"Let me formally introduce myself, Shiroi fourth general of the moon Asura clan. I want to apologize first as it was actually my fault that you were knocked unconscious. Every warrior of the Moon Asura clan has a life energy that we circulate that grants us extraordinary powers, those that do not circulate Qi don't have a natural defense for it so it can be quite harmful for the body. Are you following?"

I nodded my head slowly but inside my mind was chaos. I had long come to terms that wherever I was currently was not a normal place and I couldn't wrap my head around that concept, alas seeing is believing.

I would be a fool not to believe Shiroi as I had seen him do extraordinary things so casually. Wait...he said I'm part of their moon clan or whatever, could I do these things too?

"Good, now you are familiar with Qi and the concept, you should also know that there are six ranks of Qi mastery that separate warrior from warrior. This is determined by something called a "Inner Core" and the stage you are at of mastery depends on the density and how many layers there are around your inner core. It goes as following:

Rank 1- soldier stage

Rank2- warrior stage

Rank3- Conqueror stage

Rank4- Emperor stage

Rank5- Demi-god stage

Rank6- Divine Calamity stage

There are only six stages but the power gap between each stage is like heaven and earth. Do not ever fight someone above your stage in a life and death, always run. Survive and fight another day, do not die a dog's death due to arrogance."

Shiroi stated with slightly more Asuran force leaking out of his aura. "Boy ,now that explanation is done could you please explain how you ended up on the Exodus continent?"

I gathered my thoughts and tried my best to give a detailed account everything that happened not omitting anything. I explained how I'm from somewhere called earth and that I had just graduated high school when me and two friend's decided to take narcotics.

I told him that I suddenly started falling in darkness for God knows how long and when the darkness cleared he and Nico appeared before me.

"And that's all I can remember..." Shiroi sat in silence with a thoughtful look on his face for what felt like an eternity before he finally broke the silence.

"From what I can gather, you are a halfling and earth born at that. We Asura are four dimensional beings and that grants us numerous racial abilities and benefits, one of them is the usage of 80% of your brain's functions by the time you reach Emperor stage.

You are not even Rank1 but you should have an abnormal amount of brain usage among your peers on earth. The "narcotic" that you mentioned might've triggered something in your brain akin to an outer body experience. I believe your main body is still on earth and you split your soul to come here.

It is either this or you somehow managed to make a tear in the void and traverse numerous dimensions to get here, that is also impossible because only Demi-god stage and above can traverse the void. That leads me to believe the former."

Listening to his explanation left my mouth agape. 'If this is true wouldn't everyone think that I'm in a coma?' 'Jake must feel like its his fault, I must get back!'

"If... If this is true, why did this outer body experience take me here and away from earth?" I asked with my heart beating out my chest. Shroi smiled gently then spoke.

"Your bloodline of course, each family has different traits and special powers individual to their bloodline. I only know one family with powers to manipulate the soul; it is said to be the strongest bloodline of all the Moon clan." I gulped apprehensively. 'Could I meet Dad here?' Shiroi looked at me deadpan and said "His majesty, Titus Zerxes II. The royal family's bloodline."

"HUH?!!"
