Chapter 1:

Another World

Summit Of Stars: Journey To The Top Of Another World


Why do I feel the warmth? I'm sure a moment ago, I was at the top of Mount Everest, and a storm hit me. Am I experiencing hypothermia? It's really warm, I feel like I can feel something again... but what is this? I don't understand....” The warm and cool summer breeze enters the house through the bedroom window, which is opened very wide.

The aroma of grass, leaves, and flowers also entered the room. A sound of pain came from a woman who was trying her best to fight for a small life and also her own life. Her husband was beside her, er encouraging her and holding her hand tightly. At the same time, another woman helped her to take care of the small life of her body. After struggling for hours, the tiny creature finally managed to get out of the woman's body. The woman looked tired but was very happy to see her baby for the first time. She and her husband shed countless tears of joy.

Wolphira Ilizeiros. That's the name of the child who has just gave birth. The husband and wife gave the tiny little creature a name. This name was the name they had prepared beforehand. A woman's name combined with one of her parents' surnames. The baby was seen sleeping very soundly in the arms of his parents.

Where am I? Who are this woman and man? They look so young compared to me. Are they lovers? most importantly... what happened to me??” Satoru, without realizing it, has started living his second life in another world.

A small, small face with a little dark brown hair and bright blue eyes like the sky in summer. Satoru has been reborn as Wolphira Ilizeiros, a baby girl born to a husband and wife who live in a remote village very far from the hustle and bustle of the city.

The atmosphere of the vast grassland, accompanied by the warm wind that blows, makes the atmosphere more comfortable and cool when summer is underway. Farm animals run here and there, and sheep freely eat the grass around them. Some villagers carry out their daily activities by gardening and taking care of the livestock they have. 1 year has passed since Wolphira Ilizeiros lived her second life. Even though she is only one year old, she can walk on his own but still seems to have difficulty walking quickly. What she can do well is crawl quickly.

“Wolly! Where are you?” Margaret Ilizeiros, the mother of Wolphira Ilizeiros, calls her child by a short nickname to make pronunciation easier. Margaret wears clothes like most people who live in remote villages. Dressed like a farmer gardening, Margaret looked for Wolly in all corners of the house. Margaret couldn't find Wolly anywhere until finally, she tried looking for Wolly in the plantation area.

Wolly, with her very tiny body tried to climb the mound of earth in the plantation area. She had been waiting for this moment for a year after her birth in this world. She climbed the mound of earth by crawling and struggling. Occasionally she was seen managing to stand but because of her very young age, she had a little difficulty and could not hold her position on the mound of earth.

"With my current body, it seems impossible. Okay... it seems like I have to be patient. It's been a year since I lived my second life here, but I haven't been able to get much information. Moreover, my desire to climb is burning after seeing the natural scenery around here for the first time.” A small village surrounded by many mountains and beautiful nature makes Wolly excited to live her second life, but she has to be patient because currently, her body is that of a one-year-old child.

After looking for Wolly here and there, Margaret finally found Wolly, who was in the plantation area. Margaret, who saw Wolly trying to climb the mound, immediately rushed over and carried Wolly's entire body. Wolly felt disappointed because she managed to reach the surface of the mound in a little while. With her gloomy face, she just surrendered when her body was carried by Margaret.

Tomatoes, eggplants, and peppers grow well in family plantations of husband, wife, and children. The vegetables and plants in this world are very similar to those in Wolly's previous world, but their shape is slightly different, and even in terms of size, they look very different. You can find tomatoes the size of watermelons here. When she first saw it, Wolly was very surprised and excited because there was the possibility that there was still something out there that she had never seen in her previous life.

"woooolllllyyyyyy...." a man with a fairly sturdy body ran towards Wolly and Margaret. With his clothes looking very dirty and shoes made of leather, he ran cheerfully as if his tiredness had disappeared. He is the father of Wolly and the husband of Margaret.

"No. That's enough. You can't touch him. Look at your dirty and smelly body. At least take a shower first before hugging us." Margaret quickly avoided her husband's embrace.

“Come on, honey… let me hug you right now.” Edward, Margaret's husband and Wolly's father, looks gloomy after Margaret rejects him.

“Go shower first and I will cook your favorite food” With a gentle smile, Margaret answered, Edward looked cheerful again after hearing Margaret's words. he looked very happy and rushed to shower.

Seeing his father's childlike behavior made Wolly feel uncomfortable. Moreover, she had never experienced the romance of a couple in his previous life.

The sun began to set. Farm animals began to return to their pens. Margaret and Wolly walked to ensure all the livestock had returned to their respective places. Some sheep began to enter the pen area. The sheep has 3 horns on its head. Unlike sheep in general, in this world, sheep have additional horns on the front of their heads. They use these horns to protect themselves from all dangers that threaten them. Sometimes sheep can also attack humans if they feel threatened.

The autumn breeze began to be felt spreading throughout the room’s corner. The room contained various kinds of books arranged neatly on the shelves. Some books were lying down. With the quiet atmosphere, Woody, at the age of one year, for the first time read a book. Although she could not read the letters in the book, she was very focused on one picture of a map of a region in the book. It said "Map of the northern mountainous region of the southern continent" on the page of the book that had a picture of the map of the region.

"This is what I was looking for." Wolly stared at the map image very focused, with eyes shining with joy.

Since her arrival into this world, Wolly has finally determined the first goal she will achieve in h34 second life. It is written on the map that there is one very high mountain in that mountainous area. The Southern Mountain is written very clearly on the map. With her tiny hands, Wolly touched the map and moved his index finger towards the picture and writing of the southern mountain.

Edward, who was walking through the room, accidentally saw Wolly reading a book. He looked surprised because his one-year-old daughter was interested in books. Edward slowly left where he was standing and rushed to look for Margaret. He felt that Margaret should know about Wolly's activities.

“Margaret! Margaret!” Edward shouted, looking for Margaret outside the house.

“What happened? Why do you look so excited?” Margaret answered Edward's call full of questions.

“Come on, follow me” With great confusion, Margaret complied with Edward's invitation. Edward led Margaret by the hand to the room where Wolly was.

Seeing Wolly, who was focused on his book, Margaret and Edward felt happy because they saw their daughter being interested in something for the first time. They approached Wolly, who was engrossed in looking at the map picture in the book. Feeling someone approaching, Wolly looked at Margaret and Edward with a look on his face like someone who had been caught stealing. Wolly innocently tried to speak and pointed to the map picture in the book.

I won't blame it if you two don't understand what I'm talking about. It's natural that at this age I still can't speak fluently. It seems it would be strange if I had already spoken so fluently. I don't even understand the writing in this book.” Wolly muttered in her mind after seeing his parents confused by his words.

"What are you looking at?" Edward carried Wolly happily, but Wolly seemed to refuse, and her hands wanted to reach the book he was reading.

This guy... always ruining my joy...” Wolly said in her mind with a look that looked annoyed.

Ah, you're looking at the map, right? Are you interested in this map image? This is the area on ​​the map where we live. When you get older, you can see many more maps out there.” In a very soft tone, Margaret spoke to Wolly, who seemed to like maps, but actually, it wasn't like that

It seems like he thinks I like maps... and he just said that where we live is in the area on the map? Looks like I'm very lucky.”In his mind, Wolly felt very lucky because he lived in the mountainous area shown on the map. In her baby language, he also tried to straighten out what he wanted. “Oooun-tains.” A very messy sentence came out of Wolly's mouth.

“ Mountains?” Margaret and Edward looked very confused, but Margaret quickly caught the words Wolly said.

Hearing Margaret, who seemed to understand, Wolly agreed to what Margaret said. The baby's chuckle that came from their daughter made the husband and wife a little surprised to find out what their daughter liked.

Margaret and Edward stared at each other as if they were planning something while Wolly looked confused seeing their behavior. In her mind, she felt whether she had made a mistake by mentioning the mountain. That was the only thing Wolly could not think of.

After a few moments, Margaret and Edward were seen changing their clothes with clothes that were not too thick but the clothes did not look like the clothes they usually wear when doing activities outside the house. From the top, Margaret was wearing a long-sleeved shirt and long pants with some fabrics that looked very elegant.

While Edward was wearing a long-sleeved shirt with a furry jacket that was not too thick, long pants that looked comfortable, and leather shoes that were close to his knees, he even carried a backpack that looked big without feeling burdened at all, and a sword. Margaret quickly replaced Wolly's clothes with clothes that were thick enough and comfortable for a one-year-old child. Then Margaret tied the cloth around Wolly's body and hooked Wolly's body behind Margaret's body like when she was carrying a vegetable basket.

The cool air blowing from the north made the surrounding environment feel fresher. Plants and animals lived comfortably all day long. Wolly, Margaret, and Edward walked away from their house towards the north. They walked leisurely through the yards, plantations, and meadows in their neighborhood. They passed through the dirt path without any obstacles because the rainy season had not yet arrived. If it were the rainy season, the road would be difficult to pass.

Hills surrounded the entire area of ​​their house. Only their house was in that area. Without neighbors, there was only the peace of a small family. They continued to follow the path that Edward had made, which seemed to be an access road to travel. Sometimes, some merchants passed by their house and offered their wares.

After walking for a while, they started to enter the forest area. For the first time, Wolly entered the forest area. His face looked excited to see an area that was impossible for him to visit at this time. With his mind bombarded with many questions, Wolly tried to enjoy this journey with his parents. A voice was heard behind the bushes in front, and they slowed down their steps. Edward started to take a position to prepare to fight in front. At the same time, Margaret was in a defensive position behind. They stopped for a moment to see what was behind the bushes.

Something behind the bush slowly came into view. Two very large curved horns were visible at this time. The four-legged animal that was very similar to a mountain goat with a very large size was watching the three of them.

Edward calmly said "Don't move, that's a Giant Ibex. They will attack if they feel threatened" Margaret obeyed Edward's words, while Wolly's eyes focused on observing all parts of the animal's body.

Edward lowered his guard when the ibex left them. The ibex ran away into the forest. At the same time, the three of them began to continue their journey while enjoying the beauty of the forest. Entering the forest, the journey becomes increasingly difficult because no path exists. Wolly enjoyed the trip so much that she forgot his previous confusion. Now she tries to enjoy everything around her.

The journey continues uphill through forests that are still untouched by humans. They arrived at a very wide meadow. The wind wasn't blowing too hard but the air was very cool. In front of them, they saw a small hill where there was a tree on top of the hill. The three of them continued walking enjoying all the aromas in the meadow. Various kinds of flowers can also be seen in the meadow. They danced with the grass happily.

When they were about to reach the hill, suddenly they were surrounded by a group of wolves who looked hungry. The wolf was unlike any wolf Wolly had ever seen in his previous life. They use their thick, blackish-gray fur and two sharp-looking horns for defense and also to help attack. Their size is 3 times the size of the wolves that Wolly has known so far. Wolly looked very scared while his parents looked very calm, being surrounded by the wolf group.

This is very dangerous, I didn't expect their size here to be so big. Hey, you two, get out of here!” In her mind, Wolly shouted to her parents in worry. But her screams could not be conveyed because of the current condition of his body. His screams turned into the cries of a one-year-old child.

“Don't worry Wolly, leave this to Mom and Dad” Margaret calmed Wolly with her very soft and confident voice. She and Edward took a position ready to fight.

One of the wolves began to attack. Edward very quickly slashed the wolf's body in two. Seeing this made Wolly, who had been crying, suddenly become silent. Wolly felt that very icy air enveloped them. Several sharp-shaped pieces of ice were seen floating in the sky and shot so fast that they penetrated the bodies of several groups of wolves. The surviving wolves fled quickly and were no longer visible in sight. Seeing all these events quickly made Wolly very surprised.

“what just happened?? Is it magic? My mother can do magic? And why can my father attack so quickly? I don't understand. Looks like I still have a lot to learn about this world.” Many questions arose in his mind that were very difficult for Wolly to understand. he realized that in this second life, he lived in a very different world.

Margaret smiled very sweetly at Wolly who had looked very worried. The three of them continued walking towards the small hill. After they reached the top of the hill, Margaret began to lower Wolly from her back and Edward immediately lay down under a tree. The wind blows very coolly from the north, making the air colder. With his thick clothes on, Wolly looked at the surrounding scenery.

From the south side of the hill, there was a very clear view of the grasslands and forests they had just passed. Far behind the forest, you can see a house surrounded by a very large plantation. It is the house where they live. Seeing all these sights made Wolly feel that something was stirring in his heart. A feeling he missed. But that's not the only thing that makes Wolly feel that way. She turned around and saw the view of the northern hills. The wind was blowing hard, and Wolly was staring very focused. A mountain whose top was covered in white snow made Wolly's feelings even more pounding. The desire he had suppressed for a long time was finally visible before his eyes.

“It seems she likes mountains. There's no denying that she is your son” With a small laugh, Margaret said to Edward while looking at Wolly who was constantly looking at the mountains to the north.

“Of course, she is our daughter,” Edward responded to Margaret's words with a happy laugh.

“do you want to go there? I promise to take you there on the condition that you practice a lot to increase your endurance. Don't worry, I will help you. Because you are my cutest daughter in this world” Edward was beside Wolly who had been looking at the mountain for a long time. Hearing Edward's words made Wolly feel happy and excited. But he also felt uncomfortable because Edward started carrying and kissing Wolly on the cheek many times.

Wait for me. I will reach you.” Wolly once again has a goal that he must achieve soon. His desire was very strong and burning. For a one-year-old child, it is not normal, but her soul is someone who is more than 30 years old. That day, Wolly convinced her mind and mentality to reach further than in her previous life.

One year has passed. In the cool mornings, Wolly is seen holding a wooden sword said to be very small for an adult. For a year, Wolly has believed in practicing so she can achieve her goal, but she didn't expect that she would be practicing swordsmanship with his father. Previously, Margaret rejected the idea because Wolly was a woman, but after finding out that Wolly did not have any magical abilities like her father, Margaret agreed. Margaret is well aware that Wolly must be able to protect herself. If you can't use magic, physical strength is the last resort. So do many people in this world. Many of them can use magic. It is said that everyone has their talents. But not everyone can maximize this talent. Some of them can't use magic. But in Wolly's case, it's different. She didn't have any magical energy like her father at all.

At first, Wolly questioned this in her mind. How could it not be, magic is a very cool thing for someone who has lived in a world where there is no magic at all. Wolly looked disappointed after finding out about this, so sometimes she blamed her father. But there is no need to think about that problem anymore because now Wolly knows that she has to focus on developing her physique so that she can quickly achieve her goals.

“Good job. I didn't expect to have such a talented daughter.” Edward praised his daughter with a happy laugh.

After practicing swordsmanship with her father, Wolly began to carry out a training pattern that she created herself without her parents' knowledge. She claimed to be playing in the meadow with the sheep. But in reality, she trained her body extra. She did all kinds of workouts that her body could do at the moment, such as push-ups, sit-ups, squats, and even lifting weights. The weights she lifted were not heavy for an adult. She put soil and some stones in a sack and carried the sack on his back while walking around the meadow. She did this every day for about two hours. Because she was only two years old, it would worry her parents if she played for too long.

Sometimes, every morning, Wolly also saw her parents practicing together. The fight between magic users and sword users amazed Wolly because she had never seen it before. Margaret launched some ice magic, but Edward easily deflected it all. Attacks from underground attacked Edward. Not only ice, but Margaret was also seen to be able to use earth magic. It crossed her mind, Wolly wondered whether everyone could use a lot of magic or not. It was just a fleeting thought because it was not too important for her, who could not use magic at all. Edward easily won the fight by avoiding all of Margaret's attacks and reducing the attack distance so that Margaret was cornered. They both laughed together after practicing.

Wooollyyyyy it's time for us to practice.” With a happy running movement that looks weird to Wolly, Edward invites Wolly to practice swordsmanship.

This guy is so annoying. But I admit that he is very strong” Wolly accepts an invitation from his father to practice swordsmanship together.

During this year, Wolly only learned the basics of swordsmanship, such as holding the sword well, taking a good stance, slashing well, and defending well with the sword. Wolly feels very bored, but she understands that it all requires a process. Her previous life made her understand what a process meant. Otherwise, she would not have become a climber in her previous life.

A year has passed. Three-year-old Wolly is still focused on practicing all day long. Behind her small body is a hidden strength that other children his age do not have.

After two years of learning the basics of swordsmanship, Wolly is now moving on to the next stage. Edward is proud of his daughter's progress. He feels that now is enough to learn the basics of swordsmanship. But he always reminds Wolly to continue practicing the basics of swordsmanship every day. Because the basics are a very strong foundation, knowing that she will learn new techniques makes her feel relieved of boredom and excited at the same time.

“You will use this sword. This is the sword that I have always used for a long time. I hope this sword can help you in the future. But right now, you still have to use the wooden version of the sword.” Edward casually gave his daughter a Zweihander sword many times longer than Wolly's. Seeing this, Wolly is speechless and accepts the sword given to her by her father.

At first, Wolly didn't like the Zweihander sword. But it turned out that the sword was easier for her to use.

Edward began to teach sword techniques using the Zweihander sword. Starting from attacking techniques to defending using the sword. The core of using the Zweihander sword is physical strength and agility.

The more agile you are, the more difficult it will be for your opponent. The sword can easily reach opponents from a distance of about two meters because of its length. Its weakness is when fighting long-range magic users. This forces the Zweihander sword user to defend fully without being able to launch an attack.

The Zweihander sword is a sword that is very difficult to use. It is rare for someone to have the desire to use the sword. But because she was forced to, Wolly had no choice but to choose the sword as part of herself from an early age.

In two months, the three of us will go to the top of the northern mountain. So prepare yourself from now on.” Edward, with a serious-looking face, said to Wolly and Margaret.

Wolly didn't expect Edward to look serious. Hearing that made her heart beat faster because she felt impatient. From that moment on, Wolly increased her training portion. She ran for an hour non-stop every day around her house.

Two months have passed. The time came for Wolly and her parents to travel to the top of the northern mountain. All types of equipment that will be brought have been prepared by Edward and Margaret. Because he was still small, Wolly only carried a sword. Edward and Margaret will carry all the things. Especially Edward will carry heavier items.

All the equipment they had prepared to start the journey. Cooking equipment, light tools such as knives and ropes, and most importantly, a tent for them to rest. A simple tent that was enough for two adults and one small child. After seeing all the equipment prepared by her parents, Wolly thought that their journey would take several days, considering the equipment they would bring.

At the beginning of their journey, the three of them did not wear thick clothes. However, they had brought clothes and some thick clothes to wear when they arrived at a higher place. With a happy atmosphere, they began their journey to the southern mountain. After waiting for so long, Wolly finally began her journey to realize one of her goals in her second life.
