Lord and behold the old man who opens the door. Elder Jessie opens the door in a light blue shirt with yellow palm trees and wearing bright blue shorts. This old black man, I have never seen without his black cloak, is now looking like he is going to the beach. Looking at him now. He doesn’t look like the menacing old man; he is used to looking. The moment Elder Jessie sees me, his eyes shrink. He goes from looking happy, to being piss off. He glares at me and asks, “What do you want, boy?” Looking the elder out of uniform puts a smirk on my face. I quickly change my expression, but Elder Jessie sees it. He slams the door in my face and yells though the door. “Sit tight, boy!” This is the funniest thing that has ever happened. I wish I brought my phone and was recording this. I will tell Erica what is happening. With this information, I can get her to owe me a favor. I had to wait a few minutes before Elder Jessie came back. He opens the door with his cloak on looking like he wants to kill me. He stares at me hard before asking once again, “What do you want, boy!? Coming here it better be important or else.” I sigh, I didn’t want to deal with this crap. Waking up getting beat up by a spider, all of my classmates are joking around and not training, but the worst thing I will ask him for help. I wish Elder Kyle was here instead. Well, let’s get this over with. “Sir, I need the elders help in controlling the school. The kids have to refuse to keep training and have been playing around. They don’t see the urgency of our situation.” The elder laughs. “Even after your little display, you can’t get children to follow you. When I was your age, the school bowed down to my will. I didn’t need to fight the entire school. The children at the school were just scared of my name. And I didn’t have half of your strength. This is too funny. I bet it was because of how your adopted parents raise you.” That is when Elder Kyle shows up at the door. He was also out of uniform wearing a wife beater and a pair of jeans. Elder Jessie knows how to push my buttons, and if it wasn’t for Elder Kyle showing up, I might have exploded. Before I could answer Elder Jessie points to me and answer. “The brat needs our help to get these children in line. Isn’t it funny? We didn’t have this problem at his age.” Elder Kyle sighs and pats me on top of the head and says, “You had it rough, huh. It is ok we are here to help anyway we can.” Elder Kyle walks up to Elder Jessie and whispers something in his ear. This cause Elder Jessie to smile. The Elder looks at me and says, "Your adopted parents will make a deal with the fairy users. They will attempt a deal with the people who killed your parents and try to kill you. How does this make you feel? The elders here wants them under our foot how about you?” I was taken back by this information. What should I do? The spider on top of my head drop to my eyes and says, “Sounds like good people. You guys have been the aggressors this whole time. They couldn’t let someone like you being born. Most of them are already slaves and now you come along. A person strong enough to destroy the entire rebellion.” Stupid spider why should I care about that. It was my life that they destroyed. They are savages. Not only did they kill themselves but they also killed other people and tried to kill a baby. This shouldn’t go unpunished I need to know who my parents want to negotiate with these monsters. I look at the elder and say, “I don’t agree with my parents. But I have to say this Elder Jessie, they were the ones who took care of my. Stop trying to disrespect them. They are way better Jeonhlyeong than you will ever be. Wait, I think I would put you lower than the fairy users. At least they fight for what they think is right. All you do is hide out here waiting for me to do your dirty work for you.” He picks me up and throws me against the wall. “Boy! Do I have to remind you I was the one who saved your life? Not only that, but for 8 years of your bratty life. I was the one who raised you. Yet, you give me that rebellious look in your eye. If you would have to listen to me and carry my name, you wouldn’t be here begging for help. These children would bow at your feet instead you want to take after that stupid family. Instead of using their gifts to become powerful, they rather help people. They aren’t warriors and look at you now. Look at the girl that is being raised beside you. Both of you are the strongest children in the history of this school, maybe the history of the Jeonhlyeong. Yet, one runs away from power and the other doesn’t know how properly to use it. I blame your stupid adopted parents. I shouldn’t have left you out of my sight. I thought being raised by someone else beside me that didn’t have the hatred of our enemies. Would have you running back to my arms but no look at you. You will defend the people who want to negotiate with your parents' murders. You are nothing but a weak brat. You are soft like nothing I have seen before. Let me tell you a little secret boy. The reason no one is doing what you ask is because they can feel your emotions. You are a kind young boy. Revenge, I doubt you have it in you. I should send you home right now. To those peace loves where you belong.” The world around me spins. I am nice? I don’t have revenge boiling inside of me? I will show him. I can hear Elder Kyle running towards me and Elder Jessie backs up with a grim look on his face. If they think I am soft, I will show them. This is the power I have been developing for years. I will kill Elder Jessie here and now. That will show everyone in this school who is the boss. Wait me being soft doesn’t matter. He dared to dog my parents. No, this is his final time. This is his final breath. He would never dare to say those words again. Noone talks bad about my parents and live. Just as I was about to unleash my power, the world turns dark.

The Voice of the World
Jason Elric used to be an ordinary college student living in the heart of San Francisco. He had a part time job, he played online games with friends he got along moderately well with, and he earned reasonably good grades. The worst he really had to worry about in life was turning in his coursework on time and not being late to class. Now, though? Now fighting for his life and running from a horde of giant frogs that want to make him their next meal is just another Tuesday. Thanks to a summoning ritual gone terribly right, Jason has found himself trapped in a world eerily similar to the role playing games games he used to play for fun. Unfortunately for the now ex-college student, everything happening around him is terrifyingly real and if he wants to survive, he’ll have to figure out how to exploit the system for his benefit before it’s too late. The Voice of the World is the first part of what is planned to be a multi-book, Isekai LitRPG story with crafting elements, set in the fantasy world known as Verdania. This is my first time posting online for public consumption, so bear with me as I work to find a style that people like. While I may occasionally write scenes that may deal with heavy concepts, expect this story to be primarily light hearted high fantasy. There will be a lot of common fantasy tropes involved, as this story got its start as a simple practice exercise, rather than any plan to actually post it. However, it’s grown on me, so I felt it’s worth sharing after all. Thus, if you’re looking for more serious/original/unusual stories, you might want to look elsewhere. For the rest of you, feel free to leave suggestions, as well as to point out grammar and spelling mistakes; I’ll do my best to make edits to correct them. I do my own editing currently, and it’s easy to miss things when you know what’s supposed to be there, so such call outs are highly encouraged. Content TLDR: No harems, probably no romance (unless it makes sense for the story later on) (it did, eventually), definitely no sex (keeping this PG-13 or close to it), limited profanity. Does/Will contain mixes of magic and technology (think Warhammer, Final Fantasy); copious amounts of blue tables; race, gender, and sexual equality concepts; crafting sequences; and (slightly, but not overbearingly) strong protagonists. If you don’t like these things, go elsewhere instead of downvoting people for content instead of writing quality. Update Time currently varies, due to personal injury, but the goal is 1/week on Wednesdays, with a possible smaller chapter on weekends if time/health permits.
