《Round Two》Chapter 5 - Not The Point
Advertisement
Leo takes out his phone to look at his notifications.
You have received 500 work points. Total 600 work points.
Leo raises an eyebrow. Work points? What's that? He asks himself. He quickly navigates to the Black Star app to explore it a bit.
Welcome to the Black Star app! Here, on the Summary Page, you can find you work point balance and your work point credit, as well as your ongoing jobs and your rewards.
You may earn work points by accepting job requests on the Job Board or by completing automatically assigned jobs.
Work points can be spent in in the Reward Store! Remember, we work hard, we play hard, so continue to try your best!
Also, if you had questions about your identity, those details can be found in the Identity Tab. Your name, background, banking information, and credentials can all be found there.
If you have any questions, please refer to our F.A.Q. on our website or contact support.
Leo lets out a sigh. Fuck, it’s like a game. He thinks before navigating to the reward store.
Leo’s eyes widen. Fuck! 50 points just to enjoy coffee!? 100 points to enjoy a pack of cigarettes!? 300 points to get drunk!? You’ve got to be kidding me! Leo exclaims as he reads through the various rewards. Leo’s eyes continue to widen. “Holy fucking shit! 1000 points to go to sleep!? You got to be fucking kidding me!” Leo exclaims out loud.
And how many points did I just get for getting stabbed!? Just 500 points!? You bitch! Leo continues to exclaim.
Leo continues to scroll when suddenly he raises an eyebrow. What the fuck is this? Artistic Ability? Is that something you can buy? Wait there’s more… Wing Chun Quan? Tai Chi Quan? You can buy martial arts skills? That doesn’t sound right. Wait. What the fuck is this. The Art of Witchcraft? Foundational Magic? Are you fucking serious? Leo thinks with disbelief before forcing his eyes off the phone. Am I high or did this thing just say I can buy magic abilities? He asks himself before shaking his head. I’m not even going to worry about that right now. For now I’m just worried about how I’m going to get to sleep. He thinks before deciding to look for a job.

Hmm… Approve a bank loan? 3000 work points? Requirements… Must be employed as a Loan Officer or in a similar position. What the fuck? Leo thinks before going into the details. The business product is irrelevant. But this person’s idea for a business has a high potential for creating plot points. Plot points? What the fuck is that? Leo thinks before rubbing his head. He had a feeling that the world worked in a much weirder way than he initially assumed. Also, I have to be employed by a bank for this? That’s messed up. It’s so much effort just to complete a job. Leo thinks before deciding to check out his identity details. Who knew he could have a degree he didn’t know about.
Hmm… I have a College Diploma for System Administration and Network Infrastructure, and a few vendor certifications. That sounds about right. He thinks as he rubs his chin. It pretty much matched what Leo was doing in his previous life. Hmm. My banking details… Leo thinks with a mischievous grin. He looked a child on Christmas, waiting to open his presents.
Leo quickly finds his banking app and enters his information. Leo’s eyes are drawn to the number in the account, and his grin begins to spread until it looked creepy. Hehehe. You assholes. You actually did it. You left a million dollars in my account. Do you treat all the newbies so well? Leo thinks like he just got away with doing something illegal. Well, I guess money’s not the point of the game anymore. Surviving isn’t really it either… Leo thinks as mind is drawn back to the rewards store. It seems the goals and aspirations of this life can reach much higher than I previously thought… Leo thinks as he thought about the possibilities.

Steamforged Sorcery [A Steampunk LitRPG]
This is a fantasy story in a steampunk setting, not a sci-fi. The Great War ravaged the face of the earth many years ago. In the years that passed, the world rebuilt, mixing machinery and magic to form something new. Great blimps took to the sky, belching steam and smoke as metal cities sprouted like weeds below. Angel, a talented mage, scours the desert endlessly in search of lost knowledge. When it unexpectedly falls into his hands, he quickly comes to realize that the world is far larger – and far more deadly – than he ever could have predicted. But no amount of danger is going to keep Angel from seeking out greater strength and traveling the world, claiming all the greatest treasure that it has to offer. To most, the desert is a dangerous threat to be feared. To Angel, it’s a land of opportunity, waiting to be exploited. Steamforged Sorcery is, as the title suggests, a LitRPG Steampunk story with heavy focus on magic and scenery. The main character starts out relatively strong (but far from overpowered) but will eventually grow in strength to incredible levels. It is moderately paced and does not progress at ridiculous speeds. Release Schedule: 1,500 words daily Monday-Friday

I was Reborn as the Villainess but I will become a Great Sage
Nova Allandis, formerly known as Suna Lee, remembers her previous life and realizes her current life is as the villainess in a fantasy novel she once read. However, as Suna, she was the laziest person with no motivation, possibly attributed to the fact that she didn't go into a major that was her strongest suit. Now that she has a high affinity towards magic and wishes to go into it, will she be able to change her lazy self for the better, or will she go back to being lazy like the villainess in the novel? Can she become a Great Sage and live life happily this time? Note: This is not a "revenge of the villainess" novel, but rather a "rise to fame" novel. A/N: This is just an experimental novel and criticisms are much appreciated, but I'm extremely defensive of my own work and characters. If you are here to put down a novel, please remember, first of all, you are not paying anything to read this, and second of all, authors are humans too.
