Ooh!
Aah!
Ouch!
Inside the cottage, the sound of moans and pain reverberated. Alexander returned to his cottage after today's self torture and was trying to handle the pain with some hot water.
This pain is truly miserable! It's shameful enough to think that, I can't even run 300m!
It was already a quarter to nine in the morning. In 15 minutes he'll be receiving the mission. But there wasn't any time or energy left inside him to go to the cafeteria to eat breakfast.
Let's eat my favourite! Instant Cup noodles!
It was good enough that yesterday I bought 5 extras for a time like this! But I never thought that I would have to use these so soon.
Preparing and eating instant noodles took him 10 minutes, with that time gone, he was left with 5 more minutes before the mission announcements!
Since some food was inside his stomach, his body ache was also relaxed a bit. But he started to think about something!
I can't live with a body like this!
It's too weak to even live with!
I will have to enhance my body constitution! With exercise it's possible but it'll take too much time and pain!
In my last life, I heard a few Indian herbs and Chinese herbs were able to greatly strengthen the human body and change the body constitution! Moreover, with the intake of natural herbs, there aren't any side effects!
Ok! Today I'll try to read medicine books on the traditional medicine of Greeks, Chinese and Indians! These are some of the best medicines in the world.
With my knowledge of chemistry and medicine combined, I'll be able to make my body better!!
While he was thinking of ways to enhance his body, click on the wall had already stuck 9! And soon system prompts started to resound.

[Today's Mission: Gain knowledge in large quantity! ]
[ You have to read 100+ books on modern and traditional medicine. Your knowledge of traditional medicine should surpass any living being alive on this planet. Knowledge of modern medicine should at least cover all your coursework. ]
[ Time limit to complete this task is 1 week. ]
[ Reward: 5 Genetic Points Gain ]
[ Punishment for Failure: 10 Genetic Points will be Deducted ]
This mission is also good like the previous one. I'll study hard and try to create a method to strengthen my body.
Woah! 5 Genetic Points as a reward! My body will enhance! more chances to live!
But as he listened to the last prompt his eyes fell on the ground and rolled over!
Holy Sh*t! 10 points deduction! Why don't you kill me directly! I have 5 Gene Points now, if it deducts 10 then I'll be left with a -5 black hole.
No! I'll have to do this at any cost! Isn't this only 100 books, with my increased speed I can read 200 books in 7 days!
Let's not waste time and go to the library to fill my brain!
With that, Alexander woke up and packed his bag, took a bath to remove the dirt and sweat from the morning and went towards the library.
On his way to the library, he noticed that there were more people on the road than yesterday. He thought for a while and then understood the reason. Tomorrow the classes will start as usual after the holidays, thus these students must have returned from home.
But one this that he didn't understand was, why the hell are they looking at me? I already an introvert and them looking at me makes me think to kill myself.
But what Alexander forgot was, he was really attracting the attention of everyone by walking awkwardly. The soreness in his body from today's workout remained there and thus his walking posture changed!

Limitless Adaptation
Jamie, 19, was walking into the kitchen for dinner when he suddenly found himself walking down a street in another world, a world with a game system. There, he meets a half-dragon, half-human named Adam, who faces adversity in most places, because of his parentage, and not long after they meet, the two of them are forced to leave town, due to Adam's beast nature. In the world of Tielmar, there are species of all varieties, a Class exists for nearly everything, and Skills come in quite a few forms. Jamie starts off with a Skill called "Limitless Adaptation", which supposedly allows him to adapt to any need, but is it really as powerful as it sounds? And more importantly - can it help him survive in a world where his first friend is a reject in all communities? Will Jamie, Adam, and the other friends and teammates they make in their journey find peace, allies, and love? Or will they fall to the powerful Adventurers that soon begin to hunt their team, to claim the bounties on several of its members, a bounty Jamie himself quickly finds on his own head? All of Book 1 is now posted, and Limitless Adaptation is officially done with the decision to rewrite. Credits for the cover go to me. That duck decided it wanted to nest in the flowerpot in front of my bank, so I took a picture of it.

8 211Path of Righteousness
What do you desire? What are you afraid of? You run away from one, pursuing the other. Is that all you are? Conquer your fears. Dig to the bottom and confirm, what you really want... ...For you cannot escape suffering and death. You only have a little time. Use it wisely. Uru, a young boy with no talent for magic or fighting, sets out on a quest to become an avatar of order, the physical embodiment of righteousness, in a distant future, where control of origin energy allows people to defy physics and manipulate causality. Mocked by fate and broken by impossible dreams, all that's left is to stand in defiance to cruel existence. Because there is a Truth out there, somewhere. Singular, transcendent, eternal. What would you sacrifice for it? *** This is a fantastic sci-fi epic. It's going to blend both western and eastern traditional fantasy tropes – like might & magic and cultivation – with rational sci-fi grounded fully in reality, to produce a purely fictional fairy tale. I'd like to deliver something light-hearted and yet wholly serious. An uplifting adventure exploring the unfathomable reaches of humanity, free of indecency, with a healthy dose of humorous banter, legendary beings, and most importantly – lots of exciting, firework-filled mayhem! I've tried reading many web novels, but there's a fundamental problem with them – the eastern ones are annoyingly repetitive, superficial and morally destitute, while western ones are often dark, convoluted and profane. There's only so much one can do to filter out the bad and try to fill in the gaps with their own imagination. It's one thing to eat tasty fast food, but if it's moldy and filled with toxins, then it's not only poisonous, but also disgusting. The appreciation of beauty and higher values is disappearing at an alarming rate. Although there are throngs of talented people out there, none of them are creating what I want to witness – an inspiring battle against impossible odds, ending in absolute victory. A triumph of the spirit so overwhelming, it crushes the spectator into his seat and takes his breath away. I'm looking for a real paragon, so now I'd like to try conceiving one. *** The MC's name comes from Tolkien's Elven dictionary in Silmarillion, 'Uru' meaning 'Fire', and 'Dagnir an Uruloki' meaning 'Slayer of Dragons'. *** Note: I'm neither a native speaker, nor an aficionado of literature – I've never written anything before, and despite proficient English my literary prowess is abysmal. It therefore takes me a painful amount of effort to polish the chapters and bring them up to par. Last year I wrote and posted some on FictionPress, but I stopped since it wasn't going anywhere. The appalling amount of filth and mediocrity being peddled in all the media nowadays – a result of no conspiracy to manipulate the masses, but plain supply and demand – is no longer just the triumph of form over substance, but most worryingly corruption of the latter. Who wants to read about ideals anymore? And yet, masses flock together to gobble up perversion and depravity. That being said, I can't rule out pitiful exposure as the culprit to my failure, so I am now once again trying to increase it here, possibly for the last time. If there are still human beings present, hungry or in need of a detox after eating too much garbage, make yourselves heard, so I can see a reason to continue the story. Otherwise it's pointless – I'm not going to make fodder for the masses, and I'm most certainly not going to throw pearls before swine. I'll simply stop writing altogether.
