PROLOGUE
“RING RING RING!!!”
Heard annoying rings and felt vibrations on my desk. I reached out my hand and stopped the alarm clock. I sat and stretched out both hands pushing the air. Wiping my eyes while staring out my window, it’s already sunny outside. Smiled and stood up to take a bath. Stripping my clothes as I walk, I opened the door of my Comfort Room and took a shower.
…
“That was refreshing.” I mumbled while drying my hair. I put on clothes and walked downstairs to eat my breakfast
Mmm, Smells some food! I bet it’s my mom’s cooking because it smells delicious. Excitedly ran and sat down on the chairs of our dinning. I picked up the Spoon and Fork as I stare at Newspaper in front of me. From a distance, my eyes captured few words from the news article. It says “Alliance Online is now ready to play!! Check it out now in your browser and enjoy the Adventure the game offers”. My eyes widen and lips can’t stop smiling.
“Food is ready! Time to eat”
Those words made my head to twist and wait for mom to walk by. Carrying the food that she prepared I stood up and approached her.
“Let me carry it for you Mom.”
Mom smiled at me and laid her left hand on my shoulder. I gently laid down the tray and sat down with mom. We prayed before digging out the food. It’s already in our daily routine. Mom asked a question while I’m eating.
“Seven. Are you sure you want to enroll for college? It will not be that easy you know” She raised her eye brow while asking and took a few drink of water.
“Yes Mom.” I replied gently and hold her hands tight.

She smiled at me and eyed the food in front of me signaling me to eat. I nodded and started to eat.
…
After eating I sat down on my chair and turned my PC on. After waiting I searched the game Alliance Online and a browser game appeared in a blink of 0.8 seconds. The Browser game is well designed. I reached out my mouse and clicked the play button.
“Welcome Player 4799” She paused. 17 minutes had past and I’m still waiting for her to continue while enjoying the thrilling music. Suddenly I saw a small sentence on top-right corner of my monitor and it says Press any key to continue. What the F***. Stupidity strikes again. I reached out my mouse and tapped on the left button. The girl continued to talk…
After Two years
Those are the memorable memories I had with my mother when I left Lactar. My name is Seven Sigmund. What an uncommon name, isn’t it? Even I don’t know what lies upon my name. Mom is a great chef and a caring mother. She filled out everything when my Father left us behind and started to make a new family with her B*tch. But I’m still thankful because he still supports me in my studies and nothing more.
Here I go again, Can’t stop thinking sad thoughts when I’m walking alone the streets of “Quind” the city where I live in right now. Its already two years, yet still don’t have friends. I’m bad at making one. All I have is my mother. I’m already satisfied for what God has given me.
I stretched my hands and reached my headset. Put my headset on and opened my cellphone and tap on Random Music.

Sixth Finger
Year 506. The last human empire surrenders to the Great Majin Lord and joins his cause. As the continent in its entirety is submitted to the absolute rule of an undead stories arise of inhuman creatures that led his majesty's armies to terrifying success. While the demon lord grasps the entire world in his hand, generals and comrades eleven of his most loyal and trusted serve as the extension of his will and power. Common world knows these beings only by their position's names. Fingers. Goblins goblins goblins... I hate those pesky creatures. Not smart enough to talk, but intelligent enough to kill. Well. In this world of madness where blood spills left and right fantasy creatures run rampart alongside crazed devotees of long dead gods all meanwhile the frickin Demon Lord is slowly gaining power in order to take over the world precisely without causing its immediate collapse, our little Gob will have quite a chance to find true strength and maybe even understand why humans often do stupid things for this weird word that starts with the letter "L". Who knows, maybe he will even get a better name than Gob in the process... The story is posted daily in short chapters (from 900 to 2000 words per chapter) The story is NOT an Isekai. It's a high fantasy story with isekai element's at best (Majin lord is a Majin after all). I spent some time to create a custom, magic system I hope to properly explore together with you my dear reader. So what are you doing? Go read those early chapters! The story is said to only get better after you drink it... I mean read it. Seriously. After 15 chapters you won't stop. I just feel like pointing something out. I never read "The Iron Teeth: A Goblin's Tale" which seems to be the first thing my fiction will be compared to... P.S. Cover artwork was made by my very own me (hurray me!) PM if you want something painted (no promises). I sometimes lurk in RR discord.
