"So evolution is complete."
Aariv look around and saw that the sun was up, he then shook his head. "Those were my memories." He mutter. "Why did I remember more of my memories? Is this because of my evolution or is it something else?" He turns his head up. "I'll find out when I evolve again." He then turns his head to its proper position. "I should check my status. Status."

"So evolving put you back at Lv. 1" Aariv muses. "[Mana] is unlocked? Is this because hypno owls require mana to hypnosis?" He then decides to check his skills.

"So skills like [Stealth] and [Hypnosis] require [SP] and [Mana], while passive skills don't," Aariv said, he then narrows his eyes. "But what does it mean by manifesting will? I can't test this since it cost 200 [Mana], but I can test hypnosis but not before assigning my stat points." Aariv put 14 into [Wisdom], 4 in [Endurance], 2 in [Strength], and the rest in [Agility].

"Nothing had changed with the description but maybe the time for it to activate is shorter," Aariv said. To test this he captures another horned rabbit and uses [Hypnosis] on it taking less time for the rabbit to be hypnotized, taking a minute. "So it's true." Aariv grins and flew to search for more test subjects.

However, he found that the time for the mice to be hypnotize was reset to two minutes. "How annoying," Aariv mutters as he observes the subject. "So it seems I have to level it up again."

An Edge With No Blade
There are two ways to gain superpowers. By drinking one of eight vials filled with powerstuff, or having a really bad day. Lucy wants friends, and is prepared to make bad decisions to get them. In Streamrock City the supervillains outnumber the heroes by three to one, and their feeder gangs have widely impacted life there. The Bad Dogs dominate, and freely run underground fighting rings. The Junkrats spread their supply far and wide. Agni’s Aatma eye their neighbors patiently, preparing to take more territory. The remnants of the Hellrider Angels refuse to fade into obscurity. And the Courtesans have a history in the slave trade. The Sentinels and Sentries on the hero’s side are understaffed. Worse, their strongest heroes are underaged. And somewhere, an entity writhes, watching and waiting. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
8 633The Magic Swordsman
Clearing the most difficult mode of an RPG game called ?The Invasion Of The Demon King?, Hiro Miyagawa unlocked a new difficulty, the ?Hardcore Mode?. Pressing the "Yes" Button, a sudden white light flashed on the screen of the TV, forcing him to close his eyes. Due to the lack of sleep from playing the game three days in a row, Hiro fell asleep and reincarnated into Theo Regnard the moment he woke up. As the support character of the game ?The Invasion Of The Demon King?, Theo Regnard was destined to die at the beginning of the game. Refusing this kind of fate happening to him, he resolved himself to become stronger and walk into an unknown road instead of choosing the supposed "Good Ending". This is the story of a man who was cursed by the demon god, a story of a fallen prince who has chosen the path filled with blood and revenge, a story of a support character who became the main character, a story of the man called Theo Regnard. Author Note This is a slow-paced story and the first book that I'm writing. I hope that those who are interested in that book can find the enjoyment they were looking for.

8 122Crossroads
On the continent of Khaan, a peculiar boy escapes from his hidden village to find a land to call home. Suppressed ambitions are unveiled as a head-strong princess defies the emperor. New kingdoms expand as the old decay. This is a story of those who lived in the times of change. Dear Reader, Thank you for stopping by! This is my first attempt at writing something of more substantial length and would be incredibly grateful to receive feedback and advice. The plan is to post at least a chapter a week and more if I find time. Also, in order to not disappoint any expectations; the story plays in a fictional world reminiscent of the real world 17th to 19th century with some supernatural elements, but no obvious magic or game-like system.
8 71Cornerman (Naruto)
A melting icecap, a bubbling spring or the soft autumn rain; small trickling streams that, over many years, grow into mighty rivers. Within every man lies the call to power - it is as much a part of him as his very own blood. The foolish drink from that vital liquid, but the wise know that strength is not worth seeking. Instead, they desire that which lies beyond it. They follow the mighty river to its source. Eyes wide, they spot the glistening icecap. Ears open, they listen for the bubbling spring. Nose twitching, they smell the scent of the autumn rain. They find those small, trickling streams. They are led to the source from which strength flows. It is that which beats within the bosom of every man: a blood-red heart.
