《Union of Worlds: Adventure in the Sky》Chapter 9 Not a Hero
Advertisement
Jhin came to himself and opened his eyes after falling unconscious at the end of the fight. The first thing he noticed was the pain in his ribs. He had already broken ribs during the saving of Sklavos but during the fight with Alexander, the same area was hit again. Then his shoulder which had been punctured by Alexander and the wounds reopened during the fight.
Generally, he was aching all over but after the pain, that seemed to be subsiding already Jhin remembered something. He opened his status.
*STATUS*
Level: 2
Name: Jhin
Class: Full Metal Fighter Lvl 2
Race: Metal Human
Vitality: 6/11
*ATTRIBUTES:
Strength: Great (8)
Agility: Good (6.5)
Toughness: Great (8.75)
Intelligence: Good (6.5)
Fortitude: Excellent (9.5)
Sense: Below Average (4.25)
* The Attribute scores shown are for the Human Form.*
His abilities seemed to have improved even more than the first time he got his class. In the System, the getting of a class probably had different importance to a level up and hence it gave a minor boost compared to the actual one. Not to mention that his class is different now. With the change in class the Attribute of Toughness, which had barely gone up the first time, increased by a whole point.
Jhin was now that much closer to having the, previously, perfect human body. Something told him though that 10 wouldn't be the max for Attributes any more.
He also noticed that his Class had something different to it. The color appeared to have changed into golden. It was bright and shining and if he looked closely it looked like flowing, liquid, gold.
Once Jhin Concentrated on the Status Page shuddered and disappeared while a new one appeared.
Class Rarity Rank Full Metal Fighter Legendary S
It appeared that from now on there would be another page in the whole System and that would be the Class ranking Page. He didn't know of any other Classes by now but the more he knew the more would enter his ranking board and the more he would understand about the Legendary Class he had gained.
On the other hand, Jhin still had no idea what a class offered, other than the ability to Level up. Maybe it offered other benefits and maybe it didn't. All Jhin knew was that he had a class that had changed just like his race. He was no longer a human. This left many questions, like his ability to procreate, but they would also have to be left unanswered for now. A trip to the other parts of the island seemed to be getting more and more necessary.
Jhin then broke out of his thoughts and looked around. He was in a big bedroom, in the palace. The room was tidy and clean, intricate sculpting on the walls, the roof, and the bed proved that this had been the room of someone important but that didn't really matter. Jhin took the heavy and expensive silky smooth sheets off himself and got off the bed. He noticed a change of clothes at the ready next to the bed but even at first glance, they looked terrible.

With a frown of his face, he went in front of the huge mirror in the room and took matters into his own hands. Using a pair of scissors he found hin cut up all the clothes he was gonna use while the other parts, like the disgusting hat, were thrown to the side. He simplified the clothes with his Metal transformation into consideration and thus he wore next to nothing. In his mind, if they were going to tear anyway he might as well make it as little as possible. Though he still ran into a problem
Thus when Jhin opened the double doors of his room he appeared with a look that made all the maids drop everything they were doing and stare in awe, though soon after they remembered what Sklavos, the New King had planned for him and shuddered in fear at what was coming. A few guards that had been stationed there sun off the moment the doors opened since they had been given the mission to notify Sklavos the minute Jhin woke up.
A maid walked up to Jhin and offered to guide him to where Sklavos was.
"Sure but before that, can you get me a vest like the one I am wearing... But not made from silk. In whatever color you can find." Jhin said and the maid immediately bowed down and accepted the request. Even if she wanted she couldn't possibly refuse the request of a personage such as Jhin.
A few minutes later Jhin came back out finally satisfied. A deep yellow, almost golden Vest on top, completely unbuttoned, and deep blue shorts on the bottom. He even wore cheap sandals and not shoes. His excuse to the maid, who seemed extremely flustered when he asked for those sandals, was that he simply needed them in order to be able to fight.
He didn't lie, he simply didn't know if he was going to fight again. He wasn't planning on picking fights randomly.
Eventually, the maid led him to a room in the front of the palace. Its whole purpose was for the King to meet with the people, from a safe distance. Though it hadn't been used for the past 10 years. The moment the doors to the room opened the sound of a huge crowd welcomed Jhin. They didn't see him yet or anything but the shouts of anticipation and the constant loud mumble of the peoples peaking reached his ears well and clear.
Jhin wasn't stupid and understood what was happening right away. He scanned the room and found an uncomfortable Talisa, fully dressed in pompous and heavy clothing, a serious but still uncomfortable Shaq, as well as a surprised and angry Sklavos.

"What happened to the clothing I had prepared?!" He got up from his sit ad looked at the maid with a glare, but then he understood that everything was Jhin's own doing and glared at him. "Did you not see the letter, asking you to wear that set of clothes?"
"I Did! Of course, I did!" Jhin answered with a smile while he nodded to the other two.
"Then WHAT IS THIS?" Sklavos yelled, disappearing at Jhin's outfit and overall appearance.
"Hear me out. Calm down... That clothing ...was utter Fucking Garbage! Ummm... I mean really stuffy." Jhin smiled innocently at Sklavos.
"... At least sit and hear me out."
Jhin sat next to Talisa and stopped joking around, his wounds still hurt though and all the moving was starting to be a pain, literally.
"Thank you. You three... Saved this Kingdom, saved the people, and accomplished my King's dying wish. I will never be able to repay this debt." Sklavos slammed and forehead on the floor, bowing deeply at Jhin, Talisa, and Shaq.
The three of them looked at each other and smiled. There was no need for any repaying to be done but they wouldn't mention it now, Sklavos had just shown his gratitude and they shouldn't take that away from him.
"With that done, I guess it is time for you to meet the crowd outside." Sklavos said as he got up, his forehead a bright red.
"Did you gather them here?" Jhin asked.
"Yes, the moment you left your room I was Informed and gathered the people."
All four of them got up and walked out of the room and to the Balcony. The air shuddered at the sheer volume of the cheers that broke out the moment the people laid their eyes on them. Sklavos forced Jhin to the forefront.
His legend had been the most widespread over the past three days he had been sleeping. The reason for that was because when the doors to the throne room burst open and Sklavos rushed in with a team of medics a bunch of people also entered the area and saw the state of the fight after everything.
They had seen both Shaq and Talisa, but what left the biggest impression was Jhin, who was standing unconscious with one foot on the throne and the god damned king's head through the back. A clenched fist and dripping blood bathed in the golden light of the sun was all the people could capture for the short moment they saw the scene and hence the thing that became the most idolized was Jhin, Sun Kissed Hero
The people changed their chants from 'long live the King' to 'Let the Hero speak' very soon and the whole square echoed that sentiment.
Jhin walked forward after glancing at the fidgeting Talisa and put one arm up. Dead silence.
"I appreciate the Gratitude. It truly is more than I deserve. But I need to inform you of something. I did what I did for only two reasons. The way the King reacted to the situation angered me and more importantly, I wanted to help my friend, Talisa. Nothing more Nothing less! I am no Hero. If anyone here is a here then that would be your new King. Sklavos!" Jhin shouted out and turned around to leave without looking back.
His clothes had made a weird impression on the ground when he first stepped up, some even immediately changed their tune from supporters to critics but in the end, Jhin's Honesty changed that yet again.
Everyone in the crowd clapped and cheered for the man, they were going through dark times and some honesty didn't hurt them at all. Instead, it brought a smile to their faces.
Jhin wasn't solemn when he turned around and instead flashed the brightest smile of the day and asked Sklavos.
"How much food is there gonna be in tonight's celebration?"
"As much as you want, Jhin." Sklavos answered back and let Jhin pass through. He bade goodbye to his people and left the Balcony soon after the other three had.
"By the way, Sklavos, What about your Heir... You don't have children do you?" Jhin asked a few minutes later when Talisa and Shaq had gone away to change into more wearable clothes. Jhin regretted not looking at the two of them more with those clothes on, they were both a treat to the eye. Shaq looked dignified and handsome while Talisa looked valiant and Beautiful. Not that much had changed about their demeanor though, they were always like that.
"Yeah, about that... The people of this country will be able to choose their own King from now on." Sklavos said.

The Magitons
Book 3 of the Universe Series This novel continues the adventure from the previous novel, Ocean of Dreams. Each novel is meant to stand alone. Widhbo ( pronounced "wee bow") is a MC who will be in each of the six novels in the main series. The starship Sora had been hurtling through space using its FTL propulsion system toward the Dezba star system for over a decade since leaving the planet Beldora of the Hellsaxe system. The Sora had crash landed on Beldora over a century earlier carrying a couple of aliens from another dimension. The ship came from the Borrugal Realm, a band world associated with what was known as the Tor Galaxy, what we call the Milky Way. Human life on Beldora was never the same. Under the influence of the alien known as Widhbo, Beldora was catapulted from the steam age to the space age. The majority of the scientific advances on Beldora were attributed to the leadership of a brilliant man, Jejliard Castonea, who was secretly manipulated by the alien, Widhbo. When rapid advances in technology inadvertently led to a nuclear war, Jejliard decided to evacuate his family, friends and co-workers on the Sora. The plan was to find a new habitable planet and rebuild civilization until they could safely return home. Much to his despair, Jejliard’s family and friends opted to stay on Beldora to ride out the war underground. Even the other alien, Gengor, stayed behind. Borrowing technology stored in the archives of the Sora, Widhbo managed to transfer the personalities of those staying on the planet into digital storage units known as magitons which could survive indefinitely in cold, sterile space. Living crew members who elected to stay on board the Sora were also uploaded to ensure immortality for everyone in case their life support systems failed en route. Widhbo sought to design a cyber paradise for everyone inside their virtual worlds, but things never go as planned where Widhbo is concerned.
