《World Master》Chapter 6
Advertisement
I appeared in the jungle just after nightfall, about a 3 miles away from the large city that had been established in at the world portal. I was only wearing pants, due to the fact that tigerkin around here don’t need or want to wear shirts since they live in a tropical climate, and they were often climbing trees anyway, and extra clothing increases the chance of something being snagged. As a tigerkin, I had a tiger’s ears, eyes, tail, and claws. I had the coloration of a golden-furred variant and had made this body a 30-year-old male at level 18, which was a little bit above the average. I was white, since while there were black tigerkin, there were mostly white ones left, due to, you guessed it, racism. While they had stopped killing each other, this group wouldn’t be as helpful if I was black, and their actions weren’t what I wanted to test.
I opened up my stat sheet, preparing to distribute my stats.

The only reasons that I was able to get as many extra skills as I had were due to the synergy between several skills and me accepting them at lowered levels.
With that taken care of, I took off running towards the city just a couple miles away.
* * * * *
Arriving at the main gate on the nearer side of the city, Agrath, he wasn’t surprised to be challenged, as it had become full dark while he was distributing his points.
“What are you called when among friends?” one of the guards called down.
“I’m known as John Pitcher, a Runner and Aura Master, seeking battle in the Arena,” I told them, using my prepared excuse. The Arena was a sporting area, where warriors would battle in a competition event for gold rewards, and the winner of the tournament and the direct runner-up got to meet the king and get important quests from him. I planned on using this to show the people in this tier how they could advance, by going through the process myself and bringing people along so that they could return and share the process. Hopefully, I would eventually make it so that everyone is aware of the ability to ascend.

One of the guards opened the small door and beckoned me forward into the light of his torch. I complied, and he studied my face for a minute before letting me through. On the inside were several wanted posters, showing why he examined me, to see if I was a criminal in a disguise.
“Know of a good place I can stay the night?” I asked
“If you want good food and board for cheap, I would suggest The Wandering Inn. If you want a truly luxurious stay, you can go to the Jade Dragon. It’ll lighten your purse quite a bit, but it is the best place in the city. As a competitor in the Arena, you’ll be given a room in the barracks for the duration of the event.”
“Thanks,” I said, heading into the relatively uncrowded streets, though there were a few people walking about, taking advantage of the racial night vision.

Cultivation Anomaly
Follow the journey of an individual given a classic cheat trope in a cultivation world. What does a man do when he finds himself unsure of who he really is yet is given a cheat? What really happens to a cultivation world when it is overrun by MC level characters? Is the cultivation world just run by cruel young masters, short-sighted elders and uncaring experts? Note: Tags may be removed or added to this story as it progresses. For example, I added the harem tag because I wasn't sure if it would appear so be forewarn. Also, productive feedback is always appreciated even it may be ignored. Note 2: Original idea inspired by "Arrogant Young Master Template A Variation 4". I wanted to do something similar but have a more gritty realistic feel. The system SHOULD differentiate as the story goes on but if it doesn't it means I need a rewrite. Either way, read AYMTV4, it's great. Note 3: If you give criticism to be helpful, please try to be descriptive, specific, and focused on making my story better, not changing the story to how you would write it.

I'm Always Talking to Myself
My name is Zach. I’m a typical bland featureless protagonist type. The kind of guy who has purposefully few defining characteristics so that people can project whatever they want on me. Like Luke from Star Wars or what’s her name from Twilight. Most main characters are like me. Kind of flavorless blank slates because we all secretly doubt that we’re Harrison Ford, but pretty much anyone could be Mitt Romney. Yep. Yes indeed, I do spend basically my entire life running an internal dialog to no one. Usually I’m imagining that there are people listening. Like maybe philosophers from Ancient Greece, or researchers from another planet who act suspiciously like the characters from that Instagram comic with the aliens. Stupid Instagram comedians stealing my internal monologue and turning into a wildly successful enterprise which I would imagine has a vibrant merch dropshipping arm and hundreds of thousands of daily dopamine hits for loyal followers. I basically spend all of my time explaining random things to imaginary people (and aliens, and animals, and household items which have inexplicably gained sentience and frankly have some concerns about this whole existence thing). Honestly, it’s both highly entertaining to me, in that it makes me think about why we humans do all of the bizarre things that we do, but also horrifically exhausting and kind of makes you feel like you’re either, worst cast, losing your grip on reality, or best case, becoming Abed from Community. Anyway, I’m sure that I have some distinguishing characteristics, but, in the interest of hypnotic suggestion I’m choosing to omit them until I’m pretty sure that you have subconsciously come to identify with me, or until I feel like it. (By the way, in case I forgot to mention it, a higher power called Aww Thor or something told me to say that this is a slice-of-life comedy adventure and that it's set in a fantasy world with isekai and LitRPG elements.)
