Transmigrating to Modern Earth from the Future-Chapter 7: Strange occurrences

Lumen got to work and decided that a good location for his 30 km run would be his own private airfield that he now resided on. The runway was over 1.5 kilometres long, and so he would only have to run the whole length of that 20 times to complete today's quota.

The 300 push ups and comprehensive weight training he could complete anywhere.

And so the training started as Lumen went out to the airfield and decided to get the 30 kilometre run done first before anything else. With his current stats at 53 stat points per each physical stat, he could achieve speeds double that of the fastest Olympic sprinters in the world. He could run 100 metres in less than 5 seconds!

With his now record breaking speed, Lumen could finish the first goal in under half an hour if he managed to complete the whole thing at full speed and no breaks. Not knowing the limits of his physical body, he was na?ve to think he could endure that with his measly stats.

But such a thing was expected of a being like Lumen who for the first time had a human body and was only now experiencing what it is like to be a corporeal being. 𝒃𝒆𝒅𝒏𝒐𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝙘𝙤𝒎

If Lumen still had access to his advanced knowledge of the human body then he would have known how wrong he was for thinking this.

Very soon, Lumen started his run and it was only after 1 hour that he finally pushed through it and completed the run, double the time he predicted it would have taken him.

This speed although fast, is only average in terms of feats of long distance sprinting by Humans as top marathon sprinters could complete an entire marathon (26 miles/42 kilometres) in a little over 2 hours.

This just goes to show how out of tune Lumen was with his body, as even with double the stats he didn't have the required control over his body to compete with people who train for that specific thing their whole life.

It took a whole 3 hours longer on top of this for him to complete the other two tasks, with the comprehensive weight training being the most difficult by far for him to complete as he had never even done something like weight lifting in his long life, as he never had the need to as a digital lifeform.

This finally explained to Lumen why the system was giving him body training quests consistently in the 2 weeks he had left to prepare for the opening of the Fantasia realm.

It was more for him to get used to his body and adapt to it rather than a simple strength building exercise.

"Many strange occurrences have been happening all over the world in the last few weeks as there have been reports of incidents involving 'supernatural events' to which have been unsolved to this day."

"There has been many new footages and recordings of people seemingly doing the impossible or performing miraculous feats which experts are still speculating on whether they are CGI or faked."

A female news reporter stated on a nationwide TV channel under the pretext of 'Breaking News' in the US.

"The white house has also released a statement claiming that they are also investigating these incidents and are taking the situation seriously. This gives a certain amount of credibility to these supernatural occurrences, which begs the question, just what is going on?" Another male reporter took over and started explaining some details.

A youth in his late teens with long black hair and an average looking face was walking down the streets of New York city as his face was plastered with seriousness, one particular shop he walked past was playing this special news report and he stopped to watch it for a few minutes, joining the crowd in the confusion surrounding the reports of supernatural occurrences.

This youth was different however, as he had no reaction to the claims of such reports.

This was because he was one of such reported supernatural occurrences.

To be more specific, on a rainy day a week ago, he had awoken in a stupor covered in sweat from his sleep. He had a nightmare last night, where he was being chased by large, scaly monsters and he was helpless to fight back as although he had some abilities of his own, his power just wasn't enough to combat these apex predators.

The nightmare ended when he eventually tripped over a protruding root in the ground, allowing one of the creatures to catch up to him and take a big bite out of him, separating his head and shoulders from the rest of his body.

It was at this point he woke up panting and intensely sweating.

That dream was too realistic!

His own ability in the dream only gave him a meagre control over his environment with a weak form of telekinesis. He could barely even lift a rock weight a little over a kilogram, let alone use this ability to fight back against these monsters and so he was doomed for death right on their meeting.

The youth thought nothing of this dream until when he got out of bed and entered his bathroom to do the usual business, without notice his toothbrush was floating in front of the door inside his bathroom when he opened it!

This caused the youth to fall onto his backside in shock as well as horror, as he recognised this occurrence...

This is exactly what he would do inside his dream when he thought of picking something up, like a small rock. Only this time he was subconsciously thinking of his toothbrush before he entered the bathroom.

'This can't be happening.... No no no no, please god this can't be happening!'

God didn't answer his thoughts however, as a familiar screen showed up in front of his face shortly after he started having a mental breakdown.
