Life In Another World 6 Fixie

He was recalling past events. The feeling of being loved and sheltered, It's been a while since he felt this kind of thing.

He was reminded of his parents who were living in his past world, Kiro couldn't help, but to give a deep sigh.

"Haah, what headache... I never deeply thought of it, Are my parents from the other side doing well? Probably the answer is yes... Hehehe, there's no living monster in that place after all." (Kiro)

Kiro right was trying to distract himself, he couldn't proactively open up the topic of his parents, even the thoughts of it will make him depressed. After all, even if he wanted to go back, he could not. So deep inside him, It was one of his biggest regrets.

"Well growing up in life, we will partway from our own parents sooner or later, so stop thinking negatively, Kiro..." (Kiro) mumbled those words repeatedly, trying to calm himself down.

Even so, he couldn't help, but to build a tinge of regret deep inside his heart.

Little did he know, on the other side of his original world, there was a person who is deeply affected by his disappearances.

***

In Maruyama Park.

The place is still lively even though It was already late at night. It was the time of the year where Cherry Blossom, bloom at its peak.

Bustling attractions can be seen at the night festival, the atmosphere is warm and cheerful, time to time laughter can be heard and echoing at the side of the food stalls.

But a certain person was s.p.a.cing out from such a lively place.

She was staring blankly at the tallest cherry tree, the girl has long silky chestnut hair the It so dazzling, from time to time whether it was a man or woman, they couldn't help, but to admire her beauty. Her mesmerizing almond eyes that didn't leave the sight of the tall cherry blossom tree. Some random guy even said he wished that he could swap places from the tree so that the beauty would stare at him.

Well, the surrounding people couldn't blame the guy, because the girl is such a rare beauty. It was a foul play of her, wearing a black long sleeve underneath of her long fit white coat and navy blue skinny jeans along with black long boots, even though she was wearing a long white coat, It couldn't hide her destructive figure. Instead, It emphasizes her beauty much more.

Finally, the girl looks at the night sky, seeing a beautiful twinkle star gazing from the above.

"Why? Why is it that I couldn't remember your name? But every time I look at the stars, why do I feel like my heart is about to burst in heartache? Who are you? How come I couldn't remember something so important." The girl mumbled those words in a low tone.

"I even tried to search for you, but no matter what I did, I couldn't find a single thing, I even went to the town where you supposedly live. But when I reached that household, they said there was no such person. But why is it, deep inside me, keep rejecting the fact and saying It wasn't a dream or hallucination."

"... Hey, tell me do you really exist?"

After that, the girl gave one last deep look at the Weeping Cherry Tree. She felt like she could see her own Image from the tree. Beautiful yet lonely, It looks strong from the front yet deep inside she was just a frail young woman.

Taking a deep breath, the woman leaves the place, facing the world straight and proud like the Weeping Cherry tree.

Morning came.

Kiro Is already awake early in the morning. He couldn't sleep well because of last night's event.

Suddenly he remembered something, the voice that helped him to regenerate his body.

"Um... Fixie bot right? can you hear me?" (Kiro) felt weird for talking by himself, he didn't even know if the voice would respond to his call.

"Yes, master! I'm Fixie bot." (Fixie)

A childish voice echoed inside Kiro's head.

"Woah, It did respond to my call..." (Kiro) mumbled in a low tone.

The last time he talked to Fixie bot, he couldn't be bothered to know what It was, his head at that moment was preoccupied with hatred and how to survive in the forest.

"Uh, Master you're so mean! my name is not 'It' Fixie, call me Fixie." (Fixie)

"... Sorry, ahem, okay Fixie right? So can you explain to me what you are in full details." (Kiro) felt weird, he could clearly hear the voice and sounded like a small girl at the age of 12.

"Okay~ Master! Fixie is, know you~ a beautiful lady! Even though Fixie sounds like this, I am a full-fledged adult! Hehehe~ and-" (Fixie)

"Wait, wait, wait! I didn't ask you to describe yourself, what I meant is why you are being called a Fixie bot." (Kiro) is having a headache just hearing her playful voice.

Since at a young age. He wasn't good at talking with kids, because of his scary gaze, the kids tend to avoid him rather than talk to him.

"Uwu... O-okay, Fixie is an adult so fixie won't argue with a meanie master." (Fixie) pouted, she was about to burst with tears.

"Fixie is from spirit race, we spirit race serve the G.o.ds of this world, Fixie was chosen by the G.o.d of Creation to be the core spirit for the System Upgrade. Fixie was sleeping, didn't know how many years it had been since fixie was awakened." (Fixie)

"Because Fixie was now connected from System Upgrade, Fixie evolves from Spirit Race to System Spirit Race. Perhaps because Fixie now is a part of the System Upgrade, then G.o.d of Creation gives me a new name, that's why Fixie now called Fixie bot." (Fixie)

Kiro didn't know what to say, he was speechless from G.o.d's naming sense.

"Ahem, okay then, can you explain to me what Is System Upgrade and Its function?" (Kiro) give a light cough to stop the burst of laughter from coming out, he doesn't want to upset the little Fixie.

"The last time Fixie already explained about the sp points to Master, so the rest of the explanation wasn't that complicated." (Fixie)

"System Upgrade is a Skill made by G.o.d of Creation, It was the strongest skill the G.o.d of Creation ever made. As for Its function, the more the user level up the more SP points the user will get, using the SP point can upgrade the user strength, mana, body, lifespan to the maximum capacity for every single stage that the System Upgrade allows.

For example, just like the last time, Master used the SP point to heal your wounds, If you are at the second stage level of the System Upgrade, you wouldn't need to use SP Point to heal that kind of wounds, your wounds will regenerate by Itself." (Fixie)

Kiro was flabbergasted from those words, He knew how severe those wounds, yet the little girl inside his head, saying that If he reaches the second stage of this so-called 'System Upgrade' that kind of wounds will heal by itself? What is more, the shocking revelation he can now upgrade his own lifespan! He went numb just by hearing this.

"System Upgrade doesn't only work for Master, If Master ever finds a worthy companion, then Master can boost your companion using the System Upgrade, but that current feature is locked at the moment." (Fixie) said another stunning word.

This time, Kiro didn't know what to say anymore.

Pretending he didn't hear a thing, Kiro asked another question.

"Then how can I know what stage I am right now?" (Kiro)

"Simple, the Master just needs to Appraise himself." (Fixie)

"Huh? how can I Appraise myself?" (Kiro) was in bewilderment, he didn't know what little fixie was talking about.

"Mn? Didn't master has an Innate skill [Appraisal] you can use the appraisal skill to appraise yourself, Master." (Fixie) answered with confusion, like she doesn't understand how come her master doesn't know a simple fact like that.

"... Ohh, so [Appraisal] skill can be used like that. So what should I do to appraise myself?" (Kiro)

"Master... You just need to stretch your hand then say the keyword [Appraisal] then you can see your own status." (Fixie) couldn't believe it, from the words she heard.

'Don't tell Fixie that Fixie Master is dumbo~ No, no, no! Fixie Master isn't dumbo~ Fixie is great so Master should be great too! But Fixie is much greater!'

"Hehehe, so It was just like that." (Kiro) throw a dry laugh to hide his embarra.s.sment as he stretches his right hand.

"Then... [Appraisal]" (Kiro) murmurs the keyword.

Flash of Information flooded through Kiro's mind.

"Urgh... What the heck is this?" (Kiro) couldn't help, but to let out a soft groan.

He was feeling dizzy from the sudden information that he received.

Finally, he stabilizes his mind, Kiro looks at the transparent screen like a hologram that can only be seen from a movie in front of him.

"... This, really? If I didn't experience a life and death situation yesterday. I would probably still believe that everything here isn't real, because... This absurd skill makes me lose my mind." (Kiro)

"It is so unreal, yet this is the reality. Haah~ perhaps I need to adopt from my current self, quickly as possible, or else, I might lose my mind." (Kiro)

Hearing Kiro's mumbling, Fixie asked him a question.

"How is it? Master, did you manage to see it?" (Fixie)

"Yeah... I did manage to see my statistics." (Kiro)

After saying that Kiro did not bother about Fixie who keeps pestering him, Kiro acted like she doesn't exist for a moment while trying to digest every information he got.

***

After digesting all the information, Kiro goes out of his room, but before he could leave and open the door. He felt a familiar presence at the back of the door.

"Chief Geoffrey?" (Kiro) asked in a light tone.

He still felt awkward because of the event last time.

"Yes, Kiro. It's me, sorry for bothering you like this early in the morning." (Geoffrey)

"No, not at all, so what is it, Chief Geoffrey?" (Kiro)

"It is nothing, It's just that I would like to talk to you before you leave the village." (Geoffrey)

"Is that so? Okay just wait for a moment and I'll go out of the room." (Kiro)

He tried to buy some time so he could sort out his awkward feeling.

After a while, Kiro got out of the room and he saw chief Geoffrey near at entrance of the room.

Giving the chief a slight nod as a greeting, then asked him a question.

"Mn, Is there something would you like to ask or need my help for? Chief Geoffrey." (Kiro)

Kiro tried to act natural as possible, for him, his blunder last time, he still couldn't forgive himself for being insensitive.

"Nah, It's not something big, I just want you to take care of something for me." (Geoffrey)

After saying that he stretches both of his hands and shows Kiro a black wooden box.

The box looked so ordinary, the only unusual thing is, the box was made of black wood, It is a rare type of wood.

Opening the box, chief Geoffrey shows Kiro what is inside.

"This pendant is the family heirloom of Kaho before she went and traveled all around the world with my son. She left this to me. It was an important keepsake that I kept all these years. Now that you mentioned it before, you came from the Eastern Empire, I will give you her family heirloom and I hope that you could find her relative and return the pendant to her family." (Geoffrey) said with expectation.

It was one of his wishes, to return the heirloom to Its rightful owner.

Kiro thought for a moment, He couldn't believe that the silent agreement he did would lead to this huge misunderstanding. But even so, feeling guilt for everything that happened last time. Kiro couldn't voice out a rejection. He could only nod in agreement.

"Then, please take care of it, I hope you could find her relative and return the heirloom to the rightful owner." (Geoffrey) said with delight.

Handing over the black wooden box to Kiro, Geoffrey thought for a moment, before pa.s.sing out another object.

"Here, also take this, It will be helpful for you to find her relative using her portrait." (Geoffrey) handed over a piece of animal skin, with a beautiful woman drawn In it.

Kiro looked at the portrait of the beautiful woman for a moment. He couldn't help to admire her beauty, sadly such a beauty died horribly.

"Okay, chief Geoffrey, I will do my best to find her relative, her name is Koha, right? But aren't you afraid that I will run with this precious heirloom and never return?" (Kiro)

"I may be old, but my eyes are still young just like before, I wouldn't be wrong with my judgment. Well even if you turn out to be like that, I could only blame myself for being a senile Old man." (Geoffrey)

Seeing how the Old Chief Geoffrey trusted him this much, Kiro could only helplessly nod in agreement.
