Fantasy Assassin In A Modern World Chapter 8

After trying to look more into it, Loki came to a natural stopping point as he could no longer find any significant information on the net. Loki then noticed that he felt hungry, which surprised him a bit. Back in his old body, he could last a whole month without feeling any hunger, so getting hungry after a few hours of reading took him by surprise.
Loki looked at the time and saw that it was already past one in the afternoon. He went downstairs to make himself some food, but then he saw something on the dining table. There was a letter and beside it was food under a cover. Loki picked up the letter and read it.
"Dear big brother, I have prepared your lunch for you. I hope you like it, from your lovely little sister Alisa."
When Loki read the contents of the letter he felt a warm fuzzy feeling from deep within him. He gnashed his teeth as he tried to hold himself back from tearing up. From the way she looks to the way she acts, it was like Alisa was Shera herself. It was entirely possible that Shera was able to reincarnate into this world as a normal girl.
'Even though the possibility is slim, that is a nice notion... This time for sure, I will protect my new family.'
As some tears were falling down his face, Loki started eating the meal prepared by Alisa. Even though it wasn't spectacular and was normal fried chicken, Loki felt like what he was eating was the tastiest thing he has ever eaten.
...
Once he finished eating his meal Loki started calming down. The next thing Loki wanted to do was start training his new body. It was clear after yesterday's fight that his current body was lacking a lot. He just did a few punches and moved a little bit, and now his body was aching all over. It was a good thing he was used to this kind of pain, so it didn't really bother him. Also, once he started to circulate his mana even though it was just a minuscule amount, the pain would disappear faster.

Still, the current problem was in training his current body, he didn't know where to start. Back in his old world, the training he received was meant to be done with the aid of healing mages, but in this world, there weren't any healing mages, but there were doctors. Still, he would need a doctor present at all times, but that kind of healing would take weeks while a healing mage could instantly heal a deep wound. So in the end his old training method was impractical.
'I guess, using my training regime won't cut it in this world. I wonder how do people in this world train their bodies?'
Loki quickly tried to search for the answer to his question through the internet. He found that the use of the internet was extremely convenient. After searching for a while he found that there were a lot of workout videos and such that you could do in the convenience of your own home. Unfortunately, he didn't have the necessary equipment to do most of it, and he did not want to do simple exercises like push-ups and squats as he wanted to quickly gain a bit of muscle. Not to mention he was unsure as to at what capacity his current body could handle. It was highly probable that he would exceed the limit of what his current body is capable of without realizing thus breaking his new body in the process. He was numbed to such things as his past training always forced him to go beyond the limit. Yet that kind of mentality could only work in his old body, in his old world that had abundant amounts of mana. Loki sighed before continuing to search for what he needed through the internet.
'A gym a place where people gather to train their bodies with equipment and trainers. Now, this is what I need, and luckily there is a gym nearby.'

Loki was about to head out but then he nearly forgot that he needed money. He then went into his room and got his wallet. He remembered Alisa explaining the usage of the cards in his wallet, and he does have the memory of his own pin number. He then checked how much physical money he had. There were about two hundred dollars in the wallet. This was an equivalent amount to fifty gold coins back in his old world, which was an okay amount to have.
Loki then changed into a lighter attire one where it was alright to sweat in. After double-checking if he had everything ready Loki headed out.
Even though he had already seen it a couple of times now, this new world was amazing to look at. There were many buildings and people, the population of this one city alone was already twice more than the entire population of one kingdom back in his old world.
'I guess that's to be expected from a world without war.'
...
While Loki was heading towards the nearby gym, in Alisa's school it was lunchtime. Alisa was walking in the hallway with her friends when a handsome young man approached them with a smile on his face.
"Hey Alisa, I heard your brother finally woke up. Here is a gift for him getting discharged from the hospital. I hope he gets better soon." The young man continued smiling as he presented a get-well basket filled with numerous things and a letter on top. Alisa frowned as she saw the gift and spoke in an ice-cold tone.
"Kira, you've got some nerve to say something like that after what you've done."
"Huh, what do you mean, what did I do? I'm just worried about your big brother. When he's not here the library feels empty, he is a pretty good librarian. I like him a lot since he's the silent type, perfect for a librarian."
Alisa gnashed her teeth in frustration as she heard Kira's comment. Alisa's friends didn't speak out as they didn't want to get involved with Kira. They wanted to side with their friend Alisa, but they were powerless in the face of Kira one of the most influential and powerful students in the school. If you get on his bad side, then your school life was over. The only person in the entire school who could talk rudely to him was Alisa, seeing as Kira liked her.
"I know you were behind what happened to my big brother."
"Alisa, you better think before you spout such accusations. I've been treating you so kindly, and you're the only girl in this school I even bother to talk to. Now you're accusing me of harming your brother?! Do you have any proof?"
"I know it was you, and I know you had someone delete the footage on the security cameras."
"Basically you have no proof. Since I'm such a kind man I'll forgive you for slandering me. Oh, here's a thought how about you agree to be my girlfriend and I'll help you find the true perpetrator that pushed your big brother into that accident."
"I will never agree to be your girlfriend." After saying her piece Alisa left with her friends fuming with anger. Seeing her fading silhouette Kira smiled a very sadistic smile.
'Resist all you want, my dear little Alisa, that just makes things more interesting for me. But know this, no matter how hard you resist, in the end, I will always win.'
