020. Discovered Again
"Sigh, why is everyone around me so incompetent? Yes, I may be perfect my self with no flaws, an existence that no one can compare to. Yet does that mean I have to lower the standards for those around me?" As he was speaking the mystery man looked down and sighed before kicking the severed head on the ground. Several beings of varying sizes and shapes saw this almost casual action and shuddered while thinking how glad that they were that they were not the ones that had messed up this time.
"It took her a full month to bring this to my attention, and yet the guild master in the area was informed of it within mear moments. How dare she claim to be my closest confidant and best spymaster. she was only number 17 at best. I don't even know why I ever bothered to spend any points on her. Oh well no point in crying over spilt various fluids, I might as well send my own "delegation" over to the new neighbour."
Kick, and a severed arm went flying.
"Yes, my Master, who do you want us to send? Only you in your all-knowing brilliance and handsome-ness have the wisdom and foresight to know whom should be sent." came a reply from a small being from the crowd, it was only 91cm tall, anorexically skinny with all its bones and veins showing with blue skin and red patches here and their, 5 horns of varying colours on its head, and a long spindly tail that ended in 5 spikes of the same colours.
After hearing the question the man glared at the creature for a moment causing it to squirm in fear, then answered "Hmm, the guild has a month head start, and they are a fair bit closer this time around, so I think we should send someone with a agl or spd build... Ah, how about Grockson?"

"F..f..f.. forgive me master, but you sent him to test the new traps last week..."
"Yes, that's right, how did he fair?"
"About 5% in before he was half frozen to death... and half electrocuted to death... so half and half makes him fully dead..."
"5%? he must have levelled recently, I didn't expect him to get past 4%. Then I suppose Farlonie will do."
".... Sorry oh lustrous and shiny one, she was behind the behemoth yesterday when you forgot to take it out for a walk, and well..."
"Oh, I hit darling little Snooky on the nose with some paper for that. I felt so bad that I forgot to take her out for walkies, but doing that on the carpet is a no-no. Oh well then whatever, just go to the barracks and pick out someone that has a spd or agl build, I don't really care who anymore."
Hearing this the small creature got down on its knees and bowed down, then while still on its knees crawled backwards out of the room.
~~~
"Damn bastard, If we weren't his creatures he would have been cracked centuries ago, either by his enemies or us. Whatever, I will just go get some random kid from the breeding chambers, give them the standard "invitation" package for a idiot newborn Dungeon, and send them on their way. If they faile so what, its there heads not mine."
~~~
"Wake up you buckets of swamp rat vomit, I said WAKE UP!"
Bang, thud, slash, BOOM, splash.
"Fine, just put away the pointy and sharp things, we're up, we're up. What's with all the excitement?"
"The Lords sent us a quest! Us, a quest! I can't believe they sent us a quest! We are still only rank 5, complete newbs. They must think we are the best newbs at the moment. And it's not just any old gathering or killing quest, it's an "invitation" to a newly exposed Dungeon!"

"What, don't joke with us Greta, they couldn't have given us such an important quest. It should have been given to someone like Grockson or Farlonie."
"Shut up Liff. I'm not kidding. They really gave the quest to us. Open your [Party] window and check the quest section."
Party Quests
Dungeon "Invitation"
A newly discovered Dungeon has appeared. No information is known about it other than the location and that it is a newborn. Go and give the "Invitation" package to it.
Report to the local contact after the mission has been compleated.
100% completion reward: 65 Large Silver coins and 1,000 party EXP.
"Damn it's really there. I don't know why they would give this quest to us but hot damn am I glad they did, look at those rewards."
"I know right, it's so awesome even the EXP isn't bad, we will be able to live like tier 1 Upper Fodder for a year if we finish with 100% completion."
"Alright, let's do this. We need to get our supplies ready. The Dungeon is not really that close to us, we are almost 20 thousand kilometres or so from it."
"Right, that's just like next door... if we lived in the countryside."

Trickster's Tale
Be careful when demanding reparations from gods. They rarely own up to their mistakes. Due to a goddess's shortsighted error, Perry finds himself transported to a distant Universe with new proportions and a different identity. Instead of cowering before the deity, he demands she opens a portal home or provides reparations for him and his bereaved family. Unfortunately, standing up for himself doesn't earn Perry respect. Instead, she curses him with cowardice, limiting his combat and magical potential. Little does the goddess know that nothing can stand in the way of Perry's sheer will. If brute strength and arcane might won't get him the justice he desires, wit and creativity will. Perry's first target? A goblin shaman. Then, the world. And so begins, the bard's ballad. Trickster's Tale (Book 1): Is That A Lute In Your Pocket will release on Kindle Unlimited on the 10th of May.Due to KU's exclusivity rules, I've had to take most of book 1 down.Book 1 Bard's Ballad takes place in the same extended Universe as my other story, The Houndsman. It's set on a distant 'disk', though. As a result, the magic system is unique in comparison and has a harder LitRPG system. While the story utilises stats, it doesn't take them seriously and occasionally makes fun of regular LitRPG mechanics.

Soul Power 9999
I... don't remember how I died. Or anything else, really. I don't know who... what I am, what this dark space I am in is, or why the souls all around me are looking at me. But I do know that if the world starts falling apart, escaping comes first, even before listening to the messages that keep ringing inside my head. I only really remember the first one: [The [Simplification Process] has begun.] And so, while the world was doing a 180, I was stuck deep underground as an incorporeal soul, absorbing the essences of thousands others like me who had been torn to shreds just to prevent myself from dissipating, and trying desperately to go up while recovering jumbled up memories from my past. I did try to posses monsters to gain a physical body, but... It seems my soul got too powerful to be shackled down by a vessel. Releases every two days at 12:00 on Central Europe (GMT+1)
