《Real Fake World》07 Elites and Elites
Advertisement
The next day at breakfast they once more saw Vadima, the exotic warrior instructor.
"Today we will once more have a training session"
She said making the warriors classes sigh in disappointment. They had somewhat begun to hate training after that painful day.
"I have decided to create my own Elite group"
Mina announced after the instructor.
"What elite group?"
Vadima asked somewhat confused, while Angelo was glaring at her somewhat angrily, he had already spoken with the others and made their own elite group.
"Miss Instructor, we decided yesterday that because most of the people weren't useful in battle and would become a burden to only have a group of the best warriors and people whom were willing and able to fight to form the elite group that will slay the Demon king while the rest are safe and sound"
Chris the leader of the first group and the new leader of the elite group said with enthousiasm and the majority of the people agreed with him.
"Can I say something?"
The one whom spoke was Christopher and of course the question was a rhetoric one.
"What will happen if lets say a level 100 servant accidentaly bumps into one of the girls whom are staying here, with their physique of a child, what would the result be, what will happen if while you are out fighting the demon king someone comes and abducts a person, will you return and begin searching for him or her, I say that untill we are all at least at level 100 or even 200, we should stick to having everyone in a group, just to be safe, after all you never know when accidents might happen or if the king suddenly decides to turn against us, then the whole group staying here will be his prisoners and you will have to do what he tells you to do, even making you evolve into another race"
Christopher gave a speech stretching out lots of reasons as to why they cannot have a single elite team at the moment, the main reason was because they were not safe.
In truth they could clearly see how everyone avoids touching them as if they were made of china.
After the speech even the most stupid of students could now understand that the castle was as dangerous as the monster valley, since every person in the room could easily crush them like a fly.
Vadima had a grudge against Christopher for going against her, but even she couldn't say something against him after hearing his speech, everything he said had a little logic behind it, starting from absurd things to more realistic ones, of course for her them being crushed by a servant was unrealistic, but for the student they could clearly imagine themselves ending like the poor slime they had massacred yesterday.
Even Angelo had became somewhat uneasy leaving his sister behind in this castle full of superhumans, especialy after remembering yesterday's talk about how much strength a warrior should have, even a fucking mage in this world had 10 in physique, while they still only had a meager 1-3.
"If you are so afraid of battle why not just learn crafting skills instead, you will probably level up real fast at the early stages, even reaching level 100 won't be a problem in few years time"
Vadima gave her opinion after some careful though, of course her last words made her opinion useless, in a few years they could die a milion times.
"Are you trully so afraid of the servants, then how about a test, I will have a servant bump into your strongest person, and then you can look through this HM crystal how much health he has left"

Vadima said as she took out a strange cyrcular crystal that looked like a monacle.
"This is a tool for measuring health points, if you look at something living through it, it will become red, showing how much health he has left, it's rather expensive so try not to break it"
Vadima said as she passed over the crystal to the students to fiddle with it.
The crystal was rather simple, one you looked at something alive the crystal slowly filled itself with a red liquidlike substance, thus indicating if his health is full or not, the less the liquid the less health the person had.
"Now whom of you has the greatest physique?"
Vadima asked, of course she knew that it was Christopher, but she wanted the other to suffer a little, since their worries about being killed by a servant were unfounded.
Of course to her surprise the one whom rose was not Christopher but Dimas, whom was the strongest of the elite group, in truth the others had no idea that Christopher already had a two digits physique of 10, while Dimas only had a 5.3, the half of that and even worse he had no skills like toughness since he was a warrior and only got the dodge skill, while his first skill was Acrobatics, which he had from the original world.
Dimas was a really sporty and handsome guy, well if there was a reason why he wasn' very popular is would be because of the size of his purse, his family were average people and he also had a junior sister whom was still in junior high, thus his allowance was rather small.
Now you can only imagine the pain Dimas went through when he was bumped into by a young woman servant not much older than himself, with her physique of 20, he was groveling on the floor ready to leave his last breath in this world, bleeding from his mouth due to internal injuries.
Not to say that this was only a light bump, imagine what would happen if the servant was running at the time of the bump, well the gore could be easily imagined.
They didn't even need a health measuring crystal to understand that he was seriously injured, while the one whom had the crystal had seen that Dimas' health was no more than a few drops from the bottom.
Nick the tall guy and leader of the second group whom was a healer quickly charged to heal him, his healing touch power was by now known to be the strongest healing technique at least before the level up it was.
Due to the commotion the guards arrived and begun interrogating, the whole thing was written down as an accident, but they could see the Guards trying to drag the pleading and crying for her mercy servant.
"Let her go, it's not her fault!"
Mina shouted with a pretext of upholding justice.
"Yup it's my fault for running into her!"
The one whom had spoken was Dimas and the guards begun shivering for some reason, they could only imagine what would have happened to them if one of the weakling heroes run into the.
They were warriors, theirs strength was leagues above the servants, if Dimas had run into them it would be no different than running head first onto a brick wall.
The Servant girl spent the rest of the time kneeling to the noble heroes and thanking them for showing mercy to her, but everyone's eyes were fixed on the instigator of the matter, whom was Vadima whom was calmly eating her meal as if non of this had to do with her.

"Why is everyone looking at me, Am I so pretty when I eat?"
Vadima asked as if not understanding the problem present, she had after all already retrieved her health measuring crystal, so there wasn't anything else she cared about.
Her eyes however then fell on the servant still kneeling and thanking them.
"Why isn't she dead yet, didn' the guards hear what just happened, well since she's kneeling I think she probably pleaded her way out of trouble"
Right then the students understood once more the diference in coulture, between their modern world and the this fantasy world.
In this world the value of human lives was very cheap, dying was pretty easy for servants, but what they didn't know was that even nobles had their heads hanging in the air, waiting for the executioner's axe at a single order of the King.
Of course when your own life is in constant danger why would you care for anothers life, he should be the one to take care of his own life.
Goship begun all throughout the table as they ate, at the moment the table looked much like the legendary noble parties, where people grouped together to share secrets, the seats had also changed and many people were asked to change seats since the groups were already disbanded the day before.
"Did you see that servant girl's ass"
"Isn't Vadima too cruel"
"Do you think it's safe staying in the castle?"
Dozens of questions were thrown around in a hubab of words, impossible to discern whom were joking and whom were serious, some even talked about the future or more serious matters.
Of course there were also those whom like Christopher simply enjoyed their food, after all you shouldn't talk while eating, cause you might choke.
It was midday when they finaly made their way towards the training field, Vadima could only curse their lack of understanding that their own situation, well it didn't really matter, because this time the training was authorized by the king himself.
"Today's training will be on evasion, more importantly evading missiles, the servants on the other side will be throwing spoiled eggs at you, if you don't want to get your clothes dirty better evade them well"
Vadima said with a sense of disdain.
"Why does it matter, after all there is a cleaning spell that can make them as good as new, yesterdays I asked a servant about a change of clothes and he told me that there was no need for one"
The one whom spoke was Elen, she was the leader of the infamous goshipers in the school, if she learned something the whole school would know the next day, she was quite hated by many of the students, but she had a lot of fashionable friends, in general if you didn't want to be in her black list you shouldn't go against her.
"Oh, so it's the noble amongst the heroes, you do understand that in a dungeon there are no servants to clean your clothes, or do you think that it's wise to take weak people into the depths of hell, do you even think they will survive till you defeat the demon king?"
Vadima's questions did make sense to them, but in general it was common sense for noble adventurers to keep an attendant at their side, since they wouldn't travel too deep inside the dungeon to begin with.
Elen however didn't seem too enthusiastic about being told off, she then became rather skeptic and simply nodded with a smile thanking her for the advice.
In general all thirty nine students were hit by the spoiled eggs, since the servant's physique was too great, but in general it wasn't by more than a 3/10. They were thrown ten eggs at a time, from the ten three would always hit.
"Normaly this training is done with training arrows, but since you are too weak to take even one arrow, we had to gathered spoiled eggs for this, you have to understand that these eggs could have been eaten instead of being left to spoil"
Vadima said with a rather reproaching tone.
"She surely does like her eggs"
Suddenly there was a whisper comming from the students, of course she could hear it since her physique was much stronger than a regular person's but it did make her feel a little angry because there were lots of those sorts of comments appearing all of a sudden, some even talked about her ass of pair of tits.
"The training Session ends here, servants please clean the training field and their clothes, I will be going back first"
Vadima left while trying to hold back her anger, if it was anyone else she would simply slay them on the spot, but those "heroes'" position was rather special at the moment.
Elen had a victorious grin on her face as she saw the beautiful Instructor leave. In general Elen was average looking, but liked to put on tons of makeup while wearing the latest of trends.
But her vengeful spirit hadn't been satisfied yet, after the instructor left she approached a servant and wispered a few words in her ears after that they begun goshiping as if they were sister souls.
Around 6 in the afternoon when the sun begun to fall into dusk, the students were gathered once more for dinner.
"So how will we be divining the groups?"
Chris the leader of the so called Elite group asked, he was also somewhat worried for the people whom weren't strong enough to fight, if they went on with forming the elite group, then the other groups will end with no firepower at all.
"How about selecting one guy per girl, thus making pairs"
The one speaking was Elen whose mood was rather high at the moment and she simply wanted to wave her tongue around like a victory banner.
"Wouldn't that create unessesary problems especialy for those the guys whom cannot fight?"
Chris said, making the most in the room agree to his words.
Elen of course wasn't foolish enough to go against everyone, thus she just nodded and went back to goshiping with her friends Giota and Viki.
In the end the decision was made to create two elite groups and two support groups, The first elite group's duty was to become stronger, while the second's was to help the others level up as fast as possible.
Meaning that the Original Elite Group was made smaller in favour of the strongest students, meaning that those that entered through backchannels and connections were sent to the reserve Elite group.
In the end there were only three groups, the Elite group, the Reserve group and the Support group.
The elite group were those that could fight best in the group, it wasn't based on stats but on results both from the training sessions and the slime massacre.
There were twelve members in the elite group, two more than the regular group and there were no mages in the group, only a healer and an enchanter, the reason why the healer and enchanter were chosen was obvious enough for the powers.
In the reserve group there were nineteen people, while the remaining eight decided to create their own group, with only girls and no guys at all.
Making the three groups look like Guys' group, girls' group and the biggest being the mixed group.
Of course all that would in the end prove utterly useless, but since the future is not written on stone and people are just human.
In the end of the four group meeting spots, only two were used, one by the elite group and the other by the girl group, which they named the Support group.
The biggest of the groups, the support group didn't even gather nor had a leader, they were a patchwork group composed of multiple groups that didn't exactly get on with each other well.
That night was rather calm for the students, but there were multiple scholars whom were hiting their heads as they tried to compose the best possible combination of skills for the young heroes.
It was a sleepless night in the Great library of Nivava where the sound of book pages flipping was as tense as never before.
There were 40 heroes for whom they had to create suitable paths that would complement their powers, but most importantly deciding on a selection of skills instead of a single path, meaning creating a skill tree with lots of branches, of course they still had time before the heroes reached level 10, but there were, twelve classes and 40 individuals, they had to factor boys and girls, their abilities, their willingness to fight, meaning their group and other info they were given by the higher ups.
The next day their teacher had another discovery to anounce during breakfast.
"Recently I have discoved a book on magic, it says that the reason why healers don't need to chant to use magic is because of Ecclesis, whom we met before, if for example we had met a god of darkness or a god of water, but more importantly there are still ways to form contracts with them, thus making our magic and abilities not dependant on magicality, of course we will have to learn the downside is that we won't be as strong as a mage, but according to the books it had been done thrice before and each time they simply defeated the demon king, the reason being because mages have a really slow training speed in the early stages since non of us can use magic"
Everyone listened to Mr.Gold's discovery, but in general it was just baseless prattle since he had no idea how they had done it or what the consequenses were.
"Teacher will you also be comming with us to level up?"
Mina asked somewhat worried about their teacher's safety, after all he probably wasn't even level 2, since he didn't come during the slime massacre.
"Maybe later, you see each time I read a book in this world I gain experience, they say that it's because of my Class being that of a scholar, at the moment I'm level 3, but once I reach level 10 I will come with you all to the pillar dungeon, oh by the way did you know that the pillar dungeon has two directions, one going Up and the other going down, they say that The stairs up lead to the gods while down lead to the demons, if we go upwards we might even meet Ecclesis, if we ask him to send us back he might do so, you see there's a record saying that three heroes did just that and were sent back home, of course to reach the 100th froor took them the same or even more time than it took others to kill the demon king of the 100th level, you see the Demon king on the 10th floor is of imminent danger to the locals, thus they summoned us to kill him, but the one in the 100th floor is too distant and poses no threat to their daily lives, thus they don't care about him, but it is the one on the 100th floor that we must kill to return"
The teacher's words made the students shocked, they had been told nothing about the demon king, of course they had no idea how big a floor of the dungeon pillar was.
"Another interesting thing is that long ago there used to be 14 continents, but one of them didn't care about the dungeon clearing stuff not believeing in the demon king either because they had survived for ages without having heroes, but after 100years their kingdom suddenly experienced a flood of monsters thus becoming a monster wasteland"
The teacher said with lots of interest in the world they lived in now, but the main reason was because he already knew how long it took for them to return home, the quickest clearance time was 40years, the slowest 120years while some died in this world because of old age, why they didn't use the evolution curse till the end was a constant bother to him at the moment since he had learned that the way to lift the curse did indeed exist.
"Teacher could you search for alternate ways of gaining experience for other classes as well?"
Mina asked with renewed hope for the support group and the reserve group.
"But I have already researched into it, in general there is something called Class specific experience sequense, warriors gain experience by training, in other ways through the training sessions you had these days, of course your rate of gaining experience depends on the seriousness of the training, at the moment what you are doing isn't even light training thus you are gaining no experience at all, mages gain experience by learning new spells, once your magicality and memorization reaches 50, you will be given spellbooks to record whatever spells you want, memorization is a rather incredible skill do you know what it does, it simply cuts in half the magicality requirements needed to learn and cast spells, some of the mages might have seen that your abilities have a percentage of success, memorization raises that percentage by one per level and at level 10 it will evolve in some way, maybe even making it twice as effective, By the way for warriors the dodge roll ability is pretty amazing, in the starting form it's rather simple and hard to use, but when it evolves there are tons of records about it, some even gaining a teleportation ability out of it"
The teacher said and then drank a gulp of juice to water his drying mouth.
"Rogues are rather unique if you are able to hide successfully without the use of a skill you will gain experience points depending on the monster's or creature's level, even humans are considered valid targets to hide from, some even play a rogue game of hide and seek, of course I wouldn't recomend it since the seekers try to kill the rogue, hiding from non hostile creatures doesn't give you any points at all"
The rogues begun gulping hearing the game's full contents.
"Generaly speaking you should all give me the information of your class so that I can find your way to acquire more experience, since there are too many classes registered inside the books, I simply cannot remember them all"
The teacher said and the students understood that he simply didn't remember the rest of the classes at the moment and only saw the most basic warrior, rogue, mage classes.
After the breakfast there was another training session this time however they were put to run around the field until they fell exhausted to the ground.
Vadima took record of their time of fall and those that faked exhaustion were punished by doing the egg throwing session before resuming to run.
Of course the reason she knew they were faking it was because she knew their approximate physique, if they fell before reaching the approximate point they were clearly faking it.
The thing however that made her shocked was that some were running even beyond what was thought to be their limit, this of course the result of them jogging and not running at full speed like most of the people did, of course if they had simply run they would have ended this session a lot sooner, but right now there were five individuals that were still jogging even when everyone else were resting.
Vadima didn't understand what sorcery this was, in their world reserving strength was a sin punished with death if you don't do your best you will die sooner or later by some sneak attack, thus they had the unwritten rule of always going full strength against their enemies, thus lacking skills for extended combat and the general disdain for passive skills.
"The five of you can rest, the others begin running once more, I want to see you crawling out of this training session"
Vadima shouted like a drill sergant from hell. Of course there was a reason why she was angry, the day before rumors begun circulating that she had a hit on one of the heroes.
Now every servant was trying to guess which one it is, but it also made many of her pursuers angry with her thus causing a shitload of trouble, especialy since one of them was a prince of this country.
Of course Elen knew why the instructor was so irrational today and she swore to take revenge for every drop of sweat she dropped.
Of the five people running only four however stopped, Christopher continued not really caring about her instructions to begin with, from the start he was only running because he liked to run, he simply enjoyed th feeling of running and of the five he was the only one really running, the reason was that his physique was already 10, something that the instructor didn't know, after all as a mage logicaly he should raise his magicality, but even if he did raise his physique it would be impossible to normaly run so, but truth was that other than jogging there is a thing called tempo, if you run at a steady tempo and keep a steady breathing you can naturaly run for far longer than normal, of course you would still get tired and might even feel muscle ache tomorrow if you haven't been running frequently.
Of course the main culprit of Vadima's revenge by the end of the session was litteraly carried away by the servants. Elen could still hear Vadima's laugher after the session, haunting her like a demon from hell.
Of course the next day after the visit of a healer to removed their muscle ache they were informed that Vadima was relieved of her duty as instructor due to personal reasons, namely she was promoted.
Elen wanted to shout out loudly curses into the sky, but seeing as the others didn't really care about the whole matter she let it drop for now, after all she had tones of ways to deal with her even if she wasn't there.
"The tongue has no bones, but can easily crush them"
There's a saying going like that, of course not meaning rhetoric eloquence but that words can hurt very much.
Of course tomorrow they would have the hunt, but today because of Vadima quiting they had a day off.
Of course most of them went to the training grounds to practice, since warriors could gain experience through training why no judt training.
Lieutenant Brigs, the ratmug healer was overseeing their training, most of the time however he simply sat on a chair in a shade and some even suspected that he was asleep, well it wasn't as if they would kill one another anyway. Simply said however the day passed as anticlimaticaly as it begun.

The Elementalist
The world was thrown into chaos as humans all over the planet were taken to participate in the Trials. A contest to separate the strong from the weak. Each human was given the chance to prove their will and grow in order to survive. Little did everyone know that before this all happened certain individuals were taken to test out the system. Tide was one of those individuals and sadly failed to survive. Instead of dying he was just brought back into the main event when everyone else began. Having a second chance to do better Tide prepares himself for what is to come. Ps. cover image isn't mine. I am just using it as a place holder for now.
