Chapter 1 - Death and rebirth

Once upon a time, there was a boy named Alex Watson, he is one of the topper in the class as well as a prodigy in sports, making many adore and envy him, he is one of the most popular student in the class. He is also from a wealthy background, and since, he is a prodigy, he parents gave him everything he wanted. However, he has a hidden secret, he is an otaku, and was interested in comics and novels related to alchemist and viking warriors, he is also a fan of isekai troupe and wished that he also get isekai'd somehow, as he despite having everything, was bored of his daily life. However, one day, his wish suddenly came true, while walking towards his school, he noticed a kid is about to hit by a truck, Alex stepped in to protect the kid, he succeeded but he was severely injured after getting hit by truck.

"(Ha....., so this is the end, I hope that the child is okay)"

Alex thought that his life is ended, but he had no idea, that the truck-kun has just gave him ticket for isekai. He was immediately reborn in another world as a infant child of a warrior couple. His parents were initially concerned that Alex, didn't cry despite it being normal for kids to cry after they are born, nevertheless they were happy to finally have a son, as the woman had given birth to two children before him, both of them died soon, Alex Watson now Alex Bloodfang was born healthy. One day, in his cradle, Alex wondered.

"(Well that was unexpected, I didn't expected myself to be isekai'd, it seem those comics and novels were telling the truth)"

Alex was happy with his wish of being isekai'd to the world of magic is fulfilled, but he was also scared, as this a harsh world, where only strong prevails, and unlike in those comics and novels, where protagonist are born with cheat skill, Alex wasn't born with any, making his life bit more difficult.

"(*sigh* I need to work hard to make myself strong as I have no cheat skilla)"

Then alex ponders about what he know about this current world.

"(The tribe I have born into is called Bloodstone clan led by Bloodstone family and If I am not wrong the tribe I born into is similar to the viking warriors from my past life, except there is magic in this world, in the tribe those with magical potential become shamans, while the rest those without it absorbs the mana from nature through meditation and become magic warriors. Unfortunately, the magicians are born with their powers that can be passed on to next generations, so not everyone has magic, while magic warriors are rare due to everyone has affinity towards outside mana, so there aren't many magic warrior either, thus, most of the warriors in the tribe are regular warrior who make up for there lack of supernatural powers by going through extensive training, let's hope I would have magic potential or affinity towards outside mana, although I wouldn't mind, as I was a great sportsman in my past life, if I am not either of those two, I will simply focus on extensive training, otherwise, I won't be able to protect my family and the clan)"

Thus, Alex set a clear goal for himself, to become strong enough to protect the clan. 11 years later he was tested for magic potential, it was found there is no mana in his body, so, he can't form a mana core to become a magicians, meaning the path of becoming a mage is closed for him. Later, he was instead told to meditate to absorb the mana in nature into his vessels in his body. Fortunately, this suceeded, meaning that Alex had an affinty towards outside mana, so, becoming a magic warrior is suitable for him. Alex then went on extensive training martial arts, armed combat and even the proper use of many. He also learned that what differs a magician and magic warriors is that, powered by a mana core, a magician can directly bend the nature around them and sometimes even break the laws of nature, mana core also improve a magician's intelligence, memory, charisma and willpower, on other hand magic warrior use mana in their mana vessels to increase their strength, agility, willpower, endurance and constitution as well as improve their perception, perhaps this could explain, why shamans are more respected and protected than magic warriors. But what caught Alex's attention was the alchemy, while alchemy do exist in this world, it is related to making alcohol, this disappointed Alex, as nobody is using alchemy create something better, as in both comics and novels, he read in his past life, alchemy can be used to making potions that could heal, restore stamina, cure illness, detoxify poisons and so on.

"(I can't believe they used alchemy to brew some alcoholic drinks like beer and mead and not some useful potion, is it because there no such concept of alchemy used to make potion in this world, or they don't know the other uses of alchemy? *sigh* Looks like I have to do something about this, but first, let's see the concept of alchemy I know works in this world or not, then, I will decide what to do)"

After making his decision, Alex decided to check whether the concept of alchemy he knew work here or not, he decided to start learning craftsmanship and blacksmithing, to create the necessary tools he might need for alchemy while at the same time doing his regular trainging. After 3 months later Alex become strong enough to protect his family and the clan, but more importantly he managed to craft the necessary equipments for battle and tools for alchemy.

"(Finally I have all the tools I needed, now I can start alchemical work)"

Having got all he need, he have finally start his work.
