《Astral Land》Chapter 1 Out of Body
Advertisement
The moon shone brightly.
The voices of crickets and owls seemed to sing melodiously together.
The sky was filled with stars, blinking above the small house in the middle of the village.
In this small and simple house, a young man was sitting reading a book on a wooden chair.
The young man's name is "Reno Prayuda," his family and friends used to call the young man by calling him "Reno or Ren."
The 16 years old boy is currently registered in a public high school around a small village called "Bintang village."
Reno comes from a farmer's family, both of his parents work in the fields every day.
Reno's family piece of land that is located in the backyard of the house comes from inheritance handed down from generation to generation by their family's ancestors.
"Reno, you should go to sleep, it's already late, tomorrow you have to get up early," Said a middle-aged man who has hair filled with gray hair. This middle-aged man is his dad.
Reno then turned his head to the middle-aged man and nodded his head.
The young man is the only child of this family with the surname "Prayuda."
This little family has been living for generations as a farmer.
Reno's father's name is "Khalif Prayuda," while his mother's name is "Dewi Permata."
"Help your mother tomorrow, as usual, assist her in planting the seeds to the soil" Khalif stood smiling before Reno.
"Noted father," Reno nodded.
"Oh ya, I forgot that I do not need to go to school tomorrow because it is a holiday, right father?" Reno replied politely to his dad.
Every day of school holidays, Reno is accustomed to helping Mothers and Fathers in the fields, but other than holidays, the young man does not need to help them because Reno has to go to school in the morning.

"I know that you are currently studying for your mid-term test, but don't be too distorted with the study," His mother said.
"If your grades aren't bad, you are already satisfied both father and mother," his mother continued while showing a worried face.
"Okay, mother," Reno replied with a smile, stood up and left from the ordinary wooden chair and table, then walked towards the bed to his room.
The Prayuda family's house is quite small, consisting of a living room, two bedrooms, a small kitchen, and one bathroom.
Father and Mother use one main room as their bedroom while one the other small room is used by Reno to sleep.
Reno's room sometimes likes to be occupied as guest rooms when there are guests who stop by and must stay at home.
When this happens, Reno must temporarily evacuate from his room, then sleep in the living room.
The Prayuda family is a small family that lives with an income below the average of ordinary people.
This family house quite small and simple but also there are not many classy furniture and decorations in it.
Although this family home is quite small, a large plot of the family farm about 1000 m2 is right next to the Prayuda family's house.
# Reno bedroom
"Bleep" sounds like something loose.
Reno fell asleep, then suddenly flew to his rooftop and saw his physical sleeping body in front of his sight.
The out of body experience phenomenon incurred again for the third time.
The first incident slightly surprised Reno, and at the same time, he woke up from his sleep.
The shock incurred naturally interspersed with a little fear and anxiety because the phenomenon of the first out of body experience event was complicated to explain because he suddenly flew above the ceiling of his room's roof and saw his physical body was lying sleeping on the bed.

The first incident made Reno confused with the phenomenon that happened to him.
The second incident did not make Reno surprised.
In the second out of body experience, Reno tried to understand this unusual phenomenon that was happening to him.
The second incident made Reno draw a temporary hypothesis about his subtle figure was currenly leaving his physical body as in the supernatural stories he used to hear and read.
Reno is a dull and slightly anti-social child. Unlike other children of the same age as the young man.
When other boys of the same age as Reno prefers to play motorbikes and "hang out," the young man prefers to spend his time reading fantasy, martial arts, and mystery books.
Reading these books makes Reno friends like to mock him with the term "nerdy."
Even though Reno is not an ugly boy, he tends to be handsome, but his friends in class keep their distance from him because his habits are reading fantasy books every day.
Reno began able to get his subtle body out from the physical body since he read a holy book entitled "Mraga Sukma"
He got the book from a mysterious bookstore in the city when the young man visits that city a few months ago with his father to sell the results of their rice fields.
Reno's love for a fantasy world and martial arts is deeply ingrained.
He was willing to save money so that he could buy the books that he enjoyed a lot.
Reno began collecting these books since the fifth grade of elementary school until now; there have been many fantasies, martial arts, and mystery books, including novels that he has bought.
Reno did not expect that one of the books he had just bought in the city gave a quick tutorial on getting his subtle body out of the physical body.
He diligently follows the tutorial given inside the book before going to bed.
Gradually and diligently, experiment after experiment, until in the end, Reno managed to get his subtle body out from his physical body several times.
When he could get his subtle body out from his physical body at the same time, he tried to wander around using his subtle body and often murmured to himself, "then doesn't this mean I can explore other dimensions?"
Is this something that can benefit Reno, or will it bring disaster?
Apart from that, Reno tried to think positively and began to learn and understand his new world.
