《I Was Monster Once, Now I Am Human》A Monster Attends A High School In This Modern World (Part-1)

"Good morning, Master." are words that always wake me up from my dreams, in this world. When I open my eyes after hearing those words, I'd always see her face. She'd stand beside my bed, holding a teacup tray with her both hands and greets me again with a smile on her face.
"Good morning... Diana. " I'd squeeze my right eye while replying her and leaving the bed "Thanks for the tea."
Tea in this world is really wonderful.
While I took a sip of tea in this wonderful morning, after two and a half-hour of sleep "Master... Why don't you brush your teeth first?" is the question Diana asked me.
"takes another sip do my mouth smell foul?"
"No! it doesn't! " She replied in a panic
I am well aware that She doesn't have any intention of embarrassing me, is just she is being curious. Though I won't get embarrassed from something like this.
"takes another sip There isn't any particular reason behind me not brushing my teeth. "
" I see. In any case, I received a letter for you from high school. "
I know what this letter is about... I put aside my tea and " Can give you it to me? " she handed the letter to me. I opened the letter and there was it, What I was waiting for many years, A High School Life.
The contents of the letter were all over the place but the following were only lines that I care for
[ Dear, Alber Neslete
Blah blah blah
blah blah blah
You can no longer be a 'Private Student' Blah blah blah blah Now you are a 'Regular Student' blah blah blah
Blah blah Come to Entrance Cermony blah blah ]
Such were words written in the letter "Master, don't ' Blah blah blah' out loud " Said Diana while she was trying to best hold her laugh. I say you don't have to try so hard, Diana. " So, today is the entrance ceremony? " I said.
" Yes, according to the date written in the letter. Master, why don't you get ready fo... " Was Diana saying but she suddenly was interrupted by a loud voice, coming from downstairs.

" Albert! We will be late for the ceremony, Hurry up and get ready! " were words interrupted Diana.
"Mother... since when did she start to shout in the house like this? "
Diana doesn't say anything and giggles.
[1 Hour Later]
While I stood in front of the car which was about to take me to the school, I took a deep breath and started talking to myself " Deep breath-Phew Finally, My debut... This will be the first time I go out without a guardian. "
Diana is about my age and she is a private student so, She doesn't go to school and only participate in the exam. In any case, She is not coming with me.
I have a rough idea about how the entrance ceremony works
New students enter a hall
Sing a national anthem
Read the names of new students
A principal makes a speech
A representative for the new students take an oath
Sing a school song
and that's all this ceremony suppose to be.. at least I hope. I only read about them in books.
I opened the door of the car, all prepared and... "Mother... What are you doing? and On the driver sit!? " I found my mother in the car.
"uh? What do you think? I am coming with you, My dear. " She replied with a smirk on her face.
"No, You are not! " This supposed to be my day!
"But you suppose to bring your parents with you at your entrance ceremony, they wouldn't let you in if you don't bring me with you! " She said and I thought; Seriously? Is that how this works? I didn't know.
There was no way out of this so, I admitted defeat and the day that was supposed to be mine alone, isn't mine alone now. But I was really, really, thankful that my father headed to some sort of business trip today and it is only my mother accompanying me. That man, my annoying father is the most annoying.
"Yea, I understand. But can you actually drive, Mother?"
My mother isn't a normal lady, as you'd expect to know the fact she married my annoying father. She looks far younger then she actually is, she seems to be 20, 21 years old but she is actually around 30. She'd spent countless hours in her room, doing stuff to her skin that I cannot simply comprehend.

"Of course, I can drive! " she replied
"No! like with your sunglasses? "
" Awww, are you worried about that? You are so cu... "
"Don't you even dare, mother... "
" *sulk* Okay. "
well, In any case, I hoped for the best and entered the car.
While my mother drives to school---Words like cute and stuff really piss me for some reasons and I find them annoying, this also why I find my father annoying since he'd always use these kinds of words. I had only heard words like ugly, disgusting, from humans so, whenever I hear word 'cute' I feel like they are making fun of me.
"By the way, Albert, have you talked to your father lately? " Mother asked out of nowhere while she was driving.
"Na... He is annoying. He'd always stick to me like a baby and do... Indeed, He is annoying."
" I see, but I think he just wants to be closer to you. "
"One doesn't get closer by sticking themselves on to others, they just end up as nuisance"
"Hmm... " she remained silent after hearing my answer. Maybe, I went overboard with my words. I never had the intention to harm any humans and she is my mother, there is no way I could say anything that would end up making her upset.
"Mother, I'll talk to father when I get back. so, you don't need to worry about it." There is no harm talking to my father, he is, without a doubt, annoying but it's not like--- I cannot endure his annoyance; That's what I been doing since I was born in this world, in this family of mine.
" umu... " Was the answer I got from my mother. Yea, I went overboard there.
After a few minutes of silence between mother and her son, We arrived at the high school.
As we arrived, first my mother stepped out of the car herself and then opened the car door for me since I don't actually know; How you open the door of this kind of car. I stepped out of the car, and for the first time, I gazed upon the high school I was going to spend my whole year at. and I noticed something " Mother, Why is everyone staring at us? " I asked my mother, While I stood in surprise.
There were a lot of humans of my age, wearing a school uniform just like mine. Well, those are the students of the school so that was normal but why those students stopped what they were doing, to only stare at us?
It was not only students but their guardian who kept looking at us with a strange look in their eyes. What it is? envy, greed or anger?
But then, I looked at my mother when she didn't reply to my question and I noticed something; My mother, she stood tall on my right side, she was wearing a black suit, black sunglasses were covering her eyes and her long hairs tied on her back. There was not a piece of single jewelry on her, her neck was empty. I didn't actually notice it before since she has been in the car but now that I look at her below this sunlight, She is not the person I know and seen in my house.
She is totally different.
But that was not all.
For while she didn't speak and kept looking forward with her eyes, searching for something but then, she looks at me and finally replies " uh? Why do you ask? We are of family Neslete so, of course, everyone will be surprised to see us. "
When she turned around and look at me, I saw it-- I saw something really dangerous, on her right hip. So, I asked
"Mother... Why there is a handgun hanging on your hip? "
She stares at me for a few seconds and then bends her waist a little and while touching my head she says "well of course, because we are of Neslete family "
Should I accept this kind of answer from her? Is that alright?
What kind of family I have been into?!

Of Men and Dragons, Book 2
Jack, S'haar, and all their family are back. After crashing his ship on an underdeveloped world, Jack found friends and family among the terrifying cat-lizard natives of the world, but now mere survival is no longer enough. They must carve out a new home for themselves in the landscape of the now rapidly changing world. Raiders, politics, and even nature threaten their happiness and their lives while they struggle to deal with the nightmares and traumas of yesterday. They'll need to depend on each other more than ever if they hope for their new home to have any kind of future. In case you missed it, here's book one. ATTENTION: This is soft sci-fi rather than hard sci-fi, hence why I chose that tag. For those of you unfamiliar with the distinction, here's what Wikipedia had to say. 1. It explores the "soft" sciences, and especially the social sciences (for example, anthropology, sociology, or psychology), rather than engineering or the "hard" sciences (for example, physics, astronomy, or chemistry). 2. It is not scientifically accurate or plausible; the opposite of hard science fiction. Soft science fiction of either type is often more concerned with character and speculative societies, rather than speculative science or engineering. The term first appeared in the late 1970s and is attributed to Australian literary scholar Peter Nicholls.

Mr.Easy's adventure in One Piece
A self-insert story(as much logic as it can have or I can put in it), a little different than most, as the name says about his personality, he is easy-going (lazy). Lazy in a sense as he doesn't care most of the time what’s happening to the world. (NOTE: Mr. Easy (I) do not care much about going with the straw hats that much (well, you will see that in about a few chapters, but still this will revolve around them.) DON'T HOPE TOO MUCH ORIGINAL (ONE PIECE) STORYLINE FROM ME (just saying not shouting), because if you don't cause some changes then what’s the point in going in a fiction.
