"This is too fast. I thought it was just a joke that crazy girl played on me," he muttered.
[*Teacher is encouraged to attend the event. The backing of the Chen Family could help him to stand up to the Moon Family*]
Zack paced the street as he read. Sometimes he stumbled or bumped into someone.
Lifting his face, he put his right hand on his neck and said. "If you're going out, get out now. You're making me tired."
Many people walking by looked at him strangely, and even when he said this, no one appeared.
His feeling was still lingering, so he decided to get rid of whatever it was soon.
He activated his ability and moved at high speeds through the crowd.
After moving for a while, changing routes, he lost the feeling he had, so he put on his mask and looked for a secluded place where he changed his clothes.
He had his identity as Red Devil again. He walked out of the place where he was and looked for a way to get to land.
He went to the central area and asked for directions. This place had teleporters, so he went to the transporter connected to the earth, and after paying, he went out through it.
The environment suddenly started to change, and he felt his body being sucked in as he appeared in another place.
He looked around and could see many humans and one or two other races. The atmosphere felt very comforting.
For some reason, I love the air of the earth again. Unlike previous generations, the air was now much fresher and more pleasant, and free of pollution after the trees' evolution.
'Home, sweet home,' He thought.
He moved through the teleport station and looked for a nearby phone store. He bought a modern phone. After all, money was not an issue these days.

He connected his phone to the internet network and searched for information related to the Chen family.
He was able to find their location and information that would help him with his problem with the Moons.
The Chens were on the other side of the continent, still called Asia. They controlled the entire Asian continent while the Moon controlled the territory of the continent he currently lived on.
The other parts were distributed among the other 3 families. He logged out of the internet connection and called for a cab.
He listened to music on his phone while he looked at the city and remembered some bitter things.
He remembered his years in this city, how he moved away from his family, plus the hardships it caused him. Still, this was the city where everything changed equally.
He deactivated the cab's power window and let the wind hit his mask.
He took off the hood of his coat, and his hair began to flutter in the wind. After eating so many cores, his hair had grown too. It now reached his shoulders.
The cab driver had seen what this one did in the rearview mirror. Ignoring what happened, he drove on until he reached the city's transportation hub.
He bought a ticket to the Star mainland and waited his turn to board a train and boarded. These trains moved through vacuum tubes, making them travel at a speed that a typical airplane cannot reach.
It only took 15 minutes to go from one end of the supercontinent to the other. The things he encountered this time were very different from the other cities. You could tell that a great job was done in maintaining this city.
Its structures don't look very modern, but that was only at a glance. Cherry trees and people wearing kimonos were seen walking everywhere.
Even foreign races were wearing this style of clothing in this place. He walks still dazzled by the streets and the atmosphere they gave him.
'I am in Tihuan state, now I have to head to Chen state,' he thought.
He took another cab and marched towards Chen city. He could notice that although all civilizations use the universal language, you could hear people speaking their ancestral language and exploit writing in this continent.

The trip was very relaxed, with Lofi music playing in the cab, which made him feel good.
Zack fell asleep without realizing it, and after a while, he heard something.
"Sir, we have arrived at the location."
Opening his eyes, he found himself in a hotel with old Japanese style. Paying for the cab, he got out of the vehicle and entered the place. He booked one of the most luxurious rooms on the site, and after reaching his room, he removed his mask.
He continued to take off all his clothes and walked towards the bathroom, passing a mirror. But soon, he stopped and looked in the mirror.
"Is this me?"
His body had become more defined and muscular. He had spent his days so busy that he didn't even notice when something changed in his body.
He did some poses like he was a bodybuilder, which immediately made him feel uncomfortable.
'What the hell was he doing?'
He walked into the bathroom and discovered a small pool gushing steam. He stepped into the water and felt his body gradually feel more energetic.
'This bath is imbued with some magical artifact, worthy of a first classroom.'
The bath lasted a long while. It was one day of relaxation and would be extended to two the next day. An hour later, he came out of the bath, and without getting dressed, only covered by a towel, he started to watch television.
So he spent his night and the next day came.
Zack was in a cab heading to the Chen residence. He took advantage of his time away and managed to remove his mask.
He had gone early to a clothing store and bought some pants and shoes for the occasion, plus he used his new creation.
[Sonorous Earrings] They allow the wearer to hear at a farther distance and use echolocation.
He also wore his Infernal T-shirt, which was black in color, but when imbued with magic, it turned red.
"We arrived, sir" the cab driver's face changed when he saw the place they arrived at.
"I think we have come to the wrong place, sir," he replied.
Zack opened the cab door and paid the cab driver. "No, you've come to the right place."
Two guards stood at the door and looked at Zack with fierce eyes. "You can't be here; leave before we take action."
Zack pulled out a letter which he passed to the guards. One of them grabbed the letter and, grinning, maliciously tore it up.
Despite the attitude, the guard had shown Zack was indifferent. The guard who destroyed the letter walked over and threw the pieces in his face.
"You're another one of those fans sending love letters to our lady, aren't you?"
Zack didn't answer and showed his right hand where he had a bracelet. The man looked at the hand, and after thorough observation, his face changed.
Leaning on the floor, he shouted. "I welcome you, sir; excuse my disrespect, sir!"
The cab driver, who had not yet left along with the other guard, stood dumbfounded. The other guard came over and looked at the arm as well. Upon looking at it properly, his attitude was the same as the other guard.
"Make way and stop the drama," he said.
Both guards hurriedly got up and opened the large gate to the residence.
Zack entered while the guards were still outside before he kept looking back and said. "Don't think I've forgotten what you did. I'll punish you later."
The guards were calm on the outside, but inside they felt great fear.
The words Zack gave were strong, but they were not backed up; he just said them to put them where they should be.
*** In a room inside the residence ***
A person watched through the window of a room as he smiled and said to himself. "He passed the test pretty well."

America in Another World
One day in 2019, the United States of America finds itself transported to a new world. What will happen if a modern superpower from Earth finds itself in a world with magic and technology ranging from the medieval era to World War 1? F-22 Raptors vs wyverns and biplanes. Arleigh Burke-class destroyers vs wooden ships, mage ships, and dreadnaughts. M4 carbines vs bow n’ arrows, staffs, and bolt-action rifles. Featuring aggressive expansionist empires and magical kingdoms, what will the United States do? I will do weekly updates every Sunday of chapters with about 1000-2000 words each. This is the first novel I have ever written and is meant to be a draft. The official one will come out sometime after I finish this.
8 454The Archaic Ring
An original story inspired by xianxia and western fantasy. At sixteen years old, Nolan spent most of his time skipping class and playing video games, though he'd been getting into more fights lately than he cared to admit. His once record-high academics were nearing the end of a gradual decline, a byproduct of a growing indifference that had begun to fester after his parents' divorce. All of his worries dissipate like smoke in the wind when he inexplicably wakes up in another world, only to be replaced by a wider spectrum of vexing problems. BOOK ONE NOW ON AMAZON!

8 245They Call Me Fionn
Faerie is real, but it's not the place of sunshine and buttercups. It's a place of madness, of homicidal Queens and Kings.

Things become a little unhinged when Cliodhna, the ancient Goddess of love escapes. She's looking for her eternal lover, Ciabhan, and for William Suntag this is not a good thing. As grade 12 student, William is just trying to survive. He soon finds himself stuck between the Goddess and her intended, and is abruptly transported into a bizarre world where he is strangely -- at home. There he finds out who he truly is, his family and his heritage and his purpose, which is to protect humanity from the impending madness that is trying to reclaim the world.
