In the afternoon on the densely packed streets of the city, a young man in a school shirt just got off a bright red bus.
The young man had quite a high posture with messy hair. His face was not handsome, but it was also not ugly. Well, like the standard man in general.
The young man had a slightly brownish white skin. When he just got off the bus, the first thing he did was look at the clock on his phone.
"It's 5 in the afternoon? Hah, that manager gave me too much work. I'll go straight home and rest. But before that." said the young man in an indifferent tone.
Without speaking again, he took an earphone from his pocket and began to attach it to his right and left earphones.
After tuning music from his cell phone, the young man immediately walked home.
The young man was named Wang Lin, a second-year High School student. He has lost both his parents since he entered Junior High and he currently lives alone in a house left by his parents.
Because of that, Wang Lin was forced to work part-time to support his daily life.
Since Wang Lin was a smart and intelligent man, he was awarded a scholarship and free of tuition for three years of study.
Despite that, Wang Lin was still unable to meet his daily needs with just the wages from working part-time.
Shortly before returning home, Wang Lin stopped by at a bookstore he frequented.
That is because the bookstore provides a cheaper price compared to other bookstores.
"Excuse me..." The sound of bells rang as Wang Lin opened the shop door.
As Wang Lin's gaze swept forward, the look in his eyes stopped on the figure of the beautiful girl mopping the shop floor.
When the girl heard the sound of the entrance bell, the girl immediately stopped mopping and greeted Wang Lin's arrival with a smile.
"Oh, that's you regulars. Did you come to buy another book today?"
The shopkeeper was a very beautiful girl with black hair neatly tied behind. He was four years older compared to Wang Lin, he was also one of the reasons Wang Lin often came to such bookstores.
Seeing the smile on the pretty girl's face, Wang Lin slightly blushed and shyly nodded his head.
He is a normal guy, however he will be very happy to see the smile of the girl he likes.
"Y–Ya, is there a new series of novels that already exist today?" Wang Lin said as he turned his gaze in another direction.
"Oh, do you mean the Supreme War God Novel?" The beautiful girl asked.
Wang Lin unceremoniously nodded immediately, "Yes, does the last series of the novel already exist?"
"Hmm, let me check first." The beautiful girl placed the mop near the wall while she walked to the cashier's desk to pick up a book.
"Meet... You were lucky enough that, three days ago, the last series of books was published. You can look for it on the 4th shelf of the seventh row."
Hearing the beautiful girl's words, Wang Lin became extremely excited. He has waited long enough to read the latest series of his favorite novel entitled Supreme War God.
Although the novel was not that popular nor did it have many readers, but Wang Lin was very fond of the novel.
Whether it's the character, plot, writing style, and some other elements it's all neatly arranged.
Even Wang Lin who had read many cultivation-themed novels had to admit that Supreme War God was the best novel he had ever read.
Moreover, the unexpected plot he had every chapter of the novel greatly made Wang Lin curious to read its continuation.
"Well, what's the price for this novel?" Wang Lin returned to the cashier table while handing over the book in his hand.
He did not know how much the novel was worth because it was not listed in the cover section of the novel.
The beautiful girl smiled sweetly as she handed the book back to Ling Chen.
"Because today is my sister's birthday, so I'll pay for it."
"T–But..."
Not until Wang Lin finished his words, his mouth was already covered by the index finger of the shopkeeper girl.
"Take care..."
Wang Lin hesitated for a moment, but not for long, he finally accepted the girl's gift.
"Thank you brother, I will definitely return this in the future." Wang Lin bowed his body in thanks.
After which, Wang Lin walked out from inside the store then ran towards his house.
"Ha, he's a pretty sweet guy. If it wasn't for that, I might have made it mine."
The beautiful girl smiled for a moment then immediately picked up the mop and began to proceed to mop the shop floor.
Meanwhile, Wang Lin who had arrived in front of his house hurriedly took off his shoes and also his school uniform.
He did not even bathe first and immediately ran up the stairs and headed to his room.
"Ha, it's time I continue reading this series after almost a year of no news. I hope the ending of this novel doesn't disappoint." Wang Lin enthusiastically began to open the first page.
He continued to flip through the sheets without realizing that night had come.
As Wang Lin was immersed in reading the novel's story, he finally decided to read the novel to the last page.
The time on the wall clock is right at 11 p.m. He closed the last page of the novel and let out a long sigh.
His expression was really good with a bright smile on his face.
"Damn, that last fight was truly epic. Even the epilogue section is very good. It's not in vain I waited a year to wait for this series." Wang Lin spoke to himself.
"God, I'm too drowning reading this novel. I have to go to bed and wake up early."
Wang Lin went to the bathroom to clean his body, he turned off the entire house lights and went to sleep.
In the morning on the streets of the city which was quite quiet, Wang Lin walked casually while wearing earphones in his ears.
As Wang Lin was about to arrive at the bus stop, he saw a crowd of people running as if being chased by something.
"Eh, excuse me what–..."
"Get away the idiot, if you don't want to die then run!"
Shouted the middle-aged man who smashed into Wang Lin's body.
As if understanding what was happening, Wang Lin also came running along with the crowd.
But his steps came to a halt when he heard a scream from a woman.
He knew that voice because he heard it almost every day..
"Damn it!!.."
Wang Lin barged through the crowd with a worried expression. Only when he had passed through the crowd of those people did he clearly see a man carrying a blood-filled knife as well as a girl lying helplessly on the ground.
Both of his legs were bleeding as if they had been injured on purpose.
"Kekeke, torturing a pretty girl like you really excites me. After I scratch your whole face, I will turn to your body, then just kill you. Isn't that ... PLEASANT??"
The girl did not reply, her face was pale and she did not even dare to speak.
He closed his eyes and said, "Please... Somebody..."
Right at that very instant, he heard the voice of a familiar man in his ears.
"Snake off, I'll hold him."
As he opened his eyes, he looked at Wang Lin. A customer stays at his bookstore.
He never expected that he would be saved by her when everyone ran in fear.
Shifting his gaze, he saw the assassin waking up while holding his head.
"You fucking guy!! Die..."
The assassin dashed towards Wang Lin, while drawing a knife to Wang Lin's body. "Go quickly!!"
Wang Lin dodged the knife attack quite well, but in fact he was purely dodging it with luck.
"Fleurr... You rascal!! Die up! Die up! Die!."
The assassin muttered the same thing over and over again, but every time he swung his knife, Wang Lin could always dodge his attack.
Bang!!!
A shock blow struck his head, blood flowing out through his left eye.
It really made the killer very angry.
"Damn it, die boy!!..."
The assassin was moving much faster than before, even before Wang Lin could react, the knife in the killer's hand was already piercing right in his stomach.
"A... Khakka..." Blood spurted out from Wang Lin's mouth, he fell down with pain running through his entire body.
"Yahuahaha... Sengikao being an entrepreneur, this is the end for you." Said the killer.
He did not kill Wang Lin but sat quietly enjoying Wang Lin trying his hardest to stand up.
Bang!!!
His body flew before falling helplessly by the roadside. His mouth was spitting out more blood.
His head feels very dizzy, "Haa... Whether this is the end, I have always done my best to date. But the girl's interest survived, somehow I'm not so sorry."
"Both of my parents also died 5 years ago, I have no regrets anymore in this world."
Before Wang Lin lost his consciousness, he heard the sound of gunshots and also the voice of a familiar girl in his ears.
The girl cried as she continued to tell Wang Lin to stay alive.
"Hiks.. Hiks, please hold on a little longer, the ambulance will come to pick you up."
Wang Lin with a hint of his consciousness smiled, he did not say anything but the girl already understood what Wang Lin wanted to say.
Slowly, Wang Lin's gaze faded and then turned completely dark.
At that time, there was a shocking wave in a world that looks much different than Earth.
Well, in that place. Wang Lin's soul transmigrated into the body of someone living deep in the interior of the mountain.
