Jay's Troubles

"Hahahah!!! What the hell happened to you? HAHAHA!!!" Hellson laughed and laughed as he saw Jay getting 'transformed' by the village leader.

"This never happened okay! This is just a dream..." Jay kept saying this to himself as he looked at the mirror in front of him.

His hair was now brown in color and reached his lower back. His face and skin became smooth to the touch. He even had two fake boobies on his chest. Jay felt very uncomfortable with this disguise he had on him.

"Hmm... I think your looks are good enough for now." The village leader said as her lips curved into a smile and she brought her face really close to Jay's.

"What is happening..." Jay did not know what the hell is this crazy woman thinking of now. Then suddenly, due to his 'manly' impulses, his 'little brother' stood up.

"*sigh... I guess we need to make some alterations below..." The village leader said as she took out a scissors with a jagged blade.

"NO!"

Jay quickly refused the crazy woman. There was no way he would let anyone cut off his precious.

"Pfft. You're no fun at all." The village leader said as she pouted and kept all of the things she used on Jay.

"Anyways, if you are going to live in my village, I should probably introduce myself. My name is Zena. If you have any questions regarding who knows what, just go to our village library."

...

After Zena was done speaking, Jay quickly bid her farewell and just wanted to stay away from her.

"Good thing that none of my friends and guildmates are here..." Jay thought to himself as he walked around the village.

"Miss druidess! Miss druidess!"

Talia suddenly ran up to Jay and was shocked when she saw his completely new look.

"My sis and I finished constructing you a new house which is just nearby the villager leader's house. We also provided you a single bed, a wooden table and chair, and a storage chest which currently has some water and bread."

Jay was surprised how hospitable Talia and Tania were. But he got chills all over his body again when he learned that his new house was near Zena's house.

"Hey, do you know where the village library is?" Jay quickly asked since it was still a bit early before nighttime.

"The village library is over there." Talia said as she pointed at her left, where 5 of wooden establishments were lined up neatly and looked like a longhouse.

"As for your new house, it is over there." Talia said as she pointed at a small wooden house which was between Zena's house and the village library.

"Wow. How convenient..." Jay thought in his mind and immediately thanked Talia before heading towards the library.

...

--- Village Library

There were bookshelves lined on the walls of the library. On the center were wooden tables and chairs. The place was lit up by small lanterns on the ceilings.

"Hey there, you're new here right?" A little girl with blond hair and normal villager clothing walked up to Jay as he entered the library.

"Yeah..." Jay spoke but something doesn't feel right. "Just what did Zena do to me... even my voice is changed to a female version..."

"I see. As the librarian, let me tell you something you should know. Bringing books out of the library without my permission is not allowed. Understood?"

Jay nodded his head but was wondering how could a little girl run a library on her own. Setting that thought aside, he quickly walked towards a bookshelf and grabbed a random book.

But the moment he did, Jay realized that he cannot read anything on it.

"They have a different language huh..." Jay sighed and wondered if he could learn from someone. The first person on his mind was Talia, but he felt that it was a bit wrong to depend on her for everything just because she was the first one he met in this plane.

"Little girl..." Jay tried calling the librarian but instead of a warm approach, a thick book flew towards his head.

"That's Miss Librarian for you. Hmph!" The little girl said as she pouted and looked at Jay hatefully.

"Miss librarian."

"Thank you. Now, what do you need?"

"Can you teach me how to read and write?"

When the little girl heard this, she immediately laughed and rolled on the floor.

"Seriously?!! You came to the library and you do not know how to read or write? Then what are you even doing here?!! HAHAHA!!!"

Jay's face reddened a bit then after a few moments later, the little girl stopped laughing and saw that Jay was actually serious.

"Fine. The tutoring fee is 5 Rubies."

When Jay heard that there was a tutoring fee, he sighed and wondered where he was supposed to get the money.

"Never mind then. Can I just inquire about some stuff then since I cannot read anything at all?" Jay asked the librarian.

"Sure."

Jay asked the librarian a lot of things. He asked about the history of Ashnakara, the four goddesses, spirit power, magic, currency system, and so on.

"Woah! That's a lot of questions you have there. Are you sure you want to know all of that right now? It's getting dark out there." The librarian tried her best to dissuade Jay since it was a pain in the ass if she had to answer all of those questions.

"Don't worry. My house is just nearby. Even if this takes up until the next morning, I'm cool with it." Jay said, not knowing the true intentions of the librarian.

The librarian sighed and just decided to go through with it. She asked Jay to sit somewhere while she accompanied him.

...

"The world of Ashnakara, as you may already know, is an all-female world. Even the beasts of the wild are females.

There isn't really much to tell about the history of our world since most of the records about it are long forgotten. If you really want to learn about the history of our world, you should seek one of the four goddesses.

The Four Goddesses are the strongest and omnipotent beings in our world; The goddess of Peace, Evil, Order, and Chaos.

Spirit Power is something that comes in many forms, shapes, types, and levels. There is too much to cover on this topic so you have to explore it on your own in the future.

Even though magic can be used in our world, it is a complete taboo since it violates certain rules set by the Four Goddesses. But even though this is the case, magic is pretty useless against Spirit Power.

The currency we use in this world are Rubies and Rubygems. Rubies is just a red paper with golden symbols on it, which is drawn by the 'Golden Dragon Bank.' Rubygems come in the form of stones with varying sizes."

Jay cleared up some thoughts he had but there was one thing he needed to do the most. To find a way to get stronger. The only way to do that in Ashnakara was for him to learn how to use Spirit Power.
