Will awoke earlier than normal so that he could get a head start on his training. He booted up his drones and prepared to begin his endurance and vitality training. He jogged to the trails that would lead him on his path through nirvana. The drones were set to follow and would need to be changed to firing mode when he started his jog. The trail he ran on was five miles long and he normally ran it at least twice or until he passed out. He then ran back to his home where he showered and then ate breakfast with his parents. "How is the training?" Shawn asked as Melany just listened to their conversations like normal. "I think I will be more than strong enough for the contest," Will said as he finished his breakfast and ran to his room to practice mana cladding. He was able to clad his arms from his fingertips to his elbow. He as now halfway to being able to boost his arm movement speed. He continued to progress in mana cladding until he was able to nearly reach his shoulders. The next stage would be to begin working on cladding his legs. His progress would be miraculous compared to anyone else's progress. He then showered and got ready for dinner. "Will, how far have you came in mana cladding?" Shawn asked Will as they were eating dinner. Will cladd his arms in mana and looked at Shawn. Shawn stared at Will with his mouth agape. "How? Why? How are your arms glowing so bright?" Shawn asked completely shocked. "I am cladding my arms in mana?" Will said uncertainly. "The more potent a person's mana is the brighter the glow when cladding mana. The brightest reported would be about as bright as a 3-watt light bulb." Shawn with awe as he was shocked by Will's potential. "Even though if I don't train then I won't be able to bring the most out of my Mana," Will said. "That is correct. We are running low on workers today is there any way you can come in?" Shawn asked> "Yeah, I am far enough in my cladding to take a break and taking a break today will let my muscles relax," Will said with a smile as he finished eating. Shawn and Will walked to the café and began their normal workday. Will this included taking orders and being petted. They worked for around three hours when it was time to close. Will and Shawn were walking home like normal when they heard a loud scream. It was coming from the sidewalk ahead. Will ran towards the scream without a second thought. "Will, come back we need to think this through!" Shawn screamed as he tried to stop Will. Will ignored Shawn and kept running. He saw something weird in front of the light pole. It looked like something that would be sold in the bakery. It was the size of one of the vermillion deer that Will fought. He moved closer to see exactly what it was, but he didn't pay attention to the slash marks on the pole or the human features on the pile of flesh. He reached down and rolled the pile over to see what it was, what he saw froze him in place. It wasn't the fact that it was a dead body or the fact that it was a dead human, what shocked him to his core was the memories of Verrad. A strong wind came through while Will was frozen. He was too far in the memories to notice the sounds of the pole breaking or Shawn's frantic screams. It was too late to notice when the pole struck him and the broken power cables hit him and accidentally in his struggles, turned himself into a mummy. At first, he didn't feel the pole landing on his back and pinning his legs to the ground, he did however awake when the broken power cable collided with bare skin. He felt as if very own flesh was trying to rip him apart and as if his heart was on the verge of exploding out of his chest cavity. In his struggles, he only made his situation worse until everything turned black. When he opened his eyes he saw the same stars as last time except for this time instead of just golden stars there was also stars that were an ice blue that looked so energetic that it could run away at any moment. He continued to watch the stars around him change between that energetic blue and a majestic gold. The stars finally dimmed and Will returned to darkness. He awoke to a pain he had never experienced before. His lower back felt as if it was being split apart inch by inch. His forehead was burning and in agony. He barely was able to maintain consciousness. He struggled to row to his elbows, he then fought through the pain and crawled out of the cocoon he made. And then all turned black as Will fell and passed out again. Will awoke to a hospital bed with his parents sitting in a set of chairs near his bed. "Will, your awake!" Shawn screamed as tears ran down his face. Melany jumped and tackled Will into a group hug, then followed by Shawn. "What happened?" Will said as he was finally able to breathe again. "You were hit by that pole and somehow got wrapped up in those power lines, the doctors said that there was a chance of you never waking up again," Shawn said through his sobs as he and Melany still had Will wrapped in their arms. "Who was it that was under the pole?" Will asked as he recalled the remains that reminded him of the Verrad incident. "They were unable to identify it. You also had another change." Shawn said as he handed Will a mirror. What Will saw left him in shock. His hair remained the same. His eye changed again, instead of the golden flecks there was also flecks of that energetic blue color that he saw in his dream. The most shocking thing was what was on his forehead slightly above his temples. It looked as if a set of ebony nails were starting to poke through his forehead, something that will only assume were horns that were starting to grow. "Will, I am quite shocked that you are awake. Especially considering the damage that was sustained to your nervous system." Said the doctor that came into the room as Will finished looking at his new physical changes. He then began to do a full check on Will to see if there was any lasting damage. "There isn't any signs of damage." The doctor said in shock. "So will he be able to come home today, doctor?" Shawn said as he looked towards him. "I would like to keep him overnight to see if there is any damage that I overlooked. Let's let him get some rest.' The doctor who still didn't introduce himself told Shawn and Melany. "Wait, how long was I out? " Will said confused. "Five days." The doctor said as he led out Will's parents. Will was shocked. What kind of change did I get this time? Will thought as he pulled up the Celestial System: Tabs: Injuries Skills Maps Main: Name: Willenstark Kraft-Will Race: ??-Tailed celestial fox Strength: 15 Agility: 19 Intelligence: 16 Charisma: 6 Luck: -23 Mana: 40 Mana Manipulation: 15 Vitality: 15 Endurance: 22 Willpower: 25 Light manipulation: 8 Lightning Manipulation: 5 Willpower: 18 Spirit: 12 battle Lust: 13 Mana Cladding: 5 At that moment Will finally gave up trying to learn how the system works. Did I get any more skills from this? Will thought as he pulled up the Skill tab. Skills: Movement: Grace (Passive) Light magic: Healing light (Active/Passive) Lightning magic: Lightning Blood (Active) Wait, What is this? Will asked confused. "Lightning Blood - Uses mana as a conduit to increase response time." Will was shocked to see this life-saving skill. This is exactly the kind of trump card that I need for the tournament. With this, I will be able to use it to increase my reaction speed and further my adaptability to any challenge. Will thought with a smile as he fell asleep. The next morning Will woke up and after a few hours of testing, he was able to return home where he sat on his bed and marked down the days to the tournament. "I should be able to master the boost spell and begin working on the resistance one. There are five weeks left until the tournament begins. This is going to be fun. "Will said with a laugh.

The Pugilist
Vincent Roy Salazar has never been your common folk. He climbed any mountain he found in front of him. From a bright young student to an accomplished professor, his life can be described as a continuous race to the top of his chosen fields. Patriarch of a loving family, proud father of three already grown siblings, Roy realizes that his life is the perfect picture of what the average man strives for, and for that he is truly grateful. But happiness is a difficult-to-reach goal, and as he lies in a pool of his own blood, his fist cracked, a young lady crying while cradling his head, he remembers what really gave sense to his youth. Pure Unadulterated Violence The Pugilist wants to be a different take on isekai shenanigans. What would happen if instead of a moronic idiot, a depressed high schooler, or a wannabe hero the one to get his do-over is a fully grown man that has already seen what life has to offer in full? Someone who conformed himself to society, but has always craved something different? In a journey of self-discovery, academy building, god-slaying, and absolutely no harem we follow someone driven by logic, experience, and a smokey goal: to fuck shit up, have fun while doing so, and maybe resume his career as a professor for those strange, magic-wielding, unstable youths that seems to never get enough of his presence. Guys, a few notes, first of all, this is my first time writing long-form fiction. I have a background in psychology, and my main income comes from writing dreary financial articles on SEO blogs. But after a bad break-up, and finding myself falling asleep only while thinking of deus ex machina for stories on this site (and for APGTE) I decided to try my hand at this web series thingy. I'm confident in my grammar, but that's it. Everything else will be a first time, and as such any constructive criticism is encouraged and gratefully accepted. Now, on the story. Romance will be introduced once my little heart is mended, if you are scared of LGBT you may be turned off by the fact that I plan to have no taboo of any kind in my universe, but I won't ever write detailed sex scenes for any characters so don't worry too much. The litRPG part is very light and will take place later in the novel, but it's a key component nonetheless, for world-building and storyline reasons. I already have everything big planned out, so I won't drop it outta nowhere, and I hope you won't find too many flaws in how things pan out. I plan to make The Pugilist an interactive story, with secondary characters created by my audience and introduced after tweaks and careful planning. The main reason I'm writing this is that I want to build a community for myself in this time of isolation. I discovered that exercising, playing the piano or video games means jack-shit when you are utterly miserable, so I hope to give some value to my readers in exchange for praise, fame, money, and companionship. I give full props to anyone who has read this whole mess of a synopsis: I hope to not disappoint too much, now let's write some more steaming garbage that will be in dire need of editing later on.

A Mildly Odd Reality Breaker
Omar receives an unexpected visitor who comes baring a gift—a "registration ticket"—in the form of a small metal card. The ticket is itself an offer to participate in the game, "Reality Break." Accepting this offer means that Omar will be able to perceive the true nature of reality where there is not one, but two dimensions of time, and in this second dimension history changes (and somewhat "frequently"). Along with this, he will also gain access to the "chronopause"; another reality that is not so much parallel to our own as it is perpendicular, which acts as both a place and the natural boundary between non-sequential points on the timeline. Using the chronopause, Omar will become a chrononaut with the ability to travel through time, and as a player, he will be given a cybernetic interface and his own portable extradimensional storage space. It's a strange conversation, but due to Omar's dismally short attention span, he only consciously hears that last bit about the portable pocket space, and that's only after the physics-defying void is opened in his living room and literally waved in front of his face. Reality is certainly stranger than most people realize, but then again, so is Omar. Thankfully, he responds well to shiny things, and for better or for worse, his chronic inattentiveness is the least of his psychological issues. Omar also has a mild form of "Oppositional Defiant Disorder" which presents itself as an occasional, arbitrary need to disobey others (especially authority figures). However, his oddest psychological issue by far is his "abnormally hyperactive" subconscious mind. Outwardly and consciously, Omar is a lazy, apathetic man-child prone to mildly asinine behavior. Subconsciously, he's some sort of genius capable of extraordinary feats of cognition. Most of the time, Omar is a (technically) functioning adult, but in order to live as such, he must rely entirely upon unusual abilities he's completely unaware of, despite the fact that he uses them regularly. Up until now, his life had merely been ridiculous, but now it was also a game. Note: The narrative style is that of a reliable narrator with a "3rd-person sarcastic" POV. This story takes place in the Reality Breakers/Chronopause universe.
