《Undiminished》CHAPTER THREE: LIFE IS LIKE A BOX OF CHOCOLATES, BUT THE CHOCOLATES ARE SHIT
Advertisement
- Teleportation successful. No further problems have occurred during or after your teleportation. - Welcome to your brave new world! It is filled with danger around every corner, amazing new locations to be discovered, and an exciting new civilization to see. - And you’re dead. Well great, aren't you an overachieving go-getter? Well, I might as well take the time to explain a little bit about your ability to respawn while you are in the time out zone. So, while most people would just be dead when they die, you get to feel all of the pain of death but you also get to enjoy the benefit of never truly dying. - The perks don't stop there. Every time you die you get just a little bit more powerful. You gain an increase of 0.01% per each death. This will increase when you manage to survive for four full days without dying. - Last but not least, let's talk about your respawn timer. It's set at ten seconds currently, but again, this will change when you prove that you can survive. - Oh, come on. Can't you at least survive longer than a millisecond? I'll take this death as a big no can do. - Congratulations! You have set an all-time new record for fastest death and most deaths. For achieving this monumental feat, you will be rewarded with a title. - Most people fear death. You, however, are dumb enough to embrace her like a long-lost lover. This has unlocked the unique title Death's Bitch Boy. - Seeing as I seriously doubt you will be able to break out of your cycle of death and respawning any time soon, this will be the last time I communicate with you for a while. Honestly, after the first two sentences of whatever the fucking green words are, I was at the point of ignoring anything that was shown to me. It's not fun being stuck in a death cycle where you can't do anything but keep dying. Then to top it, off you get to look at big green words criticizing your every action. Let's just say I'm not very happy at the moment and about the only good thing about this situation is the fact I'm dying so fast I feel no pain. Other than having lots of time to think about things, I've been unable to do anything else. I mean, who the fuck wants to look at a bunch of numbers while they are sitting around to die? I can't even tell how long I've been stuck doing the same things over and over. If I had to guess, I'm on death number 156, and that counter isn't going to stop going up any time soon. The only thing I've managed to see is a ruined city. Granted that was only getting to see small glances during the times in which I was alive. Oh look, I have respawned yet again. Maybe I'll actually get to do something before death takes me yet again. Hmm well, that is surprising. The sun isn't yellow anymore, it just so happens to be red

8 193Demon Hunters
Far in the future, the last two viable cities in the western hemisphere – Technoburbia and New Baravia – struggle for control over a vast and largely desolate land. Officially they are at war. In practice, the war has been a stalemate for a generation, the disputed frontier between the two city-states never moving. In the city of New Baravia itself, a vast circular concrete wall keeps its inhabitants in, and its refugees out. For its citizens, life is monotonous and unequal, with enormous wealth in the hands of nobles, criminal gangs, and entertainment bosses. It is the last of these that control the hit entertainment show, “Demon Hunters”. A chance, perhaps, for the ordinary man or woman to rise up, and change their fate... This LitRPG novella is based around a futuristic battle-royale situation, partly set in VR, and partly in a post-apocalyptic city. The story features combat and action, some strong language, and lots of great characters that will stick with you! [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

8 207Faith's End: Godfall
"The Heart and Soul of our world met the Red Tempest of our species and is now without faith. Doomed to coil around the sun like a dying serpent in a bleeding desert," - Scholar Pulram. It is a time of darkness in the hearts of mortals. On a day unlike any other, in a battle meant to be standard fare, their lives were changed forever. Now, they have fallen, so quickly, to the vices of despair, misery, and fanaticism. The worst of them reign supreme with kratocratic tyranny, each squabbling over stretches of land and driving their subjects into poverty, fear, and mountains of the dead. By their hands, entire nations will fall, and whole peoples will be eradicated over petty reasons of ideological differences and speciesism. But all is not so bleak for everyone. Jira ne'Jiral, the knight of secrets, refuses to bow to those men and women who so callously obliterate the world, fighting to protect a world that distrusts her. Orlantha Quills, broken and lost, wanders the world with her enigmatic companion in search of the truth. Gíla Arsinoe, a Drayheller of little renown, works with the fates themselves for the salvation of the future. Three stories that will converge as the world itself splits apart in chaos and madness.
