[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'
**********
Core Level 1 Color: Pink HP: 100/100 MP: 30/80 Skills: Arise

**************
'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.

Four story anthology
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] [participant in #NaNoWriMo] Preface: This fiction will contain four different stories set up as a challenge for myself and to get better at writing. The challenge for royal road writathon is a 55.555 word goal while the nanowrimo challenge is 50.000 words. Reader suggestions is turned on, feel free to point out errors I missed and I'll fix them up! Chasing sun, napping softly: Cultivation/Xianxia genre. Some parts will poke at the ridiculousness of the Xianxia gerne. We follow the life of a magical fox monster, who doesn't like how the cultivation world works. Said beast seems to have more knowledge than is usual for normal magical beasts. In it's infinite wisdom it decided to search for the main character of the cultivation world to have a cozy and safe place beside him. Our fox will act as a "wise beast" to coast along on the main characters rise to greatness, all for peace, happiness and that amazing napping spot in the sun. The challenges for myself with this story: Writing in first person. Comedic effect between talking vaguely and sounding wise. The cost of heroism: A story more centered around fights and mental health of hired mercenaries/heroes. The world is infected with an eldritch corruption. Humans are trying their best to explore and clear out wilderness and the dungeons hiding in them to establish new cities. Lords seek for hired hands to do the professional work. Thanks to the setting, the story will show how awful pasts are the norm and how pragmatic people became thanks to that. People exchange their sanity for riches, fame and gods acceptance. Interpersonal relationships change drastically and quickly. The challenges for myself with this story: Writing grim scenes/imparting a feeling of how grim the world is. Writing fight scenes. Showing different mental states. Describing their influence on people during fights, walks or even after successful or failed campaigns. Who will be the next powerhouse? : A story about a gaming show, it's host Staan and the different participants. Stereotype characters, stereotype backstories, silly challenges and quizzes. The winner of those challenges gets powerups for their power system. Be it magic, ki, psychic power or anything else imaginable and unimaginable to reach the power of gods. The challenges for myself with this story: A softer tone for storytelling. Making the reader smile and enjoy themselves. A different try at slice of life story. I was left behind on earth as my family conquered another world and enjoys riches, but that's okey because I got a cheat too! : Stereotypical Isekai story parody twisted into an Urban Fantasy story. The challenges for myself with this story: Writing over the top and overdramatic scenarios/scenes Writing in first person. Walking into stereotypical scenarios and making them more dramatic/giving them a twist. Different type of humor.

God's System
Hey guys Perdere666 here! m(-_-)m Anyway, this is a new story from me. This idea came about when I was reading IRAS, Omni-Genius, hacker, Urban Legend and other similar genre. And I thought, wow, I like to write something like that and so here it is... However, since this is not the main story, I won't be able to update it as fast as Fantasial Apocalypse. In any case, this was just one of my wish-fulfillment kind of story so please don't be so strict about it~ (^-^)V - This is just for fun! I'm not good at writing synopsis but let's see: Daniel Flores died and was almost virtually revived by his lover/fiancee who turned out to be an evil mad scientist from a huge terrorist group. During his revival her lover/fiancee added some kind of experiment to his brain in order for his revival to be succesful. However, this was suddenly interrupted by a peace keeping force. And so, his revival failed. He died. However, suddenly he was transmigrated to another him from a parallel world. And that's where the story begins~ I hope you will like it! V(>.
