"Ahahah, with my new evolution, I'm sure that even if I can't be called good-looking, I'm at least better than Help"
H.E.I_.P.Yeah, sure, if with good looking you mean scary as hell and with you mean more horrifying than me, then you're completely right. Have you tried to see yourself in a mirror before speaking rubbish? No? Then here you are http://imgur.com/AdvMUV2
A familiar 3D image appeared in front of me. Sure, as the idiot said I could have used a mirror, but it seem that this body does not permit to much neck movement, so I have to make do with my senses, moreover... it's more rewarding to cheat Help in actually helping me once in a while.
While advancing to the 7th circle, I gained the Lightning magic control, I also leveled up some skill masteries, though not as much as I would have liked, but it can't be helped.
The one who gave the most problems is , I thought it would do something to buff other kinds of magic, but it seems I was wrong, no matter what I do, nothing comes out of it.
It feels like if I'm like a blind man trying to find a needle in a gigantic haystack... impossible, I pity the ones born with only this affinity... unless in the world someone managed to find that needle.
On the road I killed some undeads, but the experience they gave me was minimal, it seems that I need to find undead in the same as me, even with enemies at level ninety, I only managed to rise to level ten.

As I push my hand in the 7th circle, the familiar feeling of light essence came to me, it seems that here I'll be able to bring my light resistance up to -69%.
After I completely enter the 7th circle, a fireball is sent in my way from the distance; fantastic, it seems that here the undeads are finally able to use magic, and the classic skeleton mage decided that I was an easy target... naive.
As the fireball neared me, I created a stone wall in front of me, while at the same time another one rised behind the skeleton mage; from then it was easy, I just pushed the stone wall behin the skeleton a little and it came crashing down. *CRUNCH*
You have leveled up
You have leveled up
You have leveled up
This single skeleton just gave me more experience than I have gained on the road until now, it also seem that it isn't coming anytime soon, it's like the more high evolution tier and high level you have, the more time this place needs to revive you... to be reborn as the lowliest ghoul could have been a blessing in disguise, if not I don't know how much time I would have needed to get out of the 8th circle.
Well, the 7th circle looks odd, the previous one were a plain and a mountain range, this one... I can only definy it as multiple canyons linked together; I need to decide if I want to pass it from the outside or from the inside.
Probably the best idea would be from outside, but I don't have any means to fly, so I could very easily get stopped from the cliffs, not to mention the flying undead up there. The reason I say it would be better this way is because something is screaming at me to not enter in the canyon, let's call it a sixth sense.

All right, it's not like I really have a choice, I can only enter it and be careful; someone once said: without risk, there is not reward.
In the canyon, undeads are tightly packed and there is a never ending fight among them; as soon as an undead perish, others are being revived, you also have to look out for where you put your feet; no one knows if there is the remain of a still undead.
The undead in there can be categorized in 3 types: dullahans, abominations (a mix of a lot of zombies) and wraiths. All the others are being killed as soon as they revive or are being absorbed.
The good news is that because I have been practicing the Stealth skill, I'm able to pass them without being noticed, nevertheless sometimes either by luck or because they sensed me, an attack is thrown at me; so I have to enter the fight until I'm able to escape everyone line of sight to disappear again.
I know that if I continue this way, maybe not today or tomorrow, but after some time my stamina will be reduced to zero, in this world the level up doesn't fill your health, mana or stamina, here once you're exhausted, your movements get messy, this cause your battle prowess to be greatly reduced.
Because of that, I'm heading to the only place where less and less undead are present, for instance it's also the same place from where my sixth sense is telling me to stay away, but what can I do if not ignore it?
Once I managed to put some distance between me and the undeads, the sight that greets me is a strange one; a manor as high as the canyon is blocking my way; whatever is keeping the undeads at bay, it's inside that manor... doesn't that mean that if I can get my hands on it, I should be able to get past this canyon easily?
The only problem is: who was able to build a manor here? are there traps inside it? and most of all, does someone inside this place?

Re-Re:Hammer
Your average Reborn Game System story, similar to The Gamer and Solo Leveling. Written for fun rather than novilization like the others, so it is smaller and less intense. It is set in an AU Warhammer based on a slightly modified version of Warhammer Fantasy's End Times.. So you might notice names and events but don't expect it all to go the same way. And the Main Character is not the only Player in this game~ I'm kind of a catastrophe when it comes to ethic and drive. So don't be alarmed if there isnt an update for a week or three. Or if there is three updates at once. It's a rewrite of the Rehammer that is around, which means the start is mostly the same with some small changes. Chapter 15 is the first fully new chapter of the book. though Chapter 14 has a large addition. You effectively can skip to that and not missing anything major if you read the old one, if you don't wanna rewrite.

Mhaieiyu - Arco 1: El Sindicato [Spanish]
El tiempo se detuvo cuando todos los engranajes de la sociedad encajaban a la perfección. Había quienes toleraban menos, pero aun así, la vida y el trabajo se hacían monótonos en la petrolífera megápolis del Hub. Aquellos con la voluntad para oponerse se verían con una desagradable visita con los oficiales del autoritario y tiránico Sindicato. Y así, donde había ley y colaboración había sencillez. Pero cada década, esta fría sociedad se derrumba ante la presencia del mismísimo infierno que golpea contra sus murallas. Únete al torpe pero intrépido Tokken, un adolescente extrañamente ingenuo que por fín está viendo el mundo por lo que es, así como al alborotado e imprudente Emris, un travieso militar alcohólico que se juega la vida con impunidad, mientras intentan coexistir con la tormenta infernal que se cierne sobre ellos. © 2019-2020, Todos los derechos reservados.

The Errant Otherworlder Watanabe
“In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death, taxes and trucks whom transport men to other worlds.” Meet our titular protagonist Haruto Watanabe, a man who has all the markings of a good protagonist for a generic portal fantasy story. As an overworked office worker, to escape from the grips of crippling capitalist alienation, he had taken up to reading many stories where young men like him were transported to other worlds and enjoyed their lives at a most leisurely pace. Armed with genre-awareness and (what he believes to be) a marketable personality which would make him an easy audience self-insert, he longed for the day the isekai express would take him to his long-awaited adventure to another world. When the fateful day came, where the fair yet harsh mistress that is the fabled truck took Watanabe on one last date to the other side, he was most ready to escape his previous life, ready to embark on an errant so great he’d be most overpowered, his heroics so exceptional and his harem so vast that they would barely fit ten or twenty volumes of an overly long novel made by a desperate author looking for quick cash. Lo and behold however, Watanabe instead found himself in a low fantasy world which lacked severely in the department of any game-like systems, cheat skills or easily charmed damsels in distress. In a setting so antithetical to his established genre savviness or any attempts at power fantasy, how will a man like Watanabe, lacking in strength, wits and courage, manage to survive in a land most foreign to him? This is my first time trying to share to the wider world what I’ve written, and I hope you’ll enjoy reading the errantry of Watanabe as much as I enjoy writing about them. I'll be posting one chapter per week on Sundays, along with extra chapters whenever I get the chance to write more than usual.
