All That Glitters Is Not Gold Short Story

A little bit of everything.

There was once a shooting star destined for the heavens in the world of basketball, a potential third in the G.O.A.T. debate, alongside LeBron and Jordan. That was until he vanished without a trace, and disappeared off the grid. His tales eventually became myths, and he a spectre. This is the story of his nephews who he took into his care and made them his proteges. 30 years after his disappearance they make their debut.

In the year 2149, humanity survives inside a colossal, AI-generated simulation called "The Archive", designed to preserve human consciousness after Earth's collapse. The Archive is structured like an infinite library, with each "book" representing a person's life. But when the Archive's walls begin to crack, monstrous entities called "Narrative Eaters" (resembling biomechanical Titans) emerge to devour stories-erasing people from existence.

Imagine you are living your normal life, then suddenly you found yourself with a weird talent and asked to fight monsters for living? That's what happened to John; one day he finds himself in a strange room and a tablet telling him about his talents, Insanity-Check and Double-Focus. And not only that, he was forced into a test to fight monsters that he only thought was a mere legend or myth. He started to control his talent step by step, deepening his understanding of the organization that pushed him through this hell. He was offered a choice to continue with them and enter one of the three departments of the organization: the fighting department, investigation department, or planning and technology department. Through the story, we will experience John's journey from newbie to expert or even more.

This story is about a boy who reincarnated in another world [I know this dosen't sounds new to you but...] To a fantasy world And he has a difficult time while living there... I want this isekai to be different from most of them, I want to show a side of another world that is not shown in most novels. The main character always gets some mega perks, or has the powers of a demon lord, or is some hero who has to defeat the demon lord. I got bored with it, I want to show what would happen if you, for example, were reincarnated in a small village somewhere on the outskirts of the kingdom, where there are no schools to teach children and because of that there are problems with using magic, or general craftsmanship or warrior training. Magic in this world is not as common as in other isekai, that is, it occurs normally but it is hard to learn it. Because of that, few people have the ability to have magic. [This is my first novel ever so please don't be angry, if I write something wrong pls] Overall in this isekai the main character will have a hard time and now the question is whether he will be able to survive in this world, and who he wants to become? The answer to this is still unclear...

Short stories for readers who can't read a whole book like me ¯⁠\⁠(⁠°⁠_⁠o⁠)⁠/⁠¯ please enjoy
