"Kurva"
[That's really something. Those skills, and YES, the solar charger! I can use my phone. I can use my phone! Fucking AWESOME!!]
In fact, I haven't used my phone for a while, because I really didn't need to and till now didn't have any means of charging it.
"Ok, now the mystery boxes..."
The first box contained some tomes and books
about the world, magic and some interesting spells.
In the second one were candies, waffers, bottle of cola and chips.
[Yes, nice, but I don't like cola, its too sweet and disgusting. I'm just glad that these chips have at least some decent flavor]
The third box made was probably the best one. 20 Watt JBL reproducer.
That means... MUSIC.
The fourth was rather simple, a binocular. Quite decent to be said.
And the fifth one..... dramatic moment..... an HDD. HDD full of movies, music and porn.
[Dude, you just know how to make man happy, Yesss]
After the fight was I really exhausted, hungry, thirsty and needed to pee, BUT I was so fucking happy that I've got this stuff, especially the reproducer and porn.
Ok, not just the porn, music and movies are also nice, but the porn is just the best part. It's quite shame, that there wasn't any alcohol. Yes, I know, should be a little modest, shouldn't I?

Next morning
After quick breakfast, I got heavy on my thoughts.
[What should I do now? Yes, I'd like ti find civilization, however, how far is it?]
I realized, that thinking too much about this kind if things is contraproductive.
The best way to get rid of depression or bad mood is sex or work.
And Because I can't currently have the first, I decided to read some books I got. The language skill is really formidable, like I completely understand what is written here.
There were three books which have some value. History of Otac, How to understand Humans and Travel book of Teris Leza.
Otac was a name of the first state that even formed, that was about 10000 years ago. This state existed for about 500 years when it was destroyed by barbarians. But it was first attempt of civilization and gave the basis of administration and governance.
The book How to understand humans was made for non-human race like beastmen, demons and etc. It gave an insight to human culture, language, tradition and sexuality.
There are many human countries mostly kingdoms, empires or republics. Humans in this world aren't too different than earthians, according to the pictures in the book. Humans speaks mainly with two big languages, Alterian and Grivian.
There are of course many others languages and dialects, but these two are main and most humans could speak at least one of them.
Humans are mainly living on continent called Great Pexa, even though some primitive tribes were spotted on the Savage continent. About races, the black people are only living in the north parts of Savage continent.
"Asians" live in the Dragon Mountains and on the foot of these mountains.
Rest of continent is inhabited by whites.
Even though this world's humans aren't too religious, there are three major churches. Church of Dragon beliefs, that The Elder dragon once found this world and formed it to its will. Since then, he lives hidden in vast Dragon mountains, protecting this world from malevolent gods of outside.

On peninsula Alter reigns Church of Ter.
According to them, there were once a lone god, Ter, reigning over the wasteland world. He got so bored of this, that he committed suicide. His body shattered to countless pieces which created the mana elements and life.
Its being said, that only his mind remained there, watching his body, his creation.
And finally, there are those who worship The Seven. The Seven main gods, one for each element, one for each psychical affection. Those gods don't any have names. They are just named after their elements, Earth, Fire, Water, Wind, Light, Darkness and The God of Life.
[Dammit, as expected from fantasy
There are really lot of diversity, and that is just for humans]
The book then told about communication, sociology and etc., but this is not so different from Earth.
[Wow, there is even a map there]
There was also a map on the last pages.
I spent half a hour looking at the map. This world is heck complex. There are five big continents, many empires, kingdoms, some belongs to humans, some to elves, dwarfs and even demons. Many mountains and rivers creates natural borders while plains naturally makes the best places for farming.
[I would just like know where da fuck I am]
"Your body was successfully adjusted to contain Mana"
"Whaat?....Mana?......FUCK YEAH!!!"
[Ok, let's try some skills. Just, its shame, that thing didn't give me some attack spell]
I picked some random stone, which was lying around.
[And now, how to cast?]
During that month I spent there, I somehow learned how to control the System by just thoughts, so I tried to do it that way.
[Scan]
"Stone
Type/Name: Feldsparical granite
Composition: Unknown, probably compositions made mainly of potassium feldspar"
[Wow, really nice. This is really something, could be really helpful]
So I tried it with some nearest leaf.
"Plant
Type/Name: Unknown
Composition: Unknown
Others: None"
[But this wasn't helpfull at all. I should probably study more about this world' nature. This reminds me. Status]

[Блин, I am really strong, Am I not? However, Hps and Sta doesn't climb accordingly to level, do they? If I remember correctly, at level 5 had I 180 Hp, now, at level 17 I've got 256. Damn, its weird to talk about your life when it's just a number. Or to be precise, it is really bad when is it a damned number. Those who played SAO haven't had it easy : )]
[Shapeshifting]
I cast shapeshifting on the stone. I wanted it ti form a blade. The stone somehow turned into liquid and then really formed into shape of a blade.
[Wow, that'z, fuckin, Coool!!]
The feeling of moving with the object is directly connected to my brain, so it feels like moving my own fingers.
The problem was..
*Crack*
When I tried the hardness of that blade, it crumbled like a piece of sand which was displayed to hot sun.
[Hm, the granitic stone isn't probably the best idea, because the bond between crystals are disrupted]
This gave me two ideas.
First. In liquid phase spin it around and create a monolitical substance which could be used like concrete.
Second. I could also turn those crystals into filaments, which would compose the whole thing.
Or. I could use both.
[But, why the fuck will I do something like this with a fucking stupid stone, when there could be many other material in this damned world
And yet, time to loot goblins, or, what remained from them]

Vast Asleep
The story of Kingard the Binder in the aftermath of Broken This short story is the epilogue of Broken, the second book of the Chronicles of Mother's Gate series. It’s a great follow-up to the novel, a bonus story that adds extra layers but is set apart from the full-length narrative. Vast Asleep follows the story of Kingard, who finds himself caught in a world called Mother's realm, bathed in glowing light but strangely stuck in place. He encounters his greatson Varyan there, and learns that his experiences are likely dreams. As he grows more accustomed to the loving realm around him, Kingard remembers fear and trepidation about the face of the world, and he loses contact with his companion. This story answers the question, Is Kingard really dead? with a tentative no, and new mysteries brewing. It also raises the question, What's happening while he's awake? and includes an excerpt from the sister story Ride Awake, about Kingard's situation with the Colkh'rak. Praise for Tales of the Known World Bookends: Loved it. The difference between the two stories is great! The difference between the epilogue and prologue is astounding. So much light and love in the first story. You feel safe reading it. Healing. The second, so much darkness, pain and despair. The choice of vocabulary is awesome and makes an impact. And this set of short stories ties the two books together so well. -- Dana V. of Texas ★★★★★

World War Academy [DROPPED]
EDIT: Hello, as you can tell this story is dropped. reason why this is the case is that I really didn't know where I was going to take this story and really, I wasn't satisfied with how I was writing here. However I am currently writing a completely new story and with it is that I am taking some aspects from here and using the ideas on my new story. New characters, new ideas, new plot, everything is completely new. So I hope that goes well and i'll leave this story up as reference for me in the future. Thank you Akani Kizuato. An 18 year old that recently started to live on his own to get away from life. With his sister and father dead from the wars as they fought in, he tried to continue life and tried not to let it get in his way. It may seem that way but with his whole life planned out, it may not seem to be. He had been rejected from all universities within the nation despite being top of his class, which is very unusual because even local colleges rejected him. It was as if he was banned to go to any of those places but uknowingly why. As he ranted, and relieved stress on the school rooftop, he had received an email from an anonymous source saying that he was accepted into some academy, which he had never heard of before. With events that lead up to his mysterious encounter with people who are there to take him, it may be quite a ride. Cover art made in Adobe Spark.
