5... how did I get in this situation?
4... I ask that to much for it to be healthy
3... This time it is the WORST possible situation
2... To late to run, nowhere to hide, nowhere to go. must survive somehow
1...
"Hello class, welcome to your beginner tests. if you score less then 80% your punishment is to go to the Headmasters 'room' however you would have to have been unconscious last week to fail... except you John I'm sure you can handle it" Sir Andrew said looking at me with pity.
"all your questions are different so copying is impossible. So begin" Sir Andrew thus stopped talking and the hourglass started counting down, not very accurate for a measuring tool. however if I look carefully...
[A Skill Has Been Created Through A Special Action: Pocket Watch. from telling the time on a hour glass any object that does not give accurate time for anyone else, does for you. can only be used on one item at a time and displays a digital box showing the precise time shown.]
[58 Minuets Left]
I look at the questions and understand non of them... there has to be a way... best start with question one...
1) What is the 3 requirements for Agil's Law on energy transfusion? how could Agil's Law be improved it be made more efficient for bonus points?
WHAT THE HELL IS AGIL'S LAW???
[Help: Agil was a researcher from 5082 years ago and researched into the depths of transferring energy from one person to another using 3 simple steps, gather energy, transfer energy, collect energy, the process is not very stable however it is essential for transferring energy and was known as Agil's Law or better known as Agil's Law On Energy Transfer]
help? since when did I get help? must have been that update... this should be easy. wait, I need to improve it? hmm??? Well it says it is not stable so may as well test it
I began transferring Mana through the air between my hands
{A Skill Has Been Created Through A Special Action: Mana Transfer (unstable) is able to transfer Mana however for every 10 Mana points only 1 makes it through the transfer}
Best improve that. If I could stabilise it somehow? I best get to work...
(5 Minuets later)
NOTHING??? no mater what I do It wont stabilise. HOW DO I DO IT???
[Hint: energy does not flow well however does it have to move through the air?}
I am going to experiment with these messages later but for now I need to get through this test...

with Hint and Help I am unstoppable MUHAHAHAHAA
"done" Kate said while handing in her test to Sir Andrew and then walked towards the door, then looked at me with worry. ha. she does not know the level of power I have now, HAHAHAAA!!!
"done" said someone sitting in the front row, I did not even notice him until now
[On This World I Stand Alone]
[Level ???]
[???]
No name? That Cant Be Right, Anyone I see I can See the name of. Must have had a rough life. Looks young though so I fear that he may have had a bad childhood.
"done" said Ruby walking out with a smile... Signifying I HAVE TO HURRY.
I start putting all the answers down, the rest were general knowledge questions and before I knew it
"done" I said with a smile heading to the front to hand my work in.
I then leave the room and Head to lunch. I had 30 minuets to spare before the test finishes and The Lunch Rush starts, there is one kid called Adam Richardson who is a bit gamer with a flaw, he needs more energy then normal people thus needs to eat and drink more, a lot more. thus people try to get to the lunch hall before he does, he is in the next class over thus in lessons for 30 more minuets, I think I will eat now rather then regret it later.
"John, come with me" Kate said as she grabbed my head and dragged me off. I do wonder if My vitality will go up, speaking of witch I have yet to look at my status screen.
stats
[Health 1000, Mana 1000]
[Strength 1, Agility 1, Dexterity 1, Vitality 1, Intelligence 1, Wisdom 1, Luck -32, Charm 1, Aura 1]
[Aura: Default (aura is automatically switched depending on emotional state)]
[Skills List...]
Well that is different, WHAT IS WITH THAT HORRIBLE LUCK??? ok It is just like me however it hurts my pride. not as much as my head hurt from getting dragged, hey were in the lunch hall.
"We are here" Kate announced "and we were here first" she continued... wait are you blind as a bat??? no that is offensive, even a bat could see Mr. ??? sitting on the far table eating a burger with chips... This Place did burger and chips? I don't know the bigger problem.
"but isn't he over there..." I said before I felt a dark powerful pressure eating away at the back of my head, I turn to find him but a hair from my face. His face is blacked out except for his eyes, they look, empty?

"Hi, John was it? we need to talk" ??? said to me as he grabbed me by the head.
"No you don't" kate grabbed my by my leg a moment later after Mr ??? started dragging me and I felt myself lose at least half my health.
[Huge amount of damage detected, Auto Pilot has activated, now removing the 2 potential threats]
before I could even think I had already kicked Kate to the other end of the room and Mr ??? had his Leg broken. the tiles beneath my feat shattered Sending the floor tiles shards across the room, then after kicking Mr ??? out of the closest window I then dashed / teleported next to Kate who was getting up with minor injury. no, I cant do this, Kate is my partner so we fight together not against each other.
My foot but moments from sending her head detached from her body. I stop, The Headmaster was there and without the smile he has all the time, his mask this time is frowning.
"Control yourself, What are you doing?" he said, to this I responded something not even I wanted...
"additional threat detected, activating Burst Mode" I said... Auto Pilot said... While I was screaming for every atom of me to stop, If I fought him I would die, and I don't mean die like what happened this morning. I Mean I Will Die For Good.
"What? Oh so you took a lot of damage? explains why Kieran Was sent flying out of the window" The Headmaster said. so his name was Kieran? interesting. But im busy trying not to kill someone I care about.
"Sorry John, consider this payback for this morning" Kate said before kicking me into the dark abyss I go to when unconscious or sleeping. that hurt but at least Kate is ok, I wish Kieran recovers soon as well, I felt my leg break bone and rip muscle, that cant recover quick even with healing magic. guess I am waiting to wake up... row row row your boat, gently down the stream... and so John started to pass the time... Wait I am forgetting something again, If his name is Kieran why does it not display it? is he even stronger then Kate? and if so. why did Kate take less damage then he did?
to many questions to be answered so soon. This all would not have happened if Kate did not grab my leg causing so much damage from nearly having my lower half torn off. Auto Pilot is dangerous. Very strong as I could kick Kate flying and cane even see her level, but it is uncontrollable and I don't have specifics.
Wait, I have a Help and Hint thing. What Are The Specifics Of Auto Pilot
[Help: Auto Pilot is a self defence mechanism that activates in order to prevent death, if this activates it will be in place of death. it looks for threats to John Richardson and Eliminates them, if no threats are detected the backlash kicks in, causing you to return to 1HP. and then you will fall unconscious for 8/9 hours. Auto Pilot time limit is 10 minuets. all stats are multiplied by 1000 in this time. if a hostile is not projecting any aura they will not be seen as a threat]
Oh. that is over powered. wait if thats the case how did the Headmaster block my kick? He did have a new mask on. maybe he wasn't holding back as much as normal. That gives me something to think about. so if it did not activate Kate would have torn me in half...
[Aura Of A Dead Man(active)]
ok, calm down, I didnt die, however it is weird, I still did not increase my vitality.
Options.... Game Settings?... Oh... WHY IS THERE AN OPTION TO FREEZE EXPERIENCE GAIN AND STAT GAIN???
turn on experience gain.
[Impossible, Limiter was placed to prevent this by The Bit Gamer Michael Richardson]
My brother did this? Why... I mean... How??? and to make it impossible, I CALL HACKS!!! wait he may have actually hacked into my gaming ability some how... but why this??? all questions for when I wake up... so much rage. until then ...
John then started experimenting with his options menu trying to remove his brothers limiter. will he succeed? why did his brother place the limiter, who is this mysterious Kieran who cant have his name displayed. and will John ever be able to beat The headmaster. the answers will be told... NOW
The limiter is there when he wakes up
His bro did it because He was told to By the Headmaster
Kieran is Kieran? ok maybe not all answers.
and not a chance in hell...
where did that voice come from??? and what does it mean not a chance in hell???
And we will continue next time on...
narrator off. I will have to keep checking for weird things lake that popping up wont I? damn it... Why must my luck be so low???
