Rooms that have yet been opened

Samson woke up feeling tired, his eyes wandered to the familiar scenery outside: a purple sky with strange 'cloud' swarming around. He was already used to seeing the 'sky' every time he wakes up and according to Quin it has been two week since the house goes airborne.

He did his morning exercise and went for breakfast after. His new body didn't need any of this of course but the seemingly ordinary routine helps keep his sanity intact. As for rousing suspicion from his moving house? It doesn't dare to peek into his room so he didn't have to worry. And since his senses have been 'connected' to the house in someway thus he could feel his supreme control over the whole house, blocking sight wherever he want to.

After finishing his bland meal, a dry piece of jerky with a cup of water, Samson left his plate in the sink. It'll be magically cleaned so he didn't need to worry about dishes. It was time he look around the house.

Over the past week Samson didn't check any new room in the house.

He was busy with mastering his new body.

Although new to the extraordinary world, his body has an innate talent in this aspect making it easier for him to adapt. Wavering his hand in a circular motion, a green bubble appeared in his palm. The bubble looks illusionary, it was expanding and retracting like a beating heart. Samson was calm as it wasn't the first time he dealt with this bubble.

He took a iron stick nearby and moved the bubble to cover it. The covered stick disappeared from view before appearing again, this time glowing mysteriously in a green color. Samson muse to himself: 'It really does look like a glow stick.'

This was his 'superpower' so to say. He tested it several times over the past week and realized that this bubble could turn normal items into extraordinary items, the effects only lasted for 2-5 hours before disappearing. When he tried to expand it, the bubble grew at an alarming speed and engulfed the entire house itself, establishing his connection to the house.

The bubble has different effects between normal items and extraordinary items. He tried covering the notebook and now he could summon and make it disappear at will.

All this testing distracted him from the house itself and only now did he remembered that this seemingly ordinary house was an extraordinary item in itself. Surely there's some danger hidden here and Samson didn't really want to sleep with some strange thing wandering around.

The house includes a total of 8 rooms and a basement. He has already been in the bathroom, the kitchen and his room. The living room and guest room didn't have anything of note either. That leaves Samson a total of 3 rooms he hasn't entered. They were all locked room thus he couldn't even peeks in if he wanted to. The house connecting let him vaguely sense things in it but detailed observations was difficult.

Samson sense the 3 room for any moving beings. Only after confirming there weren't any did he went and open his first door.

The room inside was a small storage room, about a dozen artifacts(or extraordinary items) laid inside. Samson eyes shone in excitement but the light soon dimmed and vanished away. Sure these artifacts are amazing in their own rights but all of them has something to do with fighting and does not help his situation in anyway. Still having something to protect himself gives a great sense of security and he willed 3 bubbles over a knife, a top hat and a rope.

The top hat that can turn him invisible appeared on his head and the unbreakable dagger laid on his belt. The crimson steel like rope tied itself around his right arm, it melted into his arm and turned itself into a tattoo.

Samson look at his arm satisfied and turn to look at the other 2 doors. Before he could open any of them however Quin voice came from the ceiling.

"Lord, we are about to leave the spiritual realm. The impact might be unpleasant."

Samson mind tenses up at the warning and mentally brace himself for whatever is coming. It didn't take long before a blinding light enter his eyes.

Countless sunlight poured down from the sky above, creating an illusion of a wall blocking all in its path. The wall was slightly purple in color giving off a sinister feeling.

Samson heart was beating fast but he remained expressionless on the outside, not wanting to show any weakness. He watches as the house slowly submerged itself in the light before it start shaking heavily. It felt as if an earthquake with the magnitude of 7 just hit the house.

He soon realized the 'earthquake' didn't effect him much and he could still maintain absolutely balance even while walking in such environment. It was interesting but also nauseous at the same time.

Luckily the shaking stopped after 8 minutes and the house returned to its usual calm as if nothing has happened. Samson look at the outside scene with interests. He was shocked once more by the new scenery.

In the spiritual realm, the sky was blocked by a fog making it a blurry blob of white in Samson eyes. Now the sky was in full view and of course the sun too. The sun was like the one he was used to, except for the smaller ball of light circling it.

The sun that should be the brightest has another miniature sun near it. The miniature sun was moving at a very fast pace, evident by the fact that he could see it visibly moving down below. It gives him an uncomfortable feeling.

The outside scenery was now much less bizarre compared to the spiritual realm. The sky was now white and blue, looking more 'clean' and 'safe'.

Suddenly his interest was piqued, he wanted to see what's the ground is like. Quin spoke before he could tell his request.

"Lord, we have arrived at the location. Do you want to go down by yourself or stay in the palace?"

"Let's put the palace down here, I'm slightly interested in this place."

"Got it lord."

The house quickly descended at breakneck speed and soon rooted itself in the ground. The whole thing it didn't affect Samson at the slightest. He took a step out the door and took a deep breath.

He has been wanting this, fresh air!
