《The Awakening – From a Nobody To The World’s Strongest Antihero》Hiatus Reason & Partial Chapter 16
Advertisement
Reason:
Too many changes in my daily life instantly killed any motivation I had to continue this story. However, I will finish this and return. I won't let this time be wasted. I'll focus on understanding my own story further and where I want to take this.
Kibo Is part of many worlds, not just one. I have to create those worlds from scratch and keep them original. It's not easy. Some are fantasy, sci-fi, modern, wastelands etc. Then I have to build histories behind them, fill them with characters for our mc to interact with and so on. The more I continue this story as the first version with 50% planning and 50% winging it. The small inconsistencies will start to grow and hurt the story. I have already noticed multiple which will hurt the story greatly if I continue writing it.
Some said this seemed like a well-planned story but that's just an illusion. The first two worlds have detailed histories anything further is unknown.
For the people who were enjoying reading this and saw potential in it, I apologise. I promise you one day that I will get back to finishing this story and it won't become lost in the void. I will continue to write chapters when I'm not here, and I will write one epic journey for our Kibo. I will write epic boss battles, and make him go through the toughest of challenges. I wish to see him succeed in a world I will create.
The story isn't going to change much from what it is now. I will just change how he interacts and talks to people where needed and I will have a more solid idea on how his powers work and where in the story it will be best for him to 'unlock' those powers.

For the people who wanted to read Chapter 16. I only wrote it partially. Please understand his powers are not finalised and are subject to change in the final version of the story. But what I can say for sure is he will be an incredibly OP character. The only restraints are himself and the seals on his power.
Chapter 16 – Solo Raiding a Blizzard Wolf Dungeon
[One week ago]
╔══════════ “°❈° “ ══════════╗
You have Entered the Dungeon
of the Alpha Blizard Wolf
╚══════════ “°❈° “ ══════════╝
Kibo emerged from the dying light of the portal. The howling winds raced all around him as it struck his face, the chilling touch sent shivers down his body. He raised his hand to shield his eyes from the countless flakes of snow which were carried by the ferocious winds. The unrelenting wind had forced him to press his chin against his chest. He pulled his fur hood over his head.
Not wanting to give up already, he pushed forward. Each stride sank his feet further into the snow. His visibility was low, but all he could do was press ahead. In a short few minutes, his speed had significantly decreased, and his vision was turning darker, unable to hold on in the extreme temperatures of this dungeon.
“Not now! I need to keep going forward!” he resisted. However, his legs buckled as he collapsed onto his knees.
The eerily familiar status screen popped up.

Gradually the piercing feeling from the sub-zero temperatures decreased as he regained his senses in his fingers and toes. He raised his hands in front of his face.

“Void Immunity?” He spoke to himself, surprised by what just happened.
He thought, ‘if I had a skill like this the entire time, why did it not activate immediately?’ He facepalmed himself and poked his finger towards the text which read Void Immunity.
Passive Skill: Void Immunity (Lvl: MAX)
Description: Absolute Immunity towards all thermal fluctuations and poisons within the network.
Kibo could not fathom what he was seeing. He couldn’t decide what was more surprising, the fact that he has received a maxed out skill which would be considered in the realm of the gods or the fact it says within the network.
“What is this network? Does it mean dungeons or maybe it means the portals in general? I don’t understan-” Kibo was cut off from a distant, daunting howl which echoed between the peaks of the mountains.
After a momentary silence, dozens of smaller howls could be heard all around him. Kibo stumbled back onto his feet as he spun in a circle trying to locate the sound, but it was already coming from all directions.
Within the darkness of the raging blizzard, gleaming blue eyes appeared all around him.
In the distance, a gigantic figure of a wolf appeared hidden behind the never-ending blizzard. An unsettling deep voice filled the air.
“Human turn back now.”
“Wow...”
Kibo stood there with sparkling eyes as he looked up towards the distant horizon. Mesmerised by the hidden figure of the gigantic wolf with it’s shining blue eyes.
“My summon!” He told himself.
“That will be my summon!” He repeated with added vigour.
He smiled intensely at the fact he will command such a massive beast. Confidence was bursting through his skin, not aware of the level of threat which was before him all he could feel was excitement as adrenaline rushed through his veins.
I'll be back 😏😎

Rising World
Vonn of Shieldpoint is an ambitious young inventor who, as far as his family knows, just survived a terrible accident. Really, he didn't. Instead a being known as the System has recruited the soul of a modern college student from our world, to fill in for him. Given a new life in a new body, the former human wants to make good use of it and fulfill the dreams of the one he's replacing. He's an Engineer in a world where that's a character class with explicit levels and stats. This world is just discovering the power of steam and clockwork and the occasional magic dungeon crystal, so Vonn is just in time to become a famous genius. He just needs to figure out what the gods actually want from him. (LitRPG Isekai with light but important stats, nonhuman MC. Cover art by Alexandra, https://www.deviantart.com/oktoberbeef .) This book is now available on Amazon! https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B09H5CQSX5 For legal reasons, I need to hide most of the content from Royal Road for now. The version for sale is revised and expanded anyway, including a rewritten opening. If the book does well, that's encouragement to write more of it soon! Reviews are welcome too. As noted in the afterward, it's been fun and useful to share this work with all of you here as I worked on it. Update 2022/2/22: Wow, it did do well! Thanks to all who read, commented, bought, and/or spread the word. Right now I'm working on a side-story about character Selen, and posting that starting yesterday. I do plan to do a true sequel this year, yet.

Directorate: Nationbuilding in Apocalypse
A nation is just a means of survival. Metro Manila fell within 5 months of the first report of cannibalism. Once a hyperurbanized region of 15 million inhabitants, it's been reduced to a dead, greenless shell. Most of the infected had since left to ravage the countryside. The central government was nowhere to be found. Among the survivors who clung to the few gardens and humble plots of arable land left, one of them finds evidence that the slaughter wasn't going to just end with the first wave. Without a nation and a wall of guns, everyone will die. Directorate is an original nationbuilding webnovel that focuses on the gradual rise to power of a select few individuals, and the subsequent unification of the survivors of a devastated Metro Manila. Releases targeted at every 1 to 3 weeks. If there are no chapter updates after 3 weeks, there will be a progress update. Number of releases targeted at a maximum of 100 chapters. Every 10-15 chapters, there will be a 1-month hiatus to let me plan for the next 10-15 chapters. Double releases have a not-insignificant-but-still-small chance of occurring. Original cover edited on GIMP. Destroyed city original photo "apocalypse" from Camila Rodrigues on Pixabay.

Lord of cauldrons
A man reincarnated to a world where cultivation ruled supreme. One were even practices like human cauldrons and dual cultivation was commonplace and a part of the culture. What was not commonplace was treating these cauldrons with any ounce of respect or affection. These cauldrons were like pills or potions to be used and consumed or thrown away. They were often just a stepping stone in one's immortal path. One man thought, "What if they were my immortal path." --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- My chinese knowledge is limited to wuxia/xianxia books and cultivator games and I will only follow it loosely, I have my own cultivation system which will be basis for this story The reason I am writing this is because I have yet to find a dual cultivation story that has something I really wanted to read. Using the 'cauldrons' like Pokémon and the 'cauldrons' being the main source of power. I will update this at a minimum of once per week.
