Doom Card: There Is No Real You
Who would you be if you didn’t have to meet the expectations of society? Who is the real you, under all the personas you have adopted to fit in? The different people you are to different groups?
Well, it’s nobody. There’s nobody under those personas. It’s masks all the way down. Without your real and imaginary connections to other people, you’re just a meat machine that eats, poops, and tries to bump it’s genitals on things.
A personality is just a set of strategies to deal with other people. If you want to change who you are, you must change who you interact with, or how you treat them. Simple.
But who do you want to change into? Have you ever changed before? Maybe moved to a new school and got a fresh start with completely different people. Who did you try to be to them? Probably somebody cool. How long did that last? I’m guessing not long. Didn’t last long when I tried it.
The next time you start over, try being a friendly doofus. A dude who doesn't try to hide his mistakes, and is mostly nice to people. It’s an easy persona to pull off, and people will like you. What more do you want?

A Broken World [Dropped Pending Rewrite]
This work has been dropped- because I am rewriting it. Look forward to the new and improved "A Broken World," now available HERE on Royal Road! Three thousand years ago, Demonic creatures invaded the world. Though their power seemed irresitable, a band of heroes managed to steal the knowledge of summoning rituals and worlds from them and created, "The Millenial Summoning." A powerful magic that would bring forth a being from another world with the power to change the world forever. The first being summoned became known as "The Speaker," and he brought the power of the Gods with him. Teaching prayers and invocations that blessed humanities legions and began to push back the demons, founding of the "The Church of the Spoken Word" rose to power and a stalemate was reached. Two thousand years ago, that stalemate was broken by the second casting of "The Millenial Summoning," and the arrival of "The First Sorceress," who taught humanity the basics of magic and enchanting. With the power of the Sorceress, the mages, and the priests the tide turned and the Demonic hordes began to be shoved back, signaling hopes of a golden age for mankind. One thousand years ago, the hopes of final victory and a new dawn for mankind were dashed by traitors who slew the participants of the ritual and took their places, using the ritual to bring forth a godlike being from the demons home world, "The Demon King," for no human knew his name, erased millenia of growth reducing humanity to barely a fragment of its former glory. Now the ritual is being cast again, and a new being is being summoned... In our world, after nearly two decades of studious work, Luke Jaeger is making his dream come true. Working and going to school full time, sacrificing his health and social life in his youth, Lucas obtained Doctorates in genetics and virology, as well as associate degrees in business and accounting. The modern world is not easy, and despite it nearly driving him mad from stress, this was the bare minimum he needed to be approved for a business loan to start a company focusing on commercial genetic therapy. Despite the challange of getting his business running, Lucas feels that his work has finally paid off. Lucas's car never left the banks lot, nor was Lucas ever seen again in our world.

His classmates then helped him train during their stay at the castle. During an expedition to subjugate a monster, Kouta was killed… not. Instead, he was given a skill he never thought he would have. This is the adventure of a closet online gamer in another world.
