《Izuku's leveling system. [On Hiatus]》The Three Commandments
Advertisement
After I saw the statue, I saw that it's eyes were glowing while looking at us. I felt a chill run down my spine.
"Everyone, get down!!!! " I scream on top of my lungs and then fall down into a groveling position.
Many of us, who heard me also knelt down, suddenly, I saw a streak of light being emitted from the large stone statue.
After a while, the light had stopped emitting from the large statue, relieved, I look at the other members of the group and see that a few were missing, only 13 people were there.
Suddenly I heard a scream from one of the girls in the group, she saw a burnt hand lying on the ground, all cut off.
I remembered then, what the stone tablet said, it said something about some commandments. Right! They were worship the Lord, praise the Lord , and prove your faith.
' I think to myself.
Before I could say anything, Bakugou began shouting all angrily at the statue and claimed that he will destroy it, one of his stronger friends also joined with him and jumped at the statue to fight it.
I saw the eyes of the statue glow again. Bakugou noticed it too and quickly got out of the way. But unfortunately, his friend was not that fast, he was blasted away by the beam of light and we all saw only his legs remaining.
Some people of the group quickly went to the angry bakugou who somehow went completely silent and held him down. The statue stopped again.
"I think I have an idea. " I said. "Everyone, we have to do as that stone tablet said to do. I think by worship, it means that we have to grovel in front of it. " I added.
Everyone showed a little hesitation, but followed my word later. It was only Bakugou whom four people had to hold down just so he doesn't go off at the statues again.

After everyone had been groveling in front of the statue for some time, I looked up to see that his eyes which were glowing , stopped .
Suddenly, his expression changed.
It went from no expression to full-on creepy, and then it stopped, for a while it was completely silent. So much so that even a pin-drop could be heard.
But it was just the calm before the storm. As, we all were standing silently, the large statue suddenly started to move. It was standing up.
"Hey, quick! What's the second one?" Someone asked me.
"It was ''. " I replied.
"Ohh dont worry then, you can leave that to me. You see, my papa is a father in the local church, so I know how to do it. " Someone from the crowd said as he began to move forward.
He took out a cross from around his neck and started praying after closing his eyes.
'Noo!! You are doing wrong. That's praising the wrong God '
I thought, deeply wishing I come out wrong.
While all this was going on, the statue had lifted it's leg up and was in front of the man, it the thrusted it's feet down in full speed.
In an instant, his feet came down and that person was squished underneath. Seeing this, everyone began panicking, the ones with weak hearts fell down on the ground. What else could be expected from 13 year old children.
We all started running, one of the person in the crowd tried to take cover with the statues nearby, immediately, the statue moved and sliced the person in half.
' If we stay in the center, the large statue will crush us, if we go near the other statues, they will kill us, this is no god, it's the devil. '

I thought to myself.
But then I saw one with a musical instrument, ' What? Will they also attack with musical instruments? '
I thought.
Only one way to find out, I guess. "Everyone, get infront of the statues with musical instruments." I screamed at everyone.
Bakugou was the first, when he went in front of the statue with a violin, it started playing it, similarly it happened with other four statues.
I looked at the large statue to see some change. But it was still not stopping, I looked around, everyone was infront of a statue with a musical instrument, only I was left. The statue then looked towards me and started running towards me.
I looked around while running to find anything usefull, then I saw one statue without any instruments or weapons,
"Well, here goes nothing. " I said and began running towards it while dodging the large one.
When running , I saw the giant foot above me and to avoid it, I tried to slide past. Luckily, I was able to dodge the foot, but in all the hustle, I forgot looking at where I was going.
"Hey nerd! That isn't a musical instrument! " I heard a loud yell from Bakugou.
' ' I thought, as I saw the statue slamming its shield into the ground.
I don't know wether it was the will to live or whatever it was, but i kept on crawling towards the statue.
' If there is a God, then please help me. ' I thought to myself.
Then I just heard a voice coming from the statue, it was singing.
I tried to take support from the statue and looked at the large statue, it was going back to it's seat and sitting down. Still with the same errie expression.
Suddenly, I heard a loud scream from someone.
"EEEEKKKK!!! Your leg!! " A girl screamed.
I look down to see what had happened. Apparently, my right leg was cut off. Maybe I didn't feel that because of all the adrenaline in my body.
That girl had some healing powers, so she tried to heal me or do something about the bleeding. This caused her to get a nosebleed and almost faint, but the bleeding had stopped somewhat.
(Third person perspective)
Of the the 17 people that entered the room, only 6 people were remaining, the rest's bodies were lying around everywhere and some had straight up vanished.
As soon as the statue sat down, a large circular altar started to form in the center of the room.
" What is that? " Someone from the group asked.
"It's an altar, it's for the third commandment, 'prove your faith'. " Izuku said to him.
"You don't have to say anything more, even though I may not be that intelegent, but I can guess what it means. We have to offer a sacrifice, right? " He said to me.
"Yeah, you are correct. " Izuku replied.
" If anyone here has to die as sacrifice, it has to be Bakugou, after all, he was the one who dragged us all here " He said while aiming his fingers at Bakugou. His quirk was fingerguns and he could shoot bullets from his
"All right, fine. Do as you wish, I'm gonna survive this and then become the strongest hero " Bakugou said and started moving towards the altar, with the other guy behind him.
To be continued.

Flame Beneath The Snowfall
Alto is a world governed by Tones. Magic, as one might call it. Manifested through deep mental and physical conditioning, one can control the Tones in a way that is unique to them. The power to store items in gems, transfer life, affect a person's mind, and even the more primal abilities such as control of the elements. Those who have these supernatural abilities are called 'Vassals.' People that fully manifest their abilities are not as common as one might think, and not all Vassals acquire their ability through practice, given if conditions are met. In fact, those who had received much trauma manifest the Tones more frequently, albeit spontaneously. However, the rare kind of Vassals are those who manifest it from childhood. A gift, but not without its repercussions. Alto is stuck in a transitional era, where the line between modern and dated technology is blurred. One can travel to a city that has a tall skyline, bustling with people in sophisticated clothing, or a mere town governed by a lord, all the while riding on a powered vehicle. Cultures vary: Some turn to the more dated practices such as castes, others are more inclined to set equal footing on their people, led by nobility. Some are dedicated to become scholars, studying Alto's Tones, while others set foot on hunts, protecting lone towns from the creatures of some of the still-untamed lands. And the Vassals? Those willing are took under The Organization, an elusive group, its presence said to permeate all throughout Alto, taking care of Rogue Vassals that abuse their abilities and other businesses related to their side. But what is this story all about, you may ask? Well, set your sights on the upper portions of this huge landmass that is Alto. Yes, the 'whole' world is called Alto, but that is because the majority of the known people live on this large continent. Relieve yourself of the worrying tensions everywhere, and see the white snow. Trace the piercing mountaintops and focus your eyes between the valley. A town sits there. Mido. After realizing that the memories only left in his mind was the night of his town's imminent destruction in flames, a boy finds himself grasping for every fiber of his life as he lays down flat on the ground. Beneath him was soot mixed with the white snow. Fortunately, a group of investigators, who were supposed to answer their call for help, saved him from his sorry state. With a newfound second wind, but hampered by his loss of memory, he must solve his own case: Who had the audacity to set Mido, his town, aflame? Flame Beneath the Snowfall focuses on action, with a sense of adventure, but mostly the discovery of an outside world, and the protagonist's exposure to it. Add in a whisk of soft magical elements, and you get a story that I hope will be interesting to the readers. That is not to say that my work is without the sense of unnerving atmosphere, however. As a forewarning, there are elements of gore, horror, minor elements of mental trauma, etc. so it is not for all audiences. *The book is already completed. Although I have plans to continue the story (it would have to involve much larger scope in terms of world-building), I have yet to decide when to start the next entry.
