"Heeh?"
I look around dumbfounded by the environment shifting and forming itself into something new.
'So my flight's cancelled and if it isn't I have a good excuse'
Buildings started to crumble for the support they rellied on are failing on them.
'Should I leave?'
With the deep familiar sound of groaning metal the signal tower of the airport tilted and as if in slow motion fell over. I could practically see the shock wave coming.
What followed after was as if everything...jumped.
'This much force doesn't make sense'
People lost their footing and as if on cue panic broke out. I was still seated in one of the lobby chairs so the shock wave didn't fase me as much as it should have.
'Even if I was standing that little tremor couldn't possibly make me wobble'
As a see of people passed by me my mind went blank, it always does in moments of panic. After all, an empty stomach digests poison.
'That saying makes no sense'
From a corner of my mind which I know wasn't there a emotionless voice spoke.
Sufficient traits collected for unlocking Classes.
I paused. Eh fuck it.
'Elaborate'
Classes are what the system gives out to sapient beings with sufficient positive/negative traits.
These kind of messages are perceived differently from individual to individual.
That last sentence had a bit more emotion in it, but not enough. Also how can it say "/"?
'Elaborate on my Traits'
Violent: words can only achieve so much, your fists can do much more.
Thanks dad.
Fighting spirit: even with broken limbs your still a threat, the fight ends when you say it does or when you die.
Where did this come from now?
Slow thinker: you make slow decisions which make you a burden in moments of crisis, but you make the right choice.
Dam right I do.
Rude: you're rude.
Fuck you to.
Rage filled: anything is enough to make you lash out, you don't care about justice anymore, only about the how.
The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.
In my defence my therapist was a pusi.
Heavyweight: born five times heavier than the average you yet have to meet someone who can forcefully move you.
Huh, there was a lot more emotion into this one now. Perhaps because it's a trait I was born with.
Short sighted: your aim and sight perception are next to pathetic.
Even more emotion, maybe because I inherited this one from my parents.
Strong footed: never have you lost your footing, not through storms, not through fights, not through injuries and you never will!
Dam, this was basically a motivational speech.
Sharp eared: for the cost of good sight your hearing is close to perfect.
Dam right it is.
Iron gut: what makes others throw up is just a little greasy for you, however your still a picky eater.
Eh
Half greedy: you're willing to ignore your morale and better judgement for the coin, however nothing can make you cross the line in the sand.
You're not better.
Great strength: your limbs have to be able to move your great weight after all, your kick is devastating.
Of course it is, my legs a strong enough to move more than 120kg (240 pounds) if your naturally heavy than you're the best training weight.
Natural armor (blunt): a layer of fat and muscle make your body greatly resistant to light cuts and blunt trauma.
My physike resembles that of a sumo ringer, muscles hidden under fat.
Patient: your patient, it's the only reason you haven't killed anyone yet.
Dam, can I kill someone? I'm strong enough, but can I live with it?
I
can, I can live with killing someone. I just never had a reason.
Psychotic(Pyromaniac): from young on you enjoyed burning things, leafs, lumber, wood, flesh, it all becomes beautiful in the red lotus.
Dam, it's really going deep isn't it?
Daydreamer: your mind loves to wander
That's it? Nothing more to it? Ma used to give me so much bullshit because of that.
Cold resistance: your fat offers protection from the cold but you can't handle heat that well.
I was that kid that showed up to school in winter wearing shorts.
Resilient: your not gonna be the first to tire out, whilst others take breaks you keep going without ever slowing down.
Not sure where that comes from but ok.
Suicidal
...
Lazy
So it even mentions traits one got rid of.
Optimistic
Should I have been more precise?
Unique trait: Glutton, everything consumes what it has to but you are always hunger. You always ate the most but always stood up first. Your only truly happy whilst having a meal you fat pig!
....
Why don't I hear that for the first time?
'Elaborate on my classes'
Conmon class: Heavy Bruiser
Your not meant to hit hard or be deadly burt your definitely meant to be a problem-in-their-faces.
Uncommon class: Brute
Big and strong you crush whoever dares to oppose you.
Rare class: Flamming leviathan
The beauty of the red lotus drives you far past what should be possible and explainable.
Epic class: Vulcanic Goliath
With a far greater understanding of the red lotus and greater physical strength this goliath puts shame on all who claim to control the red lotus.
Legendary class: Devourer
Your hunger is unsatisfactibal, you eat and eat and eat without end. In the end you will be the strongest. In the end you will be the last.
I almost picked the last one when all of the sudden.
Unique class: Juggernaut
As a unique class this will be the first time the system witnesses a sapient being getting this option.
Not even I can tell you what it brings with it.
Again, emotion. It seems eager that I pick it. Well I'm not people pleaser but I guess I can do an exception.
After all there has to be a reason for it to come after Legendary.
'I chose to become a Juggernaut'
