《YOLO?》Chapter 4

Day 2
We woke up early in the morning before the sun rose. The master gave us a small waterskin and 5 loaves of bread to each of us. (What a cheap bastard.) It is supposed to take us 4 days walk to get to get Red Sox and I'm wondering how we're supposed to ration out our food.
He hands the five of us a spear and a round wooden shield. The spear was about 8 feet and 5 pounds, the shield was 24 inches in width and about 10 pounds. And without further ado we headed west towards the city. It was pretty have to me as I still had the body of a child.
'Why the hell is this bitch sending a child off into war?'
When we were finally out of sight from the mansion I asked Jack
"Why don't we take these collars off and escape?"-Me
"Did you forget that the collar is magically enchanted and will explode with we try to take it off?" - Jack
'Hmm.. so there is magic in this world... I wonder if I can learn it somehow.
I ask Jack various questions about this world and what is happening. Jack doesn't know much because he is a slave and was sold as a child because of his parent's debt.
I learned that there are many races and species living in this world the kingdom of The Republic is the eastern most country and had the sea on it's coast. The Kingdom of Democracy is right to the west of us and is stronger than us militarily and has very good relations with the elves in to our north who reside in the Great Forest. There is also a rumor that the Democrats got the assistance of the elves so they can finish this war because it has been going on for so long.

Far west past the Democrats is a desert that is hundreds of miles wide and many merchants and caravans die each year trying to get to the mountains where the dwarves live. They are attacked by bandits and various giant desert monsters.
To the south of the Democrat kingdom is the Beastman Kingdom. There are various types of beastmen lions, wolves, tigers, rabbits, alligators, sharks, snakes,and etc. There is the Breor Ocean to the south of the Beastman lands and in that ocean there is the dragon islands. As the name states dragons reside there and only 3 people have lived to tell the tales of that island. Dragons are magical from the points of their fangs to the tip of their tails, they are possibly the most dangerous creatures in the world. Dragons are immortal unless killed in battle. There is said to be a couple of dragons over 10,000 years old and they are as powerful as the gods.
There is another continent to the south of the Dragon islands. It is called the Wastelands. There are many demons and monsters that reside there and that the Demon Lord is a barbaric ruler. That continent is full of raw materials such as gold, silver, and rare gems, so the Demon Lord is probably the richest man in the world.
We take a break as it is now about midday and we have some lunch. I spot something green behind the small boulder next to the road and see a green slime creature. I almost laugh because it looks exactly like the slime from M*plestory but I get hit by it and get sent sprawling into the ground.
I cough up some blood as it hit my ribs and I yell out in pain. I quickly get up and was barely able to dodge as it jumped to pound me again. I balance myself and stab the the god forsaken monster. I stab it multiple times with my spear in fear and it just dissolved and left 3 copper coins and a slimy ball.

The other guys came to me to see what happened and laughed at me for almost dying by a slime which is the weakest monster there is. I quickly pick up the dropped loot and we set off again.

Unlimited Evolution [New]
“If anything can go wrong, it’ll go wrong”—Alex found the truth of this quote the hard way when his Thursday evening was ruined by a blinding golden light. Thrown to war against his wishes, in a world that was not his own, he didn’t even survive the first day. But, death was not his sweet retreat. It was just the beginning. Reborn as an Imp in the hellscape of a dungeon, Alex’s life just got more complicated. In a place where you are food to other monsters and a lump of EXP to humans… survival was nothing but luxury. But Alex will survive. He will squeeze every last bit of potential from his [System] and work his way up the ladder of the food chain until he is strong enough to step out of his prison. The first step to such a lofty goal is to conquer the menace of goblins. Unlimited Evolution narrates the struggles of a young man from earth who gets the short end of the stick even in a different world. After a betrayal that resulted in his death, he wakes as a monster in a dungeon where even his fellow monsters saw him as nothing but food. The story will be a little slow-paced in the beginning and the battles will be calculated, brutal, and short. The litRPG element will be there and the system plays an important role in world-building. I'll try to explore each and every character I introduce as much as I can. Hopefully, I do a good job in that aspect. **I hope you enjoy this book of mine.**

Summary Alexander Weiss, an intelligent and slightly unusual man, always dreamt of becoming a mage. Sadly, reality is harsh and even his best efforts never allowed him to achieve his goal during his lifetime... or did they? One has to be careful what they wish for, lest they might live to see it fulfilled. Description Follow Alex, a man whose pursuit of magic could not even be stopped by his non-magical reality, going as far as to create it himself, only to encounter an unsurmountable obstacle shortly before achieving his lifes goal, denying him all access to these powers. His journey will take him through a miraculous world, full of wonders, magic and manic beasts trying to devour him! He will learn much about this world during his adventures, exploring individual aspects of the System and the various monsters that came from it... or did they? Strong points What you'll get from this novel is the following (read with overly enthusiastic salesman-voice) : • An ending! I'll complete it, no matter what. Well, not "no matter what", but as long as I don't unexpectedly end, this novel won't either! • Good grammar! Might not be perfect, but it's definitely good enough to not detract from the story in the slightest. I'll also fix any reported mistakes as soon as possible, be they grammatical, syntactical or just inconsistencies. • No plot-armor! Or plot-weapons! Or plot-... potions? And no plot-holes! If you see some, it's most likely information that is being witheld for future revelations! But in the (hopefully) very unlikely case of such a vile beast being encountered, please inform me immediately and I'll see to slaying it without grace! (Translation: If you see plot-holes, tell me and I'll fix them) • Logic! [Hidden : Spoilers][Hidden : More Spoilers] [Moved to Chapter [Hidden Spoiler]'s Author's Note] Marvelous, I know! • Blue Boxes! And maybe something more! • Sensible retroactive edits! Not to be confused with radioactive edits! You'll not have to re-read previous chapters, even if they get some major edits. If they were to receive new information, I'll add that very information to the newly released chapters too, in a reasonable way. • Realism! Shocking, I know! Especially considering the tag related to that and the point about "Logic!". This also means that the story will be... well, realistically depicting a pretty messed up world. Don't expect bunnies... at least not cute ones. • Relatively faster paced! No long and boring descriptions of irrelevant stuff. There will be some longer descriptions about important things, but that's gonna be necessary world- and/or character-building! • Short action! Might not be a plus for some, but you won't have to look at a whole (or, god forbit, multiple) chapter describing a fight against the same enemy... • Strategy and hard progression! It's a dog-eat-dog world! No grinding/power-creep! If you're up against three enemies of your level at once, you've already lost! • Understanding! It will be mostly about discovering the wonders of this new world and how it became like that, all while trying to survive. So there will be enough action nonetheless! • Humor! Sometimes dark, sometimes light, always at the worst moment! • Constructive critics, welcome! Destructive critics, nope... I can handle criticism though, so don't go easy on me! Just make sure it's really a mistake when complaining about something. • Will add more in the future! If I can think of more stuff...

8 174Blue Mage Strives for the Level Cap! Adapt!
After being invited to participate in the Beta run of a new Full-Immersion Virtual Reality RPG, Ardacen Winters and 1999 others learn that it is also a race to reach the level cap of one hundred. The prizes are grand, but the chance to be the first players in this new game might be worth more than the prizes themselves. This is a Lit-RPG, a humble homage to all the others who precede it and hopefully an inspiration to anyone with a story in their own head that needs to be shared.
