Chapter 10: Baku’s Challenge
(Setting: Crystal Kingdom: Main City- Main Street)
(Scene: The city is bustling with news from the Royal Center)
[Narrator]: The day is now February 5th...
*The boys walk down the main street headed for the High University. Along the way, they overhear the citizens talking amongst themselves. It is as active as ever and loud with chatter.
[Male Citizen]: Did you hear the news? There's been talk about how the Oracle reawakened a couple nights ago!
[Female Citizen]: Really!? Wow that's big! I wonder what's going to happen?
[City Officer]: Any idea how long until the big reveal?
[Patrol Knight]: I have a buddy that works in the Royal Center. He's been hearing rumors anywhere between the next 5 to 9 days.
[City Officer]: That soon, huh? Hopefully hell doesn't break loose. Hahaha!
[Barrtio]: What do you guys think these folks are talking about?
[Baku]: I Don't know. I Don't care. I just wanna see the Princess in her underwear.
[Finn]: *Nonchalantly* Yeah, it'll probably be something stupid anyways.
(Setting: Crystal Kingdom: High University- Main Hall)
(Scene: Baku, Barrtio, and Finn arrive at the High University)
*The boys appear in front of their lockers preparing for the day and their upcoming classes. The students were just as chatty as the folks in the city. Everybody must've had high energy today for some reason.
[Leonidas Quark]: Hey, Baku!
[Baku]: Oh, what's up, Leo? How you guys doin’ today?
[Barrtio and Finn]: Whattup, Geek Squuaad!?
[Leonidas Quark]: Baku, me and my friends present to you: all of your previously missed Algebra assignments that you can still get points for, as well as detailed and underlined notes, including flashcards, for all of your core classes!
[Baku, Barrtio, and Finn]: *Surprised* HOLY FREAKIN CRAP!?
[Baku]: *Still Shocked* Leo, why the hell did you do all of this!?

[Leonidas Quark]: I owed you one for helping me out a while ago, remember? Also, you’re my friend, right? That's what friends do!
[Baku]: *Still Shocked* I-I guess they do... Heck, I'm not complaining! Thanks, dude! You guys are heroes!
[Leonidas Quark]: It's not a problem, Baku! Just think of it as a perk of being friends with a guy as totally cool as me!
[Baku]: This is awesome! My grade in Algebra should totally increase after I hand these assignments in and study these notes!
*Baku continues to prepare for his day, which is going well so far, when suddenly Princess Savannah and her friends walk pass his locker and says…
[Princess Savannah]: *Smiling* I'll see you in Astronomy class today, Baku!
*Baku freezes in his tracks as a cold sweat washes is body like an arctic wave. His heart beating a million miles per second, getting completely flustered and red in the face over the fact that the Princess of all people actually just spoke his name. Barrtio, Finn, Leo and his geek squad's jaws drop in awe at what had just occurred.
[Baku]: *Heart beating* ....... D-D-D-Did she just…
[Barrtio and Finn]: *Frantically shouting* DUDE! WHY THE FUCK, DID THE MOST POPULAR GIRL IN THE KINGDOM JUST SAY HI TO YOU!?
[Baku]: *Freaking Out* I DON'T KNOW!? WHAT SHOULD I DO!?
[Barrtio]: BAKU! This is your chance! You gotta capitalize on this occurrence and bring it all the way to home base!
[Baku]: H-Home base!? What the hell does that even mean!?
[Finn]: Baku... If you fuck this up, you will be the biggest loser... You literally have the whole world in your hands!
[Baku]: Uhh... O-okay! I-I'll try to talk to her in my classes... and... uh... get to know her?
[Barrtio]: You need to do a lot more than, "Get to know her", you gotta ask her out on a date, dude!

[Baku]: *Embarrassed* A d-date!? Isn't that little extreme? B-Besides, I'm a stinkin’ peasant. She'd never think of going for a guy like me!
[Finn]: Baku, rewards were never given to those who wait and take no action! You gotta have initiative!
[Baku]: Initiative? What the crap...
[Barrtio]: Baku... Princess Savannah, the most popular girl in the entire kingdom, and the woman of your dreams, just put the ball in your court. You have to take a shot! What's the worst she'll say?
[Baku]: I could mess up badly and embarrass myself in front of all of her friends?
[Barrtio]: And the best that could happen is that she'll say, "Yes!" You got this, bro! Also, once you're in, you gotta put in a good name for me to Lady Akamiko!
[Baku]: I see now, that's why you want me to do this... So you can get a date with a hot chick, too, eh? Well... I guess I could give it a try. I do have Astronomy class with her today, so maybe I’ll try talking to her there... Also, I know you guys would troll me forever if I choke…
[Barrtio, Finn, and Leo]: YOU'RE DAMN RIGHT!!!

The End of Disappointment
What happens when the hero's journey ends with disappointment instead of happily ever after? Ghost. Butcher. Murderer. Some men attract names like flies, and Ryu Ishida unfortunately finds himself among their number. Once the son of a noble house, he knows firsthand what the quest for power in the world of the Rings can do to a man’s mind, yet he can only continue down the bloody path he started long ago, hoping that at its finish, he’ll find the end to his disappointment. Four hundred years after a portion of humanity was ripped from Earth and thrust into a world of magic, monsters, and swords, whatever cruel gods rule the Rings are stirring once more, and with them comes the chaos of progress. Monsters roam the land. Corruption breeds unchecked. Murderers slay their way to the heights of power. Ryu’s life could only be described as disappointing. Updates: 2-3 times a week. *Author Note: This story does not continue with the paint by the numbers Class LitRPG system for long, so while it technically is LitRPG, it is definitely on the less traditional side (or so I hope). Also, the cover art isn't mine.

Project G00
|Nanopunk |Crafting | Detailed Science and experiments | Inner thoughts | Bio-Robots | Evolution | Infodumps | Tell not Show | Insane to Sane | Slow and Detailed Pace | Puddle to Unknown | Artificial Intelligence | Trans-humanism | Bad Jokes | Moving 'Dungeon' Core | Hi! I am G00. I am a project made by some weirdo. Some may refer to me as the wobbly thing in the fridge or the slimy thing in the ceiling. Others might tell you about that sticky thing inside your nose. In the end, they called me the Seed of Life, yet didn’t tell me what I was supposed to become. Furthermore, it just happens that this stage was the most miserable place to reincarnate... Reincarnate as in… What the hell did I become?! (Whispers) You are a puddle. A puddle? (Whispers) Yes. C’mon little guy, say your lines! You’re live right now! Welcome to puddle-springs aka the afterlife of a puddle. CUT! Eh? Why?! No edition or photoshop needed?! We’re short on puddle-staff. The camera is broken, I am broken, and you are broken. Wait! How can a puddle be broken? You are not a puddle, you are frozen yogurt. NOOOOOOOOOO! Additional summary: Spoiler: Spoiler Humanity has finally made the second step towards space. Many developments were taking place at the time this happened. All of them accomplished thanks to nanotechnology. Inventions regarding Artificial Intelligence and nanorobotics created the opportunity, a way to terraform planets by sending nanorobots to space. Their orders? Colonizing and preparing the new worlds before humanity's arrival, aka terraforming. Meet G00, a weird agglomeration of nanomachines. A bit stupid, but it's not because he was like that. The little guy... 'He' is really broken. The hardest start of a story is when language is oddly misunderstood, when you know nothing of the place you just arrived; when your companion is a buggy system, and when you have to repair yourself with whatever trash you can scavenge from your surroundings. All of this while you fight your worst enemy: potatoes? What will you do in an unfamiliar circumstance where nothing is what it seems and where you won't even understand the boring ramblings of a confused main character? Well, patience will... probably have a reward? Additional tags and disclaimers: Read before starting the story: Harem: Not included for the moment, depends on characters added, votes by readers, and things that happen on the go. Magic: Far away chapters maybe... as part of high level or non-understandable things by science. Slice of life: Probably some parts will include it. Disclaimer #1: Crazy amount of content about high-tech info-dumps, slow pace, starts with biology and nanotechnology. Might have some weird jokes and puns. Game bugs are also possible. Disclaimer #2: No puddles were harmed during the making of this story. No character is real, no real puddle was used as part of the cast. Character is stupid at the start on purpose but he will get beta and beta. All written content follows a logical approach no matter how stupid it appears to be, maybe… Because it’s just a raccoon splashing some cotton-candy over a puddle after it was thrown. Yup, a bully raccoon with rabies or so it seems.
