Chapter 140: The Idol of School
Xu Dahai’s wish was for his family to move into the city.
After all, in Termite Town, not only were the living conditions difficult, but even safety was not guaranteed. From time to time, they would be attacked by Fierce Beasts.
Although Termite Town also had Beast Masters patrolling, there were very few of them. It was impossible for them to arrive in time all the time. If anything happened, it would be too late.
However, it was different in the city. There were a large number of Beast Masters constantly protecting the safety of the city.
Because her good friend had been captured by the Fierce Beasts, Xu Xiaoxiao had been thinking about moving to the city.
However, moving to the city was not that easy.
First, one had to be rich!
The capital of the Illumination Empire was extremely expensive. If one wanted to live in the city, one had to be rich.
Of course, this did not mean that one had to be an extremely wealthy noble. At the very least, one had to have a decent job in the city and have a steady income every month.
However, Xu Dahai’s family did not have that much savings. Other than Xu Dahai, it was impossible for ordinary people to live in the city.
The second thing was to have status.
If one wanted to move to the city, if there were some places that were particular, there would be a requirement for status.
However, Xu Dahai was now a Beast Master, so there was no need to worry about this.
Moving to the city would also allow his mother and sister to live in a better place.
As for earning money, there was no need to worry. As long as Xu Dahai graduated, many people would line up to hire him.

After all, the identity of a Rune Beast Master was very honorable.
Xu Dahai stroked Xu Xiaoxiao’s hair and said with a smile, “Be happy, Xiaoxiao, don’t worry!”
“Yes, yes, I believe in Big Brother!”
Xu Xiaoxiao smiled very happily.
“Eat more, grow your body!”
“Okay.”
Xu Dahai looked at his sister’s golden hair, which looked a little shiny!
It should be because he had recently eaten the meat of the Demonized Sparrow to replenish her nutrition.
After the meal, Xu Dahai brought Lugh to a friend’s house.
It was also Meka, whom Xu Xiaoxiao had mentioned earlier.
Meka had also become a Beast Master, but he was not a Beast Master of the Divine Beast Academy.
His talent was not enough, so he could only take the entrance exam for the other rune academies in the Illumination Empire.
But it was already very rare in a small place like Termite Town.
The one who opened the door was Meka’s mother. As soon as Meka’s mother saw Xu Dahai and Lugh, she warmly invited them in, and at the same time, Meka came downstairs.
Meka was a very burly young man with a tan complexion.
As soon as Meka saw Xu Dahai, he hugged him.
The two of them happily greeted each other and Xu Dahai even introduced Lugh to Meka.
When Meka heard Lugh’s name, his eyes widened.
“Damn, you’re Lugh!”
“Lugh, you’re too awesome!”
Lugh smiled. He did not expect Meka to have heard of him.
“It’s alright, hahaha.”
“Let’s go, let’s go to my room.”
It was not the first time Xu Dahai had come to Meka’s bedroom.
It was a bed with a messy quilt that was never folded.
There were two stools and a wooden desk that had been eaten by worms. There were many textbooks on the desk.

The education system in the rune world miraculously followed the education system in the technological world.
There were also primary schools, junior high schools, and universities.
However, universities were changed into colleges.
This education system was not compulsory.
After all, there was a certain fee.
Some families are not in a good situation, so they are not eligible for education.
As for these schools, you could come or not. They would never worry about no students anyway.
Many children who live in small places like Termite Town, many of them did not go to school, some went to school, but only went to primary school, barely able to write and count.
In such a small place, survival was more important.
Even though they were still young, they had to work hard to survive. Otherwise, they would not be able to eat their fill and starve.
Therefore, for them, being able to enter the academy, especially becoming a Beast Master or a Rune Master, was already like having a carp leaping over the dragon’s gate.
Meka closed the door and said to Xu Dahai and Lugh, “Lugh, you are really amazing. I’ve heard about it!”
“You’re the only student in the thousands of years of the Divine Beast Academy who skipped a grade, and you even jumped straight to the third grade, right?”
“Yes!”
Lugh didn’t want to hide it. Anyway, the people from the Rune Academy all knew about it.
But he didn’t expect that even Meka from a foreign school knew about it.
His reputation was spread too widely.
After receiving Lugh’s affirmation to recover, Meka almost knelt down to him.
“Oh my god, I’ll call you Big Brother. Big Brother Lugh, I don’t even know what to say!”
“You are now a god in our school!”
“Say what you have to say!” Lugh smiled. “It seems that my reputation in your school is quite big. Oh right, you are also a Beast Master. How is your training?”
“I can’t do it. We are a small school. My Diamond Gorilla can’t even defeat an ordinary Low-Grade Black Iron beast!”
In fact, this situation was the normal situation for many ordinary Beast Masters.
It was very difficult for them to get Divine Beast pet eggs with excellent growth potential.
Just like Xu Dahai, before awakening the Divine Beast, they could only choose Divine Beast that was given by the academy but only had ordinary potential.
This kind of Divine Beast had low potential, and its strength increased very slowly.
“It’s okay. Divine pets needs to grow slowly. I’m just in a special situation!”
“Of course you’re a special case!” Meka’s face was shining with excitement as he said, “Everyone in our school has regarded you as their idol. They didn’t expect that you could skip a grade and defeat a third-year senior.”
Xu Dahai also sighed. “This guy is really too strong. I can’t even see the taillights of his car. Sigh, I can’t catch up with Lugh at all. This is the difference.”
“Hey, you can do it. You guys can do it too.”
Lugh looked at the two of them and could only give them some encouragement.
Actually, Xu Dahai was not bad. Being able to enter the Divine Beast Academy as a commoner proved Xu Dahai’s talent.
But there was still a big gap compared to Lugh.

Dungeon's Path
The only places I have posted the story and allow it to exist are on RoyalRoad, Scribblehub, and my Patreon. So the world ended. Whoopsie? We didn’t even see it coming. Quite literally as it came at us faster than the speed of light. Don’t worry though, it got better. Also, I am not joking about the world ending. Most people say that and mean humans are inconvenienced for some reason. Nope, all matter disintegrated at the atomic scale there for a few moments. Apparently the local universe wasn’t actually stable? Don’t ask me to go into too much detail. It would require both of us to have a few more college degrees than sense, and I at least lack them (both the degrees and the sense). Anyway, the energy/matter/wibbly wobbly strings were at a local minimum and not the universal minimum. Basically, what we took for sea level was actually a nice little mountain lake and when the dam busted so did, well, everything. Now here is where things go a bit off track with what normal meant before. You see magic is real, qi is real, gods are real. Not on old Earth mind you but souls pay little attention to time and space so we dreamed of it. In fact, the closer the shift in reality got to Earth, the closer our dreams got to the new reality. This is basically me tip toeing around the fact that it was a ‘System Apocalypse’. Reality became a video game, I became a dungeon, and this is my story. Doyle Huxley just wanted a normal life but as the above might clue you in on that just isn’t in the cards. He gets to experience a “Path Based System Apocalypse” and some early paths he takes, both literally and figuratively, lead to him becoming a dungeon. The aim is to release chapters once a week on Friday. Cursing will be avoided and no naughty adult action will take place in the story.

A Fate Shaped by Magick
This fiction was (and is) published on fanfiction dot net under the same title; though as I slowly transfer it to here, I am editing and smoothing it. This story takes place in the Elder Scrolls (TES) Universe mostly ending up in Morrowind. This is a slice of life meant to answer the questions of how (in the TES universe) do mages study and learn, and exploring some of the in-game differences between TES 2 and 3. This book has minimal spoilers for the Morrowind main quest and does not fully explore it. If you think that giant insects would make cool pets - if you like the idea of exploring magic NOT intended simply as killing something better, faster or more gore-ridden, then come on in and enjoy.
