Kubei was just an ordinary pencil and button pusher working a day job, hating his boss and making horrible speeches when one day he fell asleep after pushing an all-nighter. When he woke up, he was bound to a chair, facing three creepy robed women and in a body way too young and way too weak to be his own. As he slowly came to, he realized that he was no longer in the same universe as he was before. He had teleported to the Kingdom of Helius, where an all-powerful church rules its lands and wages war against the elusive group known only as Mages. Armed with an incredibly cocky neural interface that just won’t shut up and his own sheer wit, our MC will find himself not just fighting to survive, but maybe even something bigger than himself.
Benjamin laid on his bed and suffered from the aches all over his body. He had the urge to use the Healing Waterball.
But he dare not risk it because the church was too near.
When he recalled the training he had in the morning, he was still traumatized. As a demonstrator for hand-to-hand combat, the coach did not exert too much force, but it was already agonizing for Benjamin.
It was even worse with the rest of the recruits.
Although he was not a punching bag and could retaliate in the training using the techniques Dean taught them, Benjamin was still weaker than the other recruits. He could not defeat all of them.
The bruises on him would probably take a fortnight to subside.
Well, if he were to stay positive, he did learn quite an amount from this.
People always say that to learn how to fight, you first need to be beaten, right? Benjamin could only comfort himself as such.
