  10 years later

  Knock knock

  "Sir special delivery for room 321" a young man working as a delivery man trying to earn as much money until he go to college.

  "Oh thanks where do I sign" A women thanks the man deliverying as she thought how quite good looking the man were.

  "Here you go ma'am" as he handed out papers.

  That young man was Joshua who was brought to the orphange as the authority don't have any info they have on Joshua.

  The only info they got was that he speaks different language, they have tried everything from sending pictures of the boy on nearby city and internet to sending a professional linguist to identify where he came from.

  But even the linguist was baffled by the boy as he didn't know what the boy's language was and only found other closely similar language that are knowhere close to location where the boy was found.

  Only after they taught their language to the boy and decripted the boy's language they decided to stop the investigation. As the boy keep telling them weird old noble story where the boy was nobleman from the world Mundo.

  They deemed the case closed and left the boy at the orphanage in hope that he will be adopted in the future. But nobody adopted the boy as joshua was learning the culture and language of this world trying to adopt in the foriegn land making him unsociable to others when he can't communicate with them.

  Now 18 years old joshua had adopted his new life as a delivery man trying to earn money as he was living independently.

  He always dreamed of returning to his world and inheriting and reviving the noble household just like thise countless novels he read believing they were real.

  But reality is unforgiving as he don't even have capital to dream this big as he was just a fallen noble... no worst a delivery man scraping by.

  He had wish that he had drown in the sea and ended it all so that he would have not suffer anymore. But he was just lucky enough to survive for another day to just barely surviving the next, even if Joshua wants to end it all he never had the guts to kill himself.

  But choose not to stay negative as he poured all that energy to further study and understand knowledge hoping he may find a sulotion to go back home. Even if he can't find the sulotion he can use the knowledge and find better scholarship or merit-based financial aid.

  Because of this rarely he interact with anyone causing him to be busy studying and never making friends.

  Sometimes he was bullied for his weirdness and high grades. He had to learn to fight from websites or from others fight learning to defend himself. He even manage to extort pr blackmail his bullies making them transfer or leave him alone.

  He never stops pushing himself both body and mind. Believing that maybe he can go back and using knowledge and strenght to keep moving forward.

  After graduating and reaching 18 he move out, Found a job as a delivery man available he applied to earn money to pay rent and school supplies.

  As Joshua thinking about what his life difficulties, the mail truck he was driving was about to pass a cross road on a small hill when a speeding BMW car came out on the other side was about to hit him hard at the front of the truck.

  "Oh $#!+, this person not looking at the road."

  With quick decision making of Joshua he manage to avoid collision with the BMW but at the cost of crashing his truck on a power line.

  "You crazy bastard! Stay where you are give me a compesation for this mess." As joshua got out the truck after turing it off, he proceed to confront the man in the BMW.

  The man on the BMW seeing that Joshua was ok drive away trying to run away from this accident.

  "Stop you @$$... what the?"

  Creak crack

  As he was about to curse the man running away he heard something broke and he look back to find the power lines falling right into him. But as he about to be crush and electrucuted the space around him crack making a hole in space sucking him before he get killed.

  Leaving a crash truck and a broken power line on the road.

  Upon falling between space Joshua close his eyes in panic of what just happen then suddenly he felt relax and at home like he was meant to be here.

  Somehow he felt much stronger, not physically but intirely something else.

  Thinking about it weirdly he thought maybe he was about to go to his homeworld Terra and fullfill his dream.

  "Hahah I am about to go home and be the protagonist of this world, all that learning those books and novels from those years are about to be use for my conguest."

  Joshua laugh hard as maybe this his chance for succes when suddenly he was thrown out landing face first on a pile dirt.

  "Blegh, My face why did I landed on my fa....ahhhhh"

  As he about to pull himself up he felt his body itch like there is something crawling under his skin. The pain was bearable making him only spasm and grit his teeth, but for it to take 15 minutes felt like it was forever for him.

  This tale has been unlawfully lifted without the author's consent. Report any appearances on Amazon.

  "Haaa haaa, What was that? Did I got biten by posionous creature or something?"after looking himself closely he found nothing change other than sweating so much.

  "Never mind I should look where I landed."

  Dusting himself he found hinself to be in a forest .

  Base on all the novels he read he decided to arm himself in case he got attack. But the only thing he had was a pen, belt and pocket swiss knife.

  He decided to make a spear using the swiss knife to sharpen the tip even though he would like to strap the swiss knife as the tip using the belt for a stronger and sharper weapon.

  But decided not to as the swiss knife blade move to much and as the only usefull tool he had at the moment it was better not use it as the weapon.

  "Took me good time to make this spear better look for the suroundings to see in the are people" taking 20 minute to find a good straight stick and sharpening it.

  He decided to move now as he felt his surounding darkening decided to explore a bit before deciding to make fire if he can't find any human activity.

  Swishh...swishhh

  As he explore the forest he heard rush of water, he explore in that direction believing there would be human activity there even if there was not he can follow the water downstream as civilization and roads are often found near water sources.

  He found a small stream but no sign of humans he decide to follow the stream for a bit before deciding to make a fire instead as he did not how much time left for the sun to go down.

  He didn't want to sleep at cold night and dark night in an unknown place where man eating beast might show up.

  As he was contemplating how to start a fire he notice a bush shake and looking at that direction he found a eyes looking at him ready to ambush him.

  Scared Joshua rise his spear in the direction of the bush preparing to fight.

  The creature knowing that its prey spotted it decide to slowly show up revealing a 8 feet long tiger.

  Upon seeing the 8 feet long tiger scared the soul of joshua wishing it was something else. Luckily he knows how to deal the situation first he must stay focus on the tiger while slowly backing away.

  The tiger seeing that its prey backing slowly walk forward toward Joshua.

  "$#!+ HA BACK OFF CAT YOU WON'T LIKE ME TO KILL YOU!" As seeing the tiger stalking toward him decided to curse loudly while making himself look big rising his spear and arm to scare the tiger away.

  But the tiger did not back off but sprint at him with the intent to kill.

  "$#!+!"

  Panick tried to spear in the direction of the tiger with shaking hands. But miss as the tiger side step his attack and bit him on the left shoulder missing his neck while claw strike his sides.

  "AHHH $#!+$#!+$#!+"

  Feeling the pain on his shoulder and waist decided to take the swiss knife in his pocket and stab the tiger in the neck but found it not letting go so he stab it in the right eye.

  Roarrr

  Found that mouth of the tiger weaken decided to push away tearing away a bit of flesh off his shoulder spraying blood.

  Arggghh

  In pain and scared believing that he would die from bleeding decided to kill this tiger with him. Taking the spear on right arm and swiss knife barely working left arm holding tightly as not to slip or let go from pain and blood.

  The tiger blinded and bleeding right eye circle around the man ready to jump in again at any moment.

  Joshua losing strength decided to rush at the tiger before he lose strength believing it is better to die fighting than just waiting to be eaten.

  Both man and tiger rush at each other ready to kill each other but as they are about to clash.

  Woosh

  An arrow flew by Joshua hitting the tiger in the mouth making it close its mouth and flinch bleeding from the mouth.

  Joshua seeing the apportunity stab the spear right into same right eye of the tiger ending it's life but Joshua did not stop after stabbing the spear he took his swiss knife at his left hand and kept stabbing 6 times at the neck with madness only stopping as someone pilled him away as he pass out.

  Waking up he saw he was in old wooden room sleeping on hay bed and looking at his wound patch up and no longer in pain. Looking at the side he saw a man on the kitchen holding a bowl.

  Joshua knew he was in the savior's house after he was rescued from the tiger and blood loss. And based on Novels he read either it was a kind man or something is up, even if there was a catch he is wounded and hungry to fight back plus you can't just suspect someone who save you right?.

  The savior felt a gaze so he look over and saw that joshua was awake spoke something as he scoop some food on the bowl and handed over to joshua.

  "■●□□○□?●○□○●?⊙¤°"

  Joshua hearing the language suddenly knew that he was not from Terra or Mundo sadden him a bit.

  He spoke and pointed his mouth and the man mouth explaining that he don't speak his native language. Believing that the man understand what was he expressing the man copied him using body language by pointing the food then rubbing his tummy while saying some words.

  Joshua Understood what the man meant took it and ate the food. Seeing this it was simple rice gruel with meat he ate it quickly not minding how Inadequate taste were.

  ------

  He stayed for three days to learn from Bek Su his savior as he is used to studying new language in case he was put in the situation again while recovering from his wound. Further proving he did not waste learning languages for nothing.

  During his stay he met the chief lan Chi of the Qiunse Village, the village is known for fresh quinse fruits that are grown locally and sold to nearby city. The chief was kind enough to give me clothes to change and share whathe knows to him. Even though I explain I was just a lost nobody they didn't believe it base on my clothing I wear.

  Sunset Breeze Pass city is ruled by Weng Clan current family head Weng kai.

  Thinking about learning language better and more detailed spread of forces that should be noted at before visiting the city for more safety.

  The most amazing thing about this world is the existances of martial artists, not as powerfull as cutting mountain and skies with a sword or shooting the sun and moon down but powerful enough to be called super soldiers in Terra.

  Not only well develop martial arts but also unique healing skills that should impossible to work like just eating a healing pill healed wounds inflicted by the tiger.

  Even though it was a low version he ate it was able to heal him in three days leaving only scars. He just hope he did not become a druggy after eating the pill.

  While he was learning about he amazing things in this world, he started to recall how he teleported to another world. First was in the world of Mundo where he was nearly drowned before he was teleported and the second was on Terra where he was about to be crush and electricuted. Based on this two example he believed that by experiencing near death he would be teleported.

  Of course he would not try something that dangerous as risking my life hoping to teleported before he was killed in the last second.

  Not only that Joshua just experience nealy dying by tiger mauleing him to death but he was not teleported out of harms way.

  So he can rule out that harming himself is not the trigger to teleport. Maybe it was based on energy or time but waiting for 10 years to teleport again is bad news for me.

  Well it's not that bad he didn't have anyone he particullar care in Terra nor he was rich, the only problem is this world Di is so backward compareable to my original world.

  Having lived on modern appliances and ease of life on Terra he would be misrable for a while.

  So Joshua is trying every posible way if he can trigger teleporting actively and not passively. And he tried almost everything even the most stupid one.

  "OPEN SESAME"

  "ARISE"

  "HERES JOHNNY"

  "I'LL BE BACK"

  "CHINESE PASSPORT"

  Yelling for so long he got used to the embarrassment, plus nobody knows or understand him even Bek su ask he would tell it was just a prayer in his people language to God.

  Left alone in the back yard.

  Since those did not work he tried to the last one then he should accept that he is stuck here until his next journey.

  "Please let it work,please work please work..." as Joshua picture Terra and his home Mundo.

  Shh CRACK

  "Holy ... it work?" Why did it not work in during all those years living on Terra. This is not the only instance where he did something like this, everyday he always thought of returning to Mundo but nothing ever happen.

  Shhhh

  "Hmm did it got smaller? Ohh no" Beleiving that the crack somehow had gotten smaller, he panickly rush to the Crack.

  In the inside of the crack he felt that particular feeling of being at home and looking closely he saw two light like a star hanging in the night sky and one black hole.

  Somehow he understood that those two lights is the worlds Di and Terra where he had travelled, but he was thinking where is Mundo?

  The only left was that black hole where he would be transported to another world. Seeing that he can travel to another world, he headed to the star representing Terra even though he would like to choose Mundo but life is must go on.

  He was not sadden anymore seeing that he can't go back to Mundo at least he can start with this and maybe he can go back.

  Feeling that he was about to cross he braced for impact.

  CRACK

  This time landing on his feet he look around and saw nobody around.

  And that it seems this is where he left three days ago but something is different.

  "Hmm the truck should be here but gone and that powerline should be destroyed but somehow it is replaced or fix." And other than having a prominent dirty air nothing change.

  Seems like time did not stop here lets just hope that not too much had pass.
