No it is not a sponsored chapter I was just so excited to see someone appreciated my work so much~ It was definitely a happy occasion for me~
Also I looked at the results for the bread (yes/no) and I've decided to be tone it down a bit.

So I ask you to remember that when you're reading~!

Until Next Time Ciao Cubs~
“Urgh… I feel like the days I’m not actually playing the game are harder than when I am…”
Landon complained to himself as his rubbed his tired and sore body. After training with Sarah, and basically being used as a punching bag he was able to relieve a lot of stress from all the fatigue he accumulated in-game. However it seemed like a new source of pain arose and that was his body.
Thankfully after eating he’ll be able to dive into the game and no longer be able to feel his pain with his real body. The senses from real didn’t carry over from the real world to the game world. However there still was emergency measures in place, as if the diver came under a certain amount of pressure or illness they would be immediately ejected from the game and the internet connection with the game would immediately call 911. It was after all a brand new unit that had been tested many times over however, things happen both in the real world and in the game world. Thus certain measures had to be taken in order to protect paying customer’s lives. Of course by doing this Phoenix Enterprises would be able to possibly claim that their device saved lives thus selling even more copies.

Landon sat down and like a broken recorded repeated the same line he always does when he enters!
“Start!”
---------------------
“Hydra?”
A voice called out to Hydra. Hydra shook his body as he realized he was laying down of a cold damp surface. A voice called out to him and before he was even able to react to the sudden spawn of his body, a person ran over to him.
That person was Cline. It wasn’t the first time Cline had, seen Hydra pop out of thin air so he wasn’t too surprised and only called out to him lightly.
“Yeah I’m fine. Did anything happen while I was gone?”
“Besides all the convicts getting the crapped beat out of them for causing a small riot after your performance? Nothing.”
“Oh so no biggie, alright then well it’s time to escape, and this time. I’m getting my revenge on that [Reaper Lich]!”
“Are you crazy? How do you plan on getting revenge on it?”
“Well I acquired a ton of gear from killing all those skeletons, and we have a lot of armless men ready to fight to the death.”
“True, the moment you bring up bread to them they will turn into fanatics. Seriously even I almost started to pray to the Bread God you follow after watching you.
“Hehehe! Well anyways let me check what I got first!”
Rusted Sheen Sword (Rare)Damage 35Durability 30/50A once rare and powerful sword, however due to the rotting death aura and not cleaning the sword, it has rusted to a point of no return. However although rusted, the sheen of the once powerful sword can be seen. This item can not be repaired and will turn into scrap metal after breaking.
Leve requirement: 38
Aegis Gauntlet (Unique)Defense 50Durability 80/100A rare and strange gauntlet made by a master craftsman named Urlic. Because it is made with superior craftsmanship it also has superior stats. The shield attached to this gauntlet will never break even when the durability drops to 0, it will only need to be repaired. This item is used as a replacement for a held shield however as the shield gauntlet is a lot smaller, the difficulty in using it also rises.
Level requirement: 45
“Huh!?”
Just as Hydra was about to get excited Cline rushed over and grabbed onto Hydra’s hand!
“That’s my [Shield Gauntlet]! You even brought back one of my items. I must thank you after all I would be useless in a fight without this!”
Hydra grumbled to himself. He was sad and mad, but he wasn’t greedy enough to steal things from others. Yes he did pick up the item from killing a monster himself, but Cline was a new friend he had just met and Cline clearly saw him take out the gauntlet, so it wasn't as if he could lie. Hydra wasn’t too good at lying so best to just give it up straight. With that Hydra continued to check the items.

Armed Shoulder Guard (Rare)Damage 10Defense 20Durability 40/50[tr]A shoulder guard that focuses on a balance of damage and defense. It can be used to charge enemies and if the force is great enough, the damage caused will greatly increase chance of stuns. The metal is made with above average craftsmanship and thus durability will fall at a lower rate than normal.
Level requirement: 50
“Nice!”
“Hydra! You found my [Armed Shoulder Guard]! You’re honestly such a good friend!”
“Wha?!”
Before Hydra had a chance to wake up from his stupor, Cline had already rushed back over and took the [Armed Shoulder Guard] from Hydra. Now Hydra was more sad than anything, he wasn’t sure about the next item so when Cline went back to his corner to let Hydra look at his items, he turned around so Cline couldn’t see what he took out. Luckily the next item was his for the taking!
Bent Shin guards (Common)Defense 7Durability 20/30Shin guards meant to protect the leggings of a martial artist. As the martial artist over used the guards they eventually became warped, although they can be repaired with the help of a craftsman.
“Yes!”
As Hydra called out in happiness he immediately equipped his new shin guards. He wasn’t sure what else he grabbed, thus he wasn’t about to check his overall stats at the moment. Continuing on Hydra pulled out a black leather armor. He wasn’t sure what it was but upon seeing it was immediately shocked after reading the stats!
Armor of the Shadowless Man (Unique)Defense 50Durability 60/75This leather armor has been made a long time ago by an elvish craftsman. The orders for the craftsman was to create an armor that would blend into the night. Although the armor is thin it is just as hard as steel and allows the user to move with the utmost comfort. This armor is part of a set and only when the set is completed will its true abilities shine.
Set: ⅓ Current set bonus (Ability [Shadow Walk]: Allows the user to form a thin layer of shadow to walk onto. However this ability can only be used if the owner is able to use Dark magic. Mana 100 mana for 10 feet)
Level requirement: 35
“Ohhhhhhhhhhh Yeah! I can even equip this right now!”
As HYdra equipped his new black leather armor he felt a surge of pride fill his body. It was the first good piece of equipment that gave him defensive stats. He now didn’t look like a huge bum in [Second Saga] after all Hydra was probably the only person who didn’t have full equipment at this late in the game. Although the reason was because Hydra was unwilling to spend and of his gold on buying equipment.
Finally, Hydra had one more singular item in his bag to check after all the rest were duplicates. AS he pulled it out he noticed how abnormally long it was even while being so thin. He then checked the stats on it and gasped.
Sting, Sword of Eternal Revenge (Unique)Damage 65Durability 68/70A beautiful long sword crafted with the utmost care, as even the smallest mistake could damage it. This crafting process itself took numerous hours to create, and the craftsman himself spent his entire life creating this one masterpiece. Although the sword was made by an average craftsman, every bit of soul was put forth into this sword allowing it to be birthed as mighty weapon. This sword was given it’s name due to it’s thin and long appearance resembling a wasp stinger. If one provoked a wasp, the only result was to be stung in revenge!
Level Requirement: 53
“OH! My beautiful Sting! I can’t believe I was so lucky to have found you!”
This time Hydra didn’t even have the time to saw how amazed he was at the item and it was directly and even forcefully removed from his hands from Hydra. Although, now that Cline was fully equipped with his past gear, except his chest plate which was a normal knight’s armor to begin with, he did fit the name [One armed Demon Knight] as it looked incredibly intimidating with one side full of weapons and defense while the other was bare and non-existent.
Hydra nearly fell on his back in disappointment, after all it was truly incredible sword and would triple his damage output if he could use it. He wasn’t high enough level yet but it was doubtful whether his [Shadow Stealer] would be stronger by that point in time. However when he remembered his gains in this past conflict his frown turned into a smile as he stared at himself.
Now Hydra, gave off a dark heroic aura. The rest of the items weren’t entirely that good, as he mainly got [Steel Swords] that barely gave any good damage. They were the majority and he received 65 of them. The next most item was chest armor that the skeletons were wearing, and although they were once good, they were too rotted and damaged to be repaired to their original states. Finally he got a good amount of beginner pots, gold, ragged clothing, some skeleton bones, in which didn’t have much of a description other than that they were bones, and finally some zombies brains. However Hydra immediately dropped that into the crater below pretending he never picked it up to begin with.
Although Hydra was hoping to acquire some more gear from himself, he couldn’t complain as he already acquired most of the items he needed.
“Now let’s check my stats!”

The Fabled Islands
Somewhere out there, in the great expanse of space and time, exist the Fabled Islands. Nobody knows how or why they exist, but only that it is a strange and special place that operates under laws separate from the universe. The Fabled Islands are made up of vast floating continents. They vary in size, with some ranging from the surface area of a small planet, to a star. If you look at them from afar, you would find that they are placed in a line. Each island is separated by a vast amount of space, so there is only one way to travel from one island to the next; a gateway on the edge of the island. Each island is governed by strange rules. The only thing they share in common, is that the rules are governed by the System. The rules change vastly from one island to the next, so you must quickly adapt. Tristan was raised on the first island, Fertility Island, and has finally been allowed to become a Brave; a respected profession throughout the islands. Fertility Island is a peaceful island. There are hardly any monsters, the land is fertile, and the people kind. This is the complete opposite of what Tristan wants. Bring on the monsters! Bring on the magical items! I want adventure, loot, and to put my life on the line! Where are the dungeons, caverns, and mountains to be explored? Where is the mythical equipment to be found? The next island? Then the next island I will go! His adventure begins now.
8 135Memorybound
Two kingdoms and two women, inexorably linked through distant memory. One cannot remember who she was, and the other cannot see the truth of her present. One struggles to remember her history, while the other’s past trauma follows her everywhere she turns. Protecting their borders, and the heirs of the kingdom is the only thing that matters, but threats from outside and threats from within may soon crumble all that they have worked for. As the two do what they can to protect their kingdoms, it becomes increasingly clear that they are locked in the same struggle, two sides to the same coin, and coming together may be the only possible way to solve both of their problems.
8 120Path of the Golden Average
It's the beginning of a new school year, and Ethan Burkhardt has finally accomplished his greatest goal. Inrollment at an HCP (Hero Certification Progam) in Chicago, Illinois. Sizemore Tech might not have been his first choice, but they were the only ones willing to accept his application. Now, he just has to endure 4 years of brutal testing. The good news: He won't be alone. An entire class of strangers will be thrown together, young men and women all with the dream of becoming licensed Heros. They will be forced to either sink or swim (sometimes literally), but for most, their greatest challenge will be each other. The bad news: Someone is working behind the scenes, manipulating people and events towards some unknown goal. Are they on the side of the students? Or are they preparing to bring down the next generation of heroes before they can even graduate? A story based in the world of Drew Hayes "SuperPowereds" Series, this is my attempt at a fan-fiction that holds very close to the canonical worldbuilding already done. I hope you enjoy.

8 255The legend of the sun guild.
Durning the age of darkness it was said that four people of great power were born. The first man of great might. Who hunted the monster and saw them as know more than a means to an end. He fought to simply feed his hungry for blood and power. He challenged both the heavens and the darkest depths of hell. He made the world know meaning of the word fear. He was a strongest swordsman of the world. During his time their were few who could say otherwise and by his end their was know to be only one who claimed to be his better. There were none who love the sword like him. And there would be none who his blade would love like him. They said that number did not matter to him. That all who face him blade would die without exception. They is a legend of him bringing death to an empire so he could claim the life of widow of a soldier who died of his own blade in the face death so that the sword man would not now the satisfactory of taking his life. They called him the sword of death. The second was a man of great rage. An noble avenger to the weak and and terror to the strong. He was a berserker but unlike most who would attempt to control they rage he would reveal in the through of it controlling him. He would streak across the battlefield ripping both friend and foe apart alike and he would do so with nothing but his bare hand. They called him an immortal they said the more be bleed the more his power would grow. And they spoke of the power to he he could trade his blood for death. They said that no mortal weapon could kill him and that he would rise to fight no matter the injury. There was a legend of him ripping off his own head and using it to club his enemies to death. They called him the immortal wrath. The third was a woman of madness and magic. She was a hated witch. They say that her only objects was to spread misery and hate. It said she lead many a good man from the right path to one of great evil just to she if she was capable of such things. Her experiments left only detestation in their wake as she tainted the lands in some way worse than the worse then the void or darkness ever could. Her magic was a foul and dangerous thing that saw all her enemy become her enemy. That she enter the territory of both the formed of order and the gods of Chao us would not go. That she played with the energy of the void. Legend speaks of a place where she corrupted the very darkness that that claim both the land and the people. Some say light would flee from her presence in fear of the shadows fate for that was her name she was the fate weaver. The forth was a man. He was simply known as… the hero of the world. But this is not his story. No this is a story that speak of the other three The unrelenting swords man The undying wrath The unquantifiable desire But it mainly speaks of their second life. For the age of darkness has long since pases and the age of fire is coming to a close. But as the age dies a new one must be born. ( the idea is that this story will be told from the perspectives of the bad guys. Their motives ,objectives, rise to power, struggles and what they want to achieve. But yes they are the ‘bad guys’ of the story it’s also probably important to note that for the time being it’s going to be written on my phone then edit later when I have the time and feel like it but you should probably think of whats here as a draft until further notice. )
