'Hey, Fin do you have some sort of illness with numbers?' I asked Fin telepathically as I sat in my seat looking at the ceiling.
I was seated in a dark room all alone so I could absorb the Qi without being disturbed...At least that was the plan but alas there was nothing I could do about this mental ability.
I mean it's very useful ability in many cases especially in our situation this kind of ability is to die for but, right now I have more negative comments about it than positive.
'It's not that I have illness with numbers, I just love numbers.' Fin Objected.
'To the point that you dream about numbers?' I Questioned and he went silent for a while 'Leave me alone, none of the others are complaining so why are you?' He Whined.
I put my hands over my chest 'I don't know, maybe because I am the one who has to deal with you every night.' I said in a sarcastic tone.
'Well, I have things I have to do now so let's talk later.' He said and disconnected from the server.
I also disconnected from the server. To be honest, it's not much of server but that's the only way I can put it in words, I don't know what it is really.
Sigh
I stood up from my chair and turned on the lights and went to the mirror and looked at it.
I looked at my short blond hair and blue eyes as I put my hand over the scar on my forehead. A cold deadly flashed through my eyes as I thought about my past.
I close my eyes for a while before I opened them and went to the table. I picked up a gun and put it behind me as I put on a leather jacket and left the house I was in.

..............................................................................................
After leaving my house I went towards my bar and took the keys out to open it. Just before I opened it I saw that the door was already open.
I Frowned as I took out my gun and hide it behind my leg as I walked into the bar without making any sound or leaking out any of my presence.
The moment I got into the room the light turned on and in front of me an old man was sitting in a chair looking at me with wine in his hands.
"Not bad, if I was any other normal person I wouldn't even know whether you were here or not." The old man spoke, I could clearly see that the man was whispering and yet his words reached my ears as if he was right next to me.
'This old man's aura is similar to the boss's.' I thought as my killing intent rose higher and I took the safety of my gun.

"If I were you I would tread carefully with my action's, don't let this face fool you. If I wanted you dead you would have been already." The old man said in a cold tone and my body froze as the old man let out a terrifying killing intent.
I could no longer move, it was as if my body was no longer in my control. I gritted my teeth as I could only look at this man while being at his mercy.
"Who are you?" I asked the old man.
"I am someone who is here to clean up the messed you made, but seeing that you are not that weak I must say bravo, most people faint when I release my killing intent." The old man said in a mocking tone.

I smiled at the old man "Clean up the mess I made? Then may I ask what this mess is?" I said as tried to get control of my body again, this is the third time in my life that I have been suppressed like this. The whole reason I went after strength is so I would not be in this kind of situation.
The old man tilted his head as he put down the glass he had "Resisting is a futile young man, you won't be able to get lose." The old man said as he walked towards me.
As he came close I could hear my heartbeat get louder and louder.
The man stopped right in front of me "I came here because I was told you not only killed my men but you are also creating your own group in my territory. To be honest I would have just killed you already but seeing you made want to give you options so make sure to choose the right one." The old man said as he put his hand behind his back.
"One, You can die by my hands right here right now or two, you can join me and I will open a whole new world for you." The old man said and I laughed at him with a mocking smile on my face.
"Kids these days are so prideful they don't know what is good for them, fine I will grant your wish, you can DIE!" The old man said as he moved his hand towards my heart.
Halt...
His hand came to halt just before it touched me and the old man frowned as he looked behind me.
I raised an eyebrow as to why this man stopped but then I suddenly felt a huge amount of qi and killing intent being released behind me.
I looked towards where the qi was coming from and a silhouette could be seen.
"Why did you stop didn't you say you would kill him?" A deep cold voice could be heard as a silhouette emerged from the dark side of the room and stepped into the light.

Nero Zero
Monsters plagued the lands for too long. No matter if one had fangs, beak, teeth, skin, fur, or feather, or was tall, stout, or diminutive, the people suffered. Until the Gadgeteers came with a device that could allow people to fight back. Powered by one's own magical power, feeding off of monster Essence, the Arbitrium bracer turned the tables. It also changed society. Strength of one's level cap was all that mattered. The strongest were Kings and Emperors. The weak or those too poor to afford the marvelous device, destitute. And so it has been for millennia. All that mattered was one's level cap. High, low, a fate decided the moment the strange contraption came alive. Too high and you were a threat to those interested in keeping the status quo, a weed to be nipped before it could grow and take root. Too low and you were nobody, fated to be a bit more than a simple farmer. What if someone, somewhere, came up with a zero for their level cap? Unable to use Essence, unable to level up. On all of recorded history, it never happened. Until it did. In a small village of fur-less and tail-less ape-beastkin, a boy found out he was uniquely handicapped. Nero's level cap was Zero. But he'd never let that stop him from reaching his goals. ------------------------------------------------ All stories have already been told. We merely reuse elements from them. From Joseph Campbell's Monomith to Stephen King's advice, and that encyclopedia of tropes you've visited, fiction has been dissected and reassembled countless times. One will surely find elements inspired on other works here. Just like cooking from basic ingredients, the recipe and presentation is what really matter. This is a fantasy adventure, of someone that goes from a zero to a slightly bigger zero. It will have romance but no harem. Cruelty but with hope dimly shining ahead. Lightweight where it can be, heavy where it must. Thanks for reading. Cover Credits (The cover is CC-BY-NC-SA): Steampunk Spider Bracer, by Daniel Proulx.
