《Eric the Unready》Chapter 3 - Don't Panic
Advertisement
Eric found himself in the deep forest. The trees obscured the sky and the shadows were deep. Eric wanted to say "We're not in Kansas anymore". but such a cliché deserved flying monkeys to carry him away. Don't borrow trouble. Eric started to think about all the Isekai stories he had read, but he didn't remember being hit by a truck, and while he loved to game, his current fare was Kerbal, Shipbreaker, and Hearts of Iron 4 (OWB Fallout Mod), not the latest JRPG, MMO, or VR game.
"Status", Eric shamefully mumbled. No blue screen appeared. Nope, Isekai definitely wasn't in the cards here.
Eric recognized that the jokes and clichés were his internal attempt to deal with a strange and scary situation. Being lost in a forest with strange creatures was no joke. Eric found a stout stick and carved a point with his knife to make a rudimentary spear. Having done something in response to his fear, Eric's heart started to calm. Rather than venturing deeper into the forect, he started to retrace his way out. Thankfully, his panic fueled steps had blazed a trail that was easy to make out.
As Eric walked, he noticed some webs in the trees above that he had been too scared to notice before. As he retraced his steps, the webs got denser, virtually blanketing the up limbs of the trees. "Yeah, I don't want to see what is making these webs." Making an immediate detour, Eric angled away from the webs, hoping to avoid giant Spider Monsters or darker creatures.
Further along, the trees started to become less dense, and the sun, still high in the sky, shined through. With the return of the sun, Eric's heart also felt restored. With these happy feelings, Eric stumbled upon another pond in a natural fold in the hills. This one had numerous reeds and animal tracks around it. Eric approached cautiously, using his spear to beat the brush and scare away any creatures.

Suddenly, two rabbits appeared in the brush. Unlike normal rabbits, who would naturally run and hide from a predictor, these rabbits boldly accosted Eric. Brown with white spots, each rabbit looked to be a good 10lbs, kind an oversized swamp rabbit. Each rabbit had a spur of bone sticking out of it's forehead, making a sharp point. Each rabbit stood on it's hind legs and bared it's teeth, ready to attack.

Right Side of Hell
Albus Dumbledore was sure he made the right choice sacrificing an innocent child. Too late he understood how terrible that mistake was. Harry Potter was not what he wanted him to be, he was not what the magical world expected him to be. He was not a replica of James, instead, he inherited more of Lily. Far too much to be convenient.

Sovereign Immortal (Technically not cancelled?)
New Summary: (Old Summary is below this one) Test Image: I'll make a revised one as soon as possible In the Realm of Immortals, there are two paths to become a Sovereign, both equivalent in strength. To follow the Body, becoming a Supreme Martial Sovereign, boldly refining the Body with Heavenly Tribulation Thunder and daring to face the Five Elements! To be an Unparalleled Lord of the Grand Firmament, unfettered from the restrictions of Heaven, countless people follow this path. Another to follow the Soul, becoming a Grand Spirit Sovereign, Nourishing the Soul with Yin and Yang and wielding the five elements on the fingertips of their own! To be an Incomparable Sage of the Everlasting Heavens, wielding the Laws of the Universe as their own, countless others follow this path. Yet since Ancient Times and bygone Era's, have there not been three paths? A Path which made the other two paths a lesser path? Suppressed all cardinal directions and made even the Ancient Undyings flee in terror and hide! Faded into obscurity and lost by thought, Ancient Undyings remember not the name for they are too young, even Immortals of the Oldest Era only remember it as a childhood legend. Without the Path, the Immortal Realm faces great danger without a True Leader to claim it's leadership and the inhabitants fight each other daily and countlessly all for the sake of becoming a Lesser Sovereign! As two Ancient Undyings face each other, a rift in space is made and falling down is an Entity beyond that of the Immortal Realm, causing waves in the Immortal Realm. The Entity falls down and down from the Realm Above, to the Immortal Realm below and eventually to the Mortal World..... As this happens, a young boy in the Mortal World looks to the stars and sees upon a falling meteor and chases it... The path of a Sovereign Immortal? A True Sovereign? Who in the generation can achieve it when the Rift has caused a change in the Realm, reopening the path? Old Summary: In the Realm of Immortals, there are two paths to become a Sovereign, both equivalent in strength. One follows the Body to become a Supreme Martial Sovereign. Refining their bodies with thunder and daring to go against the five elements. Another follows the Soul to become a Grand Spirit Sovereign. Nourishing their souls with Yin and Yang and holding the power of the five elements. Yet since Ancient Times have there not been three paths? The path of cultivating both the Body and Soul to become an Immortal Sovereign. But as time has passed, who remembers such a path? Faded into obscurity and lost in thought it is but a small dream to those Ancient Immortals remembering such tales in their youth. As the Path is forgotten, The Immortal Realm is in Chaos without it's Sovereign, The Realm inhabitants fight each other daily merely for the sake of a little more power or hope in becoming a Sovereign. But the True Threat doesn't lay with the Chaos within but rather the Chaos outside as foes from other Realms come to conquer them. Yet in all this Chaos, in a World of Mortals lies a young Mortal boy chasing a "meteor" an event which in time would shake waves and cause quakes in the Realm of Immortals.

Escape
Nathaniel has used what money he had to buy a VR cocoon and to pay off the next few months' worth of bills. He has two ways to move forward in life- to find a new job, or to hope that he can make enough money playing Final Escape to feed his meager, human body. He has rolled randomly, as only a fool would do, and finds himself playing a Kobold magus who wields the power of life itself. Hopefully, his role-playing is entertaining enough to generate revenue, because the game is changing his real self... or else, his real self is changing the human-shaped shell he used to wear.
