Side Story - Marcus Healy
Unlike Rex, Marcus didn't have a very eventful 'summoning' to Novus Mundus.
Welcome to Novus Mundus!Greetings Traveler!
Welcome to this new world. You have been summoned, much like many of your compatriots, to the great city of Evoco! Safe travels!
"*Sigh* What was with that weird God? Blabbering on and on about how Fire magic was useless and what not....Anyway, let's check out my stats again." (Marcus Healy)

"Haha! This is a good start! I wonder how many people chose to mix an Elemental with another race. If not for my need of wind, I would've picked a dwarf or draconian. But I needed a high affinity with both. And a Draconian would be difficult for me. Hmm? Wasn't my Unique Ability supposed to be unavailable? Eh? Blessing!? That old geezer!? Dreams, huh. Heehee....I could be like the Nightmare Assassin! Ooh! Practically a pool of information to rob! Haha! As expected of the Vice-Guildmaster of Draco Vagus! Now then, to establish a foothold for him. Speaking of, when his dad sent me his status window, it looked kinda odd....weren't his affinities out of whack? Eh...like I care..." (Kazmain)
Taking a deep breath, Kazmain looked around at his surroundings. A bustling city with races of various kinds walking along here and there. He also noticed a few NPCs that resembled his race choice. As in real life, Kazmain had a slim build, much like a woman's, however, now he had dark tanned skin, flaming red hair, green glowing eyes and several black rune tattoos all over his body. His angular face had a slight androgynous quality to it.
"Interesting! I don't sense or see any discrimination here. In a world like this, there should be some considerable amount of race discrimination no? This must be one of those rare cities, I bet. Now then, since there is no concept of levels here-" (Kazmain)

"Halt! Traveler!" (City Guard)
"Eh? Are you referring to me, good sir?" (Kazmain)
"Indeed. You are one of the Travelers, no?" (City Guard)
"Huh? How'd you know? Is there something I did wrong?" (Kazmain)
"Not at all, sir. It is just that the city records all of its denizens. Therefore, as you have 'arrived' in this city, we would like you to accompany us to the Registrar and register you in the Travelers Index." (City Guard)
"Oh? The Travelers Index? Interesting. Please lead the way." (Kazmain)
After following the guard, Kazmain was led into the 'Great Registry'. After spending some time there to record his Mana Signature, they let him go with a copy of the city rules.
"Ah! That took about an hour of my time...now what was I planning on doing? Hai! Grinding!....Wait! There are no levels! Agh! What now!?" (Kazmain)
"How about acquiring some skills, sweetheart?" (???)
"Eh? Sophia!?" (Kazmain)
Looking up, Kazmain was surprised by what he saw. A black haired beauty with a smirk on her face was looking at him. Perhaps if it was simply that much, Marcus wouldn't even be fazed. However, the fact that his girlfriend had ended up in the same city as him was too coincidental. The younger of the pair of fraternal twins, Sophia King was the more 'outstanding' of the twins. Marcus had shared a special relationship with the pair since birth, what with being their childhood friend and all.
"Ssh! It's Regina Malum! And you are?" (Sophia King/Regina Malum)
"Kazmain Fragor. Do both of you idiots have a strange obsession with latin names?" (Kazmain)
"Watch who you are calling an idiot! Humph! Anyway, as I was saying, you should work on acquiring some skills. They help in increasing your strength!" (Regina)

"Haa....I'd rather get a class first. Or even a profession. At least, I'd earn some money that way. It'll be easier to establish the Guild then." (Kazmain)
"Ooh! Are we going to establish the Guild in the city? Will I get a high position? Maybe I can enter the Elders Council!" (Regina)
Kazmain smiled wryly at Regina.
"The Elders Council is not something anyone can just easily enter. There are and always will be five elders. They are extremely faithful to the Guild and more particularly the Guildmaster. Heh. If I didn't have certain management skills, then the title of Vice-Guildmaster wouldn't have been mine! Plus, you should be content with your position! You are the Guildmaster's twin sister and the girlfriend of the Vice-Guildmaster! You have enough clout to contend with the Council. Now then, anything interesting enough to garner my attention?" (Kazmain)
Regina smirked and pointed to a rundown building in the distance.
"Before I tell you....I wish to complain that my birthday gift wasn't sufficient. Meet me in the other world in my room. I want compensation." (Regina)
With a sly smile on her face, Regina pushed Kazmain in the direction of the aforementioned building.
On it, there were two words still written in bold, "Summoner's Association".
Kazmain's eyes lit up in excitement.

Hello there!
So, as promised.....the Side Story!
Also, like....a couple of things!
I'd like to ask a couple of questions! (Other than the poll)
1. What classes and profession would you recommend for Rex? (I have a vague plan in mind, but would love your suggestions.)
2.Which other characters would you like a side story on? (This is necessary)
3.How do you like the flow of the story so far?
These questions will influence my plans for the story a bit, so I will love some feedback.
Also, PM me with suggestions on what kind of personalities you'd like the Five Elders to be!
In addition, and this is big. The character, Marcus Healy, is based on a very close friend of mine from college. In fact, he's helped a lot with the story so guys give some appreciation to my friend by voting Applause ;-P

Tur Briste
A Druid cultivation novel. Borrows concepts from Wuxia and Xianxia but using Druid myth and lore. More on this at the bottom. Crow is son of Maddox, a Druid with an ancient bloodline and a people with a story spanning toward the beginning of time. Cursed, unfated, and a heap of bad luck have brought him only pain and suffering, but nothing will stop him. Nothing can stop him. A son of Maddox doesn’t bow his head. A son of Maddox understands that only a man with roots, with something to lose, will fight until the last drop of blood leaves his body. The Draoidh were once a proud people. They were both respected and hated for their form of righteousness. Power wasn’t something they gained through the might of their arms, but through intelligence. Their fall was all the more disheartening for the weaker cultivators. The tens of thousands of years that followed… chaos reigned. They forced Draoidh until most fled to the lower realms, nearly wiped out and exhausted. They went into hiding and became known as the Druids of the Oak. The Druid Order wasn’t the powerhouse it had been, and only nine of the major clans survived the calamity. Their bloodline weakened, as well as their prestige. Even the remaining clans fought amongst each other. Already on the decline and near extinguished, the Maddox clan can only struggle for survival, but their foundation wasn’t a joke. Weakened, but not weak. The other clans will understand this difference soon enough. Tur Briste, the Shattered Tower, awaits Crow’s ascension. Reaching the upper realms is only the first step in reestablishing the Draoidh. The Druids of the Oak remembered every betrayal and grievance, and they’ll return to power and reclaim what once belonged to them. The upper realms may have forgotten, but the Druid Order has not. Please Note:1) This is harem story. There are only a few chapters with sex, and it’s not a focus of the story. I’ll only add graphic sex if I feel the story needs it, so not gratuitously. Either way, Crow has several women. This is in line with Druid/Celtic history, and harems/reverse harems were an accepted part of their culture. Further, they had open marriages, meaning the man or woman could end their marriage at any time. While it was still a patriarchy, women had almost equal power. They were a very progressive culture. 2) There is a period of a 30-50 chapters where Crow loses the ability to cultivate like a Druid so he adopts an eastern body cultivation method for a while. This is temporary, but some people feel it’s misleading, so I am pointing it out ahead of time. I promise, the Druid stuff comes back, and 90% of the lore/myths/creatures/gods are all related to Druid/Celt/Irish/Scottish history. 3) I use many original names, most of which are in Gaelic or Irish. In the story, I refer to this language as Ancient. I enjoy all kinds of folklore and myths, so I encourage you to google those original names as they arrive. I give some background on them at the end of the chapter in my author’s note. 4) I use Ogham runes a lot, these are like the Druid alphabet, and they based each rune on a sacred tree so they also have symbolism associated with them. Again, feel free to google that too. It’s pretty neat stuff. Quick Translations:Draoidh = DruidTur Briste = Shattered Tower or Broken Tower Release Schedule:As of Oct 1, 2021- 3 chapters released every Sunday (May have up to two bonus chapters)- Side character chapters… this might be bonus chapters I release through the week. So they won’t count toward the 3 chapters on Sunday.- Please understand I work full time, have two kids, and can’t spare as much time as I’d like toward my writing. Maybe in the future I can switch to doing this full time, but for now 3 chapters is a comfortable pace for me. Lastly… I very much appreciate all my readers and thank you for allowing me to entertain you!

Everyone is a Superhero! Apart from me
Welcome to Loktharma, where everybody is a superhero from birth. That makes Eugene De Lavet the most special of them all. At eighteen years old, he still has no clue what his superpower is. Loktharma has never been a fair world. There are Worldbreakers who were born to brandish the power of the universe, warp time-space, destroy lands and continents. There are Craftmasters who control the elements and terrorize countries with their might and wits. There are Commoners who are only gifted with power for the finer arts, architecture, military arts, or small-scale elemental manipulation. Even in an unjust world like Loktharma, there is always one constant: everyone is assigned a Flair since birth; the power to do something extraordinary. And then there's Eugene. He's been running around in a secluded forest since birth, training and sparring his ass off. While he can wield a blade better than most at his age, he certainly can't throw a giant boulder using the power of his mind, or turn his skin into diamonds. He has no Flair, no purpose for leveling up his stats, and no idea why General Rizeni Baggardo keeps him confined inside a forest for eighteen years. At least until Lord Pyro—the Craftmaster of Tailiah—unleashes his fury on the forest, searching for a treasure Eugene doesn't even know exists. On a frantic escape for his life, Eugene starts to realize he was a part of something he's been completely oblivious to until now. Along with his companions, Melodi and Azra, he travels the land and unveils the secrets of the world. [The story will be told primarily through the lenses of three main characters, with occasional side character POV chapters. It also draws inspiration from Japanese shounen. So only proceed if you're cool with these aspects.]

Making of a Genius [A Progression LitRPG]
What does it take to climb to the top of the academic ladder? Lexus came face to face with his mediocrity the moment he arrived at Cambridge University to study computer science. There was a ceiling that he could not overcome, an intellectual world that was unreachable. But if you give a chicken an eagle's wings, it will fly higher than you could ever imagine. And that was exactly what happened to Lexus: with the help of a system, he could make it big. Schedule:1 chapter per week (every Friday evening at 5:30pm GMT). The weekly schedule is to allow time for research and factual accuracy where required. Author's Note: The story is about a computer science student at university, gradually improving and embarking on the path to become a world-renowned genius-level expert with the help of a system. There'll be a lot of studying and academics, but imagine being the best in your year. Easily. At that point, academics stops being stressful and starts being fun, doesn't it? The initial chapters are heavy on mathematical detail, but I don't expect anyone to actually read through them thoroughly. It's fine to skim them or even skip them, but I hope you try to get a sense of the progress being made, and feel happy for Lexus when something 'clicks' inside his brain :) As the story progresses, later chapters will go into less depth into individual questions, though I aim to remain consistent in terms of scientific accuracy/feasibility. Welcome, and I hope you enjoy the story!
