《John the Average Knight: Marvellously Mundane》Book 1 Chapter 7

“It should be Jane.” Angus decided.
Patrick nodded. “She is the General, after all.”
“That doesn’t mean that I shoul-”
“You aren’t just our commander, Jane. We all owe you our lives several times over and, if you could do that without John’s… abilities…, imagine what you could do with them?” Angus replied.
Patrick nodded. “She is our saviour, after all.”
“But-” She started.
John interrupted. “Don’t I get a say in this?”
“Even if any of that wasn’t true, you’re the smartest of all of us – if anyone can figure all this ridiculous stuff out, it would be you!”
Patrick nodded. “She is a genius, after all.”
“Could you all please stop ignoring me?”
You guys… Jane smiled. “Alright, but I’ll be giving you my first levels, too.”
John sighed, looking resigned. “Hud? How do we do this?”
The knight’s eyes glazed over, his face blank.
“Do you think he’d notice if I punched him?” Angus questioned innocently.
Jane turned to him. “Of course, he’d notice! Don’t be such a child!” Would he notice?
Looking down, Angus kicked at the ground. “I poked him last time, pretty hard, and he didn’t feel it then!” He mumbled to himself.
I’m curious now… damnit, Angus!
John blinked, coming back to reality. “Set Jane Stone permissions, User.”
Checking level (John Stone)… complete
Deducting 1 level (John Stone)… complete.
Integrating with User… complete
Initiating System… complete
Uhuh… that’s just weird…
And that is rude, Jane Stone.
What? Who are you? Wait, are you like Hud?
Sigh. Yes, I am ‘like’ Hud.
You didn’t sigh, you just said it…

Jane took a moment to read over the text that had appeared in front of her.
John chose Powered, didn’t he?
He did, yes, but I would not recommend that option. It is quite unreliable! Skilled is a much be-
I choose Powered.
Oh, dear. I hope you’re lucky.
Growth option selected: Powered

True Psion (Mutation)
What’s True Psion mean? And mutation? Is that good?
Jane… that’s a fantastic ability! But it’s a mutation…
What?
Sorry, dear…
Jane collapsed to the ground, screaming as she clutched her head.
Mutations hurt, dear.

Where magical energy still exists. Where gods play games among themselves, with the fate of mortal men as pawns. A land where a sword is deadlier than a five-inch thick contract drawn by a hotshot lawyer. Would you survive? That's Tyler West.
