《Modern Armaments in Isekai Fantasy》Chapter 1: Unfortunate Son

March 20XX
Maryland, US
It's a beautiful day outside, spring has officially arrived and with it is the excitement of people. Various plans were made as they look forward to going outside to enjoy the warmth of the sun, wear light and comfortable clothes, and just bask in all of spring's glory...........If it weren't for the sudden Blizzard that came from nowhere. Many people agonized at their bad luck and cursed the heavens for taking away their long awaited warmth.
One person in particular is having it rougher than the others, this man is Arnold Richardson. He is a 23-year old college student with an average build, standing at 182 cm with short brown hair and green eyes. He was just on his way back from the convenience store and can't wait to do the same thing he always did on the weekends like watching mainstream anime, playing RTS game, and even watching history channel back when they actually show real history. But with the unexpected turn of events, he can't help but curse as his day of leisure suddenly turned to survival.
"Shit! Shit! Shit! Where the hell did this blizzard come from! Why did it have to come today of all days! Fuck, I need to get home quickly before I freeze my ass off." Arnold says as he quickens his speed to his apartment 6 blocks away through this freezing blizzard. It didn't help that he was only wearing a t-shirt and cargo shorts which made more exposed to the elements.
After countess minutes passed, which felt like an eternity to Arnold, he finally saw his apartment in the distance. Just as hope begins to fill him, a bright flash occurred, followed by a loud bang then crack. The next thing Arnold saw after the flash was darkness.

Moments later, after an unknown time, Arnold feels a floating-like sensation in his body and suddenly opens his eyes. What greeted him was a vast expanse of white everywhere with no end in sight. Confusion, fear, and shock were running in his head as he tried to recall what happened before ending up this desolate white void when suddenly, he saw a transparent screen in front of him that popped out of nowhere and it are words that are written. Curious, he went to see what was written in it.
[Hello there, my child. If you are reading then I am regretful to inform you that have perished due to my mistake which caused a lightning bolt to strike you from where you stood. This resulted to your soul being taken away from the cycle of reincarnation in your universe and would ultimately lead to your Doom had it not been for my intervention. As compensation, I will bestow upon you the chance to be reincarnated in another world, a world of fantasy and fiction where its level is the same as that of the medieval ages in your previous world. This is because your universe now rejects your soul and is no longer allowed to exist without being destroyed. As a sign of goodwill, I shall also grant you an ability of your own choosing that will help you live in the new world. If you have decided on the ability that you want, you can type it here and you will be sent on your way:
________________________________
-GOD]
".... *hyperventilating* No way, No fuckin’ way this is actually happening! I died? I died by mistake, by God at that. Reincarnation, like what I've read on various animes and fanfics? This is too suspicious and too good to be true! What do I do? What will happen now?..." As Arnold was acting hysterical from seeing things that he usually see in fiction, he finally managed to calm down after half an hour and confirming that he wasn't hallucinating or dreaming or being set up by someone on Youtube.

"Shit, this is actually real. Being sent to a fantasy world like in isekai style? I can't help but be excited but also scared shitless, if it was what Tolkien and anime has shown then that world is definitely not as safe as Earth is. I need to choose my ability carefully if I want to live long. " Arnold mused as he accepted his fate.
"If this world's level is the same as the medieval ages, then it also means it was dangerous and as dirty as it sounds from history. I don't think I can tolerate it for long if I don't have the comfort of modern technology. And fighting with swords against some knight bastard or some Merlin wannabe is a big no-no for me, I'd rather fight them where they can't reach me. I also don't like that I'm alone with no one to help me the moment I step into this world. Hnnnngghh, what should I do?" said Arnold as he racked his brain the hardest in his entire life.
After thinking again and again, Arnold finally decided on an ability that he wants "I got it! I want the ability to create and summon all modern technology in my world and people that use them to help me survive in this world! That way I can have a fighting chance and not be on my own against this world."
With this Arnold decided to type his chosen ability on the screen where a keyboard suddenly showed up when he went near it.
[Ability to summon Modern Technology, Resources, Munitions, Facilities, and Loyal People needed to establish a modern country.
Confirm Ability?
YES / NO]
As Arnold clicked on yes, he suddenly received a warning from the screen.
[ERROR!]
||WARNING! DUE TO INSERTING MORE THAN 1 ABILITY, SEVERAL RESTRICTIONS HAVE BEEN APPLIED TO COUNTERACT THE EXCESS ABILITIES. DO WOU WISH TO CONTINUE?||
"What? Restriction? Can I know what they are?" asked Arnold at the important announcement.
[Negative, restrictions can only be known once ability is created.]
"Oh, come on! That sounded like a big deal, at least show some of it," as Arnold insisted again and again to no luck he finally gave up and decided to accept "Let's hope this doesn't bite me in the balls."
*click*
As Arnold confirmed it he was surrounded by a bright light again, this time it's not trying to kill him
[I bid you farewell and wish you luck on your journey, young Arnold. Please accept my apologies once again for your misfortune and know that I will always be watching you.]
Arnold heard the final words of God before he was sent to another world.
'I will definitely survive and live as I want when I get there.' were Arnold's final thoughts as his journey to another world started.

The Rig Mechanist’s Maintenance Report
More than a generation had passed since the creation of a new type of weapon, one that outclassed anything else, but the creator put limits on the technology to prevent it from being used in aggressive combat. With the powerful humanoid weapons, rigs, there to stop battles from breaking out, new ways of taking land had to be developed. That led to the sport of rig combat; powerful weapons pitted against each other with countries betting land and resources on the outcome. But it wasn't just the machines and pilots that competed; the workers that ensured the rigs were able to fight had battles of their own. A mechanist's fight begins before the first shot is fired and their minds are their best weapons.

Gina the goblin, Dungeon Extraordinaire
Goburi was a goblin, a very poor goblin and now that she was dying that meant one thing, she could not even pay the toll to cross into the afterlife. Goblins worshipped gold, gold watched over them and Goburi had never earned or lost a mote, finding herself to be something of a heritic. Like most descisions in life it had felt like the nobler pursuit at the time, but with the darkness closing in, she realized how terrified she was. Even if she had died in debt, the great elusive glimmer in the depths would have put her soul in a new body, bringing with her the debt and some vague memories. Another chance to die in the black. Goburi's last thoughts were dark specters of regret chasing themselves in circles of thought until she prayed for it to be done. She really had no idea where the souls of goblin heritics went, it had never really happened before. A new dungeon was born, a crystal of pure magic containing a soul that failed to pass to the afterlife. As it gained awareness something else came through that was never supposed to be there. Memories of a workshop, and an uncomfortable need to earn gold.

No Strings Attached [Rewritten]
Warning Just so you know, you better be paying attention to the chapter title or else it's going to be like travelling across multiverses. Explanation Due to a single comment made by a wonderful person, or some douchebag in real life, I have decided to create two seperate stories. A rewritten version, and the original version. The rewritten version will somewhat follow the original storyline of the original version, but will have extra content, extra side stories of course rewritten personalities. The original one will be like a rough draft of where I want the story to go. Like for instance, the original story is like the first Link from 'Legend of Zelda', choppy but fun to read. The rewritten story is the Link from any game during and after Windwaker, smooth and somewhat follows the main premise. Overall both are going to be probably terribly done but hey, I'm creating a furture and past story so what should you expect. - Styx Whatever just put up the revised description. - Ariel Edited Summary Jay W. Blu, a dashing and charming rich boy who's been spoiled his whole life. He is very cocky, has a case of egomania and isn't exactly what you call a 'Relatable Main character', unless you somehow fit one of these descriptions and then relate all you want. He had everything you would probably want if you weren't pessimistic, realistic, or chronically depressed. But as most reincarnation/summoning stories go, he get's himself killed at whatever age he was and is sent to another world. Normally, he would be summoned as something you would call a hero, but since that's to cliche by my standards he is something else. Instead of being the hero of the people that he was told about by a friend, he instead summoned as the anti-hero aka, 'The Hero of Demons'. Now he must traverse the lands slaying opposing heroes as he tries to keep his mind straight, although it's to late. There will be weird people along the journey like a fangirling war general, a hive mind and a manly magical girl? Oh well, Jay is too pure to see love anyways.
