Author's Note - Jesus christ... Tables are such a pain in my arse.... It took me an entire hour to try to create an advanced one and in the end I gave up and made a simple one in half an hour... Well here's the chapter! Also...
*Sound Effect*
"What a character says"
-------------------
This world is destined to die. We even called it Dystopia... The royals and aristocrats are rotten spoiled bastards who only think of themselves... The commoners have to work all day long... The slaves are just mercilessly used for a persons own benefit...
This is not a just world. This world... It's too corrupt. How do I know this? I see it all... I might be a commoner but... I see it all on a daily basis... The royals and aristocrats make the commoners and slaves do their bidding... Wars are constantly breaking out... Monsters are constantly raiding villages and goblins take women from villages but the royals and aristocrats don't care... If anybody can change this world... Then that person is worthy of being called a god.

I wake up to the two wolf girls arguing again... Do they ever stop? I try to get up but I just stumble around... Well I am a damn baby... And did they talk about something called Levels? I've never heard that before... I've heard about everything else but Levels...
Hmm? They are looking at me?
Woman: "We need to find more information about this baby... We need to see his Status."
Girl: "Yeah... We don't know his name or anything..."
The woman goes towards a small necklace on the wall.
Girl: "Are you going to use that? It's a one-time use item only..."
Woman: "What choice do we have? It's not like he can speak."

The girl nods and the woman picks up the necklace and comes towards me with it.
Woman: "Use item."
The necklace dissapears into a light. A weird blue paper thing appears above me.
Name:MithneelEvergreenBody Age and Soul Age:0 Years2016 YearsRace(s):Elf, Demi-godDungeon, DemonBlessings:Pyotr, God of WarHel, Goddess of LifeHeav, Goddess of DestructionKuin, Goddess of the PathsTyolr, God of DeathKinral, God of the AfterlifeRhen, God of Venom and PoisonUlkri, God of GluttonyAttributes:Strength: 1Charisma/Leadership: 0Agility: 1Intelligence: 100Magical Power: ???Usable Elements:All known Elements.??? ElementAbilities:Summon WeaponConsumptionMagicCreate Venom or/and PoisonSummon Familiar
What is that... What are all of those things? I can't see properly... Oh! The weird thing appears infront of me too. One is above my head and one is infront of me. Name? My name is Mithneel Evergreen huh? Races.... What the hell!? Body and soul age!? What is all this!? I look at the woman and girl in confusion. They are shocked.
Girl: "What... What is this!? This is insane! It's very rare to get one blessing from any god! Even a minor one! But he got many blessings and some from even the higher gods and goddesses! And he is a demi-good to boot! A... Wait.. He is a demon... A demi-god Demon..."
Woman: "Oh no... What did I do... Why did I bring this baby out of there... We need to get rid of him now. We must not let a demon grow! Even if it is a demi-god or an elf or a... Dungeon?! We must get rid of him!"
No no no... No no no no... They are trying to get rid of me... I cannot allow that to happen... I cannot! *Kaboom* Wha... The woman... She is dead... Her head is blown off... The entire wall is blown off... Why am I crying and screaming... What is this power oozing out of me...?

Girl: "No! It realized our intention! I need to warn the villagers before it is too late!"
She runs off but I feel something weird... An urge to destroy... An urge to tear it apart and reconstruct it... An urge... To murder everything... And then put new life in it's place.... But I am only zero years old! I can't do any of that! My soul age is 2016?! My magical power... What? There is magic? I knew it! I knew the world had magic we couldn't use!!! But why is mine just... Question marks? Is my Magical Power that low or that high that this weird paper cannot describe it? *Ting*
Gained Attribute PointIntelligence +1
What is this? A new paper? Can I somehow make it dissapear? The moment I thought about it dissapearing it did. I'll have to keep that in mind... *KABOOM* What happened?! The house I was in is gone! It dissapeared in a moment and scorch marks are all around it! What happened!?
Villager: "Run! It's a demon!"
Female Villager: "Grab the children! We must make it out before its power destroys us all!"
*KABOOM* The houses near me... They are gone... A villager just went into one of those... Am I doing this? Can I make it stop? Please make it stop!
I hear screaming... I try to look around me and see a female villager with a child. The female villager lost her legs and scorch marks are going up the parts where she still has flesh... I did this... I know I did this... They called me a Demon and my race is a Demon after all... Well one of my four races at least...
*KABOOM* Again... There is that sound again... How can I control this? How can I control myself...?
Do you wish to put a Limiter on your Power?YesNo
*KABOOM* Another one... I press Yes before It can happen again... All the mana oozing out of me is gone. But the village is already destroyed. I look around and see scorch marks around me and burning trees. I see blood everywhere too...
*Ting*
Gained Title"Murderer of a Village"
Hahah... Indeed I did kill an entire village... But who is going to take care of me now...? I am all alone again... I hear rustling in the bushes... Who is that? I can't see... I only see a dark silhouette of a human being...
???: "Hmm? I came to see what all the explosions were but I find a baby? Hahaha! Somebody must've been desperate to find a new replacement for themselves?"
The person picks me up and takes me away... Luckily this time I have a limiter on... I hope this person can take care of me... I really need to know more about where I am. I need to know more... I need to...
Oh no... I'm falling asleep again... Damn baby... Body...
Sleep...

Author - Hope you liked this chapter. It was a damn annoyance to get all the tables to work at the start. I got the hang of it though! (Finally!)

The Dark Lord's Home for Undead Heroes
Julian Crane seldom cared for anything but his magic and research. When the gods decided to damn him out of the blue, naming him Dark Lord and painting him as a Villain in the eyes of mankind, he moved on with his life, caring nothing about their scrutiny. But their ways are ineffable, and when they start sending Heroes — mere children — to throw their lives against him, he vows to make them pay — one undead Hero at a time. *** Updates schedule: Tuesday-Friday-Sunday The average chapter is between 2-2.5k words.

8 273King given from God
Fifteen years ago, Earth awakened to magic. Millions reached out for their dreams, dimensional travel, reincarnation, cultivation towards godhood, superhero powers, game like support systems. There were many more who never had any interest in the fantastical, but thanks to the drive and effort they had for other things, they achieved much. Others yet, who desperately desired magic, failed even the first steps. It turned out, just like with everything mundane, nothing can be achieved without effort. Join Mathew, who for the first five years effortlessly learned the basics of psionics and fire magic. Then.. grew complacent, frustrated when he couldn't do the magic the way he wanted to, and over the next few years.. slowly forgot how to even light a cigarette or move a cup of tea over to himself. Now, mundane as could be, older and without education for everyday jobs.. he hopes to get back up, and maybe just once, for even few meters, to fly. After all, the greater the dream, the more crushing the expectations it makes you put on yourself. (cover is temporary until snow falls down)

When an ancient enemy of humanity awoken during an assessment, life took a turn for the worst... Until he unlocked the power to refine any cultivation manuals and seized fate in his own hands. Since the heavens bore down cruelly, then why not refine the heavens?
