《Re:Xianxia》 Prologue I am in a blank space with other people too, they are my classmates and teacher, recounting what happened seems to be the right thing to do, now what happen that lead us here in the first place? My name is Aiden Byrd I am a high school exchange student in Japan. I was going to prepare for school when......well actually not, what I was doing was playing a game in my cell phone called Martial Era, I am addicted to that game, not because I liked the game that I do, but is more that my strong headed attitude made me impossible to quit playing still after my fun ended some time ago. Since some time ago I strive to max the level of my character and now I can enjoy and kick the ass of all the people who do the same with me in the game, I was lucky and finally the last item to have my last power-up, THE FUCKING LAST POWER UP!. When I get the power up, I could feel tears of joy flowing down my face, finally the end, I was right, the last one power-up was incredible, the stats are insane, and I am the first player to max out this type character since the beginning of the game, and with that cheat that I give to my character I now could be say the most powerful player. Going back to the topic, while class was close to starting and the students were chatting, and I was going to break havoc in the pvp arena, when a blinding light suddenly hit us, the next thing I know is that right now we are in a blank void in the middle of nowhere. "You guys, now you are heroes and go to battle the demon king so the world will have peace!" Then a majestic voice of a woman say the purpose of us being here, I actually not care about that I only want to enjoy the fruits of my efforts.....is not her, where is my cell phone?, I can¡¯t see it......calm down, calm down Aiden, maybe I drop it and if I ask I can take it back and still play with it in the other world, for now stay calm and see the situation. The goddess as expected is a top beauty that models would cover in shame for being in the same place as her, with a beautiful Greek style dress blue crystal hair and golden eyes and her body have curves in the correct places and 2 big watermelons in her chest, I can see some girls seeing her with jealous gazes and the boys are in daze, typical. "Miss my name is Takei Mitsuzuka I want to ask who are you and where and what are we doing here?" That Takei Mitsuzuka really have guts asking the name of a being that if he is not god of another world, he is someone so powerful to break the wall or whatever worlds have that separated them to summon a whole class to another world and sending them to a created space where nothing is there, and I am thankful that I still remember what is the usual in the Isekai stories I read when I was engrossed in that thing. "I am Minesh, nice to meet you, I am the goddess of life and this is a blank space that I created, so I could talk to you before sending you to my world" Wow she is easy going and very straight, I like that, I am not like all the people here who can read the mood to know what people want to say. There are people that cant understand the mood so if you can¡¯t say things straight, people like me could misunderstand. "Then can we please could go back to our world?" That Takei have a vein popped in his forehead, well he surely studied hard by the test that we would have if not for the summoning, I heard one time that he wanted to be the first place in the school board, hey if a test actually concern you more than actual magic, then you never had a childhood. "Well that thing about that is it was not my idea to call you here, you see, you know of Merlin the great wizard?" "Yes" "He studied in my world summoning magic and decided to use your worlds coordinates for the prototype of the summoning when he perfected that spell he left the prototype here and a Kingdom found it, since then when a calamity happens they use that spell to call people of your world to help them" So Merlin the great wizard that helps Arthur becoming king of England is the one responsible of this?, that¡¯s something that normal people will have difficulty to understand, but I am okay about that, I read some stories that talked about Merlin, he was very eccentric in his time. "Anyway since all I could do is to help you with the boost and your class that you will gain for the summoning magic I come to you so you could tell me about it I will give you some equipment too, but for adjustment¡¯s sake, ask something that you achieved. An example is if you were good in tennis you have a good arm and you have a good swing, then maybe a sword, or if you are good with javelin jumps you could use spears, or in the easier of the cases if you trained with martial arts you could be a martial artist. Also, not only because you ask for cheat powers you will instantly become the overlord of erogeland and if you still try then I will give you a curse, now come I have other things to do, being a god is not always easy" The goddess Minesh clapped her hands and all of my classmates and the teacher, they become very calm, they also read stories like this, well I could see something like creepy smiles here and there, others more innocent like and the teacher become dejected, I would try to cheer them up, but I am busy thinking of Martial Era. When people happen to end their requests they become balls of lights that waited for the rest, it is the turn of the teacher now. Enjoying the story? Show your support by reading it on the official site. "What can I have that fit my abilities?" "First to ask, good, you are the teacher, then you have a great amount of knowledge, what is your area of expertise?" "I am their physics teacher" "In offensive, you immediately could be a sage and wizard, a battle mage if you learn hand-to-hand combat in my world and in the support you could be an alchemist, that if you play it well could be offensive too, the materials of my world are the same as yours only the names are different" Wow, he has brains in his head, mages, wizards, and sages were already picked why one need more?, that made you less necessary, less necessary is bad, that world could be one of carnage and war with what we know. "I want to be an alchemist, some group decided to be healers I want to support them in the area where I am good" "Good, good, gentle and caring, something unusual in men if I need to say so myself" "Is the times that are now" "I have a question, why a great part of your class were so calm?, the other god¡¯s tell me they will freaked out" "They like anime and light novels the ones who didnt know have friends that talk about of it, I also heard of the Isekai novels, this genre is very used, so they know mostly what the situation could be there" Yep, most of my class is in that, on these days it is more normal than before, I was into that too but then I go to Martial Era. "And that guy there that is seeing me with great intensity?" "That¡¯s Aiden a good student if he were not always with his cell phone, but all in all the best student I have" He really has me in high regards, you know that my last test was an eight right?. "Well then you go and wait, but remember your only obligation is to defeat the demon lord, fight for all humanity is something you can decide, they are not exactly the best beings in the world if you know what I say." "Slavery?" "Slavery" Nothing new "War idiots?" "War idiots" What else? "Corrupted nobles?" "Corrupted nobles" Typical "At least there are people that could change the world in a good way?" "......Have this list, they are the names of the ones that need to protect if you want a good chance" Good move Minesh. "One last thing that I need to know?" "Yes, you can die, protection of God is only an illusion that the humans invented for the heroes to blindly follow their orders, you could believe it they say I am male and the ones who know my true form decided to not tell them for fear of the church?!" Mee, it happened that dark gods are good and only because they are the representation of darkness they think are bad, humans always want things their way. "Well good bye it was great talking with you" I see a blush there, so you like them mature miss goddess, well my turn now. "And you Aiden what do you want?" "My cell phone please" "No" "Why!?" "Is a god law that all technology of other worlds stays in their worlds, gods not like when a world change because of other worlds objects, they are proofs, knowledge is acceptable, but things is a big no, no, why do you think I am giving all of you equipment?" "Please!, I spend years to finally enjoy playing again!, I suffer so much!, let me use my character please!" "Why are you so obsessed with that game of yours?" "How did you know?" "You said character and I saw your class when you were transported, why is so important for you that game?" "I spend years using a handicapped character, I spend money, time and effort to max the level!; I want to enjoy the fruits of my efforts!" "Why so obsessed?" "I simply wanted to enjoy my character after all the suffering that I go through for getting my character to max level, you know it was called the masochist class when people talk about it!, that class also was erased for selection since a year ago!, I am the last that still play with it!, I can¡¯t let go of that after how much I invested, curse me but let me play with my character please!" "I can¡¯t do that" "I will do anything!" "The level of technology is way too far for my world" "Anything please!" "You need therapy, with needles and drugs" I can''t believe that I wouldn¡¯t be able to enjoy reaching level max after what I suffer, the hours of boredom, the money I saved to buy cash items to not fall behind other people in raids, I even happened to have a bug so my character become a cheat!, curse me or whatever but let me have my cell phone!. "Hey nothing of tears on my dress is new!" "Anything!" "Fine, fine!, just shut up and dry your tears!" "THANK YOU!" After things calm down, and we came up with an agreement, we came to an agreement. "Are you sure you want this?, this can be heart breaking in some cases" "I made my decision!" "Fine, treat deal, but one last thing, the law is the law, so I can¡¯t give you your cell phone since the technology of my world still not reached that level yet" "Then how will...you.........shit" "That¡¯s your curse, have a nice life" After Minesh words a light surrounds my whole being, then all become dark, but before I lose my consciousness with a sigh my last thought was. "I reaped what I sow"
In the world under Minesh protection, in the human territory the Kingdom that use the summoning magic inside the castle, the class of Aiden was transported, all in all no one is missing, some of them have different hair and/or eyes color, fitting more to the element they wield, some were the same as before, but one was the most changed of all, first, that person lost his height, hair and eyes color, the appearance is now of someone above his ten years of age and the gender is changed. If someone asks about this person no one will be able to tell, but now Aiden Byrd is a now in the body of Jin Chen his game character in the game Martial Era. Chapter 1 I am in a big room with my classmates, I could see how some of them become excited, others depressed and other with fear, and they need to have fear, fear is a good emotion that can save life¡¯s in the most important moments. "Welcome heroes is great seeing how the God Minesh care about us to give us so many capable to free our world of the chaos the demons are doing" Okay, now this is clich¨¦, that girl under the age of 15 with a tiara in her golden hair, with blue eyes and a fancy dress couldn¡¯t be anything than a princess, obviously with the room surrounded with guards in western armor. "In the name of my Kingdom I sincerely apologize for the sudden summon, but we are in our most needy time, my name is Alessandra Coldfiel, I am the first princess of the kingdom of Aclay, please help us!" Good act, bowing after that speech I can give you a 9.5, but you need to be in character all the time, since I am in her right I can see the scornful view in her eyes under her long golden hair. "Please princess raise your head, we are not worthy of it, what is the problem to the point of summoning us?" Now I am seeing the guy of my class with the hero syndrome, Kyoke Hayato, beautiful, stupid, with a sense of justice, if I remember correctly he was planning to be a cop, now his eyes are white and his hair is golden. "Sorry, but we are on a tight schedule, come with us please, the examination room is waiting" Hey, princess, you are rushing things, you can¡¯t see that five of our class are still, in a daze?, well I think this is my turn to help, first that girl there.
POV Change: Girl Classmate I was in daze, after the unreal things that happened I think nothing more could surprise me now, first, the glowing circle, then that beautifully stunning woman say that we will become heroes, we could choose our class, I was scared when all of them become balls of light and it was worst when it was my turn and now the transportation to this room with a beautiful princess and western knights, now what is next?. "Yashima san, we need to move" When that beautiful voice called me I feel a shake in my left shoulder, what came into my view was a girl, with pink hair, her right eye with a Sapphire blue and the other emerald green, she has a body that even the princess would envy it. I don¡¯t remember talking to her, in the first place she is not using our uniform, she has a black Chinese shirt, with golden lines on the edges and center of the shirt and with pink flower patterns in the hips area and a green long skirt, but the most eye-catching thing is her right arm that is completely bandaged, to the tips of her fingers and beyond the long sleeve of her, I came to reality when I see that she was waking up the others of their daze. "Better help her" And just like that, I help that pink haired beauty to wake up the other four classmates and follow the rest for whatever purpose they have. I am still curious of whom this person is.
POV Change: Back to MC That was easier thanks to Yashima Kiyumi a girl for my class, she still has her black hair, but now her eyes are of a clear blue like crystal, she is of the big chest side and use glasses to read, she is a shy person of good heart, she helped me with my homework in the school sometimes, and I can say I like her. In the class are two groups, this group, it could be said to be or the mentally weak persons or the shy and secluded persons, they are of the go home club just like me, but I could tell, no one has insanity in their faces. When we reach the others it was in the middle of a hallway and is where I find the other group of people here, the ones who wanted to be in another world and/or were the ones who become full of themselves, their eyes when they saw the faces of the others were full of contempt, guys, not all the class read Isekai stories or are with a strong mind, give them a chance. Support the author by searching for the original publication of this novel. "We are here, this the examination room, here we have an appraisal stone with this we will be able to see your status, wait a moment to prepare all" Well, we are here whatever, first let me see if I have the status magic. "Status"

I will not say it in full voice, that will be weird, and for my status they different than the last time I remember, my level now is 1 again and my stats are different too they are more ordered, not like I am complaining, if you take out the pluses of armors and other things, a normal characters overall stats in Martial Era couldn¡¯t pass the 1500000 limits, but mine are special and actually it has the overall stats of almost two characters in one if one is not counting the pluses my stats have, the cheat my character has and her character handicap. My divine power was affected too, it has 500 more than before without the pluses and I have mana now, spiritual power and health are the same, that means the only things that changed apart of that are my titles and class, the first the second is the one I have in Martial Era. Well now that I know my stats I will see what the appraisal stone can show, I am in good timing someone is talking to the princess. "Please heroes I ask you to form a line so we can know your class please" Hey, maybe the others couldn¡¯t tell but I see that you frowned when you say "please". "Now everyone forms a line the order is for height, now, go" Oh, Teacher Genjo, always reliable and sorry but I think that the princess put you in her blacklist, well since the line is for height I am in the middle, now is time to see the work of the appraisal stone. First is Isaki Izo, he if you don''t take account of his low height you will see he has muscles.
Knight
This class is for people who have a strong body and are capable to protect his companions and deal damage to his opponents
And the appraisal continued I was relieved they couldn¡¯t see the stats, because if they can then, my stats will make them become crazy, the most common class were.
Wizard
A capable mage that understood the way the world work he can use all elements in magic and can use magic circles to increase his power and range
Magic Swordsman
A warrior capable os using magic, only the ones who decided to walk in the way of both sword and magic could make good use of this class
Martial Artist
This is a person who trained his body in all ways possible now that he achieve great strength is time to train more.
Bishop
A person capable of using the holy power of the gods, he by offering prays and magic plead to the gods to help him in his life
There were people with more than one class I was one of them and rest had more unique classes, I was included in that too.
Apprentice
This unique person could be called a genius, he is capable to learn anything that could be learned, but since he could learn anything it will take the double the effort to mastering
Since this took all the day all of us were guided to our rooms, so we could rest for the next day that surely will make separations in this class. Chapter 2 I can finally sleep!, since the last night that I lack sleep, playing Martial Era can be thought sometimes. "This feels so surreal, the whole thing, the summons, the walk, the appraisal, this beautiful ornamented room, this body too" But it is not, actually, this can be said to be one of the most thrilling moments in the life of any teenager student, but I am very calm. "Maybe is this body, I used to be a hardcore player and Jin Chen already saw carnage and destruction, but that¡¯s impossible Minesh said that she created her and not that she created the whole world with her story attached to her"
Flashback "So if I want to play with my character again, I need to do an agreement with you?, I will do then" "First, what I will do is something that will change my world for good or evil, so I need to make things clear, you will be my envoy, whatever I order you, you will do, if I say, go kill, you kill, go protect, you protect, if I say become a bitch, you become a bitch" "That¡¯s, harsh you know?" ¡°Believe me, the reward is worth it......for some......Anyway I will make sure the orders are something that you could do and I will give you opportunities so you could avoid becoming the breed doll of an almost extinct race, another thing you will let me have is complete access to your body, so I could talk in the mortal plane, in exchange you will have the opportunity to enjoy your character, I am clear?" "YES!" "First let me see what is all this fuss...HOLY MOTHER OF ME!, that¡¯s a hell of a character, is like a demigod!¡± When I heard the words of Minesh I couldn¡¯t contain my pride and started to talk about how I made my character this powerful and how I ended up so involved in the game.
Flashback This addiction started when I started creating my first game character in Martial Era, by the name one could say is an oriental myth based game, were one could be a martial artist in the world where serpent-like dragons, tigers bigger than a mountain, turtles with unbreakable shell and birds that emanated fire can be challenged. The main story is of a simple kid with a tragic past, he becomes an orphan because an evil sect, were given to him/her the opportunity to hold a cultivation manual, then he mastered the first stage, who is the most simple of the cultivation, the ¡°awakening¡±, this made you take notice of your own meridians and with that you are now able to go and join any sect to continue your journey of vengeance in this martial world, you can also discover this world secrets and making you in one of the most prominent cultivators of your time. As the story says, the game have a certain amount of sects that were available to play, the sects where one decided the style to play, Ninja sect, for assassins style, Imperial Guards sect for the tank style, Scholars sect for Fighters style, Onmyoji sect for mages style, Samurai sect for the warriors style, and the gender-exclusive sects, the Taoist sect for males this is a combination of a warrior and a mage style and the Deadly feather sect for females that were like a sword dancer. But in the beginning of the game there was one more sect, it was called the Sacred Beasts sect, it was an opening exclusive sect that was only available for the first month of Martial Era, I regretted choosing this sect the first time I played it, all the sects have their own descriptions, so the player could have an idea of what style he will to play, for the Sacred Beast''s sect it was the solo style and the description was something that could be say that called attention. [It is the only sect that decided to not go against the heavens and earth, but decided to go with them, since this Sect was founded for the four sacred beasts, the warriors of all world tried to learn their techniques, but now, no one wanted to even see of this sect. (For masochists only)] The last words fit the experience in that meaning of the world, first, the characters that come of this sect have a great de-buff, the amount of experience needed to level up grow to the insane, a normal character could max his level in half a year, my character needed at least more than 2 years to max his level, the other characters only need to master one weapon, mine needed to master four.Reading on Amazon or a pirate site? This novel is from Royal Road. Support the author by reading it there. I mentioned that the mastery of the weapons is linked to the level too?, then it comes to the meridians, I said it before, but this is an oriental based fantasy game, the meridians can be said to be an important part for the game, they are power-ups or pluses that the character could gain, they are also linked to the levels if you want to know, and lastly all classes have their own exclusive quests to do. Apart that the quests also have their own weapon mastery quests, the important ones are to unlock the crest, the crest is a tattoo in the body of your character in a certain part of the body that gives special characteristic to your character, the special characteristics are of each sect, so all players can have it, for example, for the Samurai sect, his crest is a tattoo of a sword in the sword hand that increase the power, dexterity, speed and precision of his attack if he uses a sword. My character tattoo is the symbol of the four sacred beasts under the yin-yang symbol in the back of my character, they increase Dexterity, Defense, Speed and Constitution a little, like 10 points and elemental damage depending on what symbol of the sacred beasts I activated, when I find out about it I decided to make my character be based on strength. The real question is if the players could unlock the special characteristics, when it comes to these quests, my character have the worst, normally the player only need to clear a dungeon to complete the quest, fast, simple and easy, but mine no, I needed to harvest exclusive items that only I can obtain of certain monsters with 10% of probability to drop, it was the same quest, over and over again, the only change was the amount I needed of that item increased, then it came with the weapons quests, all of them representing the four sacred beasts. Seiryu a katana, Byakko a pair of claws, Susaku were a pair of fans and Genbu it was to train with gauntlets style, I needed them to be in a certain level to have the final quest, and last but not less is the final quest, that is to win to the four sacred beasts, Suzaku, Genbu, Seiryuu and Byakko. Maybe one will think, but separated not?, no, the one versus one was before the final, the final is the four sacred beasts at the same time, as one can understand this is a raid quest, mean to be completed by a big group of players, but I was not that popular with the other players and for me to hire them I need to give them cash items and money, so much that the month before the raid I was almost without a thing to eat, so I can save money, it was harsh, but I complete the quest. It was at this moment when all my hopes come true when I report the completion of my quest it appeared cinematic where the four sacred beasts transport me to their cave, then an epic speech of how I made it through all the challenges, and they want me to become their child. I don¡¯t know if this part could be different but since I decided to complete all quests, have the mastery of all the weapons to max and have my crest almost complete, I was given the option to become the four sacred beast''s child at the same time, I will never know I was the first in my server and maybe of the world!......naah the world no, there are persons like me or worst that will do the things I did. Since then, I can have the form of a small and blue oriental dragon, a red phoenix, a white tiger and a black turtle with a serpent in the tail, to make things better I have complete control of the four elements, Water, fire, wind and earth, or in-game standards, I can put elemental damage to my attacks and the cost of all original elemental skills halved. Oh I almost forgot, when I receive my reward of the four sacred beasts my character meridians opened, another handicap was that the meridians of my character were in a semi blocked state, I could power up my character but it was less than a quarter the normal amount, to tell the truth, I forgot of this when I saw that it was not worth to take care of it, and it was less worth when the incident that gave me the cheat that now I enjoy so much happened. The last thing I got was four sets of gears for the four styles I have, that were when my joy was to the point that I could die happy, then I fainted for exhaustion after an hour of celebrating. The morning came and it was school day, so still with great difficulty I go to class, when I reach my desk I check my items ring, yep you heard it, the game has the spatial ring item instead of the item bag, I bought all the expansions that only were a change of color in the ring, and now I have enough space to hold 99 times 9999 things. Sadly when I was going to enjoy beating the other players in the pvp arena I was summoned to become a hero with my class and now here I am. End of the flashback
"You were a hyperactive boy, now I feel tired of just listening to you, and that character of yours is broken, to have so much power" "Well then that¡¯s all you need to know" "Whatever, give me a minute" I waited and in the end, the goddess Minesh give me one last chance to take back my words. "Are you sure you want this?, this can be heart breaking in some cases"
End of the flashback A flashback inside a flashback, that could be a good idea if you know how to make a joke about it. "Well, apparently I was wrong Minesh never say that the story so far will not affect my mind, this could be a problem if I meet a person with the same appearance as the villain in Martial Era, good thing is that the chance is 1 against a number so big that it will need to be invented of chances to happen" While I was almost going to arrive in the dreamland I hear a familiar goddess voice. [Enjoying your body I hope] Chapter 3 [Enjoying your new body, I hope] After hearing the voice of Minesh in my head, I sit in my bed. "Like hell I can after what happened, also Minesh, you can hear my thoughts?" [Yes] Good, then I will talk to you like this, it will be weird if someone hears me talking alone, now, you need something? [Remember when I said that I will let you have the opportunity to avoid becoming a whore breeder for an almost extinct race?] "......Who noble, general or high ranking person want to drive what race in extinction?" [Is an orphan noble kid who lost his father in one of the clashes with the elven race] If you don''t take into account the fact that humans are war idiots, he is justified, but how a noble kid can have the power to drive an entire race to extinction? [His father was a duke in Aclay, with the largest territory in it, and for your information Aclay is one of the largest Kingdoms in my world, the forces that kid can command numbered more than a million, if he decided and obtain the permission of the king, many elf¡¯s will die a cruel death, the survivors will become slaves and the others left will become so wary of humans that you will need 400 years to at least gaining their trust] ......the army of that kid is that big? [Yes, the army of that kid exceeds the entire elf¡¯s population 15 to 1 including old people and kids, it will be a total annihilation] How can they drive the elf race to almost extinction and not fight back the demon king? [Who say they can¡¯t?, they invoke all of you only to lose fewer forces in the war] ......Can I destroy this Kingdom? [You can, but I warn you. This is your first day in this world, you know nothing of this world, nor do you know what this kingdom is capable of. Even you could fall to their sheer numbers and tactics. Especially when you have yet to adjust to your body and understand your capabilities. Your body may have the experience, but your mind certainly does not.] Fine, how I can change the mind of that kid? [That¡¯s for you to decide, become a sister figure to him and gain his affection and trust so you will have an influence on him, threats are good too or you can kill it, the day he will come to ask for the permission is in a week, if you fail, you will need to fight the forces of that kid and if you fail that as well, the last will be to become the breeder doll of the elf¡¯s] Got it, one last question, why you give me the class Apprentice? and not some more combat oriented class. [That class can be combat oriented, maybe you don¡¯t know but a skill of that class can make things easy for you, to your information all of you not only have the status appraisal skill, but also the skill appraisal skill, I know the name is weird saying the least, but you can see your skills and what level they are if you want] Don¡¯t want to, I am tired. [¡­¡­You are an immortal demigod with an almost endless stamina, a body harder than a great number of metals, and with the need of only satisfy the human needs one time every 500 hundred years, you are not tired] I mean mentally tired. [Your wisdom status says otherwise.] If I say I am tired is because I am tired, meeting a goddess of another world, summoned to another world, changing body and gender, see how corrupt a person can have the face of an angel, how easy some of my classmates lost their sanity, and the others start to shiver in fear, how the power can go to the head, and preparing for the rejection I will surely suffer when I told them about my change of genders, and I will tell them because the more I postpone the worse it can be and all of this in a single day, now I want to sleep to forget about all of this for a moment, so now let me sleep. [......] Thank you, were my last thoughts after- [Why are you narrating what are you doing and is happening around you] All people have some craziness in them, this is part of mine, now, LET, ME, SLEEP! [......] And now in a bad mood, I submerge me in my drea-......NO PEEKING! [Tsk] You didn¡¯t say you were busy doing goddess things?, don¡¯t talk, only let me sleep, now, with worse mood than before I got to sleep, wishing to be dreamland and not nightmare land. The next morning I woke up with the best sleep I have, a dreamless sleep, and thanks to this comfy bed I sleep like a baby. I was stretching my arms when a beautiful maid with blond hair and brown eyes enter the room. "Oh, miss hero, you are awake?, then I am just right in time, the royal family want to have a meal with all the heroes, I am here to dress you for the occasion." "......Please choose a dress with the least frills possible" "As you wish" Unauthorized reproduction: this story has been taken without approval. Report sightings. As if this maid does not hear my pleads she chose a pink dress with so many frills that make me question if I said with the most and not the least frills possible, but I saw the other dresses, this is actually the frills less dress she found and the worst is that the dress reveal my cleavage making me taking account my b-boo-chest!, the chest!, I feel like I am some sort of transvestite, when the maid put a mirror in front of me I saw her delighted face. "That dress sees lovely in you~, and when your hair grow more, it will fit perfectly~" That¡¯s not blabbering, this dress suits me so well that I forgot the feeling of being a transvestite, and then I remember something. I have a whole wardrobe in my items ring, were swimsuits, other were underwear, some were clothes with latex, and more......it was in the time when I already spend money in the game, and since a great part was for the sake of my characters grow, I thought, "what the hell I will not spend money on other things?", and before I knew, 2000 of my items ring space blocks were of clothes, underwear and more. In my defense, I was dead bored at that time and probing all the clothes the game has been like a breath of clean air after a whole year of doing the same thing day and night. When I finally make it to the dining room I see all of my classmates where there already, it seems I am the last to arrive, as I scanned the room I see, at the end of the table was the princess Alessandra. Sitting next to her, a man with the same blue eyes, though with brown hair. Then I see the king. Alessandra looks like she''s taken after her father. She has the same blue eyes and blonde hair as her father. The queen was less impressive. With brown eyes and blue hair, while still beautiful, she seemed to have an aura of apathy around her, as if she didn''t care about the world in the slightest. "Sorry for arriving late, the selection of the dress took me more time than needed" I say it making a bow, then I go to the last place of the table, which was in the other end of the table, far, far away of the royal family who I was really grateful, then we started to eat. I don¡¯t know why but the meals apparently have the same rules in the noble part of this world than in mine, a fork, knife and spoon for certain dishes, a glass for water and a cup for whine, I am lucky that I am the clich¨¦ European exchange student who lived in high-class society, surely grandpa and grandma would be proud. Hey royal family, I know that you think of us as barbarians, but remember, that we are of a different world and with...well the others are of a different culture, if this is like the other Iseaki stories I can camouflage well in your society. King, don¡¯t cross stares with me, now I need to bow, so I can show you my respects, you know?, don¡¯t talk to your son too......great, just great, now they have me in their sights, now what is next? "Ehem!, heroes my father King Evyot the third want to make an announcement" Okay this is strange, normally the one who normally will have the privilege to talk will be the prince, but why he seems so reluctant to talk to us?, I would think because the Kingdom is actually a Queendom, but the queen is acting like the world no matter the slightest to her, then what is it?. "I am grateful to hear that all of you decided to help us in this dire times, I hope that you can make this world more peaceful and free of the demon''s invasion, but since you only arrived yesterday you are still green in the combat aspect, so after this meal all of you will go to the gardens, I arranged instructors so you can polish your abilities, next time I see you I know that your progress will be astonishing" After his proclamation, king Evyot goes out of the room followed by Alessandra, then the queen and finally the prince. Since this can be the only chance, why not talk about my change of genders there?, after the meal, all of us go to the garden, I was going to clap my hands, so I can have their attention, but our teacher did it before I could do. "Now class, maybe this is a new world, but I am still your teacher and the adult in charge of you, first thing in the agenda is to form a line, I will say your name and if someone is not here we need to know why" Now, this is perfect when it comes to my name I will reveal my situation, when the names were called all my classmates state their presence with a "here" and when it comes to my name. "Aiden Byrd" "Here!" When I said it the whole class directs their views to me...... this is awkward. Chapter 4 "Aiden Byrd" "Here!" The views directed to me were piercing like needles right now, guys, I change genders treat me the same way as before?, like hell that will happen. Now teacher what will you do? I can see some guys are whispering something to one another and the girls are seeing me with a strange look, why? "Excuse me miss, but who are you?, we know you are not Aiden Byrd, he is a guy of blond hair and green eyes, that the only thing he does is playing some sort of game in his cell phone, can you please tell us who you are?" That Takei, so straight, well I can''t blame him, my body change so much that my grandparents will never recognize me, less my classmates, now are time to tell of the change. "Well remember that Minesh said that she will curse someone if he or she asks for cheat like powers?" "??, H-how do you know!?, you were there!?" "Don''t ask...well it¡¯s not obvious, yes I was there, I am Aiden Byrd, what happened is that Minesh curse me when I ask for...well...of-" "Cheat powers?" I will not confirm it or deny it, that part they can imagine what they want. "And now you are a woman?" "Yup" "You are not way too calm to be changed so much?" "I''m not, is simple, I reaped what I sow, at least I am still a human, and maybe is not the way I wanted but Minesh give me what I asked" This gives the others a shock, the goddess curse me but still give me what I asked, in their minds they think it is a cheat like powers, but it is not......well yes it is, but I never asked for them, I asked for my cell phone, that not means they don''t have some envy when they see me. "Is that class?, why a class that sounds so simple?" Again better not deny nor confirm, better to keep for their imagination and since we are not confirming anything why not a topic change? "That isn''t important right now, we need information right now, we don''t know anything of this world, and we are stuck here unless the goddess by pity send us back to our world, or we find a way ourselves, because no one will do for use, at least not for free." "And that class of yours can help us?" "I take a look to my skills, and what I have can become of help, one of my skills give me the capability to learn skills and magic faster when I have a mentor to teach me, but in exchange it will take the double the effort to learn things alone, that means if by chance I make a mage who can use transportation magic I will be capable to learn it, but that is under the assumption that a person like that exists, if not then, the search will be upon you" "That...can be convenient in some ways...but are you sure it¡¯s alright Aiden?" "Sensei, what is done is done, we need to focus in our next step and remember to be on guard, that is more for you girls, I need to warn you, we are in a medieval-like fantasy world, and so you need to know that the feminine gender can be commonly seen as the weak sex in this world, what I am trying to say is, be wary of any men, they can be a potential rapist"If you stumble upon this narrative on Amazon, it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. To my words, I hear some girls saying, "what did you say?", and the men with furious eyes in their faces, oh, I see a vein in that guy. "Hey I am only saying the truth, in this era the men still thought that they own the world and that being a king was by God''s will, but hey if you want to be friendly with a mercenary or a knight with scars under his face and with the experience of countless nights in a brothel I will not stop you. Neither for the handsome men, but remember, that under that perfectly chiseled face, they can have a dark soul under it and a harem with countless girls, our classmates are under question too by the way" Now, I see openly hostile faces and veins in almost all guys, except some, who apparently, are so stupid to know of sex, you know the goody two shoe type of person, the ones who can be a protagonist in a story. "Well, what I said are only situations that can happen, I know that some of you saw this type of stories before, and if you go for the anti-hero protagonist you will see some darker things, violation, slavery, rape, betrayals and more. It is worst if you go to h*nt*i, things can become really bad in the worst type of situation and the way the heroine or the male lover ended can be worse than death" Now all my class are shivering in fear like they were remembering one of the most traumatic of their lives. You really didn¡¯t thought about what could happen?, man you are so screwed if you continue like that. "Also things like becoming brainless beasts can happen too, or if you have a loved one they can be taken away for you or you will be incapable to do anything but to see how she is taken away of you, remember this world can be worse than Earth" "Okay we believe you, but it is truly stunning, that the cell phone guy become a pretty girl" "Remember, I was a guy before...........but to your fortune actually I am bi, still good luck, I know the tricks to seduce a woman, they will not work on me" And now my classmates have surprised faces, hey I am bi, not an alien(?), well they are better than the others who have perverted ones, I can guess what the guys are thinking, I can see the word Yuri in their heads and some girls have Yaoi word in their heads too. And now here it comes our teacher to save the day, by clapping his hands he calm down the whole class. "Now, calm down all of you, I know this is a shock for all, but we need to proceed, since we are complete now we need to discuss our next move, what will we do?" Okay, that¡¯s a stupid question. "We better train here, after we have some survival abilities and knowledge of this world we decide what to do, now we need to train and stay close. We are weak and can be killed if we don¡¯t comply with the kingdom or the worst can happen." "Okay that¡¯s a good idea, anyone has another?" That teacher, always impartial, good, now you guys, what are your ideas?...I am waiting...Hey, I know that some are blank for the things that I say, but don¡¯t be like sheep¡¯s, have your own ideas, say something! "No other ideas?......okay, then since things are decided, you are free to do what you want here, but remember not get out of the garden" Stupid classmates. That¡¯s the end, surprisingly my classmates not give bad reactions, well that if you don¡¯t count the lustful eyes some of them have, now I will only sit and-. "Aiden san, I want to ask you something?" "Me too" "Hey Aiden, I need to talk to you" "I have a question" Wa-wa-wa-wa-wa-wa-wa-wa-wa-wa-wa-wa-wait!, why half of the class is coming to me!?, stop!, "I feel like can¡¯t breathe!, get out of me!, hey!, who is the one who touched my butt!" "STOOOOOP!" Fiuu, that was close, a little more and things would be bad for them, nice job Yashima. "Thanks Yashima san." "You¡¯re welcome, AND YOU GUYS-!" Now I see how a good scold is given to half my class by a girl with big chest and glasses, this is not a clich¨¦ too?, still the scolding was so strong that before Yashima finished her long scold half the class was in seiza with the heads down. "The next time, I will punish you!" "We are sorry!" Yashima really have a thing to be a leader, she has a figure of authority in her. The scold ended at the right moment, when all the class were up, a group of people came to us, there it was Alessandra, the guy I think is her brother, a little pretty girl who have purple hair and is wearing a purple robe, an old man of brown hair, have a big beard and is wearing a brown robe too, a middle age woman of deep red hair, wearing a knight armor, a middle age man of black hair in a knight armor too, then a young man of blue hair, with rectangular glasses, wearing a white robe and a teenager girl of green hair in rogue clothes, with a belt full of glass containers up her pants. They stand up in front of us, and then Princess Alessandra talked. "Sorry for making you wait, they are your instructors, they will guide you in your path you have to become powerful heroes and save us from the demons" Chapter 5 Things come that the six people were our instructors, the little pretty girl with purple hair and robe is a royal mage that will be the magic profession instructor, the old man of brown hair, with the big beard and brown robe too is also a royal mage, but he will be the battle mage instructor. The middle age woman of deep red hair in knight armor is of the knight order of this country she will be the magic warrior instructor, the middle age man of black hair was of the knight order too, is the weapons-man instructor, I say weapons-man because he can use swords, spears, axes, mazes, and another type of weapons, he showed his skills when some doubted him, he will teach for all who have the spearman, archer, swordsman, etc as a job. Then it comes to the young man of blue hair in a white robe he is for the church and will be the instructor to the ones who have healers type class, and the last was the girl of green hair in rogue clothes, with a belt full of glass containers up her pants, she is a searcher in the castle and will be the exclusive instructor for teacher who is the only one with alchemist class......that if I don¡¯t decide to go with them sometimes, hey I need to know if he will be the one with harem, he is so popular with the girls in my school when still being in his late twenties, so the one who has more chances to have a harem is him. "Tea-I mean Sensei I need to say a thing to you" I will not say it loud that will be weird, so I''m whispering to him. "Yes, but why are we whispering?" "Nothing that need to concerns the others but I will say this once...I will not be a part of your harem" "WHAT!?" Now all the views are on us, good gob teacher, now we are the center of attention. I don¡¯t like to admit but Teacher is sexy, his well-proportioned face, he exercises in the mornings all the days so his body is in good shape and with the glasses that make him have an air of a calm wise person in him, he can be a great catch for all women, so he is a great source of envy to me who will need to fight for lesbian and gay relationships to be accepted in this world if they are that old minded. "T-that will be not a problem, don¡¯t worry" And with that, the conflict was evaded...As if, my classmates then come to use trying to know what conversation we had, in the end, they dismiss as I said that it was the way how the prince has good looks...well he haves, still the most he will make it with me, will be as a friend!...I think¡­well I think is a fifty to fifty the only impression I have of him is when I eat with them, well not that I care for a lover right now. "Ahem!" Opss~, Alessandra has a smile, but a deep frown was under her eyes, okay I need to save this. "Then her highness Princess Alessandra, we will be divided into groups now?" "...Yes, you will be divided by your class, now since we know your class, there will be some who will choose the ones you will have for the nature of its class, for example, you miss hero are one of them. One of our famous persons had it before, your second class has great potential but also a great demerit, still, it¡¯s one of the most powerful classes, capable of learning anything, no matter if you have an affinity for it or not, magic has his limits but maybe you can use it too" Save it......maybe "I will go with mage please, I want to learn magic first" "...Very well then" Now standing on one side of the little pretty girl with purple hair I see the rest of my class going to different groups, we are 25 in total counting the teacher and me, 4 more come with us, 7 got with the battle mage, 5 with the magic warrior, 4 with weapons-man 3 with the cleric and teacher with the searcher. ¡°Before you go I need to remind you, we need capable people to liberate the world of the demons, we are counting on all of you.¡± My ears hear your words but I hear too how you grit your teeth. When the class separated, and we follow our instructors I take a note for the others who are in the group. There is this shy guy, I think his name was Okumura Yuki, no one better than him for recommending you an anime, he is the tiny silent guy of good nature, I hope that nature is still here right now, then Tsunoi Fumi, she could be called the bitch of the group if not that she only has the looks, she is actually a very diligent girl, who for your information is a fujoshi, actually she was one who I could swear had the word Yaoi when I said my sexuality, and last but no less is Zakai Ippei, he is an energetic guy with a wild nature.The narrative has been illicitly obtained; should you discover it on Amazon, report the violation. I hate this guy, well he is one who could be said bully me because I never get my cell phone out of my face, I am not blaming them, but when you throw away the cell phone of someone else, you paid for it, really, he still need to pay for the cell phone he breaks when he threw it out of the class. When we go to a spacious room inside a tower that I never saw because I never see from my window, the little girl started to talk. "Hello all, my name is Sheri Farsinger, I will be your instructor in magic. First of all, I don¡¯t want to know your name or what you are good, you came here to learn the magic, now since I will not want to call you with a ¡°hey¡± or ¡°you", I will give you nicknames!, you will be Seductress, you Muscle-head, you will be brown, and you Shy, stop trembling! Am I Seductress? "Why I am Seductress?" "Your hair and dress are pink, pink is the color of lust, normally when one wants to make an official proposition to become a concubine, meaning ¡°I only want to mate with you¡± is tradition to give a gift of pink color and is normally used to difference prostitutes of the normal woman in the brothels" Ouch¡­...hold a minute!, that maid!, she made me use a pink dress!, and maybe the king wanted me to be used as a concubine for his (I still don''t know) son!?, damn!, Hell no!, not like that!. I am sure this is Alessandra doing, because I am more pretty than her!, if I sound narcissist is because I have the right to sound like one, this body can be a world top model in earth at easy, and the chest is not lacking a thing, if I were to go to any industry surely can be one that can use this big chest of mine that can be confused as melons. "Thanks for saying it" I am so depressed now. "Of course seductress, you are a slut in the eyes of the people, but I know that this happens when someone wanted to make one lose face when important people are around, if you want a change of clothes, ask a maid" "...Thanks" "You¡¯re welcome seductress" I did as Sheri said and asked a maid for other clothes, making clear that I don¡¯t want pink, she said it will take some time, so I will need to wait. ¡°Please be fast¡± ¡°Yes, miss¡± When the maid goes for another change of clothes Sheri made us go to another room in the tower where there was another crystal inside the class appraisal stone was in the form of an orb made of a blue transparent crystal this is more like white transparent crystal and have hexagonal form. ¡°Touch it, this crystal will reveal your affinities.¡± Now here we have the information about magic, first, there are a great amounts to magic¡¯s in this world, the elemental magic that is of the fire, water, earth, wind, darkness and holy, of the color of red, blue, brown, green, black and white respectively, their sub-elements are lightning, ice, metal, shadow and light, since they are sub-elements they don¡¯t have color, that means if you can use fire magic, you also can use lightning magic, in some cases if the crystal shine with red color can mean that you have affinity only with lightning magic and the reverse could be said too. When it comes to wind, they still don¡¯t have any discovered sub-element, then it comes to the more specific magic¡¯s, summoning, charm, mind, space/time and soul they are magic¡¯s that all of us can learn, the problem is that is one hundred times more difficult to learn than the normal ones. ¡°Why is more difficult will be for another time, now go and touch the crystal, you first Muscle-head¡± ¡°Don¡¯t call me muscle head!¡± The next moment Zakai was on the floor with blank eyes, with foam in his mouth and having little spasms every 2 seconds. ¡°I am not lenient, if I want to call you Muscle-head then you are Muscle-head, next time you will be expelled of my training, Seductress your turn¡± So is obey or electric chair?, electr-I-I mean obey!, I choose to obey! And just like that, I touch the crystal, then six different colors shine, red, blue, brown, green, black and white, I never go with the dark and holy arts in Martial Era with Jin Chen, but if you take notice of my cheat....HAHAHAHAHA!, this is great! ¡°You will be my disciple!¡± ¡°¡­¡­okay?¡± ¡°Be more grateful seductress!, not all the time a royal mage can make you her disciple!¡± ¡°THANKS!, better?¡± ¡°¡­Passable¡± ¡°Then what about the others groups?, why their magic¡¯s are not inspected?¡± ¡°The battle mages, magic warriors and the other weapons-related jobs need to have a deep understanding of their own combat ability for them to apply magic to their attacks, in other words they need to train their style before they use magic, if not then they can be in danger, the people that have a healing related job automatically have the holy magic, so there is no need to check and since the alchemist is a profession were magic is not always essential, the guy will have his affinity checked when needed¡± ¡°Okay¡± Then the others had their affinity checked too Yuki have dark magic and wind, Fumi have earth and water and last but no less, is Ippei we needed to put his hand while he was still unconscious, he has earth¡­only earth. ¡°And you, Ma-¡­Shisho Sheri? What are your affinities?¡± ¡°Shisho?, what that means¡± ¡°Something like Teacher, instructor and the like, basically what you are¡± ¡°I like it!, well as your shisho I will tell you, is fire, water, earth, wind and darkness, sorry but if you want to learn holy go to Glasses-cleric guy and ask.¡± "Glasses-cleric?, why glasses and not blue hair?" "People with blue hair are everywhere, but people with glasses are rarer than people with black hair" Oooooh, so that is why. ¡°Thank you¡± ¡°Well, now that I know your affinities, we will start the training, someone can go and drag Muscle-head?, we have a busy month in our hands¡± 5.5 Some days passed since we have our affinities tested, I practice all I could, but because of all the bad mouthing by the maids because of my hair, things become very tough, since all the meals we had were send to us by maids in our respective training areas so we could have more time to train we practically live in the tower excluding when we go to sleep. Things are tough to the others too, a hundred push-ups, jogging and more varied training for the rest, we rarely talk to each other since we live training every day. "Bath Time!" Like any normal person I take baths regularly to clean my body and since there are big bathrooms here the baths are divided into male and female baths, I go with the girls, me being biologically a girl is a perfect excuse to go there. "Life is unfair, I want a body like that too Aiden san" "Hello Yashima san, well at least you talk to me" She was the only one who talks to me when I am in the bathroom, the other girls are here as well, but they always go to a corner of the bathroom far from me to wash themselves, still they need to pass close to me to enter or exit the bathroom since I am close to the entrance. ¡°They need time to come to terms that you are a girl now and one more beautiful than them, with a well-toned body no less¡± "If you are talking about beauty I prefer to be less beautiful, remember where we are, this world is no joke and my body is because I trained" More like my character trained. "I know, but we can''t stop of being jealous about your beauty" "I still think it was too much with these watermelons" [You were the one who made them] Uhg!, still is better than having a child''s body, my appearance still resembles my age. "I''m really surprised, you manage to be this calm with the change of your gender" "What? you thought that I would be playing with my breasts like this~¡± What I''m doing right now is pushing down my breasts and they go back to floating in the water, since my breasts are in the water surface they are making little waves. ¡°boing~ boing~ boing~" Ah~, this brings memories~. ¡°S-stop!, respect more your body!¡± ¡°Okay~......boing~¡± ¡°Stop!¡± ¡°Sorry~, sorry~, I will stop now¡± ¡°If you are like this with other people then is no wonder people thought of you as a slut!...!?¡± Ouch, you know that what you said was too far? ¡°S-sorry!, i-it wasn''t my intention to said that!¡± ¡°But you said it, that was it count¡±Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon. ¡°S-sorry!¡± I would feel wronged if not that it was to help me¡­...I think¡­..maybe. ¡°Don''t worry and you want to know why people were calling me a slut?¡± ¡°W-why?¡± ¡°My hair, apparently the color pink means seduction and is used to differentiate whores for the normal woman in the brothels, and since pink is my natural color of hair now some maids started to bad mouthing me that I am a slut since the moment I was born¡± ¡°I...I didn''t know that¡± ¡°Don''t worry I know that you tried to help me, is only that I couldn''t stop doing it, it brings me memories of one of my ex-girlfriends¡± ¡°Girlfriends? more than one?¡± ¡°I wasn''t a playboy but I have more experience in relationships than most in our class would have¡± ¡°I will believe you¡± ¡°Thanks, well she was an exchange student living in the city where I lived, we know each other in a museum¡± ¡°That sounds romantic¡± ¡°None a bit, in a corridor we hit each other while we were running and the momentum made us almost damage a famous painting, so we were thrown out of the museum and prohibited our entry for a month¡± ¡°Wow¡± ¡°She was so angry with me that she tried to punch me in the face, I evade it, but it went to my stomach, lucky that didn''t go lower than that¡± ¡°Ouch¡± ¡°Yeah, so as an apology I invited her to eat, normally that would never work, but since I said that I was going to buy anything she wants, you know because I feel guilty, she took my words about it seriously about that and we go shopping¡± ¡°That''s strange, that you said that and that she accepted your offer¡± ¡°She told me that she had only a little over 6 four months of stay, I felt very guilty for that and I don''t know why she accepted, she never told me why, but that day I was like a mule, carrying her bags of painting tools¡± ¡°That sound harsh¡± ¡°It was, long story short, after that day we liked each other not as a couple but friends, sometime later we started going out as a couple. A month after we started going out we went to an aquatic park, I did the same ¡°boing~¡± with her there, that action was followed with a punch that loosened my tooth and made my nose bleed¡± ¡°You earned it, but that girl sure was violent¡± ¡°She only had a strong attitude, but I can swear I didn''t do that with perverted thoughts¡± ¡°Mmmmm, is that so?......Then why you did that?¡± ¡°Is a little embarrassing, when we were in that date in the aquatic park, I saw a couple of kids on top of balls while hugging them, they were going up and down while doing the same sound, ¡°boing~¡± and since I didn''t go with a ball I improvised and...kinda...well you know¡± ¡°That still sound pervert and the breasts of her were that big to do that?¡± ¡°I know, but that time I didn''t know, it was my first girlfriend and I disregarded the personal space since we were very close that time and yes they were that big¡± ¡°Still she sure was a violent girl¡± ¡°Nope, actually she was very cute, she only punches me like that three times, when we met at the museum, that time in the park and¡­...the last...is¡­...secret~¡± ¡°¡±¡°Whaaat?, please tell us~¡±¡±¡± Without noticing I was surrounded by all the girls in the bathroom [Keep talking about your ex, it is interesting] Not you too! ¡°Eh!?, you girls!?, since when!?¡± You stole the words from my mouth Yashima san, since when!? ¡°Girlfriends¡± ¡°Playboy¡± ¡°Boing~¡± Urgh, that hurts. [At least they are not being wary of you] ¡°I won''t say it¡± ¡°¡°¡°Please!¡±¡±¡± They keep begging me for more than an hour until I give in, well I only said it was a secret to make them more interested, to make an air of mystery, so it wasn''t a botter to tell them, but I won''t say all the story! ¡°Sigh, I will only say that it was because an ex-boyfriend wanted to made me jealous¡± ¡°¡°¡°Woooooooooooooooooooooooooh!!!!¡±¡±¡± I can see the yaoi word again. [That was interesting I want to know more but a little of suspense isn''t bad, now to work, remember to prepare for the noble kid that will come in two days] I know, I know, thanks [Tell all the story please!] NO! Chapter 6 In front of me there is a boy, no more than 13 years old, he has beautiful red fiery hair and crimson eyes, has clothes made with a luxurious looking silk, he is so beautiful that if he were to be in a street in earth in less than 3 minutes he probably would be intercepted by a producer to be an actor. [You know the outcome by only seeing his looks?, who were you before?] It was only an exaggeration, what matters is the paper with chinese letters on his face and the fact that he is crawling like a baby, but first I need to go to my room, we can talk while we go. [Alright remember to not let someone see you, still, how you did that?] Don''t worry about my skills, is near impossible to be found and to your question, is my cheat. [Cheat?] You know what is a cheat? [Yes, so how is a cheat the cause of this? In real life very few things can be considered a cheat since all counts, so, how?] This cheat is of the game I was, playing Martial Era and it was carried here. [Then, what it is?] Well first, Jin Chen wasn''t the only character that I had, I created an Onmyoji character when I was in need to a rest for the endless boredom that the repetitive quests given to Jin Chen. It was so fun that I went and maxed its level, his name was Lowrtax. [What a strange name] Try to create a new character in a game that was active for 2 years with a cool and original name, all the cool ones were taken already!, if I didn''t create Jin Chen at the beginning of the game she would have a strange name too! [...Anyway what kind of skills did that Lowrtax character had?] All the type of mystic arts that an Onmyouji could have. [That sounds amazing] It is, Martial Era is not the average cellphone game, it was more complicated and more varied, each sect has his separation of specialties, fire arts, water arts, earth arts, wind arts, lightning arts, holy arts and dark arts, an Onmyoji character can choose one and be a master of it. The same with the other sects, for example, the Samurai sect may be called Samurai, but all types of eastern type blades are there with different styles, the ninja can be a master of poisons or of kunias and more, Lowrtax was originally a master of the dark arts. [You mean that a character normally only can master one type of branch?] Yes and no, except for the sacred beasts sect, only one branch is available for free in all sects, for the others branches one need to pay with spirit coins, that can be obtained in-game events or by buying them, I did both with Lowrtax and Jin Chen, my ring have all the items of both that I bought before coming here, clothes, customs, equipment, weapons, accessories, money, food, potions, books, furniture, artifacts, music instruments, craft materials, talismans, etc, close to 8000 of the blocks of my spatial ring has all my items there, the rest is empty. [How much could you have bought, I don''t know how things work in your world, but I know that your parents would scold you if you bought so much useless stuff unless...by chance you were wealthy?] Yes, I was, on a level that I would be called filthy rich, but that doesn''t matter now. As I said, a character could learn of other branches with spirit coins, well more like the path becomes available with spirit coins and to unlock the skills one needs skill manuals and to upgrade the skills you need skill scrolls. Skill manuals and skill scrolls can be obtained with the branch quests that are only available with the first branch, another way is in a roulette that can be spun once per day without spirit coins and the last way to get them is by buying them with spirit coins. So yeah, I bought my way to master all branches of the Onmyoji sect. [That seems wasteful] It is, but for me it never was, since Martial era is a cellphone game the list of quick actions is limited to 12 in rows of three, making the players think in what is needed to have in the 12 slots for each quest or fight. In Martial Era a normal player has 20 active skills and 10 passive skills and since it is a game, it needs to have some balance, that''s why only some of the skills of all sects have really big differences, in the Onmyoji sect all of their branches have at least one debuff/buff type (is up to the arts), barrier type, AOE type, ball type, long range, middle range and short range type skills, 6 active skills and 4 passive skills for the basic type skills of the game and the rest are the branches type skills. That isn''t bad, but then there is the crest system, with that, the effects of the original branch of the character''s skills are double, the cost is reduced, casting and cooldown time are reduced too. If anyone compares one player that mastered all the branches with 7 players that mastered one each, you will choose the 7 since the effects of their skills are stronger, but I was a solo player and since there was an elemental damage with certain types of monsters I decided to do it no matter how wasteful it was.Support the creativity of authors by visiting Royal Road for this novel and more. [I understand all that, but I still have some questions] Feel free to ask. [What are the basic type and branch type skills and how can a skill be upgraded?] The basic skills are skills that all characters have since their creation, an example can be the counter-attack skill, is a skill that you activate before being hit, instead of the hit hurting you, the skill makes so that it can counter the hit and the damage goes to your enemy. The branch type skills are, as the name implies, the skills of each sect branch, an example is the Sacred Beasts sect, Jin Chen as a member of the sacred beasts, of the Seiryu branch have a passive skill that reduce the damage of the water elements to some degree, side note, at max level its reduction damage go to 90% each hit, all players that belong to the Seiryu branch have that skill, but the trick is that to upgrade skills one needed to reach a certain level, and as you know the Sacred beast sect has a big penalty in that regard, thanks to that I forget almost all of my skills I have until the last levels. [Interesthing and what is the crest of an Onmyoji of the dark arts branch?] It is a lotus flower, I researched that in the eastern culture the lotus flower is a flower deeply related to the spirit and the Onmyoji sect is focused on the intangible energy of Martial era world aka spiritual power, different colors of lotus flower for each branch was the crest of the Onmyoji sect, there were new lotus flowers in that world with their own meaning, mine is black or grayish dark more or less, that represents the impurities of the soul. [Is that s-wait a second!?, why I am so immersed in information that I could easily know by reading your mind!?, argh!.....I''m tired of my own stupidity, anyway what is the cheat?] Don''t be so harsh with yourself, One time when the talk was interesting I forgot that I needed to go to the restroom, I almost peed myself. [Pfff...Just...a moment...] ¡­...Anyway, the cheat is that Jin Chen has all the things that Lowrtax had, skills, crests, stats, etc....Oh!, we arrived, room sweet room~. [Imposible, how that can happen?] I know right?, it happened when an update appeared suddenly, the next time I logged on Martial era Jin Chen was my only character again and Lowrtax was nowhere to be seen. Then I play with Jin Chen while cursing that I was going go again with boring quests, but when I was checking my stats they were higher than I remember, there were more skills and my spatial ring had more items too. [That sure is a cheat] Yes, but now I need to think what to do with this dumb as a baby, boy. [One more question, I can see your status, exactly how much the overall stats are of a normal character?] It is 1,500,000, if you are wondering why the overall stats are less than 3,000,000 I dunno maybe it is because they added the stats Lowrtax had when the update happened, I was in the middle of a fight 4 vs 1 and the other players used cash items to debuff me, I know since I bought them too, that was a terrible situation...more questions? [One last question, what was the skill you used before?, The one that made this kid have the mind of a baby?] Damn, I forgot about this kid, for your question the skill is called F¨³b¨¤i, that is translated to corruption, if I remember correctly this skill is a debuff skill that reduces wisdom and Intelligence depending of your skill level, but I don''t understand what happened, I only wanted him to make a fool of himself when he is with the king, not a baby, what is worse is that the time effect of the skill should be over by now, but he is still crawling like a newborn baby. [I would try to inspect him but that is your doing, so it is up to you to fix it, have fun searching an answer~] You sly goddess!, what we do with this brainless baby!? [Kill it and bury it in a flower garden?] You sure don''t have respect for human lives...wait a minute why I am wasting so much time here. first I need to hid......I know the answer! [That was fast] It is simple, who would want a brainless 13 years old kid? [No one] Exactly and for that, I am going to go along with your plan! [Come on I know you can think something better than what I suggest] Yes, I can, but I don''t want to. [Why?] ¡­¡­¡­............ [Wanted or not I''m going in!] What?...!...What was that chill I felt!?...are you?...are you in my head!?...get out! [Now, what was that idea that you had~?, that spark that lit a few moments ago~?......found!...it?......Oh my] That''s why I really wanted to go with your plan¡­.And get out of my head! [I already did and I can see why now, it is really troublesome but you need to face them sooner or later] We really need to go?, in the first place, can I even go? [Yes, anytime you want actually] As I feared, my best option is going to that place, since how things are right now, this type of skill is very convenient, but to have to face them so early, I feel my stomach revolt, my heart throbbing faster than ever and my legs are trembling like no tomorrow. ¡°Hu¨ª ji¨¡ de l¨´¡± Reciting the chant while sending spiritual energy to my crest I opened a dimensional rift, in that rift I could see a vast plain, in that plain farther away than I was, a big mountain where ancient chinese like buildings are situated, with the sight of this body I can see with clarity what was there, a little group of people, mostly older people, doing chores, but then they notice the rift and started to bow. [I wish you good luck] Why you are not coming? [Are you crazy?, the four sacred beasts would kill me; 4 gods vs 1 goddess is like suicide, at least with you they will be more lenient and if I go with you they surely are going to threaten me to hand you over them, I have my countermeasures about them doing so, but it is still scary. As a side note, remember that you gave yourself to me, I have the highest authority in any matter that means your freedom, in other words, whatever you do to be free I still have the last word, so don''t try anything funny.] Don''t worry I know what I was giving when I begged, no need to remind me and you are treating me good, so I have no reason to do so. [......Okay, again good luck there.] Thanks, well here I go. ¡°Long time without coming, I''m back Sacred beasts sect headquarters¡±
