Chapter 1 – Prologue
Blood ran down his chin and to the ground. Woojin, who was dragging his ragged self, gritted his teeth as he saw the bloody water rise up from the altar.
The bloody water began drawing a magical rune in the air.
“STOP!”
Woojin tried to run with all his might. But soon, he fell to the floor and began crawling toward it. It was only then that the man incanting magic words toward the rune turned to him.
“You’re finally here.”
“Stop it, you bastard!”
The man scoffed as he snatched the naked woman from the altar and threw her at Woojin. The woman fell to the ground helplessly and Woojin quickly picked her up with shaking hands.
“E-Eunseo!”
It had been ten years since he had seen his sister. However, his sister was already an empty shell after her soul had been ripped out. Woojin shouted as he embraced his sister’s slowly cooling body but his shouts were drowned out by the roar of a tidal wave that appeared above the magical rune.
Woojin looked up and faced the giant being.
“HAHAHAHA! God is upon us!”
The man laughed like a maniac. He was the one behind everything. Woojin felt like he needed to avenge her to at least release some of his anger. He pulled out a small syringe and injected it into his thigh.
Cocktail-X. He remembered Doctor Ahn’s explanation that a human body could not endure it, but he didn’t care. The stimulant made from the blood of many avatars pumped energy into Woojin’s body. He jumped up and ran toward the altar.
The crazed man didn’t even care about Woojin as he looked up at the arising of a god. Woojin plunged his dagger into the man’s back.

However, the man was now an avatar of the highest-ranked demon named Amon, who had brought a god onto this Earth. He turned and threw a fist at Woojin. When Woojin dodged the fist, the man kicked him.
That’s when he realized what the man’s power was. Foresight.
When Woojin was kicked to the back, the god was finally upon them. The god who appeared after countless offerings of souls and blood looked grotesque.
Could that even be called a god? It was hard to describe its weird form. The dark matter seemed to divide into two as dark tentacles shot out from it and wrapped around Amon’s avatar.
It seemed that his foresight didn’t foresee his death.
Woojin looked at the god. There was only one reason for that being.
The fall of the world.
It didn’t matter to Woojin since he had lost everything. However, there was one thing that did matter.
“It’s because of you.”
If not for the summoning, his family and his sister would not have been sacrificed as offerings.
Woojin charged at that god in a blind rage.
“I’ll rip you apart!”
He couldn’t even fight Amon’s avatar, but that didn’t matter. He was only filled with thoughts to rip that being apart. As Woojin ran towards it, the god’s bloodshot eyes appeared from above. Woojin stopped. But the eyes soon lost interest, and tentacles came out from its mouth toward Woojin’s head.

8 120The Dragon Wakes
The world was never the same after Worldbreak. None of the world's best prophets, fortune-tellers, or soothsayers had ever predicted its coming, but no amount of forewarning could have helped. Monsters from far below the Earth's surface burrowed through the ground, killing everyone in their path. The militaries of the world, united in cause, could only hold on for a time. With the UN sputtering its last, dying breath, hope came in the form of a man appearing from a nuclear explosion. From a world of sorcery, his knowledge could have been the exact thing humanity needed. But his magic simply wasn't enough. Florian Cale didn't care. Anything that could see him reunited with his family half a world away was a chance he'd stake everything on. He'd learn magic, and he'd learn it well. Or else... he'd die trying. But really, weren't they all doomed anyway?
8 107Rise of the Business [Class]
'Rise of the Business [Class]' is a story about a world where humanity ended up fleeing through space, after suffering several great disasters at home. On arrival we crash-landed and were soon attacked by magic wielding civilizations who learned how to deal with our weaponry with a speed that belied their seemingly simplistic nature. We were lost. But eventually we survived by abandoning technology and adapting. But this tale takes place thousands of years later, after humanity has had time to rise and falter more than once. It tells of a time where we adapted too much, focusing only on combat and magic and learning to rely on the [System] that our ancestors built in order to compete and survive on this hostile planet with the others. This is a story about our final chance during a time when all of humanity is under siege again, where we struggled to adapt too late and ultimately had to learn how to summon a collection of people from Earth through time and space to come help - but not to the 'besieged time' but back a couple of hundred years - before it went too far down the wrong path, so they can hopefully change things enough to prevent a return to that timeline. Follow Livia as she is ripped from her favorite library and end up getting lucky, or unlucky? On her very first day on the Elderwood continent. While a trio of native lads excitedly leave home to find adventure, oblivious to how very soon they might end up entangled in the fate of the world. But the question that remains to be answered, that this first leg of the journey aims to find out; is what can a LitRPG bookworm like Livia do if called on to change humanity and prepare us all for the future, all before her 21st birthday? Find out soon, as we are finishing up book 1 in the coming two weeks. Cheers for reading this far, have a biscuit!
8 1078The Fight We Chose
"No one starts a war—or rather, no one in his senses ought to do so—without first being clear in his mind what he intends to achieve by that war and how he intends to conduct it."- Harold G. Moore November 22nd, 1963: The eyes of the world turn to the American city of Dallas, Texas, where normality has been forever shattered. An attack the likes of which the world has never seen before has turned the Cold War on its head as the new factor in the silent conflict threatens the balance. The world already teetering on the brink of war, the United States and those that lead it now have to balance a new threat, fantastical in origin, alongside the many others that come with the turbulent era of the 1960s. Eras collide. Values clash. The nature of war remains unchanged.
