《Why am I a machine of war?》Reading and More Reading

*ding*
Multiple different documents appeared ranging on how BT-5 work and example of data needed to be extracted from each report.
So… More paperwork.
I thought at least after I got reincarnated, I will at least be freed from any paperwork.
I understand if I don’t get any fancy system.
But at least give me a GUI like those in the manhwa or manga I used to read.
I don’t even get anything except a small book icon at the top right corner of my vision and a blank map at my bottom right.
The book only opens a convoluted place with sections for documents, reports, and a research facility, with one of it scattered with paper, another is empty and the last filled with vehicles where I don’t even know where to start with.
There isn’t any sound effect created by the notification.
Just some kind of silent mental alert.
Now, I don’t know how long did it took for me to get my vision, but it would probably take me a week at least to move.
Well… At least it's better than some “Isekai” that I’ve read where they have it worse.
*ding*
A single paper appeared with only 1 sentence.
“You’re required to fill your progress [if there are any] and submit it to be reviewed and archived for future reference”
So, now I am required to write a diary.
Sigh, more unnecessary work.
So… Hello there, whoever you are, to my new life as a so-called machine of war. For the next few days? Weeks? Months?
You would probably not find anything interesting.
It’s just me with tons of paper.
…
…
…
This will be boring.
…
…
…
Wait, where do all these documents come from though ...
These data are probably from earth but who processed it and where do they store it.

“The Library” document appeared within the messy pile of paper.
The instructions on the cover of the document are as follows: -
-----------------------------------------------
To access “The Library”, open this document.
To leave, close this document or open the menu.
-----------------------------------------------
Well, at least this is more interesting.
I opened the paper and my view was transported to a place with two parallel walls made of bookcases that extended towards infinity on the X and Y-axis.
The bookcase is filled with books. This situation seems familiar…
Ah, it’s that library from that short story made by that Argentine author. An infinite library with all possible books that had existed, now exists, and will exist. I’ve been to a website that tried to recreate it so this should be the same as that.
I grab the nearest book to read its cover and content to confirm my speculation. The books and cover are filled with jumbled-up alphabets from tons of different languages. None of it creates a single comprehensible sentence nor a word.
It seemed that there should be more possibility of books available than the original, so it will be harder to find anything here. Except if there is some sort of sorting system that can help me find stuff.
As if the system is listening to my thought, an extension to the “The Library” document is unlocked. A simple search system. Well, I would rather describe it as just a framework of a search algorithm than search system. A manual that is a couple thousands of sentences long, on how to create a search algorithm was attached to the framework.
I could probably try to use the basic search engine framework to separate only books with comprehensible words.
Luckily for me, it separated from an infinite number of books, to a measly number of books which is around 10∞-10∞ - x, if not more. At least I can read any language easily as if it was my native language. But I still don’t know how to write nor speak any of it. Following the pattern of events, there should be a folder filled with documentation of each language.

Probably with increasing difficulty so that I can speed run it and take it similar to a crash course.
Now, I got another project at hand to complete with a long list of things that I want to do and need to do.
Well, I should probably not get too of track and focus on learning the mechanism of a Bt-5 tank so that I can move. After that I need to learn how to use the main gun and auxiliary weapon. I could probably do everything else while getting use to my new “body”.

Jack is intimately familiar with these terms from years of playing games, so he is shocked and excited when the entire world is integrated into a system governed by those elements.

Blue Mage MC who learns skills from monsters. Skills are not intuitively known and must be trained to be able to use properly. This is not a rapid rise to power story. It's more of a pseudo-Isekai. As the setting quickly changes to a Fantasy one. (with elements of steampunk and sci-fi but not until much later) The story does not get very adventure-y until chapter 17.

The Chronicle of a Witch
It is a story about a young girl that abruptly transmigrated into the body of another young girl (at least in appearance) in another world filled with Magic. She notices that she becomes a Dungeon Master and for a thousand years... she lives a lazy life. However, one day, she lost all of her power and she is kicked out of her Dungeon! And the world's changed that video games level and classes governed the power system of the new world! What will she do as a weak and fragile girl? Will she get her power back? How will she survive in the harsh world? Author's note: I will update daily if possible and each chapter is around 2,000 words. Gores, Sexual Contents, and Traumatising Contents are limited and I try my best not to write them. However, for the progress of the story, I can't help but write some of them in the latter part of the story. However, don't expect them too much ^_^ English is not my native language, so there might be grammatical errors (maybe a lot), but I'll try to fix them, so constructive critiques will be appreciated (^_^)

The Paths of Magick
Credits: Story by Xcaliburnt. Cover Art by @Bervolart. Magick, the power to bend the laws of reality. All because of a mystical substance known as mana. Mages follow the Paths to achieve power, for there is no more addictive chase. Each Path winds and twists, forcing mages through the flames of adversity and challenge. Though the operative word is "path", the reality is far less straightforward. Instead of a road, Paths are like the branches of world trees, erupting into the heavens, intertwining, and ending in sharp snaps. Only the strongest reach the sky. There are several Paths, and many Ways to walk them—variations of the same Path, and like the stars, they are endless. Magick is the sacred flame that scours the fat, rendering the truest self. Superfluous flesh melting away to show the skeleton of one's being. A chance for ascension—apotheosis. Though not every mage works to godhood, if they survive long enough, It is inescapable. Witness the lives of those that tread the knife's edge of self-destruction. Each one intertwined in their search for answers, revenge, and, most of all: power. These individuals have all lost something precious—irreplaceable—and In search of filling the void left behind, they have taken up the mantle of a mage. Per aspera ad astra. Ad mortem vel divinitatis. (Through adversity to the stars. To death or divinity.) There is no consistent release schedule except my consistent inconsistency. Besides, there’s like a thousand pages worth of content, how can—you already read it? Goddamn. Oh, and there is a very long hiatus between volumes as I intend to edit and rewrite a lot. What to Expect: This story is progression fantasy, so expect a healthy dose of training. It's also heavy on slice of life, and it isn't entirely overarching-plot-driven. Expect characters to live their lives, and not always be on some quest to save the world. There's a lot of magic theory and discussion about it in the story. So, if you don't like impromptu lessons on sorcerous theory by traveling monster slayers, this might not be for you. But if you do like it, rejoice! For there is a lot of it. This is also heavy on prose, purple as a bruised eye. I use outdated, uneccesarily collegiate-level terms and play around with the writing style just for the heck of it. I find it fun to wax and wane poetic, and that might grate on you—I don’t plan to change this aspect of the Paths much if at all. Onto the viewer discretion is advised parts: This is grim-dark/ grim-heart. Take the tags seriously. There will be combat scenes that are brutal and horrifying. Fights to the death tend to be. This is a tale about medieval mercenaries (quite literal killers for hire), man-eating monsters, and eldritch gods beyond the material plane. Beside that, there will be traumatic events that are best left unread. I do not detail certain acts I find heinous enough, instead leaving some parts unwritten but still alludded to if not outright stated; there is simply no graphic narration thereof. This is not for the faint of heart.
