《I don't want to be a hero》Side Story: Class

"Ok class, today we are going to learn about powers and where they come from"(Teacher)
"Does someone know what a 1 dimensional, 2 dimensional and a 3-dimensional object is?"(Teacher)
"No one? ok, a 1-dimensional object is usually represented as a dot or a line, a 2-dimensional object is usually represented as a square and a 3-dimensional object is usually represented as a cube. Does someone can guess why?"(Teacher)
"No? Well, the reason why is because they represent how we perceive them. To put it simply, each dimension has the properties of the one before plus some more. A group of lines form a square and a group of squares form a cube. You kids get it now?"(Teacher)
"Yes, Timmy?"(Teacher)
"What does all this have to do with powers?"(Timmy)
"I am getting there! Look, the world we live on is a 3 dimensional one, ok? We can do anything a 2-dimensional world can, plus more. Now, let me ask you this question. If powered people can do anything a non-powered human can do plus more, why do you think that is, Timmy?"(Teacher)
"Iiii I I I doon'tt know"(Timmy)
"If you had paid more attention to the explanation instead of waiting for me to get to the point, you would have gotten it. Let's try again...... Sara, Why do you think?"(Teacher)
"Uh?Oh! yes!let see....... maybe because they are from the 4 dimension?"(Sara)
"Good! you got it almost right. It's not that they are from the 4 dimension, but that they can access it. Or, at least, that is the most approved theory by scientist right now"(Teacher)
" No one knows for sure, but most researchers agreed that their powers are somewhat related to the 4 dimension. That is also why most people believe that the powers can be soo completely random. Some can turn into animals, some can change form, some can run fast, some can heal while others can bent spoons, throw bubbles from his mouths etc. Yes, Harry?"(teacher)

"Why do they have different powers?"(Harry)
"A yes, that is a good question. Powered people are people that have the potential to connect to the 4 dimension, but the powers they get depends on their personality or circumstances. It has been proven that if you submit people to the exact same circumstances they can get the same or a similar power. For example, twins usually get similar powers.
Still, it is more complicated than that. Sometimes powers look the same but work completely different and sometimes they look completely different but are actually really similar
Most runners look the same, but actually, there are different types. Some generate force fields to spot the wind resistance, some can resist the wind resistance and some simply nullified it. The result is the same, but the process is completely different
Yes Timmy...."(Teacher)
"Why some powered get more powerful with time or learn new powers?"(Timmy)
"4-dimension again. As time passes, powered people keep accessing the 4-dimension and their power grows stronger or sometimes develop a new ability. It is a mixture of talent and luck, and most powered never have an increase of powers or get new ones. Besides, meddling too much with the 4 dimension usually leads to a calamity. Who knows what a calamity is?" Francis?(Teacher)
"A monster that threats humanity?"(Francis)
"It looks that way, but it isn't. It is actually a powered that got to close to the 4-dimension. When a powered gets too close to the 4-dimension, he or she either leaves the 3 dimension forever or becomes a calamity. Basically, they usually lose their minds and go on a rampage with their powers. Any powered can become a calamity at any moment and that is why most people are afraid of even the ones that only has the potential. In reality, calamities rarely happen and most are contained without many troubles. In this country, only 200 cases were reported in the last 50 years, and only 10 of them had major casualties.It may look like much, but it is only on the level of a couple of storms each year with a tornado or hurricane every 5 years, nothing catastrophic. Yes, Susan?"(Teacher)

"Can I access the 4-dimmension like the powered?"(Susa)
"You, or any kid on this facility for the matter, can't access the fourth dimension. Not in a get powers way at least. Everyone here probably heard about tests to see if a person has the potential, and no one here has that potential. As for studies for a normal person to access the 4-dimmension, they all ended in failure
Well, "Failure". To be more exact, they always either disappear or end up becoming a calamity, so most stopped trying"(Teacher)
*Riiiiiing*
"Ok kids, recess is here, go grab something to eat and don't forget to take your pills"(Teacher)
"Yes, doctor Harrison!"(kids)

Note: Thnx Neiden with the help with the grammar and I hope this help clarify some of yours and other readers questions about powers. If someone has a question about something just ask and I will either try to answer the question in a future chapter or just answer back(but do it in the last chapter publish)

Eleknar's Heir, The Infernal Prince (Demonic LitRPG)
A LitRPG and Epic Fantasy adventure: The son of a mafia boss finds himself abruptly plunged into an alternate world where he must find a way to survive the horrors of a realm called Oblivion, make pacts with demons, form unnatural friendships, and figure out what the hell is going on – all while dealing with the depressing reality of his past. An artificial intelligence has ascended into godhood and has thrown Trey’s home into Chaos, pulling millions of people into an enchanted new life... or, in Trey's case, a violent nightmare. As far as he can tell, he is locked into what the system prompts call a ‘Death Game.’ Here, artificial reality is manufactured for the enjoyment of a being called the All Spirit, and he has a very real chance of truly dying. Just how real is this place though? Is it merely a simulation, a realistic game of life and death… or is it something much more? Elves, dwarves, undead, and other races only thought to exist in fairy tales are now a reality. Black magics, pantheons of gods at odds with one another, predatory symbiotes, and an unholy calling, the significance of which he has yet to grasp, are all entangled with his fate. ============================================ ============================================ Some things to expect when reading this book series: - Brutal storyline where no character is safe and choices have real consequences. Heavy on action, survival, and adventure - An isekai. The main character struggles to find himself, repeatedly crossing the line between good and evil as other important characters influence his life - Harem (explicit), though this only starts about 180k words in. - Good amounts of crafting, town building, and guild building later on - Good amounts of fantasy-related LitRPG stats, rank ups, and evolutions. Heavy focus on demons and black magics - There will be many points of view, but there is only one primary/main character that takes up 90% of the POV - A long storyline. Currently (as of 7/26/2021) I have about 1500k words written, though much of it will have to be heavily edited and re-written. I also plan to go far beyond 1500k words if people like the story (A lot of it is also in the 'backstories' book that explores the guildmates, the link is below) - Chapters will have an average of about 4k-5k words, a little longer than most other books on RR, though there will be exceptions for more and less. I just didn't like posting chapters that didn't feel complete, and 2k words often felt like too little. - If you like super-heroic and goody-goody characters, this story is not for you. ***Updated once a week***

Second Wind, legend of Pandemonium (Finished/Incomplete)
The developers of the worlds leading VRMMORPG Edge Online have decided to shut down its servers after over a decade. Shugireth Darkstar, the leader of Pandemonium, Edge Online's top guild, suffers from a deadly disease and his end is near. He hasn't left his VR pod for 5 years, as the medical nanodroids at the hospital takes care of him. Without Edge, he will die, because his physical body has already been all but destroyed by the sickness. Seeing no light at the end of the tunnel, Shugireth Darkstar, the Master of Pandemonium, stubbornly stays behind as the servers shut down... If that was all, we could end this story right here. However, that was only the beginning of the legend of pandemonium. The prelude to the movement, if you will. Shall we see what happens next? -------------- Some notes from Me (The author, gasp surprise): I first wrote this (100k) as an experiment. I saw the advice about having foils for overpowered MCs, and I watched quite a few lectures on writing. I wanted to test things out for myself and see if I could carry a story through other ways than only relying on physical conflict like some thrillers do. Thus this might lean a bit towards slice of life with a romance subplot, but I don't want to give my story away so read it if u want to know more. This was basically never intended for anyone else's eyes but my own, and written to explore writing as a process. This wasn't my attempt at writing a good book, but it turned into something that I think might interest some people, so I decided to pop it up here. It is slightly old so my style and writing skills have advanced considerably since I first started this thing. Having said that, I think it's pretty readable, but I am very interested in how other people will receive this. Please feel free to criticize it and just in general shoot me some feedback on what you think. It contains light Litrpg elements, not heavy table spam, it's just the basis of the world. Although I like that sort of thing, this was written before I even knew of Royalroad and hadn't considered litrpg much. Some of you may recognize that it was slightly inspired by Overlord. Also, the Tags for sexual content and traumatizing content are there as a precaution on all of my stories pretty much, even if my story does not contain any of that at the moment. I can't really know what the future will bring, but in the case of this story I do know a little bit, since I wrote 100k words before posting it here. And I just posted it on a whim because I figured some readers on Royalroad might enjoy this story.
