The group has been traveling for three straight days. They only stopped to eat and get some rest. They had to take several routes to avoid the Scouts of The order. The Order couldn't find Tyndraid's body in the war zone, so they came up with the conclusion that he ran away. Searching the places that the exits leads to was the only thing they can do. One of the exits was, of course, used by Tyndraid and the group But thankfully they weren't spotted and got away. Now, since they got out of The order territory, they entered an undiscovered area which means it's full of monsters.
They had to fight along the way. As for Tyndraid...
Everyone was looking at him with worried eyes. They have been traveling for three days Trying to reach the farthest north region they can reach, but, he ate nor said anything. Between them, he, for sure, was the one who is feeling the most pain.
Unyielding agony. He, along the road, was remembering the scene. The scene where all of The Adherents died because of him. He recalled those cold eyes of Natalia. The people were calling him to save them. Remembered how he had to ignore all of it so he can run because was weak and useless. He engraved all of those in his heart, to never forget.
"all of this happened because I am weak. All I wanted was to live and be happy. all I needed was to feel warmth from a close person. The only friend I had was you, Natalia, Why do you have to do this. Is this what you felt because of my wish?" this kind of thoughts continuously came stabbing at his heart. He knew his wish was selfish, just as the world is. Why wouldn't he give the whole world what it had given to him?

suffering.
Natalia... The second strongest player in the game, only Tyndraid was able to match her, Ashley was rumored to be as strong as Tyndraid, but it wasn't the case. In the game world, Tyndraid placed no one his eyes. No one was as strong as him, Only Natalia was.
She had everything she wanted in the real world. She didn't need the wish, but seeing how desperate Tyndraid was for it, she helped him. In his whole life, no one treated him like she did.
Bullied, hated, outcasted. People saw what was happening to him, but no one helped, they watched with cold smiles hung on their faces.
But... why won't he look at them with the same cold smile?
Regret, should he feel regret? NO!
The Adherents died because he and they were weak. You families died because you are weak.
Weak is what we are, strong what we should become.
"GRRRR" A sound of a beast came from the side.
Tyndraid for the first time in the road looked around; he always hung his face down. He saw a panther that was 2 meters tall and black skin, without a single hair on its body And two sharp fangs that were reflecting the sunlight.
He willed, and his sword was in his hand.
"AHHHHHHH!" he shouted while running at the panther's direction.
"TYNDRAID YOU CAN'T!" Bast said.
Tyndraid ignored all of the cries that came from behind him.
He swung the sword at the head of the Black Panther but it agility dodged it and at the same time, it hit Tyndraid's torso from the right side, breaking his ribs. He didn't cry in pain and got up with a line of red blood streaming down his mouth.
"FIRESPEAR" a spear was shot but was dodged. The moment the spear was dodged the panther found to its surprise another spear coming its way. It yet didn't stabilize himself, so it got injured in the right shoulder.

"GRR!" the panther got angry and started running toward Tyndraid. The group got scared and went to help but was stopped by Ashley.
"but... With my identification magic, I see that it's level 20, that's a 5 level difference" Shalim (the assassin) said.
"he always fought in a chaotic way and never really knew what he should do. This kind of thing must be discovered by Tyndraid himself and can't be taught. He is strong but must face mishaps to get stronger. We are weak. We have stats, but no skills to put them to use. We must learn how to fight with our current bodies. And note that this is not our maximum level or stats."
"earth pillar."
the land beneath the panther suddenly shot upwards, resulting in the Panther being sent flying.
Tyndraid looked at the panther in the air with cold eyes.
"fireball, dark spear, air bullet, earth spear!"
only "earth spear" and "air bullet" were activated.
In a brief moment, a 3 meters tall spear came out of the earth, stabbing the panther in the stomach. The falling momentum boosted the spear piercing power, resulting in it going through the body of the panther. The panther cried in pain and got stuck in the pillar. The air bullet hit the neck of the panther, stopping its cries and ensuring its death.
"Magic reached 0.", "Points added to magic." "Earth Magic Level Rose." ,"points added to endurance.", "level rose.".
"stamina reached 0.", "health reach a critical value.".
Tyndraid didn't eat for days. His stamina went down by the hour, and health went even faster because of the internal wounds he has and the stamina being low.
"our leader sure is a fan of passing out."
"he sure is, give him a health potion. we are camping here."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tyndraid felt like he was sleeping on a thing that is more comfortable than a pillow.
opening his eyes, the first thing he saw was the face that he considered the most beautiful.
He Quickly tried to sit up but was stopped by Ashley.
"you need to rest more."
Tyndraid didn't try to sit up anymore and laid down.
After a moment of looking at each other, he averted his gaze.
"because of me, all of them died, this is not what I wanted." Tyndraid said with tears pouring down his face.
"Everything is going to be okay. I am and will always be here." Ashley said as she hugged him.

8 127A Virtual Invasion
An invasion from another dimension is shut down by an Empire's traitor and the world has a scant few decades to build the strength to resist a multidimensional Empire. How will the world fair when no one even knows its doom is one barred gate away? Fortunately, the traitor has a plan. Maybe with a bit of luck and planning, he can build a force to defend the world without anyone realizing it. Author's Thoughts: What is litRPG (From wikipedia) - LitRPG, short for Literary Role Playing Game, is a literary genre combining the conventions of MMORPGs with science-fiction fantasy novels.[1] LitRPG is a literary genre where games or game-like challenges form an essential part of the story. A LitRPG work simultaneously narrates the story of characters inside and outside of the game-world. At least some of the characters in a LitRPG novel therefore understand that they are playing a game: they are 'meta-aware'. So, while Tolkien's Lord of the Rings is a fantasy novel, a book about people creating avatars and interacting in a Lord of the Rings MMORPG would be a LitRPG novel.Why do I read them? You know, I am not too sure. I love MMOs. I played them, quit them, joined up and repeated the cycle. They are fun! They are a massive waste of time but so are most games. Do I want to read about someone else playing them? Sort of?The advent of VR and the possibility of VR someday becoming so immersive that you can't tell them from reality sets the imagination on fire. What if this could be life? But most stories fall short. At the end of the day the protagonist hangs up his VR helmet and goes to have dinner with his mom and dad or other family and it becomes meaningless. It's like the story that ends because the main character woke up and nothing you read matters.There have been some books that explore the concept of the intersection of reality and total immersion VR. Enders Game is a classic. There were a few others that escape me but they exist, however, the cross between the game and reality is weak.So what if the game was real? The technology needed for total immersion VR is so advanced that by the time we reach that goal technology should have naturally evolved to include several items. You must have direct neural input. You simply can't have a total immersion (all senses and perfect presence) experience without this basic prerequisite. If you have direct neural access, you can probably do neat things like feed knowledge and skills directly to that person. You can undoubtedly do many horrible things as well. Muscles are controlled by the brain. If you control the brain why would you let the body just sit there and rot? A person that sits unmoving for 24 hours a day will have their body whither away just like a coma patient. However, if you control the brain you could control the muscles. On a basic level, this would be isometric impulses, working muscle group against muscle group to avoid atrophy. Taken to its logical conclusion you would be able to gain muscle mass and program muscle memory. The flip side is that you could remote control their body... but let's not go there. So what would people do if it were real? Well, they would probably limit and regulate it since the drawbacks are very obvious. Even if you look at the basic aspects of this you can see some negative possibilities. Look at the Sword Art Online anime. Personally, I think they missed the boat by putting a bomb in the VR helmet. Do you really need a bomb when you have direct access to the brain?So what kind of events would you need to have a situation where the obvious drawbacks haven't been explored? Maybe a society where the advancement of technology has so far outstripped the explorations of its applications that ignorance was truly bliss? Okay, so I had to put in an alien invasion to kickstart the premise, but that was just one of the possibilities.

"Mindfulness? What do you mean Bradley?" I was speechless and I wasn't able to comprehend."You already know Stef, you can understand it by the way I look at you, I'm completely aware of what I feel, we have families and I have a daughter, but nothing will take me away from you. You are my Zweisamkeit, you know what I mean?" I looked at him, he was smiling and it was the best smile in the entire world. and I started to laugh. "I don't speak German Bradley, you know." "This word describes the self-imposed isolation of a couple in love. Their togetherness creates a kind of loneliness around the two of them. And you, you are the only one who makes me feel like this. I can't let you go and I have to tell you, I love you Stefani, more than the word can say, more than anything, I'm in love with you from the first day I met you at your home, you were smiling with your blonde hair messed up, and when you started to sing, I saw heaven. I use this world, Mindfulness because I'm aware of my feeling from the first time." He started to get closer to me and...
