《Dystopian Dictator》End of phase 1 note
Advertisement
This is, as the title said, a note on the future of this story and concluding what happened so far. The first quarter of this novel had taken me roughly six months to write and I had quite a love/hate experience with it. Of course, I adore my own creation and love all the characters I created, even the one I killed. But writing can be tedious at time and I sometimes feel the urge to just stop altogether. I had fallen to quite a break, unable to finish a single chapter in three weeks, but hopefully, I will get better from here on out.
For the second phase of my novel, I already finished three out of the thirteen chapters I intended for it, and obviously I will slow down the 2 days per upload I have going on. It will from here on out be a weekly upload on Friday at the same time as I am posting now. Since I am not a fast writer, some weeks will not have a chapter out, but I will release it as frequently as possible, for the sake of the six people who decided to follow this odd novel.
Regardless, I sincerely hope that you guys will start commenting on this novel, so we can make this novel a sort of community I like it to be. So here a plea from me, I like you all to comment what you like to see in the future of this novel. Do you want to see how much of a threat Robin can pose, or do you wish to see the history of how Gorbach's friend came to be, comment on.

8 185Ur Online
Wulfric Blackwell was his name, or at least the one he'd use this time. He really had no idea what his real name was. All of his memories had disappeared after an eternity in the Void, but the disembodied voice that called herself Eve said that's what he called himself in his last life on Ur before a technical error that sent him into that place where time and space meant nothing. If he wanted to remember who he was, then he'd have to play the game. Hopefully he didn't die again too soon. [LitRPG] + [Isekai]
8 198Ambition [Indefinite Hiatus]
Hunger, poverty, and suffering rampages throughout the world of Terra, as its seven great nations remain locked in a draining stalemate. In the midst of all this, Eremus and Ducis, two insignificant boys born with nothing, to nothing, develop a grand ambition to conquer the world and rid it of the concept of war forever. Eremus is proud of his cunning, and is confident that it will serve him well in achieving his shared ambition with Ducis. However, now he must match wits with the greatest minds of the land, and he may find that he has bitten off far more than he can chew... Note: This is a story I wrote when I was in high school, and have only recently moved it here to Royal Road. It was my first stab at writing an original fiction of my own, and though I had many things planned for it, I don't think I'll be continuing this now or in the forseeable future.
8 197Conquest
Out of nowhere and a time that no one could remember, the dungeons came to be. Bringing with it wondrous new into the world but also equally dangerous terrors lurking within its corridors. Of the countless said to have spawned from nowhere, 5 had risen to the challenge against the human species. The rest destroyed due to their own weakness, only these 5 still stand in this era and each ruled by 1 great family. And now, a fresh adult male would soon join the exalted ranks of those that brave the dangerous corridors of the dungeons. Aiden Smith, the soon to be a S ranked Adventurer. If only that was true, perhaps life wouldn’t be so hard. Inspiration from domain warz and phantasmal party , very irregular releases and my first release, let the criticism begin! Pics not mine.
