《The End (LitRPG)》Prologue
Advertisement
19 Years Ago
Thousands of years ago I gained godhood. My home planet was overrun by other creatures. These creatures to us their planets were all destroyed by... something. We never figured out what it was, but we did find out that all of the creatures that came to our planet weren't friendly. They were actually its spawn. About 95% of the other races that came to my planet were its children. The other 5% were quickly killed off by them.
There were almost 200 billion of them and less than 50 billion of us. Although we were more sophisticated, they just overwhelmed us. In the span of fewer than 6 months, they killed off 26 billion. 26 billion lives lost to those monsters. On the opposite side, we had killed approximately 48 billion. Which is a lot, but there were just too many of them. So we had our best scientist make a machine. The machine changed life energy into an energy we could use. We named it magic.
The only downside to this is that the machine could only take the life force from us humans. So the machine wasn't used all that often. After another month they released a disease on us. This disease affected all of us. Well everybody but me. I still have no idea why I wasn't affected. The disease was 100% fatal. So the elders decided to transfer everybody's life energy to me.
This was quite painful. Getting 24 billion lives put inside you is a feeling I can't even begin to explain. The procedure takes hours or in this case, days to complete. I passed out almost instantly. When I woke up, my entire race was gone. This is when I obtained my godhood. It still wasn't enough power to destroy them, sure I killed them by the millions, but after about 275 million I had used up 56% of my power, and it turns out that it doesn't recharge fast. So I decided to use up the rest of my power to go to a far away planet.

I used a very high-level teleportation spell on myself. I ended up on a red, barren planet millions of lightyears away. This, of course, would later be known as Mars. I quickly cast a breathing bubble spell on myself so I could breathe. The solar system I landed in wasn't even supposed to be there. On every intergalactic map I'd ever seen, this area was supposed to be starless. I was going to make my own star system here.
The closest planet to the one I landed on was a bright blue one, it was quite a bit smaller than my homeworld, probably less than 10% of the size. It looked like it had water on it to me, so I did a small range teleportation to it. I was pleasantly surprised to see that there wasn't just water, it also had plant and animal life.
At that time, you, my children were only simple primates. You barely used tools. I took a liking to these primates and gave them low-level sapience. After thousands and thousands of years, you started to lose most of your hair. You also started forming a sort of written language. You also started calling yourselves human, even though we look nothing alike. I don't know exactly why, but it was probably because of my magic that gave you sapience. Thousands of years after that we are now in the age of technology. This technology is crude, well, crude by my standards, but it has advanced society tremendously, but I can feel them. They are getting closer. By my estimates, they will be here in 19 years.
I had to do something. So I altered the genetic makeup of all unborn children. I made a spell that can transfer magic, sort of like the machine that gave me my godhood. I then gave all the unborn children what you all call superpowers. These superpowers are going to help you defeat my enemy. I am sorry for forcing this on you, even though you won't ever hear this. This is just my confession. My confession that I brought this upon you. I am really sorry. Even though there are only 7 billion of you, maybe because a good portion of you are enhanced you will be able to defeat them.

Hopefully, what I use the rest of my power on will help the rest of you. I am going to make this world into something most of you know. I am going to make it into an RPG-like world. Even though people born before now won't be given superpowers, they will be able to enhance themselves still. I am also going to sacrifice 99.99% of myself to make it where they can only get in, in small droves. Even though the "small droves" will probably be by the million.
I'm fading in and out of consciousness, I guess That's what happens when you use up all but .01% of your power. I guess I need to tell them something.
HEAR ME MORTALS. I AM YOUR GOD. MY REAL NAME ISN'T IMPORTANT, BUT YOU MAY CALL ME JAY. HEED MY WARNING! THE APOCALYPSE IS COMING! FRET NOT FOR I WILL GIVE YOU THE CHANCE TO SURVIVE IT! ANY CHILDREN BORN AFTER THIS MESSAGE WILL HAVE A VERY HIGH CHANCE TO BE BORN WITH SUPERPOWERS. IN 19 YEARS IT WILL START. DO NOT DESPAIR THE WORLD WILL CHANGE INTO AN RPG-LIKE WORLD WHICH MEANS ALL OF YOU ALIVE TO HERE THIS NOW, WILL HAVE A CHANCE TO ENHANCE YOURSELF.
Survive my children. Please. Survive.

Blackened Blood[Progression Fantasy]
Broken and lost by the dredges of this world a boy awakens once again into life's game within hallowed black halls, his first taste of new life cold and hunger along with the echoing drip of temptation. Deep sickness festering within in him. Given a second chance by either coincidence or something more sinister, follow the story of he who bleeds black. Betrayal, greed and blood littered in droves across this hellbound path. ********** 2000+ words daily for now, will reduce to thrice a week after the writathon. If it wasn't clear, this is a vampire story taking place in a high fantasy environment. Although while its main character is a vampire and that is one main focus of the story it will also lend itself to the magic side of this world as well. Basically, if you're interested in vampires or magic heavy stories, this will have something for you... probably. The synopsis is kinda vague but If you give it a shot, I think you'll like it. Also, feel free to drop any sort of constructive criticism since this is one of my first experiences writing in first person.Forgot to add that the story will be a little less action-orientated until around chapter 20+ when... well... read and see :) Any chapters with the * next to them have been edited or tweaked. I'll remove it once all of them are.

Neophyte
Blurb:Layla lives in a multi-planar universe where gods and superhuman immortals roam. Immortality is possible but only to those with money, power, and connections. Layla isn't worried about that, though. She's just trying to pay the rent. Robinhood style, of course. Atom is the self-proclaimed Mantle of Procrastination and good times. He Ascended from Earth a thousand years ago. A millennial NEET shut-in at heart, he enjoys video games and holo tube while spending time with his female companion, who does all his deific duties for him. Join the crazy adventures of a lazy God and his unwilling follower's rise to power. The first few Arc's of the story is an Academy arc. I think you will know if you like the story by chapter 6 as the first chapter may be confusing (or sucks, idk I like it so whatever)._________ The story is a slow burn. If you are expecting quick progression, I suggest looking at some of the other great stories on RR. I personally enjoy and Patreon several, but that's not what I'm writing. That might hurt my chances of trending anytime soon (or ever lol), but that is fine with me. I'm sure some of you will appreciate the story as much as I do in writing it. FAQ: The story has elements of xianxia and wuxia along with some GameLit (at some point). The story takes place in an age where tech has advanced to a complete integration with magic. Imagine everything running on mana or qi instead of electricity, and you will get the idea. There will be crafting but not until later in the story. It's actually a core plot elemenet for Layla. I'm writing this story for my own enjoyment and as a way of relieving stress in my life. I'm not a pro author or a naturally gifted wordsmith. I don't have beta readers and every chapter posted is a first draft. I'm still learning and will strive to improve as I continue the story. If you don't speak up I can't work on improving as an author. I welcome any criticism and encouragement that would help me become a better writer. I can't believe you read this far down! ;) Enjoy the story. --Cover Credit-- Cover art (emblem) by: Oxana Che Cover Design by: Miblart
