The Cycle of Resentment
Chapter 0 - Prologue
In the distant past, the universe was ruled by divine beasts. Existences as vast as galaxies each owning their independent realms, however at the apex of the universe stood four sovereign beasts – supreme rulers. The Azure Dragon, Vermillion Bird, White Tiger, and the Black Tortoise. They were better known as the “Four celestial guardians”.
These beasts were not just limited to one or two realms - each one of them reigned in a vast region of the universe, inhibiting the growth of other divine beasts to avoid any potential threats in the future.
However, their downfall was imminent when the ancient Qilin had awoken from his extended slumber.
The "Four celestial guardians” and the Qilin had entered a vigorous war which caused the complete and utter destruction of the entire universe – after several millennia of intense battle the Qilin just barely emerged victorious.
Before their death, the Four celestial guardians had cursed the ancient Qilin and pledged that they would seek him out to the ends of the world in their next life.
The legendary Qilin had feasted on the physical bodies of the Four celestial guardians in an attempt to gain their powers and merge them with his soul, however even if it had succeeded the Qilin's efforts were naught as he wouldn't be able to escape death due to the severity of his injuries.
So, as the only form of life left in the universe, the Qilin had offered his remaining life force to manipulate the universe and restore the realms that were once destroyed.
In addition to this, he cursed the Four celestial guardians, making it so he would be reborn at the same time as them.
The Qilin was not someone who would dwell on past grievances however the Four celestial guardians were beings that feared the strong and bullied the weak, so he could not leave things as they were.
Their resentment towards each other would allow them to one-day reincarnate until the enmity they had against each had rectified.
This dreadful tale was spread around all corners of the Earth and became known as ‘The Cycle of Resentment’.

Warden of Success - A LitRPG
In the future of Earth humans are no longer the dominant species. Monsters, vampires, elves and all manners of otherworldly threats now threaten the planet and its people. And for one such as Camille, there was nothing she could do. A failed martial artist, Camille swallowed her pride and dreams, all the while sinking into the world of video games. Until she died. Reawakening with newfound power in her very own bed, there's no doubting that she's an oddity. And as the only individual in the world with the body of a video game character, she's ecstatic. No longer will she just be content with playing games in her dark room, taking over fantasy worlds as a great heroine. Rather, she'll do something better. And that'll be to take over the real one instead. Whether it be mages, demons or other supernatural entities that stand in her way, it doesn't matter. Camille may be a level one at first, but dammit if she wasn't going to try to reach one hundred. This is not a crunchy LitRPG and gradually becomes more of a character driven story that just happens to have a main character with LitRPG abilities. There will be a variety of powers/abilities that are explored later in the setting involving magic systems and other technological advancements. The first 10 chapters were written with satirical undertones, but begin to develop more into its own entity after that.

The Core And The Wardens of Eternity
What is the Core, they asked me... It's the light that pushes the darkness away, a bastion of justice, a safe keeper of life. It grooms love and tolerance, embraces science, fights ignorance, sentences it to die a slow and tragic death. The Core... it's something that can't be destroyed for destroying it is to terminate the time and space itself. When the stuck-in-a-dark-age world of Zanria goes offline, the Core sends one of its experienced agents to find out what is going on and to try to reestablish a mysteriously severed connection. However, all his training and experience might come way short as the world sinks in war and chaos with different races and clans fighting for the Star of Bardan, the ward rumored to possess enough supernatural power to create and destroy entire worlds. *** I just changed the name of the series, from 'the Nexus' to 'the Core'. Somehow it just sounds more right to me. This is the first story, and it has a medieval fantasy setting. But, eventually, this is going to turn into Isekai series with elements of LitRPG. So, my future books might include worlds with advanced technologies that might be more in SciFi, including Steampunk, genre. The first book might start slow, but after a few chapters, it should all be properly set up, and by then you should get the feel of how it will all flow. Also, I plan to introduce different story threats that should spread out and criss-cross in the future. Hopefully, I will not complicate it too much, and that it will all read good. I am planning to continue to add chapters to the main storyline here, but I'm also starting a new story threat in the Core series called The Recordings of Raan. There is also a side story The Memoires of Eisen that's exclusive on Patreon for those who would like to support me.
