Darkness swept past him, and Sato then appeared in his cabin.
He returned to his world just like how he arrived at the anime world.
Nothing has changed.
It looks like he was only gone for a moment.
If it's not because he can still summon the system, he would have believed everything was him hallucinating.
He stepped out of the cabin, and a forest entered his view.
Yep, he lives in a forest.
Why?
You want to know why?
Fine, listen carefully.
So the story goes like this.
His parents died, and he was left to live with his mother's relative in Forest Hill.
The relative is Uncle Ben and Aunt May.
One day, a criminal broke into their house and killed Uncle Ben and Aunt May.
Before uncle Ben died, he left him a few words: "Remember, with great power comes great responsibility."
Ever since then, he had been living in this small cabin in Forest Hill.
Like hell, someone will believe that!
Do you take readers as monkeys?
Do you think they are so stupid?
If you want to make a lie then make a better one!
Believe it or not, it's your choice, but Sato believes it.
Angry?
Come and bite him if you can!
Ohh, right, almost forgot.
He never told what his grandfather's last words were, right?
He will never forget those last words: "Stop shaking the ladder u little sh*t."
Speechless?
Alright, let's leave those aside.
He will now talk about his world.
The year is 2051.
Because of global warming, a lot of disasters occurred all over the Earth.
To fight this, all the country leaders choose to unite.
Every human was relocated to Asia because it's the biggest continent. The other continent was left to let nature return its own balance. Of course, humans also put in the effort to help nature recover its balance.
Asia has been renamed UCH, which stands for United Countries of Human.
One more thing
The Antarctic desert, it's being used for spaceships to throw resources found from space. Not really throw, but you understand what he meant.
Space technology has advanced by a huge step. Although the other technology has remained the same as the year 2021.
That's everything about his world.
Sounds dull, right?
Time to move on.
Right now, he needs to figure out how much time has passed.
Sato ran out of the forest.
The forest he lived in isn't very famous, so very few visit this place.
This also makes it difficult for him to encounter people.
He had reached an asphalt road after running for a few minutes. It would probably take more than an hour if it was past him.
No car passed by.
Not only is this forest really unpopular, but the same goes for this road.
What a pain.
It looks like he had no choice but to drive to the city before he could encounter people.
He brought out a bike from his [Storage] and took a seat, and drove off.
If someone is wondering what kind of bike, it's Harley-Davidson slim Softail.
Let's move the time forwards.
Driving the bike, he saw a car parked on the side of the road.
It looks like the car has broken down since the hood is opened.
A male was trying to pull out tools from the trunk.
He slowed down and braked beside the car.
Hearing a motor sound stopping beside, the car owner raised his head from the trunk.
"Hey man, how's it going?" Sato looked at the distressed car owner.
"I felt something wrong with my car, so I am now trying to see if I can fix it," the car owner answered him.
He took a look at the motor and knew with a glance what's wrong with the car.
The car is running out of oil.
When a car runs out of oil, it will cease working, as it needs the engine oil to lubricate parts of the engine from grinding together and damaging the engine entirely.
But it looks like this owner had noticed something was wrong with the car and immediately parked the car. That action saved him from needing to buy a replacement.
The car is an old model, so when the car is running low on oil, there is no "check oil" dash light that will warn.
"You don't need to try to fix it. The car is running out of oil. Either you fill the oil or call for towing. There's nothing more you can do," he told the problem and the solution.
"Thank you, I guess I will need to call for a tow," said the car owner and brought out a smartphone from his pocket.
"Before you do, please tell me the date and time. I lost my phone." He interrupted the car owner.
"The time is half past 5, and the date is 9 June," the car owner replied as he put back his tools in the trunk.
"Thanks," he said, then drove past the car owner.
The 9th day of June.
He traveled and came back the same day. If you count the time, then he probably also comes back at the same time.
Did the time freeze?
It may have only slowed down so much that the time appeared to have frozen.
Does this also mean the time in the anime world also slowed down or froze?
He will get the answer once he is back in the anime world.
Right now, he needs to get stuff in this world.
Afternoon.
When he arrived at the city, the sky was already dark.
Driving in an alley, he stored his bike in the [Storage] and walked out.
It's time to rob.
Why didn't he just take valuable stuff from the anime world and exchange it?
It's the modern world. Everything is registered.
Change clothes, wrap the body, put on a mask and he is now ready to go.
His target is the electronic stores.
He broke through under the ground, so the alarm didn't trigger. But the noise was quite loud, so he needs to hurry up.
After sweeping the store of all useful things, he quickly escaped from the crime scene.
Changes to ordinary dress, he walked to the next target.
While walking on the street, a screen was reporting about a wanted man.
"...escaped and is currently on free foot. If you see the man in the picture, please be careful and keep a safe distance…"
Sato looked at the screen. There were also some other passersby watching.
A passerby girl A couldn't help saying in a scared voice, "I hope that person isn't in this city."
He glanced at the girl. It was a high school student.
Sato faced the girl with a meaningful smile and said, "Yes, that person is 'really' terrible. I 'really' hope he isn't in this city."
The girl turned her head to look at him. She was fascinated by his handsome face.
He gave her a smile and walked past her.
There's no time to pick up girls.
Like the first robbery, he changed his dress.
Arriving at the car store, he broke in and went to the armored car section.
He stored as many armored cars as his [Storage] could fit.
As for keys?
You can still get in and start a car without keys if you know how to do it.
What if the car starts with a mechanical key?
Then he will have no other choice but to remodel it.
He quickly dashed out of the store when the [Storage] was filled.
Walking around the city, he changed his dress from time to time.
Feeling assured that no one can or have discovered any clue, he decided to visit a coffeehouse that provided free wifi.
Inside a coffeehouse.
He ordered coffee and turned on the laptop he had stolen.
The first thing he did was download the anime Highschool of the Dead. Even its manga version and all related information were downloaded.
Afterward, he downloaded those most popular anime.
The download time is over 1 hour.
He has no choice but to stay and wait.
Meanwhile, he ordered some dessert.
The money used to pay the bill comes from the electronic store.
While waiting, he watched and read Highschool of the dead.
Taking a sip of the coffee, he thought, 'It has been a while since he had come back to his world. This was his first "peaceful" day since he got the system.'
