《MY Life In The Multiverse》Chapter 77: Angry subordinates
Advertisement
After following the butler and the still embarrassed maid to a big table filled with delicious-looking food, Yuki kept absentmindedly reading the system's explanation regarding the changes that occurred to his body during his sleep…
[Host, just like how the demons and the hero you know can empower their bodies through magic, the same thing happened to you after gaining the new 'skills' from this world as they are different in nature from the system's normal skills and abilities. This is what happens when a person has too many strong abilities so magic strengthens their body to allow them to host these abilities and be able to use them. However, more often than not, otherworlders end up dying because they can't handle the huge surge of magic and instantly explode... But your body of diamond allowed you to deal with this without using external factors]
'So do you mean that if I leave this world that doesn't have magic, I will lose my current body and the power to use some of my abilities?' asked Yuki and the system confirmed his guess
[Yes, but you can always revert back to this state if you have enough mana… different from the temporary increase in your body, your magic and mana have been strengthened permanently, but the consumption will be very quick if your abilities remain active which is why the demons you know doesn't abuse their true powers and keep their terrifying abilities in a dormant state…]
'I see, they probably automatically regenerate their mana when in Ente Isla so they were never worried about reverting to their current forms… No, they probably never understood they had such weak bodies since they were always blessed and were strengthened by magic so they didn't have to do physical training…' thought Yuki as he sat on the table and began enjoying his breakfast happily…
But then he noticed that the butler and maid were still staring at him with weird looks on their faces so he asked while slightly covering the food from them "Are you guys hungry?"
The butler ignored his behavior and gave him a slight bow before he said "Please don't mind our presence sir, we are just following lord Leon's orders and are here just in case you need anything"
Yuki narrowed at him as he thought 'As long as you don't want my food it's okay... Plus it's more likely you are here to keep an eye on me in case I try to cause trouble with my weird absorption ability'
But on the outside he simply nodded with a smile and said "I see, please take care of me then… Oh by the way, what are your names?"
The butler elegantly introduced himself "My name is Kayle" and the maid soon followed after, although with a red face "My name is Sacha"
Yuki nodded at them both with a harmless smile and said "Nice to meet you both, sorry for the awkward encounter"
Sacha blushed even further when hearing this and shook her head quickly before she said "You don't have to apologize, it was my mistake entering your room without knocking…"

Sacha had blond haie and blue eyes and she was really cute when she was blushing but she was young and was still a little bit inexperienced as a maid, while Kayle had white hair and seemed like a proper butler in both attitude and looks…
"How long will it take for my new clothes to arrive?" asked Yuki while shoving his face with the delicious food and Kayle immediately replied "it will arrive by the time you finish eating sir"
"Oh, that's quite fast…" Muttered Yuki while shooting him a thumbs up…
After Yuki finished eating all the food on the table, Kayle and Sacha followed him back to his assigned room and there was already a set of aristocratic-looking clothes ready on his bed…
After wearing them, Yuki couldn't help but make a few poses in front of the mirror with a delighted look on his face "This is amazing, they are similar to the clothes Diablo wears…" muttered Yuki but Kayle only assumed that it was probably someone from Yuki's world so he didn't ask…
After satisfying his narcissism and ego, a servant suddenly walked in and bowed to Yuki before he said "Sir Yuki, the black knight Claude has invited you to the training ground, please follow me…"
Yuki's eyes narrowed slightly before they returned back to normal as he thought 'Well, I guess there's no free meal in the world that's for sure…' before he nodded at the servant and followed after him to the training ground behind the castle…
It was enormous to say the least, Yuki could see many troops wearing different colors each doing their own drills… Some were practicing magic, other swordsmanship, and others with their spears…
Yuki's mouth opened by such a display of power as each troop had thousands of soldiers…
"These are the forces of lord Leon. The Red Knight Order has Magic Knights skillful in offensive magic. The Blue Knight Order has Magic Knights skillful in support magic belongs, The Yellow Knight Order has Magic Knights skillful in defensive magic, and the White Knight Order has Magic knights skillful in recovery magic"
Yuki nodded at the servant's explanation in amazement 'Leon is truly good at being a ruler…' Thought Yuki before they arrived to a slightly isolated training ground where a lone knight in dark armor was waiting for them…
This was Claude, Leon's right hand and his strongest subordinate, and right now he had a startled look on his face that he failed to hide as he stared at Yuki who had a huge change to his appearance…
'This kid… the aura around him is different' thought Claude but Yuki quickly interrupted him with a yawn and said "So you must be Claude, what did you invite me here for?"
'This brat is annoying' thought Claude as he stood in front of Yuki and said "I want you to join our military, this is the least you can do to repay lord Leon's generosity"
Yuki stared at him like an idiot 'He's probably acting on his own, Leon isn't such a petty person to ask someone to pay him back for something he gave' thought Yuki before he said "Pay him back? For what? Summoning me from the comforts of my home? And is this even Leon's decision or yours?"

Claude's eyes narrowed slightly 'this kid is smart' before he said "It was my decision, but I thought you were an honorable man and would know how to repay favors, it seems I was wrong…"
'Oh trying to taunt me through honor? Hahahahah how naïve' thought Yuki who couldn't help but smirk "too bad, it seems like you lack judgment, how could Leon keep someone like you as his right-hand man? Does he value muscles over brains? I'm disappointed"
Claude's face turned dark when he heard this as he said "Kid, Fight me if you dare, and the winner shall accept anything the winner ask from them"
"Why woul-" Yuki was about to deny this stupid request since it didn't benefit him at all but he suddenly remembered that he had to spread his notoriety in this world anyways so he quickly changed his mind and said "Sure, but no magic is allowed during the fight, do you agree?" asked Yuki with a smirk and Claude replied with a smirk of his own 'Got you kid' as he said "Sure"
"Oh and one more thing, don't you think it would be better to have an audience to watch our fight? Kayle, please invite the four knights orders and Leon to watch this show" sad Yuki and Claude tried to reject "No, there's no need for an audience"
'This bastard is trying to make people think I'm bullying a newcomer' he thought but Yuki simply taunted him by saying "Why? Are you scared? If that's the case then I don't mind calling out the fight, no need to push yourself"
Huge veins appeared on Claude's face but suddenly a knight in silver armor approached them, he was the chief of the knights Alrose and he had an angry look on his face as he said "Are you trying to insult my lord and his forces by calling us cowards?"
'Oh, another idiot has arrived, and this one seems to be worse than the first one' thought Yuki before he said "Go ahead and bring the audience then, I'm ready to fight at any time"
At this point, Kayle suddenly interfered "Sir knight, Yuki-sama is a guest of our lord, you shouldn't treat him like this"
But Alrose was having none of it as he glared at Kayle and said "You dare side with an outsider!" Before he suddenly slashed at Kayle with his sword sending an eerie silver light that was ready to cut him in half but suddenly, Leon appeared out of nowhere and dispersed the attack with a show of light before he glared at Alrose and said
"What's going on Alrose!" Sacha quickly rushed to the slightly pale Kayle and glared at Alrose with her light blue eyes...
but before Alrose could respond, Yuki immediately said "Leon buddy, your people are bullying me and even tried to kill such an honorable man like Kayle for standing up for me, is this the hospitality that the people of Eldorado grant to their guests?"
Leon had an ugly look on his face as he glared at Alrose who quickly tried to explain himself "My lord I…" but Leon simply teleported him away and was planning to punish him later before he turned to his other subordinate who was causing trouble, Claude, who quickly began explaining the situation to Leon with an embarrassed look on his face. But he was surprised when Leon suddenly said
"Go ahead then, fight, but if you lose, be sure that a great punishment would await you"
Then he turned to Yuki and said "As for you Yuki, As an apology, no matter If you win or lose, I will open my warehouses for you one more time"
Yuki's face froze slightly 'What's he planning? Is he trying to understand my ability? Or is just generous because of his subordinates' bad actions? I can't read this guy at all… He reminds me of Mashiro…' thought Yuki before he said "Sure Mash-Leon-chan"
Leon's face froze slightly hearing Yuki add the chan to his name while the rest of the people's faces froze in fear, but nothing happened so they let out a sigh of relief…
"Now then, just as we agreed, no magic" said Yuki with a smile and Claude nodded at him… At this point some knights from the other orders had already taken notice of this place after Leon's appearance and they wanted to see why did their lord arrive to the training ground…
"START" said Leon and Claude immediately disappeared and appeared in front of Yuki sending a terrifying punch to his face…
'Hmm, he's a little bit slow… well I guess it's normal to be like this without magic' thought Yuki as he easily dodged the punch and kneed Claude in the stomach at the same time which sent him flying through the air with a faster speed than he attacked with…
*CLANG* Everyone heard the sound of metal hitting metal from their clash despite Yuki clearly not wearing any armor…
"Ugh…" muttered Claude through his gritted teeth and was thankful that he was wearing his armor otherwise, he would have suffered heavily from this attack 'This kid is terrifying' he thought…
Leon's eyes as well widened slightly as he watched that no matter how Claude attacked, Yuki always easily countered him, and at some point, he realized 'Yuki's not only overpowering him in terms of physical attributes… He's far far better than him in terms of fighting skills as well… what kind of monster did I summon?'
But suddenly, Yuki smiled wickedly before he sent Claude flying through the air with a high kick that hit him right on the jaw…
"Impossible… Claude the dark knight lost so easily?"
"Who's this guy…" Was the thought on everyone's minds…

Journey West 5000

Unstable and weakened, will he be more hindrance than help? Can he become the warrior he once was?A Monk and a Monkey journey across a world...... where the remnants of technology are seen as magic, while pockets of humanity strive to drag themselves out of ignorance.... where the descendants of animal-human hybrids, once created as instruments of war, now seek to dominate the world as demons.... where beings who call themselves Immortals and Gods preoccupy themselves with selfish pastimes, ignoring everything else. Among other things, a story about growth, grit, and being better than the person you were yesterday. Here's my rambling on why I'm writing Journey West 5000. Journey West 5000 is my crazy ambitious writing project to adapt a classic epic called "Journey to the West" for a global, modern audience. It's a sci-fi story disguised as fantasy, and has some road trip + monster of the week elements (as does the original Journey to the West). No system, definitely no harem, gradual power progression. Hmm, what else can I put here so potential readers know what to expect? My writing style for now is mostly "show don't tell", because I believe that readers don't need to have everything pointed out to them, and that they should be allowed to make up their own minds about characters based on the actions of those characters. I'm also trying to be less long-winded (a weakness pointed out by some friends) in order to write according to something Neil Gaiman said, which is to write as though I'm the one who has to pay for every word, not the reader. This will bring down my chapter word counts, and might drive away potential readers, but I believe there's value in learning to compress and be concise. All chapters posted here will have been edited. Constructive criticism, comments, and feedback would be very much welcome and appreciated. Please, please help point out any typos or grammatical mistakes, I'm striving to minimize those as much as possible. Above all, I hope you enjoy my story.
