[Element Unlocked: Psychic Energy]
[Your MP had decreased by 50]
The power surging out of Cyrus spread towards the walls and floor of the dark cobblestone hallway. The room then started to shake violently, as a result, the cobblestone walls collapsed opening up to a new room. Becoming a space much bigger than the hallway they were in before.
The first floor now consisted of small pink orbs floating among the room while the walls were made up of black and pink crystals. Oddly in the walls, there were medium-sized holes unclear to what purpose they serve.
5 huge black pillars in the room emerged out of the ground surrounding a large square in the center assumed to be an arena. Two pillars were on the left and right of the square while one is in the back.
Once again, Cyrus repeated the 8 words:
'Arise
And Leave No-one Alive
My Psychic Allies'
Suddenly, the pink energy from Cyrus's outburst started to form 5 human-shaped monsters. The mobs are a mix of a cyclops and a human. They're 8 feet, skin black as ink, and very lean. The most notable features were their one unopened eye in the middle of their face and the different combinations of horns on each separate monster. There are 3 males and 2 females.
Cyrus' eyes closed as soon as the monsters finished forming which made the pink energy finally subside. The monsters left to their positions on the pillars.
[Congratulations! You have unlocked your first element!]
**************

***************
Due to the large consumption of mp in a single moment, It took a couple of minutes for him to respond and open his eyes. 'That drained a lot out of me, but I managed to unlock one of my elements and get an achievement’
{Congratulations on unlocking your first element and achievement. Also, That's normal, your core is only level 1 at the moment. When you summoned your monsters your energy was drained. Say Open Core status to check it}
'What?... How many statuses are there?'
{Only 4. If you look back in your self status, it says core status at the bottom}
'Nah that's okay, I believe you'
{There are also more details on your floors, dungeon, and elements. Just say open and then what information you want to see. For example, “Open Experience” or “Open dungeon status”}
'Got it, that helps. Open Core status'
**********

**************
'Should I use a MP potion?'
{I wouldn't advise that because mp and hp potions are very rare, so use them wisely. Also, every 2 minute your mp rises by 5, so you shouldn't have to worry about that}
'Alright...' He closes the screen while his core glows a from excitement, “Now, the part I’ve been waiting for... Where are my monsters?”
{Don't you want to see your element first?}
'I can do that later back in the core room. Right now I’m on the first floor, so I might as well see them first'
{I don’t understand what you’ll get from doing that, but alright}
Cyrus's levitation device starts moving towards the arena where the black pillars are. To the average eye, the monsters can't be seen due to the very dim lighting, but Cyrus sees them clearly. Each monster is on a separate pillar posing in different positions.

As soon as he reached the center of the arena, all 5 monsters appeared surrounding him. They're extremely tall, so they're all looking down on him. However, he wasn't intimidated in the slightest, hence why he's calm.
Cyrus has always been a lone wolf. Don't get him wrong, he's not trying to bond with anyone, he just respects strong people. Furthermore, he gets a nice aura from all 5 monsters. He starts to project his thoughts, "Hello Monsters! I am the owner and core of this dungeon, you may call me what you wish! You have been summoned to defend our home for the 7 years we'll be here. If there's anything that you want feel free to ask as long as it's in my power."
{Why are you talking to the monsters?}
'For fun. I wanted to look like an important figure' He smiles with his eyes.
{The monsters are only programmed to defends not talk. You shouldn't waste your time}
'Yeah, yeah I hear you ' Cyrus was about to leave until all 5 monsters suddenly bowed towards him.
The no horned monster was silent when he bowed.
The monster with 2 horns facing up bowed yelling, "Thanks Boss!" grinning.
The monster with 1 horn facing up and the other facing down bowed calmly, "Yes, my lord"
The female monster with 1 horn bowed firmly and shouted, "Yes sir!"
The other female monster with a horned crown lightly bowed and smiled, "As you wish, my king"
Cyrus was taken aback because he thought they would just nod and retreat to their positions. Pics as well is at a loss for words because she's never seen that happen before. She may be a computer system, but she can be surprised too.
"Um... You may go back to your positions"
All of the monsters disappeared in an instant and when onto their separate pillars.
{You're the first person to ever talk to the monsters and get them to respond}
'Really? They don't usually talk?' Cyrus is a bit surprised, but at the same time, he doesn't care so he shrugs it off. 'Let's go back to the core room and look at my element'
{Teleporting now}
They arrive back in the pink room that continues to make Cyrus's eyes bleed. He wasn’t expecting anything to change, but he hoped he got accustomed to it by now. 'I don't think I’ll ever get used to this room. Anyways, Open Element 1'
************
Element 1: Psychic Energy Level 1 Skills: (Locked) (Requirements: Must unlock fake body)
*************
Cyrus groans 'I can't use my skills until I unlock my fake body skill? How do I unlock it?'
{You need to get your core to level 2. That's when it will be strong to split your soul into two.}
'Then what's the point of my element being unlocked?'
{So your monsters can use its power and your official floor could open}
'Oh, that’s right… then how will I level up my core?'
{You need to start killing intruders and get the experience up. 75% of a kill goes to the dungeon and the rest goes to your core. Your core starts dependent on your dungeon and then you can level up it yourself once it gets to level 2. Would you like me to open the dungeon?}
'Yeah, let’s get grinding' he shines brightly.

Legends of The Wesh: Lochley
The Universe is held together by something. It is an undisputable truth but nobody knows what that something is. People claim that it is connected by The Path of Legends, where Gods traversed trying to find the meaning of their own existence. Others claim that the universe is a Tree, connecting worlds with its extending branches and giving life-bearing fruits to its inhabitants. Several even claimed that the Universe is just a colony of ants, that this universe and the worlds in it are just as insignificant as insects. In one of the Worlds in it, the arrival of someone signaled great changes. Gods will die, Trees will Rot, Insects will burn. Those at the top had fallen and they will upend the worlds trying to claim what was theirs. Those at the bottom have had enough of scraps and they yearned to devour the fruits of the worlds. Those that were innocent and caught in between had no choice but to persist, lest they get erased by the surging tides. Nobody knows where will they end, but everybody knew where they started. They will not be judged, they will not be rebuked, they will not be curbed, they will not be vanquished. The universe is their canvas and it’s time — time to paint their truths upon it. Azrael was born as a prince in the warring world of Ost. Inheriting the title but not its privileges and oppressed by his siblings in every step of his life, he had no choice but to be subservient to their whims until circumstances spiraled him to the abyss, to a new world, and to more agreeable companions. But is he truly free from the past or will it continue to hound him to his new life? Elira had one wish… to be known more than as an offspring of the Great Phasol Family. Talented, hardworking, and stubborn, she struggled to break free from the influence of her family. Everything had been going well in her life but is she strong enough to resist the upheaval and truths of the world? William grew up in an orphanage with nothing to his name. Regaled by various tales of fantasy and greatness by his caretakers, he reached adulthood with the goal of having a legend of his own. Will he make his mark on the world or be forgotten like an ant; crushed by the boot of an unsuspecting traveler. The world of Lochley has been at peace for centuries and its undercurrents are growing restless from waiting… waiting for that spark of opportunity to ignite and swallow the world whole. Some will cause it, some will resist it, and some be drowned by it. Which one will you be?

Stories Of Indlu
“… to grow, for opportunity, for adventure, to be free. Join the colony ship Nao Vittoria. Be the first to live amongst the stars.” It was obvious from the literature that the NextStar corporation wanted the young, the adventurous and the brilliant. So why were the super rich fighting over seats? Why were AI’s trying to stow away? Did this signify a premature end to human/AI civilisation? Why had some questions directed to NextStar been aggressively sidelined? Why did the colonist inflight entertainment trial produce fatalities? In fact, why colonists at all? Those and many other questions, however, boiled down to a single central question. Why was the world’s most advanced AI dumped with a hundred year babysitting job for 50 million people speeding towards an uninhabitable planet? It made such little sense. The only sure way to get answers, catch a ride on the Nao Vittoria and play the inflight entertainment game, Pax Domini. I joined, and this is my story. Well, I feature. OK, I’m more of a spectator. Actually, I’m completely irrelevant I was just there. I’m only the storyteller. But what a story to tell. --------- Hi All, Content will be published weekly usually Saturday and typical posts will be 25oo to 4ooo words per post. Though for some reason the Royal Road word count does not include the content of tables so some posts may not appear to meet this criteria. Currently I have written sufficient unedited content to keep this schedule for the next 12 months (half way through the first story arc). My current productivity would indicate that I can maintain this schedule for well into the second story arch. This also allows for the additional content that will be posed exclusively on Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/StoriesOfIndlu). This additional content follows minor characters, peripheral events, maps and other content that does not take away from the main story. I would love to accelerate the post schedule but to meet this I need the assistance of more beta readers than I currently have. So please let me know if you are interested. - Andy ©2022 Andy Leauter.
