[Heheheheh,] Nexus laughed, refusing to quiet down.
"You... What's with this Protagonist Enmity?" Jake sighed, moving on. He then asked about the second Achievent.
[Tch, changing the topic but... well, you know the role of the Protagonist, right?]
"Hmm, the typical scenario: the world's in danger, and soone cos to save it, and that so one is protagonist" Jake nodded and replied.
[Yes the sa is here]
"So there is a Protagonist out there and sohow he will be my Enemy but why?" Jake asked not knowing why the Protagonist will target him.
[Usual stuff again, As a Protagonist he will like to acquire all attention but it won't be possible with you here]
"Hmm, well, with the Cube, I am indeed better than so protagonist created by this world, but why am I not the protagonist?" Jake nodded in understanding and then asked, puzzled.
[Your existence here is due to the Cube. In actuality, your parents' child would have been born many years later, as the stronger one is, the harder for them to have an offspring. But Cube's intervention created a big brother of the future child. Even your parents were astonished when your mother beca pregnant in just one shot- you know what I an.]
"So basically I was never ant to exist, it's all due to Cube" Jake said ignoring Nexus last remark.
[Yes, The cube needed a world suitable for your growth and he found Celestria, then he searched for a family suitable for you and he found a Hidden Boss couple living at an remote village]
"Hmm, I see. Now, with my existence here, all the supposed lilight of the protagonist will be drawn to , and this will cause enmity between and him. What a hot-headed attention seeking protagonist," Jake mumbled and sighed.
[Well, what can we do? Most protagonists think of themselves as the chosen one. They think they own the world.]
"Tch, well, whatever. If he doesn't co my way, then it's better. But if he tries to, then this world will lose his protagonist," Jake murmured in a calm voice, he promised to live this second life to fullest, a joker can't co in his way of life or he will be killed.
[Good mindset you have, 'rcy to enemy is cruelty to self'] Nexus approved of Jake thods.
As Jake contemplated the complexities of his situation, the inviting aroma of his mother's cooking wafted through the air. A gentle knock on his door followed, and his mom's warm voice called out, "Jake, lunch is ready!"
Putting aside his thoughts for the mont, Jake replied, "I'll be right there, Mom." He took one last glance at the mysterious achievents on his system interface before heading to join his family for a al that was enough to cause Royalties drool.
Jake ca to Dinning table and saw his father already sitting there, " Co Jake have a seat"
His father warmly told him to sit near him.
Jake nodded and sit to the chair near his father right side.
"How do you feel?" Reynold asked
"My strength and sense have increased a lot other than that nothing unusual" jake replied
"Good, those are common symptoms don't worry about it" Reynold replied assuring him that these changes are good for him.
"Now pass your hand and let see your Core current grades" Reynold then ask him for his right hand.
Jake nodded and passed his right hand to Reynold not before using Falsify to change his Origin Core to an Simple Core.
his father grabbed his hand and then use his ntal perception to check Jake core grade and "WHAT!!!" He loudly exclid.
The sudden shout scared Sera who ca running to Dinning table " What Happened? Why did you yelled earlier?" She asked worriedly looking at Reynold and Jake.
"Check his cores" Reynold cald down and instructed Sera.
Sera frowned but then suddenly grabbed Jake in to hugs fearing there is sothing wrong with Jake's core, She hurriedly used her ntal perception to check Jake core and " No wonder you yelled earlier, It's Dual Core, a rare situation that only occurs one in Billion people" She exclaid while still hugging Jake.
"Shh, we can't let others know" Reynold hushed her and told her to talk quietly.
"I know, Listen Jake never tell anyone about your cores to anyone, if soone ask about it just tell them you also awakened only one core" Sera nodded and then told Jake, looking directly in his eyes.
"Okay Mommy" Jake smiled and nodded.
"Good Boy" Sera ruffles Jake hair as she praised him, She then placed him back to his seat and went to fetch their lunch.
"Wait let help" Reynold said going after Sera.
'Acting like kid sure is hard' Jake ntally said.
[But I have to say, you make such smiley face in front of other ladies they might out right kidnap you]
'haah, being handso is Sin' Jake sighed and thought
[Narcissistic]
"His other core is definitely White Heart core" Reynold comnted a s he reached Kichen.
"I know, and this leads to so problems" Sera nodded worryingly and replied.
"They will know or they might have already known about it" Reynold said grimly.
"Go get the artifact to conceal his Heart Core, it's still not too late" Sera remarked and Reynold vanished, showing he used abilities akin to Teleportation.
Reynold then reappeared in a bustling city, he was still wearing his villager outfit causing passerby to look at him with contempt.
Reynold din't mind the gazes and went to a building which look like a Market place, the guards at the entrance stopped Reynold seeing his attire.
"Halt, this is not a place for a country bumpkin like you" One of the Guard said.
Reynold didn't said anything and released a pressure that caused the guards to drop on their knees.
"w-we are sorry Sir, we don't know about you" One of the guards said while sweating heavily.
A manager ca out running sensing the pressure, "Sir please forgive them, it's your attire that caused misunderstanding, please follow ". He said calmly but the sweat on his temple gave away his calmness.
"hmm" Reynold nodded and gestured the manager to lead him.
The Manager then lead him inside the shop and Reynold bought a concealnt ring of Legendary grade and reappeared inside the kitchen.
"I got it" Reynold showed the ring to Sera and said.
"Hmm let see" Sera took the ring and then modified it with so of her witchcraft.
"Now it's perfect" Sera remarked after tinkering with the ring.
"We will give it to him saying it's a gift" Reynold remarked, proposing a excuse.
"Hmm, let's do that" Sera nodded to Reynold plan.
After that they grabbed the food and took it to dinning table.
"Here it is horned rabbit at your favorite" Sera said as she poured so at into Jake plate.
"You are the best Mom" Jake said
"What about ? I was the one who hunted them" Reynold asked.
"Of course Dad you are also the Best" Jake replied.
Rey and Sera smiled seeing Jake happily eating the al.
'The f*ck Dragon at, I have yet to see one yet I am already eating one' Jake ntally exclaid as an Achievent unlocked the mont he took a first bite of the al.

Jake then used eyes of Akashic on the al while happily eating his al.

Jake nodded to Nexus comnt and resud his al, his Mom has processed all ingredients so that they will slowly release their energies and effects into Jake body.
"Jake be sure to wake up early tomorrow, I will teach you about weapons and your Mom at evening will teach you about runes" Reynold said to Jake in middle of al.
"Okay dad, but which weapon you will teach ?" Jake nodded and asked.
"I will teach you basics of all the weapons and then we will see which suits you better" Reynold replied.
"Also take this, it's a gift from us to you" Sera said as she passed him the concealnt ring.
"What's this ring Mom?" Jake asked while also using Eyes of Akashic on it.

"Its' sothing we found in one of our adventures but never find it's use, So we decided to give it to you hoping it will be of so use to you" Reynold said.
"Hmm," Jake nodded and wear the ring and showed his parents " Look Mom and Dad how it's look on ?"
"Like a little prince" Sera said hugging Jake.
"okay okay leave the poor kid, let him have his al" Reynold said seeing his wife is not leaving Jake.
"humph not my fault, he is super cute than most princes" Sera said poutingly but the happiness is oozing out of her.
Jake didn't mind it a bit and kept devouring his al, most of the villagers pinch his cheeks and then smiles happily like his cheeks are so kind of stress releaseing toy.
After finishing his al Jake returns to his room.
