"So... where now?" Xiodar asks.
""You are asking us?"" Vampire and succubus asnswered in unsion.
Half hour after launching the gorilla in space, Xiodar is still laying on the ground. He can't move. "I don't fell tired but don't have a feeling of my body. How does it works?"
"You jumped down from high level power to low. Your mind just can't follow the suddenly change. Next time lower your power slowly."
"Thanks Kabarin." Demon lord is satisfied.
"What is god doing here?!" Jael points at Kabarin who just apeared from nowhere.
"I came to scold you!" God of magic shouts. "You maked 90% of the world to go after you! I woldn't care but you don't even have a castle! First make sure you are immortal then go around pissing off everyone!"
"Well... I tried use the ruins of the dead guy's castle but it didn't worked."
"Of course! You need to spend a month in proper castle to make it yours!"
"...How I could get a castle? I wolud have to build or conquer one! I don't know anything about architecture! And if I conquer one other demon lord would just take it back!" Xiodar shouts back.
"Well..."
"...You didn't think about it..."
"*Ekhm* Anyways. Demon lords are after you and you can't go to the human territory. You need to hide and become stronger." Kabarin explains.
"And where is the place safe from Demon lo... I know!" Xiodar shouts.
"Oh no!" Jael protests. "I know what you are thinking and NO!"
"C'mon it won't be that bad!" Demon lord encourages.
"Yeah have more trust in him!" Kabarin follows.
"What are you talking about?" Zelenia is lost. She has no clue what they are talking about.

Everyone looked at her. """Dhanthanos.""" Little demon fainted.
******************
"Ummm." Zelenia wakes up. She quickly looks around and sees that they are traveling with her on Jael's back.
"Something wrong?" Jael asks when he felt the movement.
"*Ehhh*" She sighs. "I had a bad dream where god of magic tells us to go to the Dhanthanos."
"That hapened and we are already here." Xiodar says when he pointed at the giant gate in the mountain ahead.
"EHHH?!"
"Well nobody orders you to go with us." Xiodar says. Zelenia started to smile but then... "Dourin will be happy to see you and the other two surely want to take your info about me."
"Uhhh..." She admits defeat. "What happend after?"
"Xiodar stood up and tried to beat up Kabarin." Jael answers.
"Why?!"
"Metor, desert, lack of informations and sending me for the free fall. That was just one afternoon!" Demon lord complains.
"And who won?"
""He disapeared shortly after."" They answered. Xiodar with a little disappointment.
When they talked they already arrived at the gate. Xiodar came closer and pushed them. Then in the place he pressed, little doors opened and Demon lord falls in. For his misfortune, behind the doors were stairs.
"OW...OW...OW...OW...OW...OW...OW..."
**************
Dungeon are places with high density of mana. Mana concentrates in the dungeon core. Traits of dungeon dependents on the core. Traits like monsters, traps, layout and treasures. When core is strong enought it's forming a body - dungeon lord or boss like a lot of Heroes called them.
The most interesing part for the most of people are treasures. The longer dungeon lives the harder it is and the treasures it holds are stronger.

Dungeon which lived 10 years holds a magic item. The 50 years old can hold the legendary grade item. After 100 years they can hold a holy weapon. The oldest conqured dungeon had over 300 years. It holded 3 holy weapones that are used by leaders of humans. The one who conquered the oldest dungeon is said that he becomed immortal.
Now inside the Dhanthanos, the dungeon old like the world...
"OW...OW...OW...OW...OW...OW...OW!"
Someone almost get killed by the stairs to the 1st room.
"Owww... Well it could be worse. They could go up." Xiodar stands up and looks around. "Déjà vu?" He is surrounded by the giant lizards.
*GRRRRRRR*GRRRRRRR*GRRRRRRR**GRRRRRRR*GRRRRRRR*GRRRRRRR*
*WHOOOSH*
In one swing he killed every enemy in sight. "Truly a déjà vu."
*************
Trio wanders on the 1st floor. It looked like a cave. There was many rooms connected with corridors. Xiodar is walking on front and activates every trap he goes by. He thougt that infinite mana would make him a glass cannon but suprisingly it's opposite.
*WHOOOSH* Another room cleaned. "Isn't it too easy?" Jael comments.
"Well it is the 1st floor." Xiodar looks around. "It will get harder later."
"Whaaa! What is this!" Zelenia points at the big golden doors. "Is there a treasure inside?"
"Or a boss." Xiodar snorts. Then he turned around to his companions. "Were you ever been inside a dungeon?"
""No."" They both shaked their heads.
"Okey so let's see what's inside." He opened the doors. There is nothing. But when they entered...
*BAM* Doors are closed.
*BOOOM* The wall was destroyed by giant pigman.*WHOOOSH* Aaaand he's cut in half.
"I don't get it. How that big monkey blocked it without using mana?"
"Oh you mean Vpierdoll? He is homoculus, his body is a regalia." Zelenia answers.
"...My memory may got bad. He wasn't green right?"
*************
"...So we will make next war quicker...In half year..." Dadros announces.
"Why so soon? It was only 10 years." Uteus asks
"...Because humans are too confident...They will attack in five years..." Dadros explains.
"Yup! That because last time one guy anihilated demon's army!" Ina cherfully ads.
"...And whose fault was that?..." Dark god points her.
"So we will need a Hero?" Kabarin asks. "Who will find one?"
"You don't have any spare soul don't you?" Dapelia questions him.
"Why would I? It's not like I left one... behind..." He widened his eyes. "SH*T! NUMBER 968!"

An Unwavering Craftsman
Given the hereditary nature of classes, everyone expects Damien—the child of two high-tiered adventurers—to be granted a high-tier combat class of his own. Expectations are betrayed, however, when Damien finds himself instead saddled with a crafting class of the lowest possible tier: [Neophyte Tailor]. Left practically crippled compared to those with better classes, Damien wants to avoid becoming a pawn in the machinations of the nobility, desiring only to grind his level in peace while wondering why the usual rules of inheritance were broken. Was it his desire to excel by his own effort, rather than an unearned blessing from a god? Did the Five take offence at his opinions on the unfairness of hereditary classes? Or maybe it was something to do with the alien voice that intruded on his ceremony? A voice that offers great power, and freedom from the tyranny of the Five, but that never names its price. This story is litRPG-lite. While the class someone possesses controls most of their lives, people don't get dinged at for every level they gain, nor can they see their status without undergoing a special ritual. The MC has no romantic interest. Crafting is merely a way to game the system, and doesn't feature heavily in the story, aside from a few descriptions on how they're carrying out the system abuse. There is, on one unfortunate occasion, maths. The pace is quick. This was a participant in the Spring 2022 writathon. (i.e. it was posted as-written at high speed. I may give it another editing pass in the future.)

Transformers: Heroes
Heroic Decepticons Alternate Universe. A century ago, the eons-old war between the Autobots and the Decepticons suddenly and inexplicably came to an end. Since then, many have gone their separate ways, whilst others still hold onto the bitter memories of war. Now, as Autobots and Neutrals join forces in a new directive to capture every Decepticon still left alive, it appears that the Autobots will finally get their chance to even the score, and defeat their enemies once and for all. But when they become the target of seemingly random, yet terrifying attacks, some begin to realize that the enemy may be much closer to home than anyone could have ever imagined. Author's Notes: While it helps to have a little bit of prior knowledge about the world of Transformers, you don't need to be a Transformers fan to enjoy this story, or even a Decepticons fan! One thing I can say for sure is that it is unlike any Transformers fan fiction you've ever come across. This story aims to explore one possible set of motivations in depth in a setting of ongoing conflict between the Autobots (and, more recently, the Alliance - a collaboration between Autobots and Neutrals) and the Decepticons. Although this story takes a lot of things from the G1 cartoon, it is by no means strictly G1 toon oriented and introduces characters and/or ideas from other continuities (Sentinel Prime, Jhiaxus, Thunderblast and Rook (not the Autobot Rook - the other Rook!). Set primarily on Cybertron and Alternity City, it also deviates from certain key elements common in Transformers canon. For one thing, the general consensus that all Autobots are good and all Decepticons are bad is challenged, and a new meaning to the motivations behind their conflict is offered (which is a recurring theme in my Heroic Decepticons Alternate Universes). Some personalities have been altered from their canonical profiles as a necessity (Megatron being the most obvious example) and developed to a much deeper level than the original cartoon allowed. I hope you enjoy and thanks for reading.
