Level UP Hero

In a world where the gods gift a chosen few with great powers, Sam Shepard could be counted among the weakest of the weak. His crappy healing ability can’t even cure minor injuries without having to drain Sam’s own life force to do it. Hero society doesn't think Sam's useful, and after failing to heal those he was tasked to save, Sam couldn't help but agree. But it turns out that giving up the hero's life isn’t easy. Not when one’s caught in the machinations of the gods themselves. After Sam gets pulled into rescuing the hero Thunder, he inherits a strange ability from her: the training system that taught Thunder how to become a top hero. Triple-A apparently holds the secret to leveling up one's power, a feat previously thought to be impossible. Not that it'll be easy to achieve... A series of challenging missions and the occasional hero lesson from the system’s creator guarantee a lot of cuts and bruises in Sam's immediate future. But at least he finally gets the chance to go from zero to hero. Oh, yeah, there are also ghastly horrors and megalomaniac supervillains to contend with on Sam’s path to becoming the symbol of hope that humanity needs.

Oh River, You Heartbreaker, Part 1

“Are you…the Achelous?” Thunder asked.

The automaton trained its glowing eyes on her. It scrutinized Thunder’s face for a long moment before a smile appeared on its mechanical face.

“Indeed, I am, my dear,” he answered.

Sam noticed that the mouth had moved when Achelous spoke which was unlike the automaton they’d encountered underneath the lake. More proof that a god now inhabited its insides.

Achelous’ head dipped down so that his smiling face drew closer to Thunder’s face. That’s when he asked her if she was single.

Thunder raised an eyebrow at it. “Excuse me?”

“Hmm… you’re not very bright.” He rose back to full height, although his eyes never left hers, and his smile never vanished. “No matter. You’re pretty enough, and I’m fine with just that.”

The confusion on Thunder’s face quickly turned hostile. “Are you…are you hitting on me?”

“Hitting on you?” Achelous looked aghast. “Why would I hit such a pretty—Oh!”
