Blood Evolution System Chapter 44
Advertisement
After sitting there and evaluating the performance of the temporary students, Theodore and his juniors came across a lot of talented youngsters belonging to families of different status that managed to score better than John.
"Congratulations on passing the second assessment! You've all been rewarded with contribution points equal to your result in this test. You won't be able to use them for now, but they will become useable after you become permanent students," Theodore said once all the students were done with the test of titan's strength. "As it is only a few hours away from midnight, the third and the fourth assessment will be held tomorrow. In the meantime, you can do anything you like. Rest if you want to or take a look around the majestical tower, it's all up to you!"
When the instructor of combat made his announcement, a lot of the examinees exhaled a sigh of relief, some sitting down on the ground with legs crossed, some leaning against the walls with eyes closed, some standing straight seemingly having no intention of resting as they find it beneath them to rest on the ground like the commoners.
"I got 10 contribution points but it's greyed out," a student said as his gaze curiously scrutinized the card held in his hands. "It's like the instructor said, we won't be able to use them until we become permanent students."
"Yeah, you are right. It's the same for us. We have the points but we can't use them."
"It kinda sucks."
The students talked with each other, as the instructors finished the fifth cup of coffee and placed the cup on the wooden table.
"Hey, instructor, can I get a room with a bed? I couldn't sleep a wink last night," a student with a bald head spoke in a rough manner that sounded unpleasant to the ears. His name was Geom 13th or just Geom. One could see an exhausted expression on his face as his legs were sprawled on the floor and his body supported by his arms.

Honestly, it wasn't just him that wanted to lay down on a bed and sleep, a lot of the students that have never once sat down on the ground in their entire life also wanted to get a room for themselves, but they didn't have an ounce of authority in this place and purchasing a room without the help of an authoritative figure impossible in the cloud tower.
Kayle stood up and walked to the front of the raised platform.
"A suite has been assigned to every one of you. The Droids holds the master cards. Get in line with the others or wait in your place to get the master card. Tomorrow, it will be the last day of the examination. You will all be called to gather here early in the morning. So, go and rest early."
Kayle stepped back once she made her announcement and instructor Theodore stepped forward.
"I advise you to not stay up late. Make sure to be in your best state, as your mental and physical health concerns both your placement in the next assessment and allocation of resources provided by the academy to the examinees according to their grades." Theodore gave hints about the upcoming test to the temporary students with a smile.
After he said those words, the instructors took the backdoor to teleport to their respective floors
"One thing is for sure, our mental strength will determine our grade in the next test. I'm looking forward to it," Varth Hollow thought with squinted eyes, as he stepped forward to get in line.
The students stepped out of the room after a while, one by one, by taking the rather large corridor. One could see that a card with cloudy patterns was held in their hands. Once they were in their respective room, they found out that a single room was shared between two examinees.

"Ah, well, whatever. Hey, I don't know who you are and I don't wanna know. If you want there to be peace then just don't disturb me. I only wanna sleep peacefully right now," Geom said to his roommate as he then laid down on the small, soft bed placed on the left side of the room and quickly entered the world of dreams. He was tired and needed to sleep urgently to recuperate his energy and spirit.
The students that shattered their bones were taken to the infirmary. It was located just around the right corner of the examination room. The students were examined by Jun Park–the student of instructor Kayle.
"Hmm, you are fine. However, try not to repeat such stunts in the future. Healing has a certain limit and a day might come when it becomes ineffective on your body. You can delay the inevitable by following what I say," Jun Park said to Nevis Truemight.
"I will do as you say. Thanks for everything that you have done for me," Nevis replied as he looked at Jun with eyes expressing gratitude.
This was one of those times that warms his heart, as well as makes him believe in humanity and love all over again. After all, there weren't a lot of people that showered him with kindness but there were a lot of people that showed the cruelty of the world and the monstrous side of humanity called hatred and jealousy.
"No problem. I was just doing my duty," Jun replied. "The next assessment will be held early in the morning. Until then, you can rest here."
"Thanks once again," Nevis said.
"Call me if you need anything," Jun said as he headed for the terrace. Once he was there, he lit up a cigar, inhaling the smoke with an expression of intoxication and cooly puffing rings of clouds.
A while later, Nevis looked around the room he was in while streaming the aftermath of the test to his viewers, and he saw two others in the room. Except for him, Vincent and John were also in the room, laying on the bed, sleeping soundly.

Fantasy World Epsilon 30-10
New Dive Assignment: 0B5 Personnel: Citizen of Gamma G-037-072 Jonathan Kelly World Designation: Epsilon H-037-072-030-010 Classification: Pre-industrial Exotic World, significant outliers in biosphere including atypical flora and fauna. Quarantine protocol in effect pending more data and acclimation testing. Further anomalies include populations of morphologically distinct humanoids, and aberrations in otherwise normative physics laws. Causal chain appears provisionally stable. For the purposes of delaying onset of collapse as well as above mentioned factors, only one subject is cleared to Dive. Initial mandates shall proceed with scouting and surveillance. Further details are classified. Warning: All other qualifying personnel are currently dispatched. Refusal will result in deployment delays and possible unsupervised causal decay. Do you wish to accept this assignment? Note to Readers: This is not MC isolated in a new world. This is new world joins the multiverse. What I'm tentatively coining Subverted Isekai (Formerly I used 'reversed' but, as pointed out, that would be fantasy MC goes to the modern world. Hey, there's idea! Not this book though.). There is plenty of scientific and philosophical stuff; I know that can be a turn off for some. It has a strong bearing on the story, but is mainly covered in the 'Comments & Calculations' section (optional reading of course). If you are looking for an extreme suspension of natural laws with no technical considerations, you will not find it here. Formatting Notes: Audio chatter from characters that are not currently in the scene I format in "inverted commas and italics". Given the layered nature of modern communication, I thought this distinction was best denoted visually in my prose. Critique is welcome. Language Notes Jon is a South African ex-pat. As such he will use some Afrikaans colloquialisms plus a dash of Japanese. Most importantly he says “Ja” meaning “Yes”. Pronounced with a J sound like “yo” and an A sound like “bar”. As in: “Yo, let’s go to the strip bar.” “Ja.” And not the Rastafarian /jya/. Other words: Nee - /niya/ : no Juffrou - /yif-row/ : Miss Lekker - /lacker/ : nice, good, delicious Nooit - /noit/: never The rest is mostly swear words. Indisputably the most useful words in any language and simultaneously holding the least innate meaning. Fok - “fork” without the “r”: fuck Bliksem - /Bluksim/: darn, damn. Also common noun meaning damn person or thing. Donner - “Dorner” without the “r”: originally meaning thunder, can also mean darn or damn. It is often used as a verb meaning: ‘to hit hard’ Kak - /kuck/: shit Voetsek - /foot-sack/: go away

Killstealer
Unfinished - Apologies to anyone who was reading but I have no current intentions to revisit this story Alex was stuck in a rut: He was nearing thirty, and his career seemed to be going no-where; He used to have plenty of friends at university, but had gradually lost touch with them. He had recently started using a dating site, but truthfully he never quite got over his ex. It could be worse; he didn't spend his nights wallowing in self pity. However, he had a sinking feeling that his life was going no-where fast. When Alex decided to take up an old hobby all he really was looking for was something fun to do on friday nights. Thrust into another world by a mad mage Alex must adapt quickly to survive. Unfortunately, Alex showed up late to game night and ends up stuck with a pretty mediocre character in this game like reality. Alex must learn to survive in this new world; just because it all seems like a giant game doesn't make death any less terrifying. This will be my first attempt at writing litrpg. I wanted to set myself the challenge of writing every week and I think knowing people might be reading it will motivate me. I've always worked much better with external deadlines. FAQ Why should I read this LitRPG? I am writing because I enjoy it and you should read it if you enjoy it. If I had to make an elevator pitch I would start off by saying my MC is a rogue type character, which seems a relatively uncommon character at least based on what I have read. I also strive to make the supporting cast three dimensional characters, and not just caricatures. Finally, I can't forget that this is a LitRPG so I have tried to make a RPG system with depth, and one that makes sense. How often will you release chapters? At least once a week is my goal. I am a nurse with a baby at home, so between my hospital and my baby I won't have time for more unless something dramatically changes. Will there be romance? I won't rule it out as I try to let my characters write their own stories. However, there will NEVER be a harem, it just isn't something I am interested in. Gore, Profanity, and Traumatising Content? I don't intend to have any of these present at obscene levels, but my tolerance might be different to yours. The tags are mostly there to cover me.

RETURN, A Dark Lord story.
Return, Synopsis In the Triangulum Galaxy, one of a number of galaxies controlled by the Empire of The DARK LORD, JENNA OF CHRISTOS finds herself on the run after she killed a patrolman. Becoming pilot on a pirate craft, several years later she and other pirates are devastated by attacks of the Imperial Legion and are now trying to regroup. Seeking funds that will help them hide out for a time, their leader THURGOD DRISTA and JENNA meet with a PROFESSOR of galactic history who gives them information, a map and an ancient artifact described as a singing stone. He tells them that this could lead them safely to a legendary treasure trove, called THE DARK LORDS HOARD, on the forbidden planet TRILLA. The hoard is supposed to belong to the ruler of the empire who vanished close to one thousand years before and is presumed to be gone. The treasure is believed to be hidden in a tunnel accessible from the planet surface but no one who has gone into the tunnel has ever come out alive or sane. Leaving the pirate hideout immediately after the meeting and avoiding a major attack by the legion, the pirates travel to the galactic rim for supplies and to leave a false trail. With them they take the PROFESSOR and ILISA, a serving girl. However CAPTAIN TRASKA the commander of a Legions task force called Detachment T, has guessed the pirates intentions and tracked them to the rim. The pirates leave on their next leg to TRILLA unaware that CAPTAIN TRASKA with his force of heavy cruisers, is already there and lying in wait for them. Allowing the pirates to land, including an unexpected second pirate ship, CAPTAIN TRASKA sends a force of troopers to capture both craft and their guards. Before they can do this, THURGOD, the PROFESSOR and others, numbering thirteen altogether and led by JENNA entered the tunnel complex. JENNA, warned by ILISA that she must be the one to hold the singing stone, carries it in the hope that it will guide her and her companions past the many dangers in the tunnel. Shortly afterward, VIS VISTRICER the Legions overall commander travels to Trilla in an armoured planetoid, a spacecraft as large as a moon. On his arrival at TRILLA, VIS VISTRICER meets with CAPTAIN TRASKA but before they can do much, they are both surprised by one of the LADIES OF THE CIRCLE who is waiting for the outcome of what is happening in the tunnels. In the tunnels, JENNA leads THURGOD and the rest of party through many dangers and tests. Four are killed in the tunnels but the rest finally come to their goal where, to their surprise, in a cavern they meet the DARK LORD who is alive and very well. He has been waiting for them so he can return to the Empire. JENNA finds out that the patrol officer is alive and that she and many others have been manipulated all this time by the DARK LORD. She also finds out that ILISA, whose real name is JURA, is a member of the CIRCLE OF LADIES and was sent to teach JENNA many years before on her home planet of Christos. The DARK LORD restores and fulfills a promise to release JURA from her service as a LADY. He next has each pirate declare their own fate and takes them to the surfaces of TRILLA. There, at their election, he executes two of the pirates while JENNA is pardoned and some have the death penalty reprieved. The rest will face the courts of the Legion. VIS VISTRICER is raised to the rank of STAR COMMANDER, the highest rank in the Legion while TRASKA becomes a COMMODORE. The DARK LORD returns to Tihab, the administrative centre of the empire. There he takes up his residence in a surprised and disconcerted imperial palace. JENNA is returned by COMMODORE TRASKA to the planet Christos where she is welcomed by the planets rulers and her family, some of whom were aware of some of what was happening.
