《Re: Globus Online (Completed)》Chapter 18. Tests
Advertisement
"I want you to... follow me" (Lily)
I shrug my shoulders and walk towards Lily who is standing on a elevator-looking platform.
I get on the platform and we go down into a more lab-like room with actual things that look like they would be used to take tests...
We get off the platform and Lily walks to a console and turns all the lights on and walks towards a huge cube made out of a weird metal.
"Come and try to break this with all your strength." (Lily)
Lily is behind a console and some wires are hooked up to the cube.
I walk up to the cube and simply punch it with a slight bit of my strength and it already crumbles into dust.
"Hmm. Ok ok, you can destroy the pure adamantine cube in one pun... Wait... What?! You can destroy that!? How much power did you put into your punch?!" (Lily)
She falls off the chair she sat on when she was behind the console
"Only a slight bit of it. Maybe like... Four percent? I didn't even infuse my punch with magic yet." (Ethos)
Lily stares at me like I am lying and her arms are crossed and I can clearly see anger.
"Oi! I'm not lying!" (Ethos)
"Fine! Next test." (Lily)
She jumps back on the chair and floats over to a tube filled with water and I can clearly see molten lava below the tank thanks to my vision... Is she planning to dump me in lava?
"Get in the chamber of water, please." (Lily)
"You do know that if you try to dump me in lava I will make you swallow a piece of coal that is still burning hot." (Ethos)
She gulps a little and turns into an even smaller Lily because she curls into a ball.

"I'm just joking! The lava will be like air to me anyways. Harmless." (Ethos)
She opens the chamber from above and I jump into it.
She closes the chamber and starts doing something and a weird drone with syringes comes up to the chamber. It starts injecting the liquids inside the syringes from above and the water changes colour.
Nothing changes for me though... These tests are completely useless and pose no challenge to me anyway...
She opens the chamber after all the different syringes are injected and I get out and heat my body up just enough for all the water on my clothes and skin to dry up.
"So... What's next?" (Ethos)
"Your intelligence and patience." (Lily)
She drags me over to a huge version of a Rubik's Cube... It's not huge because of it's size... It's huge because of the initial 9 cubes on a side split three different times and slightly enlarged to make it easier to move them probably.
"Solve this as fast as possible. Not even I have solved it yet... I have gotten really close though!" (Lily)
I pick it up and start solving it at mach speed to her eyes but really slowly to my eyes.
I solve it in five seconds to Lily's eyes but five hours to mine.
"Done." (Ethos)
She nods but is clearly really confused and very amazed because her jaw is slightly dropped even though she is trying to keep it from dropping completely.
"Any more?" (Ethos)
She shakes her head.
"I've measured everything with those... You really have god-like powers..." (Lily)
"That's because I am a kind of Higher God but no matter... Not like the previous two people who were from Earth and didn't believe me and tried to figure me out, you are actually taking in the fact that I am god-like." (Ethos)

"Two... People?" (Lily)
"Don't worry about them. I think Zeus shot both of them with lightning as punishment aswell." (Ethos)
"Zeus?" (Lily)
"Greek Mythology from Earth. Ruler of all Greek Gods, the god of the sky and lightning. You don't need to worry your pretty head about things from Earth. It isn't your world after all and I don't have a world where I must stay in anymore either." (Ethos)
"Ah... Ok..." (Lily)
We go back on the platform after Lily shuts off the light and we go back up.
"Ethos! We might have a slight problem!" (Hera)
"What is it Hera?" (Ethos)
"The meeting of gods is a month from now. We all need to be there including you. But do you want to go there?" (Hera)
"Why not?" (Ethos)
"Then the problem is... Kyra and Lily. What about them? They know of you and Kyra will follow you anywhere and Lily wants to study you even more probably." (Hera)
"I'll take em with me. I'll take full responsibility for any idiocy they might do in Heaven." (Ethos)
"Oh... Ok... I guess you can take them both with you to heaven... Well, we still have a month till the meeting so we should relax." (Hera)
"Beach!" (Kyra)
"You speak up after such a long time and you only say beach!?" (Aphrodite)
"Any problems with that Aphrodite? Kyra said what I was about to say anyways." (Ethos)
"No..." (Aphrodite)
"Good! It's decided! Time to go to the Beach and trigger that event! I wonder what kind of swimsuits they are going to wear..." (Ethos)
I say that list part silently but I can clearly see that two certain goddesses heard that and whispered what I said to the two others.
"Ethos..." (Aphrodite, Hera, Kyra & Lily)
"And I am officialy out of here!" (Ethos)
I laugh and walk out the hole in the wall to escape the situation that was about to come...
I float to the top of the tower and sit down.
"Hahah... This is the life isn't it... But why do I have a feeling that things are about to go beyond south...?" (Ethos)
I look up into the sky and fall through the roof because Kyra hit the roof with her fist and I wall down onto the floor.
"Oh come on... I was just trying to look at the sky!" (Ethos)
The girls are obviously angered because I ran...
"Let's go to sleep? It's getting dark..." (Ethos)
Please say yes! I don't wanna listen any more... I'm tired from doing nothing.
"Fine... I'm tired aswell." (Aphrodite)
"Same..." (Hera)
Kyra just nods.
"Everybody can sleep in my bedroom... I accidentaly got three extra beds in my own bedroom for a mistake in ordering things..." (Lily)
"Thanks Lily. I was already wondering where we were going to sleep." (Ethos)
"Well... Let's go then. Please follow me." (Lily)
We all follow Lily to a really luxurious looking bedroom two floors below the top floor that we were on before.
I take the furthest to the door and closest to the window bed and already lay down on it.
Kyra comes onto my bed and falls asleep on my bed. I shrug my shoulders and fall asleep aswell. There were only four beds after all...
A damn meeting of gods and goddesses... That is bound to bring up some arguments between gods. Yaay... I can't wait for the disaster in Heaven that is about to come...

Rise of the Undead Legion
Three years ago Conquest was released, redefining virtual reality and gaming. ‘An entire world on a server. Dive in and play the RPG to end all others; explore, create, conquer. LIVE!’ It became an overnight phenomena worldwide. Dave Ruster grew up without a family to speak of, he had few friends and fewer prospects. He lives in the same small town where he graduated from high school, and works long hours at a low-paying job that barely pays for rent and the food on his table. He can’t afford college, but at least he is not out on the streets. His life is going nowhere, stuck on a treadmill. Until chance, karma, or providence, call it whatever you believe in, intervenes. Suddenly, David’s circumstances change. Injured and unable to work, he’s about to lose what little he has. His fate balances where crisis and opportunity go hand in hand. He can risk it all, seizing the opportunity to make circumstances work for him, potentially going further and higher than he ever dreamed. Or he can accept his fate and watch life from the sidelines Join Dave as he puts all his aspirations and hopes, all that he is, into the game he always wanted to play, Conquest! It will be a journey of adventure and discovery, victory and loss, as he strives to create a new future for himself, in-the-game and In Real Life. Author note.

8 159A Gentleman's Curse: Arc 2
Moving forward from his past wasn't easy and the world of magic he has accepted continues to be drawn deeper and deeper into turmoil. Finally turning of age, the Mage Academy and all it holds awaits Damien, ready to turn his expectations upside down while the ones he loves must decide what it is they want in life. This is the second Arc of my series. Find the first part at https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/15983/a-gentlemans-curse. The unedited versions of these chapters are also up there after chapter 27, if you can't wait for the edits, and I will be posting my edits there and here. I'm making this in an attempt to separate the two arcs in the future, and pave an expectation for arc three later this winter. Thanks for your support!
8 166PARTY HARD
The average person spends a third of their life sleeping, or at least, they did before the online game Carpe Noctem hit the market. Now, instead of wasting time in bed dreaming about showing up late to class in their underwear, players step into a breathtaking world of fantasy and adventure. For most users, it is a dream come true. For players like MaxDamage24 and his sidekick Kirabell, it will become something else. When one of the Noctem’s creators is fired over “creative differences,” he sets into motion a plan to send the system crashing down. To stop it, Max and Kira will have to gather their friends and embark on a quest that will push them to their limits. Together they’ll face creepy dungeons, impossible bosses and their own nightmares, all while doing their best to stay alive. The only question is, will they be the same afterward? One thing’s for sure - if they want to survive, they’re gonna have to Party Hard. PARTY HARD is available now on Amazon, BUY A COPY OR LEAVE A REVIEW NOTES: PARTY HARD is a fast-paced GameLIT story with light LitRPG elements, which means that, while character stats matter, the fiction focuses more on the story, characters and actual gameplay than it does on leveling up.
