Joan greeted his mother who was very happy to see him. Running towards him and hugged him tightly with her wide arms.

"Oh, my son! You are back! Thank God you are alive! Are you hurt? Why do you have a bandage? Don't tell me you are attacked by a monster?" She asked him.

In Joan's memories, she was Anna Emsworth. Wife of his father John Emsworth. His name was combined with their names John and Anna.

A witty name creation they have in their mind. Joan smiled as he felt his past body's emotions swell. It was like in the past Joan himself has missed them.

The old man felt his love for his mother and thus embraced her upon the request of the emotions of the past owner. It was like their soul was combined in the process of his [Soul transmigration]..

"I will take care of you, mom. I promised to come back alive right?" Joan said to him while he remembered that he promised to tell before his leave. The promise that the past Joan didn't fulfil on his life.

"Okay son, let me help you with dismantling that boar. I will cook you a delicious meal. What do you want for dinner? Grilled or soup?" Anna asked him while they entered their house.

"Grilled," he replied.

Upon entering the wooden door, he saw a candle on the table of their home. The dirty kitchen was just beside their dining table and to their right was their rooms.

Joan then hanged the boar and they dismantle it. Using a sharp butcher knife, they removed its hairy pelt and chopped it into quarters.

They soon grilled a quarter of the boar and dried the rest.

His father arrived from their farm with his farm carriage pulled by their horse.

He entered their home and was in a happy mood. Whistling and dancing while he entered the door.

"Looks like we will be having a feast tonight! With the looks of the grains, we will pay the rest of our dept from last year! And we still have something to spare! Hahaha!" John said to them.

"Joan my boy! Hug your daddy!" He said then opened his arms wide.

"Dad!" Joan shouted and hugged him.

"We will be having grilled pork tonight!" Joan said to him.

"Oh, good boy! I am so proud of you! Do you want a new bow? Perhaps a better one?" He said to him, patting his head.

"No, my current one would suffice. At least save the money in the future," Joan said to him then smiled.

"Good boy!" He chuckled.

They grilled the pork with the remaining salt they have and served it on their wooden plates. Joan's share was the ribs of the pork and he ate with pleased eyes as they saw him.

It was very satisfying when he ate it with a hungry stomach. He drank water and they talked with each other.

"Joan my son, do you want to go to school? They are recruiting this opening," John said to him.

"Can you sustain that John? After all our struggle just to fill our stomach, you ask him to go to school?" said Anna worriedly.

"I will find a way for that, it is my problem. Thanks for telling me. I didn't know that they are offering one," Joan said to the two of them.

"What I want to tell is they will have a scholarship to those who performed well in the entrance exam. Especially to the poor. I know our son can become a Ranger with him using a bow while hunting. He can be all he wanted to be if he will grab that once-in-a-lifetime opportunity," said John.

"Oh! Does this world have a Ranger job class? What else?" Joan asked curiously.

"From what I can remember, the Academy has Rogue, Ranger, Fighter, Ronin, Paladin, Holy Knight, Chaos Knight, and, Mage. There also have tribes that teach Lycan, Druid, and, Necromancer class. If you happen to pass the entrance exam, they will let you choose your path. And in several cases, there are Job class directors that will pick you themselves! You will be a great person someday son. We will not let you suffer like us and become a farmer for the rest of your life," John said to him while patting his shoulder.

Joan was in his thoughts, staring in the blank space and then coughed. The world of Almaria has the same Job class as this world. Enough for him to smile wryly and laugh.

"Hey son, are you okay?" John said to him, shaking him up.

"Oh, I'm okay. I only remembered something to do later on," Joan said to them.

Anna felt worried about his actions. She then calmed down when she realized that everything was okay. They continued eating and they were happy at that time. He was thinking that in the past Joan has such a kind family and a cosy home to be at.

They were happily talking about his hunt and he told them that he hunted a man-eating tiger. They were shocked and John dropped his bone that he was holding.

"What? Are you lying, Joan? You should never lie in front of me!" John said to him.

'Ops, is that a bad joke for them?'

"Nah, nevermind. We should resume our talks. How is your farming dad?" Joan said to him to change the mood.

"Well, we will harvest plentiful this time and pay our debt. We will harvest tomorrow morning," John said then took a bite of the meat.

"I will teach the other kids to hunt tomorrow morning. They will become good boys as I knew they have the same predicament as us. They even called me master," Joan said to them.

"Wow! So the bullies shed new leaves now? You're great son! May they become like you! We're always proud of you and support you," Anna said to him then caressed his back.

Joan can only sigh as he was believed this time around. He continued biting the meat and continued their talks.

The night grew deeper and Joan went to his bed after cleaning the table and washing the wooden plates.

His father and mother went to their rooms and he carried the candle to his own. Putting the candle on the table at bedside, he climbed his bed. He went to his lotus position and experimented if the cultivation was still applicable to this world.

He sensed the mana in the environment and absorbed it. To his surprise, he was cultivating without problems. Making him smile wryly and giggled on the process.

'This changes everything. I can cultivate without any difficulty and can become stronger. I need to break through as soon as possible or all the job class that I learned will go to waste. If I can access them sooner, the better.' He said to himself.

He was cultivating all night and managed to break through to the First Stage–Earth Realm. He exhaled a great amount of air and was smiling. Thinking of things for his future and plans to make.
