Chapter 8 part 2
I'm once again in the Infiniti room with an angel standing in front of me. The angel is extremely beautiful with an hourglass figure with waist so small I thought it was only possible in cartoons and a face a that seems to always express happiness
Angel: "Welcome to the beginning of your adventure as Alex the human and his true identity Excel the sentient gauntlet. I'm the goddess of balance Parie would you like to begin your adventure in Tairon or would you like to make some changes" she said keeping that beautiful smile on her face.
A list appears in front of me customizable things that I can still change. Surprisingly I could still change the race of my avatar form. I took a very long amount time deciding whether to change anything or not ( if 5 seconds could be considered a long amount of time)
Alex: What are the current races my avatar can get.
Parie: The current unlocked races are
Unlocked races Human Elves Beast-men
Alex: (This is a complex decision I must spiritually feel which is better). "I choose you go beast-mon" I said while throwing an imaginable Pokeball to the blue screen in front of me. ( No that throw was wrong I should leaned back more imagined a bigger ball yes yes that would've been the correct action) I lean back and opened my hands wider next I ha-.
Purie: Excuse me have you reached a decision
Alex: Yes change my avatar name to Excel ( to make things simpler) and race to beast men ( Because why not ).
Purie: Usually the continent you go to is preselected but because your race you may go to any of the outer continents.
Alex: I pick the beast continent.
Are You Sure

Y/N
Alex: "Yes" I say in a bored voice (can't I simply start now).
Purie: "As you were able to choose your continent you will not be able to choose your spawn point," she says in a deadpanned voice betraying the smiling face.
You will be transported to a random spawn point with suitable levels
I'm once again transported in a cover of white light. As soon as I regained my sight I saw a bustling flea market filled with shops in what I would guess to be a medieval town square. Middle aged women haggling with merchants, little kids jumping around excited, and priests feeding the poor, where some of the saw and expected to see but seeing people dressed in shoddy armor and iron swords, magicians displaying magic to young kids, and priests healing the injured were a somewhat expected sight but still unusual sight to my mind where magic and adventurers didn't exist ( guess I'm going to have to get used to things like this aren't I ) rubbing my head as if foretelling the future problems it's gonna give. I went to one of the vegetable shops with a gentle looking old lady there and asked where I could find a store that sells maps.
Old Lady: "You're looking for an explorer guild, and I wish I could help you but I'm only visiting my grandson." she said.
Alex: "Oh, sorry asking thank you" I said in a depressed voice. I started to walk to a couple wearing only green.
Old Lady: "wait, if you really need a map I have a spare one but if you really need one you have to do something for me." she asked in a bargaining tone.
Alex: " I'll do anything " I said feeling my spirit rising.
Old Lady: " Well if you are really interested I'm a tailor and I wanted to make some clothing for my son and his wife if you get 4 rabbit fur I'll let you keep this map" She said presenting a rolled up map in her wrinkled hands.

Garcia the tailor asked you to get 4 rabbit fur Rewards: slight increase in affinity, a map of the surrounding area and the village, and 50 coppers Y/N
Alex: "YES, I mean definitely" I said nodding my head up and down
Old Lady: Well here's the Map go to the forest to find some rabbits and if you come here fast I'll pitch in some money for your services.

Reality Grants One Chance
Some people are lucky, some aren't, some - have terrible luck. Our "hero" is of the latter kind. During young age he got into an accident, which allowed him to learn the fact that he belongs to a rare group of people.. People diagnosed with lung cancer, which he, however survived. Can't say he's lucky, as his life went downhill from that point... Our story happens years later, when his fate decides to make a loop and throw him in the same kind of accident. He gets hit by a truck. Surviving the crash, suffering just a few scratches, he is ultimately "lucky" to find himself out of the hospital in no time.. however every bit of good luck always brings him terrible luck afterwards. This time pushing him maybe a bit too far.. How far? Making him vanish without a trace and find himself in the middle of an unknown forrest. Doesn't sound bad? He can consider himself lucky? Just wait and see...It can always get worse.. always.. .... Congratulations, you've made it through the intro and into the author note! If you by any chance missed the tags and didn't read the warning, please do that now. I really recommend you to. Before you jump to reading, and unintentionally scar yourself, do mind that the story is about a dark, unforgiving world, a world in which you have more opportunities to die a horrible death, than take a piss. Hero doesn't have great luck, he has dumb persistance, he doesn't go through any trial with a breeze, he pays the price of blood, flesh and tears to live..and will be paying for every mistake.. No one outright explains anything to him, just as us for the most part - he is not sure what the hell is going on.. Some real survival tactics are used as a base of the descriptions, they are as important to the world and character as any other element.. Mind that the story starts really slow, but as the stone starts rolling downhill - the pace gets faster.. Every tag for this novel has a reason to be there, so if you don't see the particular element there, don't panic.. it's either well camoufalged, subtle or simply not encountered as of yet. Big thanks to Hobbo, Enyhrye and Hveth! ...not only pointing that the description could be better, but providing invaluable input.. and being patient enough to give fleshed out advice.

Gaslgiht
There is a common line of questioning that falls upon students within their first moments at Kingsly. “Why?”. The student asks, “Why am I here?”. This is a futile line of questioning. There are those who remember, and those who do not. I’ll spare you the technical explanation — that’s what we have teachers for. The jist is as follows: those who remember are... how do I put this... more likely. They occupy more time. and the space that time has allowed them — the pertinent amount — is experienced no matter what. Allow me to offer you a bit of personal information: I am not one who remembers. There is no time relevant to me, no space that I occupy. I exist by carving myself here, and continue to exist in the same fashion. You would do well to follow suit. Why am I here? Because I force myself to be. Because the universe, the universes, for all its kicking and screaming, cannot escort me out.

Eliot Ness for Mayor
An everyman tests his mettle when a Voodoo god, in the guise of a kindly crackpot, thrusts him back in time and into a violent riot. Ironworker Frank O'Brien digs his life: great wife, tight family, and a job he loves, raising skyscrapers for a firm whose owner he respects. Smooth going until his boss, the owner's grandson, stirs racial and labor tensions. Soon, Frank's fighting the good fight, and standing tall seems to work. He even manages a few allies until a Voodoo god mucks up the works, knocking Frank back to 1966 and into the center of Cleveland's Hough riots to test his mettle. Needless to say, getting back to see his little girl's youth orchestra recital's gonna be a bitch. ELIOT NESS FOR MAYOR is a short novel of magical-realist fiction, a stand-alone book in the Shantytown Cycle. Written for National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo), I will be posting revisions as I complete them and should be done by early 2022, though I am making major changes so the timing may be longer. This book is cross-posted on two websites: Wattpad and Royal Road. Both are reputable, high-quality sites. Do not trust this book on other websites. They "scrape" material from reputable sites, posting the stolen material as an original to lure users in, but contain links that include malicious code.
