《The destruction and creation system》Chapter 175 - Socializing
Advertisement
Nick ate the few dishes he had on his plate some of which he liked others not so much. most people had stopped paying attention to nick by the time he had finished eating , though a few people were still waiting for nick to do something exceptional since they were aware of his unique abilities for one reason or another. nick disposed of his plate and looked through the crowd of chatting people before he his gaze settled on an rather muscular young man with a coat of arms on his jacket. the young man was chatting amicably with a group of nobles so he was obviously important as a result nick decided it would only benefit him to leave a positive impression. nick started to walk towards the young man when he was stopped by a massive man with red hair and bulging muscles that were barely concealed by his fine blue suit. the man had a friendly smile as he held out his hand "hello there my name is wesley belios pleased to meet you." he said politely. nick shook the man hand "hello wesley my name is mark and the p.l.e.a.s.u.r.e is mine." nick didn't skip a beat even after being interrupted.
Wesley laughed heartily "truly a good fellow!" hes said jovially. "so mark I've heard an interesting rumor about you that i just had to confirm for myself and standing before you I'm honestly confused." he said honestly. nick understood at this point why wesley had came to him. "you are trying to figure out how i could be so strong if i am so thin correct?" nick asked calmly. wesley nodded "yes it truly boggles the mind since every person i have ever met with truly great strength were much like me in appearance." he said while flexing. nick nodded "the trick you see is not size but weight." he said calmly. wesley looked confused "i don't understand are you saying size and weight aren't the same thing?" he asked trying to understand. nick nodded "of course after all a wagon of feathers and a wagon of stone obviously weigh differently don't they?" nick asked simply. wesley looked enlightened "so if most people your size are feathers you are stone." he said in understanding. "but why are you different than everyone else?" he asked confused.

Nick laughed "rather obvious the answer to that question isn't it , i could not trade strength for speed so i simply developed in a way that improved both." he explained. wesley nodded "that does seem obvious but i don't understand how you did so." he said honestly. nick shrugged "i didn't question how i simply did." he lied. "well whatever , so am i right to assume you are going to after the throne?" he asked seriously. nick nodded and wesley laughed "i guessed as much , in truth i myself am going to try to compete as well." he said jovially. nick was surprised and it showed on his face "surprised aren't you , no need to answer it's all over your face , you must have some thoughts along the lines of how someone like me would want to be king." wesley said with a chuckle. "honestly my family has been running this kingdom in some fashion or another for generations so it's not that strange really." he explained honestly.

Of Gods and Dungeons
March 16, 2021 - Hiatus note: I will come back to this story! I'm really struggling with it, though. It's been a number of years and I kind of forgot what the original outline was. I still remember the main path, but not any of the details, because I stupidly didn't write an outline. Progress is being made. I'd like a very decent sized buffer before I start posting again. Don't want to get hopes up only to immediately disappoint! ----- Amy Barnes, an aspiring chemical researcher, finds herself dying from cancer. One of her most desperate prayers is answered in a way that she'd never dreamed possible, and she finds herself living a new life as a dungeon. Warning: Violence, morbidity Cover: Taken from here, courtesy of www.pexels.com by photographer @tookapic. Author's Note: I've read some dungeon core stories on here, and they've tickled my fancy. I've thought up a whole story, start to finish, and thought it'd be a blast to put it into words. Other than the violent and morbid aspects, this story is suitable for children. Aside from the vocabulary, that is. I will avoid the temptation to have any cursing, sexuality, or gore. Excessive gore, I suppose - it is a dungeon story, after all. I’ll do a little research from time to time, but this story will not have a great deal of rigor. I’ve made Amy’s knowledge comparable to my own for that reason. There’s a few things she knows more about than I do, and a few things that she knows less about. Unlike me, she doesn’t have access to Google - it’s a non issue for her to be more knowledgeable than me, on occasion :P This story does not use the same magic system that I’ve used in either Sorcery in Boston or A Summoner’s Confession. This one is mostly intention based, and designed to be easier access for people who are more used to the idea of, “It’s magic, therefore it works” kind of thinking. Do note that Amy is, in most senses of the term, overpowered. This goes along with the usual dungeon core stories. She’s not more powerful than other dungeons per se, but she does have knowledge and intelligence that puts them to shame. I thought about doing this in a LitRPG style, but systems take balance, and I wanted this to be pure fun to write.This story was inspired from a few sources. Despite the title, it wasn’t really inspired by Of Mice and Men, though some of the themes match. Rather, I’ve taken inspiration from a few dungeon core novels on Royal Road Legends for the main idea. Many conventions of dungeon core stories have been perverted from the genre, however. I’ve taken my usual science-loving self to town to play around with the powers, and I can only hope you have half as much fun reading this as I have had writing it.

My Hermit Life
My name is Solomon Ars Regis I am a veteran who lost both legs while on duty. One day after I was released from physical therapy early I came home to find my girlfriend cheating on me with my brother, feeling betrayed I scream at them to leave my house. A few hours of brooding later I decide to go to sleep. When I wake up I am in a forest in a different world. Hi this is my first story so please dont expect much. Disclaimer - I say hermit in that he lives in a cave in a giant forest with his wife and and master with occasional visits from his parents or other creatures. I do not use hermit in a religious sense or in that he lives entirely alone. The first few chapters are worse than some later chapters. If you can get through to chapter 24 you will find that the quality increases. I will do a rewrite eventually so look forward to that . . . . . if you want.
