《Limitless》Chapter 4 - Introductions
Advertisement
Wess was currently sitting inside his cabin. The wind blew across his face, as he looked out of the window to see the pale blue sea. He sighed to himself, and looked around to see if anything could entertain him. He was not a very patient child and was almost always playing back in the village. This sudden change of environment brought on a very negative attitude, shrouding Wess. This was done unconsciously, and looked like pitch black smoke surrounding him.
This wasn't noticed by any of the experts on this ship, because it was a very pure emotion. Wess was just sad and angry that he had to leave all his friends, which was natural for someone of his age.
"Let’s see if I can find anything fun on this ship." Wess walked out of the cabin and started walking around the ship, while the smoke slowly dispersed.
The ship was adorned with extravagant jewels, and Wess was wearing a plain blue robe. However it was made with the finest silk, and so looked beautiful. It was a gift that even nobles would salivate over, not to mention the ordinary guards protecting the talent children. Thoughts such as robbing the children often came to their minds, only to be crushed by reality.
"Mmmmm so boring." Wess was walking to the room where everyone would meet and found, to his surprise, someone who felt exactly like him. He listened through the door, curious as to who that was.
Normally kids would be eager for an adventure, and that was why Wess assumed everyone else was fine with this boredom. Even he was excited, but the trip seemed dull and so he was angry.
"You're just a battle freak!""
"And you're just an analytical f*ck!"

When Wess walked into the room, there was utter chaos. The curtains were shredded and on the floor, the chairs were upside-down, and nearly everything was damaged in some way. The only things that were still left unscathed were the seats of the other talents.
"You guys are disgraceful, as a talent you should show more grace than this. Both strength and strategy are important in a fight. If you fight with just your strength then you won't be able to make tactics, and so get overwhelmed by someone who has brains. However if you focus on just strategy, then you won't be able to exploit any weaknesses shown to you throughout the battle." The man who had just spoken up had short purple hair, wore a suit, and had purple pupils. His body looked like a gentleman's, but he was the most powerful person on this ship.
Even though this man separated the fight, the two of them looked at each other and it was obvious that they would continue this at a late time, when there was no one to interrupt them.
The man sighed to himself, but then proceeded to introduce himself. "Hello young talents! I am your official guardian, you can call me Erez. I am at level 8. This is all you need to know about me. If you are confused on why there are so many talented folks here, just know that we had to search over a thousand small villages!" The level 8 part confused the young kids, but they didn't interrupt the teacher.
"The next person is the girl who had two legendary affinities" Erez pointed at her. "She has legendary affinities to lightning and wind. Her name is Julie, and I recommend you do not piss her off. Luckily she is not arrogant, nevertheless she is still the most talented out of all of you. If you push her too far, even though the army will have to do this sorrowfully, you may get severe punishments." All the boys looked at her strangely, they didn't know their limits, therefore they didn't know if they should befriend this girl or just stay away from her.

Ren got up and then started introducing himself. "I am Ren. My background is too powerful for you to know. I have a legendary affinity to fire." Ren then sat back down and started meditating.
Ren had short green hair with green pupils. He wore a plain robe, like Wess, but it was in the colour green. He was extremely handsome and if he wished could have a lot of concubines or wives.
"Knowing how to refine at this young age, this generation is simply too monstrous." Erez chided himself on how he was so lazy when he was a kid. His master was the one to force him to do everything.
"I am Terra. I have no blood parents or family, but I like to think of the village head as my father. I have a legendary affinity to earth." The person who had just spoken had black hair with amber eyes.
The kid who felt that strength was the only thing that mattered stood up and started introducing himself. "My name is Julius. I have a legendary affinity to wind. I feel like strength is what matters. If you have strength, you can overpower anyone. It's simple, no matter how much brains you have it doesn't amount to anything if it you don't have the strength to back it up." A twinge of pain went through Julius's eyes, only to be replaced by his pride of having a legendary affinity to wind.
Julius had clear blue eyes and white hair, and even though he felt that power was everything, he was not ripped or covered in muscles. He was very a pure white robe and a necklace dangled from his neck.
"My name is Artemis Qua Efficerent. Call me Artemis. My affinity is for alchemy itself. I can use fire, wood and metal, as they are the necessary components for alchemy. I believe brains over brawns, anyone with brains will be able to defeat someone with brawns. Well as long as they have enough brains." With that he sat down.
"My name is Violet. I am a neutral type mage. However, unlike most people, I was born with good affinities to almost all the elements. Even a legendary to water." Violet curtsied and walked to a nearby chair. Her eyes slightly dulled when that happened, but it would be barely visible to anyone with just the naked eye.
"Well that is all of you. Let’s go and show you around the ship." Erez had not noticed Wess at the back. Neither had the kids The only one who had was Julie.

Living in Paradise
The first thing I saw when I woke up was a group of people standing over me shouting "Happy Birthday!!!". Immediately after they start debating what type of world I came from and calling me 'William'. Later on I would learn that everyone here is reborn from another world and many children come with magic or superpowers or other gifts leftover from their old lives. I came from a world that was, to me, typical modernity. To them it was pretty boaring with the only thing interesting about my world being was a higher than average tech level for a non-spacefaring civilization; technology that wouldn't even work in this new world. All I brought with me was a peculiar mindset and the strong suspicion that there must be something more to life. Once everyone started to clear out my mother took me up in her arms, explained how the world works, and then stabbed me in the neck with a knife. I got better. -------------------- This story was written from the central idea of a simple question: What if a videogame like world, with all the normal video-game staples and tropes, was actually a real world? How would that work? How would people understand the universe around them? What sort of weirdness would the world appear to have from the point of view of someone who recognizes the odd nature of the place? And finally, if left to its own devices, how would this type of world ultimately develop?
