《The Records Of Existence》Record 9 Offer
Advertisement
In a night of excitement and joy. As everyone who passed the finals celebrated with parties and loud music. In a certain empty street under the dim moonlight, suppressed by the gloomy atmosphere that lingered around the place.
A man was running for his life as a group of bloodthirsty thugs gave chase, bats and knives in their hands. Fern was slowly losing them and noticed an opportunity. As he turned the corner. He immediately got into a dark alley and hid.
Before he could catch his breath. A set of footsteps came up from behind him. He quickly snapped his head over to look. Two fists clumsily raised above his head.
There was a moment of silence before a mysterious masked figure in a long gray robe appeared from the darkness. "I see you are in quite a predicament." The figure calmly said in a matter of fact tone. Their plain white mask covered their face, but Fern felt like they were smiling at him.
"Who are you? What do you want from me?" He asked cautiously. Uncertain about the situation he found himself in. "You do not need to know that. The only thing you should know is that I have an offer you cannot refuse." The figure calmly answered. Their indifference was making him even more vigilant.
Fern asked again. "What offer? What did those people want from me?" The unknown entity laughed. And its voice echoed through the alleyway. Almost deafening him. "Like I said. You do not need to know. You won't remember this in any way. Your memory will be altered to prevent a group of certain powerful people there from noticing our interference. Hmm... Let's say you fell off the balcony! Now accept my offer. I will grant you a second chance at life. In a new world where everything about you will change. Whenever for better or worse."

Fern stood there in silence. Knowing full well the figure was right. He had no other choice but to accept the offer. He questioned one last time. "...what's the price?" The unknown creature froze. Before its mask suddenly contorted into a wide smile. "I truly chose the right one. The answer to your question? You must lose your Purity."
Then it instantly disappeared from the alley. Leaving Fern alone in the dark once more. He muttered. "My Purity? What does that mean..." He felt his vision blur as his legs gave out. Then he fell forward. His head hitting the concrete floor with a sickening crush. The last thing he saw was a grinning mask on the ground.

The Way Ahead
What do you do when you don't fit in? Edwin never really felt many connections to other people, but as a physics student, that was fine. He didn't really need it, anyway. He was content to peel back the mysteries of the universe... not that there were many left to find. Modern-day research was just too well-established, too well-trodden for any single enthusiast to make any significant headway. But that doesn't apply to other worlds. Not ones where magic and Skills run rampant, where well-defined roles and Classes dominate much of society with little room for novel experimentation from its residents. That kind of world would be perfect for an overeager, newly-minted Alchemist to make his mark. Things are never that easy, though. The Way Ahead is a very slice-of-life story following the story of someone trying to find his place in a world that doesn't know what to do with him. Expect lots of science, lots of alchemy, a few sarcastic quips by the System, and lots of exploration involving the world, self-discovery, and above all, science. After all, further research is always required. Updates every other day at 9 AM PST. Congratulations! For writing a story during the month of November, you have unlocked the Royal Road Writathon Participant path!
