《Blood Evolution System 》Chapter 44: Infirmary
Advertisement
After sitting there and evaluating the performance of the temporary students, Theodore and his juniors came across a lot of talented youngsters belonging to families of different status that managed to score better than Peter.
"Congratulations on passing the second assessment! You've all been rewarded with contribution points equal to your result in this test. You won't be able to use them for now, but they will become useable after you become permanent students," Theodore said once all the students were done with the test of titan's strength. "As it is only a few hours away from midnight, the third and the fourth assessment will be held tomorrow. In the meantime, you can do anything you like. Rest if you want to or take a look around the majestical tower, it's all up to you!"
When the instructor of combat made his announcement, a lot of the examinees exhaled a sigh of relief, some sitting down on the ground with legs crossed, some leaning against the walls with eyes closed, some standing straight seemingly having no intention of resting as they find it beneath them to rest on the ground like the commoners.
"I got 10 contribution points but it's greyed out," a student said as his gaze curiously scrutinized the card held in his hands. "It's like the instructor said, we won't be able to use them until we become permanent students."
"Yeah, you are right. It's the same for us. We have the points but we can't use them."
"It kinda sucks."
The students talked with each other, as the instructors finished the fifth cup of coffee and placed the cup on the wooden table.
"Hey, instructor, can I get a room with a bed? I couldn't sleep a wink last night," a student with a bald head spoke in a rough manner that sounded unpleasant to the ears. His name was Geom 13th or just Geom. One could see an exhausted expression on his face as his legs were sprawled on the floor and his body supported by his arms.

Honestly, it wasn't just him that wanted to lay down on a bed and sleep, a lot of the students that have never once sat down on the ground in their entire life also wanted to get a room for themselves, but they didn't have an ounce of authority in this place and purchasing a room without the help of an authoritative figure impossible in the cloud tower.
Kayle stood up and walked to the front of the raised platform.
"A suite has been assigned to every one of you. The Droids holds the master cards. Get in line with the others or wait in your place to get the master card. Tomorrow, it will be the last day of the examination. You will all be called to gather here early in the morning. So, go and rest early."
Kayle stepped back once she made her announcement and instructor Theodore stepped forward.
"I advise you to not stay up late. Make sure to be in your best state, as your mental and physical health concerns both your placement in the next assessment and allocation of resources provided by the academy to the examinees according to their grades." Theodore gave hints about the upcoming test to the temporary students with a smile.
After he said those words, the instructors took the backdoor to teleport to their respective floors
"One thing is for sure, our mental strength will determine our grade in the next test. I'm looking forward to it," Varth Hollow thought with squinted eyes, as he stepped forward to get in line.
The students stepped out of the room after a while, one by one, by taking the rather large corridor. One could see that a card with cloudy patterns was held in their hands. Once they were in their respective room, they found out that a single room was shared between two examinees.

"Ah, well, whatever. Hey, I don't know who you are and I don't wanna know. If you want there to be peace then just don't disturb me. I only wanna sleep peacefully right now," Geom said to his roommate as he then laid down on the small, soft bed placed on the left side of the room and quickly entered the world of dreams. He was tired and needed to sleep urgently to recuperate his energy and spirit.
The students that shattered their bones were taken to the infirmary. It was located just around the right corner of the examination room. The students were examined by Jun Park–the student of instructor Kayle.
"Hmm, you are fine. However, try not to repeat such stunts in the future. Healing has a certain limit and a day might come when it becomes ineffective on your body. You can delay the inevitable by following what I say," Jun Park said to Nevis Truemight.
"I will do as you say. Thanks for everything that you have done for me," Nevis replied as he looked at Jun with eyes expressing gratitude.
This was one of those times that warms his heart, as well as makes him believe in humanity and love all over again. After all, there weren't a lot of people that showered him with kindness but there were a lot of people that showed the cruelty of the world and the monstrous side of humanity called hatred and jealousy.
"No problem. I was just doing my duty," Jun replied. "The next assessment will be held early in the morning. Until then, you can rest here."
"Thanks once again," Nevis said.
"Call me if you need anything," Jun said as he headed for the terrace. Once he was there, he lit up a cigar, inhaling the smoke with an expression of intoxication and cooly puffing rings of clouds.
A while later, Nevis looked around the room he was in while streaming the aftermath of the test to his viewers, and he saw two others in the room. Except for him, Vincent and Peter were also in the room, laying on the bed, sleeping soundly.

A Titan's Crusade
Erik Thayne spent most of his life being brutally ridiculed and tormented for his weight and physical appearance, among other things. A social pariah and diagnosed with an eating disorder no one has an explanation or treatment for, Erik spent years trying to overcome his issues with his personal image and escape the ridicule and vicious torment of his peers. After years of dedicated effort, and a fresh start in a town away from his childhood and adolescent tormentors, he had finally begun to truly realize what he'd been striving for all along. Only, fate apparently has other plans because in the blink of an eye, Erik found himself snatched from Earth and taken to another universe, another world, where he is offered the chance to be more than he'd ever imagined. Now, he has to fight to restore the Balance between Chaos and Order on a world of swords and magic, in a universe governed by the System's laws, which resemble those of RPGs from Earth. Erik learned to embrace the things about himself that others taught him to hate, using them to reforge his physical identity into something more removed from his old self-loathing. But can he learn to embrace the darkest parts of his mind just as he did the reviled aspects of his body and become who he needs to be to succeed in the task set before him? It might just prove easier to stalk in the dark as a monster than to walk in the light as a man... *This is my first time publishing anything I've written to a public audience. Due to formatting issues, I forwent traditional stat-screens for something a little less problematic, delineating stat screens by separating them from regular text with horizontal lines in a lighter-grey coloration. Let me know if you like them or not. Criticism is entirely welcome, but please don't hate on my work after only reading 1 chapter. This is a writing project I intend to complete but I have committment problems so we'll see how long this goes on. Also, fair warning, as the description implies, the main protagonist is intended to be someone who has been treated cruelly, developed antisocial tendencies, and ultimately has to question his own humanity--or lack thereof. This story is not intended to be brutally dark but I will definitely be trying to follow a darker theme. It is intended to be violent and some scenes later in the story might be...alarming. There will likely also be some light, non-graphic (think more implied with crude jokes and conversation than actual details, there will be no full-blown sex scenes)relationship scenes planned later and if you're opposed to either a bisexual or gay main character, stay away. I haven't yet decided which way he's going to swing but the odds on him being straight are relatively miniscule, and I've always wanted to write a story about a gay man who basically looks like a lumberjack because who doesn't like giving conventional stereo-types the middle finger? This will NOT be a harem story, and I have no intention to focus on romance over action--it's a consequence of character development where I'm concerned, not the be-all-end-all of the story. The cover-art does not, in any way, belong to me. It was an image titled the Druid King (by duskanmarkovic according to the file name) which I found on Google Images. Until I can get something commissioned, this is the best stand-in image I could find.
