''Explain right now WHO or WHAT are you!!''
[I am {Minerva}, the Intelligence System that is attached to your Core]
''Ugh, this feels so weird... also, how are you even talking? Are you speaking directly into my mind or something?''
[Correct]
Oh, I see... so... all I have to do is think and I will be able to communicate with you? Interesting. Anyways, Minerva, could you please explain what happened to me?
[Of course. I tried to save your life back on Earth, but it was beyond my capabilities. But I couldn't let you die permanently... so, I transferred your soul to a new body that I created based on your wishes you carried before you died.]
My wishes? What do you mean?
...
...
Are you going to ignore me? Okay, would you at least mind telling me where I am?
[You are in a dungeon, it is called the Mystic Cavern, this is considered to be the most dangerous dungeon in this region.]
Wait, WAIT. First of all, dungeons are full of monsters, or at least that is how they are portrayed in fantasy books, correct?
[Correct.]
Oh fuck, okay, BUT, besides being in a dungeon, I am in the most dangerous one in this region?
[Correct.]
GREAT, GREAT... OH MY GOD, WHY??? I have just been reincarnated and I am already going to die again? Do you perhaps hates me? Oh my God, I know that I am an atheist, but I don't deserve this... how can a human survive in a dungeon?
[You are not a human.]
What?
[The body I created has no organs, not even eyes, I made some improvements and created a body that has no flaws, in fact, you can't even be considered alive or dead, you also don't age, your body have no lifespan, you may look like a human, but it is simply an appearance, you can check your STATS to understand what I am saying.]

WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT WAIT.
AM I IMORTAL OR SOMETHING? LIKE... REALLY? OH MY GOD... HOW?
.... I REALLY NEED EXPLANATIONS, LIKE, RIGHT NOW!
ALSO... what do you mean about 'not even yes?' I can see everything else...
[Your eyes are just an appearence, it's not a real organ at all.]
B-But how the fuck am I able to SEE if I have no eyes?
[You can.]
Yeah but how???
[You can.]
God, I swear... Whatever, sure, how do I check my STATS?
[You can use , a magic that reveals information about what you want, of course, you are still inexperienced, so the quality of your is not perfect, but it will improve as EXP points increase and you level up.]
Oh, I guess I can use magic now, am I a mage or something? Well, let's test my powers.
In the moment that I activated this magic, I felt an immeasurable amount of information flowing into my mind, I can identify the chemical composition of the crystals in this dungeon, I can identify if there are life forms near me and much more.
Well, let's see my STATS...
Name: Luzia
Race: Unknown
LV: 1
Attack: 20
Defense: 20
HP: None
MP: Infinite
Speed: 50
Uh oh... Did my name change? I am no longer Anna Gelato? Luzia huh? Wait, my name wasn't the only thing that somehow changed, my race is unknown, not to mention, my status are pretty weak, but this is probably because I was reincarnated few time ago, well, checking the STATS is very useful.
By the way, I have no HP? WEIRD.
Wait a minute, Minerva, I just remembered that you said that this body has no organs, so why do I have a penis and testicles?
[Because you look cute with a dick.]

...Okay... I wasn't expecting that answer, I thought you would give a very intelligent answer. It seems I overestimated you.
I will ignore the fact that you gave me that answer.
✧✦✧
So, Minerva, what is the most efficient way to level up?
[Fighting against strong beings, using your own powers against you, going through complicated situations and overcoming them and several others ways.]
I expected that fighting against strong beings would be an efficient way, but using my own powers against myself? What do you mean?
[Using your own powers against yourself increases your MP, HP, Attack, Defense and Resistance, because you are in some way, training, this method can be used against the enemy, being exposed to their attacks can make you gain Resistance to their powers, although this method is dangerous a human is doing it, according to my speculations, hardly anything would put you at real risk.]
But my status are so low... I saw it when I checked my STATS, how come I'm not in great danger?
[Although your levels are low, I created your body to be very adaptable and versatile, you will be able to face most of the problems that will occur, you will only understand what I am saying when you face enemies, moreover, you can easily increase your levels.]
I see, but I'm naked, am I going to have to fight monsters in this deplorable form? Well, I am not really deplorable, in fact, my body is very beautiful and cute, I would probably fall in love with myself in my past life if I saw someone with a body that looks like my current, but still, I really want and NEED to cover my body with some clothes, also, Minerva, PLEASE, give me a vagina and get rid of my penis.
[No.]
I fucking hate you.

Her normal life in an asian influenced Victorian era changes dramatically as she gets plunged deep into a dangerous, mystical world filled with secret rituals, horrifying monsters and ancient gods. Follow Yuzu as she entangles herself in the threads of fate to save her friends and family from the dark forces rising from the depths. She must develop her powers as an Exalted, find allies and unravel the mysteries that govern the course of history. The delicate balance that holds the nation in check has already been disrupted. How far will those ripples spread? - Author's Note - This story starts quite slowly, and takes until about Chapter 16 to get rolling. I wrote this to be the kind of story you can really get into, where the world and characters are fleshed out and when the action happens it makes sense and hits hard. Thank you for reading. Update Schedule: Every Wednesday and Sunday at 5PM PST (8PM EST)

8 169Child of the Ancients: An Apocalypse LitRPG
It all started in the middle of Dante's nap. He wanted to sleep his life away, but the system denied his request. Instead, it began to transform the Earth, integrating it into the multiverse by granting everyone stats and skills. He was talented, or so the system thought. And that meant he needed to be challenged. After being sent into a deadly cavern, Dante strives for the future he's always desired. But when he learns about the secrets hidden within him, he's shaken to his very core. He wishes for the nightmare to end until something goes wrong. [The world will end in one year.] Instead of everyone receiving a relatively gentle tutorial, the people of Earth are deemed redundant. Dante makes it his goal to save as many people as he can before the world ends, but with billions of lives at stake, he might have to turn into a monster before he can become a hero. Planned updates (2500+ words): M/W/F. 12pm AEST/ 9am EST. M-F during Writeathon. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Author's Note: All system apocalypse novels seem to jump straight over the apocalypse itself, which I find very sad. I don't want this to turn into a typical fantasy novel in about ten chapters. Instead, I hope to explore the destruction of society and how things would look if superpowers suddenly appeared in the real world. Before the real apocalypse happens, of course. There will be base building, and likely romance once things settle down. Also dragons, because they are awesome :)

Everyone is familiar with the concept of the Gamer - someone with powers that turn their life into a video game. But what happens when everyone has this power? How does one get by in a world where all the superhumans are fantasy characters? When every quest can lead to looking like a lunatic to those around you? Where walkthroughs are a state secret, and dungeons are strategic assets? Well, first, you hide the entire thing and then - you dress it up in spandex.

This is just the weird & random shit it my mind, for when I can remember them and when I have time to put those thoughts & feelings into words, IF I can even do that. Writing is one of the things that I couldn't live without, and it's weird because it's something that bloomed from some things that I now hate. Anygays, enjoy the show.
