Chapter 10: THE SECOND DAY
"Listen, there are 2 hours before midnight. I want you to do everything you need to do such as drinking and eating. Cause when midnight comes, we don't have time to rest. So rest, for now, don't do anything straining. Be prepared for what's coming."
Kyle woke them. They need to equip their armors and weapons before the monsters attack.
To add Lane to his plan, he needed to know her ability. Kyle asked Miriam about it. Currently, she was the closest to the child. The kid was not stable right now and he didn't want to scare her.
Miriam faced Lane and asked her about her Awakening skill.
" Skill?"
The child muttered.
" Yes, I'm talking about your special power. Hm, how about I will tell you my power, Lane. I can see outside when I close my eyes. My Skill is called Clairvoyance. That's my special powers, what's yours? Can you tell sister?"
Miriam put her best smile to encourage her.
"... I... I don't have it."
The little girl looked down, clenching her two small fists.
"Oh... ah?"
Miriam had a confused look, it seemed that she didn't understand it.
"I- don't have a special power. Sob sob I'm sorry… "
Lane's voice was fragile and low. She was afraid that they would get angry.
Kyle chuckled listening to them. He clapped his hands because of what he heard.
" You didn't kill any monsters. Wow, to survive in the 1st event is really a miracle, let me guess. You just hide until the announcement came, right?
He said with disdain.
" Kyle you are not helping!! It's okay dear, as long as I'm here no one's gonna hurt you."
When Kyle heard Miriam's words he couldn't control his mouth and laughed.
" Kuhahaha, Is that a joke? Miriam, are you listening to me? No one escaped this place not killing any monsters. There are only two possibilities for her, it's to kill or to be killed. We can't pamper her Miriam."
"But..."
" Then I'll protect her too."
Mikael stepped in. He couldn't accept Kyle's principle, it was too f*cked up.

Mikael didn't want to see a little girl killing monsters. He wanted the child to remain pure in this crazy f*cking world. You could say that he treated it as hope. He wanted to prove that this Awakening Event is wrong morally and ethically.
" Then be my guest. If you help and protect others, then you'll be the first to die."
Kyle waved his hand and let it be.
" Just say what you want, but we'll never lose hope. No matter wha-"
" I'll fight"
A voice interrupted them.
The three saw the child looking at them. Her eyes were full of conviction. She was afraid, but her feelings won't save her from the monsters.
She needed to change, she needed to fight. Lane would overcome this on her own.
" I- I don't wanna see brother and sister die because of me. I'll fight on my own. I- I'll get special powers!"
Kyle grinned when he heard her, he said.
" Good, that's the answer that I want to hear. Listen, kid, in this event, no one will save you except yourself. Remember that."
He wanted to teach the child to become stronger.
"You must fight for you to survive."
He wanted the child to get stronger... because he knew what kind of hell they going to face after a decade.
He didn't want to waste his time helping people that would die because of their cowardice. He wanted Lane to get stronger, to face the upcoming world.
" Do you understand? "
"Uhn!!"
The child nodded.
"Good. Now be ready. Mikael, give her a leather armor and a dagger to protect herself."
"... Okay."
Kyle may have been cold-blooded, but he still had a good heart. Mikael knew it.
When the Event summoned the 500,000 Awakeners. They already knew that they would become crazy. And Lane… she was already insane. Her innocent eyes were already gone. She witnessed the truth of this world. She saw how strong men rape a woman. She witnessed murder, stealing, and brutality. Survival of the fittest, she realized that she needed to become strong.

" Listen Lane, if you see wounded monsters that are unable to fight. I want you to stab them, okay?"
" Y- yes, Sir!!"
.....

[Announcement: 12 Midnight has come. Monsters are attacking the castle.]
Miriam closed her eyes. She scouted the enemies.
"They are the same, but I can see goblin shaman/mage or whatever. I saw some large orcs too. These two are the added variation in their army."
Kyle nodded.
"Mikael, if you spotted a goblin shaman or orc chief, I want you to handle them. Kill the shaman quickly, they are annoying."
" Wait, can I handle them? Am I safe? This is not dangerous right? "
" What level are you?"
"Level 17"
" It's enough, you can face them. "
Kyle tapped his shoulder to convince him. However, Mikael shook his head.
"What's enough!? Hey, this is my life we're talking about here. I won't do it if your plan is not safe!"
" They are coming!!!"
" Ah f*ck!! I hope I can do this!"
A wolf attacked Mikael but he slashed it.
A hobgoblin tried to throw rocks, but its head had been cut off.
This scene repeated many times that you'll get tired watching this repetition.
.....
....
...
..
.
" Stop! Aahhh!!!! Someone help me!!!"
"Shit don't touch me! I don't wanna die!!"
The man stabbed the person who was holding his feet. He didn't want to be eaten next.
The Awakeners in every part of the Castle were doing their best to survive. Some try to fight the monster, some try to hide, but all of them were doing their best to be alive.
" Aahh!"
A woman used her Skill to kill an orc that tried to eat her.
" Raaarrrggghhh!!!"
A goblin shaman screamed when his body was burned alive.
"Wwaahhhhh mama papa mama wwaahh"
You could hear the crying voices of children that miss their parents.
This scene was repeated in each Castle of District 1,2,3 and 4.
Hundred thousands of people were doing their best just to be alive. All of them were afraid that's why they need to survive.

Another day has passed.
" Pant, pant. Are we finished? Pant, pant another miracle huh. I thought I'm gonna be dead again hah hah pant pant"
Miriam caught her breath and fell. Slashing monsters was a no easy task. Especially if it was endless.
" Lane, are you okay? Come, come here to sister. Did you get hurt? I saw you bleed earlier, does any part of your body hurts? I have potions, you can drink them. "
" I'm okay sister. The bleeding stopped and healed on its own when I fought. "
" Is that so, we are lucky that we are inside the Rejuvenating Room. I don't know what will happen if we don't have it."
She breathed in and continued.
"Except the location which gives us disadvantage because we are the first to be attacked... I can say that this room is amazing. It's a heaven-sent. "
" You're right. Though seriously, I never thought that the most valuable player will be Lane. Your Skill is a must! A plant that prevents the monsters from moving is sure great. "
Mikael looked at the child. He has mixed emotions about it when he saw the child full of blood...
" Th- thank you very much"
Lane was glad that she could help them. At first, she was nervous and scared when the monsters came. But when she awakened her skill [vine trap] her nervousness has vanished.
[Lane Sterville]
[Level 11]
[ Skill:
Vine trap: control the vines to attack or bind an enemy]
Kyle patted her head.
" Your Skill helped us a lot. Thanks"
"... You're welcome "
"Listen, just like what we did yesterday. Find any equipment that we can use. If you saw any clothes, take them. You don't want it to disappear. When you are finished tidying, we will go to the Pond and wash ourselves."
" And you? What are you gonna do? "
"...."
"Y-yes, yes, I'll do it okay."
Those menacing eyes stopped Mikael from saying his dissatisfaction.

Monster Soul Online
Monster Soul Online. A virtual reality MMORPG known primarily for one thing: there are no rules. It is a lawless world where humans can shed the masks they wear and unleash the cruel beasts inside. It is in this very world that our story takes place. After our protagonist, Sila, is defeated in a match that was in no way fair, he is forced to venture into this world after his master goes missing. The only clue? His opponent from the duel, Montra, says that he kidnapped Sila's master. Outside of the game, they are but two young men in a vast world filled with many kinds of people. Inside Monster Soul, however, Montra reigns supreme as the Magic Emperor, one of the top four players. Sila, on the other hand, is just starting out, and he has a lot of catching up to do if he wants to get answers from Montra. But not everything is as it seems in this world, and what starts off as a simple journey to find his missing teacher turns into a quest of previously unpredictable proportions. Sila uncovers a world beneath the reality he thought he knew, filled with martial artists capable of incredible feats. From the legendary Tiger God to the peerless Sword Prodigy, Sila will learn about and even meet some of these figures that other martial artists both revere and fear. His quest will push him to his limits and bring out both the best and worst parts of his inner self. His light and his darkness. Whether he makes it out while retaining some part of his original personality or not, only time will tell.

Who doesn’t like fantasy? Worlds full of interesting and new things that baffle the mind of anyone. Races like elves, dwarfs, and beast peoples, roaming the land, in search of different things that might be banal from them but incredible for others. And if you are someone who comes from an otherworld you will certainly receive a great power, rare equipment, trustworthy companions or even a harem, while you are tasked to fight the Demon Lord and his army made of monsters, for peace and glory. But have you ever asked this question: What is like to be on the other side? Follow the story of Steven Torres, who was abducted from his world with his classmates only to be thrown away into a chaotic world as the most hated race. While the hero’s job is to fight for justice, his at least a lot simpler. To survive, another day. ( I moved here: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/39906/summoning-went-wrong)
8 82The Lies They Told Me: Short stories from my life
Like many of my peers, I've discovered that life is not quite what I expected it to be. As I age, I've begun to find that many of the sayings and truths that my parents, authority figures, and friends have passed on to me were outright lies. Every person I know has been subject to the same interactions, which got me thinking, why not write a compilation of stores about my life experiences to date. I hope that this book will help all of us come to terms with the realities that we face today or deal with some of our deepest feelings about the past. Maybe these people lied to us and maybe they honestly believed the myriad of things they told us, but either way I think we can have a good laugh looking back and remembering the first times that we realized these things weren't true. I also hope that you can look back at the lies, or life lessons, that you've learned and can be inspried to own your stories and share them with others in a genuine way. Wiithout further ado, I hope that you enjoy the many short stories of my life that made me who I am today. These stories range from funny to down right surrel, so good luck on your journey!
