《The Immortal Mutant Teen》Chapter 31 - Lets Get Ready To Rumble
Advertisement
The Colosseum was buzzing with excitement, some were already cheering for their friends who have taken up the challenge.
No one was dumb enough to believe that anyone willing to challenge the whole school was weak.
Acheron looked confident and ready to go and sat on the ground waiting for his matches to start.
Back in the audience, Akeno and Sakura were having an awkward time seating next to Rose.
They weren't exactly sure of her identity but they knew she was with Acheron, any person with him wasn't ordinary.
Sakura gathered up the courage to talk to Rose,
"Excuse me?" Sakura said
Rose looked at Sakura,
"Yes? How can I help you?" Rose said,
"Um, are you here to cheer on Acheron?" Sakura said
"No… There is no need to cheer when the outcome has already been decided, I'm here to keep Acheron-sama from killing anyone" Rose said with the same stoic and cold face she had when they first saw her.
"Killing someone? Are you sure? I don't think Acheron would do that" Akeno said
Rose gave Akeno a condescending look,
"That's how much you don't know little girl, Acheron-sama lives to slaughter, its a part of who he is... there are only a few things he might love more than killing"
"So? There's still no need for you to get involved in any way, our school can provide the security to the students" Akeno said with a little anger in her voice, she didn't like the way Rose was talking to her.
"This school? Security? Pfft, Oh Please! Acheron-sama could dismantle your weak attempts of security in the blink of an eye" Rose said
"If he is so strong, then why would he challenge all these students to a fight?" Sakura said,
"For entertainment, of course... for Acheron-sama hates to be bored," Rose said,

"So, Acheron is treating all of these challengers as entertainment? He can't be that bored, can he?" asks Akeno,
"Watanabe Akeno, right? listen, if you were at the top of the world in power, with almost no one able to give you a good fight, wouldn't you be bored?" asks Rose,
"That is a constant struggle Acheron-sama deals with every day, and how do I know he is the strongest? Even though I rank first in our family, that's only because Acheron-sama is not counted in the rankings.... he reigns supreme in everything"
She turns to look at Acheron and for the first time in the conversation, she smiles,
"And even though he could be called the zenith of this world, he never stops training...Every single second of every single day he trains 10 times, no, 100 times harder than anyone else, even now as he sits there waiting, he is training in some aspect, all to protect everything he loves or will love..."
"Also, How do you know my name?" Akeno asks, "I don't think we introduced ourselves yet…"
"Of course, Acheron-sama had me look you up, I know everything about you since the moment you were born, do you think you can receive Acheron-sama's affection with such a small mind?" Rose said,
Akeno gave Rose a death glare for outing her feelings like that in public, what if someone heard and spreads it around and Acheron finds out?
"No need to look at me like that, it pretty obvious if you ask me," Rose said before finally turning to look towards them again,
"and if you think Acheron-sama is oblivious to that fact, there's another thing coming… nothing escapes Acheron-sama's detection"
"You seem pretty sure that Akeno has no chance, is he in a relationship already?" Sakura asks,

"He is not, but there is a waiting line, and you little girls, are at least behind my sister and me," says Rose
"Who are you then?" says Sakura
"I am Rose Belau, Acheron-sama's 'assistant' and adopted sister.... first in line for Acheron-sama's love," Rose said that while putting slight pressure on both Akeno and Sakura
'Sister?' they thought, 'is she a bro-con?'
Kotone who had said nothing throughout the whole conversation finally spoke up,
"Kobayashi-sensei has taken the stage; the fights are ready to start"
The other 3 girls stopped talking and faced the stage, they wanted to see how Acheron will fare through these challenges.
Down in the gladiator pit, sensei had already called out the first challenger and is ready to present the rules one more time for both the fighters and the audience.
With a mic in her hand, Kobayashi-sensei started to officiate the matches, the Colosseum quieted down to listen,
"Listen here! Student Acheron will now be fighting 268 students, there is no time limit for each match, the winner is decided by submission, knockout or forfeit.
Weapons are allowed, No Killing!
The circle shown here will be the stage, leaving the circle means you forfeit.
Challengers have 10 seconds to reach the circle, if not it's a forfeit and considered student Acheron's win.
Student Acheron may give up on all the matches, but the number of people left will be considered official losses.
Matches will be postponed 30 minutes before 1700 (5 pm) to prepare for the main event after that matches will resume, should there be any.
As of 10 minutes ago, the sign up has officially closed and there would be no more challengers after the 268th."
Kobayashi-sensei looked at both Acheron and the challenger, they both nodded their heads that they understood,
"Let the match, Begin!" Kobayashi-sensei exclaimed,
*SLAP*
Before the crowd could even begin to cheer, Acheron had slapped the first contender into unconsciousness at lightning speed,
"How weak…" Acheron said with a bit of disappointment before looking up the crowd,
"If you are going to treat this as a game and show up here with such weak power, then you won't mind if I treat you like clowns, right?!…"
Acheron looked towards Rose giving her a wide smile causing the latter to blush,
"ROSE!!" Acheron shouted,
"Y-yes?!" gone was the cold and stoic Rose, she now looked like a maiden in love being called on by the love of her life.
"Hit it!!" Acheron exclaimed as she pointed at her,
"As you command!" Rose said,
Rose pulled out her phone and continued to hack into the Colosseum's speaker system, then from the speakers came music,
- "Somebody once told me the world is going to roll me, I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed"-
"That's my jam!" Acheron said, as he slowly began to dance to the music,
- "She was looking kinda dumb with her finger and her thumb in the shape of an 'L' on her forehead"-
At this time 30 seconds had passed, so the next three contenders were eliminated due to forfeit.
The crowd found it extremely funny and amusing, some even started singing and dancing along with the song, they never met someone that fought with music playing.
Now, this is entertainment!
The contenders looking on, however, were feeling a different kind of way, they didn't want to go up and make a fool of themselves like this.

Dungeon Core Chat Room.
This is a slower-paced "experiment and dungeon building" web novel that tries to use the idea of peer-to-peer communication with Dungeon Cores instead of Dungeon to slave monster communication to break up the detailed dungeon building. Rank 1 description: (minimum met for system initialization...detailed description as follows) Each race was given a system by the gods to make up for their shortcomings and balance their place in this world. Humans: Abysmally bad at understanding and using magic unable to use more than the lowest of magic were given the "Skill System" magic in the form of premade skills with use, study, and mastery tied to experience. Elves: Intuitively understand magic and have long lives leading to vast knowledge and skill in their chosen fields. However, as a species, they have nearly zero sex drive and less than low fertility, so they were gifted the "World Tree System" with experience gained through the care of natural areas – gifting the chance of children to increase their numbers without dirty copulation. All “natural” or “wild” monsters are given an "Evolution system" designed around killing and consuming as many creatures as possible, slowly increasing strength and, at thresholds, allowing mutations to alter them multiple times. Dungeon cores are different. Unlike humans, they can see, manipulate and live off mana. Unlike Elves, they naturally crystallize after extended periods of time in high mana level areas. However, they cannot easily move or communicate and typically go insane without companionship. As a species other than the odd eccentric they are unimaginative. Brute forcing solutions without the drive to truly innovate. Thus they have been gifted with the "Dungeon Connection System" a magical version of the internet accessible by their peers that allows them to barter and sell: bait, traps, monsters, and knowledge, as well as entertain each other with “adventure streams” using exciting recorded battles and humorous reels of arrogant chumps biting off more than they can chew to often fatal effects. This is the casual story of a dungeon unluckily spawned far from potential adventurers forced to innovate beyond its peers to find its place in this world. Rank 2 Description: Justification. I've been on a dungeon core kick for months and while I love the genre – it's sparse with entries. Often the forced conflict gets repetitive and frantic solving of threats "power levels" the protagonist to god levels to progress the plot – taking away the nice steady progression fantasy I'm looking for. (Progression in this story is linked to how strong of monsters/traps/whatever he can create not his "level"...this is demonstrated by some of his newer monsters beating his older monsters not with discrete "this monster has 10 attack this one has 40") Additionally, the focus on 3rd parties with their drama takes away from the reason I’m reading dungeon core novels in the first place – I'm looking for magical crafting, experimentation and kingdom building – not defence from higher and higher levelled enemies looking to steal/destroy/control the MC. This novel is kind of just me writing the story I wish I could read. I like thinking about the experimentation that can be done in fantasy settings using 'mana' as an excuse to make up rules and try to keep them internally consistent. IE once I define how a rule works, I'm going to commit to keeping it – no breaking hard truths I've given when it's convenient, even if it backs me into a corner. Hopefully, that should make the story interesting to read even if it's SOL and less action-oriented. There will be problems to solve and a clear progression in strength (of created monsters and knowledge) however due to not wanting to force conflict for the sake of conflict the general theme will be closer to slice of life with few action sequences and no overarching goal so please keep that in mind when picking this up as the genre is not for everyone. Finally, I have a clear goal of what I want from this story (not an endless romp but a series of arcs and then a conclusion that's a couple of dozen medium-sized chapters long) I want to commit to finishing it or at least bringing it to a point of rest. I hate all the engaging stories that stop with a “hiatus” indefinitely so in the event I lose motivation I'll work to end this even if the ending becomes rushed/unsatisfying just to give a sense of closure. I’m planning on including several polls in terms of direction and taking feedback heavily into account if I get enough readers (but may choose to ignore it if it deviates too far from the direction I want to take this as in feedback like: “The MC needs a cartoonishly evil arch-enemy that wants to enslave him and force the mc to pump out magic items” or “the MC needs to make a body and learn teleportation then live with humans” will get shot down without consideration.)

The Destiny of a Mortal God (Hiatus)
Currently on hiatus, in part because I'm unsatisfied with how the story was starting to develop, and even though I had ideas how to run it, I still made mistakes far too big to correct them. Secondly I'm currently stressed about university, and sincerely, I don't see myself keeping this project. I may or may not retake this project or even start a new one, but one thing's for sure, it isn't happening anytime soon (Meaning until june, aprox, or until I can keep up with class). ... Lyon Ironblood, 19 years old and orphan, is taken by Kronos from the present Earth to another world, where he shall fight and struggle to get stronger so that he shall acomplish the mission Kronos assigned him. He shall fight gods, demons, dragons and monsters and even mortals who surpass those. But to do so he shall receive, though only after he proved himself worthy, a power beyond imagination. This power will not be handed freely to him, and he'll have to work hard to develop it. He shall receive the X-Men System. A magic system designed to enhance Lyon and give him the mutations from the X-Men serie. He shall start from scratch, with powers that will seem less than a mere human, and develop them with effort, to surpass the gods. [I don't claim ownership of any of the X-Men powers or characters, neither the cover, only thing I claim are the ideas which make the story and put together their powers, how they'll develop from scratch to even higher worlds than they were suposed on the series, other than that, all X-Men characters named (which I'll try to avoid to a certain point) are not of my property]
