Year 31 of the Human Calendar - Southwest district of the Holy Land of Xue - Linjian house
(Linjian POV)
.........
......
...
“....p“ ???
...?
“Wake up“ ?????
...voi...ces...
“Wake up...Daddy!“ ???
!!!
[FORCED DESTRUCTION OF THE HEAVENLY PHOENIX CITY, MIND EXPERIENCE OBTAINED]
[AWAKENED AFTER TWENTY YEARS, MIND EXPERIENCE OBTAINED]
“--e!“ Linjian
I open my eyelids and try to speak, but the words don't come out.
[You finally wake up from your nap] Maria
(Maria, were those voices...?)
[Voices?]
(...You didn't hear them?)
[I only felt the warning of the Life Detection, what did you hear?]
Only the alert, huh.
(Maybe it was just a dream, what is more important now is...)
If the warning is activated, that means the Holy Land of Xue is in danger.
(Maria, status report)
[All your body except your face is burned]
I can feel the pain, but it is a weird one. I don't feel the need to move my body to calm it.
[Your left leg is gone for good]
...Is that so.
[Your body is atrophied after 20 years of unconsciousness]
Twenty years...
[And it seems that the kingdom is under the attack of a jade rank city lord]
!!!
(I need to go help!)
I try to get up but my body does not respond.
[All your muscles are gone, your body doesn't have enough strength to even move]
If my Brawn does not work then.
(Earth Manipulation!)
With the bed connecting me to the ground, I order the soil to climb to my level.
*Brrrr*
Both my bed and I, we became a brown cocoon...
[20 MP CONSUMED]
And from within, I rise again.
*Stomp*
I stand up for the first time in twenty years.
(Earth Knight)
[You are crazy]
I hear some happiness in her words.

(Ah)
I lost my balance and almost fell to the ground.
[...Linjian you are in no condition to fight, leave this to...]
Being away in the moment someone needs me?
Being away in the moment someone dies?
Being away in the moment a parent loses their child?
“NO!“
(I will not stand here doing nothing, this is not what I want, this is not what Xue wants!)
[Xue?]
(Animal Whisperer!)
(Body, stand up!)
It's not enough, my mind is still shaking!
[Are you trying to use Animal Whisperer on yourself?]
(More, I need more!)
Humans are biologically animals and I am a human being. Therefore... come on, Animal Whisperer!
(Pure Mana...)
“AnImAl WhiSpeRer“
I use my shaking voice to increase the effectiveness of the skill.
(Give me the strength to protect everyone!)
[300 MP CONSUMED]
A new surge of power comes to me.
*Chirrrhhh*
I can feel something I never felt before inside me.
[Electricity]
(What?)
[Some kind of Mana-electricity now circulates through the insides of your body]
(Inside of me?)
[It seems that you discovered a new use to the Animal Whisperer]
There is no time to lose, I went through the front door and started running towards the west wall.
[Ah, and before I forget]
(?)
[Good morning Linjian]
Inside my helmet, I smile.
(Good morning Maria)
......
...
“My NamE Is LinjIan Campbell and I am the The Anointed King... of the Holy Land of Xue!“
[Don't force your voice, let it recover]
“King?“ Mushu Tung
[His pride is going to take a time to process that he doesn't know that word]
I put Hikari back in the ground and the gap in my helmet closes.
“Grandpa, I knew that...“ Hikari
I talk to them using the Animal Whisperer.

(We will talk later, now go!)
They return to the inside of the walls as I approach the jade rank cultivator.
...
I am completely at a disadvantage.
The burns still hurt.
Without a working body, my speed is only at its 90%.
My body will fall immobile the moment my MP runs out.
My stamina will only support three minutes of the Hero of Light.
But, even so, Sleeping time is over.
Ziyun, your husband will defeat this half immortal. No matter what.
[Time for some morning exercises]

Meek
After failing as an apprentice cooper and a town guard, Eli finds his place at the Rockbridge archives. Sure, he's the oldest 'junior scribe,' but he likes the job. And he's good at it, too. Then he completes an apparently-insignificant project, and the brutal reaction shocks him--with consequences that eventually shake the world. Eli gains powers. Rare and inhuman abilities. He progresses slowly, steadily, and not without setbacks. He changes, too. Is he a hero, a villain, a human, a monster? Depends who you ask. Meek is an epic fantasy with elements of progression. The basic magic is simple: five Paths, each with a different powerset. However, complexity arises from combinations, and the protagonist wields a magic all his own. Meek is set in the Valley, the only (as far as anyone knows) human empire that survived a Final Battle against a terrible foe. The Valley is warded against infiltration, but the enemy learned how to warp human souls, to foment discord within. However, another soul is also ... changed. Perhaps even 'warped.' And that soul is starting on a long (long, long) path that might, one day, prove that the Final Battle wasn't so final after all.

Silver Wings
Luna doesn't remember much about herself. The faces of her family and friends, even her own name, she can't recall anymore. All this happened after she came to the world of Arkon. But wait, no matter how I look at it, isn't this too much like an RPG?! *Am influenced by many light novels, and some stuff I read on this site... I especially stole a bit of stuff from "So What if it's an RPG?!" since I read that the most recently. Translations can be found on scrya's site. Akatsuki no Yona also big influence =w= *Cover art is not mine, credit goes to... idk where credit goes to cuz I found it off google after searching Ashe from LoL fanart :P

Dip$h!+s in Space
An eccentric comedy novel (that thinks it's a TV show) about space, and the Dipsh!+s that end up stranded in it. This hyper-self-aware comedy of stupid proportions, centers around Captain William T Lawg (no relation) and his adventures as a guy who managed to afford a refitted soft-top ice-cream truck, in space. Explore the universe with his trusty crew of valiant randos. Marley, the tech-bro, stoner spacebunny, who just wants to get away from his home world and the bullies it harbors. Duffy, the plump and sassy female mechanic, who has had every job in existence totaling far more years than possible. Roy, the frigging fabulous, flamboyant android, and former spy…or possibly current spy. (dun dun, daaaa!) And lastly, but certainly leastly, that other chick the captain keeps trying to bang. Ride with the crew of the notorious Tast-E-Chill, to a world of wonder that a lot of other space travelers have already been before, but probably not Lawg, so it's still exciting. This satirical joke on itself and every sci-fi trope ever to exist, will be sure to either thrill you or disappoint you, because COMEDY…IS…SUBJECTIVE! With a crew of 3-10 and an IQ of also probably 3-10, The captain putters along to uncharted lands, where history, loot, drama, innuendos of the sexual verity, and various Technicolor hoes shall surely be waiting, usually with some form of trap. Each season brings new and interesting crewmen, like: Menace: the adorable genderless frog-child-thing with the heart of gold and the dialogue vocabulary of a slightly trained parrot. Greg: the 8 foot tall, ancient, thermonuclear, semi-retired alien overlord who just wants to prove he still has a purpose…and also to rule the galaxy. Izzy: a 3rd generation, age-reversed reboot, accidental clone of her own mother/sister/older self, who happens to be Greg's daughter-in-law…and much, much more. Prepare yourself for shallow adventure, moderately-to high offensive dialogue, and overwhelmingly childish scenarios. Tag along as the crew battles, fierce enemies, lack of food and survival tape, and occasionally their own incompetence. Teen Romance, current politics, subtlety, dignity, this sucker has none of those, and it darn well knows it. Raise the sails and grab the rails as a bunch of dipsh!+s find themselves...IN SPACE. (Roll dramatic tapering credits, to royalty free trumpet music)
