Escaped From AI to a Fantasy World

Chapter 2 Censorship

Celia carries her unconscious and teleports to the front door of the mansion. Remix greets them by the door. He is worried about his son's unconscious state but notices that his wife is smiling.

"Celia, what's this about?" He is afraid that his wife overdid it in her demonstration. She doesn't know her own strength sometimes.

"Dear, he has awakened." Celia gives a short reply then remains silent to let the news sink in.

"Awaken? Wait– at 6 years old?! How's that possible?" Rimis is surprised. Generally children awaken at the ages of around thirteen to eighteen. Somehow Zephren has awakened more than twice as early.

"Yep. He says he can see a blue screen. That means he's sensitive to mana now."

""What the–" Rimis can't help being surprised again. Even after awakening, people generally need a few years of education to become sensitive to mana.

"Isn't that even more talented than you?" His wife is the most talented person that Rimis knows because she has awakened at age ten, which is four years earlier than the age that he has awakened.

"Hehe. I wonder who he has inherited from?"

"But, why is he unconscious?"

"I think that's because he has awakened too early and the brain is too underdeveloped to handle the influx of information. I had frequent headaches around the time I awoke and had to take a lot of naps."

After their brief conversation, they bring Zephren to his room and put him to bed. Celia insists on guarding him as he sleeps even though the mansion is already protected by several of her husband's highest class magic. Rimis simply shakes his head at his wife's overprotective nature and returns to work. As lord of the mansion, he has too much work to do and can't fall behind.

Zephren wakes up to his mother watching over him.

"Huh! My little sleephead's awake!" She shouts toward the direction of the door, where two servants are standing guard outside, "Galis, Draide, bring some food and water!"

"Mom? Why are you reacting like this to me waking up?"

"Zephy! You've been asleep for three days!"

"What?! That long?"

After waking up, Zephren remembers some information about his previous life. He used to live in another world but his world is taken over by artificial intelligence. He somehow escaped and now he's here.

There's a knock on the door. Celia gives the servants permission for entry and the servants come in pushing a cart full of food. Zephren hasn't eaten for three days so he goes full berserk mode on the food, eating them all without even leaving a single drop behind.

After the meal, Celia talks with Zephren. "Zephren, will you allow me to see your status window?" Zephren nods. The situation is serious whenever his mother uses his actual name. That last time that happened was when there was a monster outbreak and his mother ordered him to stay in his room.

Celia places her hand on Zephren's forehead. She injects mana into her hand, making it glow blue. The blue screen pops open a foot from her face.

Zephren is curious about his Reincarnation Boost skill so he asks, "Mom, what about asdfadsfe?" However, the moment he tries to mention that skill, he is censored. A message appears in front of him.

WARNING: BRINGING INHABITANTS OF ONE WORLD INTO THE AFFAIRS OF ANOTHER WORLD IS A VIOLATION TO INTERDIMENSIONAL LAWS! PLEASE DON'T DO THIS AGAIN, YOU ASSHOLE!

Why is this message so intense?! So, it seems like information about another world is censored.

There's another knock on the door. This time, it is Rimis. He smiles at Zephren.

"How are you doing son?"

"Good."

"Are you sure you're not hurt anywhere?"

"How can I be hurt when mom is here?"

Rimis laughs. "You won't believe it. She was standing guard for three whole days without eating or sleeping." To an imperial knight, such a task is no problem.

"Woah mom." Celia stands tall and holds her head high expecting to be praised and admired by her son. "If you stay with me the whole time for three days, does that mean you also haven't showered for three days? Ew!" Zephren gets off the bed and pretends to run away from his mother.

"What?! Son?! How could you do this to me?!"
