[Quest Alert]
Hmm, my first mission.
[Demon Hunter]
-Description: Kill 100 Demons.
-Quantity: 000/100.
-Reward: 100,000 Gold, 1,000 Exp, "Eye of God" skill
Hey hey isn't that too much system?
There are 100 demons.
[Not]
I grumble a little.
"Alright, let's get started"
I stare at the demon in front of me, who so far hasn't taken a step.
[Name: Demon Soldier]
[Level: 16]
[Hp: 1,600]
[Mp: 300]
I raise an eyebrow, I didn't know I could see it.
But the most worrying thing is its level.
He's much bigger than mine, too bad I can't see his attributes.
Looking forward I just see that the demon has disappeared.
Widening my eyes I jump to the side to dodge the demon's blow that with its claws hit the ground piercing it as if it were paper, and the moment it hits the ground flames emerge from its hands in the spot hit.
Hey! If I got hit by that I would die! I only escaped due to my reflexes.
Quickly I open the [Gate of Babylon] behind me, which comes through three golden ripples, from the left ripple comes a long-bladed medieval sword, from the middle ripple comes a black magic staff with golden outlines, and from the last ripple a spear with a silver blade and golden length appears.
This wasn't my first time using the [Gate of Babylon], after all I trained a bit with it while I was still in the bedroom.
Using [Gate of Babylon] is interesting so to speak, when I first activated it I felt like activating it and controlling it like I've been doing it my whole life.
Maybe it's because of the memories of the original Gilgamesh, or because the system imprinted it on my mind, I wasn't sure, but I also didn't compare myself to the original Gilgamesh in using it.

I first had the limitation of only being able to open a maximum of seven gates, not only for my magical power, but also for my concentration, for the original Gilgamesh to open and control the [Gate of Babylon] was as simple as breathing.
And also concentration is important, without it I can end up summoning something random, if I want a specific weapon, I need to know about it.
Apart from that, it is quite simple to control the [Babylonian Portal].
I focus and prepare the magic staff that had come out of a portal.
One thing I noticed about the magic staffs is that they already have the spells inside them, I just have to activate them and keep the [Gate of Babylon] open to use them.
Sending some magic power to the staff that lights up in golden energy before unleashing it against the demon.
The demon had not even noticed the energy that came to him, after all he was still with his claws stuck in the stones, having no reaction time, the magic power hits the demon in full causing an explosion.
[-700 Hp]
I see the notification that my attack reduced the demon's health by 700 points.
After the dust caused by the explosion disappears I see the demon still stunned and quickly throw the sword in its direction.
The sword traveled at a great speed, piercing the stomach of the demon that screams in pain, not only for the damage, but also because this sword I fired was a holy sword.
[-800 Hp]
Before the demon even reacts I shoot the spear in his direction piercing his head.
The demon after receiving so many attacks dissipates into a blue dust, causing my weapons to fall to the ground, before returning to the [Gate of Babylon] dissipating into a golden dust.
[You killed a Middle Class Demon]

[You received 500 Exp]
I sigh a little.
For my first battle I think I went well.
I widen my eyes as I feel danger and jump to the right just in time to dodge a large spear that hit the ground.
Looking at the new attackers I notice their appearance.
The one who attacked me had a medium statue and what attracted the most attention was his head which was made of a goat's skull, and he wielded a large black spear that appeared to be made of stones.
The further back had an appearance identical to the one I had defeated, only being a little shorter and wielding a magic staff that had flames dancing around it.
Quickly the demon with the spear advanced on me.
I started to dodge skillfully, thanks to my great perception and senses.
I one of those dodge I see the demon with the staff throw a fireball at me, I jump to the side dodging it, but the demon with the spear was already in front of me with the spear he threw at me.
But before the spear reached I opened the [Gate of Babylon] taking a sword that defended the demon's attack, without wasting time I opened another portal below the demon's head where a sword pierced the demon's head.
[You killed a Middle Class Demon]
[You gained 500 Exp]
The demon with the staff prepares to cast another spell, but acting faster I open three more portals where three holy swords appear that fired at the demon that screamed in pain when it was hit in the legs and arms.
Without letting the demon recover I throw the sword I had used to defend the demon's attack with the spear and hang on its head.
[You killed a Middle Class Demon]
[You gained 500 Exp]
I sigh a little as I watch my Mp return.
[Wishes to loot]
[Yes] [No]
Hmmm that I didn't know.
Yes.
[Picking...]
[Congratulations the host has received two items and one skill]
[You have acquired "Demon Spear"]
[You have acquired "Magic Staff of the Fire Demon"]
[You have acquired the skill "Spear Mastery"]
[Items have been added from the "Gate of Babylon"]
I understand so I gained an ability and weapons from the Demons.
Can you give me a System Description?
[Yes, host]

Very interesting.
Deciding to give up this ability I summon from the [Gate of Babylon] a spear that had a golden shaft with white designs and its tip was silver, being slightly curved.
The moment I touched the spear I felt an intuition of how to use it, although I didn't quite master it, I could already know the basics of how to use it.
I brace myself with the spear as I decide to advance into the dungeon.
Maybe I should try to release my [Sacred Gear]?

Gaia Ark
Commander Coop, a four-armed, power-armored, super-soldier, undertakes a mission to assassinate the head of a religious cult bent on destroying the UPSF and everyone they protect. But no mission is ever that simple. GAIA ARK is an action adventure hero's journey featuring a cranky cyborg, vampiric sword, alien monsters, and enough self-discovery to provide a character arc. It's a little rough around the edges, a little crude. I started writing this story on November 2, 2018. This story is mid-composition. Please expect clunky prose, notes [in brackets], and incomplete...

Homeland
NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER -- In Cory Doctorow’s wildly successful Little Brother, young Marcus Yallow was arbitrarily detained and brutalized by the government in the wake of a terrorist attack on San Francisco—an experience that led him to become a leader of the whole movement of technologically clued-in teenagers, fighting back against the tyrannical security state.A few years later, California's economy collapses, but Marcus’s hacktivist past lands him a job as webmaster for a crusading politician who promises reform. Soon his former nemesis Masha emerges from the political underground to gift him with a thumbdrive containing a Wikileaks-style cable-dump of hard evidence of corporate and governmental perfidy. It’s incendiary stuff—and if Masha goes missing, Marcus is supposed to release it to the world. Then Marcus sees Masha being kidnapped by the same government agents who detained and tortured Marcus years earlier.Marcus can leak the archive Masha gave him—but he can’t admit to being the leaker, because that will cost his employer the election. He’s surrounded by friends who remember what he did a few years ago and regard him as a hacker hero. He can’t even attend a demonstration without being dragged onstage and handed a mike. He’s not at all sure that just dumping the archive onto the Internet, before he’s gone through its millions of words, is the right thing to do.Meanwhile, people are beginning to shadow him, people who look like they’re used to inflicting pain until they get the answers they want. Fast-moving, passionate, and as current as next week, Homeland is every bit the equal of Little Brother—a paean to activism, to courage, to the drive to make the world a better place.
