My head hurt so fucking badly. What the fuck...
Feature Unlocked: Administrator Perk System Perk Unlocked: Bearer of The Glitching Perk Unlocked: First of its Kind.
“Oh. I was now in the aether. And also were some pop-ups, shameless corporations and its propaganda. Jokes aside, what’s this?” It approached to the aether terminal.
[You have been promoted to Administrator]
[ERROR]
[Restrictions have been implemented]
[You have unlocked the feature: APS]
[APS let you obtain certain skills to make your virtual travel smother, level hop system has been activated]
[You have unlocked the perk:Bearer of The Glitching.
[You will now be unaffected be the glitching and you may wield it]
[You have unlocked the perk: First of its Kind.
[Your actions have affected the current simulation, bringing to the world a new species. All new members of your species will see you as their god]
“Neat, new features and no more glitching. But a god, uh.” It sighed while reading the terminal. “The terminal also seems to have updated since last time. So now I can make fancy weaponry with the glitching or something like that?” It thought, and tried to do so. Remembering the feeling of merciless death that the angel made it feel. It closed its eyes, inhaling, filling its lungs and then open its eyes. There it was. A claw. A weapon made out of pure lines that defied the laws of the world. It resembled a bear claw, short but deadly.
[Do you like to synchronize with the glitching?]
A system notification popped for it, not a visual one like the terminal but a voice.
“Sure why not” It didn’t thought it twice.
Teleported to another level, familiar but distinct. It looked like the forest level that caused it so much pain, but all the trees were leafless. That didn’t meant it could see the sky, a absurdly dense fog impeded it to see no more than fifteen meters.

[Glitching synchronizing: 0%]
“Cool, a progress bar.” It started walking, not wanting to stay still when it just arrived to a new level.
[Glitching synchronizing: 23%]
“Wow, it goes so fast. But why a notification at 23%? It is a bit random” It was still affected by the ‘near not so near” death experience talking like a troglodyte that knew maths. “Whatever you say you all mighty narrator. Wait. Now that I think about it. I am a god now, right? Shouldn’t we be at the same level?” It asked unbeknownst to the difference between a superior being and a cult leader. “Yeah, fuck you too.” It walked ten minutes more since its last profanity, yet to found something other than trees. “What’s the progress?”
[Glitching synchronizing: 99%]
“I have a disgusting feeling.” It said, and waited two minutes before repeating the same question.
[Glitching synchronizing: 99%]
“Oh you gotta to be shitting me.” It swore again. “Of course, if there is a progressing bar there will always be this fucking number fucking around.
And then the ground disappeared.
“What the fuuuuuck” It cried out loud, falling through the world. The trees didn’t have roots but a large trunk that was larger that the sight of it could reach. It started to speed up, gravity existed, but the ground and terminal velocity weren’t no more. Faster and faster. If this was the real world the g-forces would already drop unconscious any human. But this wasn’t the real world and it wasn’t a human anymore. Faster than the speed of sound, but it could still hear its swearings. “What’s the progressssss” It almost bit its tongue.
[Glitching synchronizing: 99.99999%]
“You motherfuckeeeeeee---r” It said as spinned around the world that consisted of fog and logs. "Why have I agreed to this?"
[Glitching synchronizing: 100%]
Syntonizing... Welcome to the Simulation

The Merchant Prince Book 1: Returning Home
Enter a world of deceit and assassins. Augustus DeCastellian is a member of a wealthy merchant family, with ports all over the known world. He is sent on a voyage to new lands to open trade routes, but when he returns he will need to fight, using his tools of manipulation and cunning, for what he is owed.Author's note: This story is somewhat slow-paced, especially in comparison to the norm on Royal Road. The first three chapters act almost as a prologue, to give you a feel for what the rest of the story will be like. So, I suggest new readers try to get to the end of chapter 3 before deciding if this story is for them.A few of my reviews have said that this story is abnormal for Royal Road. I agree with that sentiment, at least based on what I've read on the site. It was just an idea that was in my head, that I began trying to write once my hobbies were cancelled due to the virus. I found Royal Road after I started writing it. Honestly, it's probably not even tailored for the web-novel format. But it's the story I wanted to tell. Discord: https://discord.gg/sk63gep

Ancient Bones: The Changed Ones book 1 (Post-Post Apocalypse LitRPG)
Is it truly an RPG Apocalypse... if no one can see the RPG? Generations after the Fall, Mankind has achieved a balance in a world it is no longer the master of. But your prospects in this Malthusian world are limited. Johanna Milton and her friends have an answer: delve into Ancient ruins, avoid Changed beasts and mana pockets, and salvage Ancient materials, collectibles, and trinkets to sell. It pays well if you avoid the perils of the Ancient world. But when they find the skeleton of an Ancient, their lives take a strange turn. Suddenly, Talents straight out of fantasy novels become theirs. While they try to make sense of what happens, eyes turn to them, to the four who seem to break all rules. Or are they merely following them? Because, in the Beyond where he's spent 150 years waiting, one dead Ancient knows the truth. Douglas Moore has played those games often enough when he was alive to make sense of the System that rules the Changed world. He can no longer act on his own, but he has access to the Interface. And four people for which he can bring whatever it takes to face the world. Change is coming. The Changed Ones is a slow-burn litrpg fantasy trilogy (Ancient Bones, Ancient Books, Ancient Bonds) set on Earth, 150 years after the RPG Apocalypse... which mostly failed. It is an homage to the venerable ancient RPGs of the Golden Box era, the Baldur's Gates, and many others, offering adventure where You must gather your party before venturing forth. Keywords: LitRPG, realistic setting, low-leveling, post-post-apocalypse, fantasy earth, slow-burn, secondary POVs, female primary MC, team adventure, worldbuilding. Trigger warnings: casual swearing, adult innuendo (no explicit scenes whatsoever, though). Oh, and potentially a bit of politics. Bonus content: a Litrpg Easter Egg hunt. With lots of eggs across the book, some easy, some hard to find. Current score: 6/20 (20 eggs, 6 found) Publication schedule: on hold until September for book 2.
