Chapter 3
Jimmy Sr and the unknown assassin were moving at Mach ten (seven thousand six hundred and eighty miles per hour).
The two warriors were throwing the fiercest strikes, yet neither warrior was able to land a strike.
The killer spoke, "It is the first time that I had been forced to use ten percent of power. I will give you my name before you die by my hand."
Jimmy spoke, "Well go ahead!"
The killer spoke, "I am the Solanas' greatest assassin!"
Jimmy powered up as yelled out, "Quit bullshitting me and just die.
The weapon master moved at Mach fifteen.
Jimmy punched the assassin in the stomach as hard as he could.
The killer looks up at Jimmy with a wicked smile as if he didn’t feel the strike from the hero.
“My name is...”
Jimmy speed to full speed at high hypersonic speed.
The murderer was completely under the control of the weapon master, but Jimmy was still uneasy since this man was not being harmed in the least. He let the killer free from his strikes.
The murderer landed on his feet and dusted himself off like he was getting bored.
He spoke, "I will now use twenty percent of my power against you!"
The killer punched Jimmy cleanly in the jaw. But something strange happened.
The father was laughing after being hit at such intensity.
The assassin backs up a step by the sign of Jimmy's defensive powers.
The killer spoke, "Thirty percent!'
The unknown killer moved quicker than Mach thirty.
It was Jimmy Sr’s turn to be thrown around as if he was he was just a rag doll.
Jimmy spoke, "Is that all you got?"
The killer spoke, "Forty percent!"
The villain moved at Mach forty, yet Jimmy had no visible wound on his body.
“Fifty percent,” cried the bad man.
Jimmy was getting hit at Mach fifty. It should have rattled the killer's body apart.
The weapon master spoke, "This is half of your prowess, then give it all to me!"
The killer spoke, "Humph! I never thought that somebody from Lowrado would make me use
seventy percent! I can move at Mach one hundred, using my full ability!"
Jimmy spoke, "You're bluffing, fiend!"
The assassin forced the young master to dodge the strike, as he landed on the ground safely.
Jimmy Sr spoke, "You had made me all three of my fields of mastery! Prepare to die you son of a bitch!"
He enhanced his physical powers by using both his offensive and defensive ki. The ground had a major earthquake(seven points nine on the Richter scale)!

Back home at the village, the stone and wood building was starting to cave in under the earthquake's massive pressure. Everybody was unable to move to safety or even doing anything for that matter. All they can do was hope and pray that the impossible battle would soon stop. Both the kids and adults were crying and screaming out of fear.
#
Jimmy stood there in his Grey colored aura, as he stood in a crater that was over a mile in circumference. The power-up was not stopping as the earthquake was now at eight points nine on the Richter scale! It could be felt for almost four hundred miles in any direction!
Buildings were being destroyed throughout the area, as the land warped around them. Thousand of people in the area were already dead from being crushed by falling buildings or rifts in the ground.
Jimmy Sr didn’t like to use so much power, but he had no choice. The earthquake was at ten on the Richter scale! Tens of thousands of people have died already, yet it was lower than excepted due to the area being lowly populated with people. Every building in the area had been destroyed and nearly all the people were killed.
The weapon master was finally at his true power, which caused the assassin to be truly happy in a very long time. The killer had cum in his pants, due to being able to fight such a good opponent.
Jimmy moved at each one hundred and punched the teeth clean out of his family's murderer's mouth. It was the first time that the nameless had been hurt since he was a child. It was a foreign feeling to the killer. His pleasure turned into pain because he was a sexual sadist. He didn't like to be in the masochist role.
The villain picked his teeth off the ground and put them back in their socket still covered in dirt. He used his ki to heal the injuries in his mouth.
“That’s it! One hundred percent!”
The Socanas hitman powered up to his greatest heights of ability. The Richter scale then went up to fifteen! The ill run nation was not made for such high-class battles and the land reflected that fact.
Jimmy punched the evil one in the face, but it did little damage to his foe. The serial killer returned the strike. Both men were dead even and the battle ensued.
Both men were giving their all at greater than Mach one hundred! Any onlooker was unable to see the fighters at all. They were just using basic attacks at this point and they were dead even in a test of strength. Each fighter was clenching their hands together trying to get the better over the other.

The ground was breaking into long ruts under their feet.
Jimmy spoke, "What is your name, so I know what to put on your grave marker? I will give you
more respect in death than you deserve! us Lowrodans will not denigrate the dead.”
The killer spoke, "I am known in my homeland simply, as General Tao!"
Jimmy Sr’s mouth was agape in bewilderment and lost his concentration.
Tao grabbed Jimmy by the shirt collar and threw him over half a mile into the ground.
The killer, General Tao was the worst assassin in all of the nations of Lowrado and Socanas. He was without peer when it came to the art of murdering people for a living. He only answered to the royal Socanas family.
Jimmy jumped flat-footed out of the hole in the ground with ease.
He dusted himself off as he spoke, "So, the legends are true. None of your victims has lived to tell what you look like. That poor man back at my family's place was one of the few people to live after seeing you. I will be the second person this day!”
Tao was in a facepalm position as he laughed, like a madman.
"That weasel is already dead since I put a timed strike on him. He was probably died even before the land even shook. You will be no different!”
Jimmy spoke, Our power and speed have capped, so let's see whose' secret techniques are better!
I will start it off, so be prepared.”
The weapon master started to motion in a circle around Tao, while hiding in the human eyes' blind spots.
The general spoke, "Using shadow step will not help you in attacking me!"
This move allows the martial arts to move inside one’s blind spots.
Jimmy spoke, "Then let's use stage two!"
Shadow step stage one allows one to move in most people's blind spots. Stage two allows one to
travel in nearly all of the attended targets dead spots in their vision
The young master was in the mode of shadow step. Tao had a problem dodging his target's attacks.
Tao spoke, "You are a fool to think that I depend on just my eyes to fight.”
Jimmy yelled, "Stage four!"
Shadow step stages three and four allows the user to remove nearly all sources of noises emitting off oneself.
General Tao easily dodged all the attacks as if it was nothing.
The killer was feeling the vibrations of Jimmy’s movements through his own feet.
Jimmy shouted, "Stage six!'
These stages allowed one to remove almost all of my vibrations so that the victim couldn't feel them even while touching them.
Tao went into a meditative state and smacked Jimmy clean in the face, as an act of humiliation.
Jimmy was angry by the insult as his face had a hand imprint on his left cheek.
He yelled out, "Everlasting soul!"
This technique allowed one to break one’s ki, physical, and mental limits by removing the governor that God had placed on his body.
Jimmy Sr punched a hole clean through Tao’s heart. The warrior was still in his extended arm position as he used his legs to remove himself from the pit of flesh and bones.
The general's head was tilted all the way behind his backward leaning back, with his eyes rolled to the back of his head.
The weapon master was still uneasy by the sight of the supposed dead foe, as he started to circle the still standing for.
A set of hands grabbed Jimmy's feet between strides and held him down to the ground. The
wounded Tao disappeared. A whole Tao appeared before him.
Jimmy cursed, "You will not take me this way!"
A flash of light went off, emitting from Jimmy’s body
#
Three days go by and the men of the village, with Mary in tow, arrive at the battle site to see what had occurred.
Mary gasped, "My God!"
Jimmy Sr's body was covered in a metallic substance frozen in position.
He had a look of peace over his face like he was taking a glance of heaven before he dies.
She fell down to the feet of her dead husband.
A handwritten note was at the back of Jimmy's feet.
“I am the infamous General Tao, and your friend here has decided to be frozen in metal for eternity. I would normally kill all that was nearby my target, but Jimmy here fought me in a fierce battle, that made use all my powers! My mission is done here, so feel lucky that I had only killed four people, not including the ones destroyed, as a side effect of our terrible battle! No traitor’s bloodline
can be spared, as commanded by the high priestess of the invisible hand!”
Mary had read it and the letter burnt into dust. She fainted with tears running out of her eyes.

Nero Zero
Monsters plagued the lands for too long. No matter if one had fangs, beak, teeth, skin, fur, or feather, or was tall, stout, or diminutive, the people suffered. Until the Gadgeteers came with a device that could allow people to fight back. Powered by one's own magical power, feeding off of monster Essence, the Arbitrium bracer turned the tables. It also changed society. Strength of one's level cap was all that mattered. The strongest were Kings and Emperors. The weak or those too poor to afford the marvelous device, destitute. And so it has been for millennia. All that mattered was one's level cap. High, low, a fate decided the moment the strange contraption came alive. Too high and you were a threat to those interested in keeping the status quo, a weed to be nipped before it could grow and take root. Too low and you were nobody, fated to be a bit more than a simple farmer. What if someone, somewhere, came up with a zero for their level cap? Unable to use Essence, unable to level up. On all of recorded history, it never happened. Until it did. In a small village of fur-less and tail-less ape-beastkin, a boy found out he was uniquely handicapped. Nero's level cap was Zero. But he'd never let that stop him from reaching his goals. ------------------------------------------------ All stories have already been told. We merely reuse elements from them. From Joseph Campbell's Monomith to Stephen King's advice, and that encyclopedia of tropes you've visited, fiction has been dissected and reassembled countless times. One will surely find elements inspired on other works here. Just like cooking from basic ingredients, the recipe and presentation is what really matter. This is a fantasy adventure, of someone that goes from a zero to a slightly bigger zero. It will have romance but no harem. Cruelty but with hope dimly shining ahead. Lightweight where it can be, heavy where it must. Thanks for reading. Cover Credits (The cover is CC-BY-NC-SA): Steampunk Spider Bracer, by Daniel Proulx.
