"Hey look, its him" the surroundings muttered.
A certain rabbit girl clinged onto the hand of the individual in question, as they walked down the hallway in school.
"Isn't he the brother of that guy?"
The noisy surroundings continued.
"Yeah, its him right? No way! I mean, he doesn't look like..."
"Looks can be deciving"
"But..."
Benedict ignored the pointless banter in his surroundings, as he walked towards the target destination. The Principal's office.
*Thud*
Benedict knocked against the wooden door gently.
"Come in" a stern and yet warm voice embraced him from the other side.
As the door swung open, a young man stood by the side of his office table, his hands were behind his back, as his manly mustache accents the manuscline look of his face.
"I'm sure you know what you've been called here for right?" the man sat down at a sofa facing a table, they were all long in nature, and the red and premium sofa had a sort of elegance to it.
"Come on, sit down" the principal beckoned Benedict onto the other side.
Taking a seat, Benedict nodded his head.
"Well you see Benedict, you have always been an outstanding student...perfect grades...looks, and even combat ability but you see...."
"I understand" Benedict cut in.
"I see, then so, as of today....I will have to...."
"I'll leave the school , its fine" Benedict acknowledged.
"Stop cutting into my words! Jeez, young people nowadays! I will have to send you to a different school under my reccommendation, you are free to choose all available electives of course..." the principal looked towards Benedict.
"Thanks, but...no thanks" Benedict refused.
"I've been thinking a lot lately you see, and I think, I might just want to see this world abit." Benedict announced.
"A...are you sure?" the principal asked once again.
"Yes" Benedict affirmed.
"Well...now...though it hurts my pride a little, I do respect your decision." the principal nodded his head.
"Thanks" Benedict replied, as he left the room.
"Attention all residence, the mass murderer is still out on the loose, please be careful on your way home" a system regulated announcement came from a nearby speaker, as Benedict got out from the teleporter near his residence.
"Hey Benedict, what are you going to do now?" Usagi who was clinging onto his arm lightly nudged against him.
"I'm thinking of becoming an adventurer. What do you think?" he smiled, as he petted Usagi on the head.

"And you can also search for him as well right?" Usagi poked at his hidden agenda.
To that, Benedict lightly smiled.
"Well, there's that too, but I believe in him" he replied to her gently.
The two held hands, as the couple entered the small apartment building where they call home.
They didn't need to open the door, as there were already people inside.
Risha, Mitsuha, Michelle, Titania and a dozen of investigators in blue uniform.
"The house is clear, there are not even any remains of his fingerprint, or even a strand of hair." the investigators reported to one that appeared to be the superior.
"Alright, move out" he announced at the notification.
"See, I told you, I wouldn't even miss a single strand of his hair!" Michelle taunted the group of officers that left. The red haired busty girl pointed her finger inappropriately as the investigators left.
"What does this mean?" Titania followed suit by showing her middle finger to the others.
"Its an insult" Risha told her nicely.
"Oh" Titania replied, while keeping her middle finger pointed.
"Where did he go?" Michelle wondered, as her information gathering even as a goddess of studies had failed her once again. There was simply no possible paths that he could have went to based on the circumstances, and in all likelyhood, he must have went out of the city already.
"So guys, I'm thinking of becoming an adventurer." Benedict broke his news.
"And I'm going to study under the same master as Issabell (duchess)" Mitsuha similiarly told them.
"Risha, do you want to come along?" Mitsuha offered her.
After all, she came along as she was now because of her brother's actions.
However, Risha shook her head.
"I'm going to finish the moon rabbit ritual and pay pilgrimage" she answered.
All in all, everyone appeared to be going on their own ways.
"and...I'm going to find Dominic" Michelle declared. Her eyes had a strange glint in them, as some sort of relentless energy appeared to glow from her.
"So...I guess I'll eat and sleep all I want here!" Titania declared as well.
"You're comming with me" Michelle told her. Her smiling face couldn't hide her eyes that tells a different story.
Michelle's eyebags were clearly visible, as he wobbly feet carried on her burning energy. 2 weeks. That was how long she hadn't slept. And also the same amount of time that incident happened.
2months ago..Dominic POV
I was skipping lessons as usual once again, and here I was, looking at some giant mess of disgusting 3D art. I call it disgusting, as the illusion magic used this time was so thick it looked like a 3 year old had colored the whole thing. I mean, how could THIS possibly pass off as an illusion to others? Do they not see anything wrong with this?
Advertisement
The staircase leading to the bottom had been completely camoflauged by this disgusting junk, and it looks like alot of grafiti has been drawn around as well.
Touching the mess of mixture of colors, I found out that it felt somewhat solid as well.
So I broke it.
It looked so disgusting I would break it anyways.
The staircase seemed to lead down to the basement. Who knew? The school had a basement. Well, considering each classroom had a special training hall on its own, this much wasn't exactly suprising.
"Whoese there??" a voice sort of hissed?
I walked down, and saw a giant group of devils.
Seriously? What's with them and underground things? Then again, people have their own strange fetishes, im not one to judge~
The devils all wore school uniforms and were cloaked in magic as they seemed to be drawing some sort of massive magic circle? Carving it against the floor, as a person who had the sign of a pentagram and a star seemed to command them and point to me.
Come to think of it, doesn't that sign look oddly familiar?
Oh right..
I think I saw it a few times, when....
Opps. Nearly got hit there. Not like it mattered, but its a bother to walk all the way to the school store to buy the uniform again.
I slapped away the devil charging at me. He flew towards the guy with the familiar looking symbol, and the both of them were sent to the ground...well the devil's head had flown out though. No idea why devils are so fragile.
"Die!" I hear the devils shout.
This is self defense, not like that actually mattered, but not being charged for murder in this city would be nice.
"SUMMON THE HELL TRAIN! NOW!" I heard another person with the symbol shout, actually come to think of it, all of them seem to have the symbol somewhere on their bodies.
I notice a devil's body without its head squirm around in search for its head. Their like cockroaches, resiliant and hated.
The magic circle started glowing.
I guess this was a bad situation?
So I tried pulling out their heads one by one. At the same time, I decided to create small cracks here and there in the magic circle.
I guess this might seem to happen in an instant to them?
Walking out back to where the stairs was, the magic circle's glow died off, as the heads of the devils were rolling on the floor.
Actually, do they die? How do I kill them?
I took a head from the floor and completely crush it.
The body stopped moving.
Oohh.
This was a new discovery. If I completely crushed the head of a devil, it will stop moving.
I noticed that the person shouting commands was actually the headmaster.
I see nanobots gather around in the air.
Then, their small cameras started flashing.
Could they have entered because I broke the magic barrier thingy?
As I left the basement, I notice a picture of my face all over the systemnet.
"Student kills whole class and headmaster in cold blood" was the title of the article.
Now then, what is this?
"Come out with your hands in the air, we have you surrounded!" I hear a cliche line resonating through the school. The declaration sounded around the school again and again.
Whoever they were calling should hurry up soon, as they threatened to use bombs.
Looking around, no one was around.
"Dominic, this is it for you!"
Oh, so they were calling for me.
And then, a bright light annoyed me.
It appears that they may have mistaken me for a murderer or something, as I red the news on the giant screens around the city as I ran past.
I guess, I'll come back when my name is cleared after they see that it was devils?
A few weeks had passed, and since I was still branded a murderer I think I'll be going on a journey. I left a note explaining to my siblings back at home when I went back to get some clothes. So i guess its fine. Maybe I'll come back and find them after they finish school or something. It was getting boring in that city after all~
THE NOTE
I killed devils who were attacking me. They were summoning a hell train thingy(?). Headmaster is a devil as well. Food is in the refrigerator.
People with the mark of a pentagram and a star.

Far Strider
A college student finds himself transported into a strange land with burgeoning magical powers, and is taken in by Ned Stark. Will he sink or swim in this medieval society, and will he ever get home? ====================== OC-insert without knowledge of Game of Thrones, new planeswalker. Slow power ramp. Second crossover: Star Wars (around chapter 39). ======================= As a note, I started this as a speed writing challenge to myself. The challenge was successful, and I managed 100,000+ words (as well as some character sheets in excel and such) over 10.5 days. Then I had to stop and let my hands recover from their burgeoning carpal tunnel syndrome. The story currently stands at around 150,000 words (or ~550 RRL pages) over 54 chapters; expect a chapter a day until I've caught up with the backlog. The focus of this story was not quality writing, and that hasn't changed. I mostly use it as my semi-guilty "I need to write something, but am not focused enough to write something good" story. Expect self-indulgent writing in general, and a bit of OP (or, well, more than just a bit if we're being honest), especially later in the story as the protagonist matures into a more full-blown Planeswalker. But if you're looking for something with a power-ramping protagonist romping around the place, something you'd be a bit embarrassed to admit liking (I know I am) but like anyways (and come on, this is RRL, so that probably describes just about everyone here who actually has shame), then this may be a nice bit of mental junk food for you.

Settlement of Safehaven - A Hearthtree Series
"Welcome to the ECS Asgard, your ride through the stars to your new home-" Or so goes the sales spiel of this one of four and first-produced colonization ship, a spiel meant to placate the portions of humanity who would be selected for such a journey through the stars. It was meant to be a simple thing; people would sleep in hibernation or stasis, to experience their lives within the virtual reality world which kept their minds occupied. The virtual world was meant to simulate a fantasy world of Viking or Roman lore. But not all with this virtual world was fine; nor were the humans who were selected for its maiden and only voyage. One colonist lost everything dear to him, but through his pain and torment, he gained the attention of the colony ship's AI.

Dragons of Dark Rebellion in A World of Essence
In a world where cultivation is the highest form of virtue, the purity of one’s blood is of absolute value. Saul is neither Arloni, nor Delcairan. He’s both. But when a strange ring suddenly falls into his hands, nineteen year old Saul is more than willing to push the boundary between fantasy and reality.

Or will they struggle against fate and seize the future with their own hands? Tomorrow remains uncertain. But the Sun will show them the way. Author's Note: Inspired by the Wuxia/Xianxia genre the magic system is comprised of cultivating through different Worlds of power, where each World offers more strength and abilities. Currently there are five Worlds known: Essence Practitioner, Essence Channeler, Essence Warrior, Essence Conquerer, and finally Essence Ruler. (And for the best reading experience I recomend altering your width setting to about 70 or 80 percent on desktop.) Table of Contents: Prologue Part 1: Homecoming (chapters 1-12) Part 2: Journey (chapters 13-25) About 70 percent complete. I'll update this figure over time and begin posting again after I finish it and go through several rounds of editing.
