Harry, a teenager, was having fun at his birthday party with his friends. Today, he had just turned eighteen and officially became an adult on paper, which meant he could legally drink alcohol. To celebrate this newfound freedom, he threw a party and went to a lavish nightclub with his friends.
Harry had 5 bottles of beer and was already out of capacity for a first timer. He said, "Guys! I am full. I cannot drink anymore. I am going home." It was difficult for him to even open his eyes. It was already 3 am, and all his friends were drunk, so he excused himself. As he was leaving the nightclub for his sports car, he lost control and threw up. He discovered that he had vomited on a person dressed in ragged attire who was sitting on the road.
He apologised, "I am so sorry. I did'nt mean it."
The man in shabby clothes felt humiliated. He said, "You rich people do not know how to respect anyone and can vomit and crush the poor as if they are beneath you. You should be taught a lesson. So I curse you that you will become an orphan and poor like me from now on."
A beam of white light shot from the poor man's eyes, striking Harry on his chest. Harry felt as though the world were spinning and everything was fading into darkness.
After an unknown amount of time, he came back to his senses. He was lying on a hard bed. He was actually lying on a mattress that appeared to be quite hard and filled with clothing when he opened his eyes. Since there was no real bed, the mattress was also placed on the floor. When he observed his surroundings, he found that the roof was quite low and it was a very small room with a window on his left.
Harry said, "Where am I?"
The next moment, he felt a headache, and a surge of memories flooded into his mind. The pain was only for a brief moment, and he felt normal again. He now understood where he was.
When the poor man cursed him, he seemed to have transmigrated to a new world called the Heaven World. He cursed, "What the heck? I said I am sorry. I do not want to be transmigrated. I had everything on earth, and my parents were rich. What should I do now?"
It was not his fault after all, it was his first time getting drunk. Anyways the deed was already done, and he was here in this new world. There was no point in regretting it.
When he searched through his memories, he found that in this world, his name was Alex, and he was an Orphan and was raised in an orphanage.
At present, he used to work as a delivery boy in a restaurant and was able to manage his university fees and the apartment rent somehow.
Tring Tring !!! Tring Tring !!!
Just then, there was a ringtone, and he found that he had a mobile phone ringing, with Monica's name on the screen. He received the call.
Alex said "Hello!"
Monica said, "Alex, where are you? We are getting late for the Awakening ceremony. I am waiting for you to pick me up. Then we can go together. Hurry up!!"
Alex managed to say "Okay! "
Then she cut the call.
Alex remembered that this girl, Monica, was also from the same Orphanage as he was and was also his girlfriend. Today was the Awakening day, and he had to visit the temple to complete the Awakening ceremony.
This world had twenty-five continents, out of which only five were ruled by humans, which was also called the Blue Empire. This was a cultivation and magical world that also had modern facilities like Earth.
Then there was the Green Empire, which had ten continents under it and was mainly ruled by the Magical beasts.
There was a Red Empire as well, which was ruled by all kinds of monsters such as demons, vampires, werewolves, etc.
In the Blue Empire, the society was divided into two classes one was for the cultivators, who were the rulers and dominant force of the humanity, and the second was the non cultivators who were the second class citizens of the country, also known as the commoners. Among them, almost ninety five percent of people do not have any cultivation. Only five percent of them could cultivate.
Even among the commoners there were high class people who had a lot of money and status, and there were poor people just like earth.
Monica used to go to the university with Alex every day on his bike, and today was the Awakening ceremony where in they had to visit the temple nearby in the town where thousands of the people across town will be gathered of any age above eighteen years to get the blessings from heaven. If someone was lucky they will get blessed today and will develop a core that will help them to cultivate.
Once someone becomes a cultivator there fortune changes, and even their family will get a higher status in the society since a cultivator was born in their family.
Alex lived in the city named Rock city and this city also had a temple in it. On the day of the Awakening ceremony, almost all the commoners gathered in the temple to get the blessings, which made up to a hundred thousand people.
Alex got up from the bed, freshened up, locked his small rented apartment, boarded his delivery bike, which was given to him by the restaurant owner for the delivery services, and went to pick Monica from her apartment, which was only two blocks away from his apartment.
Monica said, "What took you so long? You have never been late previously, and now, on the Awakening day, you had to be late. I am just sick and tired of you."
Alex said, "Sorry! I slept."
Monica said, "Okay! Let's not waste anymore time and go."
