"Well, that was informative," Cable mumbled. There was some inconsistency, but the Environment.dat sensors seemed to line up closely with a human's five senses. At least, there were correlations to sight, sound, smell, touch, and taste. No human he was aware of outside fantasy was able to see in the UV spectrum. Still, they were relatively similar, and easily within the capabilites of the human race to develop machines for.
"Let's try upgrading Optics to include EMSpectrum.cam, then see what we can see."

Warning: High level Anomaly found in proximity to dungeon core! (3 meters below)
Recommend: Cautious Investigation
A light show of brilliant colours lit up the space Cable and Nova shared inside their dark little world. It wouldn't be accurate to say any colours humans are familiar with to describe the spectacle, as they were outside the visible wavelengths of light. Still, they were perceived by Cable and Nova as colours, and lots of them too. Similar to how there are no words to describe things never conceived before, no words could properly describe the wonderful, marvellous sight they beheld together.

Bewildered, Nova gaped at all the triangular screens and their paneled views of the outside world. Her jaw fell, exposing her admiration of the true beauty around them. "Wow... so pretty!" was all she could say as she squealed in delight.
Cable, however, was more interested in the area on display 3 meters below their levitation place. A blurry, bright line ran through the middle of the point indicated by the system. A few other blurry bright lines showed up to the side and a bit of movement caught his eyes - the lines were vibrating, similar to a plucked guitar string.
"Nova, I think I found why we're floating," Cable quietly observed. "See those blurry lines that are brighter than the rest? I think they're high voltage power lines. See how they're vibrating? That's power, if ever I saw a vibrating magnetic field."
"Okay, so there are power lines below us. How do we get them to be our power source, and why does that mean we float?" Nova queried. "Wait wait wait, you're not going to tap into them directly are you? That would be suicide! We may have a heavy power supply, but it's not meant to handle thousands of Volts and Amps!"
"No, I was going for a much milder solution, we're going to tap into them remotely. We build a core-mounted transformer, and that should be enough as long as we don't move too far away from the source. As for why we float, I think that's because we're made from a diamagnetic material - that is, we're repulsed by magnetic fields, no matter their polarity. With your permission?"
"Are you sure it's safe? We're not going to blow up?"
"Absolutely. We're 3 meters away from the lines, there's bound to be heavy insulation around them along with a fair amount of shielding, and there will be absolutely no physical contact. All we need is a few coils of wire to pick up the free power."

"Then, be careful... we're in this together."
"Absolutely. Upgrade.evo options."

Reincarnation (Reverend Insanity Fan-Fic)
MC who has read RI completely using translated and MTL chapters, and continuously reads RI for about a 100th time suddenly reincarnates into the world of RI in the character of Mo Bei. He tries to figure out the path to survival using his profound understanding of the world of RI. He is a truly hardcore fan of RI and hence remembers even the minute details in each of the 6 books.

Follow Mo Bei in his journey to figure out the truths behind the Transmigration of Otherworldly Demons, and his eventual(?) return back to Earth. ✵ It is not recommended for those who haven't read upto translated chapters of RI. For MTL spoilers I would mention them with ### (3 hash) whenever they appear. You can chose to skip reading it. I will try to keep those spoilers at a minimum and mostly use info only upto the Fate war arc which is covered under translated chapters. ✵ I also publish on Webnovel.

Judas Valiant: Chorus of the Machine Giants
The world of Judas Valiant is bustling with Fantasy and a touch of Steampunk. This is an original tale made as an homage to the famed Studio Ghibli and Guillermo Del Toro, all-the-while taking inspirations from numerous animes and fantasies alike (Too many to love! Too many to name!). When a bloody catastrophe strikes a young boy's home, desperation brings about an unknown visitor. Plagued with gut-wrenching fear and an oncoming spiral into madness comes the boy's only hope of survival. Ripe with desperate opportunity, arrives the many-faced creature rushing to make a deal worth several lifetimes. "To find your way into your parent's arms again, you'll need to become a Valiant." He explained. "A Valiant?" I responded suspiciously. "...One must perform a 3-part task in which you must demonstrate the essence of a Mother, the essence of a Father, and earn the essence of a Gaurdian." He explained with haste. Innocently playing into the unknown visitor's tempting hand, the boy agrees to a deal hopelessly intertwined with a journey like no other and is sent to the mysterious and massive city of New Dwarden. Faced with outrageously colorful characters, towering and seemingly alien animal life, and even talking frogs-lemur's, the boy must adapt to grand adventure to complete his impossible task. This a steampunk story about a second chance at life, one that grows beyond life and death. Join me Frankie, as I guide you through the original tale of Judas Valiant: Chorus Of The Machine Giants Primarily Inspired by: Hayao Miyazaki (Studio Ghibli) Dedicated To: D-Ward Special Thanks: Erick M.
