'
Ding!
Liam's phone vibrated. He decided to check it since he was transported because of it. With a bit of irritation, he opened the notification.
[The user is getting pretty stupid after coming into an alternate world which is unfamiliar to him.]
He was speechless. Even the d.a.m.ned app was calling him 'pretty stupid'.
[The Heaven's App will provide help by telling all the common sense and the basic information of the user's new world.]
'This...'
Should I finally praise this d.a.m.ned app?
