《My Life is a Series of Questionable Choices》Chapter 11 - It's Dubious
Advertisement
Chapter 11
I am currently enjoying the sensation of soft velvet.
Aw, man this is bliss…
Hm? Movement skill? I’ve given up.
The reason for that is…
The cheapest skill that would allow you to move by yourself would be [Roll] which costs 100sp and is limited to being on unstable ground or an incline before it can be activated.
Flippin ridiculous…
Which is why I thought about using magic to move, like [Telekinesis] or [Teleport] and learn them manually.
But…
Even if you know how the skill should work, if you lack the required stats you will be unable to learn them. Your Int does not meet the requirements.
Damn! It’s like the game is on Hard mode, and I can’t change the difficulty after starting!
That’s why I decided to appreciate the little things in life, such as this soft velvet.
I also think I’ve been taken somewhere. I can barely make out the sounds of conversation every once in a while, but the words spoken are too unclear.
I wonder if I can escape the box life.
…It’s cozy though. Think I’ll take a nap.
Zzz…
Zzz…
Zzz..
How long do you plan on sleeping?
Zzz… huh? Advice? What’s wrong, need me to go to the toilet with you cause it’s scary?
You’ve been asleep for three days, so it’s about time you woke up.
That long?! God, velvet is scary!
Also the ceremony is starting.
…Huh?
Looking around, the room is quite dark, with only candles for lighting. On the ground is some weird symbol in the shape of a circle.
There are people standing on the edges chanting something in a language I don’t recognize.
I appear to be on a pedestal overlooking the room.
From the doors opposite from me a man and woman walk through.

“Saintess! Please I beg you to reconsider this!
“There is no choice… We must summon a hero, or the Beast Race will slaughter us all in time.”
The guy looks like a random mob character. He’s acting important, but I get this feeling he doesn’t actually do anything.
The girl however is quite stunning. A nice and stylish figure with good proportions. Her long purple hair is also quite eye catching.
“But you could lose your life! We can’t trust that Magician who brought that dubious rock to his Highness.”
“That’s why I have come here, to check its authenticity.”
…I can’t even comment on that. After all, I think I’m dubious as well.
The Saintess comes over and sizes me up.
“Activate skill [Detect Magic (major)].”
Ooo I’ve seen that skill before.
After widening her eyes, she smiles happily.
“With this I’m severely relieved. The success of the ritual is guaranteed.”
“Then it was true?”
“Indeed it was. The timing of this stones arrival was perfect. Almost like a gift from God himself.”
“I see. God is surely smiling on you Saintess.”
I wish he smiled at me.
No, staying under the radar might actually be better.

Dominion Expansion (a 4X LitRPG)
Clay is one of the world's top players of 4X games, a genre where the goal is to eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate. He's also one of the only players in the world to so stubbornly stick to the one city strategy, a favorite tactic of his that involves only ever using a single city or planet depending on the game's setting. All that matters to him is winning with his favorite strategy, but earning the respect of his fellow players for taking a sub-optimal strategy to its highest level has always been a nice bonus. And now it is because of his skill and entertaining determination that he has been chosen to represent a higher realm in a strategy game where the fate of Earth and dozens of other worlds are at stake. To the victor goes the spoils, and the spoils include entire worlds and billions of lives. That's how he ends up representing the ascended realm of Hell in a grand "game" between an entire pantheon of godly beings and other higher powers. But while it may just be a game to those overseeing it, it is a genuine war for survival to those participating in it where billions of real lives will go to the victor of whoever wins, and many will die before the game is over. Quick Author's Notes: System inspired by Civilization, Endless Legend, Stellaris, and Crusader Kings 2. Combat mechanics inspired by the Total War series. Slow-paced with many long-term plans. Protagonist has a personality heavily inspired by Ron Swanson. Know who that is and love him? You should like Clay. Know who Ron Swanson is and hate him? You'll probably hate Clay. Planning on writing every single day (turn). Days with important things happening will have the system/game mechanics be the priority of the chapter. Days where there isn't really anything important happening will be more slice-of-life and focused on character interactions. Designed a dice-based randomized map generator to create the world as the story goes on, so I don't even know myself exactly what's going to happen as a lot is dependent on world generation. Tech tree with hundreds of technologies already designed. There is a "harem," but it's not the main focus, the girls won't be cardboard cutouts, and I'm not going to completely forget about any previous women in the relationship whenever a new one comes along. One last thing. The "game" starts off with primitive technology level. The current plan is for the "endgame" tech level to be equivilent to WW2-era technology. After that and war just gets boring until you end up in space. Cover is temporary and made from royalty-free stock images while waiting for the real cover's commission to finish.

After his affair with the High Priestess is discovered, Grandmaster of The Knights of Dawn, Aichlan, is sent to the fort of Arlien along the Elysian border, as punishment.

Aided by the remnants of fallen kingdoms, he must gather an army to combat the Xanavien horde, as well as the horrors Osric unleashed.

Dog Days in a Leashed World
Life is not easy at the bottom of the food chain. And in the Kingdoms of Magica, the absolute bottom belongs without question to the puppy-like lowbie zone trash known as mongrels. Born to an unfinished zone with only bored, murderous outpost guards for neighbors, the lives of these fluffy balls of hapless nuisance are short, dull, and deeply confused. Because after all: What's the point of a mob that no one can be bothered to hunt, in a zone utterly lacking in reasons to visit, in a game that was already the height of trash fantasy nonsense? Well it may not be much, but it's their life, dammit. And if Shh, the mongrel bearing the questionable distinction of smartest pup in his pack, has anything to say about it, they won't be on the bottom forever. Because that's the silver lining of being on the bottom: the only way left to go is up.
