The Sound of Despair

Transmigration. What if the cause is not a bus running you over, nor you falling into a pond, but you get five years to prepare, fully aware of what you’re getting into? Well, at least you think you know what you’re getting into... This is the situation Mike, a professional MMA fighter, finds himself in. Given the opportunity to leave behind his life on Earth and enter a world of swords and magic, he prepares to face the challenge. In a world of discrimination, injustice, and social class inequality, Mike demonstrates how far Earth has come in developing its martial arts and how much a simple low-kick can hurt. You’re stronger? Well, first, you will have to land a hit. You’re faster? Does it really matter if your movement is so wasteful? You know incredible techniques? Are they better than the legendary one-two combo, perfected by legends through thousands of years? You have more money? That indeed seems to be a problem. You have companions? It’s not like I’m lonely... I don’t need anyone… You know magic? Ok, now it’s just getting unfair. Mike will have to learn to adapt, improve and find his path in a world that is ruthless beyond compare. --------------------------------------------------------- The first five chapters can be a little slow and serve more as a prologue. If you find yourself bored or generally dislike "training arcs," just skip to the sixth chapter when Mike's life in the new world officially begins. In general, there will be a lot of training, as I love training sequences like in the 36th Chamber of the Shaolin. There will also be close to no romance, and while this is not a pet taming novel, there will be companions. I just enjoy writing as a hobby and hope I can share that with you. =) Link to full cover: https://imgur.com/a/YrzVqNg

Revenge (1)

There had been trouble, but not more than Sturm had expected. Most of the guards had been spared by him, just like at the gate. Luckily, Lapi, the shield scribe, had failed to identify him. The most likely cause was that he was simply blinded by the bright lightning. 

Other guards, like the ones he had encountered in front of a tavern, had threatened to kill him and his whole family if he did not surrender. Their attitude showed their arrogance, and the way they immediately attacked before Sturm could even respond demonstrated their despicableness. 

Not like their approach was wrong. One had to use every means possible to eliminate imminent threats, but Sturm did not appreciate being the target of their little tricks. Before they could even realize their mistakes, lightning had already reduced them to ashes. In the end, it was nothing more than self-defense, so Sturm's conscience was clear.
