《Halo: sangheili Walloh's adventure》The last shift.
Advertisement
Oh, this is not good. I'm gonna get killed… or lose my rank, which isn't a problem, I'm not exactly a part of the covenant, just a sangheili who wanted a cool looking ghost, now I'm in debt.
"Damn hairy spartan!"
"What? Walloh are you OK? Is this because you lost your sword so you can't eat your food?" Juilk asked me worriedly..
"No! I'm using a human knife… Why are you asking me that? I didn't even say anything about that" I replied
"Well, I thought that you might be hangry, or you got food poisoning because you don't have a sword to cook your food with"
"Okay… can we even get food poisoning? Based on our mouths we should be resistant to food bacteria, maybe even rotting food because our ancestors must have eaten large chunks of flesh"
"What?" Juilk says confused.
"Nevermind, I forgot what I was upset about"
"You said something about a hairy spartan… hairy spartan? Have you seen a spartan?" The red zealot asks
"Of course I have!" I answer "this spartan was oddly hairy… a hairy demon!"
"Alright? Why would you be upset at this, hairy spartan"
"He's the reason my ghost was destroyed, so now I'm in debt"
"What? Oh, you got a custom made ultra ghost hoping to be able to pay off your debt by completing requests with it?"
"Yes! It was my first damn mission with it, then, half way through, the crappy spartan came in and destroyed it" I say, very angrily
"What were you doing that would cause a spartan to show up?" Juilk asked
"Stealing a abandoned unsc warp drive" I answer
"What the hell!?" Juilk and Red says simultaneously.
"What? What's the problem?"
"Are you damn stupid? Why would you risk something so expensive in such a suicidal mission?" Red asks.

"Huh? I don't see a problem? I lived… barely, but I lived. And it was very good, it would pay half my debt." I say
"What!? How far in debt are you!?" Juilk asked, very concerned.
"Well… 160,000 Gekz in debt"
Red and Juilk almost collapse as I say that.
"You should just jump of this cliff and end it" red says
"OH, I wish I could, but that would put the debt on any related blood." I say
"You have children?" Juilk asks
"Yea, five, I'm hoping for them to become strong sangheili and serve the covenant well like I have once."
"They definitely will, after all, you're extremely strong among the elites here" Juilk says.
"Yea, though I feel like my strength is going to waste here. I may leave to pay off my debt so I don't cause my family to suffer"
"What? You've been here for a year! Though we never talked much, I feel like you're the reason nothing bad Happens here."
"What? Definitely not, all we do is stand around, doing nothing"
"Maybe, but your strength inspires and comforts some of the smaller units here, like the unggoy for example," red says.
"Yea, and you're really the only elite that treats them like equals beside me, Red and a few others" Juilk says.
"Okay, this is getting sappy. Look, I do feel like unggoy deserve respect for their past rebellions, that's why I treat them with the respect they earned. Though, kigyar, where the main reason for one of the major rebellions, there was population tension between the two, I don't have anything against them"
"Whoa, that's deep. Well, what do you plan on doing to earn enough Gekz?" Juilk says.
"I'm not sure, but I'll probably take well paying risky task that any elite under general most likely can't do"

"Are you sure? Even as a zealot field marshal, those would be risky, it would be best to bring another zealot… I would mind joining you, split 75-25 you get the higher amount." Red says
"I would like that, but I need all the money and 75-25 isn't fair to you. You would get paid what you'd get here."
"Yes, maybe, but earning it quickly is what I need." Red says "but if you need help, you can contact me"
"Thanks, though I don't think I'd need any help. I actually taken out a fair amount of spartans within an hour back then"
"I see, I'm assuming you will be leaving tomorrow then?" Red asked
"Yea, I'd like to pay off the debt as quick as possible"
[Transition to position 4, current shift ends in an hour] a high pitch voice says through intercoms.
"Allright, shall we get this over with?"
"Yea, I wish days would go by faster"

Summoner's Journey
[Before you read - the story is officially dead. The reasons behind it are posted in the last chapter.] In a magic world on the verge of an industrial revolution, Ari Ragnarsson must uncover the truth behind his parents' disappearance. They were part of an organization known as the Order, which protects mankind from various threats - both human and supernatural. Now, after Ari's brands finally manifest, he leaves the safety of his village and travels to the continent. Strength is all that matters in this world and he must learn how to control his powers. There, he meets a man from another world, who's being hunted for merely existing. Their fates become intertwined, but not in a way either of them would appreciate. Author's note (contains minor non-story related spoilers about the MC and setting) This is a progression fantasy with LITRPG elements sprinkled on top. The main character is not a spellsword, but a summoner/support mage hybrid. Since he wasn't ambushed by a random god, there's no cheat item/spell and he has to rely on his skills and wits to survive in a world full of monsters. The story tries to show the moment when the old starts to be replaced by the new, with a healthy dose of magic and a little steampunk in the background. Also, it revolves around a party dynamic akin to RPG sessions. No health/mana bars. Numbers are secondary and the LITRPG elements focus more on classes/spells/runes and their evolutions. Tables are sparse at the beginning, but from chapter 7 onwards they appear more often. Still, I won't be copy-pasting the whole character sheet dozens of times per chapter.
