《World tag#001》Chapter004
Advertisement
I have to admit that even with all my fears, who periodically say "Hello did you call?", I may be eager to consider this a game to "play". But first and foremost to quench most of my doubts I'm doing my old gym cardio routine, to think that to follow the fad of the moment I ended going almost five years to a gym it's ridiculous I know, but the adrenaline keep me from quitting and I must confess I felt really great when the muscle pain didn't assault me.
When I was absorbed in the past, strange I's all so vivid I remember even my old schedule, I ended my tenth set of exercises... without pauses...
Ok this confirm that surely it's not my old body or even human I suppose. Naturally a "normal" human would have ended sprained on the floor after the third set, but to think apart from not sweating even my breath is stable it's really disturbing. This stunt also confirm that the lacking of a stamina value on the chart before maybe is not a lapse of this "system".
Next on the agenda is to see how the stats, or the lack of them, influence me. I already suspect that with no hunger and thirst value maybe I don't have to eat and drink, or sleep even, but when that time will come to see if it's true I think I will really believe I'm dead.
I also reserve judgment on the fact that maybe all this things are true only in this room, starting tutorial area?, but the fact that the voice spoke of a system fired me up to found loopholes. Again I know cheap but to take words from my younger colleague "That's how I roll".
Looking again in the mirror, and really feeling confused on how to feel about it, I concentrate and start thinking all the words that maybe can make the screen reappear... After having gone through all the standard, and even the more obscure, word to open the character in-game, i resign myself and start talking loud.

Yes! So menu is the code... Wait why the hp, presuming it's health point, have a new grey value? I've an suspicion, if this system is really like this than... Better start the next "experiment" than, starting from removing all the sheets from the bed and after the mattress, I expose the metallic-looking frame of the bed. It's the kind with thin metal strips for support, they should be attached but another strange thing they are welded. Well, after thinking that maybe it's really a bad idea, I start kicking a strip loose.
What I didn't expect was that, after the fourth kick, the all frame collapsed on itself...
- Ok now I think that someone is going to get angry for this... @#£$ too late anyway let's go.
Searching in the remain of the bed I start to catalogue the various pieces, various lengths of cylindrical metal tubing, some square pieces and the strips I was aiming for from the beginning.
To be sincere I've never worked seriously with metal, I've always wanted to and watched lots of video of melting, forging, welding ecc., but I never really had the time to do something serious. Now it's time to start I believe, while going delusional over the future, I start using one of the square piece to scrape a bevel on the edge of a strip. Again after the fourth repetition the edge become abruptly sharp...
Is there a meaning for four repetition? Or for the suddenly change if that matter? The MP stat maybe it's a hint of magic so the physics of "here", of this system, must be different somehow, but it's still really surprising and disturbing to see thing behave in way all people thing is impossible.
Anyway I've obtained the sharp metal piece I was searching for so it's time to start, taking a deep breath I take the blade firmly in hand and start. Advertisement Previous

Deviation
There is a place in the far off reaches of space. It is a lonely place in the barest portion at the edge of the universe. There are no stars or other planets for light-years. A region few have ever wanted to visit and fewer still actually have. If you were to visit you'd find and small rip in space-time leading to the most bizarre and out of place thing you have ever seen. A solar system consisting of five planets, all with life, all stuck in conflict, and all absolutely bursting with energy. For some it seems like a paradise. A land of sword and sorcery? Why would anyone pass that up? That was the thought process of the freshly dead boy. This boy, like many before him and many after him, was trying to find the bright side. Things had finally been going right for him, good grades, new friends, and best of all a girlfriend when the entire world ended. No huff, no puff, just poof the end. At least being reborn into this world would be fun. That definitely sounded like a bright side to most. Fracture, one of the five worlds in question, was massive and full of magic. It looked sounded and felt like it would be just another game, it even had prompts and levels. Piece of cake. Well that might be the case if Fracture was meant to be a paradise. The hottest fires forge the strongest swords. This fire has the habit of melting away oneself. A pixie clan searching for a new home, a boy who just lost his, a reality bending forest, and a bug that doesn't belong. All with an intense desire for power. Who will make it through the fire intact, and will they choose to be a hero, or will they join the long history of villains and monsters?

8 180Quest of the Seal Bearers - Book 1: The Warriors Return
On the distant world of Mendala, a rash of mysterious attacks have left many towns destroyed, and there are rumors of an army of monsters. Fantasma, leader of the global government, and his colleagues are determined to find cause of these attacks. but the search for answers points them to an ancient relic, The Book of War, a cursed artifact that can create indestructible creatures loyal to its master. It’s been over twelve thousand years since the Book of War was last opened. It was believed to be destroyed during the Great War by the Twelve Warriors and Daughter of the Sun at the cost of their lives. Now, it seems the book has resurfaced, and its new master is seeking to forever tip the balance of power. The stage is being set for another Great War but who can stop the Book of War once and for all? Meanwhile on Earth, the teen members of Greengale’s Action and Adventure Club are preparing for their yearly trip when they suddenly stumble upon a secret their parents have been keeping for years. Now their world is being turned upside down as they struggle to understand the legacy that ties their fate to Mendala and the Book of War. Is their destiny set in stone, or will they forge a different path? No matter what, their choices will bring forth a new era for Mendala. ------------------------------ If you love vast fantasy worlds, rich, fleshed-out characters, and a adventure where your'e constantly discovering new things along the way, then this is definitely a story you'll enjoy. This is a slow-burn high fantasy / adventure with many characters and intersecting plotlines. It’s a quest so lots of adventuring, exploring, and character moments, but not a ton of fighting/action (though there are definitely some great fight scenes as payoff to the buildup). Because it’s a fantasy world with lots of people and new concepts, I try to make it easy so that you don’t have to memorize anything. The narrative will constantly remind you of important people/places/concepts as you keep moving forward. Some things won’t be fully explained right at the beginning to avoid information overload. My goal is that the reader will learn things organically as the story progresses. I use two mechanisms to help with the intersecting plotlines. - Each chapter is named for the (main) plotline it’s following and which part. - At the beginning of the chapter, and anytime there is a scene shift, the location is listed. Also, though this is definitely a portal-fantasy (isekai) it’s different from the standard isekai, especially since the world transfer doesn’t happen immediately. It’s not Lit-RPG but characters gain powers and grow over time. Also, it’s a group of teens that transfer, not just one central character. All of the teens are distinct characters, with their own character-arcs, relationships, powers, growth etc. Hopefully you’ll find this interesting as you’ll see the world and story from multiple perspectives. The story is always in 3rd Person (Omniscient) POV so that it’s not jarring as perspectives shift.

Ever heard the story of the 3 musketeers, you know~ the one with the duel and the cardinal's guards. Known for "All for one and one for all"... Although it's irrelevant to this world, those three were basically saints in my old world and~"Oi Rallo"*sighs* "what is it?..""The whole "3 musketeers" thing... could we just drop the act already?""..but the whole story I pla-""I agree~ just get to the point..""...""I hate democracy..."This is a story of kingdom-building, war, and op main characters. This is my first story so expect nothing of worth.I also have no idea how long each chapter will be...I also suck at writing synopses..~
