《The Two Stories of Frontier Online: A Tale of A Boy and A Beast (Dropped)》Prologue: Meeting the Two Brothers
Advertisement
Shuu's POV:
"Jun wake up, wake up. Frontier Online starts soon, we don't want to miss it like we did at the Beta Testing." I exclaimed, bursting into my twin brother's bedroom. Jun grumbled and pulled the sheets over his head to block out the sound, but I grabbed the blankets and swiped them from the bed.
"No sleeping, come on, Its about to start, I wonder what the Beta Testers set up for us" I spoke with anticipation. Let me explain, The game Frontier Online was a game made from the players, by the players, for the players. It allowed anyone to do anything, If you wanted to build a kingdom, then you would gather loyal subjects, create NPCs, Create and support Towns and cities, Maybe even find a religion if you want. If you wanted to be a daring dungeon creator, you would buy the land, excavate and build the floors, and spawn in monsters as well as drops. But the things I wanted to do the most was create my own type of [Unique Monster]. In Frontier Online, you could choose between the [Kingdom]- The races of Human, Elf, Beastmen, Dwarves, etc, or choose to be a [Beast of the Wild] Basically any and every type of monster that was not supported by the kingdom, (Thieves, Thugs, Bandits, Rouge Beastmen, etc are classified as [Beasts of the Wild, as they do not follow the [Kingdom]. [Beasts of the Wild] allowed you to create your own Mob, even have named bosses for other players to fight. For a [Kingdom] Player, they had to fight these [Beasts of the Wild] for drops and gold that the beast had on them to gain fame, and money for better items. For [Beasts of the Wild] Players, they had to defeat a Player, reguardless of which Faction they chose, and take their items/drops, to convert into points to grow themselves. If the [Beasts of the Wild] Player defeated many adversaries then they have the chance to evolve themselves into a more dangerous beast.

(Short explanation: Beasts- defeat things to evolve/change into a better beast.)
Jun finally stirred in my monologue and he socked me right in the face.
"You talk way to much, let me get some sleep, It starts at 12:00 Noon, It's 9 in the morning, let me sleep for a couple more hours" Jun grumbled and turned over once more.
"I can't let you do that, we need to review over the strategy guides that a Beta Tester friend of ours gave us, how can we slack when we can learn where to go and what to do" I begged Jun with puppy dog eyes.
"Good grief, you think that trick is gonna work on me, You usually play around, but for once your serious, but I made up my mind, I will wake up later, so don't bother me" Jun growled and he proceeded to kick me from the room.
I was downtrodden by Jun's neglect at the game, but I knew he was just as hyped. I sat down and looked over the guides that our Beta Tester friend left us. Opening up the book titled [Guides of the Two Sides: An up-to-date guide to [Kingdom] and [Beasts of the Wild]], I flipped through the book to the second part of the guide.
I proceeded to read the rest of the guide, getting absorbed by their words.
Jun's POV:
That bastard Shuu, trying to make me wake up early, Even if Frontier Online was being released to the general public, I am still not the person who wakes up early in the mornings. I looked at the time which was nearing 11:15. I finally pushed myself out of bed and looked at the guide that [Pierno], the Beta Tester who put this together, got for me. "Hmm, everyone starts as a novice, and to learn skills they would have to either discover the knowledge themselves or find someone who knows of the knowledge in real life, what a load of crap this is, skills will be impossible to learn" I muttered angrily but then I thought, / If the Beta Testers have been there for a month already, then they should have set the baseline for skills that each basic class can learn, deviant/variant spells, skills, and classes can be found out as well./

I then gave a laugh, "Ha ha ah, Since its a Frontier, we all have to learn new things once in a while. Maybe I can create the ultimate Berserker class or skill. That would be nice, without a plan, then playing is meaning less." I said to myself and then the clock struck 12:00, I practically bolted to my Virtual Machine to hook myself in.
"Alright, Settings check, game check, Character creation, hmm, Command : Set Name to: [Gren], Command: Race: [Human], Command: Display [Kingdom Map]" I say in quick succession.
"Map of the [Kingdom] will now be displayed, Select which Kingdom you would like to go to: Coast Empire Seshalis, The Forest Tribes of Oakwood, the Kingdom of the Middle Plains, the Underground Villages." a female computer voice spoke to me.
"Command: Start Location: Kingdom of the Middle Plains"
"Starting location will be in the Kingdom of the Middle Plains, Select the starting village:
Janu- Surrounded by tall grass, Easy to get lost in the grass, sometimes refered to as, the village in the Wheat Labyrinth.
Ocypetes- Large farmlands, main trading complex, From time to time it is targeted by plunderers.
Higal- Despite being in the plains, Higal houses a forest that is very mysterious, Rumor has it that there are treasures deep in this forest."
"Command: Set Village: Higal" I commanded with excitement, Treasures, that could start me off pretty well" I smiled to myself and I got transported into the game.

The Madec Legacy
The dawn of Emotion Based A.I.s is here, John is the fifth test subject to have an AI implemented in his brain, and so far the first one to survive. Blinded by the dream of immortality, the researchers push the tests to inhumane standards. John is obligated to take part in sessions of torture designed to test the limits of the AI influence over the physical and mental health. What was supposed to be a new beginning in life turns into living hell. An (un)lucky twist ends his life. John then reincarnates with his AI in a new world where a System influences the interaction between Magic and Matter. With seemingly limitless potential and a game-like system influencing the world, the hero sets on his journey. --AUTHOR NOTE, PLEASE READ-- I will state here my promises to you, potential reader: 1. No harem! I don't trust myself to make a harem feel natural or healthy, I never met any person who has a personality that can adapt and live in a harem for reasons that are not monetary, so I can't draw inspiration from real life. Sorry!; 2. The enemies will not be bland and illogically mean. Some may feel like that at first, but I will take great care in fleshing them out, trust me. You may end up hating some, but you won't be able to deny that they had their reasons for what they did; 3. I am using a paid (and expensive) automated editor tool, and I take longer to write because I take my time in editing the stuff. I am aiming to improve and I will not shy away from constructive criticism, nor take offense for no reason; 4. Characters will die and will suffer, some will get over the tragedies and improve, others will not be as resilient. 5. This novel has a lot of ground to cover, it is neither a short story, a manual on crafting, or the script of some action scene. There will be both time skips and oversimplifications of some actions for the sake of moving the story forward. Time skips will be more prominent in the first 30 chapters. I will describe crafting processes and fights with more detail if they are essential for the chapter; 6. If I took my time describing something, it's because it is important. I hate novels that waste time describing useless stuff. If you skim over something, the chances are that something in the future will not make sense. I am an adept of "Chekhov's gun" principle; 7. I already have 31k words on my auxiliary documents, I have a plan for the story, and I will not be making changes even if someone ends up noticing some foreshadowing and figures out what will happen. The story comes first. 8. I have a wife, a job that demands 9h every day and courses related to my job (lawyer) three days of the week, it's unlikely that I will be able to do mass releases at all. I will have a healthy amount of chapters to be able to post at least 1 chapter every day continually. Don't worry. 9. I will read all the comments. I will listen to all you have to say and will try my best to accommodate demands as long as they do not hamper the path I prepared. 10. There is an arc that spans the entire novel. Each volume will be an arc in itself while progressing a little bit of the main arc. Every arc will have one or more main antagonists. I think that's it! Thank you for reading it all. Have an awesome time reading my first novel!!

GLADIUS // Eret X Reader
PHANTASM SERIES BOOK 4---Gladius, (noun): (in ancient Rome) a short sword.---Eret perked up as soon as you and Simon walked into the room, a wide and welcoming smile coming onto his face. He was softer looking than his father had been, but you could still see some of the similar traits. He had a head of thick dark curls, and the same sharp jaw that his father had had. He wasn't as bulky though - he was tall and thin - and his face was a lot more open. What separated him most from his father's likeness though was the colorful cape, and the large mirrored glasses he wore - swirling with colors reflected from the room. He stood from his seat when Maven let the doors swing shut behind her, that wide smile still on his face. "You must be the embassy.""And you must be King Eret." You said, stooping into a bow. "Oh, there's no need for that." Eret said as you rose from your bow. He stepped down from the dias where his throne sat - colorful cape trailing behind him - and came to stand in front of you, taking your hand instead. "I'm not really one for formalities." He grinned, shaking your hand. His palm was warm against yours, and you could feel some slight callouses - most likely from practicing his sword work.
