1.Beginning of everything
“Hell, where am I ? Why is this dude looking at me? Get away from me man”.
“Hey !Hey !Hey don’t kiss.” I am a man damn it.
A broad brown skin man held a small new born baby in his two majestic arms. Beside him is a jade like beautiful woman looking exhausted maybe from giving birth.
Who are these two? My hands are small, am I a baby? Yes I remember I got into an accident. After that I lost my conscious and now when I woke up I am a baby? Is it like the web novels where the character gets reborn with heroes halo. I don’t like it, I don’t want to be a hero or save the world.
Is this broad looking man my father. And the beautiful women my mother.
His eyes were shining. Tears flows down his baby cheeks. He was a orphan in his previous life, except doing his part time job the only thing he was interested in was novels. He read books, watched videos, his entire world revolved around novels and animes. And one day after buying his monthly novel when he was coming home , on the alley he saw a rich man pointing a gun towards a lady.He wanted to mind his own business but the man nervously pointed his gun towards him and fired.
“Oh, Honey look you made him cry. I told you to hold him gently”
“I held him down gently. Look I even gave him a kiss”
“You don’t cry when I give you a kiss do you” the man said.
The women turned to her child rolling her eyes. Taking the baby back from his hands.
The baby looked at his mother like he has seen a shinning star in the dark universe. He couldn’t understand them as he did’t know the language and neither his vocal cords are developed as he is a new born baby.

Hell man, why did the man point his gun towards me, for a gun loving man that’s the worst possible way of way of dying. Looks like I have to stay here for the time being.
This world is not looking bad btw. From the house it looks like a late European era. Time Travel? Gosh! Do I have to eat bread and butter they show on the tv?
“Honey, look our child is just staring at the wall. Did something happened while giving birth”
“Don’t worry he must be thinking of something”
“What do you know. Have you seen a new born baby thinking?”
“Okay, I will go and call some”
“Just hurry”
What a nice day is today. I should better go to work. Wait, today is first of April. I must not give chance to anyone in the hospital to play a prank on me. Who do you think I am. I am doctor Rish do you think you’re gonna make a fool out of me every year. Today is my day.
“HAHAHA”
“Doctor, doctor please come with me. Please look what happened to my child”.
Henry just dragged the doctor with him.
“Wait, Wait”
What’s going on? Who is this? I am a doctor damn it ! Doctors have no respect in this hospital. Wait a minute why are we going to the maternity department everyone knows that I am a surgeon. Is this a prank again?? I will not fall for it this time. Let’s play the game you started.
Who is this old man? Why is he wearing a white robe? Is he going for a bath? Do it somewhere else idiot.
Umm. I don’t see any abnormality with this kid. This must be a prank I am sure of it. Let’s see.
The doctor extended his hands a purple halo appeared below his body . The whole room became purplish blue colour.

The child stared at the doctor with his eyes wide open. Holy moly is that, Magic??? I travelled to a magical world? Sorcerer Magician? But what is this purple halo below him.
He looked at his mothera and father. They were okay with it. Looks like I am in a different world after all. He calmed down as getting reborn was already the greatest shock he received today. Maybe something new and more shocking thing will come out later.
What’s happening to my body. It’s comforting like I am in a soft pillow sleeping in the grassland and the sun is slowly shinning in my face. Is this magic, I knew it’s not so simple and now magic. I hit jackpot. Maybe I am child prodigy that’s gonna rule this world. Hahaha. Magic left his body back to the doctor he could easily feel it.
Everything is fine. The boy looks healthy. He is even laughing. No spiritual power, obviously he is a child. This time I am not gonna fall for it.
“Sorry gentleman, I have bad news”
“What happen doctor?? Is he okay??”
“Sorry to say but he is born dumb”. Take this sucker.
“Waaaaaaaa” cries the mother.
“Doctor, is there anything we can do please”.
“Nothing, sorry”.
She cries even more. Seeing her cry, eyes of the man became red, small water droplets could be seen rolling down his cheeks but he has to do his best to console her. So, he hugged her.
Huh! Why are they crying so much? Are they not acting? Better tell them the truth.
“Doctor, Doctor”
“What are you doing here please come to the emergency room immediately”. The nurse pulled the doctor out to the emergency room.
“I guess, I will just tell them later”. The doctor left.

Core and Guide
A story about the awakening, and subsequent life, of an ordinary Dungeon Core. Along with a Guide, their only goal is to survive long enough to become the greatest Dungeon. How can an ordinary Core accomplish this when facing off against the world's ‘chosen’? Those who rush to his home for riches, glory, and everything in between. This Core knows one thing, though. Not every Two-legged freak that walks into their Dungeon can be a Hero. Authors Note - This will be my first attempt at writing, and any criticism is welcome. If you see any grammatical mistakes please let me know. I hope you have as much fun reading this as I will writing it.
8 136Hell's Insanity
"For it was told by the old books, where angels and demons collide" "When gods shall stretch their rule and dominion" "Ye have not be forgotten" "For men shall covet power". ...........................................................................In the year 3040 Earth has reached its limits, its resources depleted, its ecosystem destroyed, even humanity hangs on its last rope due to its severe overpopulation. Conquering space was our only hope, but with the help of several talented scientists in their various fields coming together, made the dream a possibility. Unfortunately, in the year 3045, an earthquake on a global scale sent every human on earth into a frenzy. At that point, a voice was heard by everyone, as a template hanged in the sky. A question with two choices, an answer that decided one's destiny from that day onward. But unfortunately, not everyone picked the right choice. Elijah kingsman was a 19 years old university freshman, who had just escaped the horrors of world war 3, couldn't have picked a better day to make the worst decision of his life. As his judgement, his very being was sent to limbo by an undead giant. There he meets an imp far different from his average fantasy personage. Coerced to make a deal, Elijah made a deal that would change his life forever................................................................................ “Don’t worry boy” “It seems I haven’t introduced myself,” the imp said widening the smile on its face. “I am Deltrich, ‘he who bears the Principality of knowledge’” Elijah wasn’t sure if he saw a ray of light coming from Deltrich. But he was sure of one thing, that this was no ordinary imp. Deltrich who was already done with his introduction, saw Elijah looking at him in awe, puffed his chest up in pride. “I am sure there’s nothing you have that I want and nothing you can give that I desire”. Deltrich said choosing to break the atmosphere. “In other words, a deal which I’m sure would be satisfying to both parties” Elijah who wasn’t used to this type of situation scrunched his face up in frustration. He knew Deltrich,’ the Imp’ wasn’t his usual fantasy personage, so he decided to keep his mouth shut and listen to what Deltrich had to say. “In return, you shall ask me anything you want and I shall offer if it’s beneath my power”. Elijah still didn’t respond, instead, he waited for the creature to continue with its proposal after all it would be a miracle if it was easy but he knew there was no such thing as an easy way out, so he waited.............................................................................
8 207A World With or Without Aliens
Nothing matters. It's not my opinion, it's a scientific fact. This is neither good nor bad, it just... is. I watched my entire country burn, fried on a patriotic pan after some jerk fired a bunch of nukes at the docile fleet of alien ships hovering over us. Who gave this moron such power? I don't know. Everyone involved is most likely dead by now. As for me, I can't die. I feel pain like a normal person would (I think), but no matter how terrible the conditions, I will never die or pass out. Fortunately, a lot of alien technology survived its crash to Earth, so I get to spend some time playing with it until Mr. Author gets bored and decides to screw up my life. Beware, this has a "harem" tag. If you haven't figured it out yet, I'm the main character and am therefore subject to this novel's timeline. While this bars me from the sweet ignorance of Chapter 1's me, it does have other perks... for example, I can tell you that heroine number one is personally responsible for kil-!? H-hey, back off! I'm your character, so if you didn't want me to be like this, then you should've written me differently! Randomguy here! In all seriousness, this novel is meant to explore the concept of nihilism as a post-apocalyptic/supernatural-scifi/satire told from a nihilistic introvert's first-person perspective. As you heard from my unsettled main character, each heroine is going to be a different type of horrifying socio/psychopath with dark motives and dangerous abilities (most of which are psychological). Why would I do something like this? Because I am, in reality, a nihilist who is often frustrated by weird things, like unrealistically dramatic stories, the industrialization of art (specifically music), and people who think swimming in brown creekwater for five hours is a "fun" activity. Don't get me wrong, neither me nor my character are depressed, we're just malcontents who make a lot of nerd references. I feel like the true essence of an "everything is worthless" perspective is lost on most pop-culture figures. The closest character I can think of at the moment is Rick from Rick and Morty, who is a drunk, angry nihilist that experienced tremendous loss. I, personally, find this belligerent state of mind to be very relatable, and have incorperated it into every chapter's introduction. Here, the main character talks directly to the reader (and me), shamelessly complaining about some semi-relevant facet of society, which probably doesn't make much sense... it's not really supposed to, though. These "angry nihilist" moments are just a peak into the main character's everyday existence, and also act as miniature rage-journals for me. It will sometimes take a subjectively 'positive' turn, but not very often. This is because reality isn't good or bad, "it just... is". I will eventually bring it full-circle to optimistic nihilism, since that seems to be a more practical way to live (and by "practical", I mean "doesn't create mental health issues"). It is, of course, a satire. I did this because most unnecessarily emotional moments or people usually make me feel kind of awkward, so I decided to mock them. That is, I plan to mock the characteristics about them I don't like in characters based solely off said characteristics. Thanks for reading, and I hope you enjoy my story!

I was a being that transcended even the Gods.I stood at the top, the apex, the pinnacle of power.And yet here I am. Shackled, powerless; a mere husk of my former self.The memento of my loved one binds me to this cursed place.Why, you ask?Why? Because I am. I am the end, the harbinger of demise. It was my quest. To bring end, to be end.The Gods respected that wish and in turn got immortal life. But, oh the irony, the immortal life I gave them made them break their promise.Corrupted by their attachement to their mortal selves they betrayed me.They took her life, one of their own kind and my love, and bound me with her flesh and blood.She, the Goddess of beginning. I would end the cycle and she would repeat it. We were so different and yet we loved each other.My rage burned without stop in sight, however time takes it all. Hate, love, sadness, joy, they are all taken away.But the memory, the memory of hate, to kill the Gods, this stays. Yes, I will end them.They played me a fool and now it will be their time to pay the price. But the price is costly.I can't wait! Their fall is near! My dawn shall be heralded by their deaths. Corpses shall tower to the skies and blood shall form rivers! As I am death incarnate! I am their bane, their RUIN! You fools, you don't play... with DEATH!My new destiny awaits.....
