Chapter 2 - Ch.2 Loading

"Huh? Where am I?"

The red-haired man opened his eyes to find himself in a luxurious room instead of the street he was standing in a few moments ago.

'Damn, this bed is so soft.'

As he tried to move around to survey his surroundings, he found himself lying on a bed which was too big for a single person and looked pretty expensive.

'Not just the bed, it's almost everything in the room.'

Looking around more, he found various items that seemed premium and expensive, but what surprised him even more was something else.

"There's no modern technology in this room but how?"

He couldn't help but mumble in surprise as even though he couldn't find any light bulb, he could feel the whole room being illuminated somehow not to mention the temperature instead of the room. 

Not to mention, the furniture inside the room had an antique vibe, which was pretty rare for where he lived.

'Could it be due to the weather around the area? And the owner of the house's taste is probably unique.'

That was the only logical conclusion he could come to when he once again heard that mechanical voice in his head.

[Finally, you are awake, I was waiting for you for ages.]

"Huh? Have I finally gone insane enough to hear weird voices in my head? Man, that's unlucky."

"Or could just be a dream, yup it's that."

Feeling overwhelmed by the whole new surroundings, the mechanical voice he just heard and a weird feeling of his sense of vision getting smaller, he decided to rest in bed to clear up his mind.

'But man, it's so soft.'

[Oi, don't fall asleep on me. We still have many things to discuss and no, it's not a dream.]

"Oh really? So can you explain everything for now?"

Instead of trying to figure out what exactly was going on, he decided to ask the mechanical voice instead as it seemed to know much more than himself.

[So basically you have been transmigrated into another world due to the conditions being fulfilled.]

"So that explains everything and let me guess, it's a magical world?"

[Yup you are right, ain't it pretty cool?]

Looking around the room, he could finally find the reasons for the weird phenomenon he noticed and why the room was filled with antique furniture.

"Yup pretty cool, and all this stuff in the room looks pretty expensive too."

[Oh pretty perceptive, but yup all these stuff are expensive because you have been transmitted into the body of a child of a noble family.]

"Damn, so that's why." 

Realising what happened, he looked down to see his hands which were much smaller than usual and without any calluses.

[Hey no need to feel sad, as I am sure you will have fun in this new life of yours.]

"Huh? Who is sad?"

He was surprised to hear what that mechanical voice had said as all he could feel right now was happiness with no trace of sadness on his face.

"I am now in a new and young body while being rich? Like I couldn't ask for anything more."

A huge smile formed on his face as he said that, while lightly pinching his cheek as he still couldn't believe it had happened.

"And I would get some overpowered stuff like all those anime too right?"

[Oh that's good to hear that you have adapted pretty quickly to your new life and for the overpowered stuff, well I guess we will know soon.]

"Hmm? What do you mean by that?"

He asked in a surprised voice as he felt that even the mechanical voice was clueless about the stuff he's gonna get, which is usually different from all the anime he had seen.

[Your system is still loading so we will know what you exactly got once it's finished and for now, you can only use analysis skills.]

"But how are you talking if the system is not finished?"

[Good question, but I don't know.]

"What?"

He couldn't help but voice out his surprise loudly after hearing what it said and almost thought he heard it wrong.

[As I said, even I don't know as I have been sent here with specific instructions and I am just following that while anything that is outside of that, is something I don't have any knowledge about.]

"You are one system for sure."

He couldn't help but rub his forehead in a bit of frustration as he kept getting answers which were unexpected.

'Well worrying about it will not help me much, let's look around for now.'

After deciding that, he got out of bed to search for a mirror to see his new appearance.

"Can you tell me how much loading is done?"

He decided to ask about one of the leads he had right now when suddenly a blue screen appeared in the corner of his vision.

[Loading:- 5%]

'Kind of slow but will take anything right now.'

He couldn't help but shake his head in frustration when he heard the mechanical voice again.

[Also you can just tell me what you want without voicing it in your mind and I will hear it but remember to specify it's toward me.]

"Oh, that's a pretty good feature and the specific thing is for privacy?"

[Yup that's right.]

"Damn, that's a pretty good feature and one of the few good things about you."

[I will focus on the first part only and thanks for the compliment.]

He couldn't help but laugh at its cheekiness but he kind of liked it as it added more personality to it.

'Oh found it.'

After searching for a while, he finally found an arm-length mirror inside the drawer next to his bed and looking inside it, he could see a face much younger than he used to have a few moments ago.

"Wait, that's just me but younger?"
