《Real Fake World》40
Advertisement
Three days was all it took for Christopher to redeem himself and say the world was real, all it took was mathematics, chemistry, physics, biology, music lessond, dancing lessons.
72hours of no sleep and lessons was enough to make him change his mind about the world of Axis, their lessons were even more hellish than earth's.
Every noble of Axis had to learn 7 languages, you might think that there's no big problem after all he has magic translation, that was exactly the problem, imagine someone repeating the same word two times and even writing it down twice, all you see is the same word, but he has written it in two different languages.
All he spoke and wrote however to them looked like common human language, even worse they begun to teach him some retarded arithmetics, they only used subtraction and addition and would repriment him for using multiplication and division.
Then they went into chemistry and begun to explain their own table of elements, a rather crazy circle that started with void and went outside, while writing some air,water,earth,fire,Aether,hydrogen,oxygen etc.
It was simply too messed up and not even speaking about how they could turn air into earth, earth into iron and other weird alchemical mumbo jumbo as if it was science.
Biology however was the cream and cherry of the circus, they begun to show him pictures of the human body without flesh, the skeleton and other things and naming them one by one again and again.
Although they were right in the knowledge department, they went into analyzing the elven biology, the orkish and the other races and begun to name the different parts, organs which humans didn't have, reasons as to why an ork was so strong and an elf so fast, Orks had a multitude of bones, it was seemingly impossible to say that their bones could break since they were all defracted bones, they had too few large bones, them being their skulls, the elves had a strange muscle composition making them more flexible and fast than humans.
Although it might sound interesting in short, but if you are forced to hear the in depth explanations you would try commiting suicide and they didn't stop with the intelligent races, they then went on into monster biology.
Of course there were also lessons he quite enjoyed, like the dancing lessons given by an old guy and singing lessons by Melodie, the second only being so because she was so his type.
But after he understood that they would begin teaching him non stop, he gave up. He pleaded them that the Axis world was real and for them to let him go.
It might sound like him being a coward, but in truth the only thing that kept him from going insane was the thought that maybe the dwarves will find him, or that he will somehow die, but he discovered that they not only wouldn't let him die, but they would even make sure that he wouldn't die of hunger with some strange stat spectacles, that showed exactly how much it would take for him to die, in other words they kept him in a hungry state for days, his thirst never quenched and he couldn't even move a finger because of the pain all over his body.
The worst however thing was that they wouldn't even allow him to butt an eye as cold water would be purred to wake him up.
Christopher couldn't understand them at all. All this time of torture and once he plead guilty they simply healed him up, dressed him up and begun to teach him some stupid stuff about their cult.

Not everyone however was happy with this development, although they were given a 30days and had only used 3 of them, the others wouldn't simply let it go like that.
The most popular opinion was that he should be shared by all, they wanted him to become a breeding machine for all the cults and not only serving one of them.
The problem was however was how to make him happy, they had long taken a look at the hero's profile which they got, but although it looked as if he was some pervert with three women, there were too many contradictions in his character.
He seemed to trust others easily, but at the same time he was distrusting against everyone and could even be called paranoid.
He had three women, but in reality didn't really enjoy his time with them, they were mostly there to keep him company.
He could easily make money, but he could as easily lose it all, even though he had a knack with founding businesses, but he was the worst at managing them.
There was even one saying that he was honest, but on the other side he run away from the dwarves because he didn't want to work off his debt.
On one thing however the reports agreed, he was strong and dangerous, maybe not the strongest, but surely the most dangerous. It was like giving a mental hospital's patient super powers, unpredictable and uncontrolable.
The main problem was however how to make him wanna stay and breed, they of course had gained some info on the women he liked, surprising to them there were two women fitting the prescription, but it wouldn't be hard to make others look similar to them.Of course this plan would begin once they have the right materials ready, talented individuals.
Only Christopher himself knew how much he wanted to escape that place, but there was a strange contradiction in his will to leave and stay right at the moment.
In truth he could have easily escaped, by using his power, but would it help him in any way.
Just think about it, if he escapes he will probably have to be on the ran again, from his experience he had already understood that the dwarves had some way of finding out his location, because he was a mage and even with his knowledge, he still knew of a few methods of location through magic.
This cult well, he didn't know if it was evil or not, but how evil can it be. He was already scammed with a debt of millions, why would he stay to work for injustice.
You have to understand that the dwarves cared not if the debt was lawful or not, after its registered there's no way to question it, even if it was unfair.
"Someone has to pay"
That's the dwarven motto, they didn't care about justice, their honor was their own and power meant shit if you were too deep in debt, there were even stories about heroes being killed due to falling too deep into debt.
Of course that only occured because they were wastrels and wouldn't earn a single point in months.
Let me explain a simple fact, dwarves cared not for justice, they only cared about two things, first being profit and second revenge, the first of course overcoming the second, there used to also be tradition in the trio, but it died long ago as it clashed with profit.
Lastly the greatest profit the dwarves ever made is through drugs, the illigal sort, the ones that only give pleasure with a terrifying addiction, but some people would still take them willingly, well mostly for the slaves, but it was a business that went on for aeons and was the dwarven coutnry's monopoly since they used undead dust to create the drugs, of course there was one thing about the drug that would make it valuable, it increased the lifespawn of creatures, funny enough it would add an hour or a day or even a year of life to the creature consuming it, thus many old people would end up being junkies, just to live longer, after all it was a lot cheaper than travelling the world in search of an Elixir that could increase one's longlivity and they wouldn't change race or mutate by using it.

Of course the main reason as to why Christopher hadn't left the cult yet was Melodie, he was kind of in love, well he wanted to know more about her, become part of her life and maybe if it was fated to marry.
What he learnt however was a great shock to him, well he already knew that only Ecclesians married, the others had some partner thingy going on, well in a few words, Melodie had two young children, with two different partners, but he was alone now, mostly because she travelled a lot, her former partners kept the kids to themselves.
Axis lacks in the parentage system, they don't really care about newborns and small children, they aren't even recorded until they turn 14 years old, the reasons are simple because firstly they are useless to the state until they come of age and secondly its rather easy to die at a young age for commoners, since children can be birthed like cavages, they simply appear out of thin air, they could even have multiple children in a single day, thus they don't get too tied with one child and mariages due to childbirth or virginity stuff.
Christopher however was from our world, his moral values were a lot different than theirs, he wanted relationship around love and respect and not a short relationship surrounding mindless sex and then breaking up, that wasn't what he wanted.
To begin with he had nothing against perverted stuff as long as both sides agree on the matter, the problem was that he didn't want to do those stuff, for example those people whom do one night stands, pedophiles(legal), guy and lesbians, black and white couples, he didn't care about them, but he wasn't one of them and would probably never understand them, but neither did he have to.
They were free to do what they did(legal stuff only, the others, rapists and pedophiles, although he wouldn't call perverts, they were scum, that should rot in jail).
For example in some contries the accepted age for sexual concent is at younger ages than others, thus they are pedophiles but legaly aknowledged, that doesn't makes them not pedophiles.
Of course there are also perversions like Sadism, Masochism, bondage, roleplay and other strange stuff, well you could call them perverts, but you must respect their tastes, as long of course they are legal and moraly right.(Morals depend on the person)
Of course Christopher was depressed after learning how slutty she was, at least in our world's logic. After all if females didn't have to worry about labors while birthing children there would be a rather different situation and blood ties, well in Axis they were almost non existent.
Alas the more Christopher learned about her, the more he didn't know what to think of her and his own love. They say that love makes you blind, but there's a very thin line between love and hate, once he discovered that she wasn't his perfect idol, he begun to despice her not any less than Alexxa, his heart turning into stone, cursing inside, but trying hard to hope them to find happiness with the ones they love.
=========================================================
Winoria's dungeon pillar, first floor of eternal night.
A fortress stood on the cliffs, Areti whom looked like an angel with steel wings was looking depressed as she gazed in the endless hasm.
As the healer among the three female students she was the most high leveled of the three, especialy since her cheat powers were healing based, she could shine light to heal wounds and her second power allowed her to bestow a physical defense buff as well.
She was even able to fly now since she had input so many skill points in her flight skill, even mastering it in the end.
She was probably the only hero from their class whom had reached level 300 in the whole of Axis at the moment, even surpassing it.
What made her however depressed was that she couldn't save everyone, even though she could learn the resurrection ritual at level 200, but what did it matter since there was no one willing to teach her, even more so since the only ones able to do the ritual were the Ecclesians.
Their quest in Winoria wasn't one to defeat the demon king or anything of that sort. In winoria's dungeon pillar lived the Harpies, half human, half birds, normaly the people of Winoria traded with them, but with the rebirth of the demon king, a problem occured, three Harpy queens appeared.
Normaly the Birdmen did business with the red feathered Harpy Queen, with whom they had an understanding, but now the Blue and Green feathered harpies emerged, making the situation rather problematic.
The greatest problem being that the Blue feathered Harpies had spawned in between the Outpost and the Red feathers' Habitats, cutting off all trade and communications. Of course the birdmen discovered that their allies the red feathered Harpies were in danger, but there was a huge debate, Why instead of destroying the Green and Blue Queens, not making them allies as well, after all the floor was big and the red feathered Harpies took only a small area of it, maybe the best one, which was also the reason to why they were in a pinch right now.
In the past months the three of them each "took command", more like joined a different army, more like took command in name only. Areti supported the first reinforcements and was responsible for holding the fort so that the others could safely retreat when needed and there being a safe supply line to the battlefront, her most however important merit was healing the wounded whom were send back from the battlefield.
Of course at first her healing power was around that of any common healer, but she quickly overcame them and even those talented healers were left far in her dust, not really since she didn't have cure, thus poisons and deceases were her greatest weakness, but there were antidotes for those stuff and some healers whom knew the cure spell, the problem was that they didn't have a cure skillbook handy at the moment.
It was strange how much bureaucracy they had to go through to get a cure skillbook and she was still waiting for her petition to get through since there was no skill shop or adventurers guild in their Dungeon pillar and she was too diligent to leave her post even for a day, making it kind of ridiculous to others, after all she wasn't exactly unreplacable, they could do even without her, but she was rather kind and loved by the soldiers there for that.
There was however a slight problem, she wasn't a birdwoman, she looked more like an Ecclesian angel rather than a birdwoman. Even worse she wore clothes thus losing any status she gained from the naked noble title.
She however didn't mind it as she didn't understand the power of a higher status, many people from our world wouldn't after all monarchy has eclipsed for ages now and although some might compare the members of the parliament with nobles of our age, truth is that the majority of them would have only been low nobility of Axis, higher nobles are like the Milionaires in our world, whom can control the lives of hundreds with one order, while royalty were the prime ministers and presidents, whose one word could cause a war to errupt.
Of course Areti didn't undestand the perks of nobility as she only wanted to help others, she didn't even want to fight in the first place and truth be she didn't have to, she was a healer, she could easily gain HP as long as she healed people.
Her abilities however fell short on the battlefield, how can you heal someone whom lacks a head, how can you heal someone who's drowing in his own blood, how can you heal people of whom only ashes remain.
This was the crux of her depressed state, each time they brough people back to be healed at least a 10% of them died at the transport, meaning the brought corpses back.
She could only hope that her classmates wouldn't end as corpses, although they knew that they would be probably resurrected even if they died, but she still remembered the horror of seeing Mary burn in the phoenix flames.
You might consider all this a waste of your time to read, but in truth this was the last moment of her weak self and the birth of a new herself, one whom would not shrink from battle.
Areti might look like a slightly short teenager, but her she had made up her mind, she wanted to end this madness once and for all and there was only one way to do so, raise her physique and magicality.
By now she had 200points in mentality, she could heal wounds with great might, but that was all she could do, since her physique was too low to enter the battlefield, although she could still become a field medic, but that wouldn't end this conflict any time sooner, although it would save some lives, but in general one person could not change the tides of war, non the less there's always the hope that it does.
That day Areti had a chat with the general of the fort and her army's commanders, her plan was simple, as they talked over the map in front of them.
There were at the moment four armies in the first floor, in truth there wouldn't be a need for them if the nobles went and wiped out all the harpies, after all they were at least talented individuals and this floor was but the first floor, there were no monsters with levels more than 100, other than maybe the red harpies, whom were left to grow stronger.
Of course the majority of the soldiers were common warriors, whom were sent to their death or as the nobles called it, given the chance to gain merit in this war.
Of course being level 200 while everyone else is 100 doesn't make you invincible, thus the nobles were as afraid as the commoners for their lives, but since commoners really needed food to feed their families, they would still recklessly do their duty and get a remuneration from the army upon their deaths, which was at least enough for their families to survive until their children grew, the children would then do the same and there would be a circle of meritorious services, until a talented individual or a noble class appears.
Areti had seen the map before, but she didn't understand why they didn't just destroy the enemy in front of them and then go for the one in the back.
Her plan was rather simple, while the two armies were fighting the Blue Harpies, the other army was the logistics and hers was protecting the fort.
She would move her own army and push the enemy in one wave, ending the first war, thus giving them time for a relief.
Of course the commanders and general were against it, there were reasons for that, but she could see the fear in their eyes, they simply didn't want to go to the frontlines, so she thought.
Well truth was that there were other reasons as well, although their cowardice was the main reason, but the other reasons were also notable, for example, they didn't have any warriors in their fort, most of them were mages and priests, meaning that they would pose little to no effect in aerial battles.
Why, well imagine sending a fireball, there on the ground there is only eight directions to chose when evading, but in the air, there's 26 directions, making it easier to evade attacks, even the wide range ones since they fly too fast for the spell to have a good effect on them.
At the moment Areti was like a capricious child, that wanted everything to go her way, the problem however was that there was a rumor that the red Harpies had betrayed them and sided with their own species, which wouldn't be too surprising.
Her army staying at the fort was a detrimental force that would difuse that danger, if the Harpies suddenly decide to take over the fort, they could attack from two sides, thus the defenders of the fort would have difficulties, thus her army was left there.
Marilena was in charge of the logistics army and Mary was in charge of the battlefront. Of course both of them only visited the fort for a few days and then went on their own businesses, but Areti felt rather useless when there was nothing for her to do.
Thus you can understand that her will to enter the fight didn't stem only from her benovelence and kindness, she also developed a slight inferiority complex due to her being the odd one in their group of angels.
Sinse the generals and commanders disagreed, she took a few loyal to her birdmen and left to go do her thing, sneaking out of the fort and towards the battlefront under the darkness on the night, crawling down the walls, since flying would give them away.
Her troops composition being eight steelwing birdmen, and her pet bird called Silver, whom was also a steelwing bird, a small size bird whose wings were glossy like metal, it had no visible eyes and its head had a hawklike metalic beak, as stated before however it was rather small and could easily stay on her shoulder or more rightly said metalic wing, that hung behind her shoulder.
Of course this was not a wanton action, well it was, but she had a plan, she knew the destination's location, where the armies were and even how she would fight, she wanted to use guerilla tactics, fighting and retreating with a small unit until they can persuade the armies to do a final push, of course till then she hadn't been to the frontlines but how bad could it be, she thought after all it's not like they would be shooting stray bullets everywhere and explosions from cannons.
What she however found was even more shocking as small dots were colliding in the sky and blood and incomplete corpses rained from the sky above, it was a hellish spectacle to behold, especialy in the middle of the night, since it was always night.
But under the light of the moon they could still discern that the viscus liquid that fell from above was blood, the fight lasted only for a few minutes before the dots begun descending with magical lights and begun looking for wounded survivors.

8 72Cannon Fodder Cheat System
At first, when he learned that he was forced to go to many different routine worlds and be reborn into all kinds of cannon fodder, he was against it.Because villains usually all only have a moment of satisfaction, the endings of cannon fodder are also frequently quite miserable.But the man who gave him the system told him that this system not only has all types of powerful functions, but he can also break the routine lives of the cannon fodder. If he achieves this satisfactorily for each world, he can even become a god.He's already experienced over a thousand reincarnations, but hasn't yet been a god. Since it sounds pretty great, why not just try it out.From that moment on, he began the irreversible path of tyrannically oppressing people, while conveniently tearing open those white moonlights and so-called righteous people's hypocritical masks.His goal: wearing the villain's role to walk other people's righteous paths, leaving them no path to follow.--------------------------------------------------[Disclaimer: I DON'T OWN THIS NOVEL, this is for offline reading purposes only.
