Florida Man in Magus World: Unleashing Liberty and Freedom

With a clear goal and inspiration, Felix worked on harmonizing mana and aura for six more days.

The status menu slightly changed after Felix's lifespan broke seven digits. He also achieved three of the seven goals. However, Felix had less than 24 hours to complete all objectives.

At first glance, this quest was impossible. It would take several days or months to raise the mastery of other skills to beginner level or learn a new skill.

But Felix had been accumulating lifespan for a reason. He stopped training and stood up. Opening his system shop menu, he navigated to the bookmarked page.

The one-day Chrono gym ticket was within reach. Felix purchased it without hesitation, spending a million years of lifespan.

A black ticket with golden Gothic inscriptions entered his only empty inventory slot, which he had prepared for this occasion. Felix turned to Jessica.

"Let's extinguish the fire. I'm about to use the ticket."

<No need to do that. You can activate it in your inventory menu.>

"Oh…"

Felix pressed on the item, which prompted him with an automatic message.

<Would you like to use the ticket?>

<Please note. You will be directly teleported to the Chrono Gym.>

<Please note. You will experience the Time Dilation Effect when you're training at the Chrono Gym. Class-D Ticket's time dilation ratio is one year in the gym to 25 hours in your world. Please prepare enough rations and daily necessities for one year before you activate the ticket.>

Felix paused and glanced at the stacks of items in his inventory. He had prepared enough food and freshwater to live for decades, except for any source of entertainment. Realizing that he wouldn't have anything to kill his time, he hesitated.

"Say, Jessica."

<Yeah?>

"Can I smoke when I get there?"

<No. The gym is a no-smoke zone. If you smoke, you'll be killed instantly.>

Felix was disappointed, but the rules were understandable, "I see. What about alcohol? Can I drink spirit beer when I'm there?"

<No. The gym exists for martial artists who need extra time to train. If you bring alcohol there, you will offend the others.>

"Wait, there are others? I thought I'd be alone in there."

<It's called a 'GYM' for a reason, you dork. It's a public gym for phoenixes. Go there and train. As long as you respect others and follow the local rules, nobody will mess with you.>

"…"

Without a choice, Felix gave up on the smoking or the party plan. He sighed deeply and activated the ticket.

*DING*

A gold beacon instantly rose from his feet. Similar to the way his Fate Plaza worked, Felix's body disappeared from this world. Experience more at m_vl-em,pyr

*WHOOSH*

A gold beacon shone upon a square platform. Felix's body was gradually reconstructed, being 3D-printed. Five minutes later, Felix opened his eyes, taking in the surroundings.

"Huh?"

The platform that Felix had been standing on was a one-square-kilometer floating black plate. Beyond the platform, nothing existed except flame tornadoes, ignited white gas, smelly black smoke, and worm-like tunnels of fire. A mysterious man with black wings also stood at the edge of this place, gazing at a distance.

As soon as Felix began looking, his knees and legs gave up on him. The intense gravity of this world pushed him against the floating black platform.

"AAAAAHHHHHHH!!"

The sudden gravity spike instantly crushed his bones and muscles. His skull cracked, threatening to squish his brain into meat paste and end his journey right there.

As gravity was on the verge of flattening Felix, a burly muscular man with black flame wings stomped on the platform, activating his special abilities. A new black platform emerged, hovering over the plate that they had been standing on. Only then was the gravity canceled, and Felix could breathe again.

The man approached Felix and pulled out a glass bottle of black liquid from his system inventory. He opened the lid and controlled his 'Essence', covering the container and preventing it from being burnt to nothing.

He gently directed the fluid into Felix's nostrils. The potion flowed through his nostrils down his throat and entered his stomach and lungs.

Instantly, all broken bones and his crushed skull were completely healed. The brain damage earlier vanished, and Felix no longer felt pain.

Felix was confused. He tried to move, but his body didn't listen to him. In the end, Felix kept lying on his stomach, looking at the floor.

The muscular man with black wings crossed his arms and crouched next to Felix. He started talking.

"The standard of this place has declined these days. How did they allow a baby phoenix here? This place should have been reserved for immortal phoenixes, not babies that can't even manage such a basic gravity."

"…W-Who?" Felix tried to lift his head, but his neck felt so heavy.

"Is the gravity still too much for you? Where are you from? Mu-Nyang Sector? Devil Sector? Esen Sector?"

Although Felix was still stunned, he digested the new information. Judging from his tone and words, it seemed that he had been teleported to another planet, a higher realm, or heaven where immortals lived. He tried to probe for more information by revealing his.

"I-I'm from Earth. My ancestor sent me to a godforsaken place infested with Lamias, mages, knights, and dragon bullshits."

"A typical magic and sorcery mortal world, it seems. That explains everything. Then, this place's gravity must be 1,000 times stronger than your world. That's why you almost died there."

The man looked up, gazing at the platform that he had created to cancel the gravity. He twirled his index finger, adjusting the gravity cancellation output.

The platform below hummed while the square plat above rotated, producing a circular wall, surrounding both platforms. The white gas, flame tornado, and strong wind vanished from the air around them. As for the invisible walls, they blocked the foreign substances of this world from entering the platform's territory.

The mysterious muscular man rested his hands on his waist and observed Felix. He encouraged him.

"I've adjusted the gravity of this place to match your world. You should be able to stand up on your own now."

Felix was surprised. He lifted his neck and moved his fingers, recovering his five senses. Pushing himself off the floor, he looked up to thank the benefactor.

The muscular man in front of him had dark skin, darker than anything that he had ever seen. No light reflected from his glossy skin and defined muscles. On his back, two black flame wings were also absorbing light as if they were black holes. His long black hair fluttered, reaching his buttocks. Only his pupil-less gold eyes shone, beaming at Felix's face.

He also wore a bright bodysuit, which produced gold light like his eyes. The tight suit resembled cotton gym clothes that students love to wear in winter.

Felix shook his head and snapped back to reality. He stood up and extended his right hand for a handshake.

"Thank you for saving me, sir. I'm Felix Ariel."

The man nodded and casually shook Felix's hand, "Singtowl Ariel, 2,237th Son of Simba Ariel, the Head Coach of Class-D Chrono Gym. I see that it's your first time here."

Felix was taken aback when he heard the man's name and surname. He dryly laughed, "So, we're related?"

"Sort of. As I said, my Prime Ancestor is the Transcendent Simba Ariel. Who is your ancestor, child?"

Once again, Felix was taken aback by the background behind his Phoenix family line. He scratched the back of his head and was about to say that he didn't know.

Fortunately, Jessica was there to cover him.

<Say the name, Leonardo Ariel.>

Felix gulped and repeated the name, "Leonardo Ariel, sir."

"Oh!" Singtowl widened his eyes and widely grinned. He looked excited, "A child from the Supreme Prime Ancestor, I see. That's why they've sent you here so early."

"…Erm, you lost me."

"You probably don't know anything about your ancestors and the family. It's a tradition of your family line. They usually dump their children and let some mortals adopt them. When they grow up, the family purposely kills their children and reincarnates or resurrects them in a foreign land. Those who survive and thrive may ascend and officially join the family. But those that fail will be thrown back to a mortal world, fated to be forgotten."

"…"

Felix blankly stared at Singtowl, closed his eyes, shook his head, and reopened his eyes in disbelief.

WHAT-THE-HELL?

His brain failed to register all information, especially the adoption part. He still remembered the parts when he was a 2-year-old child. He could also recall the event when he accidentally dragged his grandfather's loaded revolver with his two tiny hands and threw it into the basement, causing the gun to shoot a few holes into the ceiling.

Seeing Felix's strange expression, Singtowl laughed and lightly patted his shoulder. However, because of the strength difference, Felix fell face-first. His nose was broken and he lost four of his front teeth.

"Relax! Your 'other' family should have already received the compensation and reincarnated into a better place. Well, they usually killed the foster family and sent their souls to a better mortal world when the trial started. You don't have to worry about a thing."

Not to worry a thing?!

Felix wanted to yell at Singtowl's face if he was kidding, but he didn't have the strength to do so. He fetched a bottle of potion and drank it, healing his nose and regenerating his teeth.

"Anyway," Felix looked at the so-called coach, "What are you doing here, sir?"

"What do you think?" Singtowl grinned, "I'll be coaching you, of course!"
