《Limit Break》Chapter 7: Gear Up
Advertisement
Laying there with no more strength. Master Jin has terrifying strength now and I’m experiencing it for myself first hand.
“You’re body is interesting,” Master Jin said while giving me a cup of tea.
“Why do you say that?” as I sip on the tea.
“I expected you to fall within a minute. However, you lasted a good 3 minutes.”
“That doesn’t make a huge difference.”
“Well. You're done with training now.”
“What?”
“I taught you everything there is. The last training for you was to apply what you learned. Now it is up to find your own style in RE Taekwondo. I told you in the beginning, you can create your own moves and combos with no difficulty. All you need to do is imagine,” Master Jin said.
“So what do I do now?” I asked him.
“You should go out there and gain more battle experiences. With that, you should then find your own style of RE Taekwondo,” he said while walking into the cottage.
When he came back out of the cottage, he had a few things with him.
“Here are things you will need for your adventure.”
The items comprised a sack, a journal, and a letter.
“I found that sack along my adventures. It has unlimited amount of space. The letter holds my name and honor. If you run into any trouble in the main city, this should be able to bail you out.”
“And the journal is?” I asked.
It’s a journal with secret moves. Or maybe a journal filled with Master Jin’s adventures.
“It’s just a plain journal. Nothing special,” he said. “When finding your own style. It should come in handy when you write down your ideas.”
As I got up I looked at the items.

“So how do I work this thing?” I asked Master Jin while holding up the small sack.
“You just insert your hand inside with the item in mind. If you don’t. You’ll just pull out a random item.”
“And how am I supposed to write on this journal without a utensil?”
“If you touch it and use your imagination, drawings and words will appear,” he said while making a rainbow with his hands when he said imagination.
“I guess that’s all right,” I said as I put the journal into the sack. “So where should I go to?”
“First off. Go back into town to stock up for the adventure then travel to a town for beastmen. In the town, you should be able to learn more about your own race.”

“Well I guess I’m off,” I said with sorrow.
“You’ll be fine. You're my discipline.”
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It didn’t take that long when I entered the town, it was the same as I left. Nothing seemed to have happen while the time I was gone.
I should go get some new gear for me to wear. Maybe I should also look for new things I could learn that could benefit during my adventure, I thought to myself.
As I entered the tailor shop.
“Good evening. How can I be of help to you?” an old old man with fair clothes asked me.
“I would like to purchase light gear.”
“What might your budget be?” the old man asked.
As I took out my ID to check how much money I had.
Identification CardName:LudusRank:BronzeRace:BeastmenMoney: 1 silver
Holy shit I’m poor.
“1 silver is my budget,” I said shamley.
“I’ll see what I can do.” the old man said as he went in the back.
I think I should go grind some monster or do some quest for money later on.
“This is the only things I could find for your budget.”
The old man came back with some leather gear.

“These were pretty much just sitting in the storage room collecting dust. So I’ll give it to you on sale. So that should be 50 copper coins.” he said as a magic circle was formed over his hand.
“Thank you,” I said as I swiped my card over the magic circle.
“If you need an upgrade. You know where to find me.” the old man said.
“What is my stats?” I whispered to myself while leaving the tailor. “Status Open”

The hellish training paid off pretty well, I now have insane amount of stamina and strength for normal level 1’s.
Well time to look for new skills that will help me along my adventure. I think if I visit the Training Hall, I should find what I need.
As I enter the building, it seemed as crowded as the last time I was in here. People sparing left and right, testing one another's combat abilities.

“Hello. It’s been awhile hasn’t it,” as a girl walks up.
“Hello. Thanks for the last time. Is there anything I can learn to help me during my adventures?”
“If you look in the shelf there. You should find many books about survival skills,” she said while pointing on the far side of the building.
“Thanks,” I said while walking towards the shelf.
There was a lot of skill books about surviving the wild. There was a book on poisonous ingredients and even books on the different rocks around the different regions. A book on different wildlife was also there in the shelf.
I have about 17 slots left for skills until I find myself a class. So I need to make best decision on skills for my adventure.
While searching through all the books on the shelf for a good hour, I had picked up 5 books.
Cooking 101Type:Skill BookDurability:N/AQuality:CYou can't fight with an empty stomach.
Learn the Cooking skill
IdentificationType:Skill BookDurability:N/AQuality:C-Identify.
Learn the Identification skill
Poisonous IngredientsType:Skill BookDurability:N/AQuality:F+Playing with death.
Upgrade Identification skill.
Thief 101Type:Skill BookDurability:N/AQuality:F+Finders keepers, losers weepers.
Learn the Thief skill
Dueling 101Type:Skill BookDurability:N/AQuality:C+I challenge thee!
Learn the Dueling skill
Cooking will help during my adventure because I won't always find myself in a town and it will save me some money. The identification skill will also save me money and the poisonous identification upgrade will also benefit me, not dying from eating some poisonous ingredient. The thief skill will come in handy whenever I need to steal something for a quest, or something like that. I picked up the dueling book just because it sounded interesting.
The cost of the books weren't that expensive, about 20 bronze coins in total.
After paying the for all the books I opened up the Dueling 101 skill book.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Lesson 1: Willpower
One must not forget to fight with not just his body, but a combination with his soul. Without the combination of both body and soul, the individual has already lost the fight. So never falter when you are facing a disadvantage, use your head. There are endless amounts of choices to overcome the challenge at hand.
Lesson 2: Analyze
Observing your opponents movements is crucial towards your victory in a duel. With the understanding of your opponent’s movements, it will allow you to successfully counter your opponent and dodge incoming attacks.
Lesson 3: No Rules
In a fight or brawl, there are no rules. Always have that in your mind and take advantage of your opponent's openings, it doesn’t matter if you fight dirty. Go for areas that will affect your opponent's way of fighting. E.g. Male=Pelvis, Female=Chest, Punch=Elbow, Kick=Knee, etc.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The rest of the pages were all blank pages.

The motivation to never give up, the motivation to keep going forward.

Skill Name:Skill Rank:Skill Level:Skill Experience:Play DirtyBeginner10%[td100]Chance of applying Cripple, Blind, Bleed, etc. to your opponent.

These new skills are going to be helpful during combat. Knowing that I can do things like apply negative effects by just doing cheap moves will save from a lot of battles. The one I can’t even believe is the analyze skill, it’s going to help a lot seeing my opponent's strengths and weaknesses. Leveling these skills will benefit me later on too, the more I level it the stronger the skill gets.
After thinking over how I’ll first test these new skills…
*Uhhhhhhhhh*
A loud moan from a girl echoed in the center of the Training Hall.

Shadowcroft Academy for Dungeons: Year One
Build a Dungeon. Slay Heroes. Survive Finals. Wounded Army vet Logan Murray thought mimics were the stuff of board games and dungeon manuals… right up until one ate him. In a flash of snapping teeth, Logan suddenly finds himself on the doorstep to another world. He’s been unwittingly recruited into the Shadowcroft Academy for Dungeons—the most prestigious interdimensional school dedicated to training the monstrous guardians who protect the Tree of Souls from so-called heroes. Heroes who would destroy the universe if it meant a shot at advancement. Unfortunately, as a bottom-tier cultivator with a laughably weak core, Logan’s dungeon options aren’t exactly stellar, and he finds himself reincarnated as a lowly fungaloid, a three-foot-tall mass of spongy mushroom with fewer skills than a typical sewer rat. If he’s going to survive the grueling challenges the academy has in store, he’ll need to ace the odd assortment of classes—Fiendish Fabrication, Dungeon Feng Shui, the Ethics of Murder 101—and learn how to turn his unusual guardian form into an asset instead of a liability. And that’s only if the gargoyle professor doesn’t demote him to a doomed wandering monster first…

A Fractal Divide
Lesivar is a city in ascendancy. With recent innovations in magical crafting, the common people are experiencing a boom in comfort and wealth. The nobility, long used to being the stewards of knowledge and power, struggle to adapt to the new world in which they find themselves. A precarious balance has been maintained throughout, but forces stir beneath the surface threatening to send the city spiraling into chaos. This is my first attempt at writing anything longer than a short story, and I welcome any feedback or corrections. I'm posting this as I write, with each chapter going live upon completion. My current pace is about a chapter a day, which I expect to take my through the end of November. From there, I'm shooting for a chapter every two-three days until the book is completed, along with an editing pass of what is already up. I'm planning on three POV characters with unique insight into the story as it unfolds. Each chapter will contain only one POV. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Master of Dungeons
-This is my first attempt at uploading a story I created. It is not a fanfic, but uses several systems from other stories I've read. I hope you enjoy, and feel free to leave comments or criticisms as appropriate. Thank you.-Edwin Cast was your (mostly) regular guy living and working in Kentucky. He had a knack for working, and was always bouncing from job to job as fancy took him. Insatiably curious, he was always on the look out for new or interesting information or things to do. You could say he was a 'hard-work fanatic'.But with an ailing mother and the inability to realize that he was being shunned by those considered his 'betters', he met his mortal end at the hands of those people who he replaced. Beaten to death on the same day his mother died, he's soon pulled from the void into a world beyond his own imagination. Reborn into a fantasy world as the last 'Demon Lord', Edwin is expected to rule over a vast number of races, each of which are considered 'monsters' and demon-kin by the zealous human kingdoms of the world. And if that wasn't enough, the only way to progress and make ends meat is to build and control 'Dungeons' for the righteous humans to invade!Edwin will have to give it his all in a world he never expected even existed, and will have to learn to survive with his wits and growing power in order to establish something resembling peace in the war-torn lands of Eternia.-NOTE: I'm still in the process of working on the storyline, characters, and abilities that will be presented. A large number of themes are planned, and mature/adult content is planned. The story may also be a bit slow in some cases, so please bare with me. Thanks again!-NOTE: People have been mentioning the rough grammar and spelling errors that come with my posts; and while I've said so in the forum comments, I'm going to post it here as well. This is all basically a rough draft. I post the chapters as I write them, with only a spell-check for accuracy. None of the chapters are proofread. Once people point out blatant errors, I try to correct them; but otherwise I'm more interested in writing. If anyone wishes to proofread my work, shoot me a PM on the forums! Thanks again.
