《Revival of Undead King》Evan part 1
Advertisement
Present time.
In the far east of Aproxi, there is a kingdom known as the Noguard kingdom. Near the border to the west, lies a small village called Ovuca where a young man lives. He got white hair and blue eyes. His body is straight and he had big muscles. With his handsome face covered by dirt and sweat, he is clearly attracting wild imagination. He was holding an axe with his both hands, a sharp axe that had been used many times and sharpened a countless amount of times.
He raises the axe and swings it towards the log in front of him. The axe split the log into two but it’s not a clean cut.
“Good, finally, after countless tries. You managed to hit the log.” a man in his thirties sighs and walks up to the man with white hair.
The white haired man only laughed as he pulled out the axe from the log, and then gave it to the other man.
“Thank you uncle Crim, I'm not good for nothing after all.” he laughed.
“Haha.... Well, even though it’s not a clean cut yet. You've done well Evan.” uncle Crim patted Evan’s shoulder with a smile.
“Now, let me do the rest.”
“No uncle, I can-”
“Sheesh, it’s already noon. Sorry, but I need to get this work done fast.”
Crim took over the role as a woodcutter and split the other log cleanly. It’s a clear gap between amateur and expert. But Evan is not your ordinary amateur. He is the one who got the title ‘Good for nothing’.
Evan got the title because he would always fail countless times while doing something. Like cutting the log, he has already tried doing it more than one hundred times but only one hit succeeded. Some people said that he is a very slow learner but that is not the case for Evan.

His mind is always disturbed whenever he is doing something and has a hard time doing it correctly. He can’t explain what it is that disturbed him. But there is one thing that he is good at. That is fighting. Evan is a natural born fighter. He once brawled with his father and he managed to corner his father who is the strongest man in the village. When he fought, his mind didn’t get any disturbance but rather it’s clear like the stream of a river.
Evan is fifteen years old but his body is far more developed than the average fifteen-year-old body. He looks more like an eighteen-year-old man than a fifteen-year-old boy. Evan is the only son and child of Oswald and Katrina. Oswald is the hunter and the strongest man in this village. His job is to protect the village from wild animals and hunt them down. While his mother, Katrina, is one of the prima donnas in this village. She is beautiful and her trait was inherited to Evan.
Evan possessed the good physical abilities of his father and the handsome face of his mother. But the only things that only he got are his white hair and his blue eyes. His father got brown hair just like his mother. Oswald has black eyes and Katrina has green eyes. Evan was considered as a unique one.
“Haa.... Nothing to do.” Evan sighed as he was walking home. Evan wants his day filled with working but due to his reputation, no one is willing to let him help them.
“I’m home.”
“Welcome home, Evan? Why such a long face?” his mother, Katrina greeted him. She looks young despite her age being over forty.
“Nothing to do. Mom, are you cooking?”
“Yes.” his mother is cutting the potato skillfully with a knife.

“I’ll help.”
“No.” she replied shortly which makes him looks dejected.
“Sorry Evan, but remember last time you tried to cut something? You almost got your fingers cut off.” she shivered remembering her own son almost cutting his own fingers.
“Well, I won’t repeat it again.”
“It’s sharp, I can’t let my son lose his fingers.”
“Okay mom, then, I'll be heading to my room.” while looking dejected, he forced himself to his room and lied down on his bed. He sighed thrice and then closed his eyes.
“Remember, you are me. I am you.”

Shadowrun: Blake Island School of Magic
It's a high tech, low life. It's the Seattle Metroplex in 2074. It rises like a steel and concrete cancer out of the earth. Poverty is rampant, corruption is everywhere, crime is out of control, corporations basically control everything, the old United States is fractured, magic has come back and now it turns out that humanity has been joined by elves, dwarves, orks and trolls. The old world ended but the rent is still due. Life goes on. You'd be surprised what people can adapt to, especially if they don't have a choice. One of the places where life goes on is just west of Seattle. Surrounded by the waters of the Puget Sound is an island. On that island is the Blake Island School of Magic. A decade ago it was known for producing some of the most talented awakened in the world. That reputation was hijacked by the wealthy corporate elite who now park their teenage children there. And since it's a boarding school, their parents mostly forget about them. Three young people, who are certainly not wealthy or elite, are chosen this year to attend this school of magic in hopes of revitalizing their reputation for talent. One from the ash drifts of the Puyallup Barrens, one from the most densely populated slum hive in the world and one from prison. This is their story. -- This story is set in the Shadowrun universe. If you're not familiar with Shadowrun, it mostly tells the stories of deniable mercenaries called shadowrunners in a cyberpunk dystopia. Instead of telling another story solely about shadowrunners, this story will tell the tale of young people navigating a world that is indifferent to them at best and actively hostile at worst. Shadowrunners will be in the story and we'll see them operate, but they won't be its main focus. This story originally began in 2017 as a passion project and continues to this day on the Somethingawful.com forums. The unedited version is over a million words strong. There are currently seven books in this series and I am currently in the process of editing them. If you read this story then you won't lack for content. -- The Topps Company, Inc. has sole ownership of the names, logo, artwork, marks, photographs, sounds, audio, video and/or any proprietary material used in connection with the game Shadowrun.
