《Pink Mage》The knights who say 'Knee'.
Advertisement
“We are the knights who say ‘Knee’.” Said the council.
“Ni?” Said another one of the knights.
“We are the knights who say ‘Knee’.” Said the council.
“Nee?” Said yet another knight.
“We are the knights who say ‘Knee’.” Said the council.
“Nenur nenur, pumpkin eater?” Said a random troll.
“We are the knights who say ‘Knee’.” Said the council.
“Nenu nenu?” Said a random well respected comedian that brought many laughs to the world.
“We are the knights who say ‘Knee’.” Said the council.
And as the author grew bored of their juvenile display he clicked the fast forward button.
And so 10 minutes passed.
Then 10 days passed,
And 10 years passed,
And 100 years passed,
And 1000 years passed.

And now we finally appear at the present day. And low and behold the knights who say ‘Knee’ are still arguing to this day!
“Finally it is mine masterpiece! I hath done it and eth shall be named as such!” Said a well financed but slightly overworked author as he held up the scroll of his writing that was his finest work.
“You missed the ‘,’ after finally and you spelled ‘the’ wrong. In addition I’m not sure speaking in an old english fake accent is appropriate for your audience. Plus, in your script you have spelled ‘the’ as ‘teh’, ‘hte’, ‘het’, ‘eht’ and several other permutations of the word in the wrong way. Also, on page 6 line 42 there was another mistake and I think it would have a better flow for the reader if it was swapped with page 6 line 127 and the corresponding sentences rearranged to reflect the changes.” Said a Knight who says ‘Knee’.
The author, who was now ignoring the tirade of the man, slowly withdrew a pistol from his desk drawer. It was an isekai invention, a ‘gun’, specifically a desert eagle. Why was it a desert eagle? He did not know, it was probably the same reason that all isekai had an ill advised meeting with an ill tempered truck while attempting to save a child that didn’t need saving, they were also predominantly Nihongo, or some alternate world facsimile, school children.

The author put the gun in his mouth, making sure to aim it at his brain stem and not straight up, he only had one shot at it and wanted to get it right, pardon the pun. He pulled the trigger and the Knight was broken from his tirade, job well done, another author was corrected of the error of his ways.
In another place another knight was facing a very similar situation. The only differences being that the knight was female and that the author had chosen to hang himself. The author took his time, assured that the Knight who said ‘Knee’ wasn’t going anywhere. He secured the rope so that it would not snap. He made sure the chair he used was both stable enough that it wouldn’t fall before he was ready, and unstable enough that he would have no problems when he was. He took his time and when he was ready he released himself of his shame. Of course not his body, his body was quite shamed, and soiled, by the time his soul was freed and unrestrained.
“Did you find good tidings correcting errors and showing aspiring authors the errors in their ways? Pardon the pun, hahaha!” Said the male knight to the female knight.
“Oh yes, they seemed quite taken with my knowledge and help. So much so, that they left the rest up to me! And you? Did you correct that vile and horrendous injustice of grammatical errors?” Said the female knight to the male knight.
“Oh yes, it was quite enjoyable. They had made an almost encyclopedic display of the errors of ‘The’ showing what a pitfall the most common word in English can truly be. It was quite enlightening! Now then, shall we see how our young squire is doing?” Said the male knight to the female knight.

“Oh yes, that sounds delightful!” Said the female knight to the male knight.

As they came upon said squire they found him banging his head against a wall. They found this quite curious as the author he had been tasked to was quite response and even joyous at his quest to see all dastardly grammatical errors put to justice and corrected!
They did not wonder any longer as they came within hearing distance.
“Oye, you bloke! Is this right here the correct pronunciation or wha’? This right ere’ then?” The author said while pointing to his latest draft.
As the two knights heard the wonders that were happening within the male knight took off at a run. The squire puked blood. The female knight fainted. The Squire seeing his opportunity took off at a run, his older male compatriot grabbing and assisting his injured comrade. They both looked back at their fallen sister in arms. Knowing that her noble sacrifice would not be in vain! They would survive and remember the fallen.

And so the present day
“Oye love, is this eat’ or do Oy’ have ta make changes A-gain?” Said the author. The author was then soon jabbed in the ribs by an angsty editor for his use of the word ‘love’. Of course she didn’t fight it when he grabbed her hand afterword and showed her his draft by shoving it in her face. She just let out a long suffering sigh and moved on.
“No, even with the accent just… just no! Oh system and all that is holy and just, no!... This, this, and this, change. Rearrange this here. And blimey, I don’t even know what to do with this. What does this even mean? How do you even… How is it possible to write in chicken scratch when using print? Just HOW?!”

Paradigm Shift - New Beginnings
The known universe is facing an invasion from a foe that can rewrite the natural laws and that will destroy everyting we know. Derrick is ripped from his world and sent to the newest incursion point of an enemy he doesn't even know exists. He is the hail mary or kitchen sink of the universe and it will be up to him to adapt to his new world and become strong enough to survive and to save the universe. ********* Author's Note ********* This is my first published book so feedback would be appreciated. A couple of caveats. First this story is about the details, if you don't enjoy reading and finding the easter eggs or just like to speed read through the chapters you will probably not enjoy it. Second for those that do not like the Harem tag I just want to state that this is going to be a matriarchal society and the women will outnumber the men 5-1. That being the case and because of the culture that I imagine would arise from this I felt it fair to put that tag out there. However, the main character isn't going to be picking up women left and right. This is not a typical harem story. Image was googled so I have no rights to it

A Fool's Journey, or the Vagrancies of a Man in Exotic Lands
What does a sad bastard do when fate, literally, decides to throw him into a fantasy world? Solon just wanted to lead a normal life; work, share some pizza with friends, work, play some videogames or read something, work, maybe sleep?, work... Pretty much the usual, rinse and repeat. It was far from perfect, but life was nicely boring and comfy enough. Truth be told, he had hoped it would go on forever, or until he got married, or until the apocalypse finally decided to bring an end to everything. As far as he could tell, though, the former was about as likely as the latter; not very. And perhaps even somewhat related, if it ever came to it. Unfortunately, he saw himself involved in some sort of cosmic fart that screwed him over, brutally severing his life-plan. Or, maybe, would it be more suitable to say that Fate had other plans? Sure, he's yet to find out exactly what those plans might be, but, at the very least, they do seem to involve him being shoved into another world, fighting off a couple of horrendous creepers, and -almost- an accidental liaison with a baboon. Needless to say, the job doesn't come with dental care, and death seems more likely than retirement... Yep, when he got yoinked out of Earth, there were no princesses waiting for him, no sexy goddesses, and no severe Gandalf-wannabes! Heck, not even a bunch of demonic cultists! All he got for the trouble was a bunch of snarky windows and the honest desire to punch whatever bastard happens to be behind the smug System. Well, that, and a few forced trips to the so-called Tower of Ascension. Not exactly what he would have expected but, on the plus side, he does get to do some magic. Though, not quite the wand-waving kind. Whatever. One thing’s patently clear, though, he’s certainly not the chosen one, nor the summoned hero, nor the Savior. If anything, he himself might be in need of some saving... Just what kind of fool does the System take him for? Please do consider the tags. Also, 'Strong Lead' here means weak to strong, over a decent amount of time, not op from the very beginning. Things to expect: decent grammar, cheeky goats. Things not to expect: Harems, a decent sense of fashion.

Still life (or virtual life) throws you curve balls and you never know what will happen.
