I Have A Miniature World Chapter 14

Gods!
In the distant past, gods were synonymous with power.
Who would not want to have a relationship with a god, even if it was just a tiny bit?
This was equivalent to having a guarantee.
Just like this time, their Kingdom of Wisdom suffered the worst famine in thousands of years.
If they asked the gods, they would all starve to death.
Even if they were lucky enough to survive, they would be swallowed up by other great countries.
When the two armies fought, the most important thing was food.
Without food, the army would not be able to eat, and they would be hungry. But, then, how would they have the strength to fight.
Who knows, because of a small famine, they might end up losing their country.
But luckily, they had the help of the gods.
The problems they encountered would definitely be solved easily.
...
In the small courtyard.
The sound of ding dong kept ringing in Emerson's mind.
This was the sacrifice of knowledge from the Lilliputian Kingdom.
"Ding dong, your believers have offered you a cultivation technique, the true spirit heart technique."
"Ding dong, your believers have offered you a cultivation technique, the god-destroying finger."
"Ding dong, your believers have offered you a cultivation technique, the grand moon divine technique."
"Ding dong, your believer has offered you a cultivation technique, 'true understanding of primordial chaos'."
The incessant sounds in his mind caused Emerson's ears to ring.
Emerson immediately blocked them.
In any case, all of this was handled by the system, so it would not have much of an impact.
It could be said that in a short instant, the entire book of the Kingdom of Wisdom was offered.
"Very good!"
The cultivation technique in the viewer's mind made Emerson very satisfied. His path of transcendence was about to begin.

These were the keys to opening the path of transcendence.
However, one had to give something to gain something.
Emerson was well aware of this principle.
Since they had sacrificed so many martial arts manuals, it was time for him to do something.
"I accept the martial arts manuals that you have sacrificed. What do you wish for?"
At this moment, Emerson's voice sounded out. It was like the sound of the Great Dao, echoing in the minds of Eli and the others.
"We've succeeded. We've pleased the Lord God."
Hearing the voice that flashed in their minds, Eli and the others were ecstatic. They were all dancing with excitement.
This meant that they were saved.
The entire Kingdom of Wisdom was saved.
The first sacrifice of the heart of wisdom had averted the calamity of the Kingdom of Wisdom and destroyed the Thunder God Empire.
As a result, their territory expanded, and their population increased to more than a billion.
This time, they had obtained an equivalent wish.
"Your highness, what kind of wish should we make?"
An important minister asked.
Eli still remembered the scene of the Thunder God Empire. "We can not be too greedy. We must obtain an equivalent wish. Only then will we be able to satisfy the Lord God!"
"Now that a calamity has descended from the heavens and a great drought has descended, should we ask the god to send rain to eliminate the calamity!"
Someone suggested.
"No!" King Eli instantly rejected. "The problem we are facing now is a lack of food. Even if the gods were to rain down, we wouldn't be able to get enough food in a short amount of time. By the time we get there, we'll be starving. So what we need most now is a lot of food to help us through this difficult situation."

"The king is right!"
Hearing this, everyone nodded. Although the disaster is very terrible, they should be more worried about the famine that comes after.
As long as there was food, they would not be afraid of any natural disaster.
Their thoughts just now were too old-fashioned.
They had not thought of the crucial matter.
At this moment, they looked at King Eli with respect.
They had thought far ahead, considered the overall situation, and looked at the overall situation.
This was worthy of being a qualified emperor.
Obviously, Prince Eli had done well.
"Great God, your most loyal follower Eli, sincerely prays to you. We need a large amount of food."
At this moment, Prince Eli spoke his wish to the statue.
And this voice.
Along with the power of faith, it traveled hundreds of millions of miles and entered Emerson's ears.
"Food, this is too easy."
Hearing the voice in his mind, Emerson smiled. If it were any other wish, it would not be easy to compete.
Food to eat, this was too easy.
Although the miniature world, the Kingdom of wisdom, had more than a billion people, they were too small.
In his world, a grain of rice was enough for them to eat for a week.
Thinking of this, Emerson did not hesitate. Instead, he walked straight into the kitchen and chose a bag of 100 jin of rice.
He directly used the system's spatial ability to teleport over.
This function could teleport not only living things but also objects.
As long as he entered the corresponding coordinates, he could teleport at a fixed point and accurately arrive at the designated location.
"The Kingdom of Wisdom!"
After entering, a portal that gave off an ancient aura appeared.
Emerson sent the rice directly into the portal.
...
On the other side, King Eli and the others waited quietly.
Suddenly, the voice of the Great Dao resounded in their minds.
"Your wish has been fulfilled."
As soon as he finished speaking, Eli saw a ball of light appear in the distant sky.
This ball of light suddenly appeared.
Immediately after, the originally gentle ball of light suddenly became dazzling, and a pitch-black hole appeared in the middle.
An ancient, desolate, and majestic aura floated out from within.
At this moment, everyone in the Kingdom of Wisdom felt their bodies sink, as though they had walked into a quagmire, unable to move.
Boom.
It was like a whistling sound.
Under their astonished gazes, countless white meteorites rolled down from above.
Each of them was the size of a small mountain, and the air rustled as they rubbed against each other.
As they crashed into the space in front of the kingdom, an earth-shattering sound rang out.
The entire land seemed to be unable to withstand this force, and it shook non-stop.
"Hiss! What... what is this?"
"Could this be the work of a God as well?"
"These white meteorites... what are they?"
After they had completely calmed down, these people hurriedly ran over, wanting to see what exactly these things were.
They had lived for more than half their lives and boasted that they knew the affairs of the world and had seen countless scenes.
This was really the first time they had seen these white meteorites.
The sudden appearance of the door of light made them understand even more clearly how terrifying the power of a god was.

Sword System Academia
2/17 NOTICE: I'm putting this on hiatus, possibly permanently. I didn't want to spam with an "update chapter", so hopefully here and in the story blurb will get enough eyeballs. There are a couple reasons for ending SSA for now. 1) I wrote the next chapter but wasn't happy with it. I've been less and less satisfied with SSA's quality the more I thought about it. Part of the reason is... 2) I am seriously thinking about trying to publish some novels to help pay the bills, since I don't have my other source of income anymore. I have never asked for anything from SSA readers, no money, not even a review or rating. SSA is written for fun to amuse myself, primarily, and I would kind of feel bad actually charging someone money for something as unserious as that. I don't think it is good enough to ask anything in return. To use an analogy from music, SSA is more like a jam session with a bunch of friends. You're just chiling and having fun playing some music. I mean, if you are Mozart or even Eminem, your jam session is good enough to sell, but for an amateur beginner like myself, haha, no. If I want to publish something, I feel like I need to go the proper route of practice and rehearsals, which might be more similar to a classical concert performance. With SSA, I work from worldbuilding notes and a loose outline, but what you are essentially getting is the first draft with lots of so-called pantsing. Pushing out a web novel like this also means it is very difficult to go back and improve things without breaking everything else downstream. I wanted to try this "jamming" approach, as it was a good way to teach me about another aspect of writing, but to move forward, I think I need to hone my "classical" techniques, which emphasize rewriting, or at least, revising outlines. 3) While I intend to try to make $$$, my actual current goal is to "get gud". I've spent a lot of time recently trying to understand the self-publishing industry, and I'm pretty sure I can make some money by using short-term strategies with my current amateur skill level. But I've seen too many authors come and go/burnout, and really, the only way that I think I can enjoy writing and still make money on a long-term basis is to become a better writer. And the next step for me, which I haven't done much before, is to spend more time on rewriting and outlines. That is pretty much antithetical to the way SSA is developing. I've always been kind of 20/80 plotting/pantsing, but I want to spend a lot more time outlining before I even start writing. SSA jam sessions don't really fit my goal anymore. If you're curious about what's next, read on... Among other regrets, I regret not finishing SSA. It's the first story I've dropped, but then again, it's the first web novel I've attempted, so I suppose that's not a surprise. I don't think traditional web novel formats suit me that well. The whole SSA story I had loosely planned (beyond a first book or major arc) is way too large as well. Big story = good for neverending webnovel with Patreons, bad for penniless and fickle writer like me. I am currently outlining a complete trilogy to another story in great detail. I want the story to end concisely, and I also want the chance to really spend a lot of time on the full outline to spot pacing problems, character issues, lost themes, and so on. I'll still share this story on RR. What I intend to do is finish book 1, flash-publish the whole thing here for a few weeks, then publish on the big Zon. Repeat for books 2 and 3. The upcoming story will be about crafting heroes. The backdrop is an isekai-like setting, where elves will summon humans to their world as heroes, but the whole hero crafting business is still in its infancy. The elven mage researchers are figuring out how to imbue heroes with power, while the heroes are trying to figure out how to use the powers that they gain. Humans are the best hero templates because they are blank and have no intrinsic magic. Or at least that what the elves thought. The human MC has his own secrets... There will be some similarities with litrpgs, but I would call it more a progression fantasy or gamelit story. For example, the stats are very low, at least initially. Say we have a stat called Str. Going from Str = 1 to Str = 2 is a huge deal. Also, going from Dex = 0 to Dex = 1 is an even bigger deal. I guess you could call it a "low-stat litrpg", haha. Also, the heroes won't be gaining stats simply by killing things or leveling up. You can't increase stats arbitrarily, either. There will be rules to how stats can increase, and how they work with each other. The elven mages will be figuring out these rules in order to craft stronger and stronger heroes. Some inspiration will be from cultivation magic systems, but there won't be overt cultivation, at least for now. A theme I really want to explore is the idea of interactions. That includes things like hero crafter vs hero, tactics vs strategy, skill synergies, racial interactions (dwarves, elves, etc), and son. Yeah, so hero crafting. I'm super excited about this project and venturing into publishing. If you want to check out the upcoming story, you can follow my RR author profile to see when it drops here. Finally... THANK YOU TO EVERYONE! I'm very sorry that SSA is stopping, but I hope at least some of you will find the next story at least as enjoyable, if not more. Thanks to all the readers who gave SSA a shot. Big hug or solid fistbump to all of you, whichever you prefer! I hope this message is not a downer but an upper, because I am psyched!! -purlcray -------------- BLURB: Talen, youngest Master of the Koroi, makes his way to the Empire's capital to salvage his clan's fate. But the bustling city has few opportunities for the traditionalist. For the old sword clans are fading. With the rise of alchemy, gold can purchase strength that ordinarily took years of training to cultivate. Sword artists, once rare and accomplished, are quickly growing in number, especially among the wealthy noble class. Even with such alchemy, though, no one has advanced to the rank of Grandmaster in countless years. Talen's true dream is to walk the path of a sword artist to the very end while fulfilling his clan duties. And then the Swordgeists return, fabled founders of all sword arts, gods who had touched the world long ago and vanished. These myths turned into reality warn of a coming threat. Alongside this warning, they issue an invitation to the Sword System Academy, a path to power beyond the mortal realm. But first, they will hold an entrance exam... Story notes:Sword System Academia blends elements of western and asian fantasy such as xianxia and litrpg. I took parts from different genres I enjoyed and twisted them into my own creation. There will be an explicit system, both of the litrpg kind and the hard(ish) magic kind, but it is embedded within an academic structure that will develop over the course of the story. This is my attempt to design a unique type of system, the System Academia.

"Well if you would have left me alone when I told you to, I wouldn't have had to do it," I fire back. He chuckles. "You don't know what you just got yourself into." "What do you mea--" I get cut off by his lips on mine. I freeze. What was happening? And why did it feel so good? Ryder grabs my waist and pulls me closer to him.
