My Space-Time System Chapter 119

They had two things on top of their lists; first, registering Castiel and Brian with the adventurer's association, which was pretty easy, and the last but not the least, finding where they would stay.
Although the school was still open to students like Blake who had no family and nowhere to go, the current atmosphere of the school was depressing, and staying there wasn't giving them the feeling of being on a 3 weeks break. So, they decided to rent living quarters for the period.
"I don't know many people or any place in this city. So for starters, I would say we should meet Susan at the adventurer's association and she might help us." After explaining the plan to them, they boarded a carriage that took them there.
Once they entered the 5 story building and Susan set her eyes on Blake, she became overly excited.
"Good day adventurer Zero, it's been a while..." Susan said with flushed cheeks.
"I've been quite busy lately, how are you doing?" Blake said with a smile on his face.
"I am good as always..." Susan said with a smile as she flaunted her smooth blonde hair. "How may I help you?" Susan asked.
"I will like to get them registered." Blake pointed at Castiel and Brian. "Also we would like to form a party."
When it comes to commissions, 20% of them were solo missions which are mostly based on requesting for magical materials, but the remaining 80% were party missions.
Missions that require protecting or delivering a package, raiding a dungeon, protecting a researcher who was on a dangerous expedition, and so on, were always commissioned to adventurer parties for more security because in this world numbers truly mattered.
"Okay let's get them registered first..." Susan said with a warm smile as she brought out 2 forms and handed one each to Brian and Castiel.

When both of them had taken a seat to fill the forms, Blake chatted with Susan for some time before telling her about their accommodation problem.
"You don't have to look so far for accommodation. The adventurer association building has a lot of rooms rented out to adventurers or did you think they made use of every single room of such a humongous building?" Susan asked with a raised brow.
'The adventurer's association is practically into every business on this planet. I wonder who is the person in charge of all of this?' Blake was stunned by the revelation, from the percentage they took from appraisals and commissions, they were making a lot of gold coins.
"That will be one gold coin each." After collecting the 2 gold coins and making sure everything was in other, Susan handed them the adventurer's manual and their adventurer's badges.
"Welcome to the adventurer's association adventurer Hades." Susan congratulated Castiel.
"Welcome to the adventurer's association adventurer Grock." Susan congratulated Brian.
"As for registering adventurer party, all you have to do is fill this form and pay a registration fee of 100 gold coins." She said to the group.
"100?!" Brian asked the question that was on Blake's mind.
"My registration is a gold coin so how did it move up to 100 coins?" Brian read Blake's mind once again.
"Adventurer Grock please don't misunderstand, the association isn't trying to cheat you.
Apart from registering your party with the local authorities to enable you to carry out your commissions easily with the city and so many other processes that will still be handled, the association will be held responsible for some of your actions and the price tag is to prevent just anyone from registering a party." Susan explained calming them down.

'Seems I have no other choice.' Blake sighed helplessly as he forked out 100 gold coins from his dimensional space.
[Hmph.] The system couldn't feel more ashamed of having such a host.
Soon, another form was given to them to fill. While answering the questions they decided who the party leader was, which was undoubtedly Blake with Castiel as the 2nd in command followed by Brian.
The filling went on smoothly until they reached the question requesting for the party's name.
"Gods of Olympus. You as Zeus, Castiel as Hades."
"Nope." Brian's suggestion was immediately thrown out the window.
"Unyielding might?"
"Too goody."
"I would have said Akatsuki, but not only will people of this world find it very difficult to pronounce, but it lacks originality on our part." Blake's words received a lot of nods.
"How about Order of chaos?" Castiel suggested.
"Hmmm. I like that." Blake was nodding to the idea.
"Not only is it catchy, but it has multiple hidden meanings." Brian gave Castiel a thumbs up.
"It's decided then..." Blake said as he filled in the blank space before submitting the filled form to Susan.
"Congratulations on forming the order of chaos!" Susan congratulated the trio.
'Thank the heavens that picking parties uniform and crest which would surely cost a lot was optional.' Blake let out a sigh of relief.
"Good day Miss Susan. Has the package arrived?" A stoic voice with a hint of pride drew everyone's attention.
"Good day Mister Taliesin. Yes, your package just checked in this morning." Knowing who she was dealing with, Susan went straight to the point.
"That is great news. I would like to hire an adventurer party to help me transport the package, but they should be mid to low-rank party and the commission will be set for tomorrow." The man said ignoring the trio, but they were in no way offended
The man was in his early 70's with well permed gray hair and a well-shaven mustache. Wrinkles were already forming on his face and skin, but every move he made was full of vigor.
"Most of the mid-rank parties are busy with other commissions, while the rest won't be free by the given time. As for the low-rank parties, almost all of them are too weak for an excursion commission, leaving us with 2 eligible parties, but one of them is already working on a commission." Susan said while checking the details on the crystal orb beside her.

Entangled Fates Book 1 - Quantum Beginnings
“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.” —Eliezer Yudkowsky Hey all, we're moving over to book 2. This content is in a state of transition. The book is now availble on Amazon (includes extra chapters): https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07W1534R8 Artificial intelligence was nearly mankind’s last invention. AI took off like a rocket, then when it racked up an impressive death toll, it crashed before it could blossom and took most high-tech industries with it. Resistance and fears became deep-set. Two decades after the infamous Rev. 4.6 incidents, humanity hasn’t quit dreaming of the wealth and power that could be at their fingertips. A new generation of mega-corporations rose from the ashes. When one melds a quantum computer to a barely functional mental patient as a PR move, there are those who seek to profit, those who want to destroy it, and Alex. Alex Sage is a typical college student trying to keep up his grades and maybe find a meaningful connection with the fairer sex. Then, an automated semi crashes into his home, killing his family and turning his head into a pin cushion in the process. Alex awakens to find most of his memories gone and an illegal AI hidden in his brain implant. Now the pet project of a tech billionaire and heavily in debt, Alex struggles to stay valuable enough to be kept online. Still grappling with the repercussions of his injuries, and threats from a dangerous anti-augmentation political movement, there are no easy answers and threats loom around every corner. Alex must use whatever resources he can to escape from under the thumb of a ruthless corporation, while keeping those he comes to love safe. Chapters will stay up on RRL until Aug 10. It'll go up on Kindle Unlimited after that. How do you get those extra chapters I didn't have planned for RR? If you want them, they'll be in the published book. Book 2 will still make sense without them - I made sure of that. But... isn't $3 a lot for extra chapters? Think of it as tipping me for a good job and you'd also be getting my eternal thanks. If you enjoyed it so much that the idea of missing out a few chapters haunts you, I did my job as an author and made an engaging story. What's in those extra chapters? Resolving a few issues, set up for the cybernetic revolution, a rather intense sex scene with a new partner, revelations of who's really pulling strings, and a bit of set up for book 2. Complaints that people missed out on it when it was published here won't help (sorry!). I posted this for the folks who helped me shape the book, which is you all! (Again, yay!) But... Why! Why not keep it all on RR forever? My editor likes being paid for one. For two, I'd like the ability to get broader readership. If I break even on editor costs, I'll be incredibly happy. What about book 2? Drafts for Book 2 will go up around Sept 10. My draft of Book 2 is done, and it will be handed to the editor once Book 1 is published. Feedback has been even more positive. Beta readers devoured it and wanted more. I'll add a link to Book 2 once it's up on RR. I'm more or less, using you all for Beta Readers, so you get it before it's "canon" and edited. I invite active and meaningful feedback during this process. In return, you get early access to chapters. That does mean that the book content or plot might be adjusted before it gets published as I refine it. Sex Y/N? Yes. I heard the feedback, 90% wanted it explicit. You all will get the "full" experience. Will I dump all of book 2 here? Honestly, I'm not sure yet. At a minimum, it'll be up to the 75% mark as we collect feedback, much like what I did with book 1. It really depends on how good the feedback is and how nice people are. Lots of support + meaningful feedback to make it better = higher likelihood you get all the book. Will be it up here indefinitely? No, it'll probably go up on KU at some point, but I'll make sure there's enough time for a large readership to grab it here. Then we move to book 3 which already is around 60K words already. What about other adventures in the same universe/characters? Yep. Absolutely. Nothing ready to share yet though. I plan to keep those side chapters and more slice of life stories as RR exclusive. Since I'm carving this off in book-sized segments, I'll have to figure out where those disconnected story arcs belong. I'm open to suggestions.

The White Room
A group of gamers are hired as guinea pigs to test a new VR system. None of them know what exactly to expect. Is the new system bing tested, or is it them? Are they just there for games, or is there a greater game being played? My first attempt at writing LitRPG. I I'm learning as I go and therefore will probably stumble over numerous cliches of the genre and writing in general. Definitely a work in progress.
