Chapter 1

The summer light filtered through the windowsill, illuminating the room where a boy with white hair was waking up. Perhaps still groggy from just waking, the boy propped himself up with one hand and pressed the other to his head, trying to clear his mind.

"Yue, it's past the third watch of the day. Get up, I'm waiting for you in the courtyard."

An aged voice came from outside the window. Hearing this voice, the boy was initially stunned, then he jumped out of bed.

"Coming! I'll be there in a moment!" He shouted as loudly as he could, then began to wash up. "Really strict, it's not even six o'clock yet. Was my decision to come here to learn correct?" The boy thought about the decision he had made a few months ago, and couldn't help but laugh bitterly. "I'll think about everything later. At least I won't regret it."

After washing up, the boy left the room and headed towards the courtyard. As he walked, we could see a misty mountain peak before us. The boy was on the waist of this mountain, and looking down, there was a wide platform, which was the courtyard. On the way down, flowers of all kinds were in full bloom, and butterflies fluttered around. Seeing these butterflies, the boy couldn't help but sigh, "Was it Zhuangzi dreaming of being a butterfly, or the butterfly dreaming of being Zhuangzi?"

Why did the boy have such a sigh? This has to be traced back to five years ago.

At that time, the boy wasn't a boy, to be precise, he was a穿越者 (穿越者 means "穿越者" in Chinese, which can be translated as "transmigrator" or "穿越者") from the Heavenly Dynasty.

Five years ago, he was traveling in Akihabara, the holy land of otakus. While he was sleeping at night, a red light enveloped him from an unknown source. In a daze, he seemed to hear the words "summon" and "cause and effect." When he woke up, he had become a newborn baby.

As an otaku with the attribute of an orphan, the boy quickly adapted to his transmigration and began to plan for the future.

At first, he didn't know what he should do in the future. First, he couldn't determine whether this world was a high-magic, low-magic, or non-magical world; he only knew that the technological development of this world was similar to that of the 21st century. Second, he didn't have the typical "cheat" that transmigrators in countless novels possess.

If it was a non-magical world, being reborn into a prominent family would allow him to live a carefree life. If it was a low-magic or high-magic world, he would need to gain power as soon as possible.

It wasn't until one day when he attended his cousin, Shirai Kuroko's, full moon banquet and overheard the adults talking about the newly built Academy City that he understood what he should do.

"A world with 103,000 light novels?" At the thought of this, Shirai Yue felt speechless. "My cousin is a pervert," he thought, "I don't want to introduce myself to others like that."

Joking aside, the most important thing was what kind of superpower he would obtain and the so-called aptitude test!

To be honest, until he was three years old, Shirai Yue was still troubled about whether he should pursue the magical world or the uncertain future of Academy City. After all, magic was used by those without talent, and as long as one worked hard, they would inevitably achieve something. On the other hand, Academy City had a certain degree of uncertainty. It was known that Academy City was rife with corruption, and the aptitude test was one of the biggest black curtains.

However, Shirai Yue was later shocked by the sudden appearance of a "cheat" and determined his future path after some thought.

On his third birthday, a message suddenly appeared in Shirai Yue's mind: "Detection in progress." After a period of panicked waiting, Shirai Yue received the following information:

"Servant (Incomplete)

Master: None

True Name: Li Bing (Shirai Yue)

Gender: Male

Alignment: Lawful Good (Changeable)

Class Skills: None

Noble Phantasm: A++ Frostmourne (Ice Magic Sword with Curse)"

"First, let's not mention those two 'None.' Isn't Frostmourne the Lich King's sword? When did it end up here!"

Although Shirai Yue was surprised, he had to admit the authenticity of the information after successfully summoning the Frostmourne, which was filled with ice and curse, in a secluded and uninhabited corner. Although he didn't know when he became a Servant, the most important thing was that as a Servant, Shirai Yue had a way to obtain power!

After much deliberation, although he didn't know the origin, to prevent the A++ Noble Phantasm from being wasted, Shirai Yue decided to learn swordsmanship. As a person from the Heavenly Dynasty in his previous life, he wanted to study in the Heavenly Dynasty's mystical world. No matter what, the Shirai family still had some influence, and they could manage to contact the Heavenly Dynasty's mystical world.

However, it wasn't until he was five years old that he came because at the age of three and a half, Shirai Yue awakened his superpower as a rare Origin.

His ability was registered in Academy City's "Library": "Lv3 Ice Block Creation: Create ice blocks at -10°C within a one-meter radius around the body, with a certain degree of control over the density of the ice blocks."

Doesn't it sound weak? Of course not. Shirai Yue knew about a certain boss, the Hanging Man, so he wouldn't reveal his true strength. The data was just to deceive Academy City. Lv3 was just right, not too high to attract the attention of people with ulterior motives, and not too low to be useful for Shirai Yue. Moreover, as an Origin, they had no way of knowing if he was giving his all.

Soon, Shirai Yue arrived at the courtyard. What was called a courtyard was actually a square platform on the mountain waist. However, the platform was surrounded by lush flowers and beautiful scenery, so it was called a courtyard.

In the center of the courtyard stood an old man in a Taoist robe with a white beard, who was the current leader of the Shushan Sect.

When Shirai Yue first arrived, he was not very welcome. After all, this body was Japanese, and the Heavenly Dynasty's aversion to Japan had never decreased. It was only because Shirai Yue could communicate fluently in Chinese and a large sum of tuition that he was accepted as a nominal disciple, just to get by.

However, what is a Servant? After testing, the learning ability and physical constitution of the half-Servant Shirai Yue made everyone's eyes turn red. The main issue was that Shirai Yue only learned swordsmanship, not cultivation techniques, and he had a high level of proficiency in Heavenly Dynasty culture without any bad qualities.

Thus, from being completely ignored and left to his own devices, to being personally taught swordsmanship by the Shushan Sect leader, it only took three months.

"Pay respects to the Sect Leader."

What made the Shushan Sect members happiest was that Shirai Yue always used Heavenly Dynasty etiquette, behaving as if he were a person from the Heavenly Dynasty. (Although he was one originally.)
