"Now that you know more or less who not to cross or who might target you later let's tell you how and why it came to be. It is known that hell was not a part of the system and in a way still isn't, i don't know how the system came to be or where the souls come from but what i do know is that our souls are not like the ones cared for in the system, not only about not being able to grow stronger by ourselves but our souls, as i'm sure you've seen, are like marbles, solid...ish and the souls of other beings are like fountains of energy, as you may or may not have seen in your way down here."
"Yeah... saw a bunch of them, when coming, thought there was another kind too..."
"Whatever brought you here right?"
"Yeah, it was like some impenetrable void..."
"Don't worry about that too much, it's above our pay grade. Now the thing is that mortal souls also have some kind of core, different than our's, but still. It radiates energy, but throughout their existence some of that energy is constantly being attached to that core of theirs, it's refined, purer than the stuff that actually comes out, and as they live their lives and experience things, it makes them into who they are, their memories, personality, experiences and quirks, it's a construct made from energy into their own soul using that core as the base, and the system is a construct that regulates that kind of thing somehow, now imagine what a surprise to the system when, as good a day as any other, one of that souls stops emitting energy. It suddenly condenses, turning neutral, and simply manages to exist and gain sapience in a form independent of the system, and that's not all, no, to make itself stronger and gain the energy every soul needs to grow it starts predating the 'tame' souls the system itself feeds off of. As you can imagine it was probably not very happy with that soul so it destroyed it, but that was not the end, if it was we wouldn't be having this conversation, no, more souls keep turning, souls that until then were no different than any other were turning without rhyme or reason, so it keept hunting them, destroying them, now for some reason the way it uses to reincarnate souls just oh so happens to get rid of all the accumulation that soul made in it's last life so it had it's pets spread across worlds and realities to find them, labeling them as evil to the reincarnated, those turned were prosecuted and hated by everyone until they were destroyed. Until, one day, someone turned, not someone normal of course, someone powerful, really powerful, powerful enough that it's pets were not able to get rid of him, one being can't win against a coallition of such power, of course, but it was strong enough, and smart enough, to hide, hide somewhere even the system could not find him or reach him, somewhere outside the limits of the system. Where do you think it was?"

"Somewhere even the system could not reach..." System limit ahead... "Out there? Where the souls reappear after their body dies?"
"DING DING DING! BIG PRIZE FOR THE NAKED ONE!"
"And that one was pride right? He made the pact making and the first pact to allow every turned a place?"
"Nope, he wasn't pride, he was 'hell-bent' on destroying the system and made hell to gather an army with which to march against it. No one knows what happened to him, or at least no one here, all that we know is that he dissapeared, then pride took over, made the first pact, and we were tolerated from then on and sent here."

Only Villains Do That
While waiting on an Akihabara train platform one day, ordinary high schooler Yoshi Shinonome was suddenly plucked from his normal life in Japan and whisked away by a beautiful goddess to Ephemera, a world of magic and adventure, to serve as her Hero and drive back the evil Dark Lord. This is not his story. Standing nearby at the moment Yoshi was isekai'd was a man named Seiji - a rude, cranky, misanthropic musician who was not at all pleased to find himself also snatched up and transported to Ephemera by the goddess's wicked sister, Virya. According to this self-proclaimed Goddess of Evil, the whole fantasy adventure thing was a game she and her sister played to stave off the boredom of immortality, and since the good goddess, Sanora, had picked her Hero...well, Virya needed a Dark Lord. A grown man with his own career and ambitions, Seiji has no interest in playing. Unfortunately for him, the call to adventure was not a request. Now, he must conquer Ephemera and defeat the Hero...or Virya promises to make him beg for the release of death before granting it. Playing along for his own survival, Seiji nonetheless is under no illusions who his true enemy is, and it's not the naive young would-be Hero from his own world. Placed in an impossible position, Seiji must make enough progress toward world domination to keep his sadistic patron goddess off his back, but not so much that he can't strike an accord with the forces of Good and convince the Hero Yoshi that it's the goddesses who are their mutual enemy. Forced to embrace Evil without being too evil, Seiji walks the razor's edge, building his forces and biding his time till he can get revenge on the goddesses and be free of them, his only certainty that he will not be getting out of this with his hands clean. A Dark Lord's gotta do what a Dark Lord's gotta do. Updates Tuesday and Friday. Most Patreon tiers get to read one chapter in advance of the public release!

Not to mention the prison’s original inhabitants - the most dangerous criminals in all of America. Faced with overwhelming odds, his only hope of victory lies in using every dirty trick in the book. Luckily for him, as the self-proclaimed best thief in the world, his bag of tricks runs deep. ............ Hi Everyone, If you want to learn a little bit more about the book before deciding whether to read it, I've included a bullet point list of some of the things that the story features: -A strong but not overpowered protagonist. -Magic -Characters that make reasonable decisions and have more personality than a box of cardboard. -A standard litrpg progression with plenty of level ups and blue screens. -A highly customizable Skill system. For example, with enough Skill Points, Mana Bolt can be upgraded to shoot out multiple orbs at once, follow targets to become undodgeable, or simply hit harder. Anything is possible with the right combination of Skill Paths. -Interesting fight scenes -A morally grey main character. They’re not mustache-twirling levels of evil, but they’re no stranger to crime. -The apocalypse -Frequent updates

Dark Matter
In the year 2023, scientists investigating the nature of dark matter caused a blackout throughout the entire world of Coranth. With this blackout came the appearance of supernatural and near-magical elemental abilities able to be wielded by all. By harnessing the dark matter in the environment, even ordinary humans now accessed powers that would have been deemed fantasy. These abilities include Wind, Fire, Lightning, Water, and Terra, being the five natural elements of which dark matter is absorbed by the planet itself. Additionally, the two moons orbiting Coranth offer the "Superior" elements of Dark and Light. The year is now 2041, and Dark Matter will follow the story of an adolescent boy named Raiden Sullivan in a dystopian future, 16 years old, eldest of 2, and son to Marcus Sullivan. Raiden is an intelligent young man belonging to a poor family with an absentee mother. He partakes in daily chores to cover living expenses after school and his home life is surrounded by his caring father and younger sister. In truth, this is my take on urban fantasy with slight LitRPG that keeps the "magic" elements somewhat scientific for a more realistic story. In using the dark matter surrounding our universe, humans can now harness elemental abilities as well as absorb dark matter from the beasts/monsters to further strengthen their abilities. For the most part, that'll be the main premise of the power system. Full transparency, this will be the first story I write and also the first story I publish, so please be patient with me. For some context, I'm an avid reader and after 4 or so years of only consuming, I feel that it might be time to try my hand at writing instead. Please feel free to add your opinions and criticism, it would be much appreciated. With that said, I hope you enjoy Dark Matter!
