《The Bloodline System 》Chapter 301: Five Year Quests
Advertisement
[Five-year quest has been issued]
This was the first time Gustav was being woken up by a quest, so he knew it had to be serious.
Gustav opened up his notification panel to check out what the quest details were all about.
---------------------------
[Quest]
[Located Dimension six in planet Humbad]
----------------------------
Gustav stared at the panel with a look of astonishment as he read the details of the quest internally.
"Dimension six in planet Humbad?" He muttered with a look of confusion.
In the next instant, his eyes suddenly widened as he remembered something.
"Planet Humbad... The home planet of the Slarkovs..." Gustav muttered after recalling this from the historical books.
"Why would the system be issuing me an invalid quest. The planet was destroyed long ago, which was what caused them to relocate back to earth... How does it expect me to find this dimension six within a planet that has already been destroyed?" This looked extremely confusing to Gustav, so he decided to ask the system.
'Hey System... Why give me a quest to find somewhere that doesn't exist?' Gustav said internally.
("Who says it doesn't exist?")
The familiar cute, and thin, feminine voice resounded in his mind.
'Planet Humbad was destroyed thousands of years ago, so how do I find a place within a planet that doesn't exist anymore?' Gustav asked with a slight expression of annoyance.
("I ask again who says it doesn't exist anymore?") The system voiced internally once again.
'Hey, did you forget about the part where I mentioned it was destroyed thousands of years back? According to the history books, the Slarkovs descended to earth because they predicted the destruction of their planet, which eventually got destroyed,' Gustav argued with the system since the quest was practically impossible with these facts.

("You are really a dumbo...")
The system insulted Gustav.
Gustav; "..."
("They predicted the destruction of their planet and left... But were they there to see its destruction?") The system asked.
'Of Cou...' Gustav paused midway and placed his hand on his chin with a look of contemplation.
'What exactly are you trying to say?' Gustav asked, 'Are you saying planet Humbad might still be in existence?' he added with a look of disbelief.
("Who knows? Just make sure the quest is completed. Sooner or later, you'll discover the truth if you dig deep enough,") she voiced out before turning quiet.
Gustav didn't bother trying to bring the system back to this topic because he knew all too well that the system would stop replying to him at this point.
'Could it really be possible that the planet still exists? But it was said in the history books that hundred of years later, a research team was sent from earth to investigate. They found nothing in the part of the galaxy where planted Humbad used to be,' Gustav couldn't wrap his head around all this.
It was all too confusing, but he had decided to dig deep and do proper research about it.
Due to this, Gustav had even forgotten to check the other details of the quests for the rewards, so he decided to check them now.
---------------------------
[Rewards For Quest Completion]
[+5 A Grade Bloodlines Unlocks]
[Class Level Up]
[+100,000,000 EXP]
[+3 Unique Skills Unlock]
[All Abilities: Evolutional Upgrade]
[Original Bloodline Level Up: S-grade]
---------------------------
Gustav's eyes widened slightly as he saw them, 'These are too good to be true,' He was pleasantly surprised by the bountiful rewards.
'Class level up... I can't even use the power of my current class,' Gustav smiled wryly as he stared at this.

'Hey System, one more question... Any idea on how to use this power called YARKI?' Gustav asked internally.
("Figure it out yourself or there's no point,") The system responded.
'Thanks for nothing,' Gustav said internally with a look of repression.
Gustav went back to checking the rewards and nodding with a look of delight after reading each one of them.
'S grade... Does such a bloodline actually exist?' Gustav wondered as he stared at the last reward.
("Have you checked out the punishment?") The system suddenly asked while Gustav was contemplating.
'Oh yeah, you and punishments... It's probably gonna be hidden like the others, right?' Gustav said internally with a scoff while looking further downwards.
-------------------------
[Punishment For Failure]
[Death]
[Duration]
[Five years]
[Host will meet his end if the quest is not completed within the time frame required]
--------------------------
Gustav's eyes widened as he noticed the punishment.
"What is with you and death? You try to kill me on our first encounter, and from what I remember, you once gave me a quest with punishment as death... Should I remind you that you also wouldn't survive without me?" Gustav said with a tone of annoyance.
("I'd prefer to meet my end than to remain within a useless host,") The system replied with an uncaring tone.
Gustav; "..."
("Besides... If you cannot complete these quests, you have no hope of taking on what is to come which will eventually lead to death, so failure leads to death either way,")
The system foreshadowed again.
Gustav's had a look of contemplation as he heard that. It was obvious that the system had a lot of things it was keeping from him, which caused him to worry.
He didn't want to end up failing due to lack of information, but he understood that the system had built-in protocols that prevented it from sharing everything.
He just hoped that just as it had put this quest out, the process of completion would cause things to be revealed to him slowly.
"Wait... You said quests?" Gustav's mind went back to a few moments ago, where the system used plural form instead of singular.
("Yes... Did you assume there was only one quest?") The system responded with a ridiculing tone as if it was trying to say Gustav was too lazy.
Gustav; "..."
[Another Five-Year Quest Has Been Issued]
A new notification suddenly popped up in Gustav's line of sight.
He wasted no time in requesting for the full details of the notification to be displayed.

Paradigm Shift - New Beginnings
The known universe is facing an invasion from a foe that can rewrite the natural laws and that will destroy everyting we know. Derrick is ripped from his world and sent to the newest incursion point of an enemy he doesn't even know exists. He is the hail mary or kitchen sink of the universe and it will be up to him to adapt to his new world and become strong enough to survive and to save the universe. ********* Author's Note ********* This is my first published book so feedback would be appreciated. A couple of caveats. First this story is about the details, if you don't enjoy reading and finding the easter eggs or just like to speed read through the chapters you will probably not enjoy it. Second for those that do not like the Harem tag I just want to state that this is going to be a matriarchal society and the women will outnumber the men 5-1. That being the case and because of the culture that I imagine would arise from this I felt it fair to put that tag out there. However, the main character isn't going to be picking up women left and right. This is not a typical harem story. Image was googled so I have no rights to it

A Fool's Journey, or the Vagrancies of a Man in Exotic Lands
What does a sad bastard do when fate, literally, decides to throw him into a fantasy world? Solon just wanted to lead a normal life; work, share some pizza with friends, work, play some videogames or read something, work, maybe sleep?, work... Pretty much the usual, rinse and repeat. It was far from perfect, but life was nicely boring and comfy enough. Truth be told, he had hoped it would go on forever, or until he got married, or until the apocalypse finally decided to bring an end to everything. As far as he could tell, though, the former was about as likely as the latter; not very. And perhaps even somewhat related, if it ever came to it. Unfortunately, he saw himself involved in some sort of cosmic fart that screwed him over, brutally severing his life-plan. Or, maybe, would it be more suitable to say that Fate had other plans? Sure, he's yet to find out exactly what those plans might be, but, at the very least, they do seem to involve him being shoved into another world, fighting off a couple of horrendous creepers, and -almost- an accidental liaison with a baboon. Needless to say, the job doesn't come with dental care, and death seems more likely than retirement... Yep, when he got yoinked out of Earth, there were no princesses waiting for him, no sexy goddesses, and no severe Gandalf-wannabes! Heck, not even a bunch of demonic cultists! All he got for the trouble was a bunch of snarky windows and the honest desire to punch whatever bastard happens to be behind the smug System. Well, that, and a few forced trips to the so-called Tower of Ascension. Not exactly what he would have expected but, on the plus side, he does get to do some magic. Though, not quite the wand-waving kind. Whatever. One thing’s patently clear, though, he’s certainly not the chosen one, nor the summoned hero, nor the Savior. If anything, he himself might be in need of some saving... Just what kind of fool does the System take him for? Please do consider the tags. Also, 'Strong Lead' here means weak to strong, over a decent amount of time, not op from the very beginning. Things to expect: decent grammar, cheeky goats. Things not to expect: Harems, a decent sense of fashion.
