《The Immortal Mutant Teen》Chapter 9 - The Rules And The Bro-Con
Advertisement
As the group walked, they explained to him all that needed to know about the school and how things worked. In Tokyo's International High School students were very diverse, so some aspects were taken from the West and incorporated in the school system.
Here, school hours are from 0700 to 1900 (7 am to 7 pm). The first 7 hours are for the student's 5 core classes, classes are an hour long and there are 30 minutes in between each class. Also, this school follows the custom of switching to a different classroom for every class, but classmates do not change.
Since some of the children belong to very powerful groups, the school came up with this idea. It was implicated so that each student can be responsible for each other and have accountability, and to make it easier for those teachers that need specialized equipment to teach their class.
The 5 core classes are mandatory for every student to attend, if they want to graduate, should you miss a class due to valid reasons, there are multiple ways to make it up. The last five hours are for specialized classes, or better known as 'clubs. The school clubs are mainly characterized as either an academic club or an athletic club.
Knowing that each student has different areas that they specialize in, the school created these clubs to fulfill their needs. The academic clubs range from subjects like farming to nuclear science. While the athletic clubs range from personal training to counterespionage.
For these classes, students are only mandated to attend one club for an hour. Of course, you can join up to 5 different clubs, attend for one hour each or just join 1 club and attend all 5 hours until school closes. Every facility is equipped with the latest equipment and every subject has the most qualified of instructors.

Unless you are in an academic club, instructors rarely give a lecture for a large group of people, everything is one on one. The school also has implicated duels into the school system, this was done for those martial arts students so that they can grow and become stronger.
Due to grudges being formed between students, all duels follow the same rules and regulations for the safety of the students. Duels are not to be refused, so students can think twice about offending someone or getting revenge on someone.
Every duel must be witnessed or refereed by a teacher or instructor, all teachers have training on conducting duels and cannot refuse to oversee a duel, the closest teacher or instructor that is present when the duel is proposed will oversee it.
No one can interfere unless a student fighter is in mortal danger. Anything short of death is allowed, but crippling, maiming or intense acts of violence throughout the duel will be punished after the fact. Duels that are of martial art intent, must only be between two students that are part of the martial arts faction.
"Hohh~, These duels sound very interesting and fun," Acheron says as a wide smile forms on his face "To think I'll be winning our bet so easily, now that I know I can be challenged by anyone at any time between classes... I can't wait to crush them beneath my feet!" His last couple of words were arrogant and domineering but it never showed on his face... it was as if someone else had said them.
"To think you are so arrogant!" Sakura says, "Crush them? Some of these students are prodigies in their respective martial arts, just look at my brother! He is unparalleled with the sword and ranks in the top ten throughout the whole school, he is the coolest!" she couldn't help but look excited as she talked about her brother.

"There is simply no one that can defeat me" Acheron simply states with a confident smile.
"Arrogant!" she exclaims "Out of all the students here, the top 100 are the best of the best, should Akeno show her power, she would rank in the mid 20's"
Acheron couldn't help but giver another small smile "As I said, the rankings mean nothing to me, be it 20th place or 1st place, no one can defeat me!"
"Hmph!" Sakura couldn't help but get angry at his arrogant words and how easily he had dismissed her brother. She began to walk faster trying to get away from him.
"I apologize for her, she believes her brother to be the strongest, and hates when someone contradicts her belief," Akeno says, with an apologetic look.
"I don't mind, but tell me… is this what you call a bro-con?" Acheron asked,
Akeno froze for a second before bursting into laughter "Pfffftt! Hahaha! I guess you could say that she is one" she wiped a tear from the corner of her eye.
'No one had dared call her out on her affection for her brother like that before, this boy is wild and unhindered' Her affection for him grew the longer she spent time with him.
Akeno turns around and speeds up trying to catch up to Sakura while saying "Wait up Sakura! We are supposed to be showing Belau-kun around the school!"
Sakura had stopped in her tracks and is now waiting for them to catch up, she looks at Acheron and says "Hurry up! there is much to show you and there are only 25 minutes left till next class"
"Let's go to the music building! Maybe we will get a chance to see the top beauty in the school!" Akeno says.
"Hoh~, someone more beautiful than you, Watanabe-san?" Acheron says intending to tease Akeno.
Akeno not knowing to say, could only turn her head in embarrassment at his compliment, the way she blushes down to her neck, reminded Acheron of someone he knew a long time ago, he found this very cute and fun, just like he use to tease 'her' all those years ago.
Sakura couldn't help but wonder what was going on with Akeno. She had never seen her so shy before and she is usually the one teasing other people. At first, she thought that she liked Acheron but quickly dismissed the idea, after all, they just met.

Black Wind, White Lotus
In this world, there are haves and have nots. The former are pureblooded humans, some of whom are capable of manipulating qi, the mysterious energy that flows through every living creature, to miraculous results that defy the laws of nature and physics. Wen Feili was one such cultivator. However, she allied with the have nots- the anthropomorphic hybrids incapable of channeling qi-and dabbled in forbidden demonic arts, seeking to change the very composition of reality. This did not end well for her, and she was consumed by her own flames. A decade later, far in the northwestern mountains, her daughter Wen Fengli is working as a lowly servant of the minor Shuangshan sect. In between sweeping the floor and avoiding bullies, she secretly trains with a wooden sword, hoping to become a warrior cultivator at some point in the future. However, since she's part-human, part-wolf, it's just a pipe dream. ....or so she bitterly thought. However, one day a mysterious amulet that belonged to her mother falls into her hands. A deranged old master, a terrible conspiracy, a mysterious past? None of that matters to tomboyish wolfgirl, who only seeks to become stronger. She embarks on a journey of adventure and self-discovery, towards the mysterious southern lands where pure demi-humans are said to live...as spectre of war once again envelops the world of man. This is a Chinese-themed fantasy story set in a fictional world. You can classify it as xianxia, if you wish, but it's a rather low fantasy variant; the heavenly realm is silent, no one reached immortality in generations, and magical artifacts of old are locked away and feared. Magical beasts and spirits have been driven to the corners of civilisation, and "ordinary" abilities such as flying or controlling swords through telekinesis are considered spectacular feats. The main plot of this book revolves around a kemonomimi girl who seeks power, no matter the cost. This story also features multiple character pov, and will not always follow the perspective of the mc- there are two major plotlines, one connected to conspiracy and war ongoing in the political background of the presented world, and the other focusing on the main character's physical and metaphorical journey. The cover image was drawn by minyaxj, per my request, on a commercial license.

Quest of the Seal Bearers - Book 1: The Warriors Return
On the distant world of Mendala, a rash of mysterious attacks have left many towns destroyed, and there are rumors of an army of monsters. Fantasma, leader of the global government, and his colleagues are determined to find cause of these attacks. but the search for answers points them to an ancient relic, The Book of War, a cursed artifact that can create indestructible creatures loyal to its master. It’s been over twelve thousand years since the Book of War was last opened. It was believed to be destroyed during the Great War by the Twelve Warriors and Daughter of the Sun at the cost of their lives. Now, it seems the book has resurfaced, and its new master is seeking to forever tip the balance of power. The stage is being set for another Great War but who can stop the Book of War once and for all? Meanwhile on Earth, the teen members of Greengale’s Action and Adventure Club are preparing for their yearly trip when they suddenly stumble upon a secret their parents have been keeping for years. Now their world is being turned upside down as they struggle to understand the legacy that ties their fate to Mendala and the Book of War. Is their destiny set in stone, or will they forge a different path? No matter what, their choices will bring forth a new era for Mendala. ------------------------------ If you love vast fantasy worlds, rich, fleshed-out characters, and a adventure where your'e constantly discovering new things along the way, then this is definitely a story you'll enjoy. This is a slow-burn high fantasy / adventure with many characters and intersecting plotlines. It’s a quest so lots of adventuring, exploring, and character moments, but not a ton of fighting/action (though there are definitely some great fight scenes as payoff to the buildup). Because it’s a fantasy world with lots of people and new concepts, I try to make it easy so that you don’t have to memorize anything. The narrative will constantly remind you of important people/places/concepts as you keep moving forward. Some things won’t be fully explained right at the beginning to avoid information overload. My goal is that the reader will learn things organically as the story progresses. I use two mechanisms to help with the intersecting plotlines. - Each chapter is named for the (main) plotline it’s following and which part. - At the beginning of the chapter, and anytime there is a scene shift, the location is listed. Also, though this is definitely a portal-fantasy (isekai) it’s different from the standard isekai, especially since the world transfer doesn’t happen immediately. It’s not Lit-RPG but characters gain powers and grow over time. Also, it’s a group of teens that transfer, not just one central character. All of the teens are distinct characters, with their own character-arcs, relationships, powers, growth etc. Hopefully you’ll find this interesting as you’ll see the world and story from multiple perspectives. The story is always in 3rd Person (Omniscient) POV so that it’s not jarring as perspectives shift.
