Lukas, seeing the whole village coming out of nowhere, was shocked. He touched the ground and felt it was real, he punched the ground hard.
*BAAM*
The ground produced dust after getting punched, and he even got some of the dust In his nose intentionally, he smelled it eagerly because he really wanted to confirm his suspicion about this place being real, and after a whiff, he could confirm this place could not be more real.
How do I get out of here?
As soon as he thought of that, he instantly appeared in the outside world. He still remembered he had to be somewhere as he was getting free today.
He picked up the crystal one by one and packed it in his backpack and went outside. There were three more youngsters who were leaving with him today to a government facility.
" Let's go, we don't have much time. I have to go to Nirvana Crystal World and grind." A government employee came, he was wearing a suit but was in a terrible mood.
Lukas, as usual, didn't talk, but he sat in the front passenger seat, and three of the boys sat in the back without asking any questions at all.
" So, did you boys go to Nirvana Crystal World?" The government employee asked, he was just casually asking.
" Yes, I did. I almost lost my life. The thing told me I had an aristocratic blood lineage but almost lost my life inheriting it, and the old patriarch or whatever rejected me in the last moment," a boy from the back seat said. He looked frustrated.
"Yeah, once you get rejected by the patriarch, you're done.you can't even use the crystal any more You need to access through the NPC Portal Gates and work your ass off for a higher lord in the city or an inheritor." The government employee said, he sighed with regret, Lukas could understand that this man also had the same fate as the boy.
"So what's your story? You also got rejected"? Govt Employee asked while looking at Lukas.
" No, The Crystal doesn't work on me. It always says 'Error', see?" Lukas brought out a crystal and showed it to the employee so that he wouldn't enter the Nirvana Crystal World.
" Everyone has their own set of problems. I thought you looked intimidating and could inherit some lordly title," the government employee said with a smile on his face.
It took several hours for Lukas to reach his new apartment. It was near an NPC Portal Gate, and he could even see the gate from far away, it was glowing and was taller than a 50-story building.
"It's 200 meters tall and 50 meters wide. You can enter and stay for 3 days of earth time at most for now, but the more time you spend there, the more this limit can increase. The food won't be given by the government, as the people who were farming here on earth are farming in Nirvana Crystal World now, and you can just earn your food from that world too. As your body enters that world, the hunger can be satiated from that world too, so good luck. Don't overdo it. It all depends on you now." The government employee explaining this left in a hurry and gave four of them keys to an abandoned 6-story building.
Whole cities were being abandoned as people just needed to stay on earth for a few hours, and food was getting scarce. Lukas, who held the keys, opened the door of the apartment and gave the three of them their keys, and he personally took a small apartment on the third floor, he was not planning on staying on this world for long anyways.
" Don't disturb me. I don't want to go into that world. Now go." Lukas said this, locked his apartment, and getting inside, he saw an iron-built cabinet, which was huge, so he pushed it with all his might and secured the door of his apartment from those young fools who might barge in just to get him motivated or some shit.
" With this in place, I don't think they'll ever even move my door, but still, I need to do some foolproof planning." So Lukas pulled some more heavy items, like an industrial metal-made super-heavy sink, he had to use his whole strength to move it because he also pulled out a chunk of bricks with it.
" Alright, this will do the trick," Lukas said while looking at his living room fully blocked by the things he put in order to block those three young men.
Lukas, saying this, went back to the only bedroom he got, then pulled out his two crystals and got sucked inside it.
Lukas returned to where he left off before, but this time around there were five people in his village. Two of them looked intimidating while sitting on the ground side by side while others were doing their work. One strong man was in the [Smithy] and beating iron. Lukas smiled because he got nostalgic about his past life.
A beautiful woman was sewing clothes in the [Clothes] shop, and the last skinny man was swirling medicinal jars in the [Medicine] shop.
Lukas took a step only to see clearly who the seated people on the ground were. He knew one of them, that man was his father's (Genghis's) trusted general, Sabutai, and another person looked like a Roman.
As soon as Lukas took the step, all five of them stood up in shock and ran in front of him, then kneeled down on their knees.
"We Greet The Emperor" x 5
As a prince in his last two lives, Lukas was not in shock or baffeled in this scenario, he gestured with his hand to raise them while he also said it in a commanding tone.
" Rise "
Lukas then got a close look at them, they were breathing and were nervous as if they just saw an emperor. He then grabbed the woman's hand, as her wrist looked white and clean, and checked her pulse.
A Living Being, she's definitely alive.
The woman in question blushed hard, she had no idea what her Lord Village Chief was thinking.
