- Platform Sector 7 -
"HELP! I CAN'T STOP THE TRAIN!" The screaming voice yells through the dark laboratory. The large 40-inch HD-screen showing the radius of the area.
"Boss, we are getting signals of a monster on the train." Eric lifts his glasses with his hand as he plays with his game console. "Should we go?". He asked in a careless manner.
Behind his back, there sits a young man dressed in a black blazer covering his white dress shirt. With black striped ties hanging on his neck matching his casual pants.
He lifts himself up and walks over to the enormous screen showing a field of the radiuses. He sighs.
"Unstoppable train, monster, and passengers. Looks like a power outage from the demon." His tone acted if this was his regular everyday job.
"Boss do we go?" Sarah chews on her gum as she cleans her katana with a cloth.
"Kill the monster, save the passengers, and please try not to destroy the train. Sector 7 go." His cold voice chills the temperature down. The door of the moving platform slides open as Eric and Sarah jumps out to the air.
"Kiva, we don't have the money to pay for that train!" Hana spoked in an exhausted tone.
Kiva sighs again, "I will go check on them, monitor us." Kiva jumps out of the flying platform and drops from the sky.
- Train -
"Little missy, I was looking for you" A nasty voice speaks as he throws his tongue out. The red lizard man lunges his claws against Alice. "Give it to me!".
White feathers surrounding Alice, protecting her against the rapid speed of attacks. Alice retreats, step by step, looking for an opening. "What is it that you want?" Alice asked in a gentle tone.

The claws increased its speed as his eyes turning bloody red. "The stone… give it…" His nasty voice deepens, becoming cold as ice.
Alice leaps back. – Command : Attack –
White feathers threw themselves against the lizardman, piercing through his body. Dark red blood bleeding, dropping down from his skin. The lizardman falls on the train platform, laying on his body.
Alice sighs, "Weakling shouldn't talk too much." She runs past the half-dead lizardman and checks on the passengers.
"Are you alright?" Alice reaches her hand out pulling the fallen lady up. The sound of claws scratching made Alice turn her head.
"The Berserker Rune!". The red lizard crawl himself up, he let out a scream forcing Alice to cover her ears. His body expanded into a muscular form and his height raising to 7 feet 3. He spilt out black blood onto the ground as he massaged his neck with his right hand.
White feathers attacked the red lizardman. Alice expression changes as the feathers were defected and knocked away.
"Hahaha! Missy, get ready." His nasty voices frighten the passengers. He steps and launches himself at Alice, claws ripping off the sleeve of her top. Small amounts of blood dripped from the wound,
"He's fast" Alice reacted to his speed, barely dodging the strike.
– Command: Protect – Feathers surrounds Alice, protecting her against the claws.
"Annoying, is that all you can do?" The claws become faster and the impact increased as Alice is forced back against the monster.
"Well, that's enough, let's end this." The red lizardman stopped attacking. "We lizardman has the ability to enhance our bodies and you have something that we want, I can smell it" – Metallic Claws –
His claws expanded into metal sharp blades and penetrated through the defensive feathers as he pounced himself forward. His sharp claws reached and scratch Alice's silver hair then strikes again with his other hand targeting her neck.

Alice panicked, although she has Athena's will and some of her memories, but herself never had much fighting experience. She raced through her mind, but in that split moment, to her knowledge, nothing would have worked.
As the sharp steel coming close to her neck, almost in contact and about to behead her. A massive amount of heat approaches them, a burning red aura of flames cuts the train apart along with the arm of the lizardman, causing a pressure that blew them into the air.
– Crescent Nova – A female's voice was heard.
There stands a young girl wearing a uniform with a mini-skirt under the bright sunlight. Pointing her katana to the one arm lizardman. "Ohhh, a demi-human." She stares into the lizard's eye, revealed the mark on the katana. "You are under arrest, so we either do this the hard way, or I will just kill you." Her childish tone felt like a death sentence to Alice and the monster.
"Guardians". The red lizard voice shatters and breaks down as he starts to crawl away from this girl.

Sylver Seeker
After fulfilling the duty all arch necromancers are tasked with, Sylver Sezari was not expecting to ever wake up again. But he did. And after crawling his way back into the land of the living, he’s alive once again. In a strange land, a strange time, and with a strange floating screen in front of his new face. Either through plan or chance, he’s alive again, and planning to enjoy himself to his heart's content. -The story isn’t grimdark, but it’s not all sunshine and rainbows either. There will be lighthearted and positive moments, as well as some sad ones. That being said, it’s a whole lot more light than dark. -This is a LITRPG story. Chapters are published every 2 days at 21:00 GMT. Author’s note:-It can get very GORY. I’m somewhat desensitized to gore and violence. So while the story isn’t full of gore for the sake of gore, it can get a little too descriptive.-The MC is a necromancer, so corpses and decay, and all the things that come with it, will be mentioned from time to time.-I’m a huge fan of Egyptian, Slavic, and Greek mythology, so expect quite a bit of that. That said, so much is altered, you’ll be hard-pressed to guess how exactly it is being used.-Despite being ‘immortal’ the MC can die. In the event he does, the story doesn’t end, simply time skips forward. Which in some cases is going to be worse than just dying.-I love plot twists, as much as I love red herrings and Chekhov guns. Deus Ex Machina’s not so much. Cover: https://angshumandhar.artstation.com/projects
