Reincarnated as an Energy with a System

Ning found himself a hotel room, which he paid for with some silver coins he asked the system for. Once in the room, he took a bath and then made his way back outside into the city, to find a library.

He found a library that one had to pay to enter, but it was only a single bronze coin, so he went in easily.

Inside, he started searching around the library for books on different historical events and well-known figures, who would have influenced the world a lot.

One of those had to be Zurinus.

He went through old books, biographies, documented events, and newspapers. Anything he could find, he read.

It took him multiple days to do so, but he managed to go through it all. In the end, he landed on 3 different important figures of the current generation, who could be the people that were Zurinus.

The Holy Church of Zurnius was situated in the massive island nation of Airan, surrounded by many other countries and islands. They were the center ground for spreading the faith of Zurinus all around the world, including past the Great Reef.

The Holy church had a massive influence on the geopolitical status of the world, influencing countries and masses to their will as their will was the will of the god.

Ning didn't know for certain if they were really in contact with Zurinus or not, but if they were, he could get a hint through them.

In fact, Ning even suspected that if they were to somehow be involved with Zurinus, then their Pope, a man named Lucius Garnerwalt the Third was certainly to be Zurinus in disguise.

From the Kingdom of Oriman to Airan, Ning would have to go west through the country of Warfort, then take a ship to the west, where he would arrive in the Cogonian archipelago. Beyond that was the country of Airan.

The next influential figure was a man who made headlines every year.

Zarius Bracksfort was a made said to be the inventor of everything modern. He was the father of the Industrial Revolution, as he had not only discovered the Steam engine, but was also responsible for discovering electricity, radio waves, and a whole heap of other discoveries that set him apart from any other person in the world. The man didn't stay in one place, so finding him would be a little difficult, but not so much. It had been a while since he had appeared in the newspapers, so it was only a matter of time before he made another discovery.

Ning was certain this man wasn't making any discoveries on his own. He had to be Zurinus, disguising himself as a human to further his reach throughout the world. Even if he was not, Ning still wanted to meet him to see what was going on there.

Finally, the last person that was possibly Zurinus was the richest and most powerful man in the entire world. The owner of Eastwind Trading Company, the biggest naval company in the world, Naman Reyworld. He was a 52-year-old man who is said to be richer than half the world combined.

No one knew how he amassed his massive wealth, but there were theories.

It was said that the man when young had gone treasure hunting and had ended up finding a very powerful Zurin treasure, which had helped him earn his money. No one knew if the information was true or not, but he was the richest man in the world, said to be worth thousands and thousands of bricks of gold.

Any of the three could be Zurinus, and none could be at the same time.

Ning stretched from the seat and stood up. "Time to go search them for real then," he thought.

Ning needed to go find Tim so he could have someone on this journey. Going around places alone on the planet wasn't very fun. 'Where did he stay again?' Ning tried to remember, but could only remember that it was somewhere in the residential district. There was no actual address there.

So, he went to the university to try and find the young man.

Arriving at the university, Ning searched for Tim around the place. Unable to find him or his father, who he said was a teacher there, Ning went to the faculty to see if they could call him over.

"Hi, I'm searching for a student named Timothy Orstar. Would you know where I might find him?" Ning asked.

The faculty member quickly searched the student's name and came up with some information.

"Timothy Orstar isn't here, sir," the man said. "He's on a 5 months suspension from university."

"Suspension?" Ning asked with a surprised look. "For what?" "For stealing a Zurin treasure from the University," the man said.

"Stealing? What did he steal?" Ning asked.

"I cannot tell you," the man answered.

"Then uhh… can you tell me where I can find him? Where does he live?" Ning asked.

"That is private information I cannot reveal," the man said. "Anything else I can help you with."

"Yes," Ning answered quickly. "I'm looking for Timothy's father actually. I heard he's been healed, but I'm not sure if he's returned to the University or not."

"Oh, Professor Adrian hasn't returned yet, but he has been healed," the man said. "If you have some well wishes, please write it down, we will send it later tonight. If you are looking to meet him, then I'm afraid I can't give you his address."

The man quickly checked some files. "He doesn't have a phone, so I can't help you there, I'm afraid."

"Oh, that's alright," Ning said. "Thank you for your time."

The man nodded and let Ning go.

Ning walked away. It had been an easy task to see the address on the paper once the man had pulled up Adrian's file. Ning now knew exactly where he had to go.

He walked out of the University and made his way toward the residential district to meet up with Tim again.
