《Hunting for jade beauties~ A trash novel》22. Murderhobo
Advertisement
I don’t even remember what my level is.
That’s because the system went weird last week.
Instead of numerical stats it shows
[Next level progress: ???/???]
It’s almost as if some virus got in, or some Random Omnipotent Being arbitrarily decided to mess with me.
Depressed, and still not knowing what to do about the entire Sadie situation, I walk alongside the shore and ponder my miserable situation.
Btw, the shore here means the shore of a small canal where the sewage is drained to a nearby river. The closest seashore is thousands of kilometers away.
Suddenly, I stumble upon a hobo. It’s the same guy who wanted to kidnap my Finalndia the other day, and now it seems he found another damsel to pray upon.
She was a furry.
A small, white kitten, mercilessly toyed with by a large ugly bastard.
[Quest: save the damsel in distress]
No need to tell me twice. I know what “playing on a cat is”.
The bastards break their tails and squeeze the animal as if it was a living accordion, producing a wide array of screams, and not letting people sleep late at night.
Supposedly, the way you squeezed makes a different sound...but nevermind that.
I sneak upon the hobo from behind. Busy with the cat, he doesn't notice my approach.
[Sneaking successful, +5 exp]
What’s the point of giving me these? I can’t see the progress to the next level anyway….
I whip out a blackjack. The blackjack is a club-like item used to knock out hostiles unharmed. You just have to swing it widely overhead, and then bam. (Don't ask me where I was hiding it until now, let's just say my inventory is infinite and leave it at that)
The club makes a dull noise as it crushes against the back of hobo’s head. He falls forwards, limp….

...see? Just like in a popular stealth game!
….and then rolls down the sewage canal.
….uh, it would be bad if he drowned.
I walk down and turn his torso around, trying not to touch it too much. It stinks worse then the literal shit it fell into.
The damsel in distress meows loudly and runs away.
Ingrate! She could have at least joined my harem. After all, a cat is fine, too...
[Quest successful! +20 exp!]
But maybe furries only join harems if they are purchased as slaves first….
More importantly, what am I gonna do with this hobo? Slowly, a puddle of blood forms behind his head, and now I know I’m in trouble.
I don’t need to check if he’s alive. I know he’s not.
That’s because over my head, a read “PK” appeared, and a skull image next to it.
“The fuck” I exclaim loudly to no one in particular “I was just doing as the quest told me!”
[That’s because you’re doing side quests like an imbecile, instead of coming back to the main quest already]
….What?
[Your level-ups are frozen until you progress the main story. All the exp you get now is meaningless.]
….What??
[But that wasn’t enough to motivate you, you lazy suka, so now I made you a player killer too. The only way to erase that is to go to Sadie and fulfill your destiny!]
Who the fuck are you!?
[I am...ROB...the master of this pocket dimension!]
And so, the plot thickens.

Star Dragon's Legacy
Millennia have passed since the Dragons had found us. Millennia have passed since they left us, separating the world in plumes of eternal rainbow fire. Millennia have passed since people began to wonder: were we worth saving? Dragons were beings of myth. Now, people do what they can with the magic that works best for them, while trying not to get on the bad side of any powerful fae or nobles. A rare few are afforded the chance to meet credible proof of the Dragons, the undisputed heirs and heroes of this declined age: The Scaled. These Children of Dragons are stronger, hardier, and some would say far smarter that other humans, differentiated only by the horns on their head and scales on their skin. Rael is...not one of them. But Rael does need to protect one. Any and all feedback is appreciated. Don't touch the Patreon button, I still haven't finished setting it up.

The Eternal Vigil
The year is 2220, a time when governments and nation-states are slowly becoming a thing of the past. Instead, all prominent parts of human society are now organizing around the commands of three great Artificial Intelligences, owned and operated by the world's largest corporation. World peace has been achieved, and the very word 'politics' has disappeared from people's lips. Religion has largely disappeared, replaced in some parts by worshipping of the great AIs, but mostly substituted by a devotion to material goods and faith in the market. There is now a general consensus that the best form of government has been found. No, it is not democracy, nor is it autocracy or oligarchy. Instead, it is technocracy - rule by the learned, the intelligent, and the skilled. And who are more learned, intelligent, and skilled than the great AIs? Exactly, no one. The AIs will correct some market failures once in a while, but shall otherwise let the market be free. After all, the freer the market, the freer the people. Some may question how society advanced to this stage, but that is all they will do - question. Because they will not find answers, for history is no longer taught anywhere. After all, it is not a practical subject. One cannot get a decently paying job with a history degree. Society doesn't have any time for people to idly ponder about the past. No, this is a practical society of practical people: engineers, doctors, lawyers, developers, managers, bankers, soldiers, and the such. My name is Aiden Scivit and I used to be one such practical man: minding my own business, doing my job, with the faith that hard work will always be rewarded by the market...and that politics and philosophy were things thought of by idly people who leech off society. But this all changed, and here is my story, my history. Just because the stories of ages long past have been erased, does not mean that a brand new beginning cannot be created. The story is already finished but I still need to do some editing so a chapter should be released each day for a month. It is a bit political, as you can probably tell by the introduction, so there is that (it will low-key read like a philosophy dump 10% of the time, so really it's like Atlas Shrugged but liberal and worse lol). Also, I actually wrote this in grade 10 as part of my MYP Personal Project, and recently touched up on it for online publication. Finally, if you find the writing style passable and are interested in my other works, check out the one in the link below. It is a fantasy set in the Ancient Greek world, and is completed and uploaded in full: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/35099/the-oresteia-modernized

Swarm: A post-apocalypse urban fantasy story
Ricardo 'Rick' Reyes, an ageing, unhealthy 3rd generation English-Spaniard estranged from family, and alone for a long time, one day comes across news of a new startup developing nanotechnology for medicine. He contacts them om a whim, invests in their company, and puts his name forward. He eventually hears back and is invited to trials. As part of the process, he was subjected to physical and mental tests, including cryosleep to test nanite effectiveness in near-absolute-zero temperatures. He wakes up an untold amount of time later, to find everything had changed. The world around him had become something else. Society had collapsed, the world was rebuilding, and a number of nanite-induced changes have taken place among all life on the planet. Now, Rick must rediscover himself in this new world, find his purpose, and hopefully find and meet with others like him from the old world.
