Transmigrating to Modern Earth from the Future-Chapter 87: New Beginnings

As the final moments of the tutorial’s countdown ticked away, Will, Jake, and Qu Quan found themselves standing together in a vast and empty white void. The transition from the tutorial world to this empty expanse left them momentarily disoriented, but the familiar voice of the system soon echoed in their minds.

[Congratulations, challengers Qu Quan, Will, and Jake.] frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

The system’s voice was as robotic as ever, but the tone held a note of recognition.

[Your fellow challenger, Lumen, has emerged victorious over the Apex Mountain Guardian. As members of the same party, you are beneficiaries of his achievement.]

The three friends exchanged glances, their curiosity piqued by the system’s words. They had witnessed Lumen’s relentless pursuit of knowledge and power throughout the tutorial, but the mention of his victory over the final boss was a revelation.

[For your support and participation in this tutorial, you are granted the following reward: Obtained Title: Trickled Wealth (Rare) - Your luck of being in the same tutorial as a challenger that defeated the final boss of the tutorial deserves to be rewarded. This title grants you a permanent bonus of +75 to all stats.]

The system’s announcement left them momentarily stunned. A Rare title that granted a significant boost to their stats was an unexpected reward for their journey through the tutorial.

Qu Quan was the first to react, her eyes widening with amazement. "Did you guys hear that? We just got a massive stat boost thanks to Lumen’s victory!"

Will grinned, his excitement evident. "This is incredible! Lumen did it, and now we have this amazing title."

Jake, ever the pragmatic one, nodded thoughtfully. "We didn’t really earn this title though, did we? Lumen did all the work himself and we are benefitting from it, he probably doesn’t even know that."

With Jake’s opinion voiced, Will chimed in once more with a revelation that didn’t please any of the three.

"This means that we aren’t the only ones that received this gift from Lumen, but every survivor of our tutorial would have the same gift given to them..."

This was quite upsetting for them as it meant that not only their allies had received this, but so would their enemies, particularly Michael and his large group of followers.

Their concerns remained unanswered as the system’s voice continued.

[Welcome to the Fantasia Realm, challengers Qu Quan, Will, and Jake. Your journey in this realm has begun. Should you choose to return to Earth, you must establish your own city within the Fantasia Realm. Only then will the system reveal a way for your return. Your journey here has only just begun.]

With that, the white void began to shift, and the three friends felt a sense of transition as they were transported to the Fantasia Realm, their thoughts filled with anticipation and wonder.

In the blink of an eye they were transported into a lush field of plains that extended farther than their enhanced eyes could see. All around them stood tall and lush grass with not a single tree in sight.

As Lumen continued his journey through the Fantasia Realm, he couldn’t help but feel a growing sense of frustration. The Voidscale Wyrm had become a constant spectre, lurking at the edges of his perception like a shadowy guardian of the forest. Every time he ventured deeper into the woods, he encountered more E tier beasts, each one seemingly more formidable than the last, but the elusive D tier creatures remained beyond his reach.

The forest itself seemed to conspire against him, with dense underbrush and winding paths that led him deeper into the domain of powerful beasts. It was as if the Fantasia Realm itself was testing his resolve and determination.

Days turned into weeks as Lumen persisted in his search. He learned to read the signs of the environment, to recognize the telltale sounds and tracks of the Voidscale Wyrm and other high-level creatures. Whenever he sensed their presence, he veered away, avoiding confrontation and preserving his life.

The frustration he felt was undeniable. His goal of evolving to the D tier seemed more distant than ever, and he couldn’t help but wonder if he had underestimated the challenges of this new world. The Fantasia Realm was a place of wonder and danger, and Lumen was caught in a delicate balance between the two.

During his journey, he continued to train and refine his skills, pushing his limits to the maximum. He experimented with his Rare-level skill, ’Moment of the Conqueror,’ trying to gain better control over when and how it activated. The skill remained elusive, often activating in moments of crisis or intense focus, but Lumen knew that mastering it would be crucial to his survival in this realm.

Despite the challenges and setbacks, Lumen remained resolute. He had faced formidable foes and overcome insurmountable odds before, and this would be no different. His determination to evolve and become a stronger hunter burned brighter with each passing day.

In the quiet moments of rest and reflection, he would think back to his friends, Qu Quan, Will, and Jake. He hoped that they were finding success and safety in their own journeys through the Fantasia Realm. He knew that they would meet again someday, their paths converging in this mystical land.

With the lush and treacherous forest stretching out before him, Lumen pressed on, ready to face whatever challenges and discoveries lay ahead. The Fantasia Realm was completely brand new to everyone who ventured there for the first time, and Lumen was determined to reach the peak of this place, with his goals perhaps extending even farther than just the fantasia realm...

One fateful day, as he moved further into the periphery of the forest, he came upon a sight that filled him with a mix of relief and curiosity. A narrow, winding path emerged from the dense underbrush, and Lumen could see signs of civilization. The once chaotic and wild surroundings gave way to something different, something structured.

He approached the path cautiously, his senses on high alert. As he walked along it, he noticed the signs of intelligent beings—footprints, discarded items, and the remnants of a campfire. It was the first indication that there was more to the Fantasia Realm than the untamed wilderness.

Lumen followed the path with a sense of renewed hope. It was a stark contrast to the endless expanse of forest he had traversed for months. The path led him through a part of the Fantasia Realm that hinted at the existence of other travellers, perhaps even settlements or cities. The very idea filled him with wonder and curiosity.

As he journeyed further along the road, he couldn’t help but wonder about the people who had walked this path before him. Who were they, and what stories did they carry with them? Were there others like him, hunters and adventurers seeking to make their mark on this mystical world?

The forest around him began to change. The towering trees gave way to more open spaces, and the sounds of wildlife were replaced by a different kind of chatter—the voices of intelligent beings. It was a surreal experience for Lumen, who had grown accustomed to solitude and the company of beasts.
