The various means of transportation they took were equally diverse in form. The main ones, of course, were vehicles, but aside from vehicles, there were actually horses, as well as some wild beasts and magical beasts. In addition, from time to time, some large birds would even sweep across the sky!

Moreover, judging from the attitudes of the pedestrians coming and going on the streets, it was clear that they had long since grown accustomed to all this.

Along the way, seeing with his own eyes these things that would have been impossible to witness in the Common Era, Evan Grant was utterly astonished! This city looked so familiar, yet so strange, that in the midst of this intertwining of the familiar and the unfamiliar, he couldn't even tell himself clearly whether this was the year 2014 CE, or the year 419 of the New Era!

“Magical beasts, skyscrapers, the Moon God Realm, four hundred years... In these four hundred years, just what has happened to this world...”

Chapter Six: Misunderstanding

“Ah!”

A crisp cry pierced the sky!

“Bang!”

The door was slammed shut!

Immediately after, the sound of tables and chairs toppling over kept coming from inside the room!

Evan Grant: “...”

“Uh...” Outside the door, Rachel Derek looked a bit embarrassed as well: “Grace really does dress a bit too casually at home... Mainly, I didn't expect you to ask to be discharged today, so I didn't have her get ready in advance, so...”

Evan Grant shook his head. “It's fine!”

A moment later, after changing her clothes and tidying herself up, Grace Harris finally opened the door. Her pretty face was still tinged with a blush that hadn't quite faded. As soon as the door opened, she immediately turned around with a graceful toss of her head and slipped into her own room!

“All right, go do whatever you need to do next! I'm going in to check on Grace!” With that, Rachel Derek didn't stand on ceremony at all, leaving Evan Grant behind as she headed into Grace Harris's room.

Back then, Derek's father was a high-level martial artist with ninth-rank strength, a quasi-innate powerhouse, who had once received a three-star honor badge awarded by Starshine City. Their living conditions weren't too bad—a 110-square-meter apartment was already considered quite spacious in this building.

After staying in the living room for a while, Evan Grant used the furnishings to figure out where the kitchen and bathroom were, and finally, his gaze fell on the three tightly closed doors. Of the three rooms, it was already known that one was the guest room where Grace Harris stayed!

After observing for a moment, Evan Grant walked up to the room on the left, which had no decorations on the door, and pushed it open! In his view, as the original owner of this body was a man, he probably wouldn't have pasted all sorts of paper cutouts or posters on the door!

However, as soon as he opened the door, he immediately realized he was wrong!

The room was simply furnished, with only a bookshelf, a wardrobe, a desk, and a soft bed. But the faint fragrance in the room, the set of school uniforms hanging at the head of the bed, and a white dress not far away, all clearly belonged to a girl...

“Derek, what are you doing!”

Before Evan Grant could hurry back and close the door, an angry and embarrassed shout came from the guest room door not far away. Immediately after, a gust of wind swept over, and a graceful figure appeared at the edge of his vision, striking out with one hand!

Rachel Derek...

She attacked him!

“Bang!”

A brief clash sounded in the small room. After a single exchange, Evan Grant staggered back three steps, his face turning a bit pale from the intense movement on his injured body.

“Bang!”

Rachel Derek instantly slammed the door shut, scolding, “Didn't I tell you before? You're not allowed in my room! Not at any time!”

Evan Grant looked a bit helpless. He hadn't inherited the memories of this body's original owner, Derek, and had assumed this room was Derek's based on his judgment, not expecting to cause such a misunderstanding!

But since it was his fault to begin with, and now that he knew where his own room was, Evan Grant couldn't argue with Rachel Derek. He simply went into his own room, closed the door, and disappeared from the living room.

At this moment, Grace Harris also heard the commotion and hurried out of her room, anxiously asking as soon as she stepped out, “What happened, what happened, Little Rachel, what's going on, did that guy do something bad again?”

Rachel Derek frowned. “That guy just can't behave himself as soon as he gets home. Who knows what he was looking for in my room! I didn't expect him to suddenly ask to be discharged and come back, so I forgot to lock my door.”

When Grace Harris heard this, she thought of the embarrassing scene she had just caused—being seen by him in her loose pajamas—and immediately raised her little fist in mock outrage, seeking revenge for her own embarrassment: “Teach him a lesson! He's just too much, Little Rachel, use your fourth-rank martial artist strength and give him a good lesson!”

“Of course, that guy clearly bullies the weak and fears the strong. If I'm not a bit forceful, who knows what kind of trouble he'll stir up! Just now, I used the first move of the advanced palm technique I just learned—Cloud-Pushing Palm. He...”

“Cloud-Pushing Palm!? Wow, Little Rachel, you've mastered Cloud-Pushing Palm? Even Paul Morgan, the only one in our class to break through to the first level of the Moon God Realm, hasn't grasped the essence of the Cloud-Pushing Palm yet. So, how is it? Is it powerful? Is it awesome?”

“Is it powerful? Is it awesome?”
