Chapter 2 - New member

After sorting through the rest of his memories and not finding else currently important, Arlyn put on a hoodie, some sweat pants and went for a jog outside to get a feel for his current body.

Immediately as he started jogging his body started to feel warm, from his current stature he could've easily gotten tired within the first few minutes yet as he continued going the warm feeling continued with no sign of stopping, each step he took slowly fixed everything about him, sunken panda eyes, malnourished body, old scars or injuries and even made him look even more attractive.

After jogging for 40 minutes he started doing basic exercises, situps, push ups, jumping jack's, plank and a few stretching sessions.

'Man this Trait is crazy, I feel like I could beat 50 of my previous selves just after doing an hour of basic exercises' He mused internally as he continued exercising.

'System, do you have an AI of sorts? or any information I could have?' Arlyn said in his head as he stretched.

[Good afternoon Sir, how can I assist you today?]

Arlyn raised an eyebrow and momentarily stopped his movements as the female like mechanical voice echo through his mind.

'So what can you tell me about the world I'm in right now and about the "Spiritual Revival"?' Arlyn thought as he sat down to take a break.

[Your world is undergoing a "fusion" of sorts, multiple energy signatures are continuously leaking into this world from various cracks in reality and the world is currently absorbing said energy to evolve itself along with its inhabitants]

[the reason why I call it "fusion" is because as long as those reality cracks exist, the world will continue to absorb all of that leaking energy and continuously evolve, leading it to birth even stronger monsters and stronger humans but humans will be inherently weaker still]

[You can think of the world right now as a giant nuclear power plant, it splits apart all of the energy leaking from the reality cracks and only absorbs the good parts and releases that energy everywhere else on its surface]

'So basically, humans have a chance to go extinct in the future?' He mused as he rubbed his chin with a thoughtful look.

[Maybe, Maybe not, it depends on if humanity wants to live, after all humans have both a dark and light side]

"I guess I'll have to eventually find some techniques for humans eventually, by the way, how big is this earth?" Arlyn asked as he pondered his current future path.

[The earth that you are on right now is currently 30 times bigger than your previous life's earth and still growing, think of it as a baby in its infancy with no determined end]

"so basically infinite? will resources like metals, plants and even cattle evolve? would be cool if I researched some stuff and maybe build my own little trinkets" he pondered as he started exercising again.

Arlyn was thinking about many things that involved science or biology such as YoRHa androids, Serums from marvel or even gene replication in DC.

[Yes, as the world continues absorbing more energy all matter will be going under continuous evolutions, the more abundant energy the item has the higher it is in it's evolution]

"hm?" while thinking about science based bodily enhancements he suddenly felt a repulsive feeling, like an innate disdain for his ideas of using external sources to increase his strength.

"damn, looks like my body has a will of its own..." Arlyn understood what it meant, true strength came from 99% hard work and 1% cheating, although taking Serums and potions give a boost to your power, later on when you reach your peak It will be significantly harder to become stronger.

After putting away his thoughts he continued exercising, after 5 hours of continuous movement he started getting tired and after stopping the warm feeling also stopped.

'looks like that warm feeling only appears when I'm actively training' He sighed as he walked back to his small and slightly dilapidated home.

After getting home he quickly undressed to go shower but before he got in he noticed something about himself in the mirror.

the once somewhat malnourished and tired body looked a little fuller now and even had some muscle contours around his arms and legs.

"man, this Limit Break ability is no joke..." he whispered to himself as he traced his faint muscles with his finger, afterwards getting into the shower.

———

It's been 1 week since Arlyn's arrived here, after the first day of exercising his body had basically almost fixed itself so he made a new training regime for himself, basically Saitama's training but multiplied by 3.

'System, Sign in' Arlyn said mentally as he walked through the bustling streets.

[You have Obtained [used juice box], Thank you for signing in]

[Arlyn Greier

Trait/s: Limit Break

Destruction Level: Small building

Sign in: 8 Days

Items: Cabbage, Garlic, Nokia Phone, .45 ACP Caliber rounds x5, Braised pork, Hedgehog spike, Oak wood x1, used juice box]

(a/n: I'm probably just gonna remove the item thing cause having to write a bunch of stuff would be so tedious, they'll still be there, just not visible)

"Small Building level huh?" Arlyn pondered, whenever he saw the destruction level tab on his system interface he'd always compare his power to people like Goku, Madoka, Featherine, Anos Voldigoad, Rimuru and many more characters.

What he completely forgot is that most fictional characters don't even get past planetary levels while the ones he's comparing himself to are beings who can destroy a universe with a yawn.

After finishing his inner monologue about how weak he currently is, he grabbed a quick breakfast sandwich before heading to his first ever Adventurer trial.

'Hopefully I'll be able to get my license the first time, having to do it multiple times sounds tedious' He sighed as he took a bite out of his sandwich.

After walking another 30 minutes he arrived at a gate with almost no security guards, after giving a one over the area he walked up to the the gate window.

(A/N: "one over the area" means he quickly glanced at the area)

After getting approval he walked through the gates and headed towards the dungeon, the dungeon he was doing his trial at was an F rank starter dungeon that majority adventurers start with because of how easy it is.

The trial was simple, you're given a wristband that can alert the advisor if you're about to die or have an emergency, while you're clearing the section the advisor is at the end of said section, all you have to do is make it to him without pressing the wristband.

As you can guess Arlyn passed with flying colors, after getting his adventurer license he goes to the supermarket to get discount and clearance items to eat.

While carrying home his groceries with a piece of dried squid in his mouth a sudden screen popped up in front of him.

[Would you like to join the Group chat?]

[Y/N]

Arlyn raised an eyebrow.

'System? is that you?' He asked internally.

[It certainly is not me host, I am a Tier 0 system while whatever that "group chat" thing is merely a tier 1 system]

'why the hell is another system contacting my host! dumb stupid tier 1 system, Hmph!' a certain little fairy huffed as she stomped her feet.

'Another system? does that mean there's other transmigrators and Reincarnators?' Arlyn asked as he opens the door to his home.

[Yes there are, they're also quite common too however strong Reincarnators and transmigrators are rare, of course that doesn't apply to you since I'm here] the system replied with a slightly proud tone.

"Should I join it? I mean since it's another system so it should be safe right?" He asked aloud as he settled down on his couch.

[Scans show there is no malicious intent, however I do not know exactly what this "Group chat" system does]

'Stupid host! you cheater cheater pumpkin eater!!! Hmph!' a certain little fairy said as she stomped her feet.

For some reason Arlyn felt a cold shiver down his spine as he accepted the invitation.

["One Punch Man" has entered the Group chat]

[I hate my world]: O-ONE PUNCH MAN?? Y-YOU-!!

[Masterful cook]: Welcome to the group, would you like to become apart of eternity..?

[Skeleton Queen]: H-hello there and welcome, for information you can read the announcements. I-I'm Suzuki Satoria.

[Fiery Spirit]: Hey hey! Welcome to our little family! I'm Kotori Itsuka!

[Navigator]: a new member? you have any gold I can nab by any chance? also welcome, my name is Nami!

[Express's Repairwoman]: Oh my, seeing the group leader gets so worked up is new, welcome new member~ you're free to call me Himeko~.

Upon seeing the first message, Arlyn understood that person was probably the group leader seeing as how she reacted to his forcefully given nickname, so he decided to play the role.

[One Punch Man]: huh? is this a new monster?

[I hate my world]: W-Welcome to the group chat Saitama... San, please read the announcement first before doing anything... please?

[Express's Repairwoman]: Why is the group owner so nervous? is the newcomer really that scary?

[Fiery Spirit]: yep! this is the first time I've seen her like this since I've joined.

[I hate my world]: you'll understand...

[I hate my world has published "One Punch Man] and has earned 50 points]

After all of the girls downloaded the file they instantly knew why the group leader was so scared.

The common saying, If you held up a singular grain of sand to the night sky, behind that grain would be an almost unknown amount of universes, enough to where humanity wouldn't even be able to find that number for billions of years.

Yet Saitama threw a punch so powerful that it transcended physical force, akin to just erasing entire multiverses in a single gesture.

After digesting all of the information the group members all collectively gulped audibly.

Himeko, being the Astral Express's Navigator and Repairwoman knows just how big universes are is probably the most impacted.
