Chapter 8 Meet my students

Sunz suddenly wakes up from a dream, looks around the darkness surrounding him, checks the time on his phone it shows 3 a.m. and mumbles ( you can’t shove half your arm through a roster mouth ) then goes back to sleep vampire position.

After closing his eyes, Sunz wakes up standing in a village and said to himself (This is way too real am I dreaming or did I just get isekai) then suddenly someone taps his shoulder. Sunz turns around and in front of him was someone looking at the ground while wearing a Vietnamese straw hat. The person then looks up and said (so… we meet again) and it was Sword, Sunz's face is like wtf is happening.

Sunz: Ok answer my question with one word so I can know what's happening.

Sword: Sure!

Sunz: Died or Dream?

Sword: Dream!

Sunz: Why are you here and what is your outfit?

Sword: Talk and Skin.

Sunz: So we’re here for talking in dreamland while you look like a farmer and I look like I don’t belong here.

Sword: Well you probably wouldn’t like what I’m wearing. It's just uncomfortable, the hat is good tho. Let’s go sit down then continue the talk.

Sunz and Sword then walk into an inn and sit at a table near the windows.

Sunz: So what reason makes you want to invade or create this dream that I’m having right now?

Sword: Just to give you more information about this new world. Does it make you uncomfortable?

Sunz: No not at all, I’m just amazed of the new vision and this dream too. I have dreams where everything feels so real but this time the dream is like real life.

This tale has been pilfered from Royal Road. If found on Amazon, kindly file a report.

Sword: Well this place is not your dream but memories of the people who have the same ability as you.

Sunz: Hmm interesting so this is a pretty common ability if there are this many people.

Sword: On the contrary, this is one of the rarest abilities. A common ability is when there are more of me with different memories.

Sunz: But rare ability has two meanings if it's so powerful it being restricted to fewer users on the other hand if it's so weak there will be fewer users or even disappear.

Sword: Never thought about that, I guess you’re right but powerful ability also based on how the user use and evole it. Some abilities are powerful at start while some need time and the host.

Sunz: Why is the host important? I thought the skill just needs training and while training the host gets stronger, and so does the skill.

Sword: To most abilities that is true just like Bruce Lee’s quote “fear the man who practiced one kick 10000 times, not the man who practiced 10000 kicks once” but with me, that is not what I want to see in my new student. What I want to see is variety in my student, but don’t worry not everyone can be different if you can only practice one kick then go with it.

Sunz smirk: Is it a challenge you offering?

Sword surprise: Oh you think you can learn more than one “kick”

Sunz: Not only learn but I’ll make my own “kick”!

Sword: Are you trying to be my best student? Because no one has ever surpassed her. Don’t know if you can spot her in this place?

Sunz: I don’t know if I can but I think the one you’re talking about is that blacksmith girl ( Sunz points his finger outside the window )

Sword: Tell me why her?

Sunz: I don’t know she just feels like the most normal compared to everyone in this memories.

Sword: Well then you’re right. She died at a young age leaving behind her regret and bloodshed!

Sunz: Wow now I want to know more about her.

Sword: Well that is all I can tell you, my memories about her only contain the ending, no start no middle.

Suddenly someone put their hand on Sunz’s shoulder and said “It’s time to leave”. Sunz is confused of what going on then Sword said “Oh yeah you have to wake up now. It’s great to talk with you and good luck on the tournament.” After Sword end his sentence the person then kick Sunz’s chair making him fall onto the ground. Sunz woke up during the fall and he hit his head on the floor making a loud THUD, his dad was making breakfast and heard it, come to check on him, and said “you ok”. Sunz answers “I’m fine”, his dad then goes back to the kitchen. Sunz checks the time and it's five minutes before his alarm goes off. Sunz said “Just one more week then school is over”.
