《The Great Hero》Chapter 3: The Great Hero
Advertisement
The pain and torment of being imprisoned in a state of absolute nothingness only having memories of past woes to look to as the only beacon in the infernal void would drive any good man insane. Though I had come to my senses, with nothing to do, I pondered. My trance of being in an existential crisis had long passed. A question still remained in my head based upon my new found beliefs.
How?
How do I undermine this constant cycle of defeat and rebuilding?
How do I pull apart this predestined end?
How do I win?
Win?
It’s not a matter of winning just to defy the outcome of defeat. Victory is not the only means to obtain my end. I must not let my anger and resentment of the humans who did all of this take control of me or it will only perpetuate the cycle.
When suddenly; a monotone, seemingly artificial, voice resounded in my head. It was a voice I was all too familiar with. The voice of [The System]. [The System] is an entity and/or phenomena that not even the greatest demon sages can explain. There is one trait that is well known about [The System], absolute neutrality, and that is why I don’t lament [The System] itself for pushing forward the tyrannical cycle of death and murder.

[SYSTEM MESSAGE: Point of incursion found. establishing connection.]
Wait what?
A resounding headache struck my entire being as if I was fighting for my very being itself.
It hurts.
It’s painful.
I can feel my conscience being pulled into the ether as if my existence is no longer necessary.
However I MUST NOT FALL HERE.
I CAN’T. Not until I have rectified this loop of never ending sorrow.
The pain slowly subsides.
[SYSTEM MESSAGE: original connection overwritten. Connection established]
My conscience fades into the ether.
When I come to, I feel strange. My eyes adjust to the light.
Wait!
Eyes!
Where am I?
A regal voice resounds throughout the room.
“Oh great hero; please, I implore you, help us in our time of greatest need!”

Soul of the Warrior
In a world where Classes, Stats, and Levels are the everyday norm, Reivyn has a secret. He was unusually aware of his surroundings from an incredibly early age, and Skills and Stats were acquired easily. He was just the son of an ordinary village family, and nothing appeared out of the ordinary on the surface. But below the surface, dreams of another life help shape his mentality and growth. Why does he have some remembrance of a past life, and what is his purpose in this new one? "Soul of the Warrior" is what I call a Semi-Isekai LitRPG. I say "semi," because Reivyn's past life is remembered like a dream, and very incomplete. It is still Isekai, though, as he remembers enough that it directly shapes his personality and his sense of self. The System that governs the world of "Soul of the Warrior" is a combination of modified versions from Selkie's "Beneath the Dragoneye Moons" and Kosnik4's "Magic Smithing." I have changed enough of these Systems and combined them in a way that is unique that I'm mostly sure it's fine, but I still have requested permission to use these ideas. They have both graciously granted me permission. Winner of the April Writathon Challenge. Release Schedule is Mon, Wed, Fri on Royal Road.

The Spear and The Cross
The World of Marrh has been embroiled in a decades-long struggle between the eventually divided Zurul Horde and the ever-decaying Juman Empire. A war whose causes for carnage have long been forgotten. A half-orc and a human will eventually meet paths, their fates intertwined to save their dying world from their peoples' conflict and from an outsider's interference... Will they succeed, or will they succumb to failure? Only the Divine will truly know. NOTE: I upload chapters (about +2,500 words) on an irregular basis, so don't expect much from me. I write for fun only, and this book is an amateurish attempt at showcasing my world on The Spear and The Cross. If you still want to stick around, then go ahead. Maybe it'll be a fun ride. And also, a big thanks to my artist friend, Milkuii, for the wonderful cover art.
