The World Seems Realistic But Why Do I Have A Leveling System? Chapter 31
Advertisement
When Sheila opened her eyes, she could see that her surrounding was one hell of a messy room. It was not her room, and neither did she know whose it was. After surveying her surroundings, She tries to take a step forward but couldn't. She looks down and realizes that there's nothing down there and it was not just her legs; she is basically invisible.
She was panicking on what's going on when suddenly a figure emerged from a mountain of books on the ground. It was a beautiful woman with red hair and silver eyes. The scene would have been better if not for the messy hair like a person who had just woken up from their sleep. Sheila could only silently stare at the beautiful stranger in front of her.
The woman didn't seem to be able to see her as she walks passed her when getting out of the room. Sheila didn't need to do anything before some unknown force pulled her to follow the strange woman. Sheila was surprised seeing the fantastical scenery outside from the windows when she left the room. Sheila didn't know if she was not in her right mind at that moment, but she was sure that she saw a huge dragon flying in the distant sky.
She was unable to discern whether it was real or not as she was unable to stop herself from being pulled by the mysterious force. My romance—! She could only let out a resigned sigh as she follows the woman like a haunting ghost. It appears that she was in some kind of tower when she accidentally went through the wall before being pulled back when the woman was going upstairs.
The woman was quiet when she walks so Sheila couldn't get any information from her. In the first place, could she understand her language if she ever spoke? Sheila has this weird feeling that this is not her world but an entirely different one. The dragon is one thing, but she also saw a book floating silently when the woman arrived in what appears to be a library. After going through from one book to another, the woman finally exits the library with tons of books floating by her side. It's freaking psychokinesis magic!

Her eyes sparkled and filled with respect when she looks at the woman. This woman is definitely a mage and an outstanding one at that. The world also seemed to be in a medieval era with magic since the light inside the tower was from lanterns, but it was not fueled with oil when she tried to put her head inside it. What she saw inside was a small stone filled with mana.
A mana stone is a stone that was stored with mana that comes from a living being. Yes, this mana stone is probably from some monster out there or possibly human of this world. She knew of it because she saw one in the system's shop. And yes, it is also pricey as hell, darn it. Maybe the goblin that she killed in the alleyway from before also has mana stone inside its body, but oh well.
" I have acquired sufficient knowledge for this moment. I could only do it once and no more. If it failed, I would just blame it on my fate. "
The woman muttered to herself. Weirdly enough, Sheila could understand every word that she spoke. The woman then went on by making all sorts of stuff like an evil ritual by drawing a magic-like circle on the spacious ground. But from the look of her eyes which are filled with determination, it didn't seem like she was doing an evil ceremony to summon a devil. Once she was done with the circle on the ground, she brings out all sorts of items from out of nowhere or probably inside spatial storage like one we see in the fantasy world.
A huge bone, all sort of enchanted weapons, and all type of stuff was sort by putting it the small ring beside the huge circle. After she was done putting her things down, she went and sat at the center of the huge magic circle and started chanting. Sheila didn't know if the translation from before didn't work or it's just normal not to understand the chant word, but either way, she was too mesmerized by the scene in front of her.

The moment the woman started chanting, the magic circle slowly shine, and when she was almost done with the chant, suddenly a figure barged into the room. The woman eyes were wide open as she appears to be in shocked when a figure suddenly barged in her room in the middle of her experiment. But she couldn't do anything and continue on her chant to finish it fast as possible.
She was almost at the last word of her chant when the figure attacks her by throwing a huge fireball at her. She was about to stop the chant and use magic to defend against the attack when suddenly the space in her surrounding cracked. The crack in the space swallowed the fireball that was flying to her. But it was not just the fireball; she was also included.
The woman and the fireball disappeared within the cracked space, the figure walks toward the scene and erases part of the magic circle which appears to have influenced to the cracking space as it slowly diminishes before disappearing completely. That was the last scene Sheila see before her world was filled with darkness, and when she opened her eyes once again, she was back in her room.
"What... just happened?"
Sheila was blankly staring in the air for a few minutes before her mind quickly comes together, and she pulled out the phone from her pocket. She opened the leveling system app and immediately asked.
"What was that just now?!"
『 That was the first threshold of the System Origin. 』
『 The host is unable to view more due to unknown requirement has not been met. 』
That was the system Origin? Does it mean it came from Another World? Or perhaps, the system is from that red-haired woman? But who was the figure who suddenly barged in the room and immediately sent out a big fireball at the woman? The information is too little for her to come to a conclusion. Just thinking about all sort of stuff brings her a headache, she decides to stop thinking about it since she only has too little information and instead enters the Trial Tower to level up.

"Did you say that someone's been following my daughter, but you were stopped from taking action by their subordinates and when you were done with them and went to the place, what you found was the two culprits, but they are unconscious in their underwear, is that right?"
"Yes, Madam."
"Then did you find out who helped her?"
"No, Madam. They left no trace behind."
"...did I hired you all for your incompetent?"
"...No, Madam. We will be sure to do it thoroughly next time."
"So you are saying that you have not been doing it thoroughly this whole time? Did you know what would happen to you guys if even a bug dare to hurt my daughter?"
"We will make sure no such incident happen again, Madam."
"Thankfully, she got out safe and sound by the helped of an unknown stranger. If not, you would not be talking with me right now."
After saying her words, she immediately hangs up and put the phone down on the table. She let out a sigh while massaging her temple, people after people, more of them keep on coming after her daughter. Did they think she would let them slide even if it failed? No. It was never in her dictionary to let her enemy go. Just because she has been keeping quiet for the past few weeks already makes them unable to sit tight, it seems that she needs to make her move.
"Mom, is the food in the fridge still edible?"
She was brought back to reality when her daughter called her. She smiles before answering to her daughter.
"Of course, Sheila."
