《HERO OF DEMONS (HOD)》 Prologue-Disappearance Hello. I am the mysterious bomb flinging writer Kris, and will atempt to write all sorts of cool, sad, happy, tragic, funny, and awesome stuff. This is my first book. ********************************** *beep beep boop blooop* The sound of swords clashing could be heard. They sounded at regular intervals while other battle produced sounds also rang out through the classroom. *Won-won-woooooon* "Ah, I died." All the previous sounds had come from the Bentendo TS in the hands of a certain average looking black haired 8th grade boy. (note* Sorry just had to put that parody from Gintama in there.) (note2*And we are now for real starting the story!) ********************************* Hello, my name is Kris. Rest assured, I am a boy. It''s just that my parents wanted me to be a bit special. Nice going Mom, Dad, thanks for those years of bullying for something as trivial as a name that''s a bit different. Well, they died in a cliche car crash. (What am I? A web novel character?) when I was 7, so I guess that it didn''t affect me as much as it should''ve. "Kris! There''s a new arena event in First Fantasy!" "Got it Colby, Got it. I''ll form a party with you later" (note* if u didn''t notice, it''s a parody of F*nal Fantasy) Ah, there''s the reason. Colby, who was abused by his parents was moved to the orphanage after they were taken away by the authority''s. He arrived a short while after my parents died. When I was in a state of depression, he showed me video games and light novels. Needless to say, I was immediately transformed into an otaku. Colby, has a very average build like me, but completes the otaku look with his glasses. He also very recently has 8th grade syndrom and minor pervert tendencies. Despite all that, he is actually smartest in our class and practically a genius. All in all, he''s my best friend. Today''s a very nice day. It''s free period and everybody is either chatting playing table football, or fooling around. Well, Colby and I are playing First Fantasy. A case of content theft: this narrative is not rightfully on Amazon; if you spot it, report the violation. "Hey! Kris, Colby! You Disgusting Otaku Freaks! Hand over the usual lunch money!" Damn, It''s the class president; Kevin. He''s a pretty boy. I don''t understand why somebody as smart, handsome, and athletic would still want to harass some measly otakus like us. He''s always nice to everybody else, except Me and Colby. Since He''s also the son of this schools chairman, the teachers just let everything slide. The students are somehow convinced that it''s normal that otakus are disgusting. In short, A rich handsome playboy with blond hair., athletic body, and he''s also got brains. My god, he''s practically a manga''s main character. I''ve learned from experience that there is no way I can beat him. Although all those years of running down to the school cafe to buy lunch for him made me the fastest in the class, he is much stronger than me. So I just sigh dejectedly and hand over the money. There''s not really any point in resisting, is there? I thought that this year, he might end up in a different class, but no, when we took our new seats last week, there he is. With that dark smirk that only Colby and I recognize. I silently hand over the money that Colby and I had prepared. Then, *FLASH* A bright glow appeared on the ground. It had strange symbols that I could not recognize and resembled what me and Colby had watched in a certain anime before. We looked at each-other and recognition resounded in our eyes. "It''s a Magic Circle!" As expected of my best friend. We were totally in sync. If this is what we had read before in that certain light novel.... than ''that'' would happen. Were being summoned to another world! I hope. *FLASHSHSHSHSHSHSHSHHSH* ************************ On 9/9/9 classroom 99 grade 8, disappeared without a trace. This would become an uproar and for a while, the internet and news would have many threads about alien abduction theories. Ch.1-"THE FALL" J Well, Here¡¯s your beloved chapter my fans~ Well that¡¯s all in my head¡­I¡­ have¡­ no fans¡­ T_T Whatever! When I get famous, these posts will be historical treasures! WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! But¡­. for now¡­I¡¯ll just keep on building up my chapter stack¡­.. I need beer¡­¡­escapism is the best¡­. And Screw being under-age! I¡¯ll keep on going to bars and drinking orange juice until I turn 18! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAhahahahaha¡­¡­ha¡­..ha¡­.ha¡­¡­¡­¡­¡­. Goodnight~. ***************************************************** *FLAAAAAAAASHHHHHH* "Blurgh!!!!" "Argh" Sounds of vomiting and disorientation appeared. "Urgh...." Hello, It''s Kris again~ In the anime that I remember, the transported were just woozy or surprised. But reality was crueler. I mean, being forcibly being pulled into another dimension had to have side-effects. Maybe it''s because me and Colby didn''t really resist against the magic circle''s pull so we were just on our knees, while some people had just outright keeled over and lost conciousness. I look around. Wait! I Spot a certain jerk on the ground with his eyes in the back of his head and vomit on his shirt. Colby and I lock eye contact once again. Nausea is nothing in the face of this..... "CHAAAAAAANNNNNNNCEEEEEEE" Me and Colby both Yell, I grab a marker and start working on the clean portion of his shirt. Colby grabs a permanent marker and starts on his face. This is a once in 2 life times chance!!!! Ha! What Comes arround Goes around!!!!! AHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!! *********************************** ~Fyeeyive meynites layter~ (note* translated from spongebob accent: ~5 minutes later~) The result of our coldblooded assault (ahem) hard work, was Kevin, white of his eye''s showing, obscene and unspeakable things drawn on his handsome face. Don''t forget the big words on the only clean portion of his vomit colored shirt were the words: I SMOKE WEED. I also pocketed his expensive new Me-Phone ? . As Kevin and the other students gradually regained their senses, Colby and I were hysterically laughing our asses off while taking selfies and pictures of the bully of our 3 years all the way from 6th grade to now. Pictures....Ha! I just got another brilliant idea! I took Kevin''s expensive phone out, hmmmm...Yes! It''s fingerprint locked! I press the still half concious Kevin''s pointer finger onto the circle-ish button at the bottom of the phone. Annnd I''m In! Heehehehehe....I hand it to the professional:Colby. While being a genius otaku, he also knows how to hack! After about 2 seconds of figuring out the pass-code on Kevin''s locked photo''s, we were in. Ohhhhh!!! How convienent! There was a photo-folder specially labeled: nudes. My God! How stupid, can a guy get? Use snappychat ? or something! "Let''s seeeeee select this folder, send toooo.... our whole class you sure? Yes I''m Sure!" *ding* About all of the 30 people in our class received those.... "OMG!" Ah, I haven''t seen it yet. "Hey Colby, here show me the phone" "mph! H-here" What? Colby''s trying to contain his laughter? I''m curious! I take the phone....... "WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!" "It''s all blurred down there, but his expression is priceless! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!" After awhile we all calm down, except for Kevin who has a close to priceless face after waking up, it was contorted with anger, and..... more anger. Ha! do you think that I, who has endured countless years of bullying with Colby feel something like pity for him? AS IF!! GO DROWN IN A SEWER, COME BACK TO LIFE AND GET EATEN ALIVE BY ZOMBIES!!!! Of course all this is inside my head, whatever is said in real life would have quotation marks. Of course, that''s only if my internal monologues were put down in words (Give me a break that would never happen). Well, let''s just pretend to be oblivious to the people around us and observe. Hm, It seems that we are in some kind of white room. There is a similar magic circle from earlier on the floor. Yyyyyup, we''ve been summoned into another world. Theres. no. doubt. about. it. Hmph, all the other students have no idea where or what happened. Snippets of "Where are we?" and "What happened?" appeared all around. "YOU IDIOTS! IS''NT IT OBVIOUS THAT WE"VE BEEN SUMMONED INTO ANOTHER WORLD?!!?!?!?!!?!" Oh, wow. It seems that me and Colby are very in sync for these sorts of things. Suddenly, the walls of the white room fell, like, it became a cross shape on the ground kind-of. What?! All around us are these wierd priest guys. They are wearing white and gold robes? I hear yells of "IT WORKED!" and "WE''RE SAVED!" resounded. But they quickly collapsed. It looked like they had just ran a marathon. Most of the class was confused and astounded at this bizarre sight and even Kevin momentarily forgot his anger. "Welcome Heroes!" Oh god, this situation.... the feeling....I know it! And... of course Colby and I fall into the sync. "THIS IS JUST LIKE THE BEGINNING OF ''UNIQUE CHEAT OF THE SILVER WORD-EXPERT!" (note*parody of "unique cheat of the golden wordmaster ?" ) Everything is so exciting.... "Ummmm.... Please follow us to the preparation room to get cleaned please" Oh. I guess the guy is surprised that we shouted out all of a sudden. We were led to a different place with chairs. Since Colby and I were clean, we decided to sit there and screw around *cough, cough* experiment while everybody went to the separate rooms with showers. If this world is like what I think it''s like.... than It should have VG mechanics! What''s that you ask? Watch and learn! "[STATUS]!" "Whoa!" I''m surprised, there is actually a blue screen about the size of a Me-Pad in front of me. It shows.

Ok... It''s a beginner move that everybody knows...I think I''ll take a look at my status''s again...wow. I was kinda expecting one of those cheat moves... but I guess working and earning a killer move has it''s own appeal too. I feel like the world is against me. It just immediately gave me a title in the form of ''Otaku''. Is this new world mocking me!? I don''t get it! I press on it with my finger. To my surprise, It opens another smaller window!
Title:OTAKU In a different world, you had much prowess in utilizing your fingers. This results in a boost in [Dexterity].
Oho... I see, I gained a boost in [Dexterity] due to playing video games frequently? This is unexpectedly fun! I press the Hero title.
Title:Hero You''ve been summoned to another world! As compensation, you gain either the rare [light] attribute to add onto your natural attribute, or you gain dual attributes! There is also a great gain in stats!
Wow! It''s a dream come true! This is great! I even get boosted stats! Is this the rumored ''summoned to another world cheat"? Whoaaaaa!!!! Think about the glory in being a hero! Me and Colby could only dream of this while reading light novels!!! Humu, speaking Colby..... He shows me his stats.

Wow! This is amazing! Colby and I have the same types of stats as back while we were playing ''First Fantasy ?''! He would always be a mage type while I was the assassin or rogue speed type. I chose the speed type because all those years of running away from Kevin had really made me fast, and it was easier to familiarize with the game character. Colby''s [wisdom] and [intelligence] are really high too! As expected of my genius otaku friend! *Ga-bing* Colby suddenly had had a shocked face! What!? I can''t tell what he''s thinking! Usually we''re in sync, but, I can''t tell what he''s going to say!? "Kris..." He suddenly puts both arms on my shoulders, I''m really freaked out now. Suddenly his glasses twinkle like in an anime and... "If this is a fantasy land, THEN THERE MUST BE ELVES AND CAT EARED WOMAN, BUNNY EARED WOMAN, AND ALL SORTS OF BEAUTIES TOO!!! "oh...." "..." "..." "..." *BOOM* "Is that all you can think of in this situation?!?!?!" I tsukkomi punch him into the air and a manga-ish seen of him flying across the lounge we''re in appears. My god... He actually forced me to use the 3 stage speechless silence + the tsukkomi punch! Ugh... "Uhuehuehuehuehuehue....." What?! Colby survived my tsukkomi punch?! "You will never defeat me Kris! Nobody can defeat the fiery passion in my heart!" Ah, jeeez, his 8th grade syndrom is acting up... And you! Colby! Stop making that cool pose and atmosphere while saying such ridiculous things! What?! Is it just me, or is there a heroic background around that guy?! "STOP SCREWING AROUND" "Gabwebulebub?!" I do another tsukkomi but this time I fly through the air and perform a magnificent drop kick on his face. He''s got spirals in his eyes now. (sigh) My gosh... what is my life, some kind-of web fiction? (Authors retort* fufufufufufu..... Yes. Your life is a web fiction.... ) By the time me and Colby were done, everybody had finished showering. Including Kevin who had wiped the obscenity artwork off of his face and donned a simple white shirt and white pants from the spare wardrobe in our lounge. Damn, It''s not fair, me and Colby aren''t ugly, but were not super handsome either. Unlike Kevin, the sparkly popular guy that looks handsome in anything. Even in our graffiti artwork. *************************** Royal Palace Okay. Now we are being led to a tower, wow, It''s pretty high up here! Ohhhhh..... There''s an old guy with the feel of a king! His beard is exactly what I imagined it to look like although a bit bluish on the white! And next to him is a silent but regal slightly over 30 woman with black hair. Ohhhh.... on the other side is a beautiful princess with navy dark blue, silky hair! I can see Colby with that wierd passionate expression of his "Ahem, welcome, heroes. I would like to apologize for the sudden summoning from another world thing. Rest assured, this summoning was invented so that your families will momentarily lose all their memories of you. Unless they see you again." Kevin and others are shocked. Kevin, being the natural leader he was, stepped forward. "I-is there a way to go back?" "Yes, there is a way to go back once our objective is complete, which is to protect the human country" "Right now we are afraid of attacks from the demon army, while our numbers are greater than those demons, their magical and physical power are leagues above ours so will you please-" "We''ll do it" Kevin immediately knelt down and spoke heroically. In this way he looked really righteous, but to me and Colby, who knew the real him, noticed the lustful glint in his eyes as he looked at the princess. "Who are you, young man?" "I am somewhat the leader of the group of people behind me. And we will consider helping your kingdom for a reward. If you encounter this tale on Amazon, note that it''s taken without the author''s consent. Report it. Very well then, first, let me inform you that this is a world of magic, please recite [STATUS]. The room was filled with the familiar ding of the Status window, and now there were many blue screens in front of everybody. "Whoa!" there were many exclamations while people gathered near Kevin. I took a look at his stats.

The King and Queen come over to take a look "Ohooo" "This fine man is pure [light] attributed?" "This is it! This is what we were hoping for!" "The ancient sword in our storage can only be wielded by an otherworldly purely attributed hero!" Whaaaaat? His stats, Aside from agility, beat me in all aspects! He even has an unique ability! Kevin turns towards me, he smirks. I get a chill down my back. He says, "[ANALYZE]!" "Hmmmmm,mhmmmmmm Your stats are actually pretty good considering it''s you, but oho?! What''s this? You have [Attribute Confliction]? Why not check it out? I check it with a bad feeling in my stomach.
Abnormal Status: Attribute Confliction Due to having totally conflicting attributes within your mana stream, your mana cannot even be manafested more than an inch away from your hand.
Oh. God. This, I don''t even need Colby to explain to me. No launching fireballs at enemies. No manifesting tornadoes. No making spikes appear from the ground. Actually, no. spellcasting. at. all. "Wait! I can still find a way to utilize my magic, right?" "To late" Whispers Kevin with a nasty smirk. He acts natural and innocent while asking the king before I can do anything "If I may ask, your majesty, what attributes are demons normally?" "Hmmmmmmm The demon race is consisted of mostly, the [Darkness] attributed, why?" That bad feeling in my stomach is there again. "What!?" Kevin exclaims with an almost believable feigned astonishment. "My Friend here is of the [Darkness] attribute along with an unique status of [Attribute confliction]!" Argh! This bastard! "In fact, he was actually a very antagonistic person in our previous society before coming here, isn''t that right guys?" "The others catch on while some just remain silent." The princess looks like she wants to say something,but has a worried look on her face. Colby completely steps out of carefree mode and gets serious. he has an angry look on his face. But Kevin rushes on and exclaims while pointed a finger at Colby. "And You! You were the supporter of this horrible person behind the scenes. Your mana capacity might be large but your abnormal status could explode and kill us all in a moment! Colby looks overwhelmed and confused. "Huh?" "Your majesty, I ask permission to rid of these people!" "Sigh... very well, do what you want" "Eh!? In this situation I could actually perish!" The princess finally speaks, "Father, shouldn''t we first see if-" "Silence, the blond haired one is our only hope, he has the extremely rare pure [light] Attributed mana flow" Powerless, the princess backs down. Kevin looks a bit peeved that the princess tried to help me. And he reacts a bit fast "Everybody let''s get rid of those 2 Otakus once and for all!" "Oh god" About 3/4ths of the class immediately attack. I prepare for my first battle and instinctively tense and crouch as about 20 people charge towards me. We''re on a tower about the size of 2 basketball courts. If I get pushed off, it''s over. Colby also crouches. As an underling of Kevin rushes in faster than what should be normal, I see that this worlds [STATS] are actually effecting our physical capabilities... If it effects them so much, than I who has better stats than everybody except for Colby and Kevin, will have pretty good physical capabilities. I push forward with all my might. *BOOM* It was but a small boom, but I looked back and saw a tiny crack in the ground where I was before. Everyone including me was surprised. Looks like all those years of bullying actually me having so much agility and decent strength! I quickly weave through the incoming people with no maneuvering experience, Hah! I had to jump, duck, slide, and leap over all sorts of crap when being chased by Kevin''s gang back then. This is child''s-play. After finally weaving through everybody, I bent my leg like a spring and burst towards Kevin. He wasn''t expecting it and I was already pulling back my fist. All of those years of resentment Channelled into my arm.....And blasted out. Huh? I can see above him, A red bar and a slightly smaller blue bar under it. The red one decreased by about 1/10th. Everybody gapes, even me. Ah, the adrenaline rush is gone. And Kevin''s fist is curling... At that moment. I. Fucked. Up. I could have easily avoided it with my agility, but when I was focused on the red bar decreasing, and the surprise at Kevins Hp bar actually decreasing by 10% from my punch, the adrenaline disappeared. *BOOM* Kevin steps in while his fist glows golden yellow. It looks like that Kamehameha! Thing from a certain anime I watched. It creates a boom at least 2x louder than mine and he punches straight into my solar plexus. Ah. It really was like a Kamehameha. You can see a energy blast going right through me. *PUHECK* I vomit blood. I feel like taking a nap. The casm of unconsciousness lulls me. NO! I unconsciously push my legs to the limit. I stand up. I start punching him but it doesn''t even deal significant damage. Blood spilling out of the corner of my mouth, I grin. Why? Because with this, I''ve won. Symbolically anyway. This is the first time that I just didn''t endure the beatings or run-away. I''m resisting. Haha. He looks peeved. My strength is leaving me.... He punches me a second time. *BOOM* *PUHECK* This time It''s my chest. The hell. He''s to strong. I think the energy blast actually reached the clouds this time. I vomit more blood. I think It''s over. I glance at Colby, He''s getting overwhelmed even if he had some basic attack spells, he''s only one guy with large stats, while there are 20 enemies. The other 10 people just stand and watch in awe as they see the battle you only witness in anime come to it''s conclusion. But I refuse to be blasted into the away! I refuse to be rocket like a rag doll into the air! I refuse to let myself get pushed even a little bit! I push my body to the limits as yell for all I''m worth and I feel my blood winding around my body! Wait. This isn''t blood. It''s Mana? I can only describe it as that. It''s inside my blood stream. I force this new-found power to fill my skinny legs. While Kevin''s Energy blasted through me, Cracks filled the areas near my feet. But I wouldn''t back down or budge even an inch. My legs seemed to be covered with a strangely colored aura. It was neither Black, or White, or even gray. I can''t describe it. One of those blue semi-transparent window things appeared in front of me. I was fighting unconsciousness though, so I waved it aside and payed no heed to it. Ugh...... haha. Kevin looks really peeved now. "Che. Pretty tough," (Kevin) He Comes in for the 3rd punch. 3rd times the charm. I can only resist so much. For a skinny otaku such as my self, this was already a miracle in itself. His punch this time rockets towards my face. *BOOM* The biggest boom of them all yet. There''s no way I can resist. I look at my mp bar and see that it''s empty. Seems I''ve unconsciously used up all of my mana during the second punch. I.... I... My consciousness disappears in the blink of an eye. Or so I hoped. Ugh, I lost consciousness for only a second, but the pain brought me back. Huh, I can''t see out of my right eye? This time I Fly back with the blast. Huh? Colby, Don''t come here, you''ll be carried with the blast. Sadly, my thoughts do not reach him. I am pulled back a little bit from the blast, Colby miraculously grabbed onto my blood soaked hand. But that''s not enough to stop my momentum. We slide towards the edge of the tower. I fall. But Colby still grabs, tears in his eyes. Kevin leisurely strolls up to us with a smirk. "Yo, otakus. Got any last words?" I see the heavy breathing and sweat on him though, I know it''s hard for him to, knowing this, I have less regrets. I grin with a smirk to rival Kevin''s. And speak three words. Only three words and an action. "GO. TO. HELL." I stick my middle finger up at him for good measure. Oh wow, he''s so pissed that I got the last word. "Whatever, this is a phrase used by you otakus, right? SAYONARA, SUCKERS" And with that, he kicked Colby into the air right over the tower''s edge. And.....we fall. It looks like it''ll take about a few minutes for us to hit the ground. Suddenly, an old geezer''s voice sounds in my head. He says, "Hey, sonny, you just happen to fulfill my requirements for being a disciple. Do you want to just admit defeat to that lousy playboy jerk?" Of course the answer is: to be continued. (Authors note* Just kidding! L-O-L) Of course the answer is: "HELL NO!" "I like your answer boy" I can imagine the old geezer grinning at the other end. And with that, a pure black magic circle appeared beneath me and Colby. *FLASH* ***************************** On the day that the heroes were summoned, 2 corpses that should''ve been found on the grounds near the tower, were reported missing. end. Ch.2-"DEMON" Hello! It''s your favorite bombflinging author here! This chapter took a long time because I had to help my friend make tables. We found out that it sucks to make them with that program thingy, so I just spent my time editing the code to make my own. ANyways..... ENjoy the Chapter~! ********************* Where am I? Huh? I remember, my name is Kris... I think? Whoa! My life flashes before my eyes. Hmmmm I hope Colby is Ok...... Did I die?! No...It''s dark...but IT HURTS LIKE HELL!!! ********* I wake up. Yelling the last 4 words of my dream. AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! Argh....It really hurts, especially my right eye. It must have been on Kevin''s last punch.It''s like being burned into nothingness... The pain was so intense that I didn''t even take the time to observe my surroundings, what? Another blue notification?! I don''t care... It hurts, ugh....... After the burning pain subsided, I was lying in a puddle of sweat breathing intensely. Ouch...I''m so sore... I finally take note of my surroundings. Huh? I... am in a room that looks a bit like the throne room earlier? I turn my head. There are... huge black markings spreading across the floor... OH. GOD. It''s... a huge magic circle. "Hello sonny" "What?" It''s the same voice I heard from when I was falling?! Ok.... First step in a RPG: get info. I need to know where this voice came from. But it''s like it''s everywhere, or.... in my head? "Ummm if I may ask...do you know where my friend is?" "Oh....Hmmmmm... Yes, yes... the weak looking one donning spectacles I presume? "Uh, yes" "Now, let''s get down to business. You''ve been summoned here because you fulfill my requirements. That magic circle under you summoned you to here and it was keeping you in a state of suspended animation until you woke up. Now, the effects of the magic circle are wearing off. So you have to accept my offer or........ hmmm....what was it again? Oh. Yes, you. will. die." Oh. Shit. Nononononononononoooooo I''m NOT going to die before I see some fantasy women nonono! I think I can see Colby saying that right now, am I hallucinating? Whatever. I want to have some fun in this world though. ALSO, I"M NOT DYING IN THIS WORLD UNTIL I GO UP TO THAT KEVIN AND GIVE HIM A PUNCH TO THE FACE!!! Of course none of this is outloud, but shit, I think the old gramp''s voice can read minds..... I''m scared. "Ok, I will take you up on your offer but you have to explain everything to me" "Oho, smart boy. You sure? You''ll survive, but it''ll be a universe of pain, and there''ll be small changes in your body. You''re to skinny" "I''m sure" Finally I hear him coming *step, step, step, step* Wow, he''s different from what I imagined.Tall. He''s like a young man in his 30''s, totally the opposite of what I got from his elderly voice . White hair, not silvery, not dyed, It looked like... a natural color? He steps up, "Well sonny, you ready?" I nod "Good I''ll count" He manifests a...red ball? It looks like it''s made of mana, but it gives off a crimson red demonic glow.... "1!" And he jabs the ball into my right eye. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" IT HURTSSSSSSS!!!!!!! NO! I''ll SURVIVE THIS!!! b-but noooooo Arghhhhhhh!!! I can handle all of the pain here! B-but down there, I can''t handle the pain down there!!!! "ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!" Oh my God!!! It''s tearing me a part, putting me back together and repeating, Ugh my eye is hurting like hell.... but down there... I feel like it''s snapped off. Can I still call myself a man from now on?! ***************************** ~A smyall amyount of tyime laytere~ (A.N: Translate from spongebob narrators accent:~A small amount of time later~) *Huff, Huff, Huff, Huff* Again I lay in a pool of my sweat. Another one of those blue window things appeared at the end of the torture, but I was to stressed out to care and waved it away. It all happened in a minute, but it felt like hours. Buuuuuuuut! There is one thing I''m rrrrrealllllly pissed about." You can see one of those anime veins on my forehead "GRAMPS!!! WHAT HAPPENED TO 2 AND 3?!?!?!" "He puts on a smirk to rival Kevins" "One thing that you''ll learn from me boy, is that in life, all a man needs is to be number one! 2nd and 3rd are worthless!" Th-This guy! He''s really pissing me off! But from what I know, I''m alive because I had a red demonic ball of mana jabbed into my right eye and I''m curious as to what''s inside me right now. "All right gramps, can I see my friend and then wash up, then please explain everything to us" "Yes, yes, boy, follow me" I''m led, and for some reason, my eyesight is sharper than before, I suddenly notice lot''s of things, including I''m in a castle that rivals the majesty of the previous castle I was summoned into, except it has a darker look to it. Now that I think about it... I''m actually feeling really great right now, not powerful or any surges of energy. Just... I''ve been walking for what shouldn''t be possible for the me before I fell, and I feel still really... relaxed. Finally, I''m led to a door with the sign, RL. For some reason the stuff I read is automatically translated, and I have started talking in a different language unconsciously altogether without me noticing it. The door opens, what does RL mean? What''s inside? What happened to KRIS? TO BE CONTINUED... JK~ I go in. And Colby''s playing ping~pong with a beautiful girl. She''s on the bigger side of a C cup...Beautiful face... Long silky violet hair going over her shoulders and Curvy everywhere. But only Colby could have noticed all that. As for me, I. don''t. really. care. And I slowly stare at his perverted joyful face. What the heck?! He even has a nosebleed. And what is that pink sparkly aura surrounding this room? He hits the ping pong again, still unaware that I''m there. Why is it in slow motion? This is really pissing me off! "..." "..." "..." "Oh, Hi Kris, I was wondering where you w-" "WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!" I do a magnificent tsukkomi spinning drop drill kick into his face. "Bwubleburgle?!" He flies through the room and fortunately for him, lands on a couch. Wait, couch? Where exactly is this? "Hey gramps, where is this?" He snorts "Boy can''t you read? This is the R.ecreational L.ounge" "..." "..." "..." "Oh." "Colby suddenly reappears, "Why did you only tsukkomi hit me!?" "Cause that''s your character in this webnovel" * That sounded suspiciously like a bomb flinging person... "What? What webnovel?" "I don''t know, I didn''t say anything yet?" (A.N*:fufufu.... that was me...) "Whatever," Colby''s carefree attitude surprisingly diminishes, "Um, Kris, you know that there''s no halloween in this world, right, and you look...different." "What? Whaddya mean?" "Huh? You didn''t notice?" Colby leads me to a door that connects the the R.L room, It reads, washroom. "Ah, Kris, since your, all sweaty, why don''t you use the shower, don''t do anything dirty while I''m gone~" "Only you would do that, perv" I say as Colby leaves with a disturbing grin. ******************************* -After the shower- "Hah.... that was really refreshing-" "What the crap?!" My Hair! It''s all...White? It''s not dyed... or aged...It''s like a natural hair-color... Oh. God. What did that old gramps put into me?! And, my body...It''s not super muscled, but... no longer... skinny... I''m... lean? It''s kind-of like that guy from tokyo ghost ?... I''m glad that my body still looks normal....Gah! My eyes?!! Oh god, It''s Red...and Blue? I have a crimson red right eye, and a super light blue left eye? "GRAMPSSSSSSSS!!!!!!! WHAT DID YOU DO TO ME!!!!!!" ***************************** -One Panic session later- "Ok, boy, no need to panic" Said gramps (yeah, I''ll just refer to that guy as gramps from now on) Colby was there snickering with the violet haired beauty on the couch. While Gramps and I just sat down and here we are now. "Alright. What I did was stabilize you, or so to speak, fuse your mana stream, boy. Everybody has a mana stream, it is a network of power inside your blood, so if you lose enough mana, you will feel dizzy or dis-oriented. Your mana attributes are of totally contradicting elements, and thus, cannot be manifested" "So, how was this solved?" "Boy, It''s simple, think of your mana attributes as 2 lumps of metal, they won''t stick together and are separate, so basically, I used my demonic power to ''melt'' the 2 lumps of metal and have them become liquid metal so that they can fuse. The [Darkness] and [light] attributes inside you have essentially been combined. Since your body was always so weak, it went under many loads of unexpected stress in a short span of time, it would obviously effect you. Your hair and dissappointingly small muscles were produced from this. Your eye''s are the effects of your attributes fusing and them emerging on the external of your body." "O...k..." That... was... a lot to digest. But, I guess the old man did do a good job of describing everything. Now, you should have one [Unique Attribute], check your status, boy. I was going to do that anyways... Whatever, time to see what''s going on with me. "[STATUS]!"

"..." "..." "..." OH MY GOD! Th-These Stats! THEY''RE AMAZING! My [Attribute Confliction] Is totally gone! And these... aren''t these better than that jerk Kevin''s stats?! Gramps smirks at me, "You were summoned from the [Hero summoning], right? We, [Hero summon] ed you again, from the human kingdom''s royal palace, to our royal palace, while on top of that, I fused and stablized your mana streams. Check your recent [status notifications] the one from before you fell. And the one from after your summoning." This content has been unlawfully taken from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere. Duh! Of course I''ll do that! First, let''s take a look at the one I got while fighting Kevin.
NEW SKILL! You have gained a new skill: [Mana Manipulation]! [Mana Manipulation], let''s you freely and efficiently manipulate your mana around your body to strengthen it for Attacking or Defending, this is the basic foundation on a warrior or even sometimes a mage.
Wow! This''ll be really useful in the future! Even if it is just a basic skill, It''s better to have it than to not have it! I quickly scroll down to the next ones eagerly. Hmmm... I got this one after being summoned to this castle...
You''ve Been Summoned! You have been summoned twice now! Bad luck, huh? L-O-L. Due to being summoned twice, you''ve gained +10 in all stats!
What the hell is this!? Is this world mocking me or something?!!!!!
NEW ATTRIBUTE! Your Attributes have been combined to form a completely new attribute: [ARCANE] Your [Attribute Confliction] has been dispersed due to there being no opposing attributes in your mana stream. Merits: +10 to all stats.
New Skill! You have gained the unique skill: [ARCANE MANA WIELDING] Your skill: [Mana Manipulation] has been absorbed by your new skill because of the change in attribute. Merits: +10 to all stats.
Th- This is incredible!!!!!! I g-got a unique skill! This is what I''ve been waiting for!!!!!! I''m so lucky!!!!! AHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! I really want to try out so many new things with this awesomeness!!!!! After a while, I just reveled in the power until... "Hm?" "..."

"..." 13 yr old Human/Demon? "GRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAMPSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" ******************************* On the day after the [Heroes Summoning], the human kingdom''s advanced B rank magicians and above, managed to sense a huge and powerful magic aura in the direction of the [Demon Continent] and human troops stationed at the border of the continents reported a sighting of a huge black summoning circle and an energy blast of unknown color explode through the clouds. ******************************* ~Chapter end~ Phew! This chapter was pretty hard for me to write mostly because of a certain author *cough* Kelvie *cough* that started writing a web-novel after I decided to try writing one. That book is very classified info and I won''t give you any hints! *Cough* Void *Cough* Don''t you dare search any of those *cough* key words *cough* up! You hear!? Otherwise..... you might get bombed.... Huehuehuehue......... BYE~ Ch.3-"WAR" Hello! I''ve finally got over 40 followers! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!!!!! ONE DAY I''LL BAND TOGETHER ALL OF MY FOLLOWERS AND FAVORITERS TO CONQUER ROYAL ROAD!!!!!!! Of course, nobody shall know of this plot... Hue, Hue, Hue, Hue... Crap! Uh, you didn''t see that did you?! Ummmmm... nothing suspicious here! Go along now! What? Waddya mean my left eye''s twitching? Ahaha... My eye twitches when I tell the truth! Thats right! Don''t discriminate against eye-truth-twitchers!!! Huh? I''m suspiciously sweating?! Preposterous! These are... uh-these are.... SKIN TEARS! That''s right! SKIN TEARS! I have very sad skin! Ummmm... shall I do a random rant? Wait I already did one.... WHATEVER HERE''S YOUR CHAPTER!!!!
Hello. It''s Kris here. Welcome to my inner monologues again. And.... (sigh) I... have abandoned my humanity... but... I don''t regret my choice... I made my own decisions... "..." "LIKE HELL I CHOSE TO GIVE UP MY HUMANITY!!!" "YOU! GRAMPSSSSS! EXPLAIN EXACTLY ONE. MORE. TIME. HOW DID I END UP BECOMING A HUMAN/DEMON HYBRID?!!!!!!" "Ahem, uh, calm down boy. Humu, uhhhhhhh first.... uhhhhh be glad you didn''t die?" "Oh. Okay. Yeah, I should really take on a more positive outlook on th-" "WHAAAAAAAAAT?!?!?!?! WHATS THIS ABOUT ME DYING?!?!?!?!" I pop a vein on my forehead. "Aw, damn, I slipped up in front of the brat" "Humu. Ah... Boy, this old grampy''s head isn''t as good as it used to be, I confused you with someone else..." This. really. pisses. me. off. "BULLSHIT!!!" *BA-KING* (sound of dramatic lightning flashing) "Ah!" The annoying gramps puts both his hands up in a protective manner, "I was... seen through... so, quickly..." It almost seems as if lightining is flashing in his background, and why are you putting on that so surprised face gramps? It''s really, really ticking me off. "JUST SHUT UP AND EXPLAIN!!!"
-A few minutes later- "Okay boy, plz spare this poor old grampy" Said Gramps, as he felt the new bruise on his forehead. "Cut the crap. Now, explain" "Hmph... fine. Look kid, remember when you got all those stat boosts after I fused your mana stream when I shoved the red mana sphere into your eye?" "yeah..." I reflect on that scene and feel really pissed off again "Well, first, guess my identity." Whaaaaaaaat? Th-the gramps''s face..... It''s....serious? Not a trace of joking could be sensed. Even Colby and the beauty stopped fooling around and payed attention. Well, It was more like Colby was interested and the beauty was amused. "Ummm... some old rich geezer living a life of solitude in a dark forbidding castle?" "..." " (sigh)... boy... I''m the demon king and ruler of all the demon continent" "And I''m a hero that will save hundred of people lives on a magical unicorn that shoots rainbows, eats rainbows, and shits rainbows" "..." "Um, boy, actually you are a hero already, and I will see to it that you will save hundreds of people. Minus the Unicorn." "Oh- thank goodness I never really wanted a unicorn-" "Wait..." "..." "..." "..." If this guy is telling the truth... And If I think this is what I think it is... "Boy, I ask for your help in protecting the demon continent from those greedy human bastards" "NOOOOO WAYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!" I had this same conversation several times in a row till the truth set in. I was summoned to another world. After that, I was kicked off of a tower, almost died, Summoned along with Colby to the Demon lords castle, and now we''re being asked to do the exact same thing we were asked to do in the human kingdom, backwards. WHYYYYYY?????!!!!!!! Why can''t I be in some cliche storyline to conquer the demon king? But noooooo. I have to be the evil villain! If my life was written in words (which of course it''s not) then Kevin would be the villain! *A-HOOOOOOOO* After taking some deeeeep breaths.... I calm down. "Gramps Explain" "Finally boy, first, the situation. This world has 3 Main Races. The Human Race, The Demon Race, And the Fairy Race. Now, the fairy race don''t really care about what happens to the rest of the races. And there are some rumors that they even live in a separate dimension. Normally, fairies are the only one to have the [light] attribute, but not in the case of the [Hero Summoning]. That specific summoning actually utilized the remnants of a fairy artifact. Humu. Now, there is also the rare race of Elves, and beastmen. Colby all of a sudden gets that strange sparkle in his glasses at the sound of Elves and Beastmen. "First, the Elf Race. They are an eccentric race that loves nature, they first originated when some fairies and humans had an affair. Now, the Beastmen. Most humans refer to them as "demi-humans" Because "demi" means part demon. Originally demons were animalistic because of the environments but became more and more humanoid. Finally, after a demon and a human had a forbidden affair, the subspecies of "beastmen, or demi-humans" were made. Now, most demi-humans were discriminated against, and there is a current war with the demons fighting for demi-human rights, and the humans fighting for the rise of demi-human and even demon slavery." "..." I''m shocked and intrigued... I guess... everything depends on perspective... I know what he said was the truth because of the notifications that popped up for me in the middle of the story.
NEW SKILL! Arcane Demonic Eyes: You can see through lies in one eye like a fairy, and you can sense danger with the other one like a demon. Your''e new body has successfully completely adapted without any internal damage and minimal external changes! Yay! Be thankful you didn''t die!
That reminds me... I''ll hide my curiosity and start off with a threatening tone. "Graaaamps... That''s fine and all... but... what''s this about me having a chance of dying? Plus, you didn''t explain my race changes yeeeeet." "Humu, kids can''t be patient these days.... Yes. Ahem. First, your current race status. Remember when I jabbed that red ball of mana into you? As the Demon lord, my power is hereditary so, I guess you gained some of my.... (DNA). And....." Gramps sees my expression and hurries on quickly before I have a chance to retort. "And you did indeed have a chance of death. You were summoned with your friend here because #1. Your friend and you have good war potential, and #2. Your attributes" "My attributes?" "Yes, previously you had the [light] and [darkness] attributes, correct? " "Hmmm... yeah." "Well, in order to be able to handle my power, one would need an affinity with the [darkness] attribute of the demon race, and the [light] attribute to be able to completely endure my power" "Ugh... Seems my luck is bad..." "Actually, no, you and your friend here, had very bad conditions for both of your mana streams. But that''s cured now, I stabilized your friends condition with some hand-stitched enchanted gloves from my daughter Violet." "Daughter?" Colby grinned and pointed to the beaut- Violet. He held up his hands. Nice huh? They were... one Fiery Red and the other Icy blue. "I remember now... I recall Colby telling me his special condition before the tower fight."
Abnormal Status: Attribute Unstability: Your attributes are very unstable. They could either mix very will or reject each-other. Your attributes are very dangerous, to either your enemies, or yourself.
I take a look at Colby''s status with my [Analyze] Ability.

Huh? I read his abnormal status... It wasn''t [attribute unstability] anymore?
Abnormal Status: Attribute Harmony Your''e normally unstable attibutes have been harmonized by an outside force, this converts your previous attributes into: [Frostfire], a new attribute.
Wh-Whaaaaaaaat! A-a harmonized skill?! I-it''s a good thing that Colby''s mana power won''t just randomly explode now, but this, this is pretty coooool! "I''m soooo Jealousssss" "Whaaaaa! No, that''s unfair Kris, you already got a new [Arcane] attribute! It''s only fair that I get some cool equips!" After a while, we were done gaping at the amazing things that our unlucky situations brought us. And then finally, the demon lord (gramps) held out a paper with blood red ink on it. Me and Colby got the same window.
Do you agree to help the demon race in the current war? HELL YEAH||F*CK NO
Me and Colby gave the same answer while pressing the button. "HELL YEAH!" It was time for war.
That day, some strange agitated voices, a strange silence, and an exclamation of "HELL YEAH" was heard by the castle guard. Head guard: "(sigh...) That baka king... I bet he''s partying and drinking.... again.
Hi guys~ So, um... My random rants will happen.....at ....... random. Yups. Next chap, I''ll probably do some training, and then some Kevin/princess POV. You can only guess what happened while Kris wasn''t at the chapter... Huehuehue... Goodnight, I''m going to bed at an insanely early today so I had to rush edit this chap. Bye! See-ya nxttime. If you don''t like it then go away, don''t read it, and Bomb yourself.lol Ch.4-"THE JERK" Hey Guys... Sorry I''m late...The new school year is gruesome... I''m taking a course that I should be taking next year... But parents... PARENTS!!! OH! THE HORRORS!!! KNIVES COULDN''T HURT THEM! SWORDS WOULD GLANCE OFF THEIR SKIN! BULLETS WERE RICOCHETED OFF THEIR BODIES LIKE NOTHING, STRENGTH LIKE A TITANS, SPEED WAS THAT OF MONSTERS, SPEARS SNAPPED UPON THEIR SKIN, THEY WALKED THROUGH MINES LIKE NOTHING... AND...THE WORST PART IS... MY BOMBS! THEY TOOK MY BOMBS! My parents were to strong... I''m way out of their league...my bombs couldn''t do anything... what occurred was no battle, it was a massacre... I would rather be dumb and happy then smart and depressing... so that I wouldn''t have to take advanced classes... whyyyyyyyyy...Well, whatever! I''ll keep on writing chapters and turning to escapism! Orange Juice just makes the pain fade~ Ahhhhh.... relaxing isn''t relaxing without O.J... And bombs. Gotta have bombs. Nevermind I don''t have bombs...only my orange juice... It was hard to write from a gender that I have no familiarity of. Also, we''ve reached 70 follows and over 15 favorites! AHAHAHAHA!!! I''ll be making this chapter xtra long for you guys! Well, Enjoy the chapter! *************** -Princess''s POV- I am Lisanna, Opial, Rudolph, the 3rd. A princess. But I dare say that it''s not as good as you think to be a royal girl. My royal family''s heritage is of the girls, while, princes that will benefit the kingdoms fame and glory or economy, we princesses of the Opial Rudolph heritage are forced to marry them one day. I, for one, enjoyed the stories of peasants and royalty falling in love. I in fact have no intentions of marrying someone I don''t know. It is irrational and illogical if you consider the feelings of me. Luckily for me, right now the [hero summoning] is required due to the recent war. My father said that we were declared war on from the hostile Demons, but I feel that something''s off. I will ponder that later. If there was the rare chance of the [Pure Light Hero] appearing in the summoning, then father promised me I could try to become close to him and build a relationship without being forced to marry some fat guy from across the continent. It''s tomorrow! There''s only a small chance though... But still... I can''t wait to see what he looks like! ******************** -Next Day/Day of hero summoning- Finally the next day, after hearing a fairly large *FLASH* My parents and I took our respective seats in the throne room. When the heroes first arrived, I thought why are they so young? I would''ve thought they would be fairly older than me, who is 14, but it seems that they are younger than me?! I immediately observed. Mother and Father had already trained me to notice the differences between peoples'' expressions, thoughts, physical and mental prowess/state of mind. I could analyze a person immediately and find out if they were competent. I also kept a posture that mother had taught me for when meeting someone that you wanted to charm. First, I saw about 30 or so prodigy level people. And then after a while... I singled out... 3 people. First, the skinny one donning the spectacles: Ignoring his openly perverted face, I noticed his mental capabilities were his strength It was at a genius''s level! His physical capabilities were about same as the other 30 though. Hmmmm probably a nice powerful mage. Most likely a harmonic one. Next, the blond haired one. I noted his fair blond hair, confident posture, smile, and well toned body.... Get a hold of yourself Lisanna! Hasn''t Father and Mother taught you before!? Never judge by appearance, but I had to admit, this one was very handsome.... No! First, his mental prowess was just falling short of the perverted spectacles but were still much higher than the others. But he also had very good physical build... Humu, maybe a magical swordsman... orrrr Oh! Yes! A palladin! I imagined myself in a princess carry. Tehehehe~ Holy hero and Princess.... Tehehehe~ Of course I hid all of this in my mind as my face remained calm! Hehe! Ok, I had already made out the blond one to be exceptionally nice and handsome skilled in physical and mental capabilities... wait. I''ll check the other one. With a bit of reluctance in my heart, I looked at the skinny one with average looks, weak, wiry almost wimpy build. He didn''t look like much and I had already singled out the blond handsome one... but why did my instinct tell me he was powerful? I observed him a little closer. Hmmm surprisingly fast! Faster than the other 30?! Hmm... I can see now... He''s also got mental capabilities that surpasses the others to... But... Not much strength... His eyes... they have quite a powerful stare... maybe an assassin or speed rogue... I''m quite captivated by this boys eyes... *********************** Little did the princess know it, but those eyes were only that way because of months of allnighters playing videogames, reading manga, watching anime, and scrolling light novel recs. Kris had developed an uncanny ability of eyesight and the ability to see through the dark. This is not considered a skill because it''s just part of his body and not a special ability. And his speed? It was a result of running from Kevin and his gang for all his life. Mental capabilities? 1. His Best Friend was Colby, a genius in the real world 2. He had studied like hell was after him after Kevin bothered him for being "dumb". *********************** Of course, the princess did not no that, and still had Kevin a little higher in her book. Until that happened. To be continued... (A.N: Yeah right! Like I could make such a short chapter after making you guys wait for so long because of my own school difficulties! I''ll work till there''s no tommorrow!!! ***************************************************************** -Time when Kevin bows- "We''ll do it" The blond one knelt after hearing our circumstances. Wow~! He''s so noble and charming just doing this for us~! "..." not. I remember learning in history class that there is no such thing as pure altruism. I noticed just for a split second, the lustful look in his eye. He did well to hide it. But it was still there. It was very different from the spectacles gaze. This one was more dark and creepy. Unlike the ridiculous openly and pure perverted gaze from spectacles. I noticed the other 2 I singled out looking at him as if they were used to him and knew his ulterior motives. Hmmm this blond boy although handsome, just got bumped down a little in my book. Father asks who he is, and he replies. "Who are you, young man?" "I am somewhat the leader of the group of people behind me. And we will consider helping your kingdom for a reward." Hmm.. Okay... so I guess it''s okay to trust him now... he''s also handsome... No! Even if he''s not a suspicious altruist, he''s gotta have some other ulterior motive. I got a shiver down my back. After father shows them the [STATUS WINDOW], all look surprised, even ''him'' but surprisingly I noticed that the other 2 didn''t look surprised and instead had a look of ecstasy about them? After a while, everybody was crowded around Kevin, I learned his name during the introductions.I also learned the other 2 were Colby and Kris. And it seemed he was the rumored [pure light hero]!!! Hmm... If I can correct his bad parts... He''s just the perfect person! Hehehehe... Stolen story; please report. And then it happened. It was horrible. And I wanted to do it over. I wanted to have been able to do at least something. I watched as Kevin put on a smirk, I watched as father gave permission for what he did, I wanted to argue but father would not risk the relationship with the [pure light hero]. I watched as they dashed at Kris and Spectacles Colby. I watched as Kris was punched and vomited blood I watched as Colby fended off attackers, I watched as Kris manifested mana in his feet. It was strange, he had no training, and yet, he actually was able to unconsciously gain the [mana manipulation] skill. I watched as Kevin showed a nasty face, But I also watched as Kris showed a stupid grin and struggled to hang on wilst shoving his middle finger at Kevin. And I had the strangest sense, that they would still be alright as they fell. *********************** -After 2 Human Corpses were reported missing- "Cheers!" I watched numbly as I tiptoed the heroes that were participating in tonights banquet. How dare they act like they had not just tried to murder a fellow human?! I, Princess Lisanna Opial Rudolph, the 3rd will not let this go! *shinng* Finally, the magic code on the vault glowed and disappeared. I reached in and scrolled the scrolls with my eyes. Pun was intended. I saw one in the back and reached for it. And, I was out! ********************* I quickly crept back to the party and opened the scroll. I pointed it at Kevin. Why, you ask? Why, the scroll I had was a [Dark Title Revealing Scroll] It was rare and was quite expensive, but I had a very big hunch. Annnd It came!
[You have used a [Dark Title Revealing Scroll]! Now, you will reveal all of the targets hidden titles, If the target has hidden targets, good for you! If not, To bad!
Number of Kevin''s hidden titles: 3 Jerk, Playboy, Conner
Title: Jerk You are a jerk to others and have bullied for years...Jerk! -10 dexterity +10strength
Title: Playboy You have wooed many Girls! Girls will feel an unnatural attractiveness to you and want to be with you! May not work if Girl has a special dislike of you, or if girl is aware of your power. +10 intelligence -100 popularity with males or +100 respect with males. They will either hate or respect your skill of lure!
Title: Conner You have twisted the truth with your words to not lie, but to con! Now, you can woo even more girls in circumstances! -infinite popularity with anybody if found out
I gasped, wow. I am nooooot marrying a guy like him! Even if he has the pure [light] element, it doesn''t matter. An element of [light] used to murder is still murder by the element of [light]. An Element of [darkness] used to save people is still just an element used for good. I don''t care if he''s some hotshot [pure light hero] I''ll never marry some guy like that! I rush to my room, I ask Hilda, the head maid, to prepare a horse for me. I gather my allowance and store it in my bag. Hilda, after hearing my situation, understands. She is, after all, like a big sister to me. I was raised with her. Even though these few days I had been daydreaming about the hero, I had kind of ignored her. Now, for the big show. I rush into the banquet room and stand on the table. Thrust the scroll down and say, "All of you cowards! You murderers! I''ll never think of you as heroes!" I turn to father, "And Father! You disappoint me! To take 2 innocent peoples lives for another''s! An element is like a knife, It can be used to save someone, then It''s justified! If it''s used for murder then that element means nothing! I don''t care about you guys or that [pure light hero]! He''s not even a good normal person! Look at that scroll on the table! After that I jump out of the window crazily. But we''re about 600 meters above the ground... And Hilda uses Air magic to bring me down softly. The others don''t know this of course, so I''m satisfied with the scare I gave them. I get into the carrage and ride down into the night. My thoughts drift to Kris... I don''t even know him... He might not even be alive... But nonetheless, my thoughts slowly drift to him. I wonder why? ********************** That night, many guards were deployed into the kingdom looking for something. Nobody knew why, except for the ones directly involved with the royal palace... ********************** Sorry for the sloppy chapter! Took me a few days to write this... I really can''t take on the perspective of a girl... I really have no experience with that stuff... Let me quote Yukiro from (LNW) "Social activity? What is that? Some kind of disease? If so I don''t wanna catch it!" At least, I think it was like that... I''m to tired to bomb... bye~ Ch.5-"TRAINING" Hey Guys~ I''m finally settling into school, and have finally decided to not be a jerk, so..... DRUMROLL PLEASE!!!! DLDLDLDLDLDLDLDLDLDLDLD......... Chaps will from now on be at the rate of about a week! That''s what my rate was anyways, but I''ll probably find a day of the week/weekend to specifically release on. Buuuuut I guess It''ll be at about a week. Yay! \ I have no idea if anybody likes this story but we''re already at over 100 follows and 25 likes!!! I''m so motivated! Thankyou for whatever your doing to have people like my story great magic god! I mean, god. Cause I''m actually christian. Now, I''ve decided to do girl and boy pov''s at a 1:9 ratio. I really suck at portraying a girl''s feelings, (They are mysterious creatures) (no offense to girls) buuuuut I''ll try once in a while! Now, then, the bigggg anouncement! Since I''ve actually been trying in school, my parents gave me back my bombs! WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAA!!! ALsooo I''m really happy because I''m sure you''ve heard of this guy: The almost one month break from Change: New World is over! Before I started writing I loved reading that story and was really depressed when he suddenly stopped for almost a month! If you guys want something that has a lot more chapters and a really cool plot (Nah, My plot can''t be beat) go and read that after you''re done with mine. Now, I realized I haven''t really started on my chapter yet, so I''ll be typing like THIS. Sorry for the Long random rant this time! As compensation, I''ll give you a hint at what happens. *Cough* Colby kicking Kris down a hole *Cough*. Enjoy the Chapter~ or... Don''t enjoy the chapter... I mean, I can''t blame people for not liking a rushed chap.
-Right after a shouting of "Hell Yeah!" was heard outside Demon Lord''s Castle- "NOOOOOO!!!" I thought as time slowed down, and I slowly fell down the hole. I look up to see Colby smirking down at me... "YOU BASTARRRRRRD!!!" I yelled as I shot straight up from unconsciousness. Let''s rewind a bit...
-Moments before Kris falls- "Well, what do we do now?" I ask, since, we like, don''t have any experience... Gramps suddenly puts on a grin befitting of a Demon Lord? What? Why is he looking at me? Huh? Why not Colby? Why Me?! Both of you will be going through 1 week of training before you go on your first mission. Your role will be... an assassination squad of sorts. Uoooo... so cooooool!!!! I opened my mouth to exclaim in awe... but before anything, in a flash- everthing went dark. Actually, no. My improved senses and kinetic vision barely saw it but gramps took out a small round pill and dashed forward and forced it down my throat. Why? Before I could even finish thinking that thought I was falling down a trapdoor that had opened under me and gazing at the Gramp''s and Colby''s faces that smirked down at me.
-Presently- "DAMMMMIIIIITTTTT!!!!!" After rolling in the grass in frustration for a while, I decided to take notice of my surroundings. Hmmm.... grass? Wait.... whoa...whoa...just...whoa... There.... there''s no sun? Instead, a few hundred meters above me... are HUGE shining crystals... It''s so coooooooooolllllll.... and I just noticed how nice the grass feels... It''s so fluffffyyyyyy..... wow... ah... I should just like, lie down for a while... "..." "..." "..." "WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!~!" Right when I''m about to drift off to pleasant dream land, all of a sudden the hole I fell from above me, a shrill whistle sounds. Stolen novel; please report. "Huh? When did I get so HIGHHHHH!!!" I''m like 50 meters above the ground right now?! Before I can react, whistling grew louder and a huge rubber ball came flying at me. Good thing my stats were boosted, so I immediately caught the ball in a cool fashion... not. I couldn''t even react and the ball got me right in my face. It knocked me right off the huge flower that I was standing on and made me do a flip backwards for a few meters. As I fell, the thought occurred: wait, I''m 50 meters above the ground... how the freaking smit am I supposed lannnnnnnnd?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Right, right, I ummmm.... uhh... cheezits rice! Authors Note: I have edited the swears and bad words for ur convenience ^_^ I''m going to smash into the ground... and die... "Damniiiiitittttttt!!!" I bring both my hands back and imagine a certain rubber-man performing a certain gomu gomu bazooka attack. I''m imitating him, but hey, I''m in serious trouble!!! "*KABAM*" "..." "OUUUUCHHHHHH!!!" Oh my gooooooooooood it hurrrrrrrrtssssss I think I dislocated my shoulderrrrrsssssssssssss
-Above the traphole kris fell through- "Alright, he should almost fallen into the [Fluff Flower'']s trap by now... Colby! Throw this ball containing a message for kris down that hole as hard as you can right now!" "..." "Okay..."
-presently- Okay... I''ve finally calmed down... I just fixed my shoulders by blasting my mana as hard as I could in the opposite direction, now... I am scared. Very, very scared. I was like just walking around and getting used to the bizarrness of it all when suddenly! A freaking huge hippo appeared! It was actually a monster in the shape of a hippo... and after it appeared, I hid of course! But wait, there''s more! The hippo laid down to sleep... and the fluffy plant that I had been sleeping on, rose... then, the hippo was flung into the air, and the plant FREAKING GREW TEETH AND ATE IT IN ONE BITE! There was blood everywhere... I''m scared mommy... Oh, right. Gotta go try to make some clothes. It seemed that they were ripped off by the impact of my mana... wait. Now that I think about it... not only have I gotten leaner muscles... now that I''m naked I''ve really noticed that it grew... RIght! Clothes! Clothes come first! Wait, food, nooo wait! A weapon!... Hmmmm I can''t decide... ohhhhh how about... hmm... weapon. If I don''t have a weapon, I can''t get food. And there''s nobody around anyways. Hmm... yeah, clothes come last. Wait... what is that rubber ball next to me? Hmmm... I''ll open it... ",,," *Pop!* "OH MY FRUPPING CHEEZITSSSSSSSSSS!!!" end...
Seriously, it''s the end of this chapter. I am overwhelmed with reading all sorts of web novels... and I might have made this longer if someone hadn''t wanted me to just joke about the end and then add more... Anyways! For the main stuff. The stuff I''ve been busy is reading these awesome light novels: 1. Tate no Yussha (completed) 2. Konjiki no Wordmaster (ongoing with about 160 something chaps) 3. Close Combat Mage (is pretty slow but still good) 4. Zhan Long (Very long, I suggest planning a half week long all nighting session in the holidays). If you don''t know about these amazing reads just google the names it''s amazzingnggggg. (Not as amazing as me though) SEE YA! (BOMBS AWAY!) Ch.6-"Weaver" Ah! Hello! Now, You''ve probably been wondering... what kind- of class Kris will get, right? Well... he will be (totally not cliche) a speed class that specializes in flash movement attacks. Attention, he won''t be a rogue, or a thief, or an assassin or whatever those speed types are. I plan to give him a very stupid class name, but it will be very unique... nothing about bombs! Nope! Not a thing about bombs this time! I''m just enjoying the fact that I''ve made it to over 120 followers and over 25 favorites! As a reward, I''ll drop a big bomb at the end! (no not the explosive kind)... Enjoy!
-Presently- "HOLY FRUPPING CHEEZITS!!!" Now, you might ask why I am screaming right after popping open a rubber ball. Well, the thing is, IT FREAKING EXPLODED... in my face. To make it worse, there was confetti and glitter in it. Nothing can surprise me now... I guess I''ll just first see what this is... I notice the stuff on the ground, Hmm... there''s package... 2 cans... 1 large plastic sealed bowl that looks suspiciously like instant ramen, and a letter? I open the letter first. And start reading:
Dear, A certain White haired brat, 1. If You are reading this, then it seems that you have survived the [Fluffflowers] and the [Hippopondos]. 2. You''re probably wondering why your good, kind, noble grampy dropped you into that monster valley, right? Well, I''m pretty sure you won''t die, and good experience for you too! 3. Be grateful that we have sent you some provisions. You get some clothes, 1 survival canister, 1 bath in a can, and 1 instant stroodle bowl. 4. Also, try the spell [Inventory], our researchers told us that the summoned have this unique spell! Best of luck! Sincerely, The Demon Lord
"..." "Nothing surprises me anymore... and I don''t care anymore..." Is what I said... but the next time I see that Gramps ... I''ll fruppin kill him! First, I try the [Inventory] spell. It''s pretty convenient, and I''m sure it''ll come in handy in the future. As expected, it was a 10x10 grid. I experimented with the grass and it seems that you can actually stack items of the same type in 1 box. After messing around for a while, I realized that you can only stuff 99 of the same type of object in a box... huh, well, I guess I''m really grateful for this! So I am using this shower in a can... And it seems that it''s actually containing a bubble of water? I mean, It''s like... water... but it''s also a bubble... At any rate, It was actually really refreshing to use that water bubble, It was really, really refreshing... it was like sitting in a magical bubble of water... yeah... that''s the perfect depiction of it ... oh.... wait... Never mind... After my "shower", I took out the package, and opened it. Hmm... there were some plain black jeans? ... but the inside was kind of soft and flexible yet also really sturdy... Hmmm also... there was a short sleeved black hoodie. Huh, I guess it did make sense to wear these If I was going to be part of some assassination squad of some sort... oh wait, what are these belts? Hmmm... it seemed like... a normal comfortable belt.. I mean, It did have these two wierd contraption wheel thingy''s but... whatever. I put all the stuff on, and I looked actually pretty cool! Except for the boxers... for some reason the boxers had oranges on them... Ahem! Anyways... " *GROWWWLLLLL* " My stomach... come to think of it, I haven''t eaten anything since I was summoned into this seemingly amazing world... wait... how is my stomach so loud? "Huh, ..." "Wait... I''m actually not hungry..." "Sooo what was that sound?" I slowly turn my head hoping against whatever force that decided to curse me. Huh, It''s another one of those Hippo things... huh. Wait, Hippos are herbivores! Yeah... that''s right... I don''t need to worry... maybe I can be friends with it! Unfortunately, it seems that not all things in this otaku-dreamland are "awesome" or "Cool". "ROAAAARRRRGHGHGHGHGHGHHHHHH!!!" "Um... uh... nice to meet you hippo... ummm... uhhh... what are those extremely sharp teeth forrrr? Uhh... nice knowing you... BYEEEEEEEE!!!" I start sprinting. Needless to say I gained lots of more ground across the plains due to my stats. Well, actually, it wasn''t really umm... running... It was more like, dashing. Some sort of instantaneous movement. But of course, this meant that I could not do a super marathon across this wide valley. There were some other Hippo somethings around and I wanted to take care of it smoothly. On the other hand... "WHY DA HYELL IS THAT FAT HIPPO SO FAST?!?!" At this rate... It''ll catch up to me and I''ll die! Okay, I''m still going at a steady pace, so that hippo thingy won''t get me for at least 10 minutes! First, take stock and analyze the situation! Lessee! I can''t just blast my mana out of my arms like last time! At the time, I was falling from 50 meters up! If I do it at the hippo, It''ll 1. Mostly likely kill it which is good, but 2. It will probably dislocate my shoulders, and send me flying through the air due to propulsion!!! Hmmm... gotta make it so that I don''t die... or at least so that I don''t get hurt... gotta make the power... concentrated? Ah! I know! I read a manga where this defunctional super strength guy just puts all of his super strength into 1 finger so that he can minimize the damage of strain on his body! I try putting mana into my fingers... but to my surprise, a weird colored string of came out! What da hyelllllll!!! Am I a frupping spider or something?! As I finished experimenting with this, it was actually quite comical, me making cats cradles while experimenting with my mana string while dashing across the plains, and then a huge hippo chasing behind me. Ah. Got it. My legs are at their limit... but I found a loophole in my [Arcane Mana Manipulation]! If people can materialize mana into fireballs and smit, then I can too! It just has to be within one inch of me! So I can just start pouring mana into the mana string that I made... then condense it... tada! It''s only a string, but it''s still pretty impressive! And onse it''s condensed to a certain degree... Boom! It solidifies! And once it does that... even if I cut off the supply of mana from me to the string, it will last for a degree of time! This story originates from a different website. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there. Kay!~ I have exactly 60 seconds before I run out of stamina! Taking stock... Mana string, Some kinda dash movement, superhuman strength... heh, the next course of action should be ob-vi-ous~. I turn around, and prepare for the incoming charge. Hmmm... alright. First, I quickly make some mana string, tie it to a nearby tree, hmm... maybe... yeah. I make use of my instantaneous movement, and make a lonnggg string of mana! Then, I dash around sticking parts of the mana onto different trees and the ground around me, what resulted was a trap that I had seen in an anime. It was supposed to be made of wire string and once the target charged into it, they would get cut to pieces! "Ahahahahaa!!! Come and get me ya stupiiiiid stupiiiiid hippo!" I stood in front of the Hippo monster, and of course let it charge right through me. Ya know? I thought it would be pretty hard since I had no experience bullfighting or whatever, but thanks to my instant movement instinct, the hippo-thing safely charged into the wire trap without a hitch... Or so I thought, apparently... hmm... the mana strings are nooooot sharp...at all. Like, they only got the hippo tangled. Ugh... well... I can try to light a fire under it? It''s a good idea, but I don''t have anything to cut up the hippo meat with... Suddenly, a window appears before me!
It seems you have an affinity for either one of the 2 classes! 1. Light weaver: Your strings of mana will carry the power of healing, light, and life! 2. Shadow weaver: Your strings of mana will carry the power of attack, and shadows! Take a pick! Shadow Weaver || Light Weaver
Oho? Well, both are useful, but just thinking about the coolness factor, it would definitely be better to weave shadows... plus, I can''t kill anything without a weapon here, so here goes! I select... [Shadow Weaver]. (duh) *ding!*
You have selected Shadow Weaver! You have gained + 10 to dexterity, and +10 to speed! Take note, this class prevents you from using any other magic aside from you new active skill, [Shadow Weave]!
Ahhh... glad thats over... Hm, as if I had done this a thousand times, I had total control over my strings, they had turned an ominous black color, but also seemed a bit... not there... as if... it was a shadow? Hmmm... I move the strings around and as if I had known all along, will them to change shape. It slowly whirled, and condensed... into... a dagger? You could see that it was made of strings, but it really was a dagger.... Time to test it out!
Hour later... Whew...! It took me a lot of hard thinking to learn how to manipulate those strings! And now, I have finally killed the hippo-thing. Hmmm It was a monster... and I did get an exp notification... but I guess I''m still not used to it. Well, now, I have a hunch what to do with those contraptions on my belt, but we''ll see! I take a look at my new class:
You have selected Shadow Weaver! You have gained + 10 to dexterity, and +10 to speed! Take note, this class prevents you from using any other magic aside from you new active skill, [Shadow Weave]!
"Wait..."
Take note, this class prevents you from using any other magic aside from you new active skill, [Shadow Weave]!
"..." "..." "..." "DAMMITTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT!!!"
-Back upstairs- "Hahhh... I wonder what happened to that brat... "Did he figure out the catch to the class I led him to take? Whelp, whatever, time to PARTY!!!" (Demon King)
Little did Kris know... that this would be the start of a battle-legend later on... of the Demon Hero: "Shadow Weaver" and of his achievements during the [Great Mana War] But that''s for another time!
Well, I think I''ll find drawings and pictures of Kris''s equipment, and also give you guys an explanation on his "weaving" skill. Also, even though I believe I did a good job, I get the feeling I''m wrong, so please put in a triple dose of criticism! Also, tell me if you like to seperate the story with lines like this, or back to star things. (bombs away) Explanation Sorry for whoever actually cares about this story, but no chap this week. Insteadddddddd we have an extra special explanationnnnn!!!
Now, I''m really crappy at integrating info into the plot, so I''ll just explain Kris''s mana string theory and powers blahblahblah... also I''ll give you guys description of what I imagined his equipment to be.
1. Mana String. Look, this is a simple technique in the world Kris is in, but nobody uses it, and everybody looks down on it, because #1. Nobody has actually tried manafesting/ solidifying the "mana string" before. Kris actually concentrated and compressed his mana, so there is no need to sustain the strings because after being compressed and concentrated to a certain degree, it will solidify, or manifest in the real world. This mana string also conveniently sticks to anything if you channel mana in certain spots because everything contains mana, so something made of un- hostile mana will stick if given enough mass. Now, nobody in that world has even thought of doing this, and even if they did, it would have no use. But the world "system" recognized Kris''s "wire trap" made of mana string''s ingenuity and offered him a [class]. The only reason that Kris''s mana string was able to kill the [hippopondo] was because of his newly aqquired class. 2. Shadow Weaver class. Find this and other great novels on the author''s preferred platform. Support original creators! This class turns the original "pacifist" nature of mana-string into something that is still very much quiet, but still dangerous. The class skill allows Kris full manipulation of his mana string but his string is now (transformed by shadow-weaver) very attack based. For instance, the blade last chapter that he used to skin and kill the [hippopondo] was just lots and looooots of condensed manastring combining to form a blade completely made from the [Shadow Weaver] class. My imagining is that at the bottom of the blades handle, there will be constantly moving [Shadow string] flowing out.
As for Equipment, all he has right now is: 1. Black Hoodie with Short sleeves not unlike a t-shirt, except a bit thicker. 2. The softish Jeans that are soft but also a bit rough on outside purpose will be explained with next chap. 3. two belts with contraptions. Those are actually very much like the string holder that Lubbock from Akame ga Kill ? used. No, Kris does not have wire globes, no, he does not have the ability to make a perimeter proximity trap. Kris only has two belts that have the spinning string holders on them. (I''ll explain next chap.)
Well, that''s the explanation I hope It''s easy to understand.... See-ya! (bombs away) Ch.7-"Tele-Circled Away" Hello guys... and girls... so, I was wondering, are any of you guys feminist? or just meminist? Cause personally I am a feminist. Cause little life-story, I got hit by another guy, it kinda hurt, I pissed off a girl... and my shins have broken like they were kicked once: cracked, kicked twice: and they... snapped. I value my shins and don''t want to let anybody else suffer the same fate, so everybody!!! STAY AWAY FROM GIRLS!!! WE ARE THE ANTI-SOCIALISTSSSSSSSSSS"... anyway... don''t piss of any girls that are capable of dodging bombs and shit. I see we''ve made it to over 155 followers! And right at 30 Favorites! I thought that my story would die but it''s alive... it''s alive!!! It''s alive!!! Also, I will start to add caption to the dialogue. And big lines for seperation... Cause I guess it''ll be easier for readers? Check the one-shot that I just crappily put together HERE. After that, just going to mention, either thursday, or weekends, will be my release days. Friday is a weekend day for me. Okay, enough rambling, enjoy the chap. !
-3 days after hell valley drop off- "I''m depressed..." (Kris) ...
-Back upstairs- "wow... right after he realized he couldn''t use magic he got all depressed... I don''t think he''s moved in 3 days except to experiment or hunt, he just always returns to that spot to do nothing..." (Demon Lord) "It''s no biggy, Kris will find something good about the situation, he usually does!" (Colby) "Yeah, yeah... back to your hell training Colby... tehehehe... I''ll train you till you''d rather trade places with kris..." (Purple Hair) "Oho? Don''t you think that umm... you''re rushing things? I mean... uhh we haven''t really got intimate yet..." (Colby) "Oh, no... I meant... the magical combat hell training course that I specially made for you... fufufu... you''ll wish you were dead..." (Purple hair) "NUUUUUUUUU!!! I''M SORRY FOR MAKING FUN OF YOU KRISSSSSS!!! ... GAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" (Colby)
-5th day- Huh. I don''t know why, but I don''t really feel as depressed as before... who cares. Now... gah! I''m hungry! Just what was the reason I got so depressed? Huh... I can''t remember... I go off into the woods to look for a [Hippopondo]. It seems that they are carnivorous and like eating animals smaller than themselves. But actually just laze around since they''re afraid of the [Fluffflowers]. So, I keep on looking till I find one... Oh! I found one! It''s lazing around like most of them do. I quickly launch my strings. I had eventually figured out how to use the contraptions on my belts, cause it was really similar to that anime I watched, except it''s really hard to use the contraptions. I''ll just call them [String Spinners]for now... Anyways, Today I was experimenting and the up part, is that I can store my strings instead of making them immediately. Because it takes me a few hours to make a full set of string, so I just store everything in the [String Spinners] for now... another pro is that when I launch out my strings, it is #1. Faster, and #2. ... WAY FREAKING COOLERRRRRRRRRRRRR Like, it starts shooting out the strings really fast and then I could control, with [Shadow Weaving]. So if I make use of the [String Spinner]''s speed, and my [Shadow Weaving]''s control, I theoretically have no openings! I''ve also discovered lots of different ways to use string now. For one, I can change the String''s quality to up to 3 different types. First, of course, I can make parts of my string super sharp. Second, I can make it really sticky, Third, I can make really hard string. The hard string can be formed into stuff, but to make something even as big as only a lunch-box sized cube, I''d have to use up most of my current string. I also got curious and examined my string dagger. It is consisted of Lot''s of hard string, with sticky string weaving through some parts, and the surface is coated with all really sharp string, except the handle. Which is made of sticky string. I made it a bit less sticky so that the grip is good, but doesn''t get in my way. So, I have a really o.p weapon so far right now... YAYYYYYYYYYYYY! But... what''ll I do when it breaks? It seems that I could make another one if I wanted, but the first was just created by the "system" maybe as a freebee with the [shadow weaver] class? who cares... there''s no wayyyyy that it''ll break. Authors note: kekekee... this is what we call foreshadowing... kekeke... "ACHOO!" (Kris) Huh? Why did I just feel a strange chill on my back? Ah. The [Hippopondo] woke up. Lunch time! I seem to appear behind it as it rises to look at me. Well, if you have good eyes, you can see me stepping on some pre-laid string, and kinda slingshotting myself at it... anyways, to a normal person... I look pretty cool! (If I say so myself). Then I slash as hard as I can at it''s neck, but as I expected, it had a pretty thick hide. Like my previous hunts, I only did this to annoy it. Then I used my dashing speed to get away from it. Now, as routine, I led it to a set of trees. Then I quickly dashed through doing seemingly pointless maneuvers and flips. But as soon as the [Hippopondo] charged through, it seemingly got cut up by invisible swords! While it struggled painfuly through the sharp wire string trap I had set-up before hand, I lifted it''s chin and found the weak spot. It was hidden by a flap that was fat, hard, and rough. But then, there was a soft fleshy spot which was presumed the throat. I mercilessly slit the [Hippopondo]''s throat with my dagger and manipulated the wire trap to return to my spinner''s. I started skinning.... Phew! Finally done! I take out some firewood from my inventory. Cutting trees is really easy now, due to [Shadow Weaving], but it took me a whole day to figure out how to make a fire... I just ended up starting it with an old fashioned spinning a twig on wood to build up friction and make a fire... I wish I could be a mage and shoot fireballs... then making a fire would be easy.... sigh... I''m depressed... then... all of a sudden... I''m about 50 meters in the air again. "Huh?" (Kris) "Oh... another [Fluffflower]... sigh..." (Kris) I take my dagger and whip it at the center of the gigantic flower, where a mouth with gruesome vines are wriggling about. The dagger flies true, and strikes right into the core of the flower. It spurts green slime, and slowly dies... Or so I thought. Cause I didn''t really notice that I had not gotten an exp notice yet. And right when I prepared to pull out my dagger, it happened. The seemingly dead [Fluffflower] whipped out it''s vines at me and I was suddenly in a really dangerous position. Uh... hmmm... stay calm... right. I release my strings and lo-and-behold, it looked like a gigantic flower holding something in it''s vines, except the vines had dark strings shooting out and spinning around. I quickly spin around my strings around me and cover my self. Ugh... I think my left arm was squeezed too tight... damn it''s broken. I quickly pull out my dagger and swing it way behind me. Using the momentum like a sling, I yank the strings connected to the dagger and it changes direction headed straight for the [Fluffflower]. "*SHINK*" [Ding]!
+125 EXP!
[Ping-ling-ling~]!
Level Up!
"Whew~... " (Kris)
-Later- Whew! I managed to spit-roast another piece of [Hippopondo-Meat]! It''s surprisingly delish! I look around. It seems that I''ve cleared this area quite a lot... there''s no sign of any monster''s near me. I take stock on my inventory: [/tr]
INVENTORY:
WeaponsEquipmentItemsFood
"..." "Huh." (Kris) I go to press [Weapons] first:
Weapons:
StringSpinners:(equipped)NoneNone
NoneNoneNonenone
Well, so it seems that you can equip or have a max of 4 weapons ready to use or equip instantly. The rest are in [Inventory: Items]. It also appears that [StringSpinners] are counted as a weapon, but I don''t have anything else... T-T... moving on, if you click on a weapon like this....
StringSpinners
Rank:SDurability:Very High
Description:
2 spinning contraptions on belts meant for storing and launching string. Made out of enchanted igneous and enchanted metal. Seems to be crafted for the purpose of fighting instead of utility.
I see, it describes the weapon, and gives you the rank and quality. Because even with a world with a supposed "system" there''s no way that an exact digit of attack power exists, or exact value for durability exists. For example, if you took good care of a weapon, it would last longer, but who knows how long. And sure, maybe a weapon has a limited damage number, but you could use a legendary sword to lightly touch someone and instead of hurting them, it would only be a light touch. So I guess this is the last reason I believe that this isn''t a dream and the reality is real, so to speak. Next, I press the Equipment... Stolen from its rightful place, this narrative is not meant to be on Amazon; report any sightings.
Equipment:
Combat Hoody-(Black)(equipped)Comfy-Combat-Jeans-(Black)(equipped)
NoneNoneNoneNone
NoneNoneNoneNone
. Okay, that''s what I expected, and once again, I can equip up to six pieces of equipment. I realized that the flimsy boxers I donned underneath did not count as equipment. That makes sense. Also, due to Inventory''s effects it seems that any [equipment] donned will magically fit me. Unlike my boxers which will fit whatever size they are. While this is good, I really wanted to like, wear lots of enchanted rings... wait, that''d look lame... Anyways... Items. I currently have...

"...huh?" (Kris) there''s... an arrow at the bottom? Now, just like any other person would do when given a strange symbol to press on... I press it. Okay, that''s not a safe choice, I admit it... but oh well! Curiosity cured the cat! Or... something. So, I press it. And lo-and-behold! It moved! Holy cow! I can scroll! It just keeps on going down and down! I check the food, and it''s the same thing as items, but I can only have 20 food slots, where if it''s the same food, I can store 20 of it. Still, the scrolling thing is cool... Anyways! Phew! Taking observation! Nothing near... check! Taking Stock! Just did that... check! Next! ESCAPEEEEEEE! Well, there should be some kind of elevator here... cause I feel in here through a trap-door to get here... Besides, there are no more monsters to fight... I''ve reached level 10 now... I think that''s like, around above average right? But with my skills and stacked stats, I think I should be able last against a level 25! The monster population is so depleted I think I should at at least leave a few so that I can come back to train another time... So I wander. ... "finally~..." (Kris) after wandering around for who knows how long... I found a strange white circle slowly revolving around on a stone platform... this is it! The rumored teleportation circles! I saw these in rpg game''s churches all the time! There should be a linked circle upstairs or something, finally... I''ll get my revenge on that Gramps and Colby! "Kekekekee..." (Kris) I chuckled evilly, imagining my revenge as I stepped into the circle and a blinding white light engulfed me.
-Back up stairs- "Papa! It seems that Kris has finished training and the teleportation circle that was set to activate once he finished off 80% of the monster population has activate!" (Violet Hair???) "Huh? Don''t interrupt me! I''m going out to play some slots!" (Demon Lord) "Uhhh... master?" (Colby) "Yes, stuuuudent?" (Violet Hair???) "Okay, from what you taught me the past week... fufufu... shouldn''t there be a connected circle somewhere here?" (Colby) "..." "Mr. Demon Lord?" (Colby) "Papa?" (Violet Hair???) "...I forgot l-o-l." (Demon Lord) .... "...sigh.. you''re always doing this... so what''s going to happen to him now?" (Violet Hair???) "I dunno.... anyways... this is all part of the PLAN!!!Dun-DUn-DUNNNN" (Demon Lord) "..." "What? To cliche? Fine. Anyways, this is his first mission. He''ll gain experience by travelling back here. Hmmm... Luckily, he should end up as far as the borders between Demons and Humans... but... since I got lazy... theres... a small chance... that he could just end up behind enemy lines." (Demon Lord) "..."
Annnnd that''s the end of the chapter~ I had a hard time editing the tables since I like editing them manually with code: ya know.. [/table] [tds][trs] blahblahblah.... all that crap. Buuuuut I believe in quality over quantity, so I guess it''ll just be slow... See-ya guys (hopefully) next week! (bombs away). Ch.8-"Thundering Down" Helloooooo~ Sorry for being late... I''m really motivated! In spite of the lack of fans T-T, I will still write not for anybody, but for my own enjoyment. So I''ll just take the story along and let some polls control the next direction, but the rest is up to my mood! So I guess that was a short rant, but there''s not really anything to complain about this week... And the haters gonna hate, but this story is going wherever the hell I want it to. Wait... bootngexe.up...dangareros999999....... *WHIRRRRRRRRR* {SARCASM MODE} [ON]: Just a note to the haters out there... cough*only one person*cough*Ugoki*cough* you can go and fucking hate on your own. If you don''t like it then don''t read it. You don''t have to go and waste ur time thinking of reallllly original stuff to criticize with: "Fuck off", "Fuck you" etc... whatever "original" insults you post here will only earn you a whole lot of rants. Well, I''m all vented, note: when u don''t like to reade the rants... theres something that humanity invented for impatient people... it''s called.... SKIPPING THE RANT Whew~ Alllllright. Now I got the hater problem done with... Enjoy~.
-Present time- Just a week after the national summoning, in a forest on a mountain overlooking the nearby human capital, there were some reports of something humanoid donning white-hair falling from the sky after a bright flash of light appeared at approximately around early morning. But due to the guards patrol time-frame to be as early as that, only some people that woke up abnormally early witnessed it. And the people that did witness were too small, so it was regarded as lunatic ravings.
-Morning- "Mmmm... (Yaawwwwwn)... what... where am I..." (Kris) I open my eyes slowly. Only to find another pair of eyes staring back. And these eyes didn''t seem human. They were golden yellow, having a shiny luster that was almost energy like, instead of the shiny mineral kind of luster. What I saw beyond that, caused me to take a double take. I blinked, looked again, and instantly blushed. Why? Because those eyes belonged to a girl. She looked like a ten-year old, with waist length golden yellow hair, which covered one of her eyes. Now, normally nothing would make me react to a girl, because the ones from before in my previous world all bullied me for Kevin. They had a dark maddened and ugly look in their eyes that couldn''t be hidden no matter how much makeup they showered onto their faces. But this girl, she was... not like an angel, but really cute... and her eyes. They weren''t like any girls eyes that I had known. They were curious, but also kind-of dull. Like she didn''t really have much emotion. Plus, she had an ahoge! How is that possible! She has an ahoge! Authors note: (Basically a huge cow-lick of hair at the top of her hair) Adding to her noticeable chest... Isn''t this what Colby would call an oppai loli?! Of course, none of this was enough to make me blush. Hmph, do you think the anti-social me would be made to blush so easily? It''s the fact that... she wasn''t wearing any clothes. I mean, who wouldn''t? "Um... hello... do you know where am I?" (Kris) "..." She tilted her head slowly. "I dunno..." (???) She quietly muttered. Hm, okay, location is unknown... I''m all alone with this girl... Wait! I''m not thinking of any bad things, don''t worry. Even if she did manage to make me blush, She''s only a kid, I''m no lolicon! But I''m a guy with a good heart! I check my belts. Good, it seems that I didn''t lose anything. I start spinning around my strings and focus on making something... The girl just looks at me curiously while I spin. Wow... she''s cute! ... A-Anyway! "..." Unauthorized usage: this tale is on Amazon without the author''s consent. Report any sightings. After, weaving for a while, I finish. It''s a simple biggish... shirt thing? No wait... I alter my weaving pattern and make something... Tadah! After about 30 minutes, I have made my first wearable thing! It''s a robe! It pretty much fits the description of a Mages robe. Except that it''s really simple. I look over, the girl''s eyes are sparkling, they''re fixated on the simple robe I made... wow. Ah! I got a fun idea... I toss it to her "Here, you can have this" (Kris) "R-Really?" (???) "...Yeah, you should put some clothes on" (Kris) Her ahoge almost seems to stand up, if she could wag a tail, I think she would. She immediately tries it on, and although a bit to big, I think it fits nicely. Seeing her eyes all shiny, I laugh a bit. Then I take note of our surroundings. It''s a really big forest clearing, and there doesn''t really seem to be any trace of civilization... "Where''s your family?" (Kris) She pauses. "Uuuu I don''t know... I can''t even remember if i had parents." (???) Hm, Okay... wait. What? I start to interrogate her. After that, I realize she''s really timid and quiet... or more like, just quiet, no timidness, I finally get the gist of it after a while. "So you just woke up around here and can''t remember anything?" (Kris) "En." (???) Isn''t this a little strange? This is a case of amnesia, right? Judging by the cruelty of this new world, she was probably traumatized by slavers killing her parents or some other cliche setting from my fantasy web-novels. Well, there could be a chance that she just hit her head and managed to survive in this place... I''ll just pick her up and drop her off somewhere. "Okay... can you remember your name?" (Kris) She seems to brighten up and recalls something. "... En, It''s Lucy" (Lucy) "Alright, for now, come with me Lucy, I''m Kris! I''ll take you over to your parents or maybe let a nearby town''s orphanage take you in!" (Kris) She seems to like that idea, so I guess that settles my plan. Huh, since when did I become this nice? Oh. I''m not nice. It''s just... the look in her eyes isn''t just innocent, it also carries a resemblance of the loneliness that I carried before I met Colby... oh. Now that''s a good idea! "Lucy, wanna be friends?" (Kris) "E-en! Ehehehe" (Lucy) Wow, She''s really smiling there. Well, I guess if I just had amnesia and appeared in a dark forest, the person who appeared suddenly and decided to be your friend must be like a hero. ... Huh? Isn''t she a bit tooooo happy? It''s like she''s absolutely brimming with energy... w-what? Her cowlick is realllllly standing up... i-it''s crackling? All of a sudden, electric energy starts appearing on her cow-lick. I look at the sky after a huge cracking sound is heard. I see it coming down on us... is a lightning bolt supposed to be that big? It''s like, 4 times my hight and width! And don''t tell me... Lucy made it appear?! ....ERHMAGHERDDDDDD!!! "Tehehehe~ I made a friend!~" (Lucy) "GYAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!" (Kris)
That morning, people spit out their breakfasts after hearing a sound akin to a great northern Thunder Lion''s roar, and then threw up whatever they had swallowed after hearing the terrifying sound that sounded like a banshee in an electric chair. (Same as modern electric chair, except powered by mana, or magic-stones)
The End! I really wanted to make someone who Kris won''t be able to tsukkomi to, and something similar to a really stoic loli, so I came up with Lucy. Take a guess at what element affinity she is! XD Ch.9-"Falling... the good kind" WATTUPPPP~ I''m sorry to be late... I blame school(so many quizzes + tests before thanksgiving) T_T, and preparing for thanksgiving. I had to go out and bye some snacks, plus that sparkling grape juice stuff that tastes amazing and yet my family only buys it on holidays... T_T... A~Ny~WAYYYYYYYYY I just finished Lucy''s status chart and prepare to be SHOCKED! Hehe, gettit? ENJOY YOUR NEW CHAPTERRRRRRRR WHEEEEEEEEeEEEEE (I''m so happy!)
-Unknown Forest near human capital- "ugh..." I''m on the ground, and why am I groaning? Well~, maybeeee it''s because of the fact that I feel like I''ve been killed 3 time over and am steaming on the ground right now~ "..." "GYAAGHGHHHHHHHH!!! IT FREAKIN HURTSSSSSS!!!" (Kris) WHAT THE HELL? Is Lucy even human in the first place? I immediately use [Analyze] on her to confirm my suspicions. I feel like I know this from a certain light novel I''ve read...

Stolen from Royal Road, this story should be reported if encountered on Amazon. Okay... well, that actually makes sense. So she''s... NOT HUMAN?!?!?!?!?!!! T-THAT MEANS I CAN''T JUST DROP HER OFF AT THE NEXT VILLAGE!!! According to common sense taken from manga and shit... either she''ll become a slave, or.... I don''t wanna know what. Damn. I glance to my right and Lucy seems oblivious to the trouble she''s caused... what? She''s playing in the dirt without a care in the world! If I had to guess, the [Lightning Rod] ability probably has to do with her ahoge... oh no. I quickly take a look at it... blahblahblah. Wait. Oho? I''ve obtained a really talented mage! Sh-she can draw any electric element attack to her ahoge and then absorb it? MY GOD! A-AND SHE CAN FREELY MANIPULATE ELECTICITYYYYYYY Moreover, I can tell that this would probably attract many problems from anybody, I mean, who wouldn''t want an OP little Oppai Loli slave? I recall Gramps mentioning the Human continent utilized slavery... I shudder at what other people would''ve done in my place... Whatever! This is too great! I was wondering how scary it would be to travel solo... but I can have a friend!!! Ahhhhhhahahahahahahahahaha!!! Welllllll then Colby! You''re being replaced by a little 12 year old oppai loli! HA! I dunno why she looks so small though, she looks 2 years younger than her actual age... As I contemplate this in mere seconds, I forget the "shock" of the recent events, hehe gettit? And start to get up. "Huh? Why''d you fall, Kris?" (Lucy) "Oh, just tripped~" (Kris) How does she not notice the huge lightning bolt I was struck by, my health actually decreased by like, a whole tenth! As we walk through the forest, sometimes me showing Lucy my new improvised cat cradle I [Shadow Weave]''ed, and doing a bunch of spectacular and awesome tricks (If I do say so myself) with my strings, I talk with her about many things. Except, she doesn''t know anything about herself... So I just kinda lost to my immature side and played with her, like teaching her how to fly... okay, okay, no- that''s not what happened. I kinda just threw her up into the air, and she would tumble around up there and she could actually float for a few seconds one time, where she started shimmering like there was static all around her, and then started floating for just a bit. Anyway, I lost track of the time, due to just walking and mucking around. I had to stay the quiet guy in class all the time, but now that there was someone that was nice, and innocent that I could just say whatever I wanted and talk a lot for once since it was a little kid. (Even though I kinda acknowledged deep down that she was only one year away from me). After finally walking for who knows how much time, we come to a cliff. And I can see the human capital there. As i contemplate my choices, I realize a really fun idea. This is where I shed my serious self... I''m gonna do whatever seems fun! But it has to be fun for Lucy, she''s really cute! Hm, as for safety... I can like, weave parachutes in mid-air or something.As I ask Lucy if she agrees to my plan, first, she seems confused, but as I say, "Do you wanna fly?" (Kris) Her ahoge stands up with a burst of excitement! "Yeah!" (Lucy) "Okay, here we go... Let''s Fly!" (Kris) I immediately grab her and jump with all my strength... Whoops, I immediately went up, like, 15 meters annnnnd the edge of the cliff tumbled down before we did. Still, this is awesome! I let out the inner kid self that I had been suppressing for who knows how long, and scream with Lucy, "WHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE" As I enjoy the peculiar sensation of zero gravity, I look up to see Lucy simultaneously screaming with delight as her robe flutters in the wind. Then, as the air force rushes past my ears, my blood rushes simultaneously... because just as I looked up, I realized. "Damn, should''ve weaved her some pants..." (Kris)
Hope ya-guys enjoyed it. I''m mostly just transforming into more happy and less sarcastic than before, so have no fear! Bad-ass Kris isn''t gone! See-ya next time~ Sorry...
