"I didn't expect such an opening."
In a narrow room, a boy who looked to be around 12 or 13 years old sat on a wooden bed, coughing incessantly. He was wearing a gray short-sleeved shirt.
The boy's appearance could be considered delicate, but his clothes were a little shabby, with many patches on them. He looked very weak.
Even so, the boy's eyes were very bright. They were pure black, like a pair of beautiful black gems.
"So the so-called identity concealment was just a random body for me."
Reaching out and looking at his small hands, Adil felt a sense of weakness and helplessness that he had never felt before. He was speechless. "The body of a twelve-year-old boy. Should I be happy or sad?"
He shook his head and ordered the A.I. Chip in his mind, "A.I. Chip, analyze my body's stats."
Even though it was just a simple Soul Traversal, the A.I. Chip was also attached to his soul, so it followed him.
This was one of the few pieces of good news.
[Name: Adil Farcus. Strength, Agility, Vitality, Spiritual Force: 167.4. Realm Power: 2,871.]
"So weak."
Looking at his current stats, Adil shook his head slightly, feeling a little helpless.
This body's stats could be said to be the weakest he had ever been. However, considering that the owner of this body was only a 12-year-old boy, this was understandable.
"Let me see the memories of this body."
Closing his eyes gently, Adil's powerful spiritual force was mobilized in an instant, and he flipped through the memories that had settled in his mind.
Very soon, many images were flipped through in his mind. From birth until now, all the experiences of growing up were seen at a glance, and nothing was left out.
This was a very ordinary little boy who had grown up in a single-parent family, living with his older sister and father.
The boy's name was Xim, a very ordinary name.
In the boy's memories, Adil also discovered something interesting.
This little boy's body had not been directly taken over by him. Instead, he had taken advantage of the boy's death.
As for the cause of the boy's death, it was also very interesting.
Xim's father was a police officer, and was usually in charge of tracking criminals all over the city.
During an arrest, Ximu's father brought back a blood-stained statue of a woman. Because it was made of iron, it was worth some money, so he brought it back.
And this blood-stained statue of a woman was the real culprit behind Ximu's death.
"Interesting."
Recalling his memories to the end, Adil opened his eyes, and a smile appeared on his face. "This world doesn't look simple."
Quietly getting out of bed, he opened the door of the narrow room and walked out into the living room.
In the living room, there was an iron statue with a middle-aged woman engraved on it.
The statue looked quite crude, and on the statue, there was a middle-aged woman wearing sacrificial clothes. She seemed to be laughing loudly, and her eyes were quite large.
"Eh?"
Looking at this iron statue, Adil was stunned.
On the statue, the dark black bloodstain was gone. It was as if it had never been there. There was no trace of it at all.
"What's the situation?"
Holding the statue, Adil carefully examined it, but he still didn't find any traces. Only then did he put it down with a frown.
Of course, it wasn't that he didn't find anything.
After using the A.I. Chip to examine it, Adil discovered that the statue was not made of iron, but a very unique material.
"If I bring it to the Magus World, it should be worth some magic crystals."
Putting the statue down, Adil shook his head lightly.
At this moment, hurried footsteps could be heard from outside, and the door was pushed open by a man.
It was a rather tall middle-aged man with a beard. He wore a grey uniform and held a small bag in his hand as he hurriedly walked in.
"Father."
Seeing the man, Adil didn't show any abnormalities. Like how Ximu had done in the past, he directly welcomed him.
"Mm, Ximu, you're back."
Seeing Adil standing in the living room, Coral's expression softened. "Where's Tilly? Is she back yet? "
"Not yet." Adil shook his head, his expression a little wooden.
"Damn it! I'm going to beat her to death when she comes back tonight! " Coral's expression immediately turned gloomy. Coupled with his fearsome face, he looked a little terrifying.
However, he seemed very friendly towards Adil. After tidying up his things, he even left a few coppers on the wooden table.
"Take these copper coins. Later, go out and have a good meal."
He looked at Adil and earnestly instructed him, "I have a mission tonight and won't be back until later. Remember to go to class."
After saying this, he ignored Adil and grabbed a bag, walking out with large strides.
He didn't notice that Adil was frowning as he watched his back.
"This inauspicious aura … What has it been tainted by?"
Looking at Coral's departing figure, Adil frowned slightly, feeling that something was amiss.
Even though his body was unprecedentedly weak, and the magic power in his body had completely disappeared, he was still a rank 3 Magus. Even if it was just his powerful spiritual force, it was enough for him to discover many things.
Even though they hadn't been in contact for long, Adil could sense the inauspicious aura from Coral's body. It was powerful and active, and it gave off a nauseating aura that could be sensed from far away.
Before he could think too much, he felt a strong sense of hunger, making him feel somewhat helpless.
"I'll take care of this body first."
Fiddling with the coppers in his hand, Adil shook his head and walked out of the room.
A cool and refreshing aura came from the outside world, accompanied by a gentle ray of sunlight.
This was an old street, and houses were neatly arranged here.
There were often people walking by, wearing all sorts of clothing. However, they all seemed to be in a hurry, and no one was in the mood to stop.
"A familiar yet unfamiliar city …"
Looking at the street in front of him, Adil inexplicably thought of his first life.
Apart from the fact that the street was old and there were no cars on the road, the scene in front of him was very similar to the world in his first life, just that it was a bit older.
Following the road in his memory, he walked to another street and entered a shop.
"Look who's here." A familiar yet unfamiliar voice came from the front.
Seeing Adil walk in, a middle-aged man with a sturdy figure greeted him enthusiastically, "Hey, Little Sim, why are you here so early today?"
"There's no one at home." Following his past habits, Adil maintained a polite smile, looking a little shy and introverted, "Please help me get a portion of bread."
"Alright, right away!" The middle-aged man smiled, then turned around and walked into the kitchen at the back.
Not long after, a portion of black bread was served, along with a small bowl of vegetable soup.
"Consider the soup my gift to you." Facing Adil's doubtful expression, Li Da laughed heartily and walked away.
"He's a good person."
Retracting his gaze and looking at Li Da's back, Adil smiled, then started eating.
Unexpectedly, although the bread here was very hard, the taste wasn't too bad. It was not bad when paired with a bowl of vegetable soup.
After finishing the meal, Adil felt a bit better and stood up to pay the bill.
"Looks like I have to think of a way to get some money."
Walking out of the restaurant, looking at the remaining two copper coins in his hand, Adil pondered, then looked towards a corner at the side.
In that corner, a few men dressed in black were surrounding a young man who came from another place and slowly walked into the corner of the alley.
Looking at this scene, Adil couldn't help but smile, then under the astonished gazes of the surrounding people, he directly walked towards that corner.
Not long after, when he walked out again, he had a few more silver coins and a large pile of copper coins.
"This should be enough for now."
Feeling the weight of the money bag on his body, Adil walked back to his room, took a few things from inside, then went out.
After walking for more than an hour, he finally reached his destination.
It was a school that looked pretty good, there were a few words written in this world's language in front of the building's main gate.
"Holy Grace Academy …"
Lightly raising his head, looking at the academy in front of him, Adil walked into it.
It was about time for class, around the main gate, students were walking in and out, there were both males and females.
Silent, Adil observed for a while. The age of the students that walked in and out in front of him seemed to be quite young, there were children that were the same age as Adil, and there were also teenagers that looked to be around 15 or 16 years old.
However, looking at their clothing and other aspects, the majority of the students' family conditions seemed to be pretty good.
"Xim, why are you here so early?"
Walking into the classroom, looking at Adil who was sitting on his seat, someone was a little surprised.
It was a teenager that looked to be around 13 or 14 years old, slightly older than the age of Adil's current body. He had a head of black hair, a pair of brown eyes, and his entire person seemed to be very lively. At this moment, his attention was shifted to Adil.
This was Kus, a friend of this body of Adil's previous body, who usually took care of him.
"There's nothing at home, so I wanted to come early to read."
Sitting on his seat, looking at Kus who was in front of him, Adil smiled, then took out a book from his desk.
"Read?" Kus had a face of disbelief, staring at Adil a little suspiciously, "Did you hear some news, that's why you came here so early today?"
"What?" Adil said casually.
Just as he finished speaking, a series of clear footsteps suddenly came from outside the door, attracting Kus' attention.
