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.

Temple of Doom, Part 1

“Hey, Triple-A… am I using this thing right?” Sam was frowning at the round bronze object he held in his hand.

As a prize for winning against Achilles in the last of three spars, Sam was given an ancient astrolabe that the fallen hero promised would help him find his way around the underworld. It was a complicated-looking device; a bronze metal disc with patterns of wires, gears, and cutouts small enough to fit in his palm like a modern compass might.

Sam wasn’t sure how an ancient astronomical instrument could help him in Hades though as he knew from his time in school that an astrolabe needed stars to perform various functions. There there were no stars in the underworld’s bleak sky though.

“This astrolabe is special. It does not use the stars of the heavens to determine time or latitude but the stars that have fallen across this fel land and taken root here,” Achilles had revealed earlier.

“These fallen stars… they’re pieces of the heavens?” Sam had asked.
