STEM: The Underground City

~When dust turns to gold~ Following an invasion by a reptile-like species called Khalgora in the year 2043, humanity is forced to take a final stance in a gruesome confrontation that threatened it's existence into an apocalyptic demise. After decades of tactical execution of all its skills and resources man triumphs over beast. But only barely. With stenches of death and wails of suffering, the earth is left desolate, infertile with an atmosphere deteriorating at an alarming speed. The only habitat lies below. Year 2311. Welcome to STEM city. STEM (an abbreviation for ' Safe Territorially Erected Megalopolis'), is an underground Empire and home to the surviving earth inhabitants, sheltering them from the harsh conditions of the rubbled earth's surface. But even in this city where intellectual geniuses wheeled a minor underground refuge operation to a major megalopolis, slums existed. These slums like any other, are regions with insufficient supply of amenities from the Megalopolis' authority leading to hunger, suffocation and high rate of death by major lung diseases. Diana and her brother Axel are twin siblings who were born and brought up in these slums, lose everything but even in this great abyss of darkness, find a ray of hope, Polaris. Polaris academy is an institution erected by the collaboration of the major pillaring powers of STEM to raise potential superhumans in skills such as martial arts, elemental abilities, advanced sciences and much more, all to help in the exploration of the earth surface now being roamed by foreign beasts who pose a threat to the underground empire. In a world where the weak were preyed on and only the strong thrived, two poor kids with no background find themselves in this academy among astoundingly skilled minds from powerful families fighting for the same spot as them. Can they survive the competition and level up or will they return to the hell they came from? **** ~Excerpt ~ " Attention all factions, report to the portal station in an hour. A live Khalgora is loose in Flouresce, we need to contain it before any damage is done to civilians. Go!" The message set all students of Polaris in an uproar. **** What happens when humanity's mortal enemy is able to infiltrate this fortified empire? ---------------- A/N: cover obtained from the internet.

Reborn in a middle age world with the Knowledge Deposit

Lance Demetrian was born to Guardian Oberdan Demetrian, a renowned war hero of Velmyr, and Liria Solvaris von Velmy, the proud sister of King Dessus Solvaris von Velmy. His birth should have been a bridge between the common roots of his father and the noble lineage of his mother. Instead, it became a source of shame and conflict that would define his tragic youth. Lance was born under a lunar eclipse, an event never recorded, and as such, never before seeing by the people of Velmy, being labeled as "The Child of the damned" Lance was disdained by the court for bringing shame and being a stain in the purity of the Royal Blood. His mother driven by supersticion, refused to hold him as an infant, ignoring him the entirety of his childhood. His father focus was on maintaning he new found noble title, subjected him to relentless physical and mental trial, a practice that the people believed would awaken the "Guardian" status, yet Lance could not awaken, being deemed as too soft and weak by his father. Considering this they chose to focus their care on Lance's younger brothers and sisters. Being 10 years old, in one of the trial commanded by his father, the young Lance was attacked by a wild boar, as he hesitated to do face the beast he was saved by his father's men but not without a cost. Though his inaction was caused by fear and inexperience, his father just saw a coward.

Along with Liria they accused Lance of stealing a Royal relic that had been giving to Liria the day of her wedding, labeling as a traitor. His father didnt opose the idea, Lance was after all his heir, and an unworthy at that, so he decided to cast him out, so to make Lance's younger brother the heir of the Demetrian house. This way young Lance alone and with a pouch of gold, was sent to a distant and barren land, never to be seen again, or so they thought
