《The Tale of a Fenrir》Walk down the path of slaughter?
Advertisement
That was a good nap.
Wait. Wasn't there a System that was trying to bond to me?
I looked around me, but I didn't see a blue screen float anywhere.
Huff. That was all just a dream. On second thought, it would be very cool to have a System of some kind in this unknown world.
I have read enough novels in my previous life, where the Protagonist gets a overpowered System and had missions like: Sit on a couch to gain 100000 exp.
It really bothered that some Mcs just had everything handed to them without any hardships.
But, I would be the last one to complain, if I myself got such a system
I could say "Open Status" and could assign all my skill points to strength and...
Booom!!!
I would be the strongest being in the universe!!!
HOST HAS OPENED THE DEVOURER SYSTEM.
STATUS WILL BE SHOWN.
STATUS:
NAME: ZACK
LEVEL: 1 (0/100 EXP)
SPECIES: MUDI DOG
PHASE: CUB
TITLES: NONE
HEIGHT:15 CM
WEIGHT: 4 Kg
HEALTH: 10 HP
STRENGTH: 1
AGILITY: 1
ENDURANCE:1
DEFENCE:1
INTELLIGENCE: 7
SKILLS: BITE (LV 1), SCRATCH (LV 1)
That wasn't just a dream!?!
Devourer System?
Do I just need to eat to level up and get skill points?
Yeah, that would be cool. I can just relax and eat the whole day and simultaneously become stronger.
SYSTEM FEELS THE NEED TO CORRECT HOST.
YOU WON'T LEVEL UP FROM JUST EATING. HOST NEEDS TO KILL LIFE FORMS AND THEN EAT THEM.
So, I have to walk down the path of slaughtering everything?
YES.
Do I need to level up?
YES, IF HOST DOESN'T TRY TO LEVEL UP AND GAIN SKILLS THE SYSTEM WILL OBLITERATE YOU.
So I don't have a choice?
What can do? I just have to accept it.

So System I will try to level up, but first I have several questions.
First,what determides how much exp, I gain when killing something?
Their strength??
THE EXPERIENCE WILL BE GIVEN BASED ON THE INTELLIGENCE AND POWER OF THE BEINGS YOU KILL.
Then why didn't I have to kill something to get the system?
THE ONE WHO CREATED ME DIDN'T WANT TO MAKE IT TOO HARD FOR HOST TO ACTIVATE THE SYSTEM.
Why did he do that? Shouldn't the conditions to activate the system be something special?
HOST, MY CREATOR ISN'T A SADIST. HE JUST WANTS SOME ENTERTAINMENT.
Yeah, that makes sense. Ahhhh why didn't I think of sich a obvious answer?
Anyway, moving on to the next question?
On what are my stat values based on? Is 1 maybe, the average stat of a human?
HOST, IF THAT WAS THE CASE YOU WOULDN'T HAVE A STAT VALUE OF 7 IN INTELLIGENCE.
I MEAN YOU ARE AT BEST A 0,9 IF I USED THE HUMAN AVERAGE.
Ok, I get it, but there is no need to be so savage.
I understand, that I am nothung special, but there sure is a way to make it sound more nicely.
Then, what are the values based on?
THEY ARE BASED ON THE AVERAGE STATS OF A MUDI(DOG SPECIES) CUB. IN COMPARISON TO THEM, YOU ARE HIGHLY INTELLIGENT.
CONGRATULATIONS!!!
I don't think I should be proud of that.
Anyway, I should begin to level up. But, there is one problem... I don't have anything to kill in here!!!
I also don't see a way to escape this damm place and start my epic adventure.
Mmmmm, I should just sleep.
As a famous philosopher onve said:" If you have a problem Sleep. After that you will know the answer.
HOST, ACCORDING TO MY DATABASE THERE WAS NEVER A PHILOSOPHER ON YOUR HOMEPLANET THAT SAID SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

Nobody asked you. Just shut up.
I will sleep now and maybe the problem will solve itself.
I really hope so....
The next day:
One could see a fancy carriage on a crowded street. Inside was a boy that was roughly 13 years old. He seems to be in deep thought.
Pov Leon:
Huh, today's the day, I am going to get my pet dog.
I didn't want a pet at first, but my mother convinced me to try it.
These days it was very popular for children of the upper classes to have some kind of rare or expensive pet.
Often some of my friends would even compete with other kinds who's pet was the most expensive and talented one.
I find such competitions, a waste of time. But, my mother thinks otherwise and sees this as a way to increase our social standpoint
I really love my mother, but she worries too much about what other think about her.
Suddenly I hear the voice of my carriage driver and come back into reality.
"Master Leon, we have arrived."
I look at the white building and can't not find it impressive how gigantic it is.
This is a place where most of the pets for noble children like me are breed.
They have a good reputation and nobody was ever disappointed with the animal they got from here.
I get out of the carriage and go to the entrance of the facility.
This is going to be a long day.

The Ancient Core: A Progression Fantasy
The title of [The Ancient One] is bestowed upon an unassuming, forgotten Core. Hidden deep underground, it lies in wait, biding its time as it learns the rules of its surroundings. Roaming beasts and unknown threats surely threaten the little rock as it sticks to the darkness, its one true refuge. This is a slow-burning Dungeon-Core fiction with a LitRPG-System. You can expect an extreme amount of kingdom-building, an more in-depth Mana-System, and a Evolution-System. Chapters are between the length of 2-4k words, though the first 50 will likely be closer to 4k. Anything after will have the average be 2.5k. I personally like explaining how things work a lot, so do have that in mind if you decide to read this fiction. Cover is credited to [Asviloka] who can be found on this thread:https://www.royalroad.com/forums/thread/110578 [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

As the Godking Wills
The Empire and the Church span almost the entirety of the known world, absent some pockets of lawlessness and the realms of the deceiver. They are governed as a despotic theocracy, ruled in name by the solitary and omnipotent God, Al'Shazan.In practice, Al'Shazan is bored, flighty, cruel and has little interest in ruling the Empire. Instead the Empire is run by the High Priest, Minister of the Treasury, and the Knight Commander of the inquisition. Their job is to make sense of the contradictory nonsense spewed forth by their living God while simultaneously ruling the greatest nation that the world has ever known. The entire time, they have to maintian the facade that Al'Shazan is a benevolent and loving God in order to maintain morale in the general populace. --------- The actual genre for this is more along the lines of a Fantasy Political Comedy/Drama/Thriller. It will not be 'crunchy' (minimal action, minimal descriptions of powers/abilities) but instead be focusing on world building and political maneuvering. As a warning, it is fairly dark.

Rise of the Human Emperor
The Gods and Goddesses felt dissatisfied with the development of the mortals, and thus they decided to create a game. Animals mutated, and fantasy-like monsters invaded the world. Humans thought they were forsaken by the Gods. However, hope came after discovering that anyone that killed a mutated animal or monsters would awaken an internal energy called 'Mana'. Miraculous abilities such as the manipulation of elements, moving objects with the mind, and more super-human abilities appeared one after another. But... Would the humans truly survive the trials, be them internal or external? Would the terrors that come from their mutated planet, and beings that come from the vast sea of stars have mercy on them? Or would they fight till one side is exterminated? Would the Humans rise through the endless chaos, or succumb to the darkness of death? A sick game for entertainment of the Gods, and survival of the humans. This is the Rise of the Human Emperor. Disclaimer: The cover's drawing do not belong to me, it was edited by a good friend. If its owner wants me to remove it, then I will do so.

The 48 Laws of Power in Practice
Discover how power works in the world, through true stories and real-world applications. In the game of power, we all play - as either conscious or unconscious players. So we can't afford not to know the rules. The ** chapters have the most outrageous content. In each chapter, I will be summarizing one of the laws and how it can be applied to current events and pop culture. Some of you have told me the stories are what you enjoy the most. They are real, raw, and anonymous so that others may learn from my mistakes. There will be cringe-worthy stories of self-sabotage, but perhaps also some unlikely triumphs. Some of the details are changed to protect the innocent, (or perhaps guilty). "The 48 Laws of Power" by Robert Greene illustrates truths about power, through philosophy and lessons from three thousand years of history, which still hold true today. There is a lot to learn from each chapter. I encourage you to go on this journey with me by reflecting on how each law might apply to you. Together, may we learn from the past and take control of the future.
