《Dungeon in a xianxia》Prologue-where's my cheat?
Advertisement
A normal day, in a normal city, on a normal planet, that may or may not be earth, our unlikely main character, an avid reader of novels and watcher of anime, fresh from the store with a stack of new shows and books, he sees in the middle of the street a toddler on a tricycle two thought flash through his mind, one that kid has terrible parents, and two, this is my chance to reincarnate in another world! He speeds towards the kid and pushes them out of the way just in time and then the truck slams into him flipping him over the hood like a rag doll then the body hits the pavement.
Mc p.o.v
""all I see is darkness, did it work?""
(double parentheses is thinking)
"Where's the old man in a robe?"
"Where's my op magic?!"
"what the hell is this"
""What the hell was that?"" His body lurched and started falling through the darkness he fell for what seemed like ages the darkness slowly turned into a white light
"What the hell is that?" I say as I see something small fast approaching
wumpf
I slam into a soft carpet
"where am I?"
around me I see. what looks like an office. next to me is a bookshelf filled with books(no shit mc) on my other side is a bust of a man with horns
"fuck no! I am not going to hell!"
anyways back to the "office", in front of me is a desk(I'm not sure if this is right) on the desk is a name tag and one of those ball pendulum things, the name tag says st.peter and behind the desk is what looks like a gray stone statue with no face or any discernible features.

asuddenly I hear a voice say
(st.peter)"hello, and welcome to afterlife offices I'm st.peter and I'll be handling you in your time Here"
(Mc)"who said that?!"
a voice coming from the stone statue said
(st.peter)"I did"
""Wait a Minute. Talking statue, white space?! Is this... reincarnation!?!??!""
(st.peter)"no you're dead and it's my job to get you to where you need to go"
(Mc)"is it a place with swords and magic?"
(St.peter)"let's see... aaaand nope. In the afterlife you get to work in a cubicle for as long as you lived in real life! Congratulations!"
(mc)"fuck you!"
(st.peter)"now now, no one likes a smartass. Now come along lets get you to your new job"
the stone,man,thing stands up and a portal appears next to his desk, he grabs my arm and pulls me in. All I see around me isstrange pulseing blue light
(mc)"st.peter?
(st.peter)"yes?"
(mc)"fuck you"
I push away from peter and into the pulsing blue void
i slam around into what feels like walls, it hurts almost as if my body is being run over by a train or it would if I had a body but it appears that I'm a disembodied soul so I just feel an uncomfortable pressure suddenly I slam into one of the "walls" and I feel it give in. I slip out into a starry night sky, I pause for a moment before starting to fall.
(mc)"aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhh"
the ground approaches me at breakneck speed, then when I touch the ground a pass right through.
""Wait... if I go through the ground then won't I get stuck at this planets core?!??!""
i desperately try to grab any thing I can,the things around me start to disappear but I keep falling.

i ignore the screens as they pop up but i feel a change coming over me, it feels odd like I'm growing bigger yet shrinking at the same time. I continue to fall I see a ball of energy I assume is the planets core I ram into the ball at full speed a pass right through it I feel a powerful energy run through my veins do souls even have veins? I don't have time to think about it because at that moment everything goes black.
3rd person point of view
The planet ziytis, the home of the strongest beings in the universe is dying, the oceans and rivers begin to dry and the plants, to wither. as it dies it drains the life force of its inhabitants to prolong its existence for even a second longer, behemoths fall and dragons die, the greatest of healers and the worst of necromancers fail to escape the grip of death as all life on the planet is sucked toward its core in one last ditch effort the planet compresses itself In an attempt to destroy the parasite within but even that just gives it more to feed off of and the planets core shine brighter and brighter,and then... it's gone.

Pursuing the Demon Lord
Chet is your average college student. He works at a part time job to help pay for his education and clips coupons on the weekends to help save a few dollars when he goes shopping. However, dreams of a simple life and working at a decent job are quickly tossed aside as he finds himself transported into what he assumes to be a fantasy world! Everything was going exactly as he expected it to go, as he had read a few novels describing situations exactly like the one he found himself in. But those expectations are quickly thrown out the window when the Demon Lord herself shows up for a surprise visit! Perhaps this land of fantasy isn't so fantastical after all. (Updates whenever this funky cat completes a chapter.)
8 215Salvation of the Empire
One man with the hope of millions of frightened people. One man with the power to save a crumbling empire. One man with the ability to unite what has been divided. In a war-torn era, The Crisis of the 3rd Century, a period of both internal and external unrest and turmoil in the Roman Empire, the greatest of all time, meet Aurelian the Restorer of the World, most underrated emperor of the antique. In an alternative scenario where history unfolded in a different way than we used to know, our hero shall pay any price necessary, sacrifice anything demanded of him and destroy anything in his wake for one single thing, for one simple dream. The dream of Rome, the whisper of history, of greatness and civilization, of morals and of conquest. A dream surpassing generations, centuries, millennia. A dream still breathed today. The dream of an united world, a world in harmony and peace.

A collection of my Reddit's Writing Prompts replies. This is a cleaned collection of various prompts I have replied to over the years. Some will just have grammar and spelling corrected. Others will get expanded. Some are simple, especially my early ones. Many of the later submissions are a complete short story. Most are just a self-contained story, but I will carry over the existing ideas if the prompt inspires something. Though I hope that some will become more than a simple prompt submission. https://old.reddit.com/r/SilverLuckyScriptures/ Moved over to Royal Roads as the UI is superior for naviation and enjoyment.
8 138An Average American in A High-school Academy Anime
An American versed in narrative tropes and more than mildly acquainted with anime wakes up in a completely different bed than the one he went to bed in. Now he has to scramble to understand where he is, what's going on, and hope to God he isn't in a relationship drama. I don't expect this to be good or well-received, but I have plenty of time this quarantine, so I'll try to get a chapter of 4000-10000 words out every one or two weeks. (haha) Please let me know how it can be improved. I'm an avid reader of fiction, but I've never really fallen down a rabbit hole so hard that I can name all tropes and settings and such by heart. I'm not sure if this will be effective satire, so I preemptively apologize. Inspired by: "My Life is Not a Manga, or maybe..." by EO Tenkey and "The Simulacrum" by Eganthale. Check them out if you want probably better stories than this one.
