Mechanized Body (edit 1)
Unknown Location
in the darkness of the warehouse a clear circular space appears cutting a few openings into the surrounding containers.(imagine the Terminator Time Jump effect!) in the center of the cavity is a black armored humanoid that is kneeling as if it has just landed from an incredible height. the individual stirs from its posture and stands up looking around its surroundings. inside many of the containers there are many armored suits of type 1-4's and several broken or cut armors and weapons. observing its surroundings it begins to move sensing something unique in the nearby vicinity of the building. moving in between the containers and through the labyrinth in the warehouse it finds a door towards the wall and approaches it. the armored figure opens the door and see stairs going down toward the basement. his senses of some rare armored material makes the being curious and continues down the depths of the building.
the Armored figure has been traveling down for so long that it feels that it has been going down for a couple of days. it passes by doors and yet it's senses are telling it to continue down the stairs. going down what felt like the last few floors of stairs the figure finally reach the bottom of the floor and see a large double door covered in dust as if something has been left and forgotten. curious he approaches the door and then for some reason the doors themselves open up slowly like those automatic doors in its memories. seeing inside the room are rows upon rows of armored suits on the walls and continuing down the hallway. feeling that there is nothing wrong the armored man goes into the room and down the hallway glancing curiously at the armors on the walls wondering if he should absorb them.
looking above each armored suits there are names or numbers carved like "Experimental" or "NewType EXP" with numbers. continuing down the hall the figure sees another set of double doors but this one is heavily reinforced and there are laser lights all around the room before the door. curiously the feeling still pulls it toward the door and in doing so walk into the room activating an alarm system of sorts. hearing the blaring of alarms the figure just simply ignore it and continue to the door and wondered how to get through the door itself since it did not open like the ones before. giving up on pushing the door the armored person just put his hand on the door and let out blue chain lights onto the metal itself absorbing it. continuing for 10 minutes the double doors were finally absorbed and inside the room is a set of armor that is truly unique and in a complete state compare to the ones in the hallway.

approaching the highly mechanical armor the figure puts its hand on it and senses a presence within the armor. the presence has a sense of familiarity like it is a part of itself. feeling odd about why the armor feels familiar the being attempts to absorb it sending out the oh so familiar blue chains that connected to it. instead of the usual absorbing way the armor suddenly opens up and pulls the figure within itself. sealing the entity within the armor suddenly excruciating pain is felt all over the beings body as if it is being pulled apart until it becomes unconscious. while passed out the being is absorbing the armor and the form begins to adjust to the new body type that is mechanical in nature and start replacing many of the electrical parts with mana.

Overlooking the warehouse complex
Miya and Liza is leading a new group of academy cadets to get new gear for training in the newly built Planetary academy. Many of the cadets were not human some were dwarves, elves, beast-men, as well as demi-humans/hybrids. while going down the rows of warehouses that store equipment they finally reach the building with number 666 marked beside the huge double doors.
[Miya]
“Alright cadets we will be going in to get your training gear even though they may be the old types they still pack a punch so don’t even think about playing with the gear.” Giving a stern warning to her students like how her teacher did when she was in the academy before her demise.
[Liza]
“That is correct since these are still military grade gear so please make sure to seek our permission before discharging any type of weaponry since we are in an age of peace.” Making sure she reinforced her friends warning in a lightly warmer way.
[Student/Cadets]
“”Yes Instructor!” all together.
Nodding in approval Miya opens up the pad near the double doors and begin to type in a coded sequence and after that Liza swipes in a special keycard. The doors then begin to open inwardly automatically showing the stacks of military grade gear packed on the wall and in boxes according to type. After entering into the warehouse with the students to start getting their gear Miya notice that there is a large circular outcrop in the center of the room and a few glowing splotches that are traces of highly concentration of mana turning into liquid. She turns to her friend and partner and nods to her. Knowing that something is wrong Liza picks up her radio and starts calling in all of the cadets to gather at the gate and also call in for reinforcement while taking out one of the many weapons and loading it with live ammo. Miya moves to investigate the area will taking one of the pistols and loading it up as well as taking a few mags for insurance. Liza meanwhile protects the students who are suddenly very weary while trying to put on Type.1 Gear that they manage to get before being radioed. Each of the students start moving as one to arrange any of the none explosive crate boxes in a form of a barricade in case they may have to shoot something inside the warehouse while taking cover.

Miya notices some mana liquid footprints leading from the circular like terminator teleportation that she once saw in an old movie and follow it cautiously. She notices that there is a door at the end of the warehouse that was not suppose to be there in the building plans.
[Miya]
“Liza there is a slightly opened door here that is not suppose to be here in the floor plans from the last time I checked before we got shipped into being instructors!” weary that there is an unknown and bad feeling creeping up her back.
[Liza]
“stay right there reinforcement should be on the way to help us out!” speaking a bit louder in the radio to try and keep her friend from doing something stupid.
[Miya}
“sorry Liza but im going in to check things out so stay there with the kids until help arrives.” Telling her friend before pushing the opened door further to reveal a set of stairs.
[Liza}
“dammit Miya don’t be to F..Kin reckless and charge on your own into danger!” shouting over the radio due to the feeling that she always have about her reckless cybernetic friend.
After waiting for a reply she started to hear static on the other end.
[Miya/Radio}
“I …..bzzt….. e …….ine…….. worr…… handle…….self!”
[Liza]
“Miya you are breaking up please repeat that!” calling to her friend but instead.
[Radio]
“bzzzttttt…. Crackle……..bbzzz……….” no reply
[Liza]
“Miya you better not be pulling a prank on me cause I am going to be piissed if you don’t come back right now!!!!” shouting into the radio.
[Miya/Radio]
“dow…….bzzt…….airs…….room…..ull……. proto……. uits…. Ecking………prints…..ead…..to……..bzzt” replyed from the radio.
Seeing the exchange from their instructors the students were beginning to worry and started to notice that not all of them are present.
[Student 1(girl)]
“ummmm Instructor Liza” hesitating to tell her teacher.
[Liza]
“yes” turning to her students to see that they are worried about something. Even though she is already stressed from her friends antics.
[Student 2(boy)]
“we are missing one person” hesitantly telling her.
Eyes widening Liza start counting her students and seeing who is here and all but one student is accounted for.
[Liza]
“where is she!” about ready to tear her hair off figuratively from not keeping track of an important VIP student.
[Student 3(girl]
“ummm instructor she mentioned that she sensed some sort of familiarity nearby and went to check it out and did not come back.” Scared of being made to run the whole training field for her friend’s trouble while also pointing in the direction of the door.
[Liza]
"what am i going to do if something happens to that priestess!" graouning about the orders she and her friend got from HQ about protecting the important VIP Elf.
she decided to radio her friend as a heads up if the priestess followed her.

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.

Awakening an ancient civilization from their past may be their only hope now. A spiraling doom awaits the world of Isulia. **************** I put the gore warning not because my book is overly gory (It's not constantly blood and guts). However, there are several moments that are extremely violent. I've always loved shows/movies such as, (The Expanse, The Boys, Banshee, Kingdom of heaven, Vikings, Attack on Titan, Baccano, etc.) I am descriptive of the scenes with violence. So be warned :) I've worked long and hard and have finally finished my third draft. Still needs work but everything storywise is complete. There are still a few things I need to add and tweak. Grammatical errors and flushing out the characters and dialogue still needs work. If you see any errors or plot holes, please feel free to point them out. It helps me improve upon the story.
