Chapter 2 - Connecting to the Cosmos

Amon took his time to sort out his thoughts while pretending to listen to the lecture. It was only when the professor allowed every one to walk out, did he stop thinking about his system and his future plans. 

From the corner of his eyes, he saw Mike walking towards him and immediately sped up. He weaved through the crowd and climbed the stairs before he finally took a step outside. 

The only thing around him was debris. He saw powdered concrete, broken walls, crushed vehicles and bent steel beams that were embedded in concrete walls. He looked up and saw the starless sky that was adorned with just one single red moon. 

Even though he had seen similar things in his memories, he couldn't help but sigh when he saw it live. 

'It really is a post apocalyptic world filled with messed up dangers…' 

Soon, he saw familiar people walk out and pick up stones and rods. Some wrapped cloth over their fists while the others picked up random things around them. 

Amon too began to prepare himself. 

This planet only had a day time of six hours. Then, a 'night' time of 15 hours and 'darkness' for 3 hours.

It was currently night time and Amon knew that if he didn't hunt well, he wouldn't be getting enough food. Half of the people in his memories had died during combat while the other half were tossed aside for being too weak and the cause for this, was lack of food. 

Taking a deep breath, he looked around and picked up a broken brick. It fit well in his large palm. 

With the brick in hand, he walked over to a nearby pond and used some water to wash his face. Under the red moonlight, he saw his reflection. 

He was very gifted in terms of looks. A sharp nose, pitch black eyes, smooth skin and near perfect facial proportions. The only problem was that he looked pretty ragged at the moment. 

His hair was messy and dry while his face had a few small cuts that hadn't completely healed. 

As for his body, he was pretty lanky with barely enough muscle. The only thing he was surprised about, was his previous life's gift had come with him. 

Based on his memories, the previous Amon had a non existent four incher when hard and he also suffered from premature ejaculation problems. But now, he looked down and smiled before his expression turned dark. 

His huge guy below was something he was proud of, but it also brought back bad memories. 

'That was your past life… this is a new beginning.' he reminded himself as he walked back to the group. 

Stream on!

As soon as he activated his skill, a small camera floated a few meters from him. He first looked at the people around him who seemed to completely ignore this floating camera before he paid attention to the screen in front. 

[Stream Mode has been turned on! Connecting to the Cosmos!]

[Ding! Cultured Grandpa has joined the stream!]

[Ding! AjummaLovesBL has joined the steam!]

[Ding! Fake Warrior has joined the Stream!]

'Fake warrior, Ball Buster, Curious Kitty…. these names…' he thought, finding them familiar to the online usernames he used to see on earth. 

With a soft sigh, he looked around. People moved in groups of three, trying their best to scavenge for food. As for Amon, he turned to look at the two people beside him. 

A total of four teams, three members each. As for the professor, that man stayed at the entrance to keep guard. 

'Mike…' Amon thought as he saw the familiar face. He instinctively wished to make some distance but recalled his memories with the dude. 

He was a very likable person. Brave and reckless when it came to protecting his friends. 

'Right… he's supposed to be my closest friend.' Amon chuckled inwardly as he glanced at the petite girl beside Mike. She stood above 150cm with short hair that stopped at her neck. She had a cute face, one that she had painstakingly protected all this while. 

She was Amon's crush before the transmigration event. 

'She's cute indeed… well, she's got good survival instincts so I don't think I should be worrying about her.' 

As he recalled their past scavenging hunts, his expression darkened. The problem weren't the two in front but himself. This was because Mike was an awakened and the girl had good instincts, which enabled her to stay away from danger.

'To think that I tried to compete with Mike for Becky's attention… haaa, he's an awakened while I'm not.' he mused and chuckled inwardly as he recalled the gossip about him. Everyone knew that he had a premature ejaculation problem.

If not for Mike, Amon didn't know if he would've been kicked out from this group or not.

As he looked at them, he couldn't help but cover his face with his left hand as he chuckled. 

'A fucking love triangle… ugh. Things would have been better if Becky liked me instead of Mike but that bitch is pretty handsome.'

Mike and Becky looked at each other as they watched Amon act weird. 

'Maybe he's going crazy?' they thought but soon, pushed the thoughts out of their heads as Amon's expression turned serious, one that they were used to. 

'He's back to normal.' Mike nodded as he followed behind Amon, 'Maybe we'll find a half eaten corpse again… I don't want to fight those things.'

Becky on the other hand, chuckled inwarly, 'He's trying to act cool again… he won't give up even if I reject him a hundred times. Tch.'

Amon on the other hand looked forward with a complicated expression on his face.

[AjummaLovesBL: Hold his hand! Hold his hand! If you do, I'll give you more!]

A few seconds later, his expression went back to normal as he made up his mind. He wasn't going to push himself to do things he didn't like. 

As the trio walked, Amon received more and more coins along with many more messages but he didn't budge. 

"Stop." Becky said from behind as she grabbed Amon's shirt, stopping him in his tracks. Mike stopped too as he stared at two creatures in front. 

Amon who was distracted by his stream chat, looked at the creatures and pushed the chat screen away from his sight. 

'Blood Hounds and a Steel Spider…'

[A/N: Uhh… I have a nagging feeling that I did a lot of info dump in the first two chapters. I'll do my best to keep it minimal from next one.]
