《Aegis》Chapter 18: The Chapter That Doesn't Exist
Advertisement
A note from the author on an old error.
Whelp, ther's a bit of a snag here. See, when I was first creating and publishing Aegis some two-plus years ago, I made a mistake: I jumped ahead in my chapter numebring from 17 to 19. I didn't catch my mistake untill much later, chapter 94 to be exact, and by then it was far too late to correct it. As any of you who have submitted things to Reddit may know, you can't change the title of a post once it has been posted...
Yup. Seventy-five chapters and about three months later, I noticed that little goof and decided to press onwards without correcting it in order to preserve the records of the votes. When Redit changed its ToS and I pulled Aegis over into a Google Doc as an interim hosting solution, I kept the mistake; by then it had become one of the little dog-ears or inkblots on a well-loved manuscript.
And I'm doing the same thing here: leaving a note and laughing at a past mistake before moving onto the next actual chapter of the story. It's sceduled to go up on the hour, so go take a break and grab a drink of water or somthing. If It's already up and you're coming through binge-reading this, go and stretch anyways. There's a lot more where this came from.

8 234The True Endgame
What defines endgame content? Is it raiding epic dungeons to take down the strongest bosses there are, or is it facing off against other players to climb the ladder and become the top PvPer? Is endgame content gathering materials and crafting the strongest and most exotic equipment that there is, or is it all about playing the market and amassing more wealth than everybody else? Some people even argue that fashion and minigames are endgame content! Ryouta has already done all of that. Having spent most of his life playing MMO after MMO, he now finds himself wanting to live a virtual life that is far more relaxed and casual than what he is known for. To Ryouta, the true endgame is fishing. Cover illustrated by KoeHaru1!
8 250Saint's Supporter
Dumped into a world by myself, set up with a class that requires others to excel with just over a week to prepare for a fight with a literal god. This is just another betrayal to add to the list. I won't stop until I find the person who put me in this situation, along with my friend who I dragged into this mess. Transferring to another world and gaining special powers is a dream for some, but if they were dropped into my shoes... they'd probably give up. But I won't. This story has the following elements: Male MC Light RPG mechanics (no in-story stat tables) Non-standard class for the MC Moderate violence A mix of solo fights and group battles with a balance of tactics, skill and ability usage If you're looking for the below, you may be disappointed: Instantly overpowered MC (no prior skills in combat, every bit of growth is earned) Female MC (duh) Explicit sex (may be referenced, but no NSFW chapters) Health bars (damage taken and given reflects reality) Harem Gore and ultra-violence **This story is a First Draft, changes may take place during the process. Three chapters per week at minimum.** **So, this is set up as a GameLit transported to a new world story initially, but it focuses on how such a system would work in real life. There are levels, abilities and mana pools, but damage and health are realistic and combat is fast and frantic. I think that is an interesting mix. If you have any questions, just ask in the comments. I'm always happy to discuss anything in relation to the story.**
