chapter 1
Yoshida Jun
Souta! Me and Mei are daiting!
Yoshida Jun
Yesterday I asked her out and she sayed yes!
Yoshida Jun
Why do you seem sad?
Yoshida Jun
Were you in love with me?
Araya Souta
No, you’re annoying
Araya Souta
I’m happy for you
Yoshida Jun
Right, and you’re still single
Yoshida Jun
Do you wanna know what happened in Azure Dragon novel!
Yoshida Jun
I just got the last book!
Araya Souta
I don’t wanna know
Araya Souta
Because I don’t care
Suddenly someone hugs Jun from behind
Yoshida Jun
*kisses Mei on the lips*
Yoshida Jun
What are you doing here?
Kato Mei
I came to get you, I’ll bring you home
Yoshida Jun
That’s so sweet, thank you MeiMei
Kato Mei
You must be Souta, I have heard a lot about you
Araya Souta
Me too, she won’t shut up about you
Yoshida Jun
Souta shut it!
Kato Mei
*starts laughing*
Kato Mei
Well it’s nice meeting you, do you need ride home also?
Araya Souta
No, my brother is coming
Yoshida Jun
Bye Souta, see you tomorrow
Jun and Mei left the classroom
Araya Souta
*starts crying*
Someone opened the door but Souta didn’t hear it
Kato Naomi
Souta are you alright?
Araya Souta
N-Naomi, what are you doing here
Kato Naomi
I came to look for you, I know that you loved Jun.
Kato Naomi
I see how you look at her, eyes full of love
Kato Naomi
You’ll fall in love with someone else, you don’t need her
Kato Naomi
We’re finished this school soon, maybe you should try to get another girl in our class
Kato Naomi
With your looks anyone would say yes
Araya Souta
No, I don’t want to…
Kato Naomi
*holds Souta tighter*
Kato Naomi
Souta, I love you!
Araya Souta
Naomi, let me go!
Kato Naomi
I want to be your girlfriend, I am better than Jun
Naomi took something out of her pocket. And Souta felt something poke into his neck.
Araya Souta
What was that!
Kato Naomi
*let’s Souta go*
Kato Naomi
Souta I have loved you since we first met
Souta suddenly started feeling dizzy and he fell down
Kato Naomi
Seems like it is starting to kick in
Kato Naomi
*starts undressing*
Suddenly Souta’s phone started buzzing
Kato Naomi
Who the f@ck is that…
Kato Naomi
*picks up the phone*
Kato Naomi
It’s your brother…
Kato Naomi
*takes off her tie and puts it around Souta’s mouth *
Kato Naomi
To keep you quiet…
Kato Naomi
*answers the phone*
Kato Naomi
📱 Hello! It’s Naomi.
Araya Yasu
📱 Where is Souta, I came to pick him up?
Kato Naomi
📱 Oh, he must have forgotten to tell you. He is walking me home, we left 10 minutes ago.
Kato Naomi
📱 He went to the toilet and I’m waiting for him right now.
Araya Yasu
📱 Okey, tell him to call me back.
Kato Naomi
📱 Sure, have a nice day Yasu
Kato Naomi
*ends the call*
Kato Naomi
*takes off the tie around Souta’s mouth *
Kato Naomi
Why? Because you never would have loved me.
Kato Naomi
So I will take the only chance I have, before we end this school, because I have a feeling that I will never see you again
Kato Naomi
So I’ll do it now, I have been dreaming about it for years
Araya Souta
*turns his head away*
Kato Naomi
*pouts* why avoid it, it will make you feel so good
Suddenly the classroom door was kicked open
Kato Naomi
*looks towards the door with shocked face*
Araya Yasu
What the Fu£c are you doing to my brother!
Araya Yasu
*runs towards Naomi and rips her off Souta*
Araya Yasu
Are you okey Souta?!
Araya Souta
*starts crying harder*
Araya Yasu
It’s okey, I’m here now
Araya Yasu
*let’s go of Souta*
Araya Yasu
*walks towards Naomi *
Kato Naomi
*starts crawling away from Yasu*
Araya Yasu
*punches Naomi in the face*
Araya Yasu
I’m going to kill you!
Araya Yasu
*punches her in the face again*
Araya Souta
Call the police, let them deal with it…
Yasu called the police and they arrived 4 minutes later
Naomi was put into jail for sexual assault for 15 years
Araya Yasu
Souta, wake up!
Araya Yasu
It’s your first day in college
Araya Souta
I don’t want to go!
Araya Yasu
You have been staying home for 2 years, it is enough
Araya Yasu
You can’t be stuck in that moment forever
Araya Souta
What if that happens again…
Araya Yasu
No it won’t, me and Jun won’t let it happen
Araya Yasu
She is waiting for you, don’t keep her waiting
Souta got he bag ready and went downstairs
Yoshida Jun
Took you long enough…
Yoshida Jun
I have been waiting here for 20 minutes!
Yoshida Jun
It’s okey, let’s get going
Araya Souta
So how have you and Mei been doing?
Yoshida Jun
Fine, she is so sweet to me!
Yoshida Jun
When I am finishing college, me and Mei are getting married
Araya Souta
I’m happy for you
Yoshida Jun
Maybe you should try dating too, to forget what she did to you
Araya Souta
Let’s get going
Yoshida Jun
Wanna know what I heard!
Yoshida Jun
Azure Dragon is getting a live action series
Yoshida Jun
I have been waiting for years!
Yoshida Jun
And it’s finally happening!
Yoshida Jun
I wonder who’ll play Himari
Yoshida Jun
The female lead!
Yoshida Jun
I have told you!
Araya Souta
I wasn’t probably listening.
They started going across the roud when a car was coming
Yoshida Jun
*pushes Souta away*
The car hit Jun and Jun flew across the street
Araya Souta
*runs towards Jun*
Driver
*get’s out the car*
Driver
I didn’t see you two!
Araya Souta
Call the ambulance!
The driver called the ambulance but Jun was dead before they got there
2 weeks later was Jun’s funeral
Kato Mei
If she didn’t come to get you, she would still be alive!
Kato Mei
Why didn’t you get hit by that car!
Araya Yasu
Souta, let’s leave
Kato Mei
Yes, get the f@ck out of here!
Araya Yasu
It’s not your fault, she doesn’t mean it
Araya Yasu
It was not your fault and it is what you need to know.
Araya Yasu
I’m going out for awhile
Araya Yasu
If you need anything, call me
Yasu left and Souta walked towards the window and waited till he saw that Yasu’s car was gone
He walked into the bathroom and took out some pills what Yasu had left over.
He filled a glass with water and gulped down the whole bottle of pills
He threw the bottle in the trash and left the bathroom. He went to his room and laid down on the bed
Araya Souta
I hope it won’t take too long…
Araya Yasu
*walks towards Souta’s room*
Araya Yasu
Oh, he’s just sleeping
Araya Yasu
*walks to bathroom*
Araya Yasu
I’ll go wash my teeth and go to bed too
Yasu started washing his teeth when he noticed a bottle in the trash
Araya Yasu
*lift’s the bottle up*
Araya Yasu
Aren’t these my pills…
Araya Yasu
Why is it empty… I’m pretty sure I had at least half left
Araya Yasu
*drops the bottle and runs toward Souta’s room*
Araya Yasu
*Touches Souta’s face*
Yasu called the ambulance but Souta was already dead
Nurse
I’m sorry sir, but he died around 1 hour ago
Nurse
There is nothing we can do
Araya Yasu
He was just alive…
Nurse
Sir, maybe we should call your parents, you shouldn’t deal with it alone

But Souta opened his eyes and he saw a room full of people, age around 10 to 20 years old
Araya Souta
(Who’s that?!?)
Ogawa Shin
Can’t you hear me?!
Ogawa Shin
Peak lord Endo has chosen you to be his disciple, you should feel honored!
Ogawa Shin
I’ll come to get you tomorrow at 5.30 am
Ogawa Shin
I’ll bring you to Peak Lord Endo, he’ll start training you
Ogawa Shin
You’re supposed to say “yes senior brother”!
Araya Souta
Yes senior brother!
Araya Souta
(What the f@ck is going on…)
Araya Souta
(Didn’t I kill myself, why am I here.)
Araya Souta
Excuse me, but where am I ?
Ogawa Shin
Are you stupid…
Ogawa Shin
This is Suijin sect, one of the great twelve sects in Mizukaze!
Ogawa Shin
How did you even come here, if you don’t know about it…
Araya Souta
Sorry, senior brother
Ogawa Shin
If you ask questions like this again, I’ll throw you out of Suijin sect myself
Ogawa Shin
I am Ogawa Shin, Peak Lord Endo’s first disciple
Ogawa Shin
You are his 34-th disciple
Araya Souta
(I still don’t know what’s going on..)
Ogawa Shin
Why did he pick you… he should have picked that girl!
Ogawa Shin
She is much better than you, she has rare spiritual root and she had more respectful personality
Ogawa Shin
But she was picking by the sect leader…
Ogawa Shin
I would have gotten a cute junior sister but I got you…
Araya Souta
Who are you talking about?
Ogawa Shin
Fuji Himari, she is ten times better than you, no 100 times better
Ogawa Shin
You are not on her level, she’ll probably be one of the most famous cultivators in the future
Araya Souta
(Fuji Himari… where have I heard that name before)
Kimura Kazuki
Senior brother…
Ogawa Shin
What do you want *glares at Kazuki*
Kimura Kazuki
I’ll bring him to his room myself, you should go
Ogawa Shin
Good, at least I won’t need to be near him anymore
Kimura Kazuki
I’m sorry about him, he’s always acting like this
Kimura Kazuki
My name is Kimura Kazuki and I’m Peak Lord Endo’s 10-th disciple
Araya Souta
I’m Araya Souta, senior brother
Kimura Kazuki
Do you have any questions?
Kimura Kazuki
You don’t need to worry, you can ask whatever you want
Araya Souta
What is Suijin sect?…
Kimura Kazuki

Kimura Kazuki
The most disciples has peak lord Tamura, with over 200 disciples
Kimura Kazuki

Araya Souta
(What’s qi level)
Kimura Kazuki
If you want to stay in Suijin sect, you need to be qi level 1 and you have 4 years to get there
Kimura Kazuki
But I’m sure you’ll be able to do it!
Kazuki walked Souta to his room
Kimura Kazuki
This is where you’ll stay
Kimura Kazuki
And I’ll come to get you tomorrow
Kimura Kazuki
Don’t worry about senior brother Ogawa.
Kimura Kazuki
I’ll talk to him, so I’ll come to get you tomorrow
Araya Souta
Thank you, senior brother
Kimura Kazuki
No problem, have a good rest junior brother
Araya Souta
What the h$ck is going on…
Araya Souta
*walks inside*
Araya Souta
It looks good…
Araya Souta
*lies down on the bed*
Araya Souta
Maybe it’s all a dream…
Araya Souta
Maybe Yasu got me to the hospital in time….
Araya Souta
*falls asleep*
Araya Souta-14 years old (qi level 0 : 120)

Kimura Kazuki
Wake up Souta
Araya Souta
It’s already time…
Kimura Kazuki
Yes and you should be dressed already
Kimura Kazuki
Get dressed, I’ll wait for you outside
Kimura Kazuki
*walks outside*
Araya Souta
(How do I put it on…)
Kimura Kazuki
Souta, why are you not ready yet!
Kimura Kazuki
*walks inside*
Kimura Kazuki
Why are you not dressed yet…
Araya Souta
I don’t know how to put it on…
Kimura Kazuki
I’ll help you this once but next time you need to do it yourself
Araya Souta
Thank you senior brother
Kazuki helped Souta get dressed and they went to peak lord Endo
Kimura Kazuki
Master, I bought junior brother here
Endo Ryuji
Okey, you can go now Kazuki
Araya Souta
*walks closer*
Endo Ryuji
*hands Souta book*
Endo Ryuji
This is book of our sect rules, there are 300 rules. Learn all the rules by heart
Araya Souta
*takes the book*
Araya Souta
Thank you master
Endo Ryuji
When you have learned all the rules I’ll give you books to learn martial arts and how to raise your qi
Endo Ryuji
And I’ll give you a token, that let’s you get in Suniji sect’s library first floor
Araya Souta
Thank you master *leaves*
Kimura Kazuki
So how was it?
Kimura Kazuki
For low level cultivator, he can be. Because he is qi level 4 cultivator and his aura is pretty strong
Araya Souta
Senior brother, have you learned all the sect rules?
Kimura Kazuki
I’ll bring you to Shinrei peaks cafeteria
Kimura Kazuki
It’s the peak we are under, there are six in total because there are six peak lords
Kimura Kazuki
Shinrei peak, Kongo peak, Rainin peak, Gekko peak, Soryu peak and Suzaku peak
They arrived at Shinrei peak’s cafeteria
Kimura Kazuki
I’m going now
Araya Souta
Don’t you need to eat senior brother
Kimura Kazuki
No, there are pills that cultivators take so they won’t need to eat
Kimura Kazuki
But your cultivation level is still too small for that
Araya Souta
(Eh?!?? No way there are such things…)
Araya Souta
(And who would learn 300 rules)
Kimura Kazuki
*hands Souta paper*
Kimura Kazuki
This is your schedule for now, when you reach qi level 3, you won’t need it anymore
Araya Souta
How long can it take to reach qi level 3
Kimura Kazuki
It depends. It can take 20 to 50 years or one may never become qi level 3.
Araya Souta
What do you mean…
Kimura Kazuki
They may fail becoming qi level 3 and become crippled or maybe even die
Kimura Kazuki
But it is safer when you have master
Kimura Kazuki
So you don’t need to worry too much
Araya Souta
Thank you for explaining senior brother
Kimura Kazuki
When you have finished eating, get back to your room and start learning the sect rules
Araya Souta
Okey senior brother
Araya Souta
*looks at the paper*
Araya Souta
(Morning jog at 5.30, breakfast at 7 am, 8 am training, 4 pm dinner, 5 pm training, 9 pm curfew )
Araya Souta
(Why do I need to go to bed so early and wake up early too, that’s so absurd)
Araya Souta
(It’s been two weeks already…)
Araya Souta
(That f$&king schedule is killing me…)
Araya Souta
It’s so boring…
Araya Souta
(But I have learned all the rules…)
Araya Souta
(I should go find Kazuki, I don’t know if I can go to master alone…)
Araya Souta
But it’s so weird…
Araya Souta
(These past two weeks I have been only one doing the morning jog and I haven’t even seen anyone in the cafeteria)
Araya Souta
(Aren’t there supposed to be 34 disciples here)
Araya Souta
(Only ones I have met are Kazuki and…)
Araya Souta
(I don’t remember his name…)
Araya Souta
Probably not important
Araya Souta
(But I need to get the token to library, so I can learn about this world)
Araya Souta
(Maybe then I can leave this place…because right now I don’t know anything about this world)
Araya Souta
(What was that girls name… I swear I have heard it somewhere…)
Araya Souta
(Maybe it’s not important if I can’t remember it)
Araya Souta
*leaves the room*
Araya Souta
(I’ll first look for Kazuki)
Kimura Kazuki
What are you doing out of your room?
Kimura Kazuki
Shouldn’t you be learning the rules?
Araya Souta
I have learned all of them
Kimura Kazuki
Then I’ll bring you to master
Kimura Kazuki
Good job Junior brother
Araya Souta
Thank you senior brother
Kazuki brought Souta to Endo
Kimura Kazuki
Master, junior brother has learned all the rules
Endo Ryuji
You can leave Kazuki, Souta come inside
Araya Souta
*walks inside*
Endo Ryuji
*hands Souta a paper and brush *
Endo Ryuji
Write all the rules down
Araya Souta
(All the rules! Is he crazy! It will take forever)
Araya Souta
I have finished master
Araya Souta
(My hand hurts…)
Endo Ryuji
*takes the paper*
Endo Ryuji
*starts reading*
Endo Ryuji
*gives Souta the token and a book*
Endo Ryuji
This book teaches how to raise your qi
Endo Ryuji
If you have and problems with it, come to me
Araya Souta
Thank you master
Endo Ryuji
You can leave now
Kimura Kazuki
Junior brother, did you pass?
Kimura Kazuki
I haven’t seen anyone learn the sect rules so fast!
Kimura Kazuki
You’re amazing
Araya Souta
Senior brother, is there something I need to know about the library
Kimura Kazuki
You can go to library between 8 am to 8 pm. The library has 5 floors.
Kimura Kazuki
Everyone who has gotten a token can go to first floor but to go beyond that, you need a approval or you need to be at least qi level 3.
Kimura Kazuki
But even I can’t go to fifth floor without master’s approval
Araya Souta
Senior brother, where are the other disciples?
Kimura Kazuki
They are either in closed door training, on a mission or dead
Kimura Kazuki
Disciples can die on missions, they can be killed by demons or by other cultivators
Kimura Kazuki
They can also die by wrongly cultivating or by suffering backlash when they didn’t get threw to next qi level
Araya Souta
Thank you for explaining senior brother
Kimura Kazuki
Junior brother, you should go to rest now, it’s curfew soon
Closed door training- Training done in seclusion, usually to focus on breaking through a bottleneck or to avoid becoming distracted at a crucial moment and suffering a backlash as a result.
Fun fact- Souta is bad with names
Endo Ryuji- 127 years old (qi level 4- 45600)
