《A Time for Leisure》Prologue
Advertisement
On the continent of Tairo, mortals tend to live a very content life, even if most of them are under the fingers of cultivators. The strength of cultivators, even the weakest of them can easily kill 10 mortals in a few swipes. The strongest do not even need to be near them for their lives to end abruptly.
Cultivators can be seen everywhere, maybe a young child walking around the streets, maybe an old man begging for money in exchange for a fortune, or maybe that nice older woman down the road. While some prefer to hide their cultivation, most love to flaunt their power in front of people that they deem to be unworthy to even be in their presence. Most of the time, it's young cultivators that think their strength can rule the world.
Cultivation is a long and arduous task for many to even begin, all the mindless killing for resources, accidentally offending a clan and having to hide and get stronger for even an attempt at revenge while the clan tries to hunt you down for some petty reason like not showing respect to their younger generation.
Then there's our protagonist, a monstrosity at cultivation, but that is his only talent, he is youngest person to ever achieve Godhood, but he's tired of all this mindless killing even on the higher realms, the only reason he ever went through all this bullshit, was just so that he could relax and not have to worry about not being able to protect himself from idiots attempting to murder him for some stupid reason, and now that he's at the top of the world, it still keeps fucking happening?
"Screw this shit, I'm still young, why would I want to kill random people I don't even have a grudge with all my life?!" (Caz)

Caz couldn't take it anymore, he was only 23 for crying out loud, did people really expect him to do this forever?! What if I want to find love, marry a couple thousand ladies and settle down?! WHERE'S MY CHOICE?!
He was "forced" to help the other Gods with random things, most had to do with taking care of rogue Gods that just happened to piss off someone that they should have avoided.
The only good thing about going to the higher realm, is that the Goddesses there were world dominating beauties, at least he could flirt somewhat with them, the age gap between them wasn't a very major thing, since the lifespans of cultivators is almost endless, even at the lower levels.
In the end, he didn't have much more to do anymore, there weren't any important things that had to be done, just lazing around was his routine for a few years. No one really ever tried to mess with him, for some reason, he was curious, but didn't really feel like asking.
Caz couldn't really take the boredom anymore, the Goddesses were busy with matters in their clans, the Gods as well, even some of his closer friends had no free time to even grab dinner together, so he had a lucrative idea, what if he just goes down to the lower realms? That sounds like fun, a whole new adventure to play around with.
Most people spend most of their beginning cultivation years within the lower realms, but Caz was an exception, as he was a monster when it came to cultivation, he was blindingly fast when it came to "leveling up", so he only spent a good 3-5 years down there before he ascended. It's pretty weird for a 15 year old boy to just suddenly ascend to the higher realms by himself.

"Hmm... I do still think about the people in the village from time to time, old granny Johanna made the best muffins, eh fuck it, might as well have a little vacation, I think I deserve it! Look at me, the most handsome Devil you'll ever see, who would dare say I don't deserve a little break?!" (Caz)
And so, just because he missed the muffins from his village elder, the young God decided to take a little break from this duties, let's see how much of a mess he'll make, shall we?

The Curio Shoppe
Kellan Klein is an ordinary college student with an average, if traumatic and painful past. Everyone grows up grappling with depression and anxiety that seem to be genetic in a house with parents that, while loving, fight all the time and have weird ideas about what kids should and shouldn't do, right? Everyone deals with bullying, racism, judgement on their romantic inclinations and their family's economic status and just general shittiness, right? All of Kellan's friends sure did, and for all of them, entertaiment media were a welcome escape from their painful, dreary lives. After all, who wouldn't want to sail the seas with Monkey D. Luffy and the Strawhats, or help Meng Hao con increasingly powerful and influential people, or join Cecil Harvey and his friends on their weird journey to save the world, or make friends with Peter Parker while pretending to not know he was everyone's favorite wall-crawling superhero? Kellan certainly wanted to, and while he pursued college to seek out a career he saw himself enjoying, something felt inexplicably empty about his life. So when a decidely sinister force kidnaps him and the prettiest man he's ever seen saves his life and offers him his wildest dreams, Kellan becomes the shopkeeper of a mysterious, dimension hopping shop, complete with a system that helps him acquire items. abilities, materials, and other cool shit to stock it with, as well as some other neat perks. Will Kellan become a boring overpowered MC, like the kind from web fiction that he reads to sate his boredom? Will he keep his generally kind, sweet nature despite the shit he's gone through and will go through, or will he inexplicably become a scary, violent, irrational arrogant douchebag? Will he use his newfound abilities to explore the multiverse and improve the lives of himself and others, or will he become his own antithesis, a purely mercantile jerk obsessed with money and profit, with no concern for anything that doesn't help or hurt his business? Find out in The Curio Shoppe! Author's note: Please suggest possible setting he could visit in the comments. I'll gather ones i'm familiar with, and at the end of every arc, a poll will be held to decide the next location he visits. There will be polls for other purposes, and I might not always go with the poll winner if I feel one of the other options is more fun to read/write about. I will not use the settings of other RRL writers without their permission.Do not ask for that, unless the author in question gives permission. Most settings he visits will be slightly AU in some way or another, but please remind me if I drift too far from canon unintentionally or characterize a character wrongly. This work will eventually fit all tags I selected once he visits universes suited to those tags, so don't ask when or where a given tag is coming. I do not own the cover art, it belongs to Nicholas Belanger Thiel, and I will stop using it if he asks me to. Kellan doesn't look like the old man on the cover, though once he acquires a disguise-type ability he may occasionally use that appearance. The tapir, however, will be a thing, as despite looking like a failed attempt at an elephant, tapirs are cool and this dragon finds them to be kinda cute. The art, along with more of Nicholas's pieces, can be found at https://www.artstation.com/artwork/51bXz

Party Leveling
{A new notification has arrived.} In front of a few people, these hologram-looking messages appeared and changed their lives in entirely different forms. Things such as growing stronger, becoming smarter, feeling more agile, became possible within short periods of time from that point onwards. The one who regretted his weak healing abilities for years began to chase after the magic powers that could turn reason and sense upside down while keeping his goal, this duty to the wrongs he committed. The other one, who complained about his lack of strength, strove towards the path of an unbeatable champion to protect those he held dear. When the person who had everything found a path to desire for more, not fearing the consequences and the obstacles, he also began to walk onwards to a new life. And among them, the one who walked aimlessly but also never stepped down on the choices he made along the way, was the one who couldn’t be ignored nor disrespected by anyone. The “Player” system that they all obtained, and which granted them several abilities, knowledge and directions, was also the beginning of an entire new era in this world where monsters, magic and technology, were already common and wide-spread. There’s not a single hero, but after committing mistakes after mistakes, learning from the painful and thorny path that they take, and growing as people with the people that surround them, then someday... there will certainly be saviors. [Quick reminder that this novel is also being published in Webnovel(dot)com and ScribbleHub(dot)com]
