Chapter five
It felt really good to go out into the sun and fresh air after spending so much of my time in the dark and dreary cave. Plus this was the first time I got to enjoy my fully functional body , I'll admit I acted like a complete fool running everywhere and laughing like a little kid. I don't even remember the last time I felt so happy and free.
" Hey Jules , you've been silent for a while. Your not still sulking about the god sight thing are you?"
"No dumbass, I'm trying to fix the damage you caused by your monumentally stupid stunt and making sure it doesn't happen again."
"Oh stop being a wet blanket , we are in a magical land about to have an adventure !"
" You look like you are about to go out on a different type of adventure. At least get yourself a pair of pants before you poke somebodies eyes out with that thing."
" While vulgar, you still have a point. I wonder if there are any animals to hunt in the forest?"
" I'm more worried about animals hunting you in the forest."
" Come on, there is nothing in the forest that can stop praecisus ( Latin for cut ) and tollo ( Latin for negate )"
" I can't believe you named your canes. Well what do you know today is your lucky day, you don't even have to go to the forest, something big is coming your way."
A rather large brown bear broke out from the trees into the clearing . While it wasted time roaring its anger and sending spittle everywhere, I simply pointed praecisus at said slobbering bear and touched it with my ring. The next moment not only the bear but the tree behind it where bisected into two. I was actually rather shocked at how grizzly (pun intended) the scene was. But on the bright side I was about to eat meat for the first time in 700 years, plus I'm sure I could fashion something from the fur to hide junior.

A couple of hours later I was lying down on the grass besides a warm bonfire leisurely enjoying barbecue bear while gazing up at the night sky that was littered with countless stars and a bright gibbous moon.
" Hey Jules, what do you think happened to cause all this."
"I'm not a 100% sure but according to the timeline I compiled I believe that the cause of the mana event is linked to the experiments that were occurring at the CERN super collider "
I couldn't suppress a chuckle as I imagined the looks on their faces when they realized that they had finally pricked a whole in the universe and that something was leaking in.
" Hey Jules, do you you remember the way to the closest settlement. I think its time to say hi to the natives."

Paladin
When the first derelict alien spacecraft fell to Earth, humanity took what was found in it and propelled themselves to new heights. In their new Golden Age, humanity developed technology that they had only dreamed about. The following years saw hundreds more ships crash into the planet, spurring even greater technological leaps. An unassuming spacecraft, one of the dozens that fell yearly, descended on Siberia in 2021. The world took no particular notice of it. However, this one contained something beyond the miraculous technology that had made humans so prosperous. Three years later, in a top-secret underground facility in eastern Colorado, the automated construction of an army of Paladin Mobile Infantry Suits was underway. With this new, state-of-the-art weaponry, the military would turn the tide against the alien incursion that was consuming the planet. Humanity fell before that could happen. Sam was an engineer responsible for overseeing the facility. Now alone, he lives in utter boredom and near insanity, his only company the base’s pseudo AI and an army of empty Paladins. With the world gone to hell around him, and the things that caused it still living above, he decides that he is much better off staying exactly where he is. Unfortunately for him, that is no longer an option. This is the first novel I've written. The first fifteen or so chapters are going to be a little slower. I want there to be time to get to know the characters before they start blowing stuff up. Also, though the MC will be strong relative to the world, he won't be OP, and won't win every fight. Not every fight will be physical either. Currently, I'm aiming for something like 5 fairly short chapters a week, after the introduction part is done, but we'll see how that goes. Thanks for reading, and please let me know if I've made mistakes!

Inherit
Our protagonist finds himself placed in an unfamilar world; his highly magical studies are put to the test as he tries to integrate into a different, but still magical, universe. This story is not particularly heavy, and may, at times, feel somewhat whimsical. This is intended. If you're looking for a nice trip along with a man whose abilities don't entirely fit into his new home, be sure to give Inherit a try. [Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge!]
