Chapter 2: First Transmigration as a Mob
--- Chapter 2 ---
"Uugh."
"What happened? Where am I?" Baek Ain opened his eyes and felt a heavy sensation all over his body. Let's not talk about moving his body around because lifting a finger is hard for him now.
[Ding! You have transmigrated to Battle Through the Heavens]
[You were the nameless lackey of Jia Lie Ao from Wu Tan City, who got beaten into half-dead by Xiao Yan]
Baek Ain gritted his teeth in disbelief because this world and those names sounded familiar. "You gotta be kidding me..." He cursed while closing his eyes.
"Out of all things, I got transmigrated to this world? Even though BTTH doesn't have that much of a threat at the beginning of the story, there are still dangers everywhere. And me being a mob character is a huge negative point already."
"Anyway, I'll get my revenge later." Baek Ain indifferently whispered, recalling the unfortunate event that ended his first life.
The mysterious woman, the centipede guy, and the Goddess of Opportunity if he found out she was hostile and the cause of all this.
Baek Ain took a deep breath and calmed his mind, figuring everything out one after another.
First, he got transmigrated into a mob character in the Battle Through the Heavens world.
Second, there is higher power influencing this event, whether they are horrible or good to him.
Third, Can I die again?
Fuck this transmigration.
After an hour of contemplation, a monotonous voice echoed in Baek Ain's head.
[Ding! Do you want to sign in Ji Lie Clan's Manor?]
"Oh yeah, you're there." Baek Ain rolled his eyes.
"Explain your feature system."
As cliche as it sounds, Baek Ain had read countless novels with system elements in his previous life when he had spare time. He was still shocked by this uneventful fate but decided to accept it.
[The system bound to host is the "Incomplete Sign-in System."]
[It has a function to sign in a unique location of the world, obtaining great rewards depending on the aura of luck or how dangerous that place was]
[Usually, the host could sign in once every day or 24 hours. However, the "Incomplete Sign-in System." is increasing the cooldown to once every week]
[There are also Status, Inventory, Map, and Mission functions]
"Can I reject the mission?" Baek Ain questioned solemnly.
[The host is entitled to reject any mission, but any quest issued by the Goddess of Opportunity will be automatically accepted and must get finished]
[They are necessary for your growth and survival]
"My survival, your ass..." Baek Ain couldn't believe this system at all.
[...]
[Ding! Do you want to sign in Ji Lie Clan's Manor?]
"Yeah."
[Ding! You have received 3x 1st Tiers: Wound Healing Pill]
Baek Ain used one immediately and listened to the system about absorbing the pill's healing properties.
The next day, Baek Ain lifted himself from the bed and moved around awkwardly. This body is so lacking compared to his past self despite getting nourished by Dou Qi in this world.
Well, what did he expect from a mob?
"Open status."
[Name: Baek Ain]
[Race: Human]
[Age: 14(Irrelevant)]
[Innate Skills: Breathing(F), Synthesize(B), Soul Protection(Unknown)]
[Cultivation: 4 Stars Dou Disciple]
[Martial Techniques: Frog Leap Kicks, Willow Tree Muscle, Rock Fist]
Baek Ain glanced at the martial techniques, shaking his head because these three were at the lowest of the lowest grades of martial technique in this world. The mob trained these techniques because they are the most common Dou Techniques in Wu Tan City.
He moved his gaze to the innate skills and checked them out.
[Name: Breathing]
[Type: Passive/Active]
[Grade: F]
[Description: An innate skill that allowed the wielder to breathe properly]
[Name: Synthesize]
[Type: Active]
[Grade: B]
[Description: An innate skill that lets the wielder fuse two compatible skills with similar effects/functions. Only B Grade or lower grade skills could get fuse without backlash]
[Name: Soul Protection]
[Type: Passive]
[Grade: Unknown]
[Description: The wielder's soul is "completely." protected from all harm in the vast universe. Not even god-like beings could destroy the soul that was guarded by this Skill, entitling the wielder to transmigrate into a new body without any problem]
[Transmigration Count: 1]
"..." Baek Ain was speechless. What an uneven quality of Innate Skills he possessed here.
Breathing Skill is somewhat questionable but valuable in several situations. And Synthesize Skill sounds strong as fuck.
As for Soul Protection, it seemed to be the cause he could get into this second life. Baek Ain could only sigh in defeat because he couldn't enter either heaven or hell.
He got trapped in this Endless Transmigration Cycle.
The mob's memory has entered Baek Ain's mind, melting into a singular storybook. A nameless lackey whose only good point is being on the side of a half-assed antagonist.
He mentioned a good point because this mob bootlicked Jie Lie Ao like no tomorrow, hoping to get some rare Dou Techniques and Dou Pill from him.
And yes, he received some benefits like this house on the outskirts of Ji Lie Clan Manor.
Grabbing some new clothes, Baek Ain went to the nearest river as this mob was too poor to afford a mirror. He arrived at the gentle-running river and washed his body.
'The face is similar to mine when I was a teenager, but fucking hell. They have to nerf my decently handsome face to this bland-looking kid.' Baek Ain also noticed this body was way too skinny.
He is around 143 centimeters with ear-length spiky black hair, hazel gold eyes, and an unhealthy complexion. His body is skinny, with some bones poked out here and there.
"Let's gather information and fix this scrawny body first. I remembered some events of this world, but it's been a while since I finished the story."
"I want to laze around, but this damn mission is preventing me from doing it."
[Quest: Become Stronger]
[Objective: Reach 5 Stars Dou Grandmaster(0/1)
[Time Limit: One year]
[Reward: A Complete Sign-in System]
[Penalty: Unknown]
"An unknown penalty... For fuck sake." He cursed again.
"What's worse than dying?"
"Getting tortured probably, huh?"
Baek Ain shook his head and slapped his cheek, plastering the red hand mark there. He used his innate skills and heard a notification.
[You're breathing...]
[Breathing's Proficiency increased by 5%]
He smiled helplessly and commented, "Let's start."
...
...
A week later, Baek Ain arrived at the Auction House held by the branch of the miteer family. He couldn't enter without an invitation or high-ranking badge, but being Jie Lie Ao's lackey allowed him to wait at the front gate.
As the arrogant young master went with his rich daddy inside to taunt the protagonist, Baek Ain slipped through the guard and went to the garden nearby.
[Ding! Do you want to Sign In the Miteer Auction House?]
"Yes." A smirk appeared on Baek Ain's face.
Baek Ain has been planning for this because all the clans in Wu Tan City are hard to get by. His only option to sign in safely was Mitter Auction House, which possessed a large amount of treasure.
[Congratulations, host! You have received Sharp Tiger's Blade and Ya Fei's Panties]
"Y-You, what are you holding!" A panicked sweet voice brushed Baek Ain's ear.
"T-That's mine..."
Baek Ain turned around and saw a beautiful woman in a red robe. The tight, red dress thoroughly hugged her exquisite body. She has long, flowing blonde hair and blue eyes.
She blushed in embarrassment and anger while pointing at the red cloth in his hand.
'Well, fuck me.' Baek Ain thought he would die and transmigrate again today.
