That Time I Started A Life In Another World

Familial Problems

I battle against powerful evil creatures with my super cool sword skills.

I'm slowly losing against them, but then I get a power up and I do a finishing move which makes the whole world go white-

-???: "Wake up Chis! Breakfast is ready!"

I slowly start to open my eyes, but the bright light from the window makes me close them once again. I open them once again. They slowly adjust to the brightness, as I get off my bed, more energized than ever.

Chisou: "Coming!"

I get dressed as fast as I can and run to the kitchen.

I take a seat at the table where my mom and sister are already sitting.

For breakfast today we were having nothing out of the ordinary, but that didn't matter to me. I start putting all the food I can into my mouth as fast as possible.

mom: "You look extremely happy today."

Chisou: "Of courfe I am! I finally got a fword I can train with! I even got trained by Cilob!" I say, as some food starts to fall from my mouth.

mom: "I understand how excited you are, but don't talk with food in your mouth, alright?"

Chisou: "Mhm." I nod.

All of us eat our food in silence. My sister finishes first, so she stands up from the table and goes to the front door.

sister: "I'm going out!" She says right before leaving.

I noticed that she was more energized than usual.

I finish my breakfast second, so I grab the wooden sword that was lying next to the door and run outside as well.

Chisou: "Bye mom!"

mom: "Good luck sweetheart."

...

mom: "*sigh* Thank you Cylob."

I'm now outside, practicing the sword. I do the swings just as Cylob taught me.

I do one swing, two swings, five swings, ten swings, twenty swings. All for the sake of learning the sword.

After a bunch more swings I get tired and plop down on the ground.

This is so hard. But I have to be strong, so I have to keep going.

I stand up and start swinging the sword again.

I Swing and swing and swing and swing and swi-

???: "Take a break, jeez." I feel a hand on my head.

I try to turn around, but I'm so exhausted that I fall on my butt instead. I start breathing heavily and my hands can barely keep me sitting, so I lie down.

Above me is Cylob overlooking my lying body.

Chisou: "Cilob! I prac-" He puts his hand right in front of my face

Cylob: "I know that you're happy to see me, but just breathe for now. You need to rest."

I do as he says and take a break. He sits next to me.

After my breathing stabilizes enough, I sit and look at Cylob. I want to say something, but Cylob beats me to it.

Cylob: "I don't know what makes you work so hard and it's good to push your limits like this, but make sure not to overdo it, alright? I don't want my first student to end up too obsessed with sword training and end up ignoring other stuff."
