《The Man Who Got Dragged Into Another World》Chapter 9: Calamity
Advertisement
The beautiful field now already became a wasteland. Even Luki felt sorrow when he saw them himself.
"Damn it! Now I must do my part to kick the so-called Evil God. Even if I die and go back to The Fallen Realm, I will be send back because of [Immortal Decree]."
Then he clenched his hands. 'Wait, since when my left....' then Luki saw at his left hand that supposed to be severed from his arm already formed. But the hand that formed was like the soil in which Luki was buried.
"Soil, why my left hand like this?" Luki then touched the ground beneath him. And something happened to his left hand. The hand that formed from soil then began to absorb some soil from the ground. And after some time, a perfect left hand was formed.
"Why did this happen? I really wonder if the human was once created from the soil?"
Luki sighed as he walked toward the nearest city from here. Besides the road, he could only see some tree which was already withered. 'I should search some food around here.' he thought about that and decided to look for supply when he heard a roar.
"What was that?" Luki turned to see a beast that had a same length as a truck! Four-legged and its claws were large enough you would think that was a blade. But sadly, the beast attention was focused on Luki.
"Oh, hello there." Luki tried to find a solution to his problem now. But this is a plain field and nothing was able to make Luki hide from the beast. His face turned pale and even his Sense Domain could not work against this beast!
ROOOAAARR!!
The beast jumped straight at him but Luki dodged barely. He felt that somehow this beast was something that he could not defeat alone. And the beast already took a stance to charge at Luki when an explosion hit the beast!

"Hey, youngster! You better escape from here!" someone shouted at him. 'So fast! Just like those enemies I faced back then.'
It was then that Luki could see the figure of someone with a double sword. The person wore a jet-black clothes making it hard to identify the person behind it.
"Even if I run, that monster still had seen me. You need to defeat that beast or it will chase me no matter where I go!" replied Luki. "Really, a troublesome guy will always troublesome no matter the circumstance!"
The person with the double sword slashed the beast with an unhindered momentum. The beast could only attacked madly by swinging his claw around. Luki could only watched them fight while focusing his attention on every movement they were made.
'Every time we move, there must be some minor movement in our body. It is the most important factor in learning martial arts. Raket, you are the one who told me this and yet I could only watch this without you.'
After some time passed, the beast was slain by the jet-black clothed person. Luki could only said wryly "Thank you."
"There's no need for you to thank me. Now that this is where the humanity must stand together to fight against this calamity, we need to at least help each other." said the person. "Wait, what do you mean calamity?" Luki still didn't know the event after his death.
"Heeh? Where do you live that you don't know this big event? You must be living in the cave just like caveman." the person teased Luki but Luki insisted on asking that question. " Alright, alright. I tell you what I know about it. In the War of the north field three weeks ago, seven red meteors came from the sky. And from that meteor there appear the Queen of the beast!"

'What? Three weeks? The time gap is enough to this outsider's beast to dominate this world if I only calculated that the beast I encountered was the weakest. Just imagine the strongest beast possible.'
The person then continued, "The beast that I fight a while ago can be considered the weakest and you are so lucky only one of them appear! Usually, that kind of beast were in a large group and when that happen, one city fell to their hand!"
"So, you said this beast's strength was powerful enough to make a city destroyed. Then where is your headquarter?" asked Luki. It was because that this beast strength was unfathomable that Luki must gather any intel about them and their weakness. And also Luki wanted to get his hands on the strongest martial arts.
"The headquarters is every capital city from every kingdom. I am from Duma Kingdom but was stationed in Kreig Kingdom Capital. And youngster, who are you?" asked the person.
"I am Luki. And what should I address you?"
"..."
Luki wasn't sure but he did not get the response from the person. "Oh, maybe your job can't let you reveal your identity to just anyone" said Luki with a bitter smile.
"Thank you for your understanding." was an answer the person gives. "Hey, do you by chance have some food? I starving now," asked Luki.
The person then grabed something from the pocket. It was a roasted meat and the smell made Luki's saliva drool.

The Path of Ascension
The story follows Matt, a young man planning to delve the rifts responsible for the monsters that destroyed his city and killed his parents. His dreams are crushed when his Tier 1 Talent is rated as detrimental, and no guild or group will take him. Working at a nearby inn, he meets a mysterious and powerful couple. They give him a chance to join The Path of Ascension, an empire wide race to ascend the Tiers and become living legends. With their recommendation and a stolen skill, Matt begins his journey to the peak of power. *** Chapters will now be MONDAY and FRIDAY AT 4:00pm EST. This is a mix between LitRPG and Xianxia. It's like a car that looks like a LitRPG with dungeons and skills, but the interior and engine are all Xianxia. So no blue boxes and clicking +’s to get stronger. *** What you won't see in this novel: Bland protagonists. Bland love interests that immediately fall in love with the MC. Murder hobos who kill entire families and clans for looking the wrong way at somebody. Pacifist MC’s who wouldn't kill a single person to save millions. Cartoonish villains who are bad just to be bad. *** What to expect: A MC who acts rationally. World building that has more depth than ‘strong people 'stronk'. There will be no rules only benefiting the strong and no rule changes as they see fit. An empire that actually cares for its citizens. People who act and talk like real people. A magic system and progression system that are logically and internally consistent. Realistic fight scenes.

But the blues may soon feel like an afterthought, once Julian wakes up in a hellish shadow dimension, with no idea how he got there or why. Forced to fight for his very survival may cost him his remaining sanity. Well, that or the fresh pair of fangs and burning lust for blood. Little does Julian realize what happens in the darkness could have drastic consequences for the rest of earth. And discoveries await that may just contain some dark secret from humanity’s ancient past. Note: This is a story I wrote years ago. It isn't complete, but I had a lot of fun with it. Since my primary focus is on Evil Eye: Hexcaller, chapters will be slow to update. I'm going to shoot for once a week, but we shall see! I hope you enjoy it!

8 237Welcome to the Upward Bound System, V.2
Technically abandoned. I will be reposting an updated version of the story one chapter at a time. When the System came to Earth, it changed everything. It is a grand thing used by gods and men alike. What had once been fantasy was now a reality. People believed and so that belief gave ideas the strength to manifest. "Welcome Founder of the SCP Foundation" It stirred the gods from their deathly slumbers. Stirred by an almost mechanical voice promising them new life, and followers as countless as the stars. All it asked of them was for their help. Help with what though? The old gods, the forgotten gods, and the new gods drew breath, and then made their voices heard. On a day like any other Dante was home from college watching the Presidential inauguration with his parents. Little did they know that this day would turn out to be anything but ordinary. That this was the day everything changed. Dante is not your typical MC. While he has a troubled past, he looks forward to the future. Follow Dante, his parents, and the new friends he meets along the way as they traverse this new system world. However, before they can explore this new world they must complete, the Tutorial. (Please note: This tutorial will be part of the story. Rather than a skim of the information, you will get to experience it in depth. So the tutorial will last a good while.) A much slower style of LitRpg than what you would normally find. Follow Dante and his party as they find their world taken over by the system. Welcome people of Earth to the Upward Bound System!... With the system's arrival so too does great danger come... The tools of your survival shall be granted upon you by the system... Please note, I don't own the art. Please enjoy the story, and if you don't please leave a comment and I will try to improve the story for you. This is the second version of this story, so feel free to check out the original and compare the two.
