《Transmigration of the Wannabe Villain》2. An Awkward Start
Advertisement
As he opens his eyes, there lies the vast blue of the sky. The sky that normally won't as blue as you see in the modern city that packed with pollution everywhere, except when you go to the peaceful countryside though. And the sky that he sees now is cloudless and so, a very magnificent scenery to be held.
This teen, Yoro is the same guy that been shot in the head last night and-
Yoro: 'wait, shot in the head!?'
When he remembers what is happening last time, he didn't have the leisure attitude he has before. And now, he is looking right and left frantically to see what is really happening.
And boy he surprised at what he has seen right now.
Green... A vast green grassland that is stretch to the horizon in the vision. It's a very beautiful scenery that can make many people gasp in wonder at it picturesque and may make some people pay lots of money just to see this scenery even for a minute.
The green is stretch to the horizon without obstacle. There is just grass and grass whatever angle you saw it, there is no animal, tree, and stone that is jolting from the dirt. Heck, there is even no flower and the diversity of the grass. It's all look the same in there
But, what makes both of Yoro's eyes bulging out of his socket is not how magnificent and impossible this scenery, his jaw dropped to the ground because he remembers very very vividly that the last place he was in, is a dark and dirty alley that make it a place with minimum people passing in it.
Yoro: 'how is this possible...' The gear of his head spinning so hard at the impossibleness that happening right in front of his eyes. The absurdity of it's happening can't be comprehended even with his brain that can be called quite smart for his ages.
He stays like that for a minute try to solve the so-called problem in front of his eye until he realizes that stay in there like that and thinking what's happening won't solve his problem in the hand in any way and any time soon.

He raised his body up and wince at how numb his body was because sleeping in the hard ground bellow him for god knows how long. And so he stretches his body right and left until it feels better before start walking to nowhere in particular.
Yoro: 'is the last time I died was a dream...? Or is this an afterlife that everyone is talking about...?' he holds his chin with one hand and the other to support it while walking... That is until he suddenly jolts his eyes upwards.
Yoro: 'right, the sun!'
He looks everywhere in the sky just to be met with the same fields of blue wherever he saw it. He sure enough that this is not evening with how bright is his vision now. But even with that, he can't find the source of light that earthling used to call as a sun. So right there he made the conclusion
Yoro: "This is not earth..." He says to himself while thinking. But the thing he doesn't expect is there is someone to answer that even not so question word he said.
???: "Indeed it's not"
Yoro's body turns in that instant 180° degree to his back where he sure that there is no one even nothing in there before. But what stands in there now is a person who is so humane that he believes in a second the one stand in front of him is a human until he scraps the thought out of his head in the next second.
Yoro: "Excuse me for my bluntness, but what are you?" The use of the word 'what' instead of 'who' is so clear to be heard in the ear of both of them that make it sounds not polite enough to hear.
The person that stands in front of him is a teen boy that may have age as same as Yoro with a black hair and the equal black eye to match it. His skin is white like milk with the face that is as handsome if not more handsome than him. And on that same face lies an amused smile that may irritate every person that sees it to no end, even yoro that stand right in front of it.

???: "I like your style boy, but for your question, I don't have authority to answer it nor you have the right to ask it," he said while folding his arms and raise his chin like a bad guy tried to intimidate someone and failed so hard at it.
Yoro: "So? What do you want from me?" Imitating the same pose as him, Yoro ask him back with a smile that is not so friendly and narrow eyes like he accusing the other party has done a bad thing to him, which is not so far from the truth.
???: "Hehehe" he laughs at Yoro's word like it's kind of funny joke that he made which is make Yoro a bit confused, but he continues the talk not long after. "I think you have mistaken here, boy. It is not I who want something from you, but in fact, it is you that need something from me" as he said that, his smile became much amused than before like he watching a kid trying to outsmart an adult
Yoro: "Hou, and what it'll be?" Yoro said with his eyes being narrower than before while his posture does not loosen as he still keeps his guard.
...
...
???: "Are you seriously don't know?" Said the person in front of Yoro after a while with a surprised sound and his eyes widened while his confusion leaked out as he can't hide it anymore.
Yoro too don't understand what he is talking about, and so he just tilted his head to the side and his brow raised in confusion.
...
...
At that moment, the situation between both of them become awkward as one and another can't understand what the other party saying.
Finally, the being in front of Yoro break the ice with a cough and then raised his hand to scratch the back of his ear while muttering 'well, this is not what I expected'
???: "Cough, so... I take it that you never read a story about isekai right?" He said as he drops his head in shame at his behaviour just now
Yoro: "Excuse me, story- what?" Yoro, as a person that many people in the earth may call 'winner in life' because he has everything that everyone even himself wanted, from a beautiful girlfriend, nice appearance, smart brain, even caring family(that is until he knows the truth) never in his life read an isekai story. While he likes to read book and stuff, he never bothers to spend his time reading a novel.
He is either spends his spare time to study or flirting with his girlfriend. He loves playing games, yes. But reading a novel? No. So when it comes to a situation like this, he doesn't know anything and clueless at what is happening
And the being in front of Yoro, just realizing this thing now, slap his forehead while feeling like an idiot in this whole time. A tired sigh unintentionally come out of his mouth as he stares deeply at the youth in front of him
And Yoro, who don't know what the other party is thinking feels uncomfortable being stared by a man like that.
Yoro: "I know you are handsome, but I am sorry, I don't swing that way," Yoro said as he feels shudder and chill running at his back while imagining inappropriate thing in his head
???: "IT'S NOT THAT YOU MORON!" Finally, the being snap at Yoro while he being confused to himself that-
???: 'How the hell this conversation drive this way....?' the being murmur to himself under his breath while he raised his head upwards to the sky. He has a feeling that this will be a loooong day...

Wildling
Blurb: Silas--a scavenger living off the ruins of humanity--has spent his entire life fighting tooth and nail to provide for himself and his crew. But when a scavenging run goes awry and he's snatched up by an android patrol, he finds himself thrown into a cage and priced to sell as a pet. And when a suitor comes calling, he fears the worst: that he'll be turned into a Domestic, a human lapdog brainwashed into total obedience. Instead, he discovers an equally disturbing truth: that the creatures who stole his world have created a videogame the likes of which Earth has never seen; a sprawling, game-like theme park where humans are the Avatars and androids are the players who control them. And to make matters worse, his android guide is as hopeless as they come, having gotten all of her previous Avatars killed in record time. So if Silas wants to regain his freedom, he'll not only have to fight his way through a world that was specifically designed to murder him in brutal fashion--he'll also have to convince his android guide that he should be the one calling the shots. FAQS: Q: Who are you, handsome stranger? A: I'm Kyle Kirrin, the author of Shadeslinger, book 1 of The Ripple System, published by Portal Books, and I write crunchy LitRPG. Q: What is Wildling? And is it complete? A: Wildling is a crunchy LitRPG mash up of Fantasy and Science Fiction. And yup, Wildling is already complete at 64 chapters, or about 120,000 thousand words. You're looking at something like a third draft here--it's fairly polished, but it hasn't been picked over by a copy editor yet nor has my developmental editor seen it. Q: Upload schedule? A: 5 initial chapters today (2/15/2021) and one chapter a day for the next month. After that I'll probably slow down to 2 or 3 chapters a week until the story is complete. Q: How crunchy is it? A: It's pretty crunchy. I'd put it on the same tier as Ascend/The Land/RSSG, but it might be a bit crunchier than those three? Q: Is this the first book in a series or a web novel or what? And what are your plans for it? A: It's currently a standalone with series potential. Full disclosure: this story may head the way of my publisher eventually, but will be available on RR for quite a while no matter what. Likely several months after it's complete with plenty of warning before/if it's taken down. Q: What kind of build does the MC create? A: Sword and board! Q: Crafting? A: Plenty! Crafting isn't as center stage as it is in The Way of the Shaman, but it's close. Q: Base building? A: Two fully separate, distinct bases, both of which play a major role in the story. Q: VRMMO? Portal? Reincarnation or what? A: This one's a bit tricky. Basically an advanced race has created a game-like world that closely resembles a theme park. Think Westworld but with copious amounts of loot. And the MC has to fight his way through that to earn his freedom. Q: Permadeath? A: Nope! The MC gets 3 lives to play through the entirety of the game world, and death is extremely punishing, but not fatal. Q: Harem? Or romance? A: No and no. Q: Cursing? Blood? A: Quite a bit of cursing, yeah. There's blood, too, but it's not a gory book by any means. Q: How can I support? A: Instead of a Patreon/donations etc, I'd ask that you consider giving my debut LitRPG Shadeslinger a chance. It's free on Kindle Unlimited and the audio is already out narrated by Travis Baldree. It's an epic fantasy VRMMO where the main character gets 3 days of exclusive access to a new game plus a snarky, talking axe to guide him through it in exchange for agreeing to become the target of a serverwide manhunt once the Head Start period ends. Q: How's it similar to Wildling? And how's it different? A. The crunch level is very similar, but Shadeslinger is a much lighter, epic fantasy take on the genre. It's also VRMMO, but without any real world components aside from the first chapter. The MC is very different--he comes off as a bit of a jerk early on and can take a bit to warm up to, especially before his backstory is revealed--but he's also got a talking axe that constantly puts him in his place. Shadeslinger's a much more humorous story in general, and it's a great deal more polished as well. Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoy Wildling!

Dip$h!+s in Space
An eccentric comedy novel (that thinks it's a TV show) about space, and the Dipsh!+s that end up stranded in it. This hyper-self-aware comedy of stupid proportions, centers around Captain William T Lawg (no relation) and his adventures as a guy who managed to afford a refitted soft-top ice-cream truck, in space. Explore the universe with his trusty crew of valiant randos. Marley, the tech-bro, stoner spacebunny, who just wants to get away from his home world and the bullies it harbors. Duffy, the plump and sassy female mechanic, who has had every job in existence totaling far more years than possible. Roy, the frigging fabulous, flamboyant android, and former spy…or possibly current spy. (dun dun, daaaa!) And lastly, but certainly leastly, that other chick the captain keeps trying to bang. Ride with the crew of the notorious Tast-E-Chill, to a world of wonder that a lot of other space travelers have already been before, but probably not Lawg, so it's still exciting. This satirical joke on itself and every sci-fi trope ever to exist, will be sure to either thrill you or disappoint you, because COMEDY…IS…SUBJECTIVE! With a crew of 3-10 and an IQ of also probably 3-10, The captain putters along to uncharted lands, where history, loot, drama, innuendos of the sexual verity, and various Technicolor hoes shall surely be waiting, usually with some form of trap. Each season brings new and interesting crewmen, like: Menace: the adorable genderless frog-child-thing with the heart of gold and the dialogue vocabulary of a slightly trained parrot. Greg: the 8 foot tall, ancient, thermonuclear, semi-retired alien overlord who just wants to prove he still has a purpose…and also to rule the galaxy. Izzy: a 3rd generation, age-reversed reboot, accidental clone of her own mother/sister/older self, who happens to be Greg's daughter-in-law…and much, much more. Prepare yourself for shallow adventure, moderately-to high offensive dialogue, and overwhelmingly childish scenarios. Tag along as the crew battles, fierce enemies, lack of food and survival tape, and occasionally their own incompetence. Teen Romance, current politics, subtlety, dignity, this sucker has none of those, and it darn well knows it. Raise the sails and grab the rails as a bunch of dipsh!+s find themselves...IN SPACE. (Roll dramatic tapering credits, to royalty free trumpet music)
