《Fighting Back The Tide》Chapter Three
Advertisement
Author Note: This is a temporary table which will probably be updated later when the MC starts getting resistances and the like but for now this will do.
The hell?! I was left completely dumbstruck at that announcement. I had just heard how the world was created which has caused controversy between religious groups and scientists since the dawn of time and how the apocalypse is now upon us and the world will be destroyed in one statement. Figures human nature had something to do with it and how our god in not omnipotent and benevolent as we would like to believe.
World merging in process.
As a result of the changes to the world and your resulting actions various changes have come into effect and new information has been revealed.
New Dungeon Discovered
You are among the first to discover the new dungeon [Benedict Falcon Academy].
Experience gained doubled for one week.
Monster drop rate 25% higher
You have entered Benedict Falcon Academy
This is a training dungeon so players must complete the dungeon to be able to leave. Attempting to leave before completion will result in a 50% chance to die a horrifying and agonizing death or 50% chance to turn into a monster registered to the dungeon and will be confined here.
Well that is more then a little ominous. A dungeon is usually where a group of players have to go through and kill the boss at the end. Usually dealing with traps and having tougher monsters then non dungeon areas. I think we can disregard the traps unless they are man made as this is our school but even then it is going to be very difficult. A dungeon with an unknown amount of monsters and no idea of their level strengths or weaknesses. That is a lethal combination any time and any where and this is our training dungeon?

I was shocked at the rapid messages appearing one after another. Must say I rather like the sound of the title but I am ticked off that after all my killing I never received the double experience! Or did I as it might be retroactive? So how do I check my status? I thought of all of the messages that flashed in front of my eyes previously and decided I would concentrate on the status in my head and see if that would work.

Living With Magic
Arthur, a young magician, is struggling with crippling social anxiety. The issue has reached a point where he likely won't graduate from University. Reaching a crossroads, he must decide whether to try and return to a family he despises or make his own path in the world. Is the magical power he has actually beneficial in the real world? Authors Note: I'm terrible at writing a synopsis, but over time I hope to write a better one. One of my favorite series of books is the Magicians by Lev Grossman and I hope to follow that same line of thinking within my story. How would a society built around magic actually exist and is power and magic actually as great as other stories make it out to be? The story and characters will be completely original and I will try to update the story on a regular basis. Also, any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

He was a sinner even before he was born. A sin that he couldn't be forgiven for. A sin he couldn't be held accountable for. No matter how hard his parents begged, no matter how hard they tried to keep their son safe. Their only option was to hide him. In the process not knowing what kind of monster they had created. They had no idea what kind of evil he held within him. On top of that he realised that a mere human was his only way to sanity. -- "I expected you to run human? Or hear you scream. Why aren't you running?" The smile got replaced with a frown. He looked disappointed. "Why aren't you screaming human?" His eyes turned black and he looked more terrifying than he did before."Y-you won't hurt me."The story is completely made up, the angels and the demons are not the same as in other religions. I have made up a whole different story about the Gods in this book. So be aware.
