《Fly in Fantasy》Server Crash - (Not an) Interlude
Advertisement
All the data the system stored was handled inside a server. This server is located at the borders of the universe. A few attendants sent by the RNG goddess to each universe manages the server at all times. Since they were practically the RNG goddess' servants, they could work through a single week if needed.
The servant managing the fantasy world is called Rinatara Ruera, nicknamed "Rana". She usually dons a semi-transparent robe enough to reveal her body figure and wears glass high-heels, along with a brown necklace to compliment her hazel eyes. She, along with Anton, were responsible for the current server status.
Anton was a newly created servant, and Rana's apprentince. He'd have to learn the ways of servants first, before he could serve the RNG goddess.
Usually nothing serious happened to the server, but today was a different day. The server managed to overload his CPU by getting stuck in a loop.
This was a problem for Rana, because her only proven solution was...
"WORK ALREADY!"
To hit the server with a fist.
System unable to execute command
The system is unable to execute your command. Please stay patient for a moment while we fix internal issues.
Rana was beyond angry. Not only had she been stuck with this job for over 30 millenas, but the system managed to break itself for some reason. Her first instinct was to destroy the server with one of her high-heels (come on, they are good at breaking stuff) and ask for a new server. Maybe she would even get moved to a less boring job.
Yet she couldn't do that.
"Rinatama-sama, don't you think that we should launch the back-up?"
Rana glared at the embodiment of failure, her apprentince Anton. He wore a grey disheleved robe with green linings. The faint brown stains on it stank through the room. 'From his shit,' Rana thought. 'That, and twelve years living like a rat.'

"Impossible. The last back-up we did was from over a thousand years ago." Albeit embarassing, this was the truth. None of the two bothered to back the server up. Over the course of a thousand years, many animals would have died, and the backup definitely won't be up-to-date at all. It's like making a backup of medivial technology and loading it into the age of globalism.
Rana hit the server in frustration again.
Title gained You gained the title "System breaker"

"Oh, shut up, I'm not even in the world!"
Anton sneered. "Please stop hitting the server. We still can use the system, but not with a broken pile of metal."
Rana moved her face threatenly close to Anton. "Do you want to get beaten up as well?"
Anton showed a fake smile and said, "No, of course not. Please proceed further."
"What would you do then?" Rana snapped at Anton.
Anton knead his chin. "Perhaps... we should let the AI manage the server. It would be down for a year, but we'd never have to worry about it again."
Rana beamed. "This is no problem at all. I can just create a couple of alternate universes and freeze this one. The AI can run rampant there if it needs to. I'll delete them afterwards."
A sweat drop trickled down Anton's face. Internally he shrieked. 'Are universes supposed to be that expandable?'
He slowly inhaled and calmed down. "Okay," He said, "all I need to set is the AI's goal."
"Make that the usual." Rana shrugged, and went back to her seat, now that all problems were solved. 'Maybe Anton wasn't too bad.' She thought. 'Even if we'd mess up here, there are a lot of other universes to balance the souls out. I should recommend him to the goddess, maybe I get to move and he can fill my stead.' She didn't want to stay here for another 30 millenas.

Anton stared at her back. His breath grew ragged, and internally he formed a plan. He would make the Ai's goal to merely observe the animals on this world, and no longer limit them. This will lead to a huge power spike to all the souls in this dimension, fragmenting the power balance between the universes. And once he left this server, he could frame her and get fame, maybe even be promoted to the goddess' assistant.
A grin escaped his else so controlled face, and he immediately got to work.

The Shadows Become Her
A fantasy progression, a coming of age story, and a tale of revenge... Alvixia "Vix" Altorelli's idyllic childhood is disrupted in one tragic night when the duke's fanatics ransack the Altorelli home and imprison the rest of her family, selling them into slavery across the ocean. Vix soon finds herself fleeing for her life and her freedom, fleeing to the faraway city of Floria on an island ruled by the mysterious Nurass, Prince of Shadows. In Floria, Vix's sharp mind and talent for magic land her a spot at the Perdita Free Collegium, the world's greatest school for spies, saboteurs, swashbucklers, seductresses and, some claim, practitioners of dark magic... and that suits Vix just fine. If the Collegium wants to give Vix the tools she needs to save her family and get her revenge on Duke Orso, she'll take that deal any day of the week and twice on Saintsdays, even if that means making a deal with the Prince of Shadows himself. This is Vix's tale. Author's Note: Now that Writathon 2022 is over, updates will be on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays!

The Ruins of Magincia
They say all things end in time, but the exalted City of Magi would’ve begged to differ. Yet when an attempted coup goes wrong, the city finds itself brought to the very brink of destruction. In the wake of the calamity that left no survivors, the autonomous infrastructure still operating the ruined city seeks to restore what was lost. Luckily for it, the Mana-devoid Universe it awoke in holds an unexpected surprise: a planet full of sentient life forms. All capable—with a little help—to become the next generation of Magi. Back on Earth, Millie McArthur is a pregnant out-of-work mechanic struggling with the prospect of moving back in with her parents after leaving her unfaithful fiancé. That is until she finds herself just one of the hundreds that have been shanghaied by the callous artificial constructs still manning the ruins of Magincia. Now, she must struggle to learn magic, compete for resources, get good 'grades,' and fulfill the seemingly arbitrary requirements for her future job in this broken city. All while keeping herself, and her son, alive. Is the miracle of magic really enough to make up for all the pain? The Ruins of Magincia is a dark fantasy that's heavy on the drama (LitRPG aspects are very light). Chapter lengths can be anywhere from 7k-12k and there's no current release schedule as I'm focusing on wrapping up volume one.
