《Who Cares!!?》Chapter 22
Advertisement
Alex launched himself towards Jason and threw a right hook. Jason only smiled at Alex’s attempt.
‘Hmph’
He stretched his palm out and moved to the side.
Alex punch landed on Jason’s palm from where Jason simply grabbed Alex’s wrist and turned it slightly using Alex’s momentum against himself.
Alex realized he was still mid-air, and he got knocked onto the ground. What was that? As soon as Alex got up, he bent his knees.
Alex tried to do a low kick to knock Jason down, but Jason simply jumped and kicked Alex in the chest, and Alex again got knocked to the ground.
’You are about 100 years too early to challenge someone from WS.’
Alex again got up.
--WS? What’s that? Never mind, okay, no heavy-slow moves, only light-fast moves.
Alex tried to remember everything he could from MMA fight videos.
He tried his best from punches to kicks, feints to locks, but nothing seemed to work. Alex couldn’t make a single hit on Jason, and for Jason, it seemed like he was doing some light exercise.
Jason’s fighting style was unique, it could counter each and every one of Alex’s attacks and still also deal a devastating blow.
An average person couldn’t even stand up after taking two of Jason’s hits, and every one of them was a clean, clear hit despite Alex’s speed and agility.
‘What’s up with that fighting style?’
’It is only MMA but on a whole different level. This fighting style was exclusively made for WS agents known as WS style.’
The fight was astonishingly one-sided.
After a complete beat down, Jason asked again.
‘Give Up?’
‘Not yet.’
Alex thought of what he could do, Jason was more of a superhuman than he was.
Alex held his arms out and again did a backflip, and this time jumped off the rooftop, this time leading it to a free fall.

The ground was 50 feet below, and Alex managed to land on his feet, but he heard his bones cracking. He sustained a shatter fracture.
--I didn’t think it would hurt this much.
Jason also jumped, but instead of doing a free fall, he pulled out a gun and fired a small anchor with a cable attached to it and began rappelling down.
It took 10 sec for Alex’s legs to heal, the same amount of time it took Jason to get down.
Alex started running, and Jason was still behind him. Alex ran towards the main roads and began running with the vehicles.
Alex dodged many cars and motorbikes as they were almost an inch away from hitting him through unbelievable maneuvers. He didn’t look back and kept running. Frankly, Alex was enjoying this.
He made his way into another alley.
‘Finally, lost h..... wait.’
Alex instinctively looked up, and Jason was there on top of a balcony.
‘How do you keep doing that?’
‘Trade secret, how did you survive 50 feet fall without sustaining any injury?’
‘Trade secret.’
--I have this one last chance.
On the other side of the alley was a heavily crowded street.
The reason Alex came here was because of the road at the end of the alley, if he could make it there, there was no way Jason could catch him there.
Jason realizing this pounced on Alex from above. Alex, reacting to Jason’s movements, sidestepped and grabbed Jason from the waist.
Alex jumped while grabbing Jason and did a horizontal 360° using the momentum to launch Jason in the air.
Alex then tried to gun it through the alley.
‘I have had enough of these games’
Jason was still in mid-air and finally decided to end it. He took out a gun, which was the same he used to repel down.

He was still in the air when he took aim, and even though he was upside down, shot a rather large bullet towards Alex.
Alex had almost made it out when the bullet turned into a net that completely covered him.
He was tangled in the net, which was being slowly reeled back.
‘Hey, kid! A little help.’
Alex casually asked a kid who was petrified from what he saw as Alex disappeared into the shadows.
Jason leisurely walked as the net brought his catch. Bending on his knees, he asked again with a smile.
‘Give up?’
‘Do I have another choice?’
‘Let us go then, we have a lot to discuss.’
Alex told Jason everything he knew about Jira. Jason also told Alex he was part of a secret organization, and his mission is to investigate Jira.
‘Also, I’m sorry I acted so rudely called you stuck-up, I just wanted to make sure you weren’t some wanna-be detective.’
‘It’s fine, not many would actually believe things that I have told you without hard evidence and proof.’
‘Also, I have a new nickname for you.’
‘And what that might be?’
Hearing this, Jason smiled, seeing this as a beginning of a mutual friendship.
‘BATMAN!!!’
Jason retorted.
‘What!!? I refuse’
‘Too late, Batman.’
‘I said, I REFUSE!!!’
Jason pointed the gun at Alex, ready to shoot without a single hesitation.
‘O-okay, okay, I got it. Point it down, you could hurt somebody with it.’

People waking up is a part of the usual normal life. An uncountable number of people waking up with fuzzy memories and selective amnesia, only to be greeted with a status screen congratulating them for being a participant of a game? The new normal. Uncertainty follows the realization as the world around them, while looking the same, melts together with memories of what was once called fantasy. New surroundings and blurred borders await as we follow a young man along his path of survival and growth. In this new world power is quantified and upgradeable, traits get objectified and give out boons, while feats, some bigger, some smaller get rewarded. So how hard could it be to procure enough food and water? Genre, tags and content warning are subject to change. They were selected preemptively to cover certain bases for future chapters. I do not have a script only a premise and general outline I will follow along as I write. As this is my first try at writing I'd be overjoyed to get any kind of feedback. Crossposted on QQ

Reincarnated As A Benevolent Tyrant
NOTICE: This story is under rewrite. New novel has been published. Search **RE: Tyranny** in Royalroad for the new novel.Link- Re: Tyranny Thank You! ------------------------ "Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory." What a brilliant line, isn't it? James was a boy who had nothing to worry about. A happy family, a nice childhood. What's more to ask? But one day, everything changed. He lost everything in the blink of an eye. The only thing left for him were the memories and dreams of the past. Trying to cope up with the loss, he cut all ties with the outside world and became a shut-in, having no one left to call his own or to rely upon. There was nothing left for him in this world, but still he lived and soon found a purpose in his life, which lead him to create something that could change the world.And on the very day when his dream project was about to come to the light, he lost his life, trying to save a little girl from an unfortunate accident. "Will I ever be remembered...? I wish... someone would." These were the last word James mumbled before his conscious faded into darkness. But his life didn't end there, as he is transmigrated into the body of an arrogant, worthless Duke's son in some unknown land with no memories about who is or any idea about where he is. In an era of political turmoil and civil strife, the Duke's son is forced to prove his worth for inheriting the title. Will he be able to accept the new reality and prove himself by leading this country into a prosperous future? Or will he cease to the pressure of his past and lose everything once more? Disclaimer: This is not a power-fantasy or a 'feel-good' story. If you feel a protagonist should never lack agency (especially in early story) or make compromises because of difficult circumstances, then this fiction is probably not for you. It is a story that delves deep into real world sociological/psychological subjects and explores many topics of gray morality. I wrote it because I like stories that make me think more about the world around us, not to detach myself from reality. Some aspects you can expect based on the tags include:- [Kingdom Building]: political drama, geopolitical/geoeconomic strategy- [Army Building]: massive battles featuring in-depth planning, combined arms, and operational logistics- [Identity Crisis]: someone translated into a whole different world having to rebuild their identity and life aims The story starts off slowly, more like a slice of life than action-adventure, but I guarantee you it will get there. For those who want to skip the slow part, start from Chapter - 35 (Beginning of The End) (The whole Disclaimer section is copied from Aorii as I am too busy writing the complete story.) And yes, just for General Knowledge, James will become OP throughout the story. He is not some legendary guy who will pull out Excalibur & conquer the entire world. Update Schedule - One chapter a day. This novel is also available on Scribble Hub. And again, I humbly thank you for reading it. I hope you stick throughout the journey.
