Omni-Mastery Chapter 28

Battle apes were a very cooperative species.
Although there were three major tribes of battle apes in this forest, not only did they exist in harmony, but they also mixed together to form several habitats throughout the central forest.
Not even one of the three tribal chiefs tried to seize full control of the battle apes, they instead split leadership of battle apes among them quite fairly.
However, this peace didn't last long, the maverick, the black furred ape suddenly appeared and challenged the chiefs to individual battles.
The outcome was devastating, they all lost, and as a race that was called 'Battle' apes, they had to accept the victor's challenge and fight fairly. As such, although they could have won at that time if they teamed together, their tradition and pride didn't let them follow through.
The black furred ape became the Ape king and the battle apes submitted, the chiefs believed that maybe uniting under a single king might be for the better of the whole battle apes.
Unfortunately, things only got worse. The Ape king demanded sacrifices every month for the so called king of the beasts, and especially apes at higher training stages.
In fear of disharmony if they rebelled and fought him together, the chiefs grit their teeth as they accepted his demands.
The Ape king got stronger and stronger, until they finally realized what actually happened to the sacrifices.
However, it was all too late, they couldn't beat him with his current strength, even if they fought together.
Finally, the day that they feared really came, the Ape king captured the chiefs for his last part of the plan.
This ceremony was the last ceremony, but also the most important of them all.
As the Ape king's body had hit the limit once again, he decided to breakthrough these limits once again in this gamble.

I held the dagger That I had used in my battles through the swamp sector.
The 'Vital Dagger Strike' that I trained in also included dagger throwing techniques, it was only that I didn't use them as I wanted to train my close combat ability.
However, today was the time to do so. Although the dagger wouldn't pierce too deep into the target, it would at least cause a severe injury.
I threw the dagger precisely at the heart of the Ape king, if it was a normal battle ape, it would die from such a blow, but I didn't expect much as the target wasn't to be underestimated.
Gaaaaaaaaahhhh
A very ferocious howl came out from the Ape king.
'Was my dagger strike this effective?'
The response from the Ape king was kind of exaggerated, no matter what, the wound my strike caused couldn't have been the only reason.
Kuahhhhhh…...gahhhhhhh
The howls continued as another weird phenomena started to manifest, the Ape king's fur started changing color once again.
It looked like a chameleon who was adapting to the scenery, but the change happened chaotically.
In the end, the change stopped, but the Ape king looked even weirder.
Its main body and the leg he was standing on were now like a child's painting, that contained mixed colors of black, blue, green, and red. While its other three limbs had the individual colors of blue, green, and red.
The Ape king then stopped howling, as it stared at me fiercely.
I shuddered, it looked like the Ape king held quite the grudge.
This was going to be a very tough battle...

My class [Death Knight] is just barely legal...
Ever since meeting his uncle, Arthur has pushed himself daily to achieve an arbitrary goal. He trained like nobody else did, longer than anybody else could. He neglected his personal relationships to pursue something he didn't even understand, in hindsight. When the time came for his class awakening ritual, he was ready. He was ready to receive a powerful starting class and to break free from his boring lifestyle. Well, you know what they say, "Be careful what you wish for, lest your wish be granted." Arthur was assigned the death knight class, which is just barely, technically, maybe legal. With it, he learns about what drove him to such simple minded ambition in the first place: his affinity. Now, he's faced with a dilemma: will he embrace it, or reject it? 'My class [Death Knight] is just barely legal' is a laid back story with occasional tension, that describes Arthur, a young man, exploring the world, the system and his own mental health as he pursues his ambitions. This story is the first serious fiction I ever wrote, so while criticism is definitely welcomed, keep it polite. I'm going to rewrite the first few chapters at some point, since they're not as good as my later ones, but I'm focusing on my current chapters first. I don't have time to do both yet, since I'm also in the middle of my exams. What to expect from this story: -Litrpg elements -A chaotic good aligned protagonist (that starts off as a neutral good protagonist) -(Hopefully) interesting characters. What not to expect from this story: -Grimdark elements -Harem -An enslaved protagonist. (I mention this due to the background of the mc's class) Release schedule: 1 chapter every other day, 2pm European time (14:00) Join the discord here: https://discord.gg/YHZFB4HMHD

The version for sale is revised and expanded anyway, including a rewritten opening. If the book does well, that's encouragement to write more of it soon! Reviews are welcome too. As noted in the afterward, it's been fun and useful to share this work with all of you here as I worked on it. Update 2022/2/22: Wow, it did do well!

City of Roses
Jo Maguire, a highly strung, underemployed telemarketer, meets Ysabel, a princess of unspecified pedigree, and unexpectedly becomes her guardian and caretaker. Now Jo must make a place for herself among Ysabel's decidedly unusual family and friends—which calls for a bit more sword-play than most of us are used to—in a city where sinister high-rise condos are fought by a sprawling tea-house built out of scrap lumber, where ancient sea-gods retire to close-in Southeast apartments with lovely views, where duels take place in supermarkets, and the Devil keeps a morgue in an abandoned big-box store.
