《E》Ch 32 You Have to be Kidding…
Advertisement
Hope and G were surprised by Rose’s words.
“What do you mean?” G looked at rose with a serious face.
“Well, yesterday after we trained together Spence mentioned that he thought that my power was amazing right?”
“Yes…” this time I responded
“And I said that I wanted to be useful, so I wanted to try it by myself”
“That’s too dangerous”
“I know that … so I asked Dante to help me”.
“You asked my cat to help you check your power?”
“You say that, but you always ask him for help, and you know that he is probably smarter than my brother right now”
“Hey!!” G was hurt by her words
“Sorry, the point is, even if you both are there, neither of you have any power that can help. Gerhard has a physical enhance, and the time I used my power when I was with you, you weren’t able to see me, with those eyes.”
I knew she was right but overseeing the process would give us some peace.
I sighed.
“You are right but if something happened to you Dante wouldn’t be able to help”.
“I told him to call you in case of anything happens. In any case, the safest way was to use my power while I am keeping a mental connection with Dante, and it worked.
The times I used before today I didn’t pay much attention to anything. The first time I used I didn’t even think of it being a new power. The second time I had to go back right away because I fainted on the spot and Spence had to catch me.
This time I wanted to pay attention to my surroundings. I called Dante and told him to keep the connection with me and you in case something happens.”.
That explains the link was there when I went to sleep and when I wake up.
“Did you discover something?”
“Dante and I talked all the time while the experiment was going on, if I stopped talking or answering him he had to call you.
First, I left my body and walked around my room for a minute. It was like the world got a photographic filter on, I saw all in greyscale. I went back to my body and there were no problems.”
“Did you get a headache, dizziness or any strange symptom?”

“No, nothing like that, I decided to rest a couple of minutes and left my body again.
I repeated this a couple of times but each time I went farther from my body.
I can pass through doors, but not through the walls, I tried to interact with some objects, but I couldn’t touch most of them.
I never left the building, but I went to the roof, and to the farthest, I went down was the first floor”.
We all listened to Rose’s little experiment.
“Did you feel anything wrong as you went farther away from your body?”
“That’s the reason I didn’t leave the building. When I was on the first floor I could feel something pulling me back to my body, and I thought it could be dangerous if I try to get farther”.
I was thinking about all she told me.
“There are more thing we need to test, but for now you should try to get used to moving around in that realm, and you can´t leave the building”.
“I agree I want to see if I’m able to interact with an object in some way”.
“Did you tried to interact with someone?”
“No, I just lied down next to you for a while but never touch you or did anything to any of you”
She went bright red after her confession.
For some reason, G was giving me an annoyed look
‘… it’s not my fault, dude’ I thought to myself’
I tried to change the subject
“Later we need to see if you can interact with people too”.
It looked like when I said that she started to ponder about something.
To be honest I was quite surprised by her.
Clairvoyance was an amazing power before. But I still have this feeling that there is a lot more to her power than what we know.
Her fast thinking perk made her go from an intelligent girl to a genius.
Her honesty perk overrides her shyness, the way she talked was much more direct thanks to this, and she didn’t save her opinions as before.
Unfortunately, she was bounded to have a lot of embarrassing moments too… like her fangirling at the beginning, or the confession of what she has done during her experiment.
She stopped thinking and told me
“Are you using the ticket?”
“You have any recommendation?”

“A physical enhances, I think with some development me and Dante are enough for scouting, and even without us your eyes can work a little”.
I agreed with her, even if the special category sounded tempting, it was too random, and I have no idea what I can get there, maybe next time.
‘System use the F-ranked ticket in physical enhancement roulette’
Rose was looking at me filled with curiosity, she was still a little flushed.
“And?”
“It’s still spinning”
G didn’t understand.
“What is still spinning?” Hope looked at me with curiosity too since she didn’t get it either.
“When I use the ticket its like a roulette starts spinning to choose the power”.
““Oooh””
The roulette stopped
[Congratulations the user Obtaining Enhanced Reflexes, do you wish to activate your power? (Y/N)]
‘Yes’
I regretted right away my decision.
I fell to my knees, how did I forget this part?.
I’m sure I heard a scream when I fell. The next second I felt one of the most painful experiences in my life.
Each nerve on my body was burning, reforming, and evolving, also new nerves were born appeared and the old ones Changed. I should have activated pain resistance first.
When it stopped I was in the floor in fetal position and soaked in sweat, I felt sensitive everywhere.
All my friends were around me with worried faces.
[Synergy effect discovered, all your senses have improved].
[Body Upgrade Agi+5 Dex+3].
My sight became clear again and made a reassuring smile.
“I forgot that part”.
Hope was next to me.
“Are you ok, you fell and started screaming in pain”
I can’t believe that was my scream.
“Yeah, I’m ok, I just feel a little tired now”.
“What happened to you? That seemed painful” I’m not sure why but G had a little smile on his face.
“I got enhanced reflexes, all my nerves evolved”
I sat on the couch once again.
“Any other questions about the system?”
Rose raised her hand.
“You talked about blueprints, are there for crossbows?”
“Yeah, they are for almost for any type of weapon, what you have in mind?”
“They can be better weapons for us. They aren't as noisy as the fire guns. If we can make the bolts you don’t need to waste points in bullets”
I looked at G.
“If I have the right pieces and tools I can build them”.
I nodded and bought them.
For 10 points I got 2 blueprints. I also made a little modification on both crossbows.
Blueprints were for a light and a medium crossbow (bolts included), the modification was to make reloading easier.
I gave the blueprints to G.
He to look at them and each second he was more surprised.
“Amazing”
When I bought I saw that there was indeed a stock, and the stock for the crossbows now was 0.
“I’m going to rest a little”
Rose stopped me before I could leave the couch.
“But why not we complete the other missions first”
“What do you mean?”
“I have an idea of what Jamie’s plan is, he is a classic “I suffered when young and everybody should suffer too”… also from what you have told me about his possible power I have an idea about it.
If a tell you and I’m right the mission is completed, after that, you can kiss someone, that way you can complete 2 missions now”.
“Rose, I’m not kissing someone just to complete a mission… And the reward is not that good anyway”
[Ding]
[Mission Change: Kiss someone from whom you have feelings for
Type: Normal
Reward: Cha+5/5, ??? (depends on the recipient of the kiss)
Time Left: Unlimited]
“But I don’t mind”
There it was the another of the embarrassing moments I talk about, she was a bright red right now.
What surprised me more was the system mission update.
G suddenly interrupted my train of thoughts
“You are considering it?!?!”
“What! no, it’s just that when I said that rewards weren’t good the system changed the rewards”.
“And you started to think about it because the rewards got better?”
Hope interrupted us.
“Can we go back to the important stuff, you know Jamie’s plans, right?”
“Yeah but you are not going to believe me if I tell you”
“Why not?
“Because is one of the most stupid plan that a villain can have in mind”.
I thought for a second.
“You are saying that Jamie wants to destroy the world?”
“No, the other plan…world domination”
“…”
“…”
“…”
“…”
I thought about what she meant for a second.
[Ding]!
“…”
“You have to be kidding me”.

World War Academy [DROPPED]
EDIT: Hello, as you can tell this story is dropped. reason why this is the case is that I really didn't know where I was going to take this story and really, I wasn't satisfied with how I was writing here. However I am currently writing a completely new story and with it is that I am taking some aspects from here and using the ideas on my new story. New characters, new ideas, new plot, everything is completely new. So I hope that goes well and i'll leave this story up as reference for me in the future. Thank you Akani Kizuato.

It may seem that way but with his whole life planned out, it may not seem to be. He had been rejected from all universities within the nation despite being top of his class, which is very unusual because even local colleges rejected him. It was as if he was banned to go to any of those places but uknowingly why. As he ranted, and relieved stress on the school rooftop, he had received an email from an anonymous source saying that he was accepted into some academy, which he had never heard of before. With events that lead up to his mysterious encounter with people who are there to take him, it may be quite a ride. Cover art made in Adobe Spark.

Ode to Freud
For those who do not understand the reference, "wish fulfillment" is before anything a term created by Sigmund Freud in the 1900's. In psychology it is a state of satisfying unconscious needs and desires by the use of fantasy and delusion. In literature it is the very base of fictional work, but also the name of a style of writing where the author sacrifices the key elements of good storytelling in order to fulfill his own psychopathic, neurotic or perverse needs and desires, usually through the use of the characters in weird and forced situations. What I meant by the title of this story is that it is a trashy, badly written, shitty story about me getting some wish fulfillment by the use of some characters and a fictional world of my creation. Not the good kind of fulfillment, since my wishes are of the bad kind and I intend to fulfill those, not yours. Also, being a total amateur and not writing a proper plot before starting are two big indicators that this story is going to go bad. I guess Royal Road call this kind of stories the "Mary Sue" kind. So, unless you are a very ugly piece of trash (at least as much as I am) don’t bother reading it. Now, if you ARE messed up on the level of a clinically depressive, lightly suicidal, lolicon/shotacon aligned morbidly obese hikikomori vermin who sold his virginity to a prostitute and is currently living at the costs of his widowed mother after expending all the money he got from his father’s inheritance, all the while masturbating furiously to beast/furry dickgirl hentai, then be welcomed. Please feel free to get a serving at my antidepressants and also at the canned tuna I have stored in the fridge. There may be some cheese somewhere, and I am pretty sure I bought some juice the other day, but I have no idea where it is. Anyway. You may dislike what I write because of all the amauteur(ish) writing, or you may not. Who knows. Give it a try and write a comment. It gets lonely writing to no one. Also, feel free to grant me inspiration not only by making comments about the world and/or characters, but specially by suggesting a music for me to listen while I write the next chapter. Be warned : I do get influenced easily by the background music I listen while writing. If you exist, of course. I'm seriously doubting anyone has read anything after the "lolicon hikikomori" thing. Also, I have a tiny dick.Just so you can feel better about yourself a little more. Or maybe I have just degraded psychologically a little more and now I am into shame-play. I wonder if the psychiatrist would increase my meds a bit if I told her about it.Hope I never get to penispanick, though! Self-mutilation, especially of the castration type, would be baaaad. After all, I do like my prostitutes. And having sex with them when I can afford it. Oh, yeah, the story. I will just write the first chapter in a few moments.Until later, b(i)each.
