"something" discussion
'something' thought
*something* sfx
Dan
"I... I DID IT!!" I screamed.
I did! I punch this monster that can fight us equally, with fewer stats than us, and in a 1 vs 5 situations.
It feels so good!
I sat on the ground with a grin, and stare back at John who after cleaning his face, was staring at me.
"I've lost." He said.
He seeming to have come back his usual self, without bestial feel.
During that time, the others had time to run at me and to congratulate me for this win.
"I didn't think you would be able to punch, no I will change the way I say it. You shouldn't have been able to touch me" He then looked at the others "This fight should've shown you that even with a better physic, even with a numerical advantage, you can loose.
Looking at me again " My unexpected defeat should show you, that everybody can lose, even when a battle can look like lost, if you are still alive then that mean that there is still a chance to win."
"But John he cheated! It isn't a fair win!" Carl
"Cheat?! Didn't I say that you could use anything to win?It's your fault if you didn't think of that?
Now Fair? You came 5 vs 1 on me then you talk about fairness? You're kidding, right?
No? SO you wish to be "fair" right, so you will fight only enemies at your level? Never Lower, never higher?
So if you're ever involved in a war and say "stop we cannot fight they are stronger" or in the match "Oh it isn't fair!He uses his left hand to surprise me when before he always used his right?".
Seriously?if you wish to survive in this world, get rid of that mindset." John angrily retorted.
"Ok John" Carl
Wow, John got angry...I hope I will never get him angry at me... Carl seemed about to burst into tears.He was glaring at me.Could it be that he takes me responsible for John's scolding?
Before I had time to reflect anymore on this John glared at me.
"Well congratulation Dan, but thanks to you those guys will joke at me for quite a time, "He said with a sad smile, pointing behind him.

'Those guys?'
Following his finger, I saw 10 figures that seemed to have appeared instantaneously.
"Hehehe, you're right John, you'll hear us for at least 2 months!" said one one those.
"Pfff you lost to a noob," said another, trying its best to not laugh
"Tch, when I was young instructors didn't lose to a newbie," said the one on the left, shaking his head from left to right.
I couldn't see any of the characteristics of those in this group, not even if they were male or female by their voices.
Even if they were in the sunlight I could only see black figure.
"Shut up guys! Well those guys there, are the other instructors. They are adventurers that were caught and who survived to the dome" John
"Oooh" "Seriously" "They must be strong" were muttered around me, I just keep quiet.
" 'cause they're quite strong they were offered to stay in the village as instructors, they have each their specialty, and teach it" John
I was a little stunned hearing that, it's hard to stay alive in the dome, but it's even harder to get accepted in the village because of one's strength.
"They accepted and gave up their name to stay in the village, so you will call them by their nickname, if you do well enough, maybe one day you will be able to know their name. Well, it's not for now. We have to go to the lunch so let's finish quickly!From left to right you can see Hammer, Artemis, Blacky, Rogue, Slayer, Aqua, Blaze, Stone, Hunter, Aero, Sadic" As he was saying the last nickname the figure in question seemed to teleport near him and punch him in the face.His face met the ground and he didn't stand up, he didn't even move, He seemed to have fainted.
As I look at the one that gave us so much problem in the fight getting one-shot, I was shocked and awed by those instructors.
"Eh?! Usually, he dodges that and I have to hit him at least 5 times to get him to faint.Ah, that stupid didn't have his stats.Well, it's his fault anyway.So, children, you calm me Whip, okay?" Whip

After what we saw, we all nodded earnestly.
"Well cause it's my fault, so I will finish for him.So now that we saw your performance you will choose your instructors, you need to choose at least two, one that will show you magic and the other how to use a weapon.
The nicknames should be explicit but I will explain it:
Hammer will teach you blunt weapons, as the hammer or the mace, Artemis the bow, Slayer cutting weapon axes, swords and others.I will teach how to use a whip and how to get information from an enemy but it'll be when you're older if you wish.
Blacky, Aqua, Blaze, Stone, Aero and I will teach you the elements of their nickname, darkness water fire earth, wind.
I teach magic for the plant element.
Don't worry if no one in this group teaches about the light element the teacher just couldn't come but she will. Her nickname is Cleric.
Rogue will teach how to be an assassin, even if few chose this way of fighting, and Hunter how to survive in the wildness.
You will all have Hunter as a master because it's vital to know how to survive in the wildness." Whip
"I say that you choose your instructors but it's only for the supplementary courses. The instructors will choose you now from what they saw today."
Carl got chosen by blaze and Slayer.
Ryan and Ian by Hammer and Stone.
Seb by Aqua and Artemis.
Ron by Aqua and Hammer.
Alexandra by Blacky and Whip.
Mary by Cleric and Artemis.
Maya by Whip only.
And I was chosen by Blacky and Slayer.
"You will see with the instructors in private if you wish to learn what they teach, ok?" Whip
We nodded.
"Well we'll end this session with an informat-"Whip
"Wait!!!" She was interrupted by Rogue pointing at me " I want him! Did you saw his performance? He is perfect for what I teach"Rogue
"Dan you've been chosen !" With that, I got another teacher.
"So, I was trying to say that we will finish this session with a little information and the gift John promised You.
In school there is a system of the point, with those points that you win by completing assessments from your instructors you will be able to materials, equipment, and sorts. For example, your magic instructors will teach you basic sorts for free and sometimes more advanced spell, but if you wish to learn more you will have to trade what you wish to learn with your instructor with your points. You will be able to see the shop and its schedule with the shopkeeper that is John when He will wake up.
So each month you get 100 points, so you already have 100 points.
For participating in the battle against John you get 50 points. So congratulation to those that dared to fight and too bad for the others! So 150 points for everyone except Mary, Maya, Alexandra, and Ron.
Now the Gift 50 point for Carl for the attribute test with the mana stone and 25 for you Dan.
Yeah, the First one will always be more rewarded than the second! Remember that!
And Dan for punching John I give you 100 points 'cause it's a first, and as a bonus, because you punched him in the face I give you a bonus, you can ask something from me for free. It's gift because It was awesome to see a little boy taking back to reality this combat maniac.
So we will stop there for this morning, you can go and eat.
We will contact you shortly."
On those words, they disappeared one by one.
A.N: Giving nickname and making the instructors appear as a shadow, a way for me to not give them a name and have time to think of their appearances? I don't know what're talking about.
">
Anyway, hope you enjoyed this chapter. The next one should a training chapter with some time skip but in 1 or 2 chapters I think there will be an event that will change our mc.
Well, I hope you can comment 'cause it's always awesome to know if you enjoyed the chapter or if there is a mistake.
That it so see you next time

After the End: Serenity
We all want to believe we are heroes of our own story - unless we want to be the villain, of course. At the end of everything, the Final Reaper decided he hadn’t been a hero. Driven by a desire to right the wrongs he was subjected to, he killed everyone who wronged him or his people - which turned out to be everyone that wasn’t killed by someone else first. He'd won - but it was a hollow victory. Eventually, Order’s Voice found a way out. If the only existing being would agree to give up most of his power, the Voice could reset the multiverse to an earlier time with a few minor changes. Of course, the Voice couldn't ask it that way. It could only ask if the Final Reaper was willing to start over from when Earth was first brought into Order. It was an easy decision, and yet it wasn’t. Was he willing to go through eons of pain again to not be alone? Yes. In a heartbeat. Not that his heart beat anymore. Now it would. Perhaps he could even be a hero, this time. When he landed in his old body - more or less - on Earth, the Final Reaper once again became Thomas. He was both and neither. He needed a new name for a new life. Serenity. ------------------------------------------ While this is technically a System Apocalypse story, it's a System Apocalypse that is designed to have a large percentage of the population survive and prosper. There are a lot of problems that come with the appearance of the Voice, and it's entirely possible to lose. Earth has some special opportunities, but also special challenges. The first time around, Earth won the first round and lost the second. Serenity has ten years from when the Voice arrives to prevent that from happening. It will be a group effort; Serenity can't win alone - which is difficult for someone who's been alone for as long as he has. Of course, that's only his second priority. ------------------------------------------- Updates Daily A note on the nonhuman lead tag: He isn't human, and hasn't been human for a very, very long time (or maybe not long at all, depending on how you count it). He still thinks of himself as human, either way. The content warnings are mostly to give me room to write; this fiction is not intended to be edgy, but once in a while a character will swear or someone will get seriously injured. The cover image is a Chandra/Hubble composite image of VV 340 / Arp 302 / UGC 9618. While we're not going to space itself any time soon in the story, people from elsewhere are coming to Earth and Serenity will visit other planets. Plus, I like space imagery.

(Re)Install
After his death, Garry, AKA Gaz, is summoned by a nameless goddess to another world and tasked with a very important mission, the main characters sets out to travel around in search of a way to accomplish his objectives and live happily ever after.The catch? The mission is to save the same goddess, who've been sealed away for all eternity in who knows where. Having little to no energy left, she was unable to create a decent blessing, so Gaz is left with a weak body in a savage world that he knows nothing about.Also, did i mention he wasn't reincarnated as a human? Neither as a beast? Well...His actual body might actually not be that bad. As long as he survives the first day, of course.-------------Okay, some of you might know from Insania Online, some don't, so might as well explain it here. This is a Re: (ish) style story, with a Scifi (ish) setting and some fantasy (ish) assets (precision is overrated). This is kind of a side project I will work while I take a break from insania.This is a crazy idea i had thanks to a certain game's trailer, and decided to write it. Even if it starts fairly serious, it will probably have a lot of wacky comedy, so don't say you haven't been warned and don't try to take it too seriously. Really. If you are expecting a dramatic and heavy story, this is very probably not what you want(who knows? I'm just starting it...).
