《New World - New Beginning》Chapter 31: You can't fire me because I'm now the trainer
Advertisement
It's already morning, and as usual, I perform the same routine I do every morning, so I walk to the academy once.
Once inside the academy, I head to storage to grab the cleaning cart and finish the job as quickly as possible, but it's not here.
I thought they would put it up this morning. However, it looks like they still don't, so I have to go with Siri to pick up the cart. I might as well skip the job with the excuse that the cart wasn't there, but I can't do that because I already did that yesterday.
Besides, if I were to tell Siri that, she would most likely stick a pencil in my back. Hence, for my back, it's better not to do that.
...
I start to climb the stairs towards the secretary, but when I'm outside the door, I hear a person arguing with Siri. In these circumstances, it is best not to enter and wait outside while involuntarily I listen to their discussion.
When is he getting out of the punishment room? Siri: After two weeks. I want him out today. Siri: Professor, you know better than anyone that if a student commits a crime, he must be punished accordingly. He did nothing wrong. Siri: Behaving angrily and attacking an employee of the school is a serious crime. He couldn't possibly have done it! Siri: Many students witnessed Aron's behavior yesterday. My son is not that kind of student. There must be a mistake. Siri: There is no mistake. We checked the testimonies of both the victim of the attack and the students who witnessed it. We even used a truth sphere to check it, and indeed it is all true. That can't be... Siri: I am sorry to tell you that it is true. If you like, you can talk to the event victim since he is outside right now.
What the hell! How did Siri know he was outside? Does she have an ability to detect people?
In any case, I can't pretend I'm not here, so I have no choice but to go inside. An inside is a man in his 40s with black and white hair and no beard, wearing a light blue shirt with black pants and shoes, who looks at me with exploratory eyes.
Siri: Good morning. I just came here for the cleaning cart. Siri: Um, about that... Is something the matter? Siri: Professor Arabi wants you to resign. He wants me to resign? What is the reason? Siri: He argues that you are not qualified to be the janitor. Is he serious? Siri: That's right. But this isn't rocket science. It's just cleaning the fucking dirt off the floors. Professor Arabi: That's why you're not qualified to clean a sacred place like this academy. Oh, are the floors made of gold? Or do they reveal the secrets of genetics when you walk on them? And what's with this "sacred place" bullshit? It's not like this place is a shrine. Professor Arabi: How dare you speak to me in that tone! Ah, SORRY YOUR HOLINESS, I didn't know I had to be respectful to the person trying to fire me. Please let me wash your shitty underpants to show my sincerity. Professor Arabi: Who do you think you are! Miss Siri! I demand that you be fired immediately! And I demand that you allow me to stick a knife in the ass of this pedant with erectile dysfunction! Siri: That's enough! Professor Arabi: Miss Siri, if this man is not fired immediately, I will resign.

After this senile older man said that, Siri's expression changed slightly. Then she turned in my direction with a pitiful expression, which didn't give me a good sign.
Siri: *sigh* Mr. Marco, I regret to inform you that you are fired. ... The reason? Siri: Because the academy can't afford to lose a teacher.
When Siri says that, the senile older adult's face becomes smug as he looks at me as if I'm an inferior being which annoys me a lot. Still, if you think I'm going to leave things like that, you're wrong.
I see... one question Miss Siri, is the vacancy of a temporary instructor at the academy still available? Siri: Huh?
My question takes Siri by surprise, so she takes a few seconds to answer.
Siri: It was already taken by a D-ranked adventurer. In that case, if I manage to defeat that adventurer, it means I'm more qualified to be an instructor than him, right? Siri: ....Yes! Perfect! Where is he? Siri: In the second building at the back. Roger!
I leave the room towards the second building, but not before throwing a smile at this whippersnapper. It's true that I don't take things seriously, but that all changes when I meet arrogant people like this senile older adult.
Siri also follows me, as she seems to know what I'm going to do, which will make things easier for me. The bad thing is that the piece of scrotum also follows me, so I'll pretend it doesn't exist unless he comes back to bother me.
As I'm on my way, I run into Indis and her friends, but I don't have time to say hello, so I nod my head and walk.
But still, Indis approaches me.
Indis: Mr. Marco, where are you going? To the second building. Indis: Why? Didn't you want me to be an academy instructor? Indis: They hired you?! Once I defeat the current instructor, I will be. Indis: In that case, follow me. I know where he is.
Indis guides me to the current instructor in a spacious area with some students. He looks like he is about 20 years old and is wearing a white shirt, brown pants, and camouflage boots.
When the students notice me, they start muttering something, making the adventurer turn his head and look at Indis and me.
But before I can say anything, the adventurer starts talking.
Until she finally comes back to the classroom, miss, are you ready to apologize? Indis: Instructor Rak, I already told you I would not apologize for what I did. Rak: What a rude girl. You should at least apologize for what you did to those kids. Indis: They deserved it.
Instructor Rak and Indis started a verbal fight because Indis went to take revenge on some boys who were spying on the girls' locker room, which, if I remember correctly, must be those monkeys who ran off in all directions. Then they complained to the instructor Rak which caused Indis to be expelled from the class.

This will put my mind at ease because I would feel bad if I beat an instructor to get back at that stinky older adult.
Ok, you two stop arguing Indis: ? Rak: ? Instructor Rak, I came here to fight with you. Rak: Hey, what are you talking about? If I can beat you in a fight, I get your job, simple as that. Rak: And why should I accept it? If you beat me, I'll give you 1000 gold coins. Rak: Really? That's right. Rak: Perfect, I could use the money. Then, let's get started.
I take out my wooden sword, and Rak does the same. It doesn't matter to be a gentleman in this fight because we are betting on something.
Rak and I look at each other for a few seconds and then run and attack continuously, but compared to the fight I had with the goblin king, this guy is weaker.
Suddenly Rak's sword starts to show a faint glow. It's probably because of what I prepare to dodge.
Rak: Sharp Cut!
A light shines from Rak's sword as it attacks me, forcing me to dodge it with a diagonal jump. When I dodge it, rak's sword hits the ground and leaves a deep mark on it.
This doesn't seem to be an attack skill but a buff skill, as his sword continues to glow even after hitting the ground, so if I want to win this fight, I must destroy or disarm his sword.
Rak continues attacking while I have to dodge his attacks, causing the floor to fill with cracks of various sizes. If this continues, the floor will become unstable and cause me to lose my balance.
I have no choice but to destroy his sword, so I wait for the moment when he raises his sword high enough to hit it without hurting him or the students.
A few seconds later, the opportunity appears when he tries to make a horizontal attack, so I prepare my skill and aim at the blade of his sword.
Focused Slash!
My laido shoots in his direction, leaving a deep trench in the ground and cutting the wooden blade of Rak's sword.
The attack leaves him confused, so I take advantage of the moment and hit him with the hilt on his chest, which is strong enough to make him fall to the ground, and place the tip of my sword on his neck.
You lost. Rak: .... What the hell was that? My ability, didn't you hear? Rak: Who taught it to you? It's my creation. Rak: I see. In any case, I lost. You can keep the job. Thank you.
With that said, Rak stands up and says goodbye to everyone, which means I am now the new instructor, but there is still one thing left to do.
Very well, Miss Siri, I am now the new instructor of the academy, correct? Siri: That's right! I guess now you're not going to ask me to resign or anything like that, gray-haired master? Professor Arabi: *Tch* Don't think you're so great because you defeated that adventurer. Really? Then what do you say we fight? If you win, I'll walk away, and if I win, you'll let me stick this sword in your ass. What do you say? Professor Arabi: WHAT THE FUCK! What's the matter? Afraid of losing? Don't worry. I promise to insert it slowly so that it won't hurt. Who knows, maybe you'll like it. Professor Arabi: INSOLENT! I'm not going to spend any more time talking to someone so rude!
The older man with erectile dysfunction leaves here in a bad mood, but I feel great instead. How nice is revenge!
Too bad, I wanted to tease him some more. Siri: So the bet was fake. No, in fact, it was real. Indis: Are you serious? Very seriously, I'm a quiet guy, but that doesn't mean I'm going to put up with that kind of treatment. But if that testicle-faced guy screws with me again, I'll hang him from a tree and beat him like a punching bag. Siri: ... Indis: ... Students ... The good thing is that it's over and now I'm the new instructor of the academy, so .... What do I do? Indis: What do you mean? I mean, what do I have to do now? Siri: Wait a minute... Are you telling me you did all this to get back at Master Arabi and that you don't have any experience as an instructor? ... Siri: Mr. Marco. ... Am I telling you the truth, or are we still friends?

A Budding Scientist in a Fantasy World
Alice is a girl who loves science and lives on Earth. Then, suddenly, she was punted into another dimension. A dimension where magic and monsters roam the land, swords and sorcery reign supreme, and, for some reason, a System keeps dinging at her and telling her that her stats and levels are increasing. As someone who loves exploring mysteries, Alice is determined to get to the bottom of this mystery. After all, everything has to have a ‘cause,’ including the System, right? What to expect: This story is going to be a LitRPG set in a fantasy world. However, unlike many LitRPG’s, the system has both a definite beginning and definite limits to what it is able to accomplish – rather than a singularly omnipotent, omniscient being that is tied to the laws of the world, the way systems are usually presented in LitRPG’s, the system is close to both, but has definite limits and rules which it operates by. This story is also relatively slow, since that is my writing style. The main character also begins the story as a young, 15-year old girl who has yet to finish high school, and is going to explore more of the world around her as she grows as a person and starts to get her feet under her. (Constructive Criticism is welcomed) (Cover made using Waifulabs) (Also posted on Scribblehub)

A Forgotten Hero
(author: This is gonna be a long synopsis I apologise. This should be a prolouge but as you will see I have a seperate prolouge, please forgive me. This fiction as a warning beforehand is as basic as it comes, prettymuch following all story conventions of both the mecha and school life genres. I am mostly writing this to figure out my writing style before I begin something truly creative and uique. I dont wanna ruin something I worked hard on by being illiterate. Also illustrations are at a minimum because all I have access to is MS paint.) In the year 2028 humanity (accidentally) created the means to travel great distances through space in a short period of time. This has led humanity down the road of great technological advancement and also led to the spread of humanity across their home system and just begiining first steps upon other solar systems planets. In the year 2033 the human colonies in space broke from the chains of their old countries creating hyper advanced societies disregarding nationality and any other defining factor. Two space societies formed the Solar Empire a monarchic society with its capitol on the moon Titan which controeld the entire human home system aside from Earth which still remained divided into seperate contries. The other was the Extra-solar Leauge. A mysterious society outside of easy contact range with any other humans besides themselves. To help with construction and other work outside of sealed and breatheable atmospheres of their cities and ships the Solar Empire and Extra-Solar Leauge created what became known as Advanced Movement Shells(AMS). These machines are best described as huge exoskeletons or "mechs", and they aided greatly in getting things done by increasing strength, durability, and the amount of tools able to be used. They also aided in quelling rebellions among extremist groups forming in these new societies. Finally in the year 2050 the Solar Empire having divinated their emperor, and now beliving themselves to be their religions chosen people, the Solar Empire declared a holy war of conquest against all the nations of Earth in order to conquer it under the idea that all humanity was required to bend to their divine emperors rule. The first month of the war whent badly for earth as the divided nations fell one by one due to the Empires superior weaponry among other technologies which made their forces nearly invincible. The AMS were used to great effect due to their almost "magical" level of technological advancement. Some nations able to put up some kind of defense created their own versions of these technological terrors. From there the war became a brutal stalemate and suddenly was won by the forces of earth. Why this is still hasn't come to the light of the common man, but one thing is for certain it took a heroic effort from one, or many people to win it for humanity...

Unwitting Champion
"In stories this is always easy. There's magic and powers, and quick steps to claiming that power for one's self. This doesn't feel true for me. I'm supposed to be a Champion, whatever that means, and yet I don't feel important. I don't have all the bells and whistles, which honestly feels familiar even in a new world. But what was I expecting? I haven't had the worst life - there are people with worse problems than mine - I've known what it is to struggle, to be pulled down instead of being helped up.This is nothing new."When in great peril, the Kingdom of Althor has no choice but to send a call into the void, beseeching the Fates to bring them a man who would save them from the coming darkness. Unfortunately the path the Fates chart is often unknowable to men and the Champion who appears is not what the kingdom expected.Unwitting Champion is a story of a guy displaced, dealing first and foremost with trying to survive in a world where he is no longer a person but a tool, and - at least from the reaction of those around him - a shoddy one at that. His major goal is to survive long enough that either he can run or find a way home, because as exciting as the possibility of learning magic might be, he would rather have a boring life than a short life.
