《THE TRIALS: Path Toward Godhood. (WARNING : MATURE CONTENT)》CH 90: PRELUDE TO A BLOODY FEAST (2)
Advertisement
Kuroha was walking toward school once again. Frankly, he was almost sick of doing so. He was sure that he could better use his time if he didn't have to waste half a day there each time.
On his way, he took out his phone to text Melissa. He wanted to meet her tomorrow and discuss their cooperation. He also wanted to know if she could create another armor like the one she had. After all, Himiko might come to need it.
The armor she created was truly a war machine. In pure defense, Kuroha wasn't sure he could destroy it. After all, it was created with All Might full power in mind.
It wasn't just the defense that was insane. It was equipped with a stealth function as well as a flight one. Finally, by heating the reactor, she could shoot beams of light as a weapon. When you added her fighting techniques you could say once she donned her armor, she was a true monster not inferior to Muscular.
Still, at the end of the day, a machine was a machine. It needed many things to work and had many weaknesses. Despite that, it wouldn't be a mistake to call this armor a revolution to the world of quirk.
Right now was the year 2217. Still, compared to two hundred years ago, the difference in technology wasn't that much. In fact, apart from some evolutions in the genetic and medical department, there was basically no difference.
The cause of such a situation was the dark age.
The advent of quirks was rose and sunshine. At first, those with quirks were seen as freaks of nature. Humans being humans, they began to discriminate against people whose sole fault was to have been born a little different from the others.
Would people with power accept being oppressed for no reason? Of course not. So, a war began. A war that lasted years and years. That war was so long and so bloody that the second world war looked like a child play in front of it.

What made this war worse was that it spared no one. People fought against each other. During those moments of darkness, vigilantes began to appear, and bring stability to the world. Then, those vigilantes slowly become known as heroes.
Afterward, because of an unknown event, which was known as a superpower, became known as "Quirk". This word was used in order to make such paranormal power appear less scary. Kuroha once asked Milienia about that event. But, she simply smiled and said that it didn't matter and that he shouldn't waste his time trying to understand it.
Anyway, this war lasted for decades, and once it ended, it was followed by many squirmish. This war was very destructive. In order to survive, every country, every being only had one thing in their head. QUIRK. They used all their power, all their ideas, all their time to decipher this power know as quirk. All kinds of advancement stagnated. All research not geared toward the study of quirk was halted.
That's why, after so many years, the world seemed to still be at the same place it was two hundred years ago.
Nowadays, the situation did a total flip. Quirks were everything, the 20% without quirk had a hard time integrating into society. The supernatural became natural and the normal turned abnormal.
In such a world, those 20% would kill to have a weapon that could make them fight against powerful quirks users.
----
Kuroha was discussing with Mina about how she could better use her acid quirk when Aizawa entered the room. Silence immediately followed his arrival.
After reaching the podium, he began to speak with his usual lazy voice,
"Soo, I hope everyone is alright? Anyway, as I had said yesterday, today I will have you decide on your class representative."

The class immediately began to erupt, Mina, Denki, Kirishima, etc, even Bakugo. Everyone proposed themselves for the position of the class representative. It was then that,
"SILENCE, PLEASE!!"
Everyone became silent and turned to find the source of this voice. It was none other than Tenya Iida. He immediately began a discourse,
"It's a job with the serious responsibility of leading others. It's not a job for just anyone who wants to do it. It's a calling that requires the trust of those around you. If we want to use democracy to decide on a true leader, then we should hold an election to choose one."
Asui raised a valuable problem after hearing this proposition,
"We haven't known each other for that long, so how can we have trust or anything?"
It was followed by Kirishima talking about how people will simply vote for themselves. Still, Tenya seemed to be ready for this
"Don't you think that is precisely why whoever receives multiple votes here can be truly considered the most suitable person? WHAT DO YOU THINK SENSEI?"
"I don't care as long as you decide before homeroom is over."
"THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!"
Kuroha couldn't help but let out a wry smile after seeing their teacher answer. Still, it didn't matter to him.
----
Kuroha stared with bewilderment at the result.
(The fuck?)
The first place was him with 5 votes and Deku was second place with three votes.
"WHY DEKU? WHO VOTED FOR HIM?"
No one bothered answering Bakugo. The students knew how short his fuse was.
Kuroha was about to speak when Mina and the others surrounded him and began to congratulate him and such. In the confusion; he even found himself on the podium with Deku.
Glancing at all those eyes full of expectation, Kuroha couldn't help but let a bitter smile.
(Well, at least this day can't become worse.)
The truth was...Yes, It could.

Fateful
Edgar Vogel was a 30 year old underemployed veteran who dropped out of college. His life was comfortable but all ambition was lost. His plans, born of depression and anxiety, were to simply live out his life of mediocrity and enjoy what little he could. That all changed, all it takes is something small to change fate, in his case ice. Reborn into a primitive but fantastical world, full of magic and monsters, he may make something of himself. Oh and there's a massive war against werewolf hordes on the mainland. Edgar, now Jon, has a second chance at life. His previous life was reduced to fragments of technical knowledge that come to him in the form of visions. His new home, the Northern Isles, is far removed from the conflict of the mainland for now as he lives in the quiet frontier village of Terra. His new family believes that fate can be changed and destiny overruled but he has no idea. Whether that's true or not, being told by a crazy old lady that his fate starts with him sitting by a rock in the middle of a field seems wrong, but who knows? Maybe she's right but what's the bit about 'await the bite' supposed to mean? Jon soon learns and his life changes forever. What can a young boy who's gained wolven-blood do? Will he be a monster or will he find salvation? Jon was bitten. ********************************************************************************** Welcome to the Northern Isles. My first story posted on here! I already have the outline of the first couple of books planned out and will be posting a new chapter every Tuesday and Friday. The story will be dark at times but I intend to keep things fairly light when I can. I'm aiming for a world that isn't full of sunshine and rainbows but isn't as bleak as it could be. Focusing on friendship, camaraderie, sh*t talking, and adventure.
