1: Chapter 1 Ding! Transmigration cheat code received!
"Lin Fan!"
"Lin Fan!!"
In a daze...
Lin Fan seemed to hear someone calling his name.
At first, the voice was so faint it was almost inaudible.
Like the buzzing of a mosquito.
But gradually...
The voice became clearer and clearer.
Finally, it turned into a sharp shout.
It exploded right by his ear.
"Ugh... who's calling me?"
"Aren't I already dead? Could it be the Black and White Impermanence coming to take my soul?"
Lin Fan thought groggily, struggling to respond.
But his body felt as heavy as lead.
His consciousness was also as chaotic as if he had been asleep for a thousand years.
Bang!!
"Lin Fan, wake up!!"
A loud slap against the desk rang out.
The shock made Lin Fan's whole body tremble.
Immediately following that...
An impatient female voice sounded in his ear.
This sudden commotion finally startled him completely awake from his deep sleep.
Lin Fan suddenly bounced up from his chair.
He stood there blankly.
He looked at the young girl in front of him with a face full of confusion.
She was an exceptionally beautiful girl.
Her skin was fair, and her figure was slender and graceful.
On her delicate oval face, her jawline was soft and smooth.
Her long, fiery red hair hung down to her waist.
A pair of sharp black eyes were glaring at him impatiently.
Her bright red, full lips were slightly pursed.
With a hint of disdain, she vaguely revealed two rows of pearly white teeth.
The girl looked to be about eighteen years old.
Her clothing made Lin Fan even more puzzled.
On her upper body, she wore a white long-sleeved shirt.
For her lower body, she wore a black over-the-knee skirt.
On the left chest of the shirt, a striking dragon-shaped badge was embroidered, and a large red cloak was draped over her shoulders.
This outfit was exactly like the mage uniforms in the anime Lin Fan used to watch.
"What are you staring at me for? Do I look like a ghost?"
"Don't just stand there like an idiot, hurry up and give me the library access permit!"
"I really don't understand how the academy could keep a waste like you, who sleeps on the job, here!"
The girl snorted coldly and spoke irritably.
Lin Fan: "..."
Access permit?
What access permit?
Seeing that Lin Fan was still standing there in a daze without the slightest reaction...
The girl stomped her foot in anger, dropped the line "I'm going to report you," and then turned and left in a huff.
After the girl left, Lin Fan slumped into the chair behind the counter... he had been sleeping here just before.
Countless questions surged in his mind, but he couldn't find any answers.
The most urgent question right now was...
"Wasn't I killed by a truck? Where on earth is this place?"
Lin Fan scratched his hair, racking his brains as he thought.
He looked around and found himself sitting at a counter.
The door behind him was open, and inside was a library.
The tall bookshelves were filled with thick books.
Between the bookshelves, there were also several tables and chairs for people to read.
He looked down at what he was wearing.
He discovered he was wearing the same style of uniform as that girl just now.
A white shirt embroidered with a dragon-shaped badge,
a pair of somewhat faded black trousers,
and a worn-out white cloak.
Lin Fan could tell at a glance.
His uniform was much older than that red-haired girl's.
It should have been replaced long ago.
After realizing these details, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.
"Could it be... I've transmigrated?!"
As a veteran manga fan and anime lover,
he was all too familiar with this kind of plot!
Isn't this the standard opening for transmigrating to another world in manga!
The moment this thought emerged,
a massive flood of memories suddenly surged into Lin Fan's mind.
The intense pain made him unable to stop himself from clutching his head, and his forehead was instantly covered in cold sweat.
The process of memory fusion lasted for several minutes.
During that time, Lin Fan only felt a splitting headache, as if his head was about to burst.
When the flood of memories finally subsided, the headache also gradually eased.
Lin Fan lay weakly on the counter, his whole body soaked in sweat, as if he had just finished a marathon under the scorching sun.
It took a full five minutes before he recovered his strength and sat up straight again.
Although his head still throbbed slightly,
this bit of pain was nothing to him.
His pain tolerance wasn't that weak.
Lin Fan began to sort through the extra memories in his mind.
First, he learned that the world he was currently in was called Blue Star.
This was a world where magic flourished, inhabited by mages who could manipulate various elements to launch attacks.
Everyone, at birth, would awaken an elemental attribute belonging to them.
Of course, on Blue Star, humans were not the only intelligent beings.
Magic beasts and the demon race also inhabited this land.
Most magic beasts occupied the deep mountains and old forests outside the cities.
The demon race, on the other hand, crawled out from Spatial Rifts and usually occupied abandoned cities and various forbidden areas.
The so-called Spatial Rifts were fissures that appeared out of thin air between heaven and earth.
These fissures were like gates connecting two worlds, opening a passage for the demon race to invade Blue Star.
Secondly, Lin Fan also learned about the background of this body's original owner.
The original owner shared his name, also called Lin Fan.
He came from an ordinary family; his parents were both common people, not mages.
There was also a fifteen-year-old younger sister in the family.
Only one year remained until her elemental awakening period.
On Blue Star, the elemental awakening period for people is between sixteen and seventeen years old.
Once past this age without awakening an element, one could only be an ordinary person for a lifetime.
The original owner's luck was actually quite good.
In his fifteenth year, he had prematurely awakened an extremely rare element.
Space Element.
This news had made the original owner's parents ecstatic.
They firmly believed their son was a once-in-a-century magic genius.
To give the original owner the best magic education,
his parents exhausted everything to send him into a magic academy in the city.
But reality was incredibly cruel.
Four years had passed.
Yet the original owner's magic cultivation had not progressed an inch.
He had remained at the lowest level, the Mage Apprentice realm.
"What a tragedy."
Seeing this part of the memory, Lin Fan couldn't help but sigh softly.
In the past four years, because his talent was too poor, the original owner had suffered bullying and humiliation from others.
Even the academy had cut off all financial aid to him.
In order not to add to his parents' burden and to continue his path as a mage,
the original owner had no choice but to find a part-time job in the academy's library.
Ultimately, he died suddenly at his post due to overwork.
It was at this time that Lin Fan from Earth was able to soul-transmigrate into this body.
"Sigh, brother, you lived your life too miserably."
"Don't worry, from now on, I will take good care of your parents and sister for you, just like I would my own family."
Lin Fan sighed lightly, a hint of melancholy in his tone.
He couldn't help but think of his family far away on Earth; he wondered how they were doing now?
Were they mourning his death in grief, or were they already preparing for his funeral?
"There's no use thinking about these things. Since I can't go back, I should live well and cherish everything before me."
Lin Fan shook his head with resignation.
He had completely accepted the fact of his transmigration.
"But... according to the tropes of transmigration novels, shouldn't there be a cheat? Where is my cheat?"
Lin Fan muttered to himself with some confusion.
The moment he finished saying this, he immediately regretted it.
It turned out happiness came so quickly!
