Chapter 2
The voice was quite soft but had held some sort of power , a non human one
With it I was greeted by something unexpectedly familiar
There in front of me was a rectangular hologram
Name: David Greycastle
Level:2
Body:5
power:5
Mind:6
My body could not take any more surprises , I punches of the damned bastard
Started resurfacing.My hands itched from the pain
Well damn all has gone to hell,huh?
I shifted my gaze to the rest of the people and clicked
Well at least there were some who survived
Although I said such a thing I still couldn't believe that all the others were gone
“Hey Dave ,man you alright ? ” my desk mate Mat whispered ,not daring to make much noise
“yeah , give me a sec ” I struggled to stand, my legs were a bit dazed
As they saw me stand the others all came over huddling around
“ Man what the hell is going on ” one of the guys said as he helped the brunette up.
“ No idea but I think these are goblins ” a girl from the group replied pointing at one of the creatures.
“ So what do we do now,” a tall guy with a built body asked,this was one of my other friends,Stan.
Mat sent a glance at my direction and lifted his brows with a questioning look
“ Say something Dave,I think we should come up with a plan ” I panicked a bit not knowing what to say.
The others looked to my direction with expectant eyes
Well,well.....what should I say?I was lost in thought when I suddenly thought of something .
Yeah that's what we should do.I quickly formulated my plan as the others looked on
Well shouldn't keep them long
“what about this, we all know video games right ” the others nodded and I continued

“ well I think our situation is like that of a game thus let's do this as if we were playing a game ”
I stopped and looked around making sure everyone understood where I was going with this
“ The best thing we could right now is forge makeshift weapons for everyone to protect themselves ” as I concluded the other nodded in agreement
Matt's eyes shone a bit as he picked the leg of a broken chair and began to make a weapon.
The others following his example rushed, I guess the will to survive was strong
I stood looking at the situation and noticed somebody also standing gawking at the other
The brunette , Cassi Larson panicked as she didn't know what to do
I shook my head a bit and chuckled , I patted her on the back causing her to be more panicked
I think I made the situation worse , she looked at me with confusion causing me to laugh
“ let me help you ,” as I said that she nervously shook her head
With a lot of effort I made a somehow effective weapon and handed it to her.
I laughed again seeing her thanking me continuously
While the others were busy I should check this status screen thing
With just a thought the hologram ones again filled my vision
I was still a bit surprised but began checking my stats
Name: David Greycastle
Level:2
Body:5
power:5
Mind:6
Looking at it I noticed a plus sign on the attributes
I guess it must be SP which one gains after a LEVEL up
With a thought I increased the mind attribute by one, leaving me with 2 more
The body stats should be the ability of body to take hits and general endurance
the power stats on the other hand should be attacking power while mind should be ability

of on to focus in battle , although I was not completely sure that should be the general idea
I could not decide which one to invest in but with another quick glance I decided which it would be
Name: David Greycasle
Level:2
Body:5
power:5
Mind:9
With the change I felt as if the haze that covered my mind was lifted
My thoughts became clear and I felt like I could sense everything that was in my immediate sight
I couldn't help but breath out , the feeling was exhilirating
I might actually get addicted to it
I couldn't help but want to vanquish more of the damn creatures leveling up more
“ I think we should first clear out our immediate surrounding ” I said when I saw that everyone was ready.
There wasn't any sound of disagreement, the guys made some jokes to lighten the mood, which I think somehow worked.
When ever one was ready we moved out out of the classroom as quickly as we could
The six of us made a circle as we made our way down the hallway ,protecting every blind spot.
Before long we spotted 2 goblins walking up the stairs , we hid behind the wall as we waited
When I noticed the heavy steps getting closer I jumped out jabbing my stick out at one of them.
The others weren't slow, they worked together and killed the remaining goblin, the poor thing didn't even have a chance to retaliate before he was beaten to death.
They all lifted their hands with joy , Stan was the odd one as he stood with dump face.
The others couldn't figure it out but I could guess
“ level up huh ? I asked ” he quietly shook his head in confirmation
It took sometime to explain to the others before starting our hunt again .
It didn't take long before everyone levelled up , I myself also gained another 2 levels.
I was a bit annoyed at the rate of leveling up , as I had to kill double the amount.
Everyone was in high spirits as rushed to meet more goblins , they adaptedabit fast!
We slowly made our way , finally we discovered something different .
There was a half a dozen goblins banging on the library doors, behind the door screams of fear were heard.
We all knew what was happening.So there was other survivors
Everyone was overjoyed ,wanting to rush at any time.
I shook my head, although we had equal amounts of persons we would obviously be in the disadvantage
I made up my mind and rushed at the goblins attracting their attention
I tried my best to doge their attack sometimes returning with my own attacks.
The others caught on and ambushed the goblins from behind
With their attention divided I sent three goblins to hell with the help of my trusty hockey stick.
I checked if there was anymore danger and collapsed when I saw that it was safe
The others ran over ,“ Hey man what The hell you should be more carefull!” I could hear Matt shouting in my ear.
I was bit exhausted and could only reply with a silent nodd.
The others ran over to the library door and knocked loudly
The others were a bit vigilant asking unnecessary questions but finally opened the door
What met them outside was the murderous atmosphere with bodies of goblins everywhere
The survivors who came out to check out the situation were quite shocked
The way they looked at Dave and the others was filled with fear and respect.
They couldnt believe that students just like them could have done such a thing.

A Primeval Future
Follow the story of a modern caveman as he learns to survive, thrive, and shape his nascent civilization in a world yet untouched by man. Expect a focus on the nitty-gritty of primitive living, especially early on. I plan for this to eventually progressing to the settlement management and politics stage as people gravitate towards the one guy who looks like he knows what he's doing, but this will likely take some time. Despite the occasional system elements, skilling and levels will not be a part of this story. No shortcuts. There will be violence and there will be sexuality but there will be no sexual violence. I hate reading that crap and I hate writing it even more. This is my first serious foray into writing. I plan to put out at least 1 chapter a week, more when I can. Constructive criticism is very much welcomed as are ideas and suggestions! Cover image credit: "Mesolithic camp site" by Wessex Archaeology is licensed with CC BY-NC 2.0.

Age of Regression
[Author's Thoughts] Dropped, obviously. Still, it's my first attempt at a novel and I do love what I did with it. Big step towards learning. Far in the past, there was a civilization much more advanced than the one of modern times. Evidence of that time remains, but it is all but shrouded in mystery as there remains no way to decipher it. Currently, normal individuals wage war with guns and smaller machinery, but those who can wield a higher power vary in their abilities. Scales, born upon humans, are a mystery in their origins but are the source of their abilities and their way towards advancement. Although normally powerless, humans have adapted to the scales and thus can connect with the power of the universe, much like the other races that inhabit its various corners. In one of these corners, there exists a human settlement where Lancing follows his father's footsteps to begin his own ascent to power. However, he finds he is far different from his gifted father, whose scales below his eyes were among the purest ever seen, reaching gem-like quality. Far from perfect, Lancing shows no desire to give up and ceaselessly moves forward to reach the peak of the universe. However, he begins to notice that the mysteries of the universe slowly begin to unravel in front of his eyes. To reach the heavens, Lancing must carve his own path.
