The World seems Realistic but Why do I have a Leveling System?

"Then, why don't we get straight to the point? Because I feel like what you're going to tell us now will be something very important for my future venture."

Sheila said with a sullen tone as her expression hardened. Ever since she had gotten herself a system, her sixth sense has proven that it is no mere feeling that can be ignored but something that can actually affect her life if she had chose not to listen to it. Sheila had been relied on it ever since then, the reason why she was still alive and dandy until now. Perhaps, she might awaken to some sort of danger sensing skill somewhere in the future. That would be great if it came true.

And that very sixth sense was alarming her that whatever topic Angelica would address from now on would be something that would definitely change how she acts toward the future. Looking at Sheila, Ria understood something as she also formed a serious expression on her face while keeping her mouth shut in case she might disturbing their conversation. Angelica only cast a few glances toward Ria before turning her gaze back to Sheila and speak.

"What I'm going to tell you now is honestly can be said to be the secret of the world. So, I hope you don't go around telling others about it."

Sheila nodded her head in response to Angelica's remark before gesturing the latter to continue. Angelica took a moment for her to recollect the memories of the history that was being told to her from her mother when she was still a small spoiled brat. When she had heard of it from her mother for the first time, the small Angelica thought her mother was reading a storybook for her, like how a mother would do to their kids before they went to dreamland. 

The misunderstanding becomes even more rooted within her because the time happens to be at night, right before she went to sleep. It was only when Angelica had grown up a few years later did she knew that the one she thought as a storybook was an actual history of this world, although there might be some exaggerated parts here and there since the author was said to be her family ancestor. But overall, it was very reliable as the family had proven for the most important bits are all hold valid.

"In the distance past, while mankind was still developing their civilization and culture, a woman from Another World came into our world by accident. Yes, it's a person from an entirely new world, a world where magical creatures that flew in the sky that we now named it as Dragon exists on the Otherworld. Although we didn't know whether this is true or false, apparently the accident was completely unexpected. Anyways, when the woman stepped into our world, that's where everything started to change for the better, or maybe worse."

 I wonder why am I feeling deja vu when Angelica mentioned the keyword, 'a woman' and 'by accident'. I'm pretty sure I wasn't even born yet, heck the country I live now must have not existed yet at that time. Sheila frown at the thought while at the same time dare not to interrupt Angelica with her question, so she keeps her mouth shut for now. 

"At first, everything seemed to be fine but a few weeks later, the woman was surprised that she came across a rift in the sky, it was the same rift that sent her here to this world. The woman was thrilled, thinking that she could finally go back to her world but to her disappointment, the rift disappeared shortly after as if mocking her. Ever since then, the woman continued traveling all around the world, hoping that she would come across that rift once again. Even year after year, the woman continued pursuing the same goal while maintaining the same appearance as if she had not aged, not even once."

Ehh~ is that woman immortal or something? Sheila couldn't help but retort in her mind. 

"Maybe an entity like a god heard her wish and decided to fulfill it as in one fine day, the woman just happened to see a rift twisted right in the sky above her while she was fishing near a lake. Without a second thought, the woman pushed the fishing rod aside before whistling as loud as possible. It didn't take long before another small shadow showed up in the sky, it was an eagle that the woman had healed upon finding it injured the other day on the way here. It had been following her since then."

Ain't that cool? Having an eagle following you around like pet... while there's me who got a not-so-cool pet, slime. But then again, I could totally tame an eagle now easily after acquiring the skill. I might consider doing that later if I didn't forget about it. 

"The woman had been teaching the eagle all sorts of things and now, she was gesturing for the eagle to went through the rift. She knew of the danger posed within the rift as her case was one of the lucky ones, and for those who didn't have luck like her? their existence was erased into nothingness by the power of the void. That was just how vicious within the void was as not even the strongest 'sage' in her world could survive and escape from there if one someone ended up isolated within."

That's such a shame then. I was thinking of perhaps going to this other world, I mean, there's a dragon there you know?! Once I hit high enough level, I could tame one as a pet! Just imagine myself sitting on top of the dragon while it flew in an overbearing manner above the sky is simply the best.

"Anyways, the eagle went ahead without fear, perhaps not knowing what sort of fate waiting for it. The moment the eagle slipped through the rift, the woman lost her 'connection' with the eagle instantly. The woman thought the rift would disappear right after but, a figure suddenly appeared within her field of vision as it dropped down onto the lake followed by a huge splash. It was only after this figure appeared that the rift disappeared as if nothing was in the sky."

"That sounds like what had just happened to me a while ago."

Sheila couldn't help but interrupted into the conversation when Angelica spoke about how the first monster makes its entrance into this world.

"Exactly, that was the first monster to appeared into this world, thankfully the woman was there to kill it or it would cause a disaster and many lives would have been lost. And—"

"Wait! I understand what you're telling us but, where are the details about how this rift could appear in our world as you have only been talking about that woman, I want to know more about the rift instead."

Before Angelica could continue, Ria couldn't hold herself back and insert her opinion in the discussion. Sheila nodded in agreement, although she was curious about the woman, the rift is more important to her at the moment. If she could at least know the requirement(if there is one) to how the rift came to be, she should be able to avoid getting in trouble and let those people like Angelica handling it. 

Angelica pouts for a bit as she wants to tell them more about the hero she believes in but it seemed that the two had enough of it. With a sigh, Angelica started talking about the rift.

"Actually, our family figured out a certain pattern at how the rift came to be."

"Huh? Is it fine with you that you're telling us this? Aren't that kind of thing usually keep as a secret?"

"True but eventually everyone will come to know about it, sooner or later. So I was just telling you in advance, nothing much. Anyways, the rift would only appear around the place where the mystic power was a lot thicker than a normal place, let's see, an example of that would be the domain of a mage."

Mystic power? Do you mean mana by any chance? It could only be that right, I don't see any mystic power after all other than the mana in my surrounding. So that was the case, huh.
