A man who seems to be in his thirties raised his head and looked at Zed.
It was his dad, Robert.
"Ah, she’s done already? Wait, you go back first, I’ll just wash my hands first."
"Okay, Dad."
Going back inside, Zed sat back down in front of the table.
His sister was also already there, still looking sleepy.
Seeing him coming back alone, his mother asked, "Where’s your father?"
"He just washed his hands. He’ll be here soon."
Just as he finished speaking, his father ca back from the outside.
"Co and sit down already. We’re about to eat." Zed’s mother, redith, urged.
With the four of them sitting down around the table and the food all served in front, the family started eating.
Besides the sound of spoon and fork, only the sound of Zed’s parents’ chattering could be heard around the table.
The breakfast didn’t last that long and soon, everyone finished eating.
Since his parents still had lots of things to do, Zed volunteered to wash the dishes.
After he’s done, Zed went to the living room and sat on the sofa.
With the sound from the TV echoing in the background, Zed muttered in a low voice,
"Status!"
The next second, a light blue translucent screen appeared in front of Zed.
[Na: Zed
Occupation: Farr
Talent: Nature’s Blessing (B), Plant Growth (D)
Rank: Iron 1
Strength: E | Constitution: E | Agility: E | Spirit: D]
[Nature’s Blessing (B): Increase the effectiveness of your crops by 5 tis.]
[Plant Growth (D): Promotes the growth of plants by 50 percent.]
...
Looking at the status board in front of him, Zed showed a complicated look on his face.
In this world, Cidel, where Zed was reborn, the way of life is not like the mundane one back on the previous Earth.
Here, things that could only be found in stories back in his original world are all present.
Such magic, monsters, and this translucent screen in front of him.
And all of these were brought about by an event that occurred more than a hundred years ago.
Year 1914.
Everyone was living their life the sa way they do everyday.
Everything was flowing in the sa direction as how history went by on Earth.
However, on one sunny day, the sound of trumpets suddenly started sounding from the sky, echoing in all parts of the world.
Then, under the fearful and confused faces of the people, multiple pillars of light descended from the sky.
The number of light pillars rose at an incredible speed.
Hundreds, thousands, ten thousands, hundreds of thousands, etc...
The people of that ti could only watch as all of this happened in front of them with questions in their minds.
Only a few years later did they learn that those pillars of light are actually the establishnt of connection between their world, Cidel, and Fiber.
Fiber is a technological world from another universe.
With its advanced technology, their world has already been through a lot of evolutions and has beco a digital world.
In there, everything has been digitized and has beco much similar to a ga world.
Unfortunately, despite their advancent, Fiber was t with a disaster that almost destroyed their world.
Millions of dungeon gates suddenly appeared all over Fiber.
Without even giving them ti to react, monsters started pouring out of those dungeon gates.
They wrecked havoc everywhere they went, causing destruction and chaos.
In the face of destruction, the leaders of Fiber launched the [Salvation] plan.
The [Salvation] plan is basically about Fiber connecting to another world in order to ask for help.
Those pillars of light that appeared on Cidel are the bridge to this connection.
Unfortunately, Cidel was only a normal world at that ti where civilization is only starting to reach the technological era.
Instead of getting help, Fiber only implicated Cidel in the disaster and the world beca overrun by monsters.
But at that mont, a miracle suddenly occurred.
People all over Cidel started awakening professions and unknown powers.
Swordmaster, magician, archers, berserker, etc. appeared among the people.
Despite being confused, the people of Cidel didn’t hesitate to use their newfound powers to fight against the monsters.
And now, hundred of years later, no more monster could be found roaming
"A sack?"
That’s right.
The floating object was actually just a white sack.
However, after seeing that sack, Jay can’t help but frown.
"There seems to be sothing inside it..."
The red rope tightly tied on the of the sack and the bulging appearance of it clearly implied that there’s sothing inside it.
Jay wasn’t the only one who saw it, but also the viewers in the live stream room.
Finding a sad containing sothing inside floating in the sea at night, the viewers in the live stream room can’t help but start speculating.
[This... this can’t be that, right?]
[It’s night, by the sea, you guys are probably thinking of what I’m thinking as well.]
[Hissss, just thinking of it gives shivers.]
[What the hell. Don’t scare like this, guys. I’m alone in my house!]
[Boooo! Upstairs, hehehehe...]
[Kidding aside, do you guys think it’s possible that the thing inside that sack is... a dead body?]
[... Who knows. Let’s ask Jay to take a look.]
[Yeah, yeah, Jay, go take it and see what’s inside!]
[Yes, you should at least take a look!]
[I second that!]
[I also sec...]
[...]
The comnts inside the live stream room at this ti were filled with people asking Jay to see what’s inside the sack.
It was mostly n who’s asking, filled with curiosity.
They want to know what mysterious thing is hidden inside that white sack.
However, Jay didn’t really pay attention to any of their comnts.
Because right now, he couldn’t see any of them.
Seeing Jay’s focusing on his phone, Honey also took a peek and saw the white sack on the screen.
"Ah! Is that the thing that everyone was talking about?"
After seeing that it wasn’t a ghost, the tension that Honey was feeling was reduced a lot and she breathed a sigh of relief.
Nodding, Jay thought for a bit before asking,
"Should we take it to the shore, Honey?"
"Ah?"
!!!
Hearing his question, Honey was taken aback.
When she recovered, she looked at Jay with a bewildered expression.
Really?
You found an unknown white sack floating in the sea and you want to grab it to see what’s inside?
Are you not afraid?
What are you even thinking?!
Multiple questions popped out of Honey’s mind but she didn’t say any of it and only stared at Jay with a speechless look.
Seeing her reaction, Jay scratched his head with an awkward face.
"Well, aren’t you curious what’s inside it?"
Honey could see that Jay seems really interested in that white sack.
Thinking about it, for a live strear like Jay, what they have to think about is how to show contents that will pique the attention of the viewers.
Now, there’s a floating unknown object in the sea which will surely catch the interest of the viewers.
Various thoughts ran through Honey’s mind before she reluctantly nodded.
"Uhh, yeah, I’m also curious."
"Right? Alright, I’ll go get it?"
With Honey’s answer, Jay smiled and started moving.
Of course Jay wouldn’t jump into the sea at this ti of the night to get the sack.
There’s no need for that.
In his mind, Jay controlled the mini cara to get closer to the sack until it’s sticking to it.
Then next, using the mini cara, Jay started pushing the sack towards the shore!
Despite being only the side of a fly, the mini cara is capable of exerting quite an amount of force.
After all, this is a black technology that ca from the Cube!
Slowly, the sack approached the shore bit by bit.
After a few minutes, the sack finally stopped on the sand, right where the water won’t reach it.
Jay approached it with an eager look on his face.
Honey hesitated for a bit before following.
Jay stopped right in front of the sack and crouched, inspecting it with scrutinizing eyes.
With a stick on his hand that he took from the bonfire and didn’t use, Jay poked the sack gently a couple of tis.
Clung~
The sound of a few tallic objects and glasses hitting each other rang.
The mini cara flew around, taking video of everything.
"What about it, Jay? What do you think is inside it?"
From behind him, Honey’s eyes are also on the white sack.
"Hmm, from the sound of it, so glass bottles should be inside with so other things."
"As for other things, we’ll have to open it to know exactly."
Saying that, Jay put down the stick and decided to pull the red rope that’s tying the top.
The mont it was untied, the sack opened and so things fell out.
Cling~ Clang~
Most of the things that first fell were glass bottles.
Seeing it, Jay wasn’t surprised because he could already hear it before he even untied the sack.
