Aiming To Be The Best Magician In The World! Chapter 257

"Do you see any of your friends on stage Sylvie?" Laura asked her.
"Mmm… I only see one of them, he's the boy with the katana near the middle. He's wearing those samurai-like armour pieces just without the helmet." Sylvie said as she explained it so it would be easier for her mother to spot Lance.
"Oh, I see him now. He even has a lot of MP too. There isn't really anyone strong in this bracket, so he will cleanly sweep through it." Laura said as she looked at Lance before swiftly glimpsing over the rest of the contestants.
"He's a swordsman though. Why would he have so much MP and not become a mage?" Sylvie asked her mother.
"If you're a swordsman with a mage, you can unleash your attacks using a physical boost to make it stronger. Or, you can even use special skills which will take a lot of MP." Laura explained it to her.
"Oh," Sylvie said as she had not learned any skills yet, and had only been referencing to stuff from games an anime.
"Well, it's starting now, let's watch," Laura said as both of their eyes went towards the ring.
"Okay!" Sylvie said as she watched Lance.
…
"Welcome ladies and ladies! I have no idea where the gentlemen areas I can't see them." The announcer said as he used a device that resembled a microphone from Sylvie's past world and spoke through it.
"Pfftt! Hahaha!" The crowd started to laugh when they heard the announcer clearly didn't pay attention to any of the men.
"Anyway! Welcome to another year of the Academy's Summer Tournament! You all already know the procedure, there will be six brackets! Bracket A, B, C, D, E, and F!" The announcer explained.

"Only five from each bracket can move on! Afterwards, the battles will go from a one on one fashion! This will happen all the way to the grand finals! There will be six matches every day after this battle royale!" The announcer continued to explain.
"ANYWAY, I know you are all bored! So why not just start the tournament now! As I can't wait either! I am actually just here for my salary, so the quicker this is done, the quicker I can get my money and go get myself some beauties!" The announcer joked as he indicated for the tournament to start.
"Now on my count!" The announcer said as he started a countdown with the spectators counting down with him.
"3!"
"2!"
"1!"
"Start!" They all shouted as the students began to fight whoever was nearest to them or silently trying to hide and avoid until they were the top five.
"You're Lance aren't you! Top 10 in the academy entrance exams! Too bad you had to be placed in my bracket! Now I shall crush you!" A kid that was much bigger than him said as he wielded a battle-axe before slicing it at Lance.
"You talk too much, don't talk during a battle," Lance said as he dodged the battle-axe before kicking the kid off the ring in the colosseum.

Storm of the Elementals
The apocalypse was something that people were expecting to happen sooner or later, rising sea levels and everything. What our protagonist didn't expect was it to be from a system, let alone the fact that he missed it. Waking up as an elemental and being given frighteningly little info from a system that seemed a little off , stuck with 3 other eccentric individuals that he could almost swear are a bit dodgy, and not being quite sure he was human anymore, it was the start of a long day. It only got longer when he found out he was moved to a whole different world. ~ This is a slow burn story, focusing on the world and what happens if an eccentric historian gets transported in a world with systems and power that are not quite meant for him. ~ Some things you can expect: -No harem, god no. -Yes the protagonist is strong, no he isn't completely OP. -Other people who have been changed, he isn't the only special or chosen one who got transported or messed with. -It is sad to actually have to put this here, but the main character does shockingly have common sense.

Deviant's Masquerade: The Huntsman's Quest (An Urban Magic Quest/RPG)
Jon Whitaker went to summer camp expecting a nice relaxing time as a newly minted counselor in training. He was not expecting to fight an army of monsters, work with a serial killer, enter a one-sided friendship with an eldritch horror, or study under a competing witch and dark lord. But regardless of what he was expecting, his summer is over and he's made his way back home where he can try and return to a normal -for him- life. Too bad life rarely goes as expected. --- Please Note: This is forum quest/RPG I run in the same city/setting as my other stories Hacking Reality and Get Ink'd, meaning that while a majority of the plot is made up by me, the major choices as well as what each chapter is about are usually made by the actual readers in forum votes. Additionally, given how this is essentially a story version of a Tabletop game there is also a background RPG system that while the characters aren't necessarily aware of, the readers can see these stats to know how each chosen 'Action' effects their character's development.
