"Insert spell C into slot J? But slot J already was filled?"
"You must have done it wrong. Here, give me that."
"No! Look, see, it's here, page 18, 'insert bracket V into slot J'. I know what I'm doing!"
"Then the spell must go over the bracket."
"I don't think so..."
"Careful, you'll break it!"
"Well, how else am I supposed to insert the spell?"
"Not like that! Here, let me--"
"No! I can do this myself. Shoo."
"Are you sure that's the right spell? This one looks more the right shape."
"It says C, right on it. See? C! Right here."
"Okay, okay, I get it, carry on."
"Thank you."
"..."
"Don't say a word."
"I wasn't going to."
"Who made this junk anyway?"
"I'm sure spell C wasn't important. Try this one."
"... Fine, give it here."
"See? Snaps right in. I think they were just mislabeled."
"Now, insert spell D into hinge H. Do you have spell D?"
"Uhh, I think it rolled over under the sofa. Hang on... yup, here it is."
"Thanks. Into the hinge you go..."
"Woah."
"Guess that does it. Looks like spell C was an extra piece anyway."
"It looks like a painting made of jello. Can I--"
"No! Don't poke it, we haven't run through the safety protocols yet!"
"But it looks like it'll jiggle. I want to see if it'll jiggle."
"You are not prodding my brand new, untested, extradimensional portal, just to see if it jiggles like jello!"
"Come on... what could it hurt?"
"Did you entirely skip the warning pages? What if you end up stuck in the body of a fish or something!"

"Cool!"
"No, not 'cool', and-- hey! I said no touchy!"
"Pleaaaase?"
"We are going to follow the directions and run the safety test first. Can you at least restrain your curiosity for ten minutes?"
"You said the wardrobe assembly would take an hour. It's been three days."
"This time will be quicker. It's only two pages, see?"
"Hmmm, looks like step 3 is 'wait for 1000 hours to ensure the connection is stable.'"
"Give me that!"
"You mean you didn't memorize it already?"
"Shush, you. Huh. Yeah, it says a thousand hours. Forget that."
"I thought you wanted to do everything by the book?"
"If it wouldn't take forever. Come on, let's see if this thing jiggles."
"And you won't mind if we end up as fish?"
"Keyword here: 'we'."
"Aw, so you do care."
"Shush. Let's go be fish in a fantasy world."
"I thought you'd never ask."

My class [Death Knight] is just barely legal...
Ever since meeting his uncle, Arthur has pushed himself daily to achieve an arbitrary goal. He trained like nobody else did, longer than anybody else could. He neglected his personal relationships to pursue something he didn't even understand, in hindsight. When the time came for his class awakening ritual, he was ready. He was ready to receive a powerful starting class and to break free from his boring lifestyle. Well, you know what they say, "Be careful what you wish for, lest your wish be granted." Arthur was assigned the death knight class, which is just barely, technically, maybe legal. With it, he learns about what drove him to such simple minded ambition in the first place: his affinity. Now, he's faced with a dilemma: will he embrace it, or reject it? 'My class [Death Knight] is just barely legal' is a laid back story with occasional tension, that describes Arthur, a young man, exploring the world, the system and his own mental health as he pursues his ambitions. This story is the first serious fiction I ever wrote, so while criticism is definitely welcomed, keep it polite. I'm going to rewrite the first few chapters at some point, since they're not as good as my later ones, but I'm focusing on my current chapters first. I don't have time to do both yet, since I'm also in the middle of my exams. What to expect from this story: -Litrpg elements -A chaotic good aligned protagonist (that starts off as a neutral good protagonist) -(Hopefully) interesting characters. What not to expect from this story: -Grimdark elements -Harem -An enslaved protagonist. (I mention this due to the background of the mc's class) Release schedule: 1 chapter every other day, 2pm European time (14:00) Join the discord here: https://discord.gg/YHZFB4HMHD
