« Coward Cat - You all met that old Man too? »
« Average Man - Hey! What do you mean old man? He is a god and also our ancestor. Be resectful. »
« I am Mr. Cool - Chill dude..it's not a big deal. What he is saying is not wrong anyway. He was an old man. »
« Bahamut - Enough!! »
…
…
…
From the few chats, Max had managed to deduce one thing. Bahamut appeared to be the most respected one.
« Bahamut - Everyone introduce yourself. Your names can be kept a secret if it's not convenient to share »
…
…
After that, they had a long chat. No one was too keen on giving out their names and background information.
But still, he got some information about them.
Bahamut was from the Magic Academy of Capital, Orca. Average Man was from the Magic Academy of Ishtar. The Magic Academy of Ishtar was just above Arcane in rankings. And I am Mr. Cool from the Magic Academy of Ethera. This Academy was said to be on the same level as the one in the Capital. But since they lost last year's All-Academy Competition by a hair's breadth, they were placed second in terms of ranking.
..
« I am Mr. Cool - If things proceed smoothly, we will all meet soon »
« Average Man - Yeah, We are all from Magic Academy after all. Let's meet at the All-Academy competition. »
« Bahamut - You all, really have it going easy. Why don't you guys train and try to level up? Everyone state their Level »
« I am Mr. Cool - You expect everyone to be a freak of nature like you. »
« Average Man - I just reached Lv13. »

« I am Mr. Cool - I am at Lv 16 »
« Bahamut - I reached Lv 20. But you know what, I almost died in the recent encounter while investigating the Demonic Aura. »
« Coward Cat - You have received that quest too. »
Max too joined the conversation finding the topic familiar.
« Average Man - It's not only him. »
« I am Mr. Cool - Yes, it's giving me a headache too. I have recently found a link that connected it with kidnapping cases»
Seeing the chat, Max couldn't help but smile wryly. He had just completed the case and was lying in the bed with several fractures.
« Coward Cat - I completed the quest »
« Average Man - Are you serious? You just reached Lvl 10 »
« I am Mr. Cool - Yeah, I had to run away several times during the investigation of this case. The enemies are really strong. »
« Coward Cat - I just barely survived the quest due to a timely rescue. »
…
…
After that Max began to explain the situation he faced to them and warned them not to take it lightly as there might be a Master level Mage on their side too.
« Average Man - Thank God! I didn't dwell further into the case. How can they send a Master Level Mage? Isn't this overkill? »
« I am Mr. Cool - Seven Sins..what are they trying to achieve? Is there any link between the demons and them? »
« Average Man - What do I do? »
« Bahamut - You two don't make any move. I will handle the situation »
It looked like Bahamut didn't have an ordinary background.
« I am Mr. Cool - You don't need to worry. I have my ways »

« Bahamut - Are you sure? »
« I am Mr. Cool - Yes, I am »
Max could only let out a sigh of relief. It was good for them to have a strong backing. Since they were basically in the same boat now.
« Average Man - Um.u..I still need help though.»
« Bahamut - Yes, I heard you. »
« Bahamut - Everyone I will be going. I have some work to do. Remember to continue your training. »
« I am Mr. Cool - How many times are you going to repeat yourself »
« Bahamut - We are already lacking when compared to our enemies. You need to change that attitude. Besides, we are still lacking the last member. Do you know what that means? »
« Average Man - That person hasn't reached Lv 10 yet »
« Bahamut - So now do you get it? The pressure on us is already increasing. This is no joke. Take it seriously. Only we are the ones who know the truth in this world. But do you think without any power anyone would believe us? Get Strong as quickly as possible. The other side has already started to move.»
« I am Me. Cool - Fine..Fine..I get it. I am sorry. I was in the wrong»
« Average Man - Yes, you are right. It will affect too many lives. If we can't stop them in time»
Max too was struck with the realization. Things were already starting to get messier.
He needed to become stronger.

War rages on in the 10th millennium. Two interplanetary alliances, the Kyklos United World Alliance and the New Era Powers, are engaged in an intergalactic war that spans across the galaxy, with the latter slowly but surely achieving victory over the former. In a move of desperation, the Crown Prince of one of KUWA's allied nations, the Kingdom of Icaria, Verigan Aekarios XIII, assembles a team of specialists from across the galaxy to aid the war effort and put a stop to the NEP's progress. As our heroes begin their journey to win the Second Icarian-Orion War, they will go through many trials and tribulations. From the more obvious and direct, such as the thousands of enemy soldiers aiming for their heads, to the more inconspicuous and insidious, such as the prejudices of governors less than enthused by Verigan's course of action, as well as some... darker forces at play. Will our heroes prevail in their quest to end this war? What do these dark forces hold in store for the people of Kyklos? And is there any way to stop them? Find out in Steelhaven: The Rising Darkness! A sci-fantasy novel, collaboratively written by Denver Solace, J.P. Stefanno, Derrik S., Kezo D. Source, and a few other friends.

Jack of All Trades, Master of All
Jack was reincarnated, again. This time, the omnipotent sphere had finally revealed to him that this new world was, in fact, the real one, and his soul had just returned to his body after two years of coma. During that span, the Earth or the magical world No.146, where he was The Grand Sage, was just a simulation experience. Jack inherited the System of Knowledge from his former self in the previous world. But gradually, he realized there were other Returners, holding other powerful Systems that they themself were also granted. The reason? The Omnipotent Sphere refused to give an answer. With the ever-burning desire to find his former friends and companions at World No.146 after their souls too were returned to this world, Jack began his journey. Ahead of him, five hundred years old as he technically was, there might be some surprises he still wasn’t prepared for. This is an original translated work. I’ve always wanted to challenge my writing skill and post on Royalroad a few times, but, as it turned out, I realized my own English capability still limited me. Therefore, I am currently working with a team of three, hence the name Triopals, consisting of me, the author, a translator, and an investor who really put his faith in this project. My translator and I will work together to deliver four chapters each week. Depending on the translating, editing, re-reading, checking, and re-reading-again process, the chapters will be uploaded each day or all at once. Careful as we may be, there can still be some errors at our best, so we welcome grammatical corrections, etc. We are very appreciative of your support.
