Chapter 1

## Chapter 1 - What the fork? - Summary

The main character (later known as Gerald but as of yet unnamed) finds himself in the darkness, with the last thing he remembered being a flash of light.

He muses as to where and what he is with some confusion and much panic, until he accidentally activates the help function of The System. After some navigation through the menus, and given a choice between life and death, he picks life.

After doing so, he checks his status to find that his race is Living Fork. Naturally he protests, but soon simmers down as there is nobody to hear him, and it serves absolutely no purpose. After changing the command sensitivity of The System, Gerald checks his status in more detail, looking through his stats, titles and skills.

He is somewhat ecstatic upon seeing the absorb skill (which would allow him to absorb things to gain skills and/or traits), but quickly realises that with no way to see or hear anything in his surroundings, it will be difficult for him to use it effectively.
Chapter 15

## Chapter 15: Reminiscence

Ferdinand thinks back on how his life has changed since encountering Gerald.

Gerald explains some of the stats in The System, and begins to familiarise himself with the appearances of the crew of the ship, which he can now see due to mana sight's new proficiency level.

Richard steers the ship back to land, and reminisces about Rodney's life and eventual death.

Joe

> “Don’t mourn his death. Celebrate his life.” - Joe
>
>

Somewhat of an enigma, It is unknown exactly who or what Joe is, or even whether his name is Joe in the first place. First seen in Fiso city, he looked like a grimy old man, and he offered free fortune telling services from the side of a street, which have been proven to be at least somewhat accurate.

He left Fiso city in order to find something more interesting, leaving behind his crystal ball for whomever might find it. Forgoing conventional paths, he crossed the mountains in order to get to Liensport City, where Gerald and Ferdinand were at the time.

Since then, he has followed around Ferdinand and Gerald, doing very little.

As of chapter 34, he is a student at Wehttam Academy and has a 'game' going with Gerald where he will tell Gerald anything he wants to know (should Joe know it), given that Gerald meets his requirements. These have, so far, been very high level requirements. Taught by Mr Telen, Mr Thurston, Mrs Felt and Miss Kate in the first term at the academy. Learning all six of he basic elemental magics in his second term.

Although Gerald cannot see Joe with mana sight, implying that Joe has no mana in his body, Joe has displayed the ability to expel mana from his body, implying that he does have mana in his body.

## Powers

Although Joe has not yet actually fought, he has shown some supernatural abilities.

He seems to be able to become intangible at will, allowing attacks to pass through him and even his clothing without harm.

Other than this, he has shown considerable strength, balance and stamina in climbing through the steep mountain ranges between Liensport City and Port Acktown.

Chapter 45

## Chapter 45: Duplicity

Gerald theorises that he should be able to create a magic tool to allow him to see light, as well as a broader range of the electromagnetic spectrum, and begins work on it. As part of that, thinking about materials for the device, Gerald wonders whether he could simply shave pieces of himself off and use the self-repair skill to gain a simple supply of mithril.

However, instead of the split piece being just a shard of metal, it retains Gerald's consciousness simultaneously with the main piece. However, just as the shard is physically much smaller in comparison, it also retains a much smaller portion of their stats and skills. The offshoot decides that it doesn't want to continue on, weak in every way as it is, and so they decide to take a risk. The main piece of Gerald absorbs the smaller piece in the hopes that it will unite them and return things to normal - which it does.

Some time passes as Gerald attends classes, chats to Auden and works on his magic tool. The skills Gerald gains during the term allows his total skills to reach fifty, earning him the title 'Skilled', which allows him to rearrange the skills on his status. As such, he does so.
Chapter 28

## Chapter 28: A Lone Harpoon in an Empty Battlefield

The party goes to the mansion near Liensport City, and fight The Doppelganger.

Perspective switches to The Prince, who is lamenting his life and the series of events that led him to this point.

Perspective switches to Ferdinand. He feels rather helpless, unable to do anything in the fight but stand and watch. Lily and Luc do the lion's share of the work, with the priests healing any wound they take, Marco defending the priests, and the other paladins assisting in the fight.

Lily finds the necromancer's diary and thus the prince's identity.

Gerald leads Ferdinand to the place of Richard's death, and they build him a grave.

Chapter 41

## Chapter 41: Destruction Magic Practical Assessment

Gerald remarks on Joyce's general aggressiveness towards him and looks through his memories to find a bit more about possible reasons behind it, worrying that it could complicate his position at the academy if it were to progress from verbal to physical altercations.

Gerald talks to Iueia, Lamar and Spark about his previously being a human, and how he likely became a fork due to the interference of a god(s)/goddess(es). Lamar remarks that the god of death, being the god who oversees death, would probably be involved if there were gods interfering in his death.

Gerald summons a mid-tier earth elemental as part of his advanced earth summoning magic class, naming it 'Machite', a contraction of malachite, a greenish mineral.

As part of his advanced fire destruction magic class, Gerald and the rest of the class go out for a practical assessment: killing some monsters with fire magic. Part-way through this, however, Gerald spots a group of people coming towards them from the distance. He alerts the teacher, who doesn't believe that anyone would knowingly antagonise the academy.

Being paranoid, Gerald decides that it's best that he prepares for the worst, ditching his magic tools in favour of more manoeuvrability and inconspicuousness, leaving them in a small tunnel in the ground.

When the incoming group does eventually attack, Gerald creates another, smaller and less noticeable hole and bores deep into the ground. Their teacher attempts to defend against the incoming projectiles, but fails due to the fact that they aren't aimed directly at the group but around them, forming the basis of a magic formation. The resulting magic knocks everyone there out, actually stopping the hearts of most, with the sole exclusion of Gerald, as he is isolated underground.

The attackers restart any stopped hearts and stabilise the unconscious ones before putting them on carts and taking them to a solitary compound.

Temple of Sacrifice

Localizada ao sul de Metal City, o Temple of Sacrifice é um templo antigo, quente e cheio de lama, nas

profundezas de uma fenda entra as montanhas e Wastelands, onde flui um rio de águas contaminadas de Nuclear Grounds. No começo, esse lugar era uma opção discreta para o Secto do Metal sacrificar cidadãos considerado hereges. Longe dos olhares do povo de Metal City, prisioneiros desamparados derramaram sangue em sacrifício a um monstro – que agora descansa sonolento nos arredores dessa arena.

Com o passar do tempo, hereges foram controlados e subjugados, então o Secto passou a usar a arena com pilotos novatos de Heavy Metal. Cheia de curvas, lava e lama, os novatos devem provar seus valores carregando a bomba pelo lugar e entregando o objeto em um triturador. Como consequência, os pilotos inimigos são destruídos e moídos como sacrifício ao monstro que descansa.
