《Izuku's leveling system. [On Hiatus]》The Truth and the Secrets.
Advertisement
(Izuku narrating)
"We all live in a superhuman society, where 80% of the population possesses some kind of superpower. "
"It all started with a boy that radiated light, and then, reports of people with superpowers kept popping up from all around the world. "
"But that wasn't all, with the powers, also came these wormhole-like gates called 'dungeon', that linked our world together with some other world. "
(Kinda like these)
"Once a gate appears, people are able to freely enter and exit it. But after 7 days, the things inside the dungeon could also leave the gate and come into the outside world."
"And what came outside wasn't anything good. There were all sorts of monsters like orcs, ogres, ants, goblins, and all the other creatures and monsters from various fantasy tales."
"The only way one could close off a gate is by finding and defeating the boss of the dungeon hidden inside."
"The difficulty and the intensity of the dungeon could be detected using a device known as the 'gate scanner'. The gates are then ranked from the weakest 'E' then moving onwards with 'D', 'C', 'B', 'A' and finally 'S'. "
"And those who took the responsibility of taking care of these gates as well as the villains outside were known as heroes. They were also ranked from 'E' to 'S' after assessing their total strength and performance."
"There was this one unwritten law here. 'Nobody knows what happens inside of a dungeon'. This was because whenever someone went inside a dungeon, they would always return either covered in blood, or injured."
"No one's dead body ever came back because after the death of the boss, the gate would only remain open for about 30 minutes."
"No one knew what happened to those left inside after the gate closed. My father was one of them. He had went into a dungeon but he didn't come back."

"Me and my mom had been living on the paycheck we recieved as compensation after we had lost him. But before leaving, he gave my mom a daughter and me a sister. "
"The government had officially sanctioned an agency to look after and maintain the clearing and blocking of the nearby area around a dungeon to the association of heroes so that people do not enter gates unchecked and cause deaths. "
"The hero whom I was the greatest fan of was the S-rank hero, all might. It was his debut that struck me the most, It was after a gate had opened and monsters started rampaging around and causing destruction everywhere . Even though everyone was scared and troubled, he came through and saved everyone and defeated the monsters and the boss within minutes. "
"I watched his videos everyday, and I wanted to have a power just like him and then be a hero just like him"
"Until... "

(Third person perspective)
"Nope kid, it ain't gonna happen." Said the doctor to izuku.
"Is there really no chance doctor, all his classmates are getting their quirks, it is only izuku who hasn't gotten any. " Said izuku's mom.
"And he won't get one either. You see, I ran him through the scanner and it sensed him to have little to no quirk power. So I hate to say it to you, but if he tries to be a hero with this power, forget about the gates, he would die even if he tried to protect the streets. " Said the doctor.
---------------(Back at home)-----------------
(Izuku's point of view)
After reaching home, I didn't talk at all, I was completely silent. I just went back, sat on my chair and began watching the video of all might. Tears silently dripping from my face, but still smiling.

" He's such a cool hero mom, he always saves everyone with a smile. Can.. I.."
After a while, my mom came into mt room to look at me. I turned back, tears still running down my face, and asked my mom,
"M-m-m-mom, can I-i-i A-a-a-also become a H-H-H-Hero like him? " And tears started running down my face.
My mom just came and hugged me tightly, she was also crying, and said to me,
"I'm sorry izuku, I'm really sorry. "
Mom, that day, those weren't the words I wanted to hear.
-------------(Few years later)----------------
(Currently izuku is 12 years old, his sister is 10 years old)
(Izuku's point of view)
After my sister izumi and I's school had finished, I took my sister together with me and was walking home.
"Izuku onii-chan, what do you think mom would have made for lunch today. " She said.
"I think she might have made your favorite Omurice today Izumi. "
"Waahh!!! I love Omurice sooo... much.
🎵Omu-rice, Omu-rice, Rice-rice-rice🎵"
She began singing while jumping around.
After reaching home, I saw that there were some people in suits around the building...
"Ahh kid, is this your home, I am here from the Hero Association.
I don't know how to say it to you, but something has happened to your mother.." Said one of the guy in the suits to me.

Mother of Learning
Zorian is a teenage mage of humble birth and slightly above-average skill, attending his third year of education at Cyoria's magical academy. He is a driven and irritable young man, consumed by a desire to ensure his own future and free himself of the influence of his family, whom he resents for favoring his brothers over him. Consequently, he has no time for pointless distractions or paying attention to other people's problems. As it happens, time is something he is about to get plenty of. On the eve of the Cyoria's annual summer festival, he is killed and brought back to the beginning of the month, just before he was about to take a train to Cyoria. Suddenly trapped in a time loop with no clear end or exit, Zorian will have to look both within and without to unravel the mystery before him. And he does have to unravel it, for the time loop hadn't been made for his sake and dangers lurk everywhere... Repetition is the mother of learning, but Zorian will have to first make sure he survives to try again - in a world of magic, even a time traveler isn't safe from those who wish him ill. ********************************** If anyone is interested, I have a story-related worldbuilding site that can be found here. I don't update it as often as I should, but there is a fair amount of content there already. It also contains a page with all the fanart, fan translations, audio books and the like - you can reach it directly by clicking this link. I have a patreon account for those kind people that want to give me money. It also contains info for those who want to donate via paypal. The story was originally posted on fictionpress, back in 2011. When I reached chapter 91, I started uploading the story to RoyalRoad, one chapter per day. The story will continue to be updated on fictionpress as well as here, and can be reached by clicking on this link if somebody is interested, though at this point there is nothing there that isn't also on RoyalRoad. ********************************** The cover you see on the side has been made by a fellow RoyalRoad user Sydorow. Thank you for your time and art skills.
