《Void Emperor》Clearing the trial-dungeon
Advertisement
The shadowy whip appeared out of nothing taking the spider queen by surprise and binding her right below the ceiling.
The queen’s face was covered in annoyance but her facial expression soon changed into one that was covered in sheer terror.
Rumbling noises were heard and then the ceiling came crushing down on the spider queen who was screaming in pain,anger and agony.
Dante took this chance to drink a few health and mana potions,at the state he was now he could barely use one or two skills,who knew when this crazy boss might stand up again and kill him.
After a few minutes of him recovering with his guard up,Dante decided to slowly walk towards the already trapped spider queen and kill her.
“I am sorry,you probably think that i am evil for eating your children and trying to take your life,but such is the world that we live in....If i wont do it i will be the one who remains weak and becomes prey to someone much stronger than me.
Blame your bad luck”
He coated his sword with his void spirit and thrusted it deeply into the spiders neck dealing her 90 dmg out of the remaining 100,she was now left with 10 health and was on the verge of death.
“Looks like fate twisted again,now you are the one almost dying with only 10 health remaining”
The vitality absorption sphere appeared at his palm and he waited for the sphere to grow big enough and swallow the spider queen,such processes was needed to refine it into an inner spirit of high rank.
The spider who seemed to have already given up did not even flinch,she was swallowed by the dark sphere and died like a true monster queen having accepted her death that came from a stronger predator.......Such was the fate of those who were weak !

Happy with the thought of having 7 spider queens at his command,he decided to read the notification window that popped up after killing the spider queen.
Notification:You have slain the dungeon boss and cleared the profession trial dungeon,you are awarded with 100 gemstones , 20 chrysalis eggs and a silver quality chest.
You will receive your rewards once the trial is over!
“Man ,why the hell am i not getting any rewards?looks like i have to cross this damned corridor again”
He drank a few more potions and walked all the way back to the deepest part of the temple’s dark corridor.
He opened the black aluminium door and went through it without hesitating.
“Took you long enough kid,i almost died from boredom “
Inside was a living room with a comfortable couch and a giant HD TV.
Laying in the couch was an actual parrot like man,he had the beak and the feathers but the way he talked and stood was actually human like.
“Whats with that look kiddo,could it be that you have never seen such a handsome guy before”
Dante almost vomited blood,he himself was narcissistic but this birdie took it to a whole new level.

“I know what you are thinking,why is a person of the demi-parrot tribe watching earthly TV shows inside an actual dungeon...Well,i am here to grant you a profession of course”
He flew from the couch and landed on the table in front of Dante.
All of a sudden , 3 notification windows popped up.
Notification:The S class Demon Warlock profession is now available to you.
Notification:The S class Dark Shaman profession is now available to you.
Notification:The S class Supreme Dark Magus profession is now available to you.
“Now kiddo,what will you choose?
Remember to choose wisely,the profession you choose is deeply related to the word you will be granted passage to once you reach 100 fate “
Since they were all S class they definitely had to be super strong,but does this mean that the other world’s people will be super strong too?
“This handsome senior,i wonder if my ignorant self can ask you a question”
The parrot man pretended like he didn’t care that Dante called him handsome senior,but his eyes already became less indifferent which made it obvious to Dante that he would tell him a few things.
“If you wanna know which one to chose,you can just read the skills that they give you and decide for yourself”
“No no you misunderstood me.....
I just need to know whether i could bring my servants with me once I am granted passage to the other world”
The fact that Dante was already thinking that far proved that he trusted himself to survive the new era and fulfil his ambitions in the other world.The parrot man refused to underestimate this little guy any longer.
“The slaves that you have purchased through the cosmic market are already your possessions,just like the rest of your possessions they will be allowed to follow you to the other world...
As for other people who aren’t your slaves,well i doubt anyone who is not a slave would follow someone in this new era where everyone is free to chase strength without being shackled by laws and morals,i advice you to be careful.
That servant of yours will sooner or later betray you to fulfil their own ambitions”
Well,what he said made a lot of sense but he still needed to know if he could bring Maria with him.
After all she had been with him from the time he was a child,he wasn’t used to being without her.
“My butler Maria,she is more devoted to me than my slaves are and will ever be,so there is 0 chance that she would betray me...I will have her killed the moment she thinks of betrayal anyway,if she ever does of course!”
Such a ruthless kid,the parrot man was actually surprised.
“Didn’t think you were this viscous kid,now that i think about it...it kinda makes sense for that void fiend spirit to chose you”

8 868The Cosmic Interloper
Synopsis: A cyborg transhuman escapes her corporate indenture and through unfathomably unlikely circumstances, she ends up in a fantasy world of full of unique magic, angry people with sharp implements, and the whole flavor-spectrum of divine entities. Hilarity ensues. Features: - No blue boxes or cultivation, this is not a LitRPG nor about martial arts - Hard-ish Sci-Fi meets hard-ish magic - Generally trying to keep this "rational" Rationale: My primary goal with The Cosmic Interloper is to write something that I myself would enjoy reading. Of course, that’s not the only motivation, but I think it’s the most important one for me to keep in mind, especially as the author. In fact, this whole story came about because after consuming oodles of fiction, I found myself craving a very specific type of story which I couldn’t find many examples of. Then I asked myself, “why not write it myself?” and here we are. Disclaimer: In general, while I’m not writing a comedy, I do intend for this story to be funny and a bit wacky or absurd. That said though, I am using this story as a vehicle to explore some potentially dark topics including (but not limited to) slavery, speciesism/racism, and existential questions of self, consciousness, and identity. Still, I’m going to leave the “traumatizing content” tags off, because I don’t feel that what I’ve written so far (or plan on writing) exceeds the threshold that would be necessary for me to tag it thusly. Also, [insert your favorite boilerplate “views expressed” disclaimer here]. I shouldn’t need to say this, but the main character can be wrong on occasion (gasp!) and the way she views the world is not the objective truth (if such a thing even exists).
