I was Reincarnated in Another World with Absorb Skills

Chapter 4- Absorb Skills

Magic—it’s a term often found in fantasy stories, believed in by children and brought to life by professional magicians.

But not everyone believes in it. Some say it’s just for children and not for adults because magic doesn’t exist. I once shared that belief, but what am I seeing right now?

"What in the world is this!? Magic? Magic!? Hahaha, come on, there’s no such thing," I muttered, trying to convince myself as I stared blankly at the floating screen in front of me.

But no matter how many times I blinked, it was still there glowing faintly, with detailed text and shimmering icons. This can’t be real... or can it? I shook my head, feeling a cold chill run down my spine. The reality I once knew was gone. This world played by different rules.

Curiosity got the better of me.

"Fire," I whispered with a bit of hesitation, pointing my palm outward toward the open cave entrance.

To my shock, a small flame ignited and floated gently in the air before slowly fading. Hindi naman yun nakagawa ng kung anong sira, pero iniwan ako nitong gulat at hindi makapaniwala.

My heart pounded. I stared at my hand, now lightly scorched and trembling. The pain faded quickly, and right before my eyes, the burnt skin began to regenerate. Fast Healing, huh? That wasn’t just a lie on the stats.

"Oh. My. God," I whispered again, overwhelmed. “This isn’t Earth anymore… is it?”

I staggered a few steps back, sitting down and clutching my head. I felt like I was living in some video game fantasy world. The problem was, this was my reality now.

With trembling fingers, I tapped on the glowing screen again and noticed something that caught my eye—Earth Shop Dimension Magic. I read it aloud, and instantly, the panel shifted, revealing a digital-like store interface. My eyes widened.

There it was... an online shop filled with mouthwatering foods. Burgers, noodles, rice meals, fruits, candies. Even appliances, clothes, shoes, and everyday items were listed. How is this even possible?

"So how does this work?" I muttered and clicked on a Hungarian burger. A coin slot appeared on the side.

I blinked in disbelief. "Oh, so I need to insert a coin, huh?" I dug into my small pouch and thankfully, I had organized my coins earlier. May laman itong 5 gold coins, 30 silver coins, at 50 copper coins. Kinuha ko ang isang copper coin at maingat na inihulog sa slot.

In a blink, a box materialized beside me with a soft thud.

I opened it slowly and the warm, savory scent of grilled meat and sauce hit me like a comforting hug. My stomach growled loudly, and I smiled more widely for the first time that day.

"Ummm," I moaned as I took a bite. "God, this is yummy!" My eyes widened at how soft the bun was and how juicy the patty tasted. It’s real. It’s all real.

Hindi pa ako nakuntento. I tapped again and ordered a full meal—steaks, rice, vegetables, water, and a bar of chocolate. I inserted five copper coins, and just like before, lumitaw na naman ang mga box na may lamang pagkain sa gilid ko. This was unbelievable. This is what life should be.

After I'm done eating, I continued to explore the shop and ordered a soft cushion, two pillows, a warm blanket, and even a small portable lamp that lit up like fireflies in a jar. Gusto kong gawing kumportable kahit papaano ang loob ng kuweba. I spent 8 copper coins for everything, but I didn’t care, it was worth every bit.

Night had fallen. The cave was silent, the sky outside is dark, sprinkled with stars. I snuggled into my warm bedding, letting the day’s events wash over me.

"So much has happened that it's still unbelievable," I whispered, gazing up at the stone ceiling. My chest ached slightly from the overwhelming realization, I died. I was reincarnated. And now... this is my new life.

Napapikit ako at naalala si Goddess Lisha. Her calm voice and warm smile lingered in my mind and I don't know why but she's... kind off familiar.

She said I’d be safe, that she’d bless me. I wanted to believe her, even if everything still felt like a dream.

"Goodnight, Goddess Lisha," I murmured. "Please guide and protect me in the coming days."

At sa unang gabi ko sa mundong ito, I finally let go. I drifted into a sweet sleep, wrapped in warmth, filled with curiosity and fear for what tomorrow might bring.

But one thing was certain… my new life had just begun.
