《Death... and me》Chapter 45: Destiny Points
Advertisement
Rean and Roan touched Sister Orb at the same time and sent Spiritual Energy inside. Immediately after, they selected the Reward List option.
[1- Light and Dark Elements Cultivation Techniques - Free]
[2- Ape Bones - 10 Destiny Points]
[3- Spiritual Energy Absorbtion Upgrade Level 1(Necessary to have Light and Dark Cultivation Techniques) - 100 Destiny Points]
[Further Rewards will be available once authority level increases.]
Rean and Roan couldn't help but ask.
"What are Destiny Points?"
[The presence of hosts in this world has changed the natural order of things. Every time the hosts create a great disturbance, they will be rewarded with Destiny Points. The hosts' final goal is to change the destiny of the two halves of the Universe, merging them together once more.]
Roan pondered a bit and made another question.
"What level of disturbance is necessary to generate Destiny Points?"
[It depends on the scale.]
"In that case, if we do something that changes the destiny of our Varen Tribe, would it be enough to get Destiny Points?"
[Yes, but this would be considered the smallest scale change, giving the lowest number of points.]
It was then that Rean thought about something else.
"Sister Orb, how many points do we have at the moment?"
[Zero]
Rean and Roan nodded at each other.
"Our presence in the Tribe has definitely changed its destiny to a certain extent, but not enough to get destiny points. We would need to make something more significant."
Suddenly, Rean's eyes shined as he looked at Roan.
"What about the ores? Because of our Ore Mine, our Tribe has a few blacksmiths, right?"
Roan nodded.
"It does, but what do you need them for?"
Rean laughed out loud and continued.
"Have you forgotten what my job was back on Earth? I was already a 31 years old grown man, after all. Not to mention that I had also finished college."

Roan pondered a bit and tried to remember the information about Rean's job before his death.
"Oh! If I'm not wrong, you were something called metallurgist. Looking at the name, it seems like it has something to do with metals, right?"
Rean nodded.
"Yes. Of course, back on Earth, I was nothing more than an average one, but in this world, you could say that I'm the greatest blacksmith ever! At first, I wasn't planning to show my skills before I got older. But considering that we need those Destiny Points, I guess it is worth a try."
Roan admitted that Rean was right. The Tribe doesn't even need to sell the equipment made by Rean, just by equipping themselves with it, the Tribe's overall strength would increase a lot. That should be enough to generate destiny energy.
"Well, I already taught you swordsmanship, and I will keep doing so in the future. So for now, I will leave this Destiny Points Generation up to you."
Rean nodded and didn't mind that answer. Knowing how to use a sword might make things even faster during this process of teaching the Tribe's Blacksmiths about Metallurgy's concepts.
Having that decided, they went to the next topic, the Cultivation Techniques!
Rean and Roan didn't waste anytime and immediately selected the first option. They had been going with nothing until now, and they could see the difference between themselves and the others who had it. It simply wasn't at the same level at all!
As soon as they selected it, a stream of information flowed into their minds. Both techniques were almost identical, with only the exception of the Element used for it. Also, there was a unique trait for the techniques. They allowed the cultivator to use the opposite Element to reach a balance, which greatly improved the cultivation speed.

Of course, for such thing to work, Rean and Roan would need to work together.
"Why does everything have to be together? Sister Orb, can't you give us some individuality?"
[The techniques were created using the hosts' compatibilities. This is the best result. It is still possible to cultivate without the help of the opposite Element, but the speed will drop several times. It might be even slower than the other elemental techniques you got before.]
Roan glanced at Rean and sighed.
"Forget it. It is for the sake of getting strong. Besides, we just need to send the other's Element through the Black and White Thread, it is not like we need to stay close to each other. So stop complaining and be happy that there is at least a cultivation technique for our elements."
Rean sulked a bit and decided to give up.
"Anyway, what are those Ape Bones? I don't think I heard anything about it in this world before."
[Ape Bones is the first level of upgrade for the bones. The Body Transformation Realm's Bones Enhancement Stage could be said to be the initial level. It will improve your overall bodily strength. Speed, Endurance, Defence, all of that will reach a higher level than the ordinary cultivators.]
Roan already expected this something like that.
"This is a good thing. However, it will take a long time for us to gather that amount of Destiny Points. So let's just forget it for now."
Rean then added.
"As for the third reward, it is pretty much self-explanatory. Sister Orb, how much is the improvement in Spiritual Energy Absorbtion?"
[Each level increases the absorption rate by 5%.]
If Rean and Roan were kids, they might have complained about that amount, but they are not. They know that a simple 5% now would make a gigantic difference in the future. The further they go into the path of cultivation, the greater the difference would be.
"Anyway, let's first focus on the Ape Bones, we can think about the Spiritual Energy Absorbtion later."
Roan then got up.
"Alright, we got everything we needed, let's go."
Rean, on the other hand, shook his head.
"Not yet, there is still one more thing."
"One more thing?"
Rean smiled and then patted Sister Orb.
"Isn't that obvious? Sister Orb will feel lonely if we don't tal-cough, cough. I mean, Sister Orb needs someone to help her feed the database. So we need to give a lot of information. Am I right, Sister Orb?"
Sister Orb then began to roll in circles as if she had been waiting for this.
'I guess this is how Sister Orb shows when she is happy.'
Roan, on the other end, didn't seem very willing to waste more time here.
Rean looked at him and spoke through their Soul Connection.
"Come on, it is also for our own sake. If Sister Orb decides to keep us here, wouldn't it be useless even if you want to leave? It will be a lot better to get on her good sides, and you know that too. Besides, she did help us back in the forest, so we own her this much."
Roan sighed and then sat down again. The twins talked with Sister Orb for hours until finally, she sent them out.

Arnar the Dungeon
Arnar is a dungeon core. Everybody knows dungeons are evil, man-eating entities hell-bent on killing and absorbing whatever wanders inside their depths. The problem is no one ever told him that. Well, the truth is no one ever told him anything and he refused powers-that-be when they tried to make him into the proper dungeon. That should teach them not resurrect people into dungeon cores. Now it is too late. He has a perfect plan to become the best dungeon on the continent and nothing will stand in his way. Especially something called common sense. Disclaimer of sorts: I am non-native English writer that used to write mostly for himself. After my last computer decided to die on me taking all my works with it I lost the desire to write for quite a long time. This is my attempt to go find motivation to write again as this was my favourite hobby. The idea is to be held accountable. As for being non-native, I don't believe that should be a major issue as I feel my proficiency in English to be sufficient enough to not be too much of the distraction. That said, be forewarned that the rules governing punctuation are beyond my grasp. All I can do is try not to completely suck at that. As mentioned this is an attempt to motivate me to write again so any message, encouragement or constructive criticism will go long way. The cover was created with the help of http://fantasynamegenerators.com/emblem-creator.php I hope you will enjoy my story.

Stolen by the System
Lost. Vulnerable. Alone. What would you sacrifice to get home? Kidnapped on the cusp of graduation, Jake is dumped into a deadly world of levels and magic. His dreams shattered again, he’s left with a choice: fight or die – and Death won’t let him go that easily. A savage wolf, a horrific secret, and an abhorrent quest make day one the second worst day of his life. Whatever bastard is pulling the strings is due one hell of a reckoning. On the plus side, there’s magic, and Jake’s got the stats to master it. Spells not included, but, hey, creating spells and programming are basically the same thing, right? At least Spellcrafting is slightly less suicidal than trying to stop the encroaching dungeon spawn threat. Because why wouldn’t there be an apocalypse in progress. All the more reason to find his way back fast. Unfortunately, the path home leads right into the heart of danger. Fighting monsters, dungeon delving, solving puzzles – whatever it takes, Jake is finding his way home. He’ll need allies. Powerful allies, like a trainee ranger who struggles to find her hairbrush. Pointy ears, executive dysfunction, and a perilously gutsy moral compass – what more could one want in a Companion? Alas, beggars can’t be choosers. He needs every edge he can get. Going home means finishing his quest. That quest. The quest that doesn’t deserve completion. Save your father, save the world. Update Schedule: Monday/Wednesday/Friday. Temporarily ad hoc.

Being Frank
**Author's Note** This was my 7th attempt at writing this story. I've worked on the story since 20 years ago but my writing style and skills haven't been satisfactory to me. So after working as a digital content manager for 2 years and after a very long deliberation I've decided to drop this 7th attempt and start on my 8th attempt. This 8th attempt will be the same story but starting from a different point in the timeline of my story. Thank you for your support on this 7th try, it is only due to your reviews and comments that I have the confidence to work hard on my 8th attempt. I started on my 8th attempt with the intention that my 8th attempt will be the final one as I'm a lot more confident and content with my where my writing skills are currently at. Volume 1 In a world filled with magic, war, giants and other awesome races lives Frank. Who being Frank is somewhat of a hermit. He loves to tinker with various contraptions trying to bend the laws of magic to his will. Through his successes he has garnered some attention; unwanted attention. If only that was all there was to it. .... war is coming Volume 2 Frank was born as a normal child, born in a normal family. His father was a scientist and was busy working most days. This is also why Frank was especially excited when his father decided to take an extended holiday to travel to Asia with his family. But their trip turns out to be one from which there is no going back. Writer's notice: I will continue to participate in the NaNoWriMo every November till I finish all that I have planned to write. I expect to have this story finished in 14 years approximately.Update:I was unhappy with how I had first written the first and second volume but am leaving the editing and finishing of those volumes till later and have started on the third one. The chronological order so far is 2-1-3. Might fix that too later.
