《I Was Monster Once, Now I Am Human》Student Council Of a High School In This Modern World
Advertisement
But there was still the question. Who is this, freaky looking guy??!
He leads me to another room on the same floor of the main building. In front of that Room was a sign hanging that read Student Council. The room itself was wider than the class I had seen, There was a sofa, tv, kitchen, dining table--- Is this a home? There was everything that one might need to stay comfortably.
In the room were 4 people, including me. A girl and three boys, The girl was lying comfortably on the sofa as if it was her home. She was also wearing a black suit. The other boy stood in the kitchen, making something?
" Guys, Albert is here-- Come over here. We have things to do" Said the person whom I have followed him here. The girl who was laying down on the sofa, she didn't have much to do- She opens her eyes, looks towards my general direction " Tch. " clicked her tongue and changed from lying position to sitting position on the sofa. Didn't say a single word.
She must have something against me-
The boy from the kitchen came outside, holding a glass of juice in his right hand and sat down on the sofa, alongside the girl and, rested his elbow on his knees. He took a sip of juice in a fashion similar to of a kid, who wouldn't let go even a single of the moment of enjoyment from the juice and then, He said. "He sure doesn't look like what I imagined him in my mind."
The girl who was accompanying him on the sofa- She shows sign of hostility towards me. Her eyes brows were stiff and her nose was twisting. She looks at the person who leads me here and says " Boss, are you sure that's him? He looks like a nerd to me."
" It is him, Albert Neslete. Even if he doesn't look like an heir of Neslete family, He is the heir. " The boy who leads me here answered to his friends and then, he looks at me and extends his hand--For handshake
" I am David, Student Council President." I took his hand. I know It is some sort of way to greet each other among humans. He then introduced others to me " Albert, The person who is holding a glass of juice is, Magnus and the girl is, Shera. They are also part of Student council " He said.
Student council... I know what that is. It is the form of a group or a party that works between students and teachers for the school. But what they want from me? I am no stupid. From what I've heard and seen so far, I can tell; They could be from said Kichiro family. I don't want to be rude to people whom I don't know and have no idea about so, I decided that it is in my best interest to be friendly towards them, for now.
"I am Albert Neslete- Heir of Neslete family. " I said in answer to their introduction even though there was no need for me to introduce myself but--- It is a good manner to introduce yourself or that is what I read.
"Yea, Everyone knows." He said and then, He points towards a chair with his hand " come on, take a sit. We need to talk and it is not going short." I sat down on the chair and rested a left leg on my right leg. I was wearing a black high school uniform and I wouldn't call it comfortable so, I undid my collar button of my shirt and said "What it is? It should be important for you to invite me here. "

This atmosphere reminded me of my past, where I attend a royal meeting of monster and sat on the throne. Though I was a king in my previous life, I never acted like one. For a monster like me, the most important was survival, not dignity.
"Of course, it is important. " David said. He looks me in my eyes unlike any other humans when he talks to me. For that, I can conclude that he is someone important person and one can not easily threaten him-- He could be the head of kichiro family. If that were the case, of course, he would act like this. " As you might have already guessed, we are from Kichiro family. " Well, that I did. He is indeed from Kichiro family but are you the head? The other two didn't interfere in our small talk until now; They don't hold a higher position than this person, David--- I see.
"Albert, Kichiro is the main family and yours, but a branch family. Though It is up to you to decide when you become the head of your family but until that time comes, I want you to act as a member of a branch family and join the Student Council as Vice President. " David said.
My reply was to his words "...Huh? " I still don't know much and he is throwing some sort of an offer to me-- " What ar... " I wanted to ask him what was he talking about but then, I remembered; Humans acts upon their greed. If you show them your weakness, They sure to take advantage of it. And this person, David- He set off all kind of alarms in my head. I still don't know much about this person and Am not aware of families and how they work so, " Give me some time to think. " What I need is time, I need time to learn the things that are beings kept in dark from me.
"Time...? That's what we don't have, Albert! Tomorrow, The head of Kichiro family will be here, In this school and before he comes, I need you to be a part of Student Council as he wishes you to be. " David said- He showed expression of a desperate person. As if he was an advisor of a fool, a king who hasn't seen outside world and acts like... Brat? Hehe, that reminds me of those filthy teachers who used to call me a brat. In any case, " That doesn't have anything to do with me. " I replied to David. And why does the head of Kichiro family wants me to be part of the student council, who is he?
David's friend was being silent, but then he, Magnus suddenly flipped and said in the rage "WHAT? It doesn't have anything do with you??! What are you even sayin' " David extends his left hand in front of Magnus' mouth and says " I see... " Magnus sits back down on the sofa and then David continues " So, that's what going on, uh? Albert, you still don't know where you stand in all of this and still unaware of your situation. You are like an animal from the Zoo, who has been kept in a cage and now suddenly, set free in this vast world. " David said-- David lefts sofa and stands up. He starts to approach me, slowly. " We are not your enemies, Albert so, Don't make us one. Student Council is absolute in this school, I am sure you were desperately trying to get out of that cage so, If you don't want to go back in that cage. " He stands in front of me and looks in my eyes while he says that, He looks down on me. " Do as I say or you will be back in that cage, I promise. As Student Council President and as a member of Kichiro family, I have enough influence in the school. I can kick you out, Believe me, I can. " David said, with enough confidence that he went so far as threaten me. I am sure, that's not an easy thing to do; I have been the target of those stares and fear of other humans since I stepped in this school. Everyone seems to have scared of me but these humans aren't. Geez, What I am gonna do with such an arrogant human-- I know, Humans are desperate beings but still, to threaten a... " *Sigh* " I stupidly gave him a chance to look down on me and now, he is threatening me to do something that I don't feel like doing-- but first of all, I don't like the way he is looking down on me. I have my pride to protect. I left my chair and stood up, I was standing in front of David. For unknown reasons, David reaches his back with his right hand as if he was trying to grab something on his back " Human, do you have any idea who are you talking to? " I said in a cold manner since I didn't want him to think of my words as a lowly play to simply intimidate him. " I know you very well, Albert. Heir of Neslete family and a genius among genius but how far you can climb? The world is harsh for a caged animal, I can make you disappear without a trace " David responded.

" Heir of Neslete family? No, you are talking to a monster, David. The monster you humans fear the most and the monster who can rip you apart in the blink of an eye. " With these words from me, He was stunned; Of course, He was. Claiming to be a monster is taboo among humans and the sign of evil. " You says some funny words, David; you can make me disappear? but monsters like me, I already live among the shadows. You can't make me disappear if you can't even see me." David suddenly pulls out the hand David kept behind his back. On his hand was a gun, the gun had a long and round barrel unlike any other I had seen before. The gun was all black and must be custom made; It was beautiful, to be honest. But the situation wasn't; He was pointing that gun at my forehead. With that gun pointed at me, He says " Living among the shadow... What are you, a moron? Who talks like that in this age and time. Don't you understand your situation, Stupid? Even if you are a monster, You'll drop dead if I pull the trigger this close to your head. This is not some sort of play. As the heir of Neslete family; You will be put in a situation where you will have no choice but dive in the gutter filled with shit and accept the fucking situation even---and if you said those kinds of words in that kind of situation, the next thing you will see will be the blood gushing out of your head, covering your eyes as it darkens the world around you while you lose your life. you will be dead. So, Just accept my offer and be happy that you are not in the middle of gunfights." David said, his eyes were filled with anger and the finger on the trigger was trembling, He wanted to shoot me that instant but he couldn't. I could feel his resistance. So much hatred towards me. He must think of me as some spoiled rich brat. He is a mistake though, I have put through far more situation he could imagine. To be forced to choose between the family that I adored so much or the fate of my whole kind that I swore to protect.
" Shoot me, David. Come on, Pull that trigger that you wish to do so much " I said.
The response from me was not David had anticipated. He must have thought, I was acting all tough since I am the heir of Neslete family and I would have been trained for such as this kind of situation but too bad for him, I was trained in a far harsh environment. I am not someone that you can break so easily, David. I am a monster. I weight far more than you can imagine, try harder.
When David hears me says that He removes his finger from the trigger. He becomes aware of that fact that I know; He cannot shoot me. He wants me alive, not dead. David points his gun down and looks away in distant " This is not over, Albert. The head of Kichiro family wants you and once he realizes, you are not willing to be part. He will come after you. You might call yourself a monster but in reality, Adger, Head of Kichiro family is the real monster. " David said.
" If that's the case, you should be excited, David. You'll get to see how two monsters fight each other in the battle. " With those words, I left the room. When I came outside of the room, I heard a bell ring and the hallway was suddenly filled with other students, some of them were Carrying their school bags and some were carrying guns on their sides. I came to realize, This is not the world that the god spoke of; This world might be far worse than my own previous world. Proving the god that no humans could be called innocent might be much easier than I thought.
This world is filled with malice
{ Student Council Room }
David was still standing where he once held Albert at gunpoint on the point-blank range even after Albert had already left the room " How did he Know?! " Spoke Magnus to David in anger. It should have been simple, Albert should have joined the Student council and everything should have ended easily like it does every time but it didn't this time, Magnus was furious because of that. David still standing there, He doesn't look back at Magnu or Shera. " It was hesitation, He sensed it. He knew I couldn't shoot him because of the orders I received from Adger. As for how did he knew, He saw my sligh hesitation to pull the gun on him; He should have gone through life-death situation but... " David replies to Magnus but stops in the middle of talking and starts to think For one to be this sharp at and observant, He should have gone through life-death situation multiple times but Albert, He is should've been staying at home all the time! after all, Kichiro family was after his life all this time. Since Albert's father knew that his son's life is in danger, He kept Albert--- While David was thinking all of that, Shera spoke " Isn't this exactly why, He wanted Albert to join? Albert had already shown us what he capable of without lifting his finger. " And to David, Her words made sense. But still, If Albert is like that; " If he refuses to join in front of Adger, Adger will shoot him. Albert still doesn't know, he able to join the school and able to walk free because Adger decided to not harm Albert, The heir of Neslete family. " said David. The situation was complicated to say least. The man who is caused all of this, He will be coming to the school tomorrow, The Head of Kichiro family, Adger Kichiro. And the fate of Albert Neslete, The monster will be decided.
" I hope, This ends well. I don't want to clean any dead bodies anymore " Said Magnus

The Dungeon Hive
One thing I noticed about most dungeon stories is that most races mistakenly believe that dungeons have a hive-mind and I go, “That make sense.” Considering the various powers and how big dungeons can get, wouldn’t it make more sense for them to have a hive-mind? So this is it; my take of the world’s first dungeon and the hive that controls it. Watch as it stumbles, fall, survive, strive and…procreate? Watch as it changed the world of Ioplon…for better and for worse. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- For edited version of the story, the full trilogy (Book_1: Fantasy Begins, Book_2: Dungeon Flames, Book_3: Spread of the Dungeons) are now available on Amazon. Please take a look, and leave a rating. Thanks

Core Defect
In the 264 years since the Great Singularity Wars, the world has been irrevocably changed. Technologies like nanobots and rogue artificial intelligences have caused the planet's wildlife to evolve in dangerous and powerful ways, pushing humanity to the verge of extinction. However, the remaining survivors are not without ways to fight back. Nanotech can enhance humans just as well as beasts, but perhaps most surprisingly, humanity has found an unexpected ally: a group of human-neutral AIs called Daemons. Val is a 22-year old woman striving to become a User: a nano-empowered human paired with a Daemon that serves as society's final and most powerful line of defense. When a critical issue in her nanosystem's core seemingly leaves her unable to serve as a User, she's given a difficult choice: give up on her dreams or accept a potentially unstable AI, Noir, as her Daemon partner. Val and Noir are stronger together than they are apart, but can they survive long enough to unlock their potential? Can they find a place among the other pairings like them, shunned by society but essential to civilization's survival? If Users are humanity's last line of defense, welcome to the sacrificial first line: the Defects. Updates are currently once a week, aiming for the weekend. Chapters usually 2k-3k in length.

Life, the struggle for existence
What would happen when man had to, once again, fight for its own right to live? Would the evolutionary counterparts of our ancestors manage to life through the struggle for survival? What would happen to society if a new reason for living came up, other than the enjoyment of the well-built environment? A reason that could either unite or destroy humanity.This is the struggle for their right of existence.As earth and its inhabitants are faced with the fear of unknown danger and the peril of monstrosities, some will falter, some will die and some will live on to tell the tales of those forgotten. As reality dictates, most will be part of the first two groups and only a small faction will be part of the latter. *This is my first attempt at writing fantasy, so I do hope you’ll enjoy it. The story is one of apocalyptic nature, with gigantic monsters, unfathomable powers and also a critial view on humanity and what it means to be human. I will definitely try to stay away from any tropes that are not neccesary to write fantasy, as I thoroughly despise non-creativity. There shall be no harems, no unrealistic behavior and absolutely no standard scene of dimwitted bandits that try to rob whatever similarly rock-brained princess they encounter. The main character is not black and white, because no human is completely good or completely evil. They’re human, not some idealistic concept of what one is supposed to be. Enjoy!Warning: Tagged 17+ for the occasional strong language and violence, some mild sexual content can occur in the distant future.
