The Rise of the Algorithm King

"Hurry up already, Storm! Go fetch the vegetables from the farm land!" An elderly man voiced hastily, and a teenage boy rushed out from his room all dressed in his brown jacket and brown pants. A black plastic bag was held in his hand, and a silver bracelet around his wrist."Sorry for the delay, grandpa." Storm apologised as he laced his boots."Be back before evening because I still need you for some other things around here, Storm." Grandpa Sikes, instructed."Understood." Storm affirmed by nodding hus head before dashing out from the house and heading towards the farm. Grandpa Sikes stood there and watched Storm run joyfully through the street, and a smile appeared on his face.Despite the humiliation and tantrums he faced because he was born into the world as a human, he still managed to remain cheerful. The current world now regards humans as weak and useless..people that shouldn't be a part of the world. While the mythical creatures like Orcs, dragons, elves, dwarfs, reigned s

Storm's eyelids began to lift open as he slowly woke up from his slumber."I'm not dead?" Storm frowned with a disappointed look. He remembered ingesting a poison that was enough to kill twenty men..why then was he still alive. "Maybe the pills were all fake. Darn the man that sold it to me." "My bracelet." Storm glanced at his wrist, but his bracelet was gone. Thinking about it, images of earlier began to flash back.The whole bright light that filled the room..and also.."What was thats screen i saw earlier?" Saying those last words, the same screen from earlier materialised right in front of Storm.[STORM WALKER HAS REACHED THE REQUIREMENT][VESSEL HAS BEEN ACQUIRED][TO PROCEED, VESSEL NEEDS TO COMPLETE THE ACCEPTANCE QUEST][CLICK ON YES TO ACCEPT, AND NO TO DECLINE THE POWER][YES] [NO]Storm glanced at the screen in front of him in bewilderment."Haha, I didn't die, instead I was struck with madness and now I am seeing things." Storm rubbed his dirty blonde hair with a chuckle

"Hmm..Still no cha.." While Strom was busy glancing at his muscles, he began to hear crashing sounds from outside. Confused by the noise, Strom dashed out from the room and arrived in the living room."Grandpa!" Storm exclaimed through gritted teeth as he watched a high orc grab Grandpa Sikes's neck and lift him off the floor while strangling him."Storm...run!" Grandpa Sikes managed to speak as the high orc kept squeezing the life out of him.Storm stood there dazed for few seconds before regaining composure and began to charge forward. Getting in striking distance, Storm clenched his right fist tightly and punched it towards the high orc's face.BAM!The punch slammed heavily on his head, causing him to let go of grandpa Sikes and got sent crashing outside the house."Are you okay?" Storm bent down in front of Grandpa Sikes with a worrisome look as he kept coughing."I told you to run, Storm. These guys will kill you." Grandpa Sikes warned while trying to catch his breath."I can't

The students were led outside the white area and were taken to a whole new location. It was a vast open area, a raised platform could be seen in the middle, and three staff could be seen waiting a few distant away."Please come forth to begin the ranking test!" A female staff ordered in an audible tone.A boy amongst the group wasted no time in mounting the raised platform where a round object could be seen floating a few metres in the air. "The first test is a strength test. Please punch the ball with everything you've got!" The female staff informed me.The boy took a deep breath in as he clenched his fist, pulled his arm backwards, and swung it forth with all his might.BAM!A loud noise reverberated throughout the area as the boy's fist connected to the ball, and what looked like a number began to read until it finally stopped at 87.The staff recorded the number in their register as they proceeded to the next which was target practice. Six objects appeared metres away from wher

Storm didn't respond for a while as he just stood there with his head facing the floor. Images of how Flare burnt down grandpa Sikes's only source of income to the ground came flooding his mind and made his blood boil in anger."Hey, i am talking to you, trash! What are you doing in a place like this?" Flare repeated his question while tightening his grip.After few seconds of staying mute, Storm finally spoke."You only have three seconds to get your hand off me." Storm uttered in a deep and menancing tone.Hearing the words of Storm, Flare and other students in the cafeteria broke out in serious laughter."Can you all believe this guy, hahah..." Flare paused in his laughter as he felt Storm grab his arm and his bones began to twist.'What's with his strength?' Flare pondered internally as Storm twisted his arm before letting go and walked away.While Storm walked away, Flare pulled out a dagger and stabbed Storm from behind, causing him to grunt in serious pain and fall down to his
