Chapter 1
An unfamiliar roof
After losing my consciousness for a good amount of time, I finally opened my eyes to see a white ceiling .
“At these kinds of situations, it’s always an unknown ceiling huh…”
When I tried to raise up, for the time being, I realized I was on top of a bed . This is definitely a hospital, isn’t…
I took a look over the place and noticed that there was a TV and raindrops outside the window .
This is not a different world, is it…
As I fell in thoughts, someone abruptly opened the door . Looking at that direction, I confirmed that they were my parents who seemed to be confused . Their expressions then instantly changed into a one of concern and they hastily approached me .
“Yato! Are you feeling okay? Are you in pain somewhere?!”
My mother asked me with a considerably worried face .
“Yeah, I’m fine, mom . ”
When I said that, my mother became relieved as she muttered: “thank god!” .
This year, she has already reached 40, but her appearance is that of a young beautiful 20 years old lady .
“Are you really okay? How are you feeling?”
This time it was my father who inquired me .
“Yeah, I’m feeling good, dad . ”
“I see, that’s great . ”
Same as my mother, My father is also older than 40, however, despite his age he still quite good-looking . Anyone who would witnesses the both of them together can’t help but imagine them as a couple of young lovers . Which I found deceiving .
“I’m glad that you’re okay . I was frightened when I first heard that you were collapsing alone in the classroom . ”
“That’s right . Yato, what in heaven happened in there? Where did your classmates go?”
I closed my mouth for an instant to my father’s question . This is bad, we’re already talking about that!? What to do?
“You are Kamiya Yato, I’m I correct . ”
Just when I was about to speak, this time, several old men made their way inside the room . They’re police detectives, apparently .
“I am Onigawara from the metropolitan Police Department . Is it possible for you to answer some questions?”
That’s a police officer for sure .
And the questions are probably about my classmates teleporting into a different world .
But how should I answer him? There’s no way he would accept a reply like ‘they went to another world!’ .
I began contemplating the circumstances .
“Please stop! Yato has just woke up! I’d like you to leave for now please!”
My mother furiously yelled at the officers .
The officers seemed to be taken aback by her shout and possibly because they considered the tension of the mood, they decided to honestly drawback .
“I understand . Well then, we shall be coming back another day . ”
The several officers left the room as a group . My mother is not from the type who gets angry too often, but once she does, things become quite scary . I still remember how frightening it was when I was once seriously rebuked by her .
I remained silent as watched the officers leaving .
“By the way, what time is it now?”
I asked as I started to restlessly look around the place for a clock .
“It’s 4:00 pm . Don’t worry, it’s still the same day . ”
My father was the one who answered .
Seriously? Doesn’t that mean I only slept for a light 2 hours?
I barely stopped the shock from reaching my face .
“Come to think of it, Where’s Karen?”
“Karen-chan is taking care of the house . She was really worried when she heard about your break down . ”
It seems that Karen didn’t come with my parents .
And yeah, Karen is my little sister .
She’s a pretty middle school sophomore taking after my mother .
Our relation is not that good, but neither that bad . In brief, we’re just normal siblings .
For that Karen to be worried about me, Onii-chan is quite happy .
“okay, we should go now . ”
Uttered my father as he checked his watch .
“Ah, is it already time? Well then, Yato, we’re going back to work now, okay?”
“Alright, have a good time . ”
Like that, my parents left the room . Righ after they closed the door, I took a deep breath and laid down in the bed . ”
That’s right, I need to check on my status .
Kamiya Yato Age: 15 Male Race: human Lv1
Physical points: 500/500
Magic points: 300/300
Skills
Appraisal- super growth- Magic creation- Sleeping strength magic
It’s really there . I thought it was just a dream .
I concentrated my sight on the new Sleeping strength magic skill .
Sleeping strength magic:
Automatically casts a type of magic a few moments before falling asleep which allows acquiring experience points . The acquired experience points accumulate in proportion to the sleeping time .
Ooh, This is a very convenient magic .
Getting stronger only by sleeping is a perfect skill for me . Without any further delay, I tried to use it by falling asleep, but suddenly, something like a chant started floating inside my head .
Should I chant this line, maybe?
“Exsleep”
At that instant, I sensed as if I was faintly shining and my body somehow felt warmer . At this conditions, I think I can sleep quickly .
As I was thinking about that, I wrapped myself inside the cushion and fell into a deep slumber .
I will leave out the part where I spent a good amount of time accepting police interviews and chased by the press corps .
Anyway, an entire year has passedーーーーーーーAnd I graduated from being a middle school student .
