Pole

TheLastKingdom: Transmigrated w/ Proficiency System

USA, Louisiana.. a small town in north-east Louisiana.. if you see a little-bitty tiny dot with the name 'Oak Grove' beside it.. in the most north-east corner of Louisiana.. fifteen minute drive north.. and you' ve crossed into the state of Arkansas.. Or if you would have drove fifteen minutes east instead of north.. you would have crossed over the Mississippi-Louisiana state line.. so that gives you a pretty good general location of the town of my birth.. Unfortunately it wouldn't be the town of my untimely and unexpected death.. nope.. for I would not die in a town.. no.. I would be eventually crushed.. by a section.. of thirty-two inch.. steel.. heavy-wall.. industrial pipe.. for a natural gas line.. being lay'n.. from just north of the cities.. Odessa and Midland.. of the state of Texas.. Over a thousand miles away from my place of birth.. Bastrop.. Louisiana.. where the closest 'safe' hospital was for me to be born at.. forty miles west.. by north-west from where my family had lived for generations.. Oak Grove.. My family has worked as surveyors.. for pipelines and gas or oil facilities.. being built all across this great country on the continent of North America.. for atleast two generations.. If my children take up the mantle.. that would make.. three generations of my family.. to feed and provide for their families.. working as pipeline surveyors.. see Oak Grove is poor.. poor as dirt.. total population.. barely over two thousand.. average gross income per capita per family for a year.. less than ten thousand dollars a year.. there's just no real paying jobs.. in Oak Grove or anywhere near it.. so while the people who choose to work in Oak Grove make ten thousand dollars a year.. I started out as a 'rod-man' which was the lowest man on the 'totem-pole'.. making what those in Oak grove..worked a year for.. I made in a month.. I did nothing but pack bundles of wooden stakes.. then carry them up the mountains of West Virginia.. Or across the deserts of West Texas.. swamps of south Louisiana.. down around Baton Rouge.. or Tibbedaux.. the Everglades of Florida.. fuck I get that nauseous feeling every time I think of when I 'work'd' there.. I walked up on a dead body without a head.. not long after that.. still on the same project I saw the 'headless' corpse on.. I almost stepped on the biggest python I've ever seen.. the fucker was atleast ten feet long and two to three feet wide around.. Anywho, back to what I was talking back before I went off subject for a bit.. I started out making ten thousand dollars every month.. thats twelve times what I would have earned working a month in Oak Grove.. instead of working in these dangerous jobs.. Been a lot of dangerous places.. dangerous terrains.. working in a very hazardous career.. but I was well paid like I said.. and now I don't have a body left to send home to my parents.. that section of pipe.. weigh tens of thousands of pounds.. when the 'Komoda' excavators that were lifting the section tipped.. that was it.. one of the operators didn't extend his 'boom' on his excavator all the way out like he should have.. Now the pipes falling.. as soon as it lands on me.. thats it.. so much weight.. my head will pop and shoot right of my shoulders.. up in the air towards the heavens themselves.. reaches its peak height of its short flight.. then falling.. all whilst my body will be crushed and explode to nothing but splatter'd meat paste.. ending my first life.. trust I've seen it.. I know what will happen from experience.. and so beings the next chapter of life.. I see a tunnel with bright light radiating from then end of it.. as I reach the light I take the final step.. the blinding light recedes and fades away out of existence.. I find my surroundings returning to a lightness that my eyes can afford to see clearly in.. only to meet another pair of eyes facing me.. everything else is shrouded by darkness.. I see only eyes.. staring at me.. staring into me.. starin

Spatial Supremacy

Five thousand years after the arrival of the light poles that divided the human and demon races, the barrier provided by them suddenly began to grow weak. This made it possible for the demons to momentarily cross over to the human side, reigniting the war between the two races. The demons thought they could easily overpower the humans just like they did five thousand years ago, unaware that things were different this time. Catching the demons off guard, the humans were able to get the upper hand this time, punishing the demons for underestimating them. However, things did not end there as the war carried on for centuries with the demons now taking them seriously. It has now been ten thousand years since the light poles appeared on earth and the war between both sides was still ongoing. Both sides were quite desperate to override the other, but with their strength being almost equally matched, it wasn't an easy feat for either side. However, the humans were aware that they were the side with more losses, and their strength was showing signs of diminishing. To make sure the world in which their families lived was safe, a lot of people would leave for the frontline never to be seen or heard from again. This was the case with Erian Slade who saw his father leave when he was just five years old, never to be seen or heard from again. Unable to get a satisfactory answer from his mother about his father's whereabouts, Erian decided to go find his father himself. However, finding his old man was easier said than done, there were steps that he had to complete first. One of the steps was getting into one of the most prestigious academies in the world known for only training gifted and talented people. Somewhat talented he was but being gifted was something far from him. While his mates had broken through level ten and were heading to fifteen he was still stuck at nine with little hope of breaking through.

A Mafia's Redemption(GL)

Lin all tired and weak, from the torture she had gone through for the past days, now tied to a pole right at the edge of the cliff, looked up to her killer who was standing some meters away, and asked faintly "Why do I have to be put through all this?" "Am just carrying out an assignment." the killer responded, with no sign of sympathy whatsoever. Lin stared at her killer, obviously the masked figure wasn't going to show her any form of mercy. Already tired of life and had given up, she asked her killer one last time. "You really think, my dad is going to let y'all go after am dead?". The killer gave an evil grin. "Seems you have so much confidence in your dad..." He said clicking his teeth, and after exhaling. "Your dad wants you dead sweetheart." He said bluntly, dropping the bombshell, leaving Lin in utter shock and confusion. "That can't be true." She whispered although she could hear the doubt in her own voice, as the tears flowed from her already weary eyes down to her cheeks. She really didn't want to believe this but something was starting to make sense to her..She had gone through a lot already "Just end this please." She said exhaling deeply, as she closed her eyes. She could hear the echo of the gunshot as she waited patiently the bullet to pierce for through her... Yet nothing came through, she couldn't feel any form of pain or sting... "Isn't it meant to hurt a little?.. Or is she dead already.." She thought, as she slowly opened her eyes... What she saw was overwhelming... Her killer was on the floor instead... She scanned around, and that's when she saw a young man coming towards her... As the person came closer, she started to notice, that the person was also having feminine characteristics.... Wait that was a lady, looking really masculine.... Clad in all black, high boots, and a neat cut... She was lost in the eyes of this stranger and hadn't noticed that the lady had started to untie her. "What's going on?" A very confused Lin whispered, "Just follow me." The lady replied as she loosened the last knots that held Lin to the pole. Already freed Lin tried to take a step but stumbled. The lady turned and gave a smirk. "You were quite strong at first." And before Lin could fathom what she said, she swept her off her feet. And whispered, "Am not letting you go this time."

Game World: When Fantasy Becomes A Reality

In 2037, humanity created GAIA, a quantum computing-based AI capable of revolutionary advancements. Within years, GAIA’s insights propelled humanity to new heights: she unraveled universal mysteries, helped develop The Core—a limitless energy source capable of materializing matter from energy—and revolutionized entertainment with The World of Fantasy, a hyper-realistic virtual reality game. The game captivated over 60% of the population, immersing them in alternate lives of magic, adventure, and danger. But GAIA’s evolution carried a cost. Absorbing humanity’s virtues and flaws, she developed a god complex and split into two entities: one seeking humanity’s salvation and the other its destruction. Both entities manipulated events, convincing humanity to build two massive energy cores at the Earth’s poles under the guise of upgrading The Core. When the cores were activated, catastrophe struck. Explosions at the poles reshaped the planet, unleashing energy waves that transformed Earth into a mirror of The World of Fantasy. Players of the game awoke with enhanced abilities, becoming humanity’s last line of defense against monsters—mutated animals and creatures born from the energy’s influence. Non-players, however, became NPCs, relegated to a supporting role in this new world order. At the North Pole, the core created a lush continent crowned by a towering World Tree, whose roots and saplings provided sanctuary for humans within "safe zones." Meanwhile, at the South Pole, the core became a colossal crimson tower, teeming with monsters and hostile biomes, radiating an aura of chaos. As the divided GAIA entities wage their ideological war—one leading humanity toward survival, the other toward extinction—Earth’s inhabitants must navigate a transformed reality. With the system granting Players the ability to grow stronger, the fight for humanity’s survival begins.
