Welcome to the Upward Bound System, V.3 Fantasy Comedy Action Adventure Supernatural
They say third times the charm. With every iteration we improve.
When the System came to Earth, it changed everything.
It is a grand thing used by gods and men alike.
What had once been fantasy was now a reality.
People believed and so that belief gave ideas the strength to manifest.
"Welcome Founder of the SCP Foundation"
It stirred the gods from their deathly slumbers.
Stirred by an almost mechanical voice promising them new life, and followers as countless as the stars.
All it asked of them was for their help.
Help with what though?
The old gods, the forgotten gods, and the new gods drew breath, and then made their voices heard.
On a day like any other Dante was home from college watching the Presidential inauguration with his parents. Little did they know that this day would turn out to be anything but ordinary.
That this was the day everything changed.
Dante is not your typical MC. While he has a troubled past, he looks forward to the future. Follow Dante, his parents, and the new friends he meets along the way as they traverse this new system world.
However, before they can explore this new world they must complete, the Tutorial.
(Please note: This tutorial will be part of the story. Rather than a skim of the information, you will get to experience it in depth. So the tutorial will last a good while.)
A much slower style of LitRpg than what you would normally find.
Follow Dante and his party as they find their world taken over by the system.
Welcome people of Earth to the Upward Bound System!...
With the system's arrival so too does great danger come...
The tools of your survival shall be granted upon you by the system...
Please note, I don't own the art.
Please enjoy the story, and if you don't please leave a comment and I will try to improve the story for you.
This is the second version of this story, so feel free to check out the original and compare the two.

Gifted with the power of the unique class, Spellthief, which allows him to absorb spells cast against him and cast them back at his foes, he swiftly learns to fight back, trampling his way into safer civilization. Shunned by adventurers, who see spellcasters like him as poor party members, Logan finds few allies, but his progress does not go unnoticed. As he gathers the personal strength to fend off wolves and goblins, he also attracts the attention of evil magi, eager to steal his powers. While he scrambles to find a way back home, will he even muster the will to do so? Or will he be seduced by the power of magic? Chapters have an average of 3,500~ words.

The Demon King Absolutely Has No Attachments
Welcome to Akoras Online, where the power lies in your hands. This sandbox virtual reality MMO has gained a dedicated community, but it has a catch: those who die in battle have their stats reset. Spending all his time on the server to escape his shut-in life, Kas is the only long-time player with a death counter of 0. However, his social skills are also a big 0, so he's condemned as the cold-hearted “Demon King”. Now, the number of players who actually like him is also 0. (Which is fine. He enjoys the peace and quiet.) However, Kas' dreams of being left alone are banished over and over by challengers with various grievances against him. Among them is Gabriel, the celebrity "Hero" of Akoras, who has just as much time on his hands as Kas. Seriously, Gabriel tries to fight him a lot. It’s getting kind of tiring… Wait, this guy isn’t even in high school yet! The (not-so) idyllic trials of a Demon King and a Hero, with a raging faction war in the background. Now updates on Tuesdays, with the odd chapter in between.
