Thank you for your comments! I will try to improve myself.
------------------------------
Single soul is waiting in the world of darkness.
‘’I will be back’ he said, but how long it has been?’
Soul didn’t know that in that place time doesn’t flow. He couldn’t even tell how long it has been, because souls don’t feel hunger or even boredom. Hundred years could have passed without him realizing.
‘Did I ask for too much?’ Soul wondered.
He suddenly heard a familiar voice. „I’m back.”
He really appeared…and wasn’t alone. Beside him stood a young man with black hair, pointy ears, red eyes and pair of horns going from forehead up and backwards. His build was slim but you could see some muscles. He is wearing tank top and pants, both black and made from some kind of leather.
„You like it? It is your new body.” God have proudly said.
„What’s up with that outfit?” He replied.
„Oh. It is mana garments. To be honest it is a removable skin, a lot of demons have it.” Gandalf explains.
„Well at last I won’t be naked.”
“The best part is you can regenerate it like your own body when it rips.” God nod to himself. ”Then let’s put you in.” He reaches for him and with swift movement thrown the soul in direction of the body.
When the soul enters the body, it couches like it was hit in the stomach.
"*cough* So I can breathe now, what about the gift?”
"Very well, listen. From now you will be called Xiodar. In my world the last names of the demons are more like a titles so you have to earn it.” He point at Xiodar chest. "To make your gift work you have a Philosopher’s Stone in place of your hearth.” Then he close his eyes and explain. "This is your weakness. Stone is destroyed and you are dead.”

"So I am Demon lord and my weakness is my hearth? That’s pretty funny.” Demon grined.
The god chuckled. "Hehe… It is, but don’t you worry. Stone is naturally surrounding itself with a invincible mana barrier.”
„So what kind of weakness is that?” Xiodar asks.
„Barrier is also limiting your access to the Stone so to use more power you have to make a crack in the barrier.”
‘So destroy own armour to gain a strength? But I can make a barrier around my body so it won’t be unprotected?’
"*ekhm* Now I need to tell you what to do. Basically do what you want, but you really need to gain 2 things.”
"I really need?” He asked confused. ’So they will give me a job to do?’
"The first thing you would probably gain either way, it is a Regalia, the artefact of Demon lord, it is basically item with your mana infused in it. You would likely do that with something random if I didn’t tell you. Second thing is a castle. And that is important.”
„Why the castle is so important?”
„It allows you to revive yourself.”
‘Oh yeah, he did mention the Dracula. I didn’t expect it to be so accurate.’
"So I am Kabarin the god of magic, I wish you a good luck.” He point towards demon.
‘!’
In the instant Xiodar jumped away. After, in the same place he stood, a hole appeared. It looks like he avoided a fall from the sky.
"Too predictable.” Xiodar snickers.
“Oh but you are playing MY game.” Kabarin grin to him.
When Demon lord looked at him confused the entire floor disappeared.
“D*CK MOVEEEEEE” Shouts the falling man.

In the middle of the Cursed Desert.

*BOOOOOOOOOOM*
Lays a bloody smear known as Xiodar.
‘Looks like this body has a high pain resistance.’
He twitched trying to move. ’Ouch’ In that moment a black smoke started to wrap his body. ’So I will heal automatically? Saves trouble to learn healing magic… and the anatomy.’ In ten seconds he was patched up.
‘So where I am?’ Looking around he could see only a desert and some rocks far away. To his surprise the sand was reddish.
‘Well this isn’t normal…oh a cactus… but it is grey…’ He looked at the place he was laying moment ago. There was a lot of blood. Purple blood.
‘I hope I didn’t become a colour-blind’ He joked in his head.
‘Okay let’s figure out magic and blow up something’ He started to focus his ki mana like in the chinese cartoons. Before him appeared a pitch black ball that was letting out a smoke. ’Yup now let’s test it.’
He thrown the ball at the grey cactus near. He missed.
‘Well… that was expected’
In previous life even in the FPS games he was running around with a knife. He has a terrible aim.
‘So it isn’t a body that affected my horrible shooting skills?’ When he was depressing himself the ball hit the ground.
*BOOM*
It has at least power of a C4. ’It wasn’t even hard to make…’ Next he created five balls floating behind him. ’Now go!’
*BOOM**BOOM**BOOM**BOOM**BOOM*
It have a incredible power. But the cactus was still standing. ’This cactus is the strongest enemy I have ever encountered.’ And the only one.
He created another ball in his hand then he tried to shape it. The effect was a dark pole that was emitting a smoke. ’It is a time of revenge.’ He waved his weapon without effort and the cactus in a distance of 10 meters is cleanly cut. ’Sweet.’
„Fear Xiodar the cactus reaper!” He shouted like a idiot.
*GRRRRRRR* ’Huh?’
The cactus reaper turned around to find a monster. It looked like a wolf except it was definitely a lizard. Just take lizard, shape it like a wolf and make it huge like a cow. It looked at the demon with bloody eyes.
‘TAKE THIS!’ Xiodar swing his pole and cut it in a half. ’That will teach you to don't stare at people! HAHAHAHA….’
When he was full of himself he noticed something. There was no blood. ’Eh?’
*GRRRRRRR*GRRRRRRR*GRRRRRRR*
*Gulp* When he was staring at the dead body he didn’t noticed when he was surrounded by 20 lizards.
„Okay you want have a dinner? I will let you taste death.”
*GRRRRRRR*GRRRRRRR*GRRRRRRR*
„Hard public.”
********
In the plane of gods.
Kabarin appears from the pillar of light. ”Yo Esxis how is that guy doing.” He asked the girl with silver hair and white dress.
„Not bad. After he get himself together he started playing with his balls” Exis said in a expressionless voice.
„I seWHAT?!”
„Then he cut cactus with his pole.”
„ARE YOU SE…”
„And now is killing Komolfs with it.”
„….damn.”

The Laptop Hero (Portal/Isekai LitRPG)
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] - April 2022 Silas got summoned to another world—by a group of kids attending magic school who seemed rather unhappy with the results of their ritual. After a brief glimpse of his summoners Silas woke in the town dump. Unable to speak the local language, a misunderstanding escalated and before long Silas wound up in a jail cell, the locals having confiscated all his worldly possessions aside from his laptop, which had formed some strange bond with him. Now he can summon his laptop at will, and he can view his Status, level up, and gain powerful skills and magic as if he were some character in a video game, which is great and everything, but all Silas really wants to do is sit in a dark room and play games on his laptop. Only, life isn't a game, and Silas needs to get his act together because everyone else is playing for keeps. Or does he? Maybe for Silas life is just one big game now, with everyone else stuck playing by his rules. Assorted Disclaimers, in no particular order: I am only posting this on RoyalRoad.com, so if you find my story elsewhere it was not posted by me. Please do let me know! While I do consider this a progression fantasy, and have tagged it as such, Silas's Status improvements will not necessarily proceed in a linear fashion. His RPG stats will have ups and downs, exploits and nerfs, periods of growth and stagnation. Such is the life of a gamer, to be held under the thumb of the all powerful devs, or in this case a certain goddess devoted to the idea of Balance. SIlas himself should learn and grow, improving and progressing in areas where he struggles, or rather, to show such is my goal. The story is told from multiple points of view. While other PoVs will come and go, Silas shall remain the only lead character. The world Silas finds himself on is not a nice place. Expect him to encounter gore and traumatizing content and bad people who do bad things for selfish (or possibly noble) reasons from time to time. Some characters will use profanity, however due to cultural differences the curse words used will differ from those used in our corner of reality, so I'm not including the profanity content warning. Silas himself isn't one for foul language. No explicit sexual content here. This novel is intended for mature readers, however, and will include mature topics, including, but not limited to, sex, violence, death, and taxes. No harem. Might be an eventual romantic interest, possibly even some competitive jealousy, yet as his story begins Silas is too overwhelmed with other concerns to consider long term plans. Musophobics might want to steer clear of this story. Same goes for turophobics. You have been warned. Keep in mind, however, if my other disclaimers didn't make this clear, I only have the faintest of outlines at the moment. This story will take me where it will. My goal with this story is to write it to the end, something of a long-term writing exercise, with the hope others might take an interest in my work and encourage me to keep at it. I've started a number of works before, even finished a few, but this is the first time I've shared any work in a public forum. My temporary cover was made by me, in GIMP using public domain images. If you can do better I'll happily accept your submission and give credit for your work here!
