《The Two-faced Otaku》An approaching Big Fight
Advertisement
I started hunting and killing most of the class F - D beast that I encountered while grinding points to get a summon.
I used my oversoul, it was really cool and useful because I can use it in both defence and offence. I can use the blade to slash the demonic beasts while using Amidamaru's shield to defend. Thus, Killing this beasts is so easy but the only problem is it consumes most of my furyoku and can only be used at most 20 minutes.
While I'm starting my massacre to this sacrificial lambs I suddenly heard a commotion, because of my enhanced hearing I was able to catch it and started heading to where the commotion came from.
I rushed onto the forest like a jet plane streaking across the skies. By this point, I no longer needed the two-faced demeanor, for that towering aura of death was simply impossible to miss. I had never encountered such an intense aura of death in my life before…
I already destroyed most of the Class F -D beasts in the area and earned points.
After running for atleast 30 minutes, I'm almost there.
There’s seems to be alot of people ahead… I stepped on the tree and used it to propel myself into the air as I jumped onto its big branch. Spotting where the people had gathered on the ground, I leapt towards them.
“?!” Beneath me, A beautiful student turned her head to look at me, a shocked expression on her face.
With her were the people who seems to be students with their summoned beast fighting against a Gigantic Beast with 3 heads that looks like a bulldog and black body. A Cerberus
I then noticed that there were a total of 100 students present; as far as my memory serves me, this seems to be the 2nd year students mobilized for expedition trial so most of them are conposed of Class D-C.While looking at the students I then felt the death aura coming from the three headed dog. It's actually a class B beast...
Hold on a second a class B?!!!
Why would such a creature of the darkness that was supposed to be on the otherside of barrier show up here? I learned in books that they were only found on the other side
Don’t tell me the barrier has been destroyed?
You gotta be kidding me?!
As the shock was too great, I lost my footing. This led to it bending at the wrong angle and kicking into the muscle at the back of my lower right leg, which in turn caused the angle of my right knee to be incorrect and rendered it unable to direct my thigh to move in such a way as for me to take a step forward… Although it all sounds terribly complicated, simply put, this situation can be summarized as—

I tripped.
And I tripped in midair.
Fortunately, my father had put me through both “reasonable training” and “unreasonable drilling”. It’s not that I want to brag, but thanks to those two types of special training for falling down, I can guarantee that even Ossan X can’t fall more elegant than I do… Although now that I think about it, it’s impossible for Ossan X to ever fall down, so there’s no way we can test that out.
I bent forward reflexively. My arms swept forward in graceful arcs like a ballerina’s to form a circle and I executed two complete forward somersaults, followed by a sideway twist… And I land! Lastly, I raised both arms over my head slowly and lowered them – like a butterfly’s wings – to rest at my side. I gradually regained my breath and then reverted to the Princely straight and graceful stance.
Anyways, Remember what I told you guys before about my father saying that “even if a Seijurou were to fall down, he must still fall down in an extremely elegant fashion”?
When I was old enough to be sent on military missions by the President, my Father – in a grave and well-meaning manner – gave me further instructions, saying, “Child, you are finally going out to carry out missions. As your father, I am extremely relieved, but there are some instructions that I must give you before I can truly be at ease.”
“I will definitely be careful, Father.” I felt extremely moved; my father is truly very concerned about me!
“Yes, child, you must be careful! Remember, a Seijurou must always maintain his graceful demeanor, regardless of time and place.”
I nodded my head obediently. “Father, I will complete my mission very gracefully.”
My father shook his head and said, “Child, completing the mission elegantly is but the basics.”
“Then what’s more advanced than that?”
“Child, you must remember, when you have failed your mission and are near death, at that time, you must…”
“Destroy my face and commit suicide so the enemy won't be able to gain information from me?”
“No, you must contemplate what sort of pose you will die in, and if that pose will be accompanied by a serene expression or a heroic one. Still more important is the question of whether you will die from a single thrust to the heart from your enemy or if you will slit your own throat, and so on and so forth. Only after all of the important circumstances surrounding your death have been planned out and arranged perfectly can you pass away in an elegant position as possible!

“Even in the face of death, a Seijurou must die very elegantly!”
“…”
Those words from my father gave me nightmares during my mission. Not because of the thought of dying but because of my father's way of thinking and for me finding it reasonable. I was afraid to become like my father - a person with warped personality.
While reminiscing about those times, I heard someone speak behind me.
"Nice landing"
I looked behind me to find the source of those words and found Brook with our teacher Vanessa.
I was confused. When did they get here? I didn't notice someone following me earlier while those thought passed on my mind Vanessa-Sensei spoke
"We arrived here awhile ago when we got a report that a being from other side of the barrier entered our forest. We don't have an information on how they passed through that unbreakable barrier"
Brook also added;
"Yeah, came here to support the seniors, but it seems like we no longer have to because you're already here"
When Teacher Vanessa heard him I thought that she will defend me from Brooks Malicious plan but..
“Yeah, I'm sure that the White Crimson Prince will be able to handle this – especially when he transform– he will become several times stronger. You guys had better not interfere, or else he’ll get angry. I know how it feels when fighting someone as weak as Craig so enjoy to your hearts content” Teacher Vanessa– being the great teacher that she is – explained to the students and even gave me a smile that said, “Don’t worry, I won’t let anyone interrupt your fight.”
But hold on a second! That’s because the Craig that I dealt with in the Combat Competition is only C class.
Just then, the body of the cerberus suddenly burst into black flames that reached for several meters around the heads. The Cerberus opened its three rotten mouths and gave an intimidating roar…
Very well! Perhaps I can begin to contemplate what pose I should die in and what expression I should have to go along with it, as well as choose my favorite way to die, and then gracefully return to the company of Ossan X and be reincarnated again…
I was just about to begin my contemplations by deciding what pose to die in when the cerberus actually looked at my direction and pounce on me with a body which was spitting black flames all over the place... Quit kidding around with me! How can I possibly die before I’ve properly considered what pose and expression to die with and made sure that I would die as elegant as possible!
I dodged its attack which made it extremely irritated, because as what I've learned Cerberus is an almighty beast, used by demons to defend their treasures and because they were given this kind of trust by the demons they started to become a prideful being
Which means just by being able to dodge its attack hurted its pride. Which in return made it even more terrifying. I suddenly remembered about my most treasured dream that I realised just awhile ago when I earned the summoning system.
'I must live through this moment so that I'll be able to enjoy the moment when I lose my virginity' while thinking that I raised my hand in air and said;
"Come forth, my beloved summon"
After saying those words, my shadow suddenly became large and a Mythical Creature showed his intimidating hands and crawled out until everyone can see his full body. It's my Manticore
When he's out the manticore looked at the Cerberus and turned his gaze at me and spoke;
"How do you want me to kill this arrogant bastard master?"
I met the gaze of my summon while I was frightened on the inside I still mustered my courage to speak so I can display my authority
"I'll have you assist me on beating that guy because you're still not strong enough to fight it alone"
When my manticore heard my words he nods his approval and just waited for my order.
I'm happy because its actually a loyal summon and not the type who disobey its masters orders after that I started chanting my form activation chant;
"Light is RADIANT because there is Darkness and Darkness is SUBLIME because there is Light"
And I transformed into Nura's night form which made the students flabbergasted. They were not able to see my form before because they were not around during the competition due to this trial expedition.
Now to complete my preparation
"Amidamaru"
Suddenly Amidamaru appeared behind me;
"Amidamaru in spirit ball form"
His spirit body shrink and formed into fireball, I immediately equipped harusamme and put his soul inside it
OVERSOUL!!

The Final Test
Earth was overtaken by the Calumnia ten years ago and if it weren't for the alien Occisio race who saved the remnants of humanity, Indi's race would have gone extinct. Now, at the age of sixteen, Indi and the other surviving children are about to complete their training and return to Earth to kill the monster that destroyed their world and killed their parents. However, the children on the Occisio's spaceship have been dismissed one by one in training tests and only a few of them remain. Will Indi prove himself skilled enough to become a soldier? Or will he fail humanity as his parents did? This short story (in 13 parts) is a love letter to fans of Ender's Game and Maze Runner. (I may eventually turn this into a novel but for now, I hope you enjoy this 10,000 word story about hope and overcoming one's weakness.) [This story will appear on other websites as well, such as Wattpad and Royal Road.]

These changes occur at the genetic level, and they are not your classic presto changeo. These changes are made of blood, pain, and pounds of flesh. The story begins with these transformations, and who knows when it'll end. This is currently becoming something; hopefully, it'll become something great. Keep your hopes up, because there is more to come.
