“Tomorrow... Tomorrow afternoon. I’m closing now, so I will touch it tomorrow morning. Then you can come take it.” I say to the customer in front of me, an old lady.
A usual case of a smartphone going to shit and the owner wanted to recover everything that was on it. Family pictures, contacts, documents...
After saying my goodbyes to the old lady, I go to the back of the store and shout.
“Mr. Razin, I’m going now! I will close the front door!”
“Yah, yah! Thanks, kiddo!” The man shouts in his rough voice from the back.
He is my boss.
I work in this small Electronics shop. Those that repair a little of everything to the people nearby. Mr. Razin repairs refrigerators, stoves, and microwaves, and installs things too...
I’m the guy that deals with the more modern things, like laptops, smartphones, cameras... I was lucky to land this job. That was one of my few skills. I was always the curious type, to disassemble everything before putting everything back.
My parents are never happy with it. My brother always snitched on me too. He was good at it, always snitching at the exact moment before I re-assemble everything...
So I kinda suppressed this “talent” for a long time before taking it back in a form of rebellion. Yes, being a nerd was my rebellious phase. Lame~ Other people would use drugs and steal, but I don’t want to give my parents any reason to disown me or let me in prison.
I walk down the streets of Seattle pulling my hood up. I’m still in my first world, the world of the movie Chronicle.
I’ve been living here for a year and yes, I can already move to another universe with my powers, but I’m preparing a little. I will do it tomorrow.
When I Jump, I will re-start from square one. No home, no job, only the things that I can carry. So I planned something big to be able to carry a lot of things... Yep, time to commit my first big crime.
I already committed some small crimes, like breaking the bones of a guy trying to rob me, but nothing on the scale that I had planned.
But that is for tomorrow, today I will keep with my routine, so I’m going to work out like I’ve been doing consistently for nine months already.
The beginning was hard, living here I mean, I even went homeless for some weeks just to be sure.
Not that I was completely hopeless or helpless. It’s just that I had no incoming, so I took the hard decision of giving up housing. I had my powers already so it was somewhat safe even in the streets or when I invaded some empty house. That was another of my minor crimes.
I enter the gym, giving a nod to the receptionist before walking to the locker room to change clothes.
Today is leg day, ugh. But I can’t skip it.
While changing my clothes, I sneak a peek at the mirror and give myself a nod of approval to my body.
Nothing exaggerated, but my body at least is more proportional than my former scrawny self. I’m all natural, obviously... Focusing on gaining core strength with calisthenics and stamina with cardio, beyond increasing my muscle mass with the rest of the exercises. My goal is further than simply getting some muscle and looking bigger.
I’m laying the foundation, I can’t do much here in this normal world, but I can at least hit the gym and get healthy.
I go on the treadmill and start thinking about my favorite thing... My future plans. Now that I’m so close to the next jump, I’m getting all excited again.
My two mechanics are limited, so I need to lay a plan. Choose my future worlds in a certain order to maximize efficiency.
I can travel anywhere, but I can only use [World Attunement] every five years(for now), but it would be a waste to stay here for four more years.
But it would be useless to jump into a world where I can’t learn anything, so the best course of action is to go to worlds where I can get things. Some useful magical item or piece of technology.
That’s also another topic... What should I focus on first? Magic or Science?
I can go to an isekai world where everyone has mana and start my training, but I think should hold it for now... I have a theory about [World Attunement].
So, how do I think [World Attunement] works in fact?
Apparently, it gives me the potential to learn the power system of the world but doesn’t give me abilities if they are not super common.
The best example is that if I go to Jojo and use [World Attunement] I will be capable of using Hamon but I will not gain a Stand immediately.
I can gain one though, with an arrow. [World Attunement] gives me the potential to do that.
But that is because everyone has the potential to use Hamon. It’s like Haki, Nen and Ki.
Cursed Energy is another example... If I go to the Jujutsu Kaisen world, I will probably gain Cursed Energy, but I will not be a sorcerer. Because the percentage of jujutsu sorcerers is very low.
The supernatural powers need to be at least 90% common to me to gain the ability.
And even if I become a Jujutsu Sorcerer, I will not gain an Innate Technique.
If I go to the Harry Potter world, I will not become a wizard because the percentage of the wizard population is low too. The same thing with force force-sensitive individuals in Star Wars.
But I guess this 90% line will lower in the future till I am able to gain powers even if only 0,1% of that population has them.
Another thing is that [World Attunement] makes me average in that world. I will not be super talented.
So I should focus on going to worlds where “everyone has it but not everyone learns it”. One Piece, HunterXHunter, Naruto and the many fantasy worlds with mana are good examples.
But maybe I should hold down a little before going to learn the power systems of these worlds.
First and again, I’m average! That’s what [World Attunement] does.
I can learn things but I do not gain unique abilities or become super talented or anything like that.
I will never be Gojo, I can only be Kusakabe.
I will never be Goku, I can only be Yamcha.
Or Naruto and Sasuke... I can’t even be Kakashi, I can only be Iruka.
I gain the average talent. Average... It’s humbling. It’s good that I keep that in mind. Right now, I have the power to make me feel like a god in this low-level modern world. I need to remember myself that I’m simply a background character in the great scheme of things.
My advantage is that I can learn everything. With time I will be OP. With time... I need to find a way to become Immortal too.
Yeah, it’s not in the package being immortal, healthy, having mind defense and those things. I need to get those things on my own. Hence why I’m hitting the gym.
But maybe there’s a way... I way to surpass everyone.
Again, I will receive the average talent each time I use [World Attunement]. The thing is... I think it stacks!
I had the idea when I was reading a Chinese xianxia novel recently.
This world has the same fiction as my other world, a good part of my studies is about future worlds to visit. Yep, reading fiction is part of my studies.
So, I was reading this cultivation novel and there’s a moment that turned up a lightbulb in my head.
The moment is a cliche “Danger situation becoming a fortuitous encounter” to the lucky protagonist.
He was losing, encircled... Then he was forced into a dimensional crack by his foes. It was a death sentence till it was not.
He had a treasure that protected him and he safely crossed to another plane. A higher plane.
That treasure reformed his body, which was destroyed by the spatial storm of the dimension crack, in this new world.
The thing is that the new body is much better! Because of the treasure and because of the higher laws of the new world. His potential, talent, physique and even appearance were improved...
So... What if this happens to me every time I use [World Attunement]??
What if is like a +1 Average Everything Bonus?
Maybe right now my body is qualitatively 2 times better than the average. I gained muscle mass faster, now that I think about it...
Other things support my claim. My acne disappeared a little, my hair is not that frizzy anymore, and I didn’t get that change-of-season cold that I always got...
Okay... Maybe is puberty.
But there’s one thing... My lens thickness decreased! This doesn’t happen normally...
It is like a nerfed version of what happened with Peter Parker.
My body become better. I’m receiving a boost with each attunement!
Even if it’s average, if I attune myself to other 10 or 20 worlds, I will start to become a talented individual even to Main Cast standards!
The thing is the cooldown... Five years... to attune myself with 10 worlds it would take 50 whole years. That’s a lot! That’s a life!
I hope the cooldown decreases with time, but even if not... I’m a patient guy.
And again, I need to acquire immortality.
As a side note, I also have the theory that attuning myself to a Higher World may bring more benefits.
Like if I use [World Attunement] in those xianxia cultivation worlds will be better thatn using it in a simple sitcom world.
But that is not something I want to test now... The cooldown of jumping is still 1 year. I can’t go to those dangerous worlds as I am right now.
Slow and steady, I will win the race.
..................
Later, I go back home with my trembling legs.
For real, I think I’m going for that Super Soldier Serum. I want to be natural, but that juice is looking really tempting right now.
I walk through the streets of Seattle unafraid even though this is not a very safe neighborhood.
I went through some shit in the beginning, but now I’m less tense.
Moving to a new universe can be challenging, who could tell?
But is possible to survive with some focus, I didn’t even commit that many crimes. I really went to do honest work... Hot take, I’m less and less empathetic with homeless people. I know a lot of them, and the great majority simply don’t want to work or receive real help.
With two hands you can work for yourself and live cheaply, gaining some dignity.
And I didn’t even cheat with my powers, I was really secretive about it. I didn’t use them to my advantage that much. Not that I’m a good person, I’m simply cautious
In the future, I see myself treating the Geneva Convention like a To-do List. But this is to when I need to do all sorts of things to acquire power, wealth, and everything else.
Now? I only need to live in a frugal way and I’m good.
I have my half-time job. I do my self-study. I hit the gym. I’m better than I was when I lived with my parents.
Obviously, I gave up some things that normal teenagers value.
My money is still decreasing, I have no social life, no family or friends, no school...
But these things are useless for me. I’m an Omniversal Traveller, bitch!
I look at the night sky, completely dark because of the city lights.
I can have everything, but for now, I’m alone.
“...heh~ Fuck it.” I laugh.
So what? This is nothing. In truth, I enjoy being alone.
I’m happy... I’m happy because I know this one fact... This is the hardest part of my life. Everything will get better from now on. Things will get easier and easier.
“The hardest part of everything is always starting...” I remember my grandpa saying it to me before he passed away. Good man…
..........
I finally arrive at my Peter Parker-like apartment, unfortunately, there’s no Ursula Ditkovitch to give me cookies.
Only crackheads... But they hold their drugs tightly, those selfish people. Tsk, not that I would use. I’m not dumb. I thought for some time about being a drug dealer or even a drug lord, but again... Not worth it.
Anyway, when I finally entered my small apartment. “Haah~ Home Sweet Home~” I sigh with a smile.
Here, I’m free. Here I can use my telekinesis!
The keys float from my hand to their rightful spot on the wall. I kick my shoes off my feet, they fly high, but stop just a little before hitting something, and then they obediently float to the corner. The socks accompany them.
It looks like some wizard used a spell on the inanimate objects... But this is my fine control that I painstakingly trained.
My jacket gets off my body and goes hang itself, the TV is turned on, my bag goes to the corner, the doors open to me, the faucets too, the rest of my clothes leave my body...
That’s the result of my training prioritizing control over power. I can type on my laptop from a certain distance now, I can build legos telekinetically and I barely need to move my body to use telekinesis too. I small move of my body is enough to trigger it.
Now about my telekinesis strength... It’s kinda neglected, I admit... Last time I raised and crushed a school bus in a junkyard, so it must be on the 10 tons scale.
Not that much, it should be stronger if I actively trained that, but it’s not like there’s a gym to Espers around here.
And the last thing I want is to attract attention to myself and be forced to fight the armed forces.
“Heh~ This reminds me of MOB Psycho. The message is that even with powers, just continue to live a normal life... I’m not that special.”
After microwaving my pre-prepared dinner, I sit in front of the TV to watch some movies.
Watching and Reading fiction is like my homework here. Obviously, I also study some school subjects, the ones that interest me.
My notebook and a pen float to my side.
“From an outside perspective, I look like a loser...” I comment while lying on the couch stuffing my face with food and wasting my time watching TV. “But I’m on the grind.”
.............
This day is the day.
I finally finished my work shift and gave my goodbyes to my boss, Mr. Razin. Till never, Mr. Razin~
I close the door of the store for the last time... Today I will leave this universe and go to the next.
And you know what this means?
It means that everything I do from now on... will have no consequences~ Huhu~
I turn around to go home to gather my things... When I’m suddenly face to face with a girl.
“Eveline...” I greet in surprise. She is the daughter of the owners of the bakery across the street. More or less my age. She is a redhead, 7/10 and very nice.
“Hector, is already closed?” She gives a look at the door of the store
“Yes, do you need something?”
“No, no. I was just thinking... I was practicing baking some new things... Not good enough to sell, but too much to keep it... Sooo... Do you want to come over to try? Be my lab rat! Haha~” She says nervously “I was staring at the cakes and everything and I was like ‘Oh, Hector’s birthday was some days ago’ and I thought maybe you wanted some... As a late birthday cake... or something like that... As a sorry for not giving you a happy birthday gift... Well, you only told me after your birthday but... Well, Haha. Don’t think much about it.” She says a lot of words in a nervous way.
“...” Wait a minute... I narrow my eyes while staring at her. Nervous fidgeting, eyes darting around... Maybe... Something is happening here... I think she is into me. Or she is only being nice? As a man, I’m incapable of being sure about it
Nah... Impossible. She is only being nice.
“Sorry, I have to go... By the way, I’m moving out.” I say, so that she doesn’t search for me.
“What? Moving out? Where? Now?” She asks in surprise, her eyes widening
“Far... Out of the state...” Out of the universe.
“But... But...” She appears to not know what to say “I... just took the courage to ask you out...” Her voice is barely louder than a mosquito.
“...” Now are my eyes that widen. So she is really into me! Maybe I should trust my gut instinct more.
But... Whattaheck?! What I do now? This never happened to me!! I didn’t train for this! I didn’t study this either! I should have read some shoujo manga too!
Say something smart. Say something smart.
“Eh... you like me?” Good one!
“Ah... er... I... yes, kinda...” She was surprised and then acted all shy as she answered. I have to commend her courage, she really approached me. It must been hard.
Or maybe because I didn’t see her signs... In hindsight, she was always kinda nice, but I was too focused on other things. And like... Outwardly I’m a fucking loser. I never thought someone would get into me.
My silence appears to make matters worse for her because she is fidgeting nervously
“So...” She speaks “So... You want... to... go eat my cake?” She looks at me expectantly
Ignoring the innuendo of her words, I think that maybe it would not be so bad to take a small break. I never had anyone that liked me before, so it’s a new experience... Isn’t experience what I want by traveling through the Omniverse?
I can pause a little my plans- No... No. No! Fucking no!
A break? Now? I just started.
I’m not one of those people that studies for 5 minutes and then stops. Who takes a break after the tutorial?? My lifespan is running out!
I admit that she shook my resolve, it seems my will is not that impressive, but now that I remembered what is important I feel like it was strengthened a little.
“No.” I say, short and cold.
“Eh...” The sudden change of expression. And tone of voice probably took her by surprise.
“No.” I repeat in the same tone of voice.
My will is shaken again seeing her sad expression., seeing how her face falls and she looks on the verge of tears.
Ugh... She doesn’t deserve such a rough tone, she deserves a better explanation.
“Lister Eveline... As much as cliche it sounds, it’s not you, it’s me. You heard me saying that I’m going away before.” I say in a softer tone, trying to calm her down
She can’t deny that I’m not making excuses to reject her.
“I need to go away, so it will never work. Forget about me.” I say
“To where?” She asks
“Very far... I’m all alone in this world, Eveline. But I have a dream and I believe that I have the tools to achieve it.” I explain it ambiguously
“A dream?”
“I... I want to be great. It’s more complicated than that but the gist is that I want to live a great and fulfilling life. I want to travel and do much more.” I sigh and look at her with serious eyes “Stay here would be betraying my dream and myself.”
“...” She falls in deep silence, I think my words reached her.
Is that my first hard decision on this Journey? How many more people will I leave behind as I walk forward? Countless, I bet...
This is just one inconsequential girl in the grand scheme of things, but interacting with her increases her value in my eyes. I had this ‘only named characters matter” mentality till now and I didn’t even notice it.
I didn’t cared about making friends here, always thinking that in the future I would find more interesting people. The cast of the many works of fiction.
Now I know that is about interacting with the person itself... It gives weight to their existence.
And at the same time without interacting, it means the person has no importance to me... Even named characters and protagonists... Yeah, they don’t matter to me. I will remember that…
I feel something unlocking in my psyche. That parasocial relationship that every reader or watcher has with fictional characters is being slowly eroded.
Now I feel that I will not be biased when I meet them, even the ones that I like too much...
Well, I can’t deny that I’m curious and excited about meeting many of them, and maybe I will have a good first impression of them already formed in my mind. But that can’t be helped. I already know them.
Oh, the silence stretched for longer than I expected… It seems I’m a silent guy.
“I’m sorry, Eveline.” I give her a nod and walk past her.
It’s just some teenager crush, but you are the first girl that liked me, Eveline. Because of that, I will remember you forever... And this also taught me a lesson. I will carry my experiences forever in my eternal life.
I need to do only what I don’t regret... Regret... imagine regretting for an infinite amount of time.
I can feel my face morphing into a cold mask. I was feeling a little bad before, for what I planned to do tonight, but I will not hesitate.
It said that at the end of life, you regret more the things that you didn’t than the things you did. Because you never knew what could’ve happened if you acted... Living Forever with the Uncertain.
Now, with this thought, let’s commit my first big crime.
..............................................
I enter my shitty apartment with resolve on my steps.
With a flex of my will, my telekinesis reaches for the things that I already prepared as I remove my clothes.
“First, let’s take a bath.” I comment as I enter the bathroom, my hand stretching to grab something my telekinesis brings me.
I love baths, they clear the mind and the body, it reset my entire being. I can get out of it relaxed or sharp.
I turn on the hair trimmer machine in my hand(a good investment for all males) and without hesitation pass it through my scalp, cutting my hair entirely.
I lived on the streets, vanity was the first thing that left me at that time. I really care little about my appearance.
Now that I’m going to a new world, I decided to go with a buzzcut because is super practical.
BZZZZZZZZZZZZ
I also shave the little stubs of hair on my face, chest, armpits, legs and even crotch.
“I need some self-biokinesis power.” Taking care of your body is inconvenient. I wonder if those super serums helps with those things.
I took a good bath and scrubbed myself to take any remaining hair stuck on my body. Without caring about my nudity, I leave the bath and take a look at my nails. They are short enough to not need to trim it too.
I move to the new clothes that I left prepared. Normal T-shirt, a jacket, cargo pants and boots. The outfit with the most pockets I can wear.
I can only take with me what I can carry so I need to go full tourist.
Everything is either black, grey or white. Who needs color?
After donning my clothes and putting the small things in my pocket, like my phone, wallet, knife, I move to the bags.
There are two backpacks, two duffel bags, and a waist bag.
A pity that I need to leave things behind like my small TV and microwave, it was an investment but I have to let it go and buy it again in the next world.
I put my clothes in one of those bags, just essential. I even put on a big towel that occupies half of the space, even though I can buy it anywhere. But I like this specific towel and “The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy” taught me that you always should have a trusty towel.
On the other backpack, I put my Electronics, my laptop, my books and notebooks. This is the “studies backpack”.
The two duffel bags will go empty(for now), but one have my toolbox. I thought about leaving it here, but this toolbox is very useful.
I throw other things inside too, like my hair trimmer, swiss knife, flashlight, medicine and other miscellaneous.
“Well, time to start.” I say before pulling my hood up and putting on a black face mask, like one that would be used during COVID or by those streamers who want to hide their faces.
I grab everything with my telekinesis and go out through the window.
“Huhu~” Aaaah~ Flying is so good~
I remember the first time I flew, it was very stressful because I needed to put a lot of control over my body to not go spiraling uncontrollably.
But now, even though it was hard to find a quiet place to train, I’m pretty good already.
I go higher and higher till I am out of sight to the people below and move in the direction that I want, my things following closely behind. After 30 minutes, I finally hovered over my target.
A commercial center. All dark and closed, one of the reasons I was the one closing the store tonight and took my time bathing and all that.
I observe my targets, a Jewelry store and an Eletronics shop.
The two are from famous brands, so I don’t feel bad about stealing from them.
Floating, I open my arms to the world, stretching my telekinesis the most I can. It's like tendrils that get thinner the longer it goes... For the first time in a long time, I feel the straining of my Esper's muscle.
And it’s a good sensation~
I feel like a god, but the knowledge of the vastness of the Omniverse keeps me humbled. Taking a deep breath of the cold air of the night I finally attack with my full power.
Bzzt Crash Bam*
I researched a lot and scouted around here for a month. I know exactly where to hit to maximize efficiency. The power lines and power poles that I pull cause an insta blackout, I also don’t neglect the backup generators, and I also destroy cameras and anything that can bring any problem.
The last nail of the coffin is me swinging down my arm while I float in the air, an invisible blast flies and creates a hole in the ground and I throw a lighter on the hole.
Booom Boom Booom
A gas leak generates an instant Explosion.
“...” I can hear the screams of surprise and fright from the people nearby. But even the ones nearby don’t get hurt so whatever.
Looking down on my work, trying to not feel like a god, I try to remember if I forgot anything.
Explosions to distract, the blackout to delay response, and now this whole commercial center is a ripe fruit ready to be plucked.
I don’t care about the consequences of what I’m doing, I do not even care if someone sees me, I’m going away to never come back. So what?
This... This is true freedom! Completely free from consequences!
I could commit the most atrocious acts and simply jump away and continue to live normally.
It’s almost a chilling thought... Let’s be careful to not derail too much on the path, not that I’m afraid of being evil. I just don’t want to become a caricature villain or a nihilistic asshole like Rick Sanchez.
Bam Crack
Without a care, I blast the front of the Electronics store open.
“Come to papa~” I can’t help but smile.
I’m like a child in a candy store. All those things that I wanted to have in the past, but it was denied to me, are within my reach. Aah~ This is so good~ Looting is so good~ My gamer mindset is making an appearance again.
I can’t carry much but it’s okay, I can simply do something like this again in the next world.
I go straight to the expensive stuff, the last generations of laptops, tablets, and smartphones are my main targets. But I also don’t neglect headphones, mouses, and other pieces like CPUs, GPUs, motherboards, a lot of cables, and even some consoles...
I studied tech through this last year. I always wanted to be like those smart tech-savant characters, I’m not a genius, but I can study it anyway.
I filled one of my duffel bags with a lot of equipment and even more than half of the other.
“I think I took enough...” I comment while looking at the bag that is almost bursting. I even took a bunch of products out of the packaging to have more space.
I spare a greedy look at the 60” TV... Too bad.
I can’t be a hoarder, I need to put in my mind that I can acquire those things later anyway. It’s okay to discard them anytime.
“Now the jewelry shop...” I immediately fly away.
Currency can lose value in other universes, but precious gems will be worth good money in most of the places I will go.
Even in a medieval setting, I can exchange a necklace for some money.
BOOM
In this jewelry shop, I was even more merciless. Blasting the protection glasses with waves of my hands, grabbing everything without even taking a second look.
I even put a lot of expensive watches on my arms and covered them with the long sleeves of my hood. Rings and necklaces too...
Pfft! Haha! I accidentally took a look in a mirror nearby. I look exactly like those cartoon characters that stumble upon some treasure and immediately cover themselves with the items. But I hide them under my clothes afterwards.
“And to think those things are worth dozens, maybe even thousands of dollars...” I comment while stuffing my bag. “And this is not a really expensive place...” That is the most ridiculous. “A really expensive Rolex can buy everything I stole tonight.” I sigh.
I can’t help but think that those things that are unattainable to others will be trash for me.
“The world is unfair...” But I’m happy that I’m on top.
I would like to say that my plan was flawless and I executed everything perfectly, that my actions are precise and effective.
But for real? It was a little of a mess...
So many times I used too much strength, I almost cut myself with some glass that I pulled to me with my telekinesis, I stumbled in opening some protective safes too, and ended up ripping the wall...
I almost brought the ceiling down.
Damn it, I’m a noob.
But I finished eventually and I’m ready to lea-
“Freeze! Hands in the air!” A distinctive male voice shouts from behind me.
Okay, I admit... My heart skipped a beat and I jumped a little. The knowledge those words can only be said by someone who is pointing their gun at my back is chilling.
I’m not that good enough to stop bullets, and if I’m too harsh, I can receive a fucking bullet in my head! And even if it was not fatal, how the fuck I will go to the hospital? Would I accept being arrested to receive medical care? No, I would lose my loot...
Jump to another universe and receive medical care there? Then how would I explain myself? An unregistered teen received a bullet...
It would be a horrible start to the new year.
I can make my jump now, but I left my things on the roof of a nearby building... Should I give up one that and move to another universe? It will be a loss, but better than being shot.
But let’s not give up that earlier... There’s a way.
“Don’t shoot! I surrender!” I lie and raise my hands in the air.
The advantage is still mine...
“Hands in the air!!!” He shouts. Dude, my hands are already in the air...
But I don’t argue and raise my hands even more, till they are outstretched to the max.
“Turn Around! Slowly!”
And I obey, at the same time that I send my telekinesis to feel the space on the direction of police officer.
My eyes met his... He is alone. That’s rare…
“I surrender... I’m not gonna resist.” I try to act fearful, but I’m surprisingly calm on my heart. I want to give him the impression that he already won.
“Do you have any weapons?” He asks while eyeing me carefully
“No.” Only my powers...
“On the ground, hands behind your head!”
I obey again... He approaches while pointing the gun at me.
“Ugh...” The bastard put his knee on my back, it took the air of my lungs.
He started saying some shit while grabbing my hands to cuff me, but I didn’t listen... I’m a little angry and I noticed... He is using his two hands...
Bam Pow
He was sent flying to the ceiling and then fell to the ground like a sack of potatoes.
I slowly float up while keeping him down with my powers.
“Thank you for the gun...” I say while extending my hand at him and hitting him in the wall two more times.
“Son of a bitch... Do you need to hit me after I surrendered?!” I throw him at the wall again “Do you like that when you are the one in the receiving end?”
And again. “I know that I’m in the wrong, but fuck you and your power trip.”
Again in the wall.
Okay, I admit that I’m in the wrong, but fuck it. He is my “enemy” so he is the one in the wrong. I’m not gonna kill him and I don’t care if my existence will be known from now on.
Time to go to the next universe.
“Good bye, sir.” I salute him before taking his firearm, a 9mm, and some ammo.
And here I was thinking of stealing a gun store... This will be enough. It’s not like I know how to use a shotgun or a rifle anyway.
Without delaying more, I slip away from the store and move to the nearby building’s roof.
The police officer was alone, shouldn’t he have a partner?
Whatever. I was lucky…
What matters is that I need to review my performance and analyze my mistakes. First thing, there’s probably an alarm with a battery somewhere in the jewelry store. Second, I was too flashy in blasting the entrance... Anyone that walks down there would see that the store was invaded. That’s how he found me that easily.
There are other mistakes but this is the main ones.
I should’ve opened a hole in the roof. I wanted to spare time by blasting the front that is made of glass but ended up creating trouble. I will do better next time.
Now... I grab everything, it’s heavy so I cheat with my telekinesis, and prepare to move to the next world. I already selected the next one, very normal and similar to this one, I still don’t want to do anything crazy. I do not want to give up on the commodity of the modern world.
I haven’t even trained any survival skills yet.
“Let’s go!” I mentally urge my power and disappear from this universe. Sorry for the trouble~

Hector deveria ter pego uma simples pedra com seu aperto telesinetco (fodase como se escreve) para saber se ao fazer um "salto" ela vai com ele, assim em uma situação de risco ele poderia so alcançar seus objetos com sua telecinese e saltar. Talves até levando algo poderoso ou de muito valor.
