《The New World Rising : How to Build a Dungeon Kingdom》Chapter 1 - The First Prey
Advertisement
The first thing I ever felt was hunger. I got up on my feet and started to prowl under the shadow of evergreen trees for food. My pursuit of finding something to eat luckily shortly resulted in success. I saw a hare in a small bush 50 meters in front of me. I did not have any skills yet, but my luck was immeasurable due to the full moon. Jumping on the bush without a second of hesitation, I caught the hare from its ears. I killed my first prey with an instinct of survival.

*10 Spirit Coins (SP) earned
The sentences crossed my mind as if announcements were made just because of my actions. I understood all of them except for the last one.
“10 Spirit Coins (SP) earned”
What did this mean? I tried to imagine the topology of whatever this “spirit coin” was. Just when my head started to ache a little, a list appeared before my big shiny eyes.

Flintstone. That was what I needed for the hare. I figured out that this was a purchasing system, but I did not know how to purchase that which I need to. Maybe if I imagined buying it… I decided to give it a shot.
A small flint stone appeared above the palm of my left hand. I grabbed it and sat on the first rock before me. I gathered some sticks from the ground and made a fire. I ripped the skin of the hare I caught with my bare hands and started to heat the meat.

*Title “Survivor” earned
*25 SP earned
I ate the hare with a great joy. It was not tasty but I did not care about its taste as I devoured the meat. Honestly, I was starving.
I wanted to use the skin of the hare but it was perished. I finished my food and got on my feet to find a place to spend the night. I was desperate to find a place to sleep safely. I found an open field enclosed with different types of trees and a river. I concluded that this would be a good place to settle.
It was darkening and sun was about to disappear from the sky very soon. I did not know of any creatures dwelling on the ground in this planet anew to him. I decided to climb up a tree and spend the night on a branch. I looked around and found a strong enough branch to spend my night on.

He raised his hand and snapped then… Mutation. ... This is my first story that i've written, and with no education in story-writing, please don't expect anything of quality. I encourage you to give me feedback on my work. On that note, have fun reading! You can expect maybe 1 or 2 chapters per month because I'm really slow at writing. Chapter art courtesy of gej302

The Lord of the Opera house (DISCONTINUED)
The Zürtzün Empire. Once a mighty nation, it was plunged into war, completely devastating it. The people of Zürtzün felt deep bitterness towards their former enemies and intense anger towards their King, who they felt had betrayed them by dragging them into a war they didn't want to be a part of. The drastically falling popularity of the King marked the beginning of a war fought within the Imperial capital of Zürtzün, a war of deception and political intrigue with many different parties vying for power in the face of the King's decline. But one party proved to be more ruthless than the rest. The Adlerschrank emerged a powerful party and wiped off almost all their opponents right off the map. They seized control of the Imperial capital and the rest of Zürtzün, placing their leader, the Herrscher, at the top position of power. He was charismatic and passionate and the people of the Empire came to adore him more than they ever did their King. With his dangerous fanaticism, he won them over. He promised them wealth. He promised them power. He promised them vengeance. He promised them a war, one where the Empire would reestablish itself and crush its enemies. With the eastern lowlands under their iron grip and the ever-growing wariness from their snow-laden neighbour, Myromnmiat, the Empire and its cohorts are left at a crossroads. Is it finally to reclaim the Empire's lost glory? Or will war make the mighty Zürtzün draw it's last breath? But deep in the heart of the nation, a poison is brewing. The Opera house, the enforcers of the Herrscher's rule and the exterminators of the Empire's "pests", has been neglected and left to rot. Or so it goes, in the eyes of a seemingly insignificant, but hardworking desk writer. He plans to escape the clutches of the Opera house but inadvertently plunges himself headfirst into the house's affairs...
