《The Novel's Unifier》Chapter 21 - Keyboard Warrior (1)
Advertisement
Danny stayed in that room, unsure of what to do. Should he have left?
Thankfully, Hector showed up again, carrying a bright smile.
"You have no idea how long I've wanted to do that," he stated, before relaxing into his chair. He seemed to be turning into a liquid, as he slipped down his chair. He opened his eyes.
He seemed to only just remember Danny was there, as he froze.
"You may leave," he said, awkwardly waving his hand.
"Thank you, sir," Danny answered, bowing on his way out.
Danny went straight for the dorms, basically diving headfirst onto his pillow. However, he couldn't fall asleep.
He turned over, watching the source of his annoyance: Arthur yelling at the screen, tapping on his keyboard.
"Could you quiet down?" he groggily asked, lifting his head.
"Not if this piece of shit doesn't stop lagging," Arthur responded.
Danny got to his feet and started hovering over his shoulder, watching his play. Eventually, Danny couldn't help it.
"Alright, let me try." He cracked his knuckles, as Arthur begrudgingly gave him the seat.
It took Danny about three games before he started understanding the controls. Coincidentally, it also took Danny about three games to start winning.
It was a 1v1 game, named Keyboard Warrior. You controlled the character with the keyboard. It had custom characters for every player, which changed based on who you were. It seemed to remember who you were based on your irises, but Danny wasn't sure about that yet. You fought against an opponent who randomly matched with you, trying to see who wins.
But, it didn't seem to be so random. He had fought against the same person for all of the games he played.
Danny took a break, taking the food Arthur had just made. "Thank you," he said, putting it on the desk.

Warhammer 40,000: Mind over Matter
Set in the Warhammer 40k universe, but accessible to those unfamiliar with the setting. The Imperium of Man has been fighting the Long War for ten thousand years. It is a war fought simultaneously across thousands of stars and against innumerable enemies. On smoke-filled battlefields and in the cold emptiness of the void the military might of the Imperium stands strong in the face of horrifying foes. It is not a war fought to conquer new lands, or to seize the wealth of enemy nations. It is a war fought to hold what they have, or to regain what they have already lost. The world of Nova Iberia is far from that war and supports the Imperium by sending her finest sons to foreign stars to fight and die as elite commandos in the Imperial Guard. A chance discovery on the corpse of one of these commandos has cast doubts around the world's loyalty, and has drawn the attention of the Imperial Inquisition. The seekers of the Alien, the Heretic and the Daemon have descended upon this peaceful world, and they will not leave it intact. Primaris Psyker Amelia Lafayette was a ward of the state, now bound as an acolyte to the Inquisition in recognition of her telepathic gifts. Inexperienced, and browbeaten by her training, she must adapt to her new circumstances or fall. If she can navigate the tangled webs of heresy, and survive life in the Inquisition, then she may find the opportunity to prove herself worthy of greater authority.
8 835The Tower Must Fall - Combat Gardener
If you're interested in a conceptual, ground-up rewrite leave a comment and tell me what you loved about it. I've got a pretty good idea of what everyone hated so there's no need for expounding on that. Gardener? A support class? This can't be! What was all my hard work for? Forget this world. Forget the System. Even if I'm a lowly support class, I'll take on the Tower and take them all down! Since the System appeared one hundred years ago, humanity has been divided into three: combat classes, intellectual classes, and support classes. Assigned at the moment of high school graduation, one's class determines their future. Rowan wanted the most out of life. A combat class, an intellectual class, either would be fine. When he is instead assigned a support class, Gardener, he notices the System is completely rigged against support classes. Refusing to give up on his dream of realizing his future by his own terms, Rowan challenges the Tower, the seat of the System and home of the Hero-King, in hopes of bringing the entire System to its knees. Season One complete. Permanent Hiatus, Pending Rewrite. Important notes: -LitRPG fantasy -Rowan is not perfect. He's got flaws, emotions, and personal issues to work through. If you want a perfect, overpowered MC who makes the right decision every time, this is NOT the work for you. -This story opens with a negative situation and an emotional growth arc for the main character. Please don't review until chapter 30 because the arc is not complete until that chapter. (Chapters are short, that's an average RR book's chapter 10) -No harem, no rape, no isekai, no romance -Questions? Please ask!
