"Lina, have I lost weight?"
[User Dale has lost half a kilogram of body weight during the last five days]
"Looks like my workout is paying off! At this rate, I should lose at least three Kg by the end of the month, right?"
[Unfortunately, taking a day off and eating junk food on the fourth day might have negated the gains made]
"Cut me some slack, Lina! It's called a cheat day!"
[Will User Dale be resuming the workout today?]
"I am all good now, so ya I will. Which one of the tasks should I start off with today?"
[User Dale has not made much of any progress in Push-ups, Leg-lifts, Squats, and Surya Namaskars]
"You make it sound like I did not even try to complete them. On the contrary, I achieved over twenty sets in all those tasks before collapsing. Which should be praised and not scorned."
Dale unrolled a yoga mat and began the ritual of greeting the sun fifty times on it.
[It is admirable that User Dale has a positive outlook on failure]
"Failure is the best teacher, ya know?" Dale replied as he moved with his eyes closed.
[Is that why User Dale failed the driver's test three times?]

"Who drives these days when your Butler can do it? In fact, if it wasn't for my dad's brand new hovercar, I would not have attempted those tests."
[Reminder: Ownership of the Hover Car will only be transferred to User Dale upon obtaining a driver's license]
"It's so nice that my dad's Butler was transferred to me without any obstacle. If only he did that with everything else."
[Does User Dale plan to sell the vehicle?]
"Well, part of me wants to keep the hovercar as a keepsake. So I don't want to sell it. But, you see how complicated emotional attachments are to humans?"
[I understand the concept of keeping reminders of those who are deceased. But I fail to see the practicality of letting it gather dust when User Dale is struggling to keep the house]
"Well, that is the price you pay for having a deep bond with someone. It's difficult to let go. Now, will you let me exercise in peace or not?"
[Is this Monster App more important than finding a stable source of income or acquiring funds?]
"But what if it's not a game?"
[I do not understand]
"Don't you find it odd that a hacker capable of installing an undeletable App on every phone in the world with Artificial Intelligence just ignore the older phones? Granted, seventy percent of the world population is at least seven billion. Installing the Monster app on all of them is no cakewalk either, but I decided to go on Reddit to find out if anyone had a theory as to why Fluffals ignored the older phones."
[Did User Dale find any helpful information?]
"I found a community called the 'Fluffals is not a troll!' which consists of hundreds of thousands of people who all want to hatch the egg and see what's inside as soon as possible. The community discussions focus on why Fluffals needs DNA codes. If you think about it carefully, there isn't any tech on Earth that requires them other than medical institutions to identify blood samples or forensic departments to match DNA at crime scenes.

Passwords, Fingerprints, retina scans, voice patterns, and facial structure matter when unlocking or robbing high-security sites or physical and digital safes. How does it benefit a hacker to have a library of DNA codes that one can easily extract by collecting hair, saliva, or blood? It is easy to get those codes through other channels.
A Reddit user asked his Butler to activate the app without him being present in the room and discovered it was not possible without him holding the phone.
Other users tried exchanging DNA codes to see if they could access the Monster App using another ultra smartphone, but they failed to launch the app. For some reason, the Monster app will only launch if the DNA code registered matches the DNA of the person holding the phone. This shows that the app is synced with the person having the right phone and not the code alone. If anything happens to that phone, then the person loses all access to the Monster app, is what I learned so far."
[Why go through all that security on an app meant for trolling?]
"Exactly! Unless Fluffals is serious about saving the people who will heed his warning and complete his tasks. Most of the world ignores his message or is unaware of his message entirely due to government warnings. Those who fail to get the app and an egg of their own will want to steal it if the apocalypse happens. This way, the app won't work for them even if they get their hands on the DNA code. It is quite a piece of advanced technology for a prank."
[The egg is still a digital program that is no more than binary code with an image]
"No one has managed to hatch an egg so far, yet you are confident what will come from it. Don't you think there is a possibility that we are dealing with tech that is beyond human understanding?"
[User Dale suggests that 'The Majestic Pink Fluffals the Third' is a technologically advanced Alien?]
"I don't really care what Fluffals is, but I care about him being right. So there is no harm in completing his tasks and finding out. If it is all a joke, I would have wasted a month which I could have used to search for a job. But if it is true, I have taken the first step in surviving whatever apocalypse is coming. I doubt a steady-paying job will matter then. Either way, I have exercised my body for a month."

My class [Death Knight] is just barely legal...
Ever since meeting his uncle, Arthur has pushed himself daily to achieve an arbitrary goal. He trained like nobody else did, longer than anybody else could. He neglected his personal relationships to pursue something he didn't even understand, in hindsight. When the time came for his class awakening ritual, he was ready. He was ready to receive a powerful starting class and to break free from his boring lifestyle. Well, you know what they say, "Be careful what you wish for, lest your wish be granted." Arthur was assigned the death knight class, which is just barely, technically, maybe legal. With it, he learns about what drove him to such simple minded ambition in the first place: his affinity. Now, he's faced with a dilemma: will he embrace it, or reject it? 'My class [Death Knight] is just barely legal' is a laid back story with occasional tension, that describes Arthur, a young man, exploring the world, the system and his own mental health as he pursues his ambitions. This story is the first serious fiction I ever wrote, so while criticism is definitely welcomed, keep it polite. I'm going to rewrite the first few chapters at some point, since they're not as good as my later ones, but I'm focusing on my current chapters first. I don't have time to do both yet, since I'm also in the middle of my exams. What to expect from this story: -Litrpg elements -A chaotic good aligned protagonist (that starts off as a neutral good protagonist) -(Hopefully) interesting characters. What not to expect from this story: -Grimdark elements -Harem -An enslaved protagonist. (I mention this due to the background of the mc's class) Release schedule: 1 chapter every other day, 2pm European time (14:00) Join the discord here: https://discord.gg/YHZFB4HMHD

Kalar's Continent
Magic is a fickle thing, hard to grasp and even harder to truly master. Mana flows through everything in the world, every rock, plant, and human. They all breath, grow and influence their surroundings in their own right.Join Teo, a bright young boy with a gift for Arcane Magic, through his journey to tackle the Elements, master his Craft and climb to the very peak of magic itself.Who will he meet, friends or foes? Trusted companions or bitter rivals? Will he be able to find his answer and get to the real meaning of magic, all while wrestling with the complex laws of nature and his own unripe emotions?There is only one way to find out.The story will start with a few chapters of introductions in volume 1 to establish the characteristics and the nature of the world the characters live in. After that, it will probably become a lot more fast-paced and incorporate real story progression. My goal is to fuse the common magic advancement system in a weak-to-strong fashion, together with elements of naturalism, magic combat action and little bits and pieces of science, wherever necessary, to form a bright and interesting story about a boy chasing his dreams about magic.

Meaning: The End of the Starless Century
Magic was once a reality of everyday life, shaping the lives of the gifted and ungifted alike since the dawn of humanity. That all changed in the fires of World War I. Seeking to avoid catastrophe, humanity’s leaders enacted the Masquerade Order and segregated the magical community while also forming The Congregation to enforce the separation. As time passed, the awesome power of magic was forgotten by the world outside. This held true for a little over a century, but things begin to change when three individuals intersect in the peaceful town of Ithaca, New York. Noelle Sellers, a newly minted policewoman searching for her place in the world. Levi Wright, a mage living in Ithaca who is far more than he lets on. Lorelei Himmel, a juvenile witch in hiding out of fear of what people would do to her, and what she may do to them. As forces slithering in the darkness emerge from the murky depths of the world, the timeless battle for magic and for the future itself begins once again. Cover by Daisy Drew, @littledaisydrew on Instagram.

A Chimerical Hope
The dream we share is simple: no traitors, no masters, only bugs united. Lucidity is a dreamer's sacrifice to reality, and our sacrifice is the vesperbane. A vile transformation through bat blood and black nerve, the vespertine arts grant a mantis power and control beyond this world. Only vesperbanes can give our grand dreams breath — but all vesperbanes are shadowed by an incorrigible potential to instead become oppressors and defectors. Three nymphs will undergo this metamorphosis, yet each holds another dream in their hearts: a scholar who must learn the secrets of the mind to bring the dead back to life; a servant who must atone for lives taken and find a cause unquestionable; and a rebel who must kill an angel and avenge a destroyed home. In this world, the mightiest wield the power to crush cities or spawn monstrous armies — here, there's always someone above you, and it's a long, arduous climb higher. But true power is wielded by those with the cunning and the connections to direct the mighty. In every shadow a conspiracy dwells, and these nymphs already have killers hounding them, spiders weaving webs around them. Anyone can climb to the top, anyone can tangle in these conspiracies — but what would you sacrifice along the way?
