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 rushed towards the necklace and grabbed it as soon as he saw that the necklace was about to be blown out of the window.
He closed the window and started inspecting the necklace.
"Hey, can you clarify whether this necklace is the one the old madame usually wears, the necklace that can be used to unlock the treasury?" Benjamin asked the System while he continued scrutinizing the necklace.
"Um… let me have a look." The System examined it as if it were an expert. After a few moments of silence, he then said: "Yes, I can confirm that this is the necklace."
Benjamin furrowed his eyebrows.
What was going on?
Were there tapping devices everywhere in this world? Michelle was the first to put one on his body, did the madame also do the same? Otherwise, what was the reason for her action?
Benjamin found it hard to believe that the old lady accidentally misplaced her necklace here.
Did she know about something Benjamin didn’t?
