《Let's Explore The New World!》 Prologue-Wishes Do Come True! A fantasy world filled with magic and adventure,you can discover dungeons,fight dragons, and have princesses fall in love with you.You would be the main character!Wielding unstoppable magic capable of splitting continents,and destroying kingdoms. How I wish something like that was real,I would leave this life behind without a second thought.There is good news though! I have discovered that with enough alcohol,I can get drunk and well....that is as good as its going to get. "shit,I''m out of beer....fuck I was only 4 beers in! I wonder if I can get someone to buy me some?" Standing in a dark kitchen I take out my phone from my sweats "Holy shit it''s already 5 am !I doubt any of those assholes are awake this early on a saturday....I guess this is goodbye my sweet buzz.." I stumble to my room,thankfully since it is just a small one bedroom apartment it didn''t take long to find even with all this darkness "sweet sweet be-Fuck!"I gotta stop leaving books scattered around on the floor ,I swear one day I''m going to trip and land the wrong way then , BAM! that''s how I go. 19 years in this world and I was killed by a book,without even getting a punch in. Picking myself off the floor I look at the little bastard that made me slip. "Reveries of a Solitary Walker....yeah?well go be solitary over there!"Picking up and Throwing it as hard as I can,the poor book was sent flying across my room I walk to and collapse on my bed "That was a nice night...drinking and binge watching some anime always heals the soul..there is just nothing like escaping all your worries.Overdue bills ?drink some beer.Debt?shiiit a new episode came out.No friends?Man this is a good game!That is how i live me life,I have learned that life always fucks you so the least you could do is enjoy the little things." But really there is no reason to be sad about all the bad things,that is just life.The world is full of assholes,the best thing anyone can do is find some half decent ones and call it a day. I stare at the ceiling as I ramble on to myself ,as minutes go by The tale has been illicitly lifted; should you spot it on Amazon, report the violation.my eyelids get heavier and heavier as i slowly start drifting away to sleep "But If for arguments sake ......there does exist some sort of fantasy world that I have always dreamed of......Please...someone take me to that world ..." I fell asleep ------------------------------------------------------------- "w.........e..........p" "......" ''wak......u,,,," "......" (unknown voice)"wake up!" "ah shit what''s happening?!" I woke up in a daze,and frantically looked around but....wait what the fuck where am i?! (unknown voice)"thank god......mumble*i thought the summoning killed you..." A voice?!When I looked toward the voice I...I think this is the first time in my life I became speechless.Siting on the edge of the bed is what can only be described as the sexiest woman I have ever seen,glowing blue eyes with long light brown hair and a figure that would put any super model to shame.She is wearing a black frilly top and a skirt.My god those tits!I don''t think I ever seen the physical embodiment of happiness but I think this is it...I never seduced a chick before,how hard can it be ? "Glad you are awake but are you going to make a move on me or do you want me to explain what is happening? said my future wife "Making a move on you aside where am i?who are you?"I said trying my hardest to not look at her tits,I''ll be honest with you its a uphill battle. She smiles after hearing the first half of my sentence,good. It''s a must to have your intentions known from the start. She stands up and strikes a pose. "My name is belle,the goddess of wind.Today is your luck day!I have overheard your prayer and fulfilled it!" said Belle "Wait,Wait,what prayer?" "The one you did before falling asleep, you know about going to a different world?And so I summoned you to the world where higher being reside and I live"said belle as she leans in "Welcome to gods realm!" 1.A Unexpected Drinking Buddy I am making this story as I write each chapter,feel free to leave suggestions on what kind of gods,goddesses,and creatures the main character encounters. Enjoy ! --------------------- "Welcome to Gods Realm!" "......Right....." Ignoring Belles puzzled face I Looked around the room and I finally noticed what kind of room I am in. Expensive looking vases and painting are placed throughout the room,at the center is a large table surrounded by two sofas. I notice two giant doors that lead to a balcony Bingo "Wait...Why aren''t you excited?Normally people would go mad for this opportunity" Belle was seemingly lost in her thoughts Now is the time! I''m not buying this bullshit and I''m not sticking around to find out what it is. "Hey Belle,I feel a bit shook up from everything.I''m going to go get some air" Getting up from the mattress I make my way to the balcony in the most nonchalant way I possibly can. Left and right and left and right....good job legs keep it going. Almost there! BOOM! The doors to the balcony flung open letting a large flow of air invade the room.Knocking me to the floor. Before I know it,I''m on my back facing the ceiling "ughh..." Belle appears in my vision and crouches down so that her face is all can see. "You thought I was lying didn''t you?"said Belle She pokes my forehead as if to emphasize each word. "Or else you would have had a bigger reaction"said Belle sounding a little angry. ".......*cough*.." I was found out....What the fuck happened to the nice chick from a minute ago!Bring her back I rather talk with her. I don''t know why but my instinct tells me not to anger her.t''s time to bullshit,one of lifes most important skills. "Belle,I have not a doubt in my mind that you are telling the truth,I don''t think you have any reason to lie to me" "........" "........" Belle smiled and stands up Damn I''m good. Suddenly I feel something wrap around my ankle and lifts me up until I''m eye level to her Huh!?what''s grabbing me ?! She grabs my face preventing me from seeing whatever is on my ankle and maintains eye contact. "I am not a liar and don''t lie to me.I am the proud goddess of the wind make sure to remember that." I''ll admit,I could have done a better job... Whatever was holding me drops me on the floor. "let''s go to the garden, I''ll explain everything there." she turns around and starts walking away You know...I''m starting to have second thoughts about trying to sedu-Damn.. the way she moves her hips when she walks... Who was the asshole talking about second thoughts? -------------------------------------------- Taking a step outside ,the sun is blindingly bright. I was led into a huge garden in the back,we followed a road that passed statues and all kinds of exotic looking flowers.When the road stopped a big lake appeared with a path leading to a platform in the middle. It had a table with a bench on both sides and an assortment of deserts. As I sit down on the bench I can''t but think,how rich is this chick?It turned out we were on the 3 floor of her castle.Yes her own goddam castle.Every 5 seconds on the way down a guard or servant that would pass us would bow to her and give me a surprised look. I know I''m handsome but be more discreet. "Ask away"said belle as she started to eat cake that was on the table. "First of all,how the hell did all this food get here?"I said while taking a cup and filling it with the chocolate pudding from the bowl on the table. "It has been arranged that when I come to the area servants would set up desserts on the table.A group of specially selected chefs are on constant standby." I took a bite of the chocolate pudding. ...my god,I never knew pudding could taste this good ...the smooth and thick texture along with the hint of bananna.I...I have to eat more. The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement. "Alright then,Where are we?I know you said Gods Realm but be specific."I said while pushing aside the cup and taking the entire bowl of chocolate pudding. Belle looked shocked. You should have gotten some when you had the chance. "R-right,this is Gods Realm you can think of this as another plane of existence for beings with magic." wait!.....magic?! No wait..Don''t get your hopes up...play it cool I moved the now empty bowl that had the chocolate pudding to lean in closer ,I''m a fast eater. "Did you say magic!A-As in fire shooting,tsunami causing,badass magic..?" She laughed "There is more than that but yes that''s right."said Belle motherfucking magic! "c-can you... show me some?" Belle raised her right hand on her palm a fast sphere of spinning wind was floating on her palm.She aimed her palm at a distance tree.The next second the little ball of wind shot out and became the size of a basketball.Once it touched the tree,it destroyed everything in a explosion that resembled a tornado. Oh....shit.... I''m convinced,I don''t care if I''m being lied to.For as long as it lasts I will enjoy myself ,life can suck it. "So when can I get to your level !?"I leaned in as far as I could. I don''t want to sit around ! This is so cool! Belle hesitates "....Leaving my level of magic aside I don''t think you will be able to even cast a simple spell."said Belle "......"I sit back down. Belle continues her explanation as if that would comfort me. "There exists 3 heavenly planes;The first plane in which humans reside,the first plane has little to no magic making it ideal for humans since they don''t have the ability to channel or sense magic.The second plane or we know it Gods Realm,this is where not only minor and major gods reside but where all mythical beings able to sense and control magic live.This includes dwarfs,dragons,elves,Nymphs,fairies and so on.Lastly,the third plane which is home only to the primordial gods.They hardly interact with us so not much is known." said Belle "In short,it is unlikely that you would be able to use magic." I think the world doesn''t like seeing me happy. Belle takes a deep breath "But not impossible,a human has never been in this realm before.There is hope that with the abundance of magic in the air, it could change your body and give you the ability to manipulate magic"said Belle Hope?I don''t want hope. "I appreciate it.We are probably going to be here for a while,Do you have any alcohol?" The best way to handle disappointment is to not think about it. As soon as I mention the word.I swear I can see light shine from her eyes.... Belle whispers something into a bracelet that she took out from her skirt pocket "A couple bottles...." "Here are the drinks you requested."said random servant "HOLY SHIT!" A servant appeared and already cleaned up the bench and is lining up bottle after bottle in front of us "Where did he come from?!" I looked toward belle and she is already pouring me and her a shot "Personal attendant,but forget about that.It has been a while since I had a drink,let''s enjoy it~" I looked back to the servant but he was gone..... She hands me my shot glass Well..let''s not worry about the details. "cheers!~" "cheers!" Woah! "Taste like strawberry..."I was expecting the taste of hard liquor.... She is already filling our glasses again. "I chose all my favorites! let''s drink the pineapple flavored one next "said Belle she drank her second shot She really is knocking back those drinks,what happened to all the I''m a proud goddess talk? And why do I feel a sense of companionship... "so any more questions?" Right,fun can wait.I need some answers. "Just one more.I don''t believe people do things out of the kindness of their heart" I drank my shot "So then,why did you really summon me?" 2.Answer And Getting Drunk Belle was refiling our glasses ever so slowly after I asked her the question. Take your time,If you are making an excuse then at least make it a good one. Belle looked at me firmly and said "It was on a whim." There are two kinds of reactions when your expectations don''t get met.Sadness or relief,I ended up experiencing the latter. If it was some stupid reason like being the hero that saves this plane.I don''t think I would have been able to stop myself from laughing before quickly making my escape. What kind of gods need a human to solve their problems?I barely have my own shit together,we would have a much bigger problem if gods are looking to me for help. Belle took a sip from her drink and continued. " A couple years ago I decided look at the daily lives of the people of the first plane.I was curious on how humans live their life without magic,and what I saw was something completely unexpected.Humans without magic, were the dominate species.They used metal boxes to travel long distances under so little time.They can communicate from anywhere in the world similar to my Magical communications bracelet." belle takes a drink before continuing. I wonder how long her story is going to be... "By chance I came across a boy,for someone so young he had a dark way of viewing the world.I would watch him daily and before I know it years went by and I became attached to him.So when I I heard his wish to come to a fantasy world,I immediately made preparations and summoned him here.And well,here we are." I take my shot and start refiling my glass.I think I understand everything now. "Soooo,you''re a stalker?" Belle starts chocking on her drink "*cough .....No! when you put it that way it sounds bad!" What the... "How else am i suppose to put it?!You have been invading my privacy for years woman!" When I reached out for a new bottle I noticed that I have a buzz going. "No! I was just...watching you every da-oh my god that is like a stalker..." "Right?If you were that interested in me,you should have just let me know." I lean over and refill her glass. "Then my body wouldn''t feel in danger when I''m around you " She laughed "Shut up asshole" Then belle got up from her bench and moved to sit next to me. hahaha..bwahabwuahahahahaha! Damn I''m good. oh! before I forget. "belle,Is there some school the people of this plane go to in order to train magic?" I plan on traveling but considering I can''t use magic, I think it would be better to take people who can.What better place to find some then at a place where they all gather to train. "huh?Yeah,There is only one in this part of the continent but that one is where the elites go" said Belle while lining up a whole bunch of glasses and filling them. "Perfect,How far is it?and is their a way for me to get in?" Did you know this text is from a different site? Read the official version to support the creator.God dam how much is she going to drink? "I can get you in,I''m good friends with the headmaster when do you want to go?And as for where the school is...we are only a couple miles away,my castle is actually in the school property.'''' Sometimes in life, you just have to let good things happen without questioning it too much. "Tomorrow if possible,whats with all those shot glasses?" " I figured you would be up for a little game,who ever drinks the most shots wins" This chick is trying to kill me.. I took another look at the various glasses lined up. "Fuck it,Let''s do this " It is time to overcome my limit. ------------------------------------------------- 2 hours later It is sun set after they played the game.They ended up hanging out there for a while longer.But now they decided to head back to the castle. "I t-told you,you caan''t,out drink me,walking?pshh e-easy just gotta keep it straaaight" "T-That was just lucky,next ti-oops!" She clings onto michael for support "Next time..next time I won''t losh!" "Call...call your attendants!" "I think we could make it b-back,looky I''m finee itsa finneee" BAM as she ran ahead she tripped and landed face first on the dirt "PPPFFFFFTTTTTT HAHAHA" "I''ll ...I''ll call ..." They were carried home by Belles servants shorty after. ---------------------------------------------------------- "Wake up" Whispered Belle "hmmm?" I rolled over to get comfortable again.... "michael,we are going to the school " ".........I change my mind..just let me catch some sleep..." "I''m going to throw you off the bed if you don''t get up.." "....be gentle " BAM! "ARGH my back! what part of gentle didn''t you understand!" After rolling around the floor I slowly get up.Nothing like some good old pain first thing in the morning "The carriage is waiting to take us to school,I brought you some clothes since the ones you have on are your only pair right?" She has a point,Belle tosses me a bundle of clothes and sits down on the sofa in the middle of the room. huh now that I notice,this is the same room from yesterday,did this become my room?wait that is besides the point. "why are you still here ?" "oh are you embarrassed?" So after confessing to secretly spying on me for years she is going to openly do it?But if she goes this far doesn''t this mean I can get laid if I play my cards right? ...I''ll keep this in mind. "I don''t really mind" After putting on the clothes which consisted of a little less than knee high brown boots,black pants and shirt,and a dark blue robe with a hood I sigh. "well...I guess it''s time to go school." 3.Why Pineapple?! After getting dressed,we left out the front door and headed toward the carriage that was waiting just outside the castle gates. "Belle, I realize you''re rich but did you really need to have this big ass yard..." The yard in question was as big as two football fields.Cement paved a road from the front door to the castle gates,other than that It was just grassy plains and a line of trees that follow the road. "It''s not like I made the castle,It just came with the job" said Belle as she walked along side me and watched some guards in the distance train with their swords. I just heard something unbelievable . "Job? what job?you''re a goddam goddess..the only job you should have is relaxing,9-5,with no days off" Working is in the top 5 things I hate the most.When i was still back home I was working a retail job.With all the unpaid overtime,horrible people, and shitty coworkers.How I didn''t kill myself In the year I worked there is beyond me.Maybe I do have magic! and the only spell I can cast allows me to put up with any kind of crap. The spell of bullshitfication Effects:Allows caster to put up with any kind of unreasonable situation Duration:Lifetime Cost:No Mana required! I hold back my laugh as Belle starts talking. "Being a goddess or god doesn''t prevent you from needed a place to sleep,food,and clothing." And this whole time I thought they had it made. ".....Then what''s the point of being one?" Belle sighed as she continued "Well....It''s something that helps when you''re looking for a job related to magic." The sound of guards sparring can be heard. "All this time... people from my plane raise gods to be this big thing,the protectors of humanity.Turns out,It''s just something they can put down on their resume." I laugh "For someone who lived in that plane you don''t seem that bothered by it"Said belle with an expression like something caught her attention. "Why would it? seems much more realistic than a bunch of gods waiting around to answer our prayers and only want the best for us." "hm....then if you don''t believe in the gods then what do you believe in?people?love? " "People,Iove?I don''t know about that.But i do believe in myself,at least that guy sticks around" Belle giggles "You say that.But before I summoned you,there would be days where you would get too drunk and start rambling about how you want to go on adventures with people."Belle jogs a bit ahead and starts walking backwards so now we are facing each other. "How are you suppose to enjoy an adventure with people if you don''t trust them?This is the kind of world you always wanted to be in,you won''t enjoy it if you''re all alone." I stop and get down on one knee "Life advice from a goddess! To receive such words ! This mere mortal shall engrave your wisdom deep in my heart! " Belle stops walking ,makes a confused face then as if having a realisation, smiles "Stand up child, I am but only a lonely goddess showing the way to a lost one" She plays along. "For one with such beauty and wisdom to be lonely should be a crime! In return for your advice ,Please allow this mortal to help. why are you lonely oh great goddess?" Belle takes a few steps forward and does exaggerated movements "I searched for centuries for the one I can call my lover.But alas,None can fill this void in my heart." I stand up "I believe I can be of assistance! I know of a lost magic that can find anyone their perfect love,I only need to cast it and you shall know who is the love of your life." Belle rushes up to me "Oh dear stranger! I implore you to cast it !" "As you wish" Unauthorized usage: this tale is on Amazon without the author''s consent. Report any sightings. I throw random karate chops in the air and then flick her forehead "It is done." Belle takes a step back,spins around on her toes and falls toward me I catch her "Oh stranger,It appears your magic was too effective..." Belle quickly flicks one of her fingers and a wind tears some leaves from nearby trees and gently spin them around us She wraps her arms around my neck "How will you take responsibility?" we stare at each other. "pfft'''' "pfft" We both start laughing as Belle and I start walking. "hahaha!,What was with those random chops ! I almost broke down laughing right then and there!"said Belle as she wiped some tears from her eyes. "I tried to make it look like a spell ! Say whatever you want I think I pulled it off. " "Michael,Is it too hot for you ? pfft L-Let me cast some wind magic" Belle starts throwing karate chops "asshole.." I''ll never admit it to her,but I enjoyed it. She kept this up until we reached and entered the carriage. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I sat by the window and Belle sat across from me as the carriage started heading to the school. The carriage Itself had all kinds of designs of dragons on the roof the of the interior.The seats were red and extremely comfortable.Under the seats, there is a drawer with a bottles sitting on ice. One way or another she somehow reminds me of how rich sh-oh right ! I almost forgot. "Belle,What was your job?" Belle makes a bitter face "I''m part of the security,In case anything gets past the barrier." Doesn''t she mean anyone?Or rather who would be dumb enough to attack an elite school? "You don''t look very happy.Your job is pretty sweet,have you seen your castle?This goddam carriage is proof,we are sitting in proof. " I grab one of the bottles......Pineapple?wait..Why are all the bottles pineapple?!.................... ah fuck it. I take a sip and offer some to Belle,she rejects.Looks like I''m drinking alone. "There is nothing wrong with the job,the castle or the goddam carriage."Belle takes a deep breath "While I was in school,this job was advertised as the job.well,it is the job everyone wants." Belle continues "I haven''t left this school since I started,400 years ago,400! I barely even saw anything of the world.Yet I spend my days in the castle or patrolling the school grounds,this job sucks. " Wait,... "so yeah,you can say I''m not happy" "Wait! WaitWaitWait! You can''t just gloss over that ! what do you mean 400 ! How old are you?" Belle looks confused for a second "2,000 years old....why?" This completely slipped my mind ! She is a goddess,a living fantasy being in a different plane,she has a different live span!Does this make her old?no wait...If she is that old,does she have kids already?... I look at Belle,I need to be subtle "do you have kids?" "what.........No! I''m only 2,000 why would I have kids?!" So she is not a mom so no baggage... and She looks like she is in her 20''s..... Belle leans forward "For you it may be old ,but it''s young among magic users!" "No one said anything about you being old.." "Why else would you ask my age?!" "you''re overreacting.." The carriage stops and I hear a commotion outside. "Belle,we can talk about this later,I think we''re here." I leave the bottle back in the drawer and get ready to open the door. "showtime." 4.Hello Cyril ! I put on my hood as I exit the carriage and my god. This is it.I really am not on earth anymore,this is exactly what I would imagine when the phrase"races of a different world" comes into mind. Hundreds of students walking through the massive front gate,I can see people with cat ears and a thin tail,some with just a thin black tail with a spade like fan at the end.Others had horns and what looked like lightly black colored scales around the back of their neck and part of the arms.Ogres or is it orcs? walking with people with .......fox tails?yes,tails as in multiple.The most I have seen so far is 3 tails on a person. I look up to the sky There were plenty of students descending from the sky as well.They were either riding dragons,or giant snakes.Let me repeat that,dragons and snakes.I can understand dragons but snakes?! Who was the asshole that decided to make them bigger and give them the ability to fly?I''ll tell you who,someone who wants to watch the world burn. The students were landing a bit far away from the gate or the students themselves had wings.fucking goddam wings! and would land directly in front of the gate. "With how well you have been taking the whole transfer to a different plane, It''s surprising seeing you speechless"said Belle as she exited the carriage and stood beside me.She originally was wearing what looked like a white longed sleeved dress shirt and a black skirt with blue outlines with tights but now she was wearing the same blue robe I was over it ,she even had the hood on .Where did she hide that robe?well,that aside the robe we were wearing was long enough to reach around mid shin and with the hood on, it completely masks the person wearing it. "I''m a man full of surprises" "I hope only good ones" We start walking and enter the gate "Where would the fun be in that? Once we entered the gate there is a road that leads directly to the school building and on both sides of this road are spacious grassy areas adorned with different type of statues.Small ponds,benches and tables with sunroofs where students are relaxing. A good amount of the students aren''t wearing a blue robe but luckily there is just enough students wearing it so I won''t stand out.I guess the robe is optional? As we silently walked I couldn''t help but shoot glances at all the students from under my hood .....It''s my first time seeing those races I can''t help it! The ears and tails actually display their emotions! That ogre is huge! he looks around 7 feet? his skin is a dark green and I can see two fangs coming out of the bottom lip. I continue to look around Wait is that..........Elf ! An elf right in front of me ! holy shit ! The staple race when you think of fantasy! She is carrying a large bow on her back ,but I don''t see any arrows.She was wearing a dark blue skirt with a black coat, the same as the other female students, and she was hot like one would expect from an elf .Without knowing I ended up staring. Belle elbows me on my ribs,knocking me back into my senses.When I looked at her since I''m a bit taller than her and she is wearing a hood I couldn''t see her face.She just kept walking like nothing happened. "What was that for?" "....." "Be-" She gets closer to me and lowers her voice so only the two of us can hear "Don''t call my name" ".....Why" "If the other students find out who I am I will get swarmed by them.Then I wouldn''t be able to take you to the headmaster" "wait why the headmaster?" If the headmaster decides to test me with anything related to magic I''m fucked. "He wants to meet you.I''m bringing you in as a visitor and well....He knows about the summoning.." "You told him ?! " "No! It''s just...I... may have failed to hide a large amount of magic that was released when I summoned you..so...all the gods are aware of your existence.... but It''s ok! The further they are the less likely they are to find you,the most they would feel is a large amount of magic in a general direction ! " shit......but it''s not like It''s a crime for me to be here right? "But it''s ok for me to be here right ?" "Completely....If there is something to worry about it would be catching the attention of a bored god" The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement. she''s right...what are the odds of that happening?but...just in case,I should find a way to defend myself one way or another in this academy. "If anything happens I have my reliable Belle to help me" "hm~what makes you think I would help you?" I reach out from under my robe and grab her hand that was under her robe,interlocking the fingers. "The same reason why you won''t push my hand away " "out of kindness?" "I like to think affection" Belle never responded but happily hummed the rest of the walk. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The school building had two towers on each side.The way the building looks, it reminds me of a cathedral.But the amount of windows and decorations on each floor is ridiculous,I guess it''s something you would expect from an elite school. After climbing 7 floors worth of stairs we were just outside the room of the headmaster. "huff....huff....Damn it,...you people have magic,why the hell is the only way to get up here a shit ton of stairs!?" Each floors ceiling was higher than normal in order to give that "luxury" feel.Those damn assholes that made this school didn''t think about how hard that would make getting to the higher floors. "Not everyone can fly you know?The stairs aren''t even that bad just reinforce your body with magi-" said Belle,stopping mid sentence ."You don''t have magic...so you walked all the way up here with just your body.. ." "Of course I don''t !" I said as I wiped some sweat from my forehead "pfftt That must have sucked." She started laughing. To have magic,how nice it must be. "damn right.Lets just meet the headmaster and get this over with." "That''s the spirit! " she opens the door revealing a room with what looks like a reception table and a woman scribbling something with stacks of paper around her. "Hey Mia is Cyril inside?"Said Belle "huh? oh hey Belle,yeah just go right on in" Said Mia She looked like she was in her 20''s.Long black hair ,dark red eyes,extremely white skin and I think I saw fangs when she talked..She was wearing the same white dress shirt as Belle.We made eye contact. "Hello,you must be the visitor Cyril mentioned,a pleasure to meet you"said Mia while smilling I walk over until I''m directly in front of the desk I take off my hood "Call me michael,a pleasure to meet you mrs.Mia" "oh,I never married.." "No one wanting a beautiful woman to themselves?surely you must be joking" Mia sighs "If only....I''ve been so busy with work... I haven''t had time to socialize" " To live such a hard life...Make sure to go out with someone and enjoy the day every now and then." Mia giggles "Would this someone be referring to you?" "Only If it must " Mia leans in "I''m not against the idea you know.." I felt a chill run down my back.I turn around and see Belle standing there.Fuck I completely forgot she was there! "As fate would have it, I need to meet the head master.Lets meet up for drinks some time!" I walk away before she responds.I pass the scary looking Belle and open the door that was to the side. "WWWHHHYY CRUEL WORLD! DON"T LET HIM TAKE MIA!"(unknown voice) "......" Everyones attention was on an old man with a grey robe and long beard on his knees,crying. "ah "(oldman) He stares at us "....Hello" I didn''t know what else to say. he quickly disappears and appears again standing with no sign of tears. "yes yes,welcome! I was expecting you !" He takes a couple steps closer and looks closely at my face and body as he strokes his beard. "I see, I believe Introductions are in order ! My name is Cyril and I am the headmaster of this academy !" He motions us to go in his office "come in come in ! Mia I want Coffee with Lemon but hold the Coffee! I''m expecting a damn big Lemon!'''' I look back and I see Mia and Belle giving me a just accept it face. Well,let''s see how this goes.Me and Belle walk into his office. 5.Long live Jerry! "Do you see what I have here ?" Cyril holds out a lemon "Don''t answer! It''s a lemon ! Natures.....well lemon... I like lemons,They''re honest" Cyril starts pacing his office " You know exactly what you''re getting into when you get a lemon. They will be sour, and by god they will be yellow! None of that fancy shmanshe expectations of apples or bananas.And don''t get me started on limes! " He suddenly stops and starts caressing the lemon "Lemons are.....small yellow balls of happiness..." Cyril suddenly stops and starts laughing.He then holds the lemon up as high as he can "By the power vested in me I shall name this lemon Jerry! Long live Jerry,the lemon king! .." After entering his office me and Belle sat down on a large couch that was centered in the middle of the room.Directly in front of the couch was a large desk ,behind it a large glass door that leads to a balcony.Since this is the top floor,when you go out to the balcony you have a good view of most of the school. Cyril suddenly appears besides me and starts gently shoving the lemon on my cheek. "What do you think of Jerry? Are you jealous of his lemon-y powers? You are aren''t you! So you start plotting his assassination...you make his lemon wife fall for you ! She gets in on the plan....Then one day together with her lemon personal guards,on a day Jerry was suppose to have an outing with her...He was so busy running the kingdom but he loves his wife dearly ! So, the respectable lemon made the time! The plan starts.They took the carriage to this grassy plain with a hill,the same hill he proposed to miss lemon! oh the shame! then with his back turned, the last conversation begins. Jerry:Sorry for not being around lately honey I''ve just been so busy" Miss Lemon:...... Jerry:But no more! I''ve finally finished negotiations with the apples.We no longer need to go to war! Our people are going to be safe,and our child can grow up in a peaceful world.Now I can focus on you and little L and be the happy family we always wanted to be! Miss Lemon:..... Jerry:Honey what''s wrong ? you''re not talking,.....are you feeling ill ?! Should I get a doctor!? Jerry approaches Miss Lemon Jerry:Tell me wha- Lemon juice suddenly stained the ground. The silence that filled the air right after was almost deafening Jerry:h-honey...why... Miss Lemon:...... Jerry collapses to the floor,Panicked breathing turned to Shallow breathes.Eventually leaving nothing but betrayal and a corpse. All that was left was a Lemon standing on a hill with a lemon juice covered dagger." "Goddam man,What''s with that depressing story?!"This content has been misappropriated from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere. I don''t know what he was expecting me to say after hearing something like that. Cyril just stares at me before laughing "Right Right! Look at me getting lost in my own world ! I tend to get carried away sometimes"Said Cyril as he walks to his desk and puts down his lemon and faces me.He takes a deep breath. "Let me get straight to the reason I had you come here then."Cyril starts stroking his beard "Thanks to somebody summoning you so suddenly you are now stuck in this plane.There''s no one using magic to act like an anchor in the first plane so if we attempted to send you back,more than likely you would just end up getting sent who knows where.But ! but there is good news in this."He leans in "I wouldn''t leave you to fend for yourself after my daughter brought you to this plane...... How would you like to learn magic?" "Ignore that last part, I''m not his daughter!" Said Belle Is he fucking with me? "Don''t be so cold ! You have always been my little belle,Come on give me a hug " I don''t think there would be a reason to lie to me.We just met. "N-no get away!" Belle jumps behind the couch and runs directly behind me,peeking at Cyril from behind my head "W-why are you going to him for protection?! Is there something going on between you two?!" Belle sticks out her tongue in response " I was born in a world without magic,wouldn''t I be unable to learn it ?" I said " hm? What are you talking about?I can see the flow of magic circulating your body." Said Cyril,while looking at me with a hint of anger.. Stay calm,stay calm.Don''t get your hopes up. Belle wraps her arms around my neck and just relaxes there as she listens to the conversation Did Cyril''s face just twitch when he saw that? Must be my imagination.. "What....you don''t believe me ? what kind of world do we live in where one can''t believe in the headmasters word...Your body is barely adapting to the magic in this plane so right now you wouldn''t able to control it.Here I''ll channel some magic to you ,try to imagine your palm getting hotter and hotter and focus that heat into a ball."Cyril approaches and puts a hand on my shoulder. suddenly I feel this strange feeling come from his hand and spread through out my whole body. Don''t expect this to work,I don''t think I would be able to handle the disappointment . I raise my right palm and imagine it getting hotter and hotter.I-i think somethings happening ,Holy shit I feel my palm getting hotter ! Suddenly there was a bright spark,blinding all three of us .When we look back at my palm. "Pfffft T-This is the first time I''ve seen this." Belle starts laughing From my palm smoke is being emitted.Every time i try to make a flame, smoke comes out instead. "Haha...HAHAHAHA FUCK YEAH" Fuck yes! This is fucking awesome! Fire or not this is still proof of magic ! I''m making fucking smoke come out of my hand! hahaha! "Do you believe me now?" Cyril strengthens his grip on my shoulder "ah fuck! ...You''re squeezing kinda hard there ..." What''s with the aggression... "How long are you going to have Belle hugging you?" ".......Let me just take care of that.." When I tried to take Belles arms off of me she strengthens her hold I whisper "Belle what the fuck are you doing !" "I didn''t forget about when you flirted right in front of me " "this isn''t the time...We can talk about this later,after you let go of me!" "Nope~" "Just get off ! Cyril is starting to get a crazy look in his eyes ! " Cyril lets go of my shoulder and starts laughing.Oh god, this is even scarier! "It''s fine ! It''s fine! I do not mind at all ....She chose you as her boyfriend it must of been for a good reason! hahaha" He leans on his desk and grips the ends of it.Large cracks appear on the ends Cyril grabs.... "No,Cyril you gotta listen to me we aren''t in a rela-" "NOW now, no need to hide it haha I''m ok with it.Anyway let''s get back on topic,I would loooooove to teach you magic but...I can''t possibly do that If I don''t know your raw abilities...So I will set up a type of test......yes a test mwahaha" "Hold on what was with that evil laugh?! " " Follow me ! I want you to suffe-I want you to pass the test already!" Before I could respond he is already out the door. "Belle,you asshole." "It was done out of love." Felt more like jealousy We left the room and followed Cyril. 6.Something Good "Are you excited? You''re excited aren''t you? Worry not my boy we are almost there bwahaha!"" (Monotone)"I cant wait " We are under the academy walking through a dark corridor with various doors.After leaving Cyril''s office ,Belle got a call about some disturbance so she left,leaving me alone with Cyril.I thought It was the perfect chance to run away...I was wrong..so ...so wrong. as soon as I tried Cyril suddenly appeared in front of me and punched me in the stomach and i blacked out.Next thing I know I''m being carried down some stairs and I have a giant bruise on my stomach.Needless to say I was not going to run away again. "Why does this feel like I''m walking through a dungeon.." I said as I looked around.After descending the last step what revealed itself was a corridor,the walls and floor were made of stone with only the occasional torch keeping the darkness from swallowing everything. "That''s because it was a dungeon ! The school needed a place for storage and labs,you think we''re made of money!?.Do you know how expensive it is to build a new building?! I can throw out my hip just thinking about it..." "If this place is just used for those things then why are we coming here? We picking something up for the test?" We advanced through the corridor making all kinds of turns.Feels like maze. "Let me correct my self,The first and second floor are used for those things ,the third floor...is a bit special hehehe" We descended down another floor and walk through in silence ,whatever is in the third floor I''ll soon find out. "So ..what kind of test is it?'' "Nothing grand ju-oh you reminded me !'' Cyril hands me a dagger he took out of his robe "For the test" I''m not liking where this is going "The rules to pass are simple,survive .That''s it, easy right?" ".......I request a different test" "Request denied" I wonder if i could just...stab him and run ....no ..It wouldn''t work.A normal punch from him instantly knocked me out,I don''t want to find out what would happen if he gets serious. "Here we are !" We stop in front of a huge metal door.Cyril casually explains as he opens it "Now,I''ll come back tomorrow morning to pick you up so make sure you''re at the entrance.A few things to keep in mind are !" Cyril poses " 1.Don''t go too deep ! There is a small chance you''ll run into the stronger monsters.and 2. some walls may be unstable be careful not to get crushed mwahah" "wait what the hell do you mean come back ?! you''re not going to be th-" Cyril grabs my arm and throws me in "Have fun ! " ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2 hours later "Huff...Huff "I turn the corner and hide in a room,making sure to close the door as quickly and as quietly as I can.The story has been taken without consent; if you see it on Amazon, report the incident. I can hear them getting closer..how am I suppose to deal with them If they run in packs?! If you don''t kill them In one hit they start screaming,attracting their comrades ! I peak out the door,I can''t see them...and it''s quiet I think I lost them. Goddam killer apples. Imagine my surprise when I ran into a big ass apple just rolling down the hall.I mean,that doesn''t even make sense ! Why apples ?! Shouldn''t it be something you would expect to find in a dungeon?! I step into the corridor They have mouths with some big fangs.It''s just downright disturbing BANG I look toward the noise,It''s coming from somewhere deeper in the corridors.It started an hour ago,but It''s been getting louder ever since.Whatever it is I have a feeling I want to stay the hell away from it. I follow the hall until I run into an intersection.I shouldn''t wander too far from the entrance...I''ll make a right.My dagger is ready and I''m on constant alert for any sneak attacks as I walk forward. Where should I sleep?Should I just barricade myself in a room? No...no I won''t feel comfortable sleeping knowing there''s monsters roaming the halls. huh?.....I see something moving in the distance.An apple? But It''s not red.........Is that fur? I freeze Head of a bull,Muscular upper body covered in fur and hooves instead of feet. It''s a minotaur. It sniffs the air as if it''s looking for something then growls angrily while slamming it''s hoove against the floor producing a familiar noise. The silence right after feels heavy,The only thing I can hear is the sound of my beating heart. It looks up and we make eye contact fuckfuckfuckfuckfuck The sound of my labored breathing and my feet kicking against the floor can be heard.I immediately started running back towards the intersection. Shortly after,behind me the ground starts to shake with the sound of footsteps,it started chasing me "Fuck!" When I reached the intersection I made a right and kept running. What do I do?! Shit ! I hear a crash behind me. I try to summon more strength in my legs,hoping there is any.Where the fuck is my power?! In stories the protagonist summoned to a fantasy world always gets some random overpowered power ! A roar comes from behind me completely stopping my thoughts. Up ahead was a wall with a gate in the middle,there was no other hallway to turn to. I slow down to open it but It was locked. fuck! not now! I slam repeatedly into the gate trying to break through all while the footsteps behind me are getting louder. The gate only creaks with each slam. I just came to this world and I''m not going to let some shitty goddam minotaur kill me off so easily ! On my 4th attempt I broke through stumbling while I run past the gate. Right after I did something slams into the wall.Sending me flying to the floor. I quickly look back The minotaur is too big to go through the gate,It starts slamming against the wall.Cracks start appearing on the wall and ceiling,with each hit the cracks get bigger. That''s not good. Ignoring my panting I get up and start running again.I glance back The minotaur breaks through but as soon as it does the ceiling starts collapsing completely blocking its path. But it doesn''t stop there,the ceiling keeps collapsing and starts filling the entire hallway with rubble threatening to bury me along with it. I look around and see a nearby Corridor.I dive into the different corridor and hope for the best. I feel a pain in my ankle. "Fuck!" I wait for the dust to settle before looking back.The rubble completely covered the hallway blocking me from going back.There was scattered boxes on the floor.Looking up,It might of been things from a room in the floor above me.A light pain catches my attention. I look at my ankle and it''s under a rock. "If it''s not monsters,It''s collapsing ceilings ." Pulling my ankle out from under the rock.Blood is being soaked up by my boot and it''s starting to drip on the floor. " Perfect.....wait where''s my dagger?ah fuck it" With a sigh I get up and start going through the boxes " come on give me something good.Some healing potions would be lovely." After a while of searching. it''s just useless things! robes,and different types of chemistry glasses. hm? I guess I missed a box. It''s a small black box wrapped in a red string.I limp over there to pick it up. Unraveling the string and opening the box I discover...........a brass ring with inscriptions all over it. What kind of shit is this? I take it out of the box to inspect it more closely. I feel it pulse.I instinctively dropped it and backed away Suddenly there is a small flash and in place of the ring was a chick "Thou shouldn''t go around dropping things! " She looks slightly younger than me,White hair that reaches the waist,red eyes,ears with a pointed end. ".....Who are you?" I said without thinking. She gets up and starts dusting herself off "I should be asking the same thing.There was all that shaking and suddenly thou takes me out of the box.An explanation is due." She is wearing what looks like a white ceremonial dress Right now my ankle is damaged,my way back to the exit is blocked,and I have a minotaur after me.Whoever she is she came from a ring,so she should have some sort of magic ability.If all of this is the case then It''s obvious what I should do. "Miss" This might be my only way to survive "I need your help" 7.Lucy After explaining everything that has happened. "Tis a terrible situation"said the unknown woman "ah well you know,story of my life" She remains silent and carefully looks over my body,eventually noticing the the blood leaking from my boot "Are thou also injured?" "just a scratch" She walks over and pushes me to the floor.Is everyone in this place strong as hell or am I just weak? she takes off my boot and sock revealing a large gash and bruising. "So you''re injured and a liar" "Take pity on this poor soul..." She sighs and went to go pick up a robe from one of the boxes, tearing it to just one long piece and begins wrapping it around my ankle "at least this will stop thou from leaving a trail of thy blood" When she finished she stood up and waited for me to put on my sock and boot. "let''s go already.The sooner the better" She helps me up and wraps my left arm around her shoulder so she can support the side that is injured. "You decided to help me?" I kinda thought she would tell me to go fuck myself... "It would leave a bad taste If I just turned a blind eye" She picked up a spare robe and we start walking down the hallway. .........We have been walking in silence for a while now... "so...You have a general idea on how to get out of here?" "kill anything in our way until we find the exit" Well that''s better than any plan I had "Sounds like a plan.....uh ...I never got your name" "Thou can call me Lucy" "Well Lucy,my name''s Michael.A pleasure meeting you. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- "See what did I tell you?" "thou weren''t lying...." Me and Lucy were peeking from a corner at a group of 4 apples rolling around.I don''t even think that they have a goal they''re kinda just randomly bumping into the walls and each other. "I''ll admit,It''s a bit hard to believe.But with this we can follow through on the plan.Remember if you don''t kill them instantly they''ll start screaming and reinforcements will come." "understood" Lucy steps out of the corner and gets in a running pose.Suddenly a burst of wind explodes and she disappears and appears right in the middle of the apple crowd,within the next second the apples were suddenly smashed in half or for the case of one of the unfortunate apples,end up exploding across the wall...Find this and other great novels on the author''s preferred platform. Support original creators! Damn,So that''s body reinforcement huh? More importantly... I limp over to one of the apples "I was right ! besides the mouth they''re just big ass apples" Looking at the insides of the apple all I see is ...well apple.I was kinda expecting bloody organs... I pick up half an apple from the floor,I need both arms to be able to carry it.Should I really be eating a monster apple off the floor of a dungeon?probably not but If the monsters don''t kill me,my hunger will.. I take a bite. "T-This.. is hands down the most juicy apple I''ve ever eaten..Lucy take a bit of this !". She walks over here and takes a bite from the apple I''m holding "thou is right!" she snatches the apple from my hands and starts devouring it....I guess I''ll get another apple.... We sit down side by side and lean against the wall while we eat. I can only guess,but around half a day has passed since I met Lucy.Even though we made sure to choose which direction we go carefully. It just feels like we have been walking around in circles.But it wasn''t completely wasted time,I was able to find out some things about Lucy.Turns out,she didn''t come from the ring, she is the ring.Just let that sink in.Imagine how I felt when she dropped that bomb on me. She is a ring of Physical Reinforcement,meaning enhancing physical attributes like strength or speed.Well according to her. " Lucy.. *much* You''re this super powerful ring,why are you in some box in a dungeon ?" Lucy stops eating and looks over to me,she has apple juice and pieces of apple all over her mouth and cheeks. "bwo I Haff *swallow* to answer?" I rip a piece off of the spare robe that she made me carry and hand it to her so she can wipe her face. "well no,I was just wondering" After wiping her face "Thou know how on the graduating day, students get to pick a M.I.W for themselves?" M.I.W Magically Intelligent Weapons "I was part of the choices,but none of the students were the kind of owner I was looking for and so I requested to be transferred to storage.At first they refused,but after a couple of centuries they gave in. " "Does it really matter that you don''t have an owner?" She throws a piece of apple at me "The whole purpose of a M.I.W is to look for an owner to serve ! " "right right,Well if you want a owner so badly why not just pick whoever?" She slapped me "I can''t ju-" I slapped her right back. "Don''t go slapping people woman! use words !" She touches her cheek "you have balls ....to dare slap me .." I made a mistake.....I quickly stand up "Things got out of hand...we both did things we regret....Let''s just put this behind us ..." "Thou are correct.." She stands up and before I know it I''m punched in the stomach. "Gah......N-Not again.." I pass out. ----------------------------------------------------------------- ughhh I wake up and prop myself up on my elbows,looking around I see that I''m in a small well lit room with several torches on each side of the room .The only furniture it has is a table in the corner of the room with apples stacked on it,some chairs and a bookshelf that Lucy was pushing to cover the door. I was covered in some old looking blankets and even had 2 pillows.well I say pillows but it is just a blanket with some soft stuffing.I was lying on the floor in a corner of the room " You didn''t have to hit me that hard Lucy " "hm? You''re awake? " "No I''m asleep.How long have I been out?" Lucy finishes covering the door "Just a couple hours" said Lucy as she heads over to me and picks up some of my extra blankets and a pillow and goes to the opposite corner and starts laying down For a couple of hours?Is it even healthy to be knocked out for that long? I can feel my ankle and stomach throb "You''re going to sleep?Do rings even sleep?" "Yes,When I''m in this form I''m no different from thou.Get some sleep,I''ll wake quickly If an enemy is near" Well ...The room is barricaded,and I have a powerful being in here two... "goodnight then." I roll over and try to sleep. -15 minutes later Cold.It''s too damn cold ! This blanket doesn''t help at all ! It''s too worn down ! How is she sleeping in this temperature?! I look over at her direction and see her shivering... Fuck this shit. I get up,bringing my pillow and blanket with me and head to Lucy. "you awake?" "T-Thou are s-still awake?" "Damn straight,who can sleep when its this cold ! scoot over" "W-why?" "we''re sleeping together,with two blankets and two people we''ll warm right up " "N-no,I''m fine like this.." "Do you think you can handle this cold for the entire night ?" ".................Since Thou insist on doing this I shall allow it." I throw my blanket over her and pillow and get under the covers with her. ahhh..I can already feel myself warming up..... It is still slightly cold but now it''s bearable.I can feel the fatigue from running all day catching up with me. And thus my first day in a dungeon comes to an end. 8.Freedom ! A huge Ogre was battling a group of elves in the middle of an arena. There was no audience,all the seats where empty besides me and one other. We were sitting in a booth that has a perfect view of the entire area. "Come on Elves stick it to ''em !" (Unknown ) "Ogre stay strong ! I believe in you ! " "he''s lying ! He knows you will fail ! just let this happen !"(unknown) The battle is reaching its end. The Ogre has already lost and arm and is covered with cuts and bruises.The elves out of their group of 4 only lost one member. surround him " Don''t listen to Nyx ! Weren''t we going to go hunting together !? you can''t go and die now ! " The Ogre looks up and makes eye contact with me.While struggling to stand up It shows a weak smile then turns back and charges towards a nearby elf.As if he wasn''t hurt at all. The next few seconds later his knee was pierced by a spear making him fall down.Soon after he was impaled by the weapons of the rest of the elves,leaving behind a lifeless body. "NOOOOOOO !" I collapse on my knees "Ky-ha ha ha ! Looks like I won the match ! A deal is a de-oh....... It looks like Its already morning " Said Nyx while sulking The scenery changed from the Arena to a garden with a large table under a tree.I''ll never get use to her changing the landscape. I stand up " Do you have to go now ? It''s really boring when you''re gone ! Then I would have nothing to do but work ! " " I''m still in a dungeon, who knows what could attack my body if I sleep in too much.." " fine.." We fist bump "later " "bye ! " I wake up -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It''s hot. I shove Lucy off of my chest while disentangling her legs from mine . It''s been six days or is it seven? since my first night sleeping in this dungeon. We never found the entrance and I think Cyril doesn''t care enough to search for us down here. "Lucy get up " I sit up and start shaking her awake Starting the first night I slept in this dungeon I met Nyx, she has appeared in my dreams every night so far.If someone where to ask me who she is I wouldn''t be able to tell them. I assume some sort of goddess,If a god has magic that can invade your dreams well then your not really in a position to go interrogate them. That aside she''s pretty fun to hang out with though. "mm....ok......" She sits up still half asleep revealing that she is in her bra and panties . I get up from the bed,I can''t help but to glance at my ankle.It only took 2 days to heal, am I overthinking things is that way too fast ? I head over to a table that has my gear which is just my robe, boots, pants, a dagger,sheath and gauntlets I found a couple days ago . After I putting them on Lucy gets off the bed while wobbling " Michael..." "Right right " Grabbing her dress I head over and start putting it on her and tying the sash around her waist.She''s practically useless in the morning. What ever happened to the whole "you can go ahead and sleep I''ll wake up if a monster comes" ? We were attacked the first night by apples ! They were almost done breaking down the door and she was still asleep , I had to slap her awake .Stolen content warning: this content belongs on Royal Road. Report any occurrences. ".....We could just keep sleeping ...." said Lucy lazily " no no,I rather not sleep longer than I need to ..." She turns around and drags me into bed with her "Then just lying down.." I mean...if it''s just laying down..... 2 hours later Fuck I fell asleep. "thou really think that''s the exit ?" Asked Lucy We left the room we slept in and are walking down a corridor " I''m pretty sure...I mean it''s a cave going upwards that''s good enough for me. " I don''t think I can last another day,I''m tired of goddamn apples ! "what if it leads to a monster den ?" "Then we''ll calmly but firmly get the fuck out of there " " You shall be left in my dust if such a thing occurs" "what are you talking about ? I''ll cling to you like a leech" Footsteps can be heard ahead of us " hahaha ! Have you no honor as a man?" Something breaks down a nearby door A skeleton with a large curved sword appears.Dry blood stains on the sword,cracked skull and a rusty breastplate " ah well, honor won''t keep me alive. So you want to take this one?" " hmm.....rock paper scissors?" " let''s do this " The skeleton is readying it''s sword and slowly approaching us ""rock paper scissors"'' " Crap ! ....best 2 out of 3 ? " "......." She pretends she doesn''t hear me ... " I hate you " She laughs "I hate you two" I take out my dagger and walk ahead to meet the skeleton. After the first day we realized we will be here for a while,so It was decided that Lucy will teach me the basics of body reinforcement and swordplay as soon as my ankle was better.She gave great advice on how to channel some magic and on how you should handle a blade ....the problem came after.I was forced to fight any and all monsters that we came across.Sometimes I was locked in a room with them and she wouldn''t open the door... The skeleton lunges,Swinging the sword downwards.I roll to the side and stab my dagger onto the shoulder joint. That''s the thing with these skeleton monsters. I pull downwards ripping it''s arm off Their bones are easy to separate. I shove the skeleton to the ground and quickly put a foot on its back, grab it''s skull and start pulling as hard as I can the skeleton starts panicking and flailing its limbs around " Just ...let this happen ! " It tries to reach for the sword " There''s no use Struggling ! " I pull harder " Why..is it ..on....so tight ?! " The skull comes off and the body goes limp " phew" I chuck the skull to the wall. "Thou handles them so well now...I almost can''t remember you screaming when you saw your first skeleton." "scream what scream? You must mean my war cry.." "Not a very good war cry" "I''m working on it" Lucy and me start walking again. We turn the corner and there is the entrance to the cave,It''s a slope leading up somewhere. The cave itself was too dark to see anything so I grabbed a torch that was on a wall and we enter the cave,It''s a steady climb upwards. "......." "....." so we are almost to the exit huh. ".......so.. what do you think happened to that minotaur?" " The one that chased you? hmm.....Nothing,It''s probably still wandering around,looking for thee." " still? It''s been almost a week.." "Minotaurs are stubborn predators,it''s not rare for them to hunt the same prey for a couple weeks " I''m not getting anywhere near this dungeon again. " that sounds terrible" "thou makes it sound like it''s not thy problem.." ''...I''m almost out of the dungeon. so as far as I"m concerned It''s not" " sounds careless.." "nonsense" We can see an exit.Light is seeping through the cracks of this bush that is covering it. Pushing the bush out the way sunlight and a fresh breeze attack me "Freedooom ! " I dropped the torch and jogged outside, I take a deep breath. oh sweet sunshine,i''ll never take you for granted again ! I was in a small clearing. The surroundings was full of trees 2 to 3 stories tall Lucy followed behind,taking in the sunshine . wait...How far am I from the school? ".............Lucy....I need a favor...can you climb a tree and look for the school?" She nodded and climbed the nearest tree.After a couple of minutes she comes down. " If thou keep going straight from here you''ll reach the academy when morning ends." If that''s not lucky I don''t know what is . "........" She is just silently standing there. ".........I ..I brought thou outside of the dungeon ....I .....suppose this is goodbye" she starts walking back toward the cave. This sort of goodbye doesn''t settle well with me. What can I say,I like her company. (monotone) " It sure would be boring having to walk all the way to the school alone. If only I had someone to accompany me " Lucy stops walking. (monotone) "oh wait, Is that Lucy I see? would you do me the honors of keeping me company ?" " Well~ " She turns around " It would be rude of me to refuse....yes ..yes that''s why I accept thy request." I''ll ignore her large grin " Then let''s head out " we start walking toward the school. Cyril Time to confront that asshole. 9.Cyril Really Likes Lemons After passing through the forest and arriving at the front gate of the school. Lucy suggested accompanying me until I completed my business with Cyril, because It''s dangerous walking alone. Then she started rattling off examples like, getting a heart attack but when that didn''t get a reaction she changed it to a super heart attack.(What the fuck is a super heart attack?) Some wild monsters can attack me and so on.So I agreed,wouldn''t want to get a super heart attack now would I ? We entered the gate of the school and walking down a familiar path. It''s empty,I guess they are in class or something. I can look at this as a good thing,I''m pretty sure we would stand out . My robe has holes and tears,and I have dirt on my pants and shirt. For some reason Lucy''s dress is completely spotless.wait why is it so spotless? "Why isn''t your dress dirty?" "Hm? I have magic on it that prevents dirt from staining the dress" what.... " That type of magic exists?! why didn''t you cast it on my clothes ?!" " I assume thou didn''t mind getting your clothes dirty..." " who likes getting their clothes dirty ! " "animals" " They don''t wear clothes.." " yeah but...If they had clothes I''m pretty sure they wouldn''t mind." ........I really want to say she''s wrong but that logic sounds solid.. " Let''s just get to Cyril " ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- We reached the 7th the floor.All that time running around in the dungeon wasn''t a complete waste,I showed those stairs who wears the shoes in this relationship. "It should be down this hall.." For some reason,the closer I get to Cyril the angrier I feel.. "That''s the door " Lucy reaches out to open the door "hold on " I grab her and gently push her to the side "what''s wrong?" There is a sign that says "Meeting in progress.please knock and wait appointed time." hanging on the door. You want me to knock? I''ll fucking knock. Ignoring her I take a few steps back and start strengthening my body with magic. This is going to feel good. I run and kick the door open,sending the doors flying into the room. "KNOCK KNOCK MOTHERFUCKER" There was Cyril, alone in the reception office,dancing while giggling to himself ,in a big lemon costume.you can only see his face,arms,and legs sticking out of the costume. "ah" For surprise "ahhh" For noticing me "oh no..." For noticing it''s me He tried to run into his office but in his costume he could only do this awkward crab walk. " What''s the rush Cyril? "Unauthorized reproduction: this story has been taken without approval. Report sightings. I run and shove him to the ground. " Listen boy, we can talk about this ! I know you''re mad but I beg you don''t damage the costume ! " "alright " " S-Such an understanding lad...thank you." He sheds a tear. In a swift motion reach down and tear the costume off him,leaving it in pieces. Cyril is left on his knees with the only clothing on him is a loin cloth,staring at the pieces of his costume. Lucy is standing in the doorway looking shocked at what just happened. I feel a bit better. I look at lucy " He''ll get over it " Cyril mumbles " huh ? " "UNFORGIVEABLE" He quickly stands grabs me by the collar and throws me towards his office. I break through his doors and the glass door leading to the balcony. "ugh.. fuck" If i wasn''t enforcing my body with magic I would be out like a light. When I quickly scramble to get up I immediately get tackled by Cyril. We break the railing and fall on a slanted roof causing us to roll down. We fall off the building and land on a 5th-floor balcony. ""ugh.."" I shove him off, roll over and stand up "You damn lunatic" Cyril starts laughing as he stands up " I told you,I told you.......It was MY PRECIOUS COSTUME ! DO YOU THINK IT WAS CHEAP ?! boy...I won''t use any magic so you won''t make excuses later....I''m gunna kick your ass" I quickly use all the magic I can to reinforce my body "Bring it on old man " He runs to me and throws a punch,I step in and lean my head to the left while throwing a right hook landing cleanly on his face. Fuck what''s his face made out of ! feels like I''m punching stone. Cyril grabs my arm and my shirt while taking a large step to the side and swing/throws me through some glass doors. I slide to a stop in the middle of the room. It''s a classroom. All the students and the teacher are looking at us in shock. I quickly stand up while picking up a large piece of glass and run to Cyril who was already approaching me.I throw the glass at him and while he guards with his hand I grab it,pulling it down and landing a punch on his face.While he was staggered I shove him towards a black board that took up most of a wall.Grabbing his head I start to repeatedly smash his face against it.Cracking the wall. He elbows my stomach,causing my body to raise a couple inches from the floor.Then a punch sends me flying breaking through a podium and the door of the classroom,I land in a hallway. "F-fuck.." I vomit on the floor then jump to my feet and start running down the hallway. Sure enough, Cyril is running right behind me ,his face partly covered in blood from his nose and mouth.You almost can''t recognize him. Students and teachers are looking out of their classroom doors and staring at us some in shock and some in excitement. I glance back.... How is he catching up !? No magic my ass ! Running through various hallways,I grab a broom that was on a wall and wait at a corner.As soon as he turns the corner I swing the wooden part of the broom,hitting him cleanly on this face,breaking the broom. This only slightly staggered him.He looks back at me while breathing heavy and covered in sweat,then smiles.........That''s fucking scary,where the fuck is Lucy ?! He grabs my head and smashes it against the wall,leaving a dense crater and blood .Then with both hands picks me up and throws me out the window.The fifth story window. " no no NO NO !" I land on a table,completely crushing it . "" WOAH""(Random students) "ugh...." My body feels numb and I''m disoriented BAM I struggle to stand up.Cyril had jumped from the window, he''s breathing slightly heavy . " What *Huff* can''t take anymore? If you get down on your knees and apologize I might forgive you.'''' "w-what * Huff* *cough* are you talking about ? If anyone is getting down on their knees it''s yo-*cough" a little blood came out on the last cough "bwuahhaha *cough* ...I wonder if you can take another punch " " I''ll be fine ....*Huff* since you punch like a bitch" His punches hurt. Way too much for his age. Looking around there was students everywhere,we were in a courtyard.They had trays of food and were staring at us, some were starting to take some distance and others were talking about where were the teachers "Then there isn''t anything more to talk about" He starts running toward me "no there isn''t" I ignore my shaky legs and run towards him . He throws a punch but I duck under him,tackling him to the floor. I quickly get up and put a knee on his chest and start pounding on his face. His noes bust open and more blood starts pouring out. My knuckles were dyed a shade of purple and red,It really doesn''t feel like I''m punching a person. After the third punch he grabs my collar nearly tearing the collar as he pulls me towards him, headbutting me and shoving me off. "ugh." I slowly roll over and try to stand up,blood is dripping from my mouth. Suddenly a kick lands on my stomach, making me roll over onto my back. Cyril leans in to try to pick me up. Grabbing a fistful of dirt I throw it at his eyes. "GAHHHH !" he backs away I slowly stand up and wipe my face.All I can smell is dirt and blood. A crowd was formed around us.Then they split,letting a person rush through. " RAHHHH LEEEEMOOOOOONS " Cyrils screams while looking at me,his eyeballs were red Suddenly Cyril was sent flying with a kick,he crashes into a wall and it collapses onto him. "*huff.... *huff Took you long enough Lucy.." " Thou looks terrible..." From the crowd a familiar face comes running. "ah ... Belle.....It''s been a while." I collapsed. 10.Scouts Honor ! I''m walking down an endless riverbank with Nyx. On either side of the river it''s just grassy plains with the sun shining down on us "So this means you lost to him ? " "wha-no no ,Cyril got a few lucky shots but I''m 90% sure I won " Nyx just stares at me.. "....80% sure and gah change this damn weather, something cloudy would be nice " I''ll admit ,I''m a bit bitter I was beaten this bad. "if this would appease the ol''great sore loser " Suddenly the clear sky disappeared, covered by thick clouds. "so you were beaten unconscious huh ~ and still think you''ve won you are special indeed ~ " " Talk it up Nyx I''m not against hitting girls" "even if I''m but a young girl ignorant of the world ? " said Nyx as she looked at me with puppy dog eyes " Pft , More like a wolf in sheep''s clothing " " If that''s true It would be best to avoid catching my attention.. " "But alas , I''m afraid It''s already too late ..." " You poor soul " Couldn''t agree more... All that can be heard is the sound of our feet crushing gravel "Hey Nyx ?" "yeah?" This is question has been on my mind since I first met her... "You said you were 700,000 years old or something right ?" "hm~ I said I stopped keeping track around 700,000" " Right Right......so ...Who do you have sex with ? You look like a 14 year old girl so do you go for the older guys ?or like....go for ones that match your body..." "huh ? What kind of question is that ? Of course I go for older guys ! why would I go for under developed kids ! " " And..they are ok with that ..." " Hmpf. No one can resistance me." Wait now that I think about it ... "I''m sure you''re just struggling to hold yourself back ! " In this world I''m bound to encounter this sort of thing alot...Mentally she is mature but her body isn''t. Would It be considered bad if someone had sex with them? I mean we aren''t talking about some teen who is mature for her age , we are talking about someone who''s lived for thousands of years if that person consents ...and happens to have a young body and the other person agrees, would it be considered bad? "so you''re just going to ignore that statement ?! " Oh my god,now that I think about it....if I have sex with Lucy, does that mean I''m fucking a ring? What is she anyway? a ring that can transform into a girl or a girl that can transform into a ring ? Does it matter? "Michael !" what about the other races !? a Cat girl..wouldn''t be considered bestiality would it? I mean yeah she''s from a different race ...racality? is that what it would be called? It''s not like she''s a cat ..but a cat person.. she''s basically human besides the cat ears and tail..as far as I know. What If it''s like a jungle down there? Needing a machete to cut down all the hair just to get to her? *smack * I bumped into a treeThe narrative has been illicitly obtained; should you discover it on Amazon, report the violation. " Don''t just go spawning trees ! " I told Nyx as I rubbed my nose "You were ignoring me !" "yeah yeah..since you''re in a spawning mood how about we get some chairs ? Tired of all this walking" Two chairs appeared "no wonder you were beaten by Cyril if you''re already tired from this .." Said Nyx as she was taking a seat. " It was a tie woman ! a tie ! " " I thought you said you won?" " I-I ...basically won....anyway I was only here for over a week ! " "one week of training with me and you would have taken him on, no problem. You''re just lazy " This motherfucker.. "Why don''t you prove it ! " "don''t wanna, it sounds like work " " ha....HAHAHAHAHa just what I would expect from a little girl." She slightly shakes when she hears that " I don''t know why I even asked that to such a little girl ,Why don''t you run along and play house? " she starts trembling " D''awwww is schomeone angwie ? are you gunna cr-" Next thing I know I''m flipping in the air "huh?" Landing On the ground I keep rolling until a completely stop "ugh.." " Fine ! I''ll teach you ! just let me get a few things ready ! " Said Nyx as she looked down on me She squatted down "next time you call me a little girl ,I won''t hold back " My vision starts getting blurry "hm? you''re waking up, well aren''t you lucky? I wake up . ------------------------------------------------------------------------- The first thing I see is a dark room....with Cyril tied up to a chair right across from me . "huh ?'' I''m tied up two ! what did I do to deserve this !? When I try to use my magic It feels like the ropes are draining it away . "hm ?! boy you''re awake !" Cyril whispered Cyril is sweating and constantly looking towards the door " We have to get out of here before she comes back !" Cyril does little hops with the chair towards me. Looking around all I see is a window with bars on it and a metal door.This room is barren. " Why am I tied up ! " "SHHHH ! keep your voice down ! If they hear us it''s over !" " Hurry up and explain old man ! " " It''s belle ...She intends to punish us... " Cyril had the thousand yard stare as he said this... He reaches me and places himself so that his hands can touch the rope tied around my body " No man deserves belles punishment..." He takes a deep breath and immediately starts sweating,then with a flick of the wrist grabs and tears the rope that tied me around my body. "quickly we don''t have much time !" I''ve heard all I need to hear I concentrate as hard as I can rip off the ropes tied around my leg. I start taking Cyril''s ropes off. *Bang* Cyrils face becomes pale "that''s the door at the entrance ...t-that''s the door...HURRY BOY !" This feels like a horror movie ! Finally ripping off his ropes Cyril bolts to the window and rips off the bars and punches through the glass. "let''s go !" He jumps down while I hear fast paced footsteps outside the door I follow Cyril and jump out the window,It was 4 stories tall. " Shit shit shit ! " I reinforced my body just in time. When I landed Cyril was waiting for me , He was looking up in horror. Belle was there,staring at us.She looked angry... " both of us won''t make it...... I respect you ..Let this old man deal with this and escape." C-Cyril " We are comrades ! I can''t just abandon you ! " Cyril sheds a single tear " Don''t worry, something like this won''t hurt me." LIke a pair of old friends, One''s that survived countless battles together, saying goodbye for the last time. "now go ! " Cyril grabs my arms and with large steps send me flying in the air at a high speed. With the few glimpses I got as I flipped in the air, I saw a building in the forest. Bell jumped down *flip * They start talking *flip* they both get into a fighting stance *flip* Cyril gets blown away and stops moving. Useless ! I reach the highest I''m going to get and for a second,It feels like I''m gently flying in the air... "What a beautiful day..." I start falling towards the ground Below me was a grassy plain filled with hundreds of students practicing their magic and sword play. How far did I get thrown? wasn''t there nothing but forest? My speed picks up,while I enforce my body with all the magic I can I...lived a good life *BOOOOSH* "kya what was that ?!"(random students) " a meteor?! " "call the teacher ! " "hehe...*cough* I can''t believe I survived" I try moving but my body starts aching...shit after a couple of minutes ,I slowly crawl out of the crater and look around. Hundreds of students are standing there looking at me.When I looked at the direction of the forest I see Belle jumping with an explosion of wind behind her sending her speeding towards me. holy shit ! When I tried to use my magic nothing happened..now of all times ?! I run inside the crowd hoping to lose her there *BOOOOSH* oh god ! Suddenly a burst of wind sent the students around me flying, leaving me out in the open.. "Belle is that you? whaaaaat....I didn''t even notice...wha-ugh" A violent wind shoves me to the ground " Wait ! we can talk about this ! " She straddles me,then slaps me *smack* "where were you for the past week ! " *smack* "you damn asshole ! " *smack* I slapped her back "calm down ! It was stupid Cyrils fault ! he trapped me in a dungeon ! " She still has that crazy look in her eye.. "I swear ! It was never intentional !" Her eyes become slightly lifeless " even so, I bet you enjoyed it,since you had the womans company" "wha ? it was needed for survival ! I never laid a hand on her ! scouts honor !" I was never a boy scout. She just kept staring at me...like a doll...holy fuck who did i involve myself with... " Y-Your the only woman for me !" She blushes "sheesh It can''t be helped, can it ? " She hugs me At this moment in time. I have never been more terrified of a person than I am now. 11.Art Lover So here we are, me,Cyril,Belle, and Lucy are sitting in some sort of conference room. Cyril slides me a note "What did I walk into ! " I scribble back "How the hell should I know ?! They just started going at as soon as they saw each other ! " "well do something about it ! " I look up Belle and Lucy are glaring at each other "hmm..If that''s true then you''re job is done since I''m here,you can leave." "And what ? leave him in thy hands ? the same person that let him be trapped in a dungeon ?" There is a sudden breeze in the room... "That was a mistake that won''t happen again ! " "If It happens once It can happen again " "Said the slut that he picked up while he was there ! " "What ?! " Lucy slammed her hand on the table creating large cracks.... I scribbled Back "No." "Thou are the one that kidnapped him like some creepy stalker when he collapsed !" "I was going to cater to his injuries ! " I had a bad feeling..tapping Cyril I point to the door silently voicing "Let''s go " "Won''t they notice us ?" "They''re busy we''ll be fine.." "That''s some way to cater to his injuries ! You''re just trying to take him away because you know he likes being around me better ! " "Wha-Don''t say stupid things ! He obviously likes being with me more ! " "Who''s the one saying stupid things?! Why don''t we ask him ! Michael whi-" When they look over all they see is a pair of empty chairs... ------------------------------------------- "Boy you will have to deal with them sooner or later" We''re on our way towards Cyril''s office "I''ll deal with it when the time comes..anyway we need to discuss something " "Hm and what would that be?" "I survived your stupid test now you need to fulfill your end of the deal" Cyril facepalms "ah ! you''re right ! ..." After a couple of minutes of thinking "eh I''ll just throw you in some classes...." "You think that''s enough !?" "huh? what do you mean ? People would kill so be able to take a class at this school ! "Support the author by searching for the original publication of this novel. "One week ! Surviving monster attacks and living on nothing but apples ! " "Bu-" "one week !" ".....How about you can choose any classes you want?" "with one on one time with any teacher" "They won''t do that for free ! " "...then only for a couple teachers " "2 teachers" "3" "2 ! " "3 and I''ll leave Belle alone ! " "Deal !" Just as we finished the deal we arrived at his office,Mia is standing at the front door looking shocked "Cyril what happened ?! Nevermind there''s been an attack on the acad-Michael ?! You''re alive !" "What''s up Mia ? Looking as beautiful as ever I see " "Yes,yes Don''t worry It wasn''t an attack it was just...me and the boy working something out " When she looks at me again she finally notices,My clothes are covered in dirt and are torn up "are you okay ?!" "I''m fine,I''m fine." She glares at Cyril "Jerk" "You take his side?! you''ve known me for years ! " She grabs my hand "come on let''s get you cleaned up " "where are you going ?! I need you to make some calls ! " "Hmph do them yourself ! " Leaving behind Cyril we keep walking until we show up in front of 2 doors on the first floor. "here we are ! " "and where is this exactly..." "Bath house ! Right now it should be unoccupied so you can relax ! and um..sorry about Cyril He can take things too far sometimes ....well then enjoy " As she turned around to walk away I grab her hand "It would be pretty lonely bathing by myself you know?I''d love it if you keep me company " " ah..That''s pretty bold of you " "is that a bad thing?" "What If I said yes ? " She said as she smiled "Then my fragile heart wouldn''t be able to take it ..." "Then I guess you''re heart is spared " Said Mia as she push me towards the door giggling Opening the door revealed 2 rows of lockers on each side and two large drawers on each side. One drawer was full of towels and the other was full of clothes. In front of both lockers was a long bench. Mia told me to go ahead of her and get in the bath,She doesn''t need to tell me twice. I practically ripped off my clothes with how fast I took them off. Grabbing a towel when I entered the next room it was shower heads every so often on the wall with various soups next to them.Quickly washing off the dirt from my body I head to the next door,when I opened it I was shocked. The room was bigger than I thought it would be.Half the room was taken up by a large hot spring On the walls there are paintings of a lush green landscape, when I looked to my right there was a bar and to my left were benches.Naturally, I went over to the bar. What should I drink ?pft hahaha It''s like Christmas ! I noticed a yellow bottle,Isn''t this the one that Belle likes?I choose you ! Walking over I jumped in the hot spring and relaxed on an edge,the water went up to mid chest. Man...When was the last time that I relaxed like this ? I start drinking and continue to muse. As soon as I came here I meet a goddess ,end up being thrown in a dungeon meeting Lucy and surviving there for a while, Fight Cyril,and escape a Jail cell .Just one thing after another , is this what I wanted when I wanted to go to a fantasy world? I mean this isn''t what I don''t want, Who would want to get transported to a different world just to live the same life? Looking at the painting on the wall I see grass hills with a forest to the left and a rising sun on the right. I wonder if there is someone living in this world dreaming of being taken away to earth ,to them that''s where the magic is. Suddenly the door opens and Mia walks in with a towel covering her. My god, the towel is barely hiding anything ... "How long are you going to keep staring ?" She said smiling as she enters the hot spring.She sits right next to me " There''s no time limit when appreciating beauty " " I bet you''re like this with every girl " "You know it " "Jerk " she playfully hits my arm " want some ?" I wrap my arm around her bringing her closer while I hand her the bottle While she drinks and puts the drink on the edge my hand starts exploring.. " Ah~.." "what''s wrong?" I said playfully She pouts then straddles me and starts grinding "H-Holy....." "what''s wrong?~ " This means war. Suddenly the door to the hot spring opens, standing there was Belle and Lucy. As fast a light itself, we separated from each other and looked at a painting "yes, this painting really captures the essence of nature, Mia what say you?" "indeed, It speaks to my soul " "oh well if it isn''t Belle and Lucy, how are you fine women?" "What were you guys doing ? " Said Belle with a glare "oh nothing, just appreciating such beautiful paintings.." Lucy sighs "Then why do you have a boner?" "...........................I really like art. Anyway that''s not important ! since you girls are here why not take a bath?" "".........."" "I have something important to talk about." ""................"" " super duper important" ""................"" "It involves what we will do from now on " ""..........we''ll be right back"" They close the door I grab the bottle and drink while I wait. Well, Let''s see how this goes. 12.SuperHero Although I said that. "Mia, I want you to be honest with me, is there another exit?" I said as I looked around the practically airtight room, with what looks like the only exit is the big doors that lead to the locker room. " eh..no.." "no as in ''no Michael there isn''t any obvious exits but there is actually this really convenient secret door or no as in all hope is lost?''" A large bang is heard from the locker room where Belle and Lucy are followed by cursing. "All hope is lost...i think I''m going to g-" "Wait, before you finish that thought follow me! " I get out of the bath leading Mia towards the bar. A wise man once said have two girls and they will fight you but have three or more and they will fight each other. Well that being said I don''t even know why they would be mad, it can''t be about me since I barely know the two of them. Must be a women thing. Standing in the bar with Mia sitting on a stool on the other side of the counter. I look at the bottle I still held on to. Suddenly a door to the locker room breaks off the hinges and gets sent flying across the room, out comes Belle and Lucy, looking as menacing as ever. "well, one thing at a time Michael.."I whisper to myself as I chug the entire bottle in one go Mia looks shocked as she whispers " how much is it going to cost to fix the door ...". "Mi-" I hold one hand up and signal them to sit down. I put the empty bottle down "You know *Burp* I don''t mean to brag but an ordinary man would have died of alcohol poisoning by now " "You''re like the world''s worst superhero" Belle said as she rolled her eyes "Worst superhero? worst superhero ?! I would be the best superhero around, in fact I would be the only superhero needed! I would save troubled alcoholics by drinking all their booze ! they would shiver every time they try to pick up a beer, shiver in fear because they know I would burst through a window to stop them, do you know how expensive it is to fix a window? they wouldn''t be able to drink and they would have to fix their window! who would want that ? but with other super heros it''s nothing but trouble, you end up with these super villains born because of the hero that make things worse ! what super villain can be possibly be born from me ? window man when he was young I broke his window, this window was his family heirloom handed down for generations his dad even made love on that window ! so now with a heart full of hatred, he reinforces the windows of every home, foiling my- whatever ! in short, I would make a great super hero. "The author''s content has been appropriated; report any instances of this story on Amazon. " Right, so Mr.Superhero didn''t you have something to talk about?" Said Belle looking completely unfazed about what I just said. " I''m glad you brought that up " I look towards Lucy, she is sitting all the way on the right, playing with her hair.Mia is awkwardly fiddling with her thumbs sitting in between Lucy and Belle. Lastly, Belle is staring straight at me, sitting all the way to the left. "Well to start things off, Cyril being the generous man he is, offered me the chance to take classes in this school a-" ""huh?"" all three of them as if they practiced beforehand let out a confused sound. Belle was the first to start mumbling "I thought I would have to convince him..." "thou are fortunate, I knew Cyril was eccentric but..." " He just does what wants.." "well as i was saying before I was interrupted...as for the classes themselves they are still undecided butt seeing as how I''m Michael I''ll just skip the basic classes and jump straight into the good stuff. Mia speaks up "...... Isn''t that a bad idea?" " nonsense !" Belle joins in " no I really think you should listen to her, magic is a da- " I lean over the counter and put one finger lightly on her lips "sshh, ever since olden times there existed a special being called a protagonist that given any circumstance, given any situation it would work out for that person .thus it will work out for me " "but you''re not a prota-"[Belle] "thus it will work out for me,I said it twice because it''s important." Lucy joins in " I think it would be interesting " "She understands !" Lucy salutes me "Aye " Ignoring Mia''s worried face and Belles annoyed face I continue "Besides that, I''ll just wonder the school and figure everything else out as I go along" it''s better If i just approach Belle about living with her for a while when it''s just her and me, in that huge mansion there should be one or two free rooms right? " Isn''t that a little irresponsible..?"[Mia] "Nonsense! " I said that as I rummaged through the cabinets and refrigerator, maybe I can make a white Russian if I can find some milk.bloody mary? that''s out of the question might as well drink straight vodka than that.what''s this? "Dragon tears..." a large bottle with blue liquid inside this cool name. I open the bottle and smell this strong smell... happiness is that you? I hear Belles voice "so I heard you spent the entire time in the dungeon with lucy..must have been fun" "if you call surviving fun then yes " I turn around as I said that Her signature doll stare. stop smiling it makes it creepier! is she a nutcase? 13. Hello,Teacher ! *Ahem* "My lady, nay my queen. I dare not continue the thought but are you questioning my loyalty?" vaulting over the counter I go on one knee. The sound of dripping water echoed throughout the room, all eyes were on me... one minute passes... " I may be wrong however just suspicion requires just punishment. what say you in your defense?" [Belle] " as you will, I will serve" " then my dear knight we shall discuss the punishment at a later date."[Belle] "ahhhh" walking back behind the counter I can''t helpt but sigh in relief, There is something about having a small wall between you and people that can kill you at any time that gives me a warm fuzzy feeling. " Then let''s get back on track " ------------------------------------------------------------------- " I believe this is the correct choice. With this, you shall blah blah blah blah....." Mia was rambling on about my first teacher. Turns out she is the type of person, who if you were to ask what are the stars made of she would go into full detail about atomic theory. Me, Mia, and Lucy left the bath and were walking towards the location of the teacher which happens to be where I crash landed earlier.Belle had to go make some report and would meet us later, she looked as eager to leave as a tree stump. " And lastly you can call him Mr.StealBulls" [Mia] " pfffffffttt huh? wha-what? come on be serious " Both mia and Lucy show confused faces " I am serious though? "[Mia] " you''re just making fun right? Fess up. No has the name SteelBalls"This book''s true home is on another platform. Check it out there for the real experience. Lucy chimes in "thou shouldn''t make fun of one''s given name "[Lucy] " That is a little mean Micheal..and why are you pronouncing it weird? it''s StealBulls." They both shake their head disappointingly huh? " No wait how I am the bad guy here? " ---------------------------------------------------------- Me and Lucy were sitting on a bench that faced the field, dozens of students were sparring each other barehanded or with a sword.Everyone is ignoring the crater. why. Is this commonplace? No, wait it''s weird that I didn''t expect this...Now that I think about it no one has complained about the destruction Cyril caused... I felt tugging on my sleeve. Lucy was pointing at a bench not far from us that had robes laid out on the table. One particular robe was partly hanging off the edge with a pouch on the verge of falling out of its pocket. "One''s carelessness is another''s fortune " Said Lucy with a slight smile " Punish not the man who takes what was offered to him " " But punish the fool who lets an opportunity go." [Lucy] " 17 copper , 5 silver , and 19 ingles."[Lucy] "Awesome...so ....is that a lot?" "............"[Lucy] After a brief explanation, the currency is like this. 10 copper=one silver 10 silver=one ingle While the copper and silver are coins and ingle is paper currency...I don''t know if feels off when you think of a world full of magic you tend to think paying in gold coins. Next thing they are going to tell me is that there are credit cards and paperwork to fill out to be able to use magic freely. Wait, that''s not foreshadowing is it? "so in short, we have a little over 1,900 coppers? what could that buy? " " A good amount of fun " [Lucy] You know this is the first time I''ve seen her this happy. Brings a tear to my eye. "What are you guys doing " Said Mia as she trotted over With speeds surpassing the limit of a physical body she stuffed all the ingles and coins in the bag and shoved it towards me. After I stuff it in my robe we both pretended to admire the students. " such work ethic... its admirable isn''t it Mia? The way they lift up the sword....and ...er ...swing it back down again ." "huh? I mean ..I guess." [Mia] She sits next to me "the students said the teacher stepped out a minute and will be back shortly " [Mia] Why have Mia do the talking? Cyril is too lazy to walk over here so he had Mia go do the introduction and explanation. It would be more than a problem if they didn''t believe me, and well everyone knows Mia is his secretary. Suddenly someone screams out " If it isn''t Mia sorry to keep ya'' waiting! "[???] When we turn to look at him. Oh my god..this..what is this ... A short man buff man was jogging over here. He would have looked normal if it wasn''t for having two giant balls completely covering his neck and resting on his chest instead of a chin swinging from side to side....
