S-Rank In Another World Chapter 7
Advertisement
I woke up with my mind still a little cloudy. I didn't know where I am and kept looking around until my vision returned to normal. It seems I was lying in bed and Marya was by my side with a very worried expression. I did not know what to do or say, I think I already know what happened.
"Status." (Endl)
I called it status in a low voice and realized that my mana was at 1. Yes, I suffered a total loss of mana with magic training and ended up passing out. Marya was sitting on the edge of the bed with a chair, when she realized that I woke up, she cracked a smile on her face and started talking to me.
"Thank god Endl, I didn't know what to do was so worried." (Marya)
Marya had tears in the corners of her eyes as she looked at me while saying those words. Yes, I realized how worried she was about me. Well, she took care of me for 3 years, of course she would be worried.
"Lie down okay? I'm afraid you'll pass out again, I've already called your mommy." (Marya)
While I was lying down, I opened my status and took a look at how to use the Divine Eyes ability. Good, basically just focus on the target and say 'Look'. Well, I did that, but I said the phrase softly enough so Marya wouldn't notice, after which I saw Marya's Status.
Name: Marya
Level: 5
Race: Human
Age: 19
Strength: 22
Agility: 18
Intelligence: 28
Mana: 14/14
Skills
Fire Magic - Level 1
Earth Magic - Level 1
'Marya is very weak. She has some spells, but the level is very low.'
I looked at her status for a moment, but I realized that surely this wasn't the status of someone who battles. She certainly learned magic for home-use, and she didn't train her strength or agility much. She was certainly a housewife through and through.

While looking at Marya's Status, my mother hurried into the room.
"Endl are you ok?" (Emma)
My mother came into the room and rushed to the bed, before hugging me. I could feel her heart racing. I think she ran from work and ran to me. In my mind, I was apologizing for making her worry.
"My God, what happened to you? I have to ask a doctor to examine you, then I'll talk to your father to call a doctor from the capital, even if it's a cheaper doctor." (Emma)
My mother was certainly worried.
While once more apologizing in my mind, I took the chance and looked at my mom's Status.
Name: Emma
Level: 28
Race: Human
Age: 29
Strength: 89
Agility: 74
Intelligence: 81
Mana: 110/110
Skills
Fire Magic - Level 3
Wind Magic - Level 2
Water Magic - Level 2
Ohhhh, sure enough, mom is strong. Does she work as a guard, or something more adventurous? Until today I could not figure out what her job was, but today will be the day.
"Mom, what do you work with?" (Endl)
Mom stared at me for a moment because of my sudden question.
"Mom works as a guard in the village, as there are not many strong people in this area. Mom works as a guard and helps the villagers. And as for your father, he has worked as an adventurer before. He is very strong you know? Fufufufu." (Emma)
Mom told me some useful information without me asking. So dad was an adventurer? Was he stronger than mom? He was good indeed. But what is dad doing today if he is not an adventurer anymore?
"Is dad not an adventurer anymore?" (Endl)
"Your father had an adventurous soul before Lily was born, but now he takes care of the village. Well, usually I take care of the village instead of him, so I can be considered the village chief rather than him. Your dad works as a castle guard in the capital, so he doesn't come here much, he spends most of his time at work." (Emma)

Sure enough, dad almost never came here to see me. Usually, I stayed with Marya during the day. Sometimes Lily comes to see me, but the two of us rarely play with each other for long. And during the night mom comes to see me and stays with me.
But my dad only shows up here twice a month or so. Is he too busy?
"Good Endl, you better lie down, get some more rest, then I'll talk to your father to bring a doctor from the capital to examine you" (Emma)
Well, I was still tired considering my mana still hasn't recovered yet sitting at a pitiful 2. So as I was still tired, I decided to take my mother's advice and went to sleep.

Re: Dragonize
After an unexpected turn of events, Drew must now survive in a world full of challenges with life-or-death stakes. Gone are the days when the biggest problems to face were awkward small-talk at physics department luncheons or mountains of lab work; this former physicist is now adrift in an unfamiliar land without any equipment. Now, Drew's only tool (if it can be called that) is a System, which provides constant reminders of all of the things that are still out of reach for a low-level being who's just arrived in a new world. Luckily, Drew has one powerful asset when taking on the challenges of this new world: surviving violent conflict is a lot easier when you have the power of a dragon at your disposal. Still, Drew has always considered violence a last resort. Why turn to fists (or claws) when a bit of quiet consideration might expose a better path forward? Maybe a life of quiet contemplation is still within reach for this former academic researcher. ...Or maybe not. It probably won't be a life of bloodless pacifism. Additional information for those who wish to calibrate their expectations (I'm adding this based on a few comments I received from readers who feel that the story is not what they expected from a dragon-themed story): Re: Dragonize is not a power fantasy -- or at least, it's not intended to be one. Re: Dragonize is a progression fantasy starting with a protagonist who must start at the bottom (or close to it), and work gradually upwards, making incremental progress with plenty of setbacks along the way. The protagonist, as someone coming from the world of academia, tends to be cautious, methodical, and contemplative. As such, expect this story to contain more than a few digressions as the main character takes the time to pontificate on a variety of topics ranging from Newtonian physics and horology to the nature of existence and the ethical dilemmas associated with being an obligate carnivore.
