《Adventures of a Reluctant Pacifistic Monster》Ch.1 The Black Couch
Advertisement
Where you ever in a point in life where everything was going fine. Like nothing magical was happening to you but you also weren’t cursing the universe.
I was at that place. I had a stress-free job that got the bills paid, with some money left over to spend on whatever I liked. My apartment was great, and I would mostly spend my free time there just lazing around watching TV or reading a book.
Life was good, but that all changed.
As he was laying on his bed, reading on the phone his bed started to shake. It got stronger and stronger until he started to freak out. Earthquakes are common for him, but he had never felt one so powerful before. He was just going to ignore it until it passed but it kept on getting stronger and it didn’t seem like it was going to stop anytime soon. So, he finally got up and tried to find cover under his bed only for a bookshelf to tip over, crushing him in the process.
And that was it, that’s the last thing he remembers. Or it be if hadn’t woken up in a bright white room.
‘What the hell…’ he thought as started looking around trying to figure out what was happening. He checked himself out and he seemed fine, not even remotely injured by the falling bookshelf. Looking around again he could see that the room seemed to go on forever. It seemed infinitely huge while also making him feel claustrophobic.
He had to stop looking around, so he focused on the only thing in the room, a large black couch. The intense black color seemed to complement the room nicely and well it helped him ignore the anxiety he was developing.
‘Ok, I’m dead’ was the only thing he could think of, how else could I have gotten here. After he started to calm down from his anxiety attack, he noticed that nothing had changed.
He decided to do the only thing he could, investigate the mysterious couch. At least that would give him something to do. As he walked around the thing nothing happened so he did the only thing you can do with a couch, he sat on it. It was incredibly comfortable and as he sank down into the cloud like cushions a giant screen appeared in front of him.

Hello!
If you are seeing this then you are one lucky fellow!
You will have the opportunity to be part of a very exclusive club…
The One More Chance club!!!
He was shocked by the sudden appearance of what seemed to be a screen. After a while of opening and closing his eyes, he started to rub them until he was sure he wasn’t hallucinating.
‘What the… I guess I really am dead, but what the hell is this?’ The one more chance club, does that mean I’m going to reincarnate like in that book my nephew gave me?’
Bingo!
Now let’s get to it!
All you must do is answer a few questions and then…
The FUN can begin!!!
Any Questions?
“Wait! are you a real person…’
OK!!! So, no questions, good!
Have FUN!!
“Wait! Damn it! I have like a million questions!” he yelled but nobody answered. The words, from whoever that was, had disappeared from the screen only to be replaced by others.
After yelling a bit more he couldn’t help but sigh in resignation as he sank more into the couch. He focused his attention back at the screen to read the new information.
Would you like to start?

‘So, it just deleted my name, race, and gender. Awesome, that seems about right. Do I not at least get a choice in the world I’m going to? That’s to bad, it would be great to go to a utopia where everyone was happy, nice and problems could be solved with the power of friendship. But no such luck. At least I can pick my new race… god dammit! What’s with these choices!
Porcupine Type Monster
Bobcat Type Monster
Bunny Type Monster
“Son of a …” what the hell should I choose! They all suck!

Please Chose a Race
He started to sigh and gave up once the message reappeared. He knew that he had to pick one, he didn’t have another choice.
‘Ok, so picking the bunny’s out of course. That just leaves me with the other two. The bobcat seems like the stronger choice but I’m not a great fighter. Also, I was allergic to meat when I was human so… I hope that won’t get carried over. For my first-time eating meat to be when its raw and blooded, yeah, no thanks.
How about a porcupine. They’re nice and have lots of quills to stab any other animals that may want to attack me. I can also hide in some trees and eat all the tasty fruits and plants I can find. Yup, lets go with the porcupine.’

You are now ready to commence your new life.
But before you are reborn would you like to spin the WHEEL OF CHAMPIONS!
Y/N
“HOW WAS THAT A TUTORIAL!”
He once again sighed in resignation and just decided to get this over with, he had enough.
“Yes, spin the wheel lets get this over with” Once he said that a wheel magically appeared next to him. On the wheel he could see what he assumed to be prizes, like free skills, titles and points. He didn’t even bother to question it; he just gave it a hard push and it started to spin.
As the wheel started to slow down, he saw that it was getting close to the only spot on the wheel he didn’t want it to land on. A big space that just said, “BAD LUCK”. As it stopped there, he couldn’t he but curse. “Of fucken course! How can I have such shitty luck?!”
Ding!
Congratulations!
You have landed on the super special!!! 777 Space
As that space is right in between the Bad Luck Space
You are very Lucky (UNLUCKY)
Finding Rewards…
You’ve Received 777 System Points ANDDDDD….
A NUGET OF TRUTH!!!!
As he read the latest information, he couldn’t figure out how to feel. He wanted to feel happy that he didn’t have to deal with whatever the bad space did, but the badly hidden message didn’t do anything to reassure him. At least he got some system points out of it and whatever the nugget of truth was supposed to be. As he was thinking that the screen reappeared.
You may now use the system shop.
But you should totally check out the nugget of truth first!!!
Enter shop Y/N OR!!!
READ NUGGET OF TRUTH YES! Or YES!
“You Win, just show me the nugget of truth, alright.
Haha!!
Good let me load it right up!!!
This might hurt a bit, but you'll get used to it!!!
(Eventually)
“WAIT, NEVERM…” And that was all he could get out before he blacked out.

Obligate of a Self-Ordained Sorcerer
Come join the Discord! It was a typical late-night friday for Mara, secluded in her apartment in front of a digital expanse, relentlessly mashing code into a keyboard. An introverted workaholic, but this was what she wanted - what she had strived so hard to achieve. So why did she feel so lost? Her life was productive, comfortable, satisfying. Plenty had it worse but she still felt... ungrateful? Stunted? The right word escaped her, but she could feel the general revelation settling upon her. With it came a choice that would set events in motion far beyond the meager scope of a 'New Game+'. So taking an intrusive portal to god-knows-where, Mara will come to find that her new world offers boons and banes with equal abandon. Magic, skills, and unforgiving difficulty. For a frail human shut-in, finding herself stranded in the middle of a sprawling dungeon was one of the least desirable outcomes. Food and water would be the least of her problems, why oh why couldn't she just get summoned by some pervy king to slay a demon army or something? This is a story of magic and adventure with skills and stats galore. A litrpg / isekai epic that I've been inspired to make after years of wonderful works like "So I'm a Spider," "Rimuru the Slime," "Azarinth Healer," "Negima!?," and plethora of other isekai and fantasy novels and animes. Special shout-out to Douglas Adams, a big influence on narative humor that's had a non-insignificant effect on my writing style. I hope you enjoy joining Mara on her journey as I attempt to scratch the itch they left behind.Chapters target 3-6k~ words. Though I'm personally aiming for a chapter every couple weeks, I think I can at least promise one a month with how busy work's been. I made a Patreon due to requests, if you'd like to support me there I'll be using it to fund artwork and RR ads for increased exposure.

Arduous New World
Alright, so I'm using this as a whetstone to practice my fiction writing. I have dyslexia, so bear with me if I have any mistakes, if you point them out I'll try and correct them. The story is LitRPG, I'll try and avoid some of the tropes, see FAQ. What happens is that the world turns out to be a simulation coming to an end, and beginning on its new simulation, in this process the system of the universe declares that the new simulation will be rpg-based. The protagonist however is thrust into an empty space before the simulation comes to an end, he escapes and finds that the world as he knew it is gone.Chapters will come sporadically as I'm quite busy IRL. FAQ1: There will be no Harem. 2: If any sexual content, it will be be below the screen, example sentence [they made love - or - they had sex]3: I'll try to keep character motivations steady instead of having characters who says and does one thing in one chapter, only to change their mind in the next one. 3: Villains or "bad guys" won't be charicatures. Of course, as in real life, you can meet these people, but as far as big bads or antagonists goes, they will have some modicum of intelligence. 4: The MC does not have an encyclopedia of random knowledge. 5: OP'ness won't happen overnight, and it is something that I'm wary of in terms of adding it, of course eventually the MC will grow more powerful, but there won't be any cheats, except hard work; and the luck factor will be more or less similar to the rest of the population. 6: He won't be opposing the universe, no matter how powerful he grows, he is too insignificant7: he won't become friends with god/the ghost in the shell etc, no matter how powerful he grows, he is too insignificant, and an ancient simulation ai has no interest anyway, why would it ? Okay that's that for now.

The Spark
Michael Locke was a normal student, who went through his normal day in a normal fashion, until the day became... unnatural. Shot into the country of Aldemar and thrust into a new world alongside his many classmates, he agrees to work for the king in exchange for shelter and to learn magic. Fate however, is indifferent to his wishes, as he quickly realizes that he may be a hero, but his purpose in this world is quite opposite. Suddenly surrounded on every side, Michael must work to survive, and if anyone finds his secret... He's as good as dead. The Spark is meant to be a murder mystery style isekai, focused on the existence of basically an anti-hero, with every one of the large amount of heroes attempting to discover who the traitor is. This isn't made to be a lovey dovey easy going isekai with an OP mc, it's made to stir around an emotional story, with many dark tones. Still, the goal is to stay fairly light hearted as well, and the perspective will pass around to several characters throughout the story.
