《Lost In the Void. (Monster Evolution LitRpg)》Chapter 1. Lost In Darkness
Advertisement
There was nothing, nothing at all. Where Am I.
I have no idea how long I have been here, but it feels like I have existed here for a very long time. I grow weaker and weaker as the time continues. All I feel is like I am floating in the sea with something pulling down towards the depths. I don't know how long my soul will last in this place, I don't remember who or what I was. It hurts, something feels like it's missing.

“Here it is”??? The Being of pure light said, as it looked at a blackened crystal ball. Looking into the crystallized seal of darkness. “I warned you that the war would never end. You were such an idiot, thinking that you would save everyone. It brings me great pleasure to finally get rid of you.” Light said. The being of light held up a small fragment of light. “When you were alive, we took a piece of your soul. Even our lord said to keep you from gaining power once again, to destroy this part of you so that you may never rise.” Light said. Holding the fragment between the fingers of light, it raised it over a small creature of pure darkness that was locked inside a box covered in seals. “I truly did warn you. My love, but never would you listen to reason, even when our lord told you to stop this foolish path of yours. So this is my final goodbye to you. What is left you with be thrown into the void for the abominations to eat.” Light said.
The sliver of soul fell to into the maw of the small. And a tear in reality opened as the crystal ball of darkness was thrown into the tear.

Pain struck me as I floated there in the darkness. A hole appeared in my light. The dim light of what was left of me had dimmed even more as a pitch black hole was left in the center of the weakened dim light.
Darkness keeps seeping into the hole, eating away at what little light remains.

Tendrils of magic stretched out and caught the small ball of crystalline darkness as it entered into her domain. “Why are you here, little one made of light but broken. I always wanted a child of light, though it is a shame that your soul has been fractured. Because of that, you will die soon.” Mother said. The ball shattered by the pure power that radiated off of her just by her mere presence.
“I may be able to save you, but you will suffer for a very long time because no creature of light has ever lived in the Void without dying. Any monster born here will hunt you and chase after you, trying to snuff out the light that is left within you. So I'll ask you little one, do you wish to live with the chance that someday you will be strong enough to live without fear. Or would you want me to send for the reaper to come and collect that which is already on death's door.” Mother said. She looked down on my broken soul with her warm, compassion filled eyes. Waiting for me to answer her.
I tried to speak or say anything at all, but no words came out. I didn't want to die I want to live, I want to survive. Seeing something within my soul, the beautiful women in front of me seemed to understand what I wanted to say to her.

“I see little light. So you wish to live. I shall give you a small piece of myself to heal the damaged part of your soul. With this you will be changed.” Mother said. She cut a bit of her hair and started to fix what was done to me and sealed it with a drop of her blood which was a deep midnight blue with purple streaks through it. “With this I have made you one of my children, bound by blood but not birth. You will meet many of my children here in the void, you will have to kill or be killed. I love all of my children, but if one dies, it just means that they weren't strong enough to survive. I hope you live long enough to meet me again. Not only that, but I will give you a name when you are a tier 4. Rest now because I will be seeding you to a safe place where you can evolve into a new from which with help you. Goodbye my son and always know that I am always watching.” Mother said. Giving me a kiss, she let me fall from her hand.
As I fell, everything slowly faded away as a deep sleep took me in its embrace.

STR and INT get bonuses from leveling.
Choosing one of these will forever lose the chance to evolve into one of the other choices on this list. So pick wisely, for your actions hove consequences on how the rest of your new life plays out. And know that Mother will always love you.

Dig a Little Deeper
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Being a dungeon isn't easy. Past memories just out of reach, not wanting to be a murder pit and trying to find a purpose are just the beginning. It takes time and several hiccups to transition from being a mobile being to being a stationary rock that changes the word with its mind. What is the miasma right outside the door? What monsters does it hide? Can the people that have found me really be trusted? Now planning to post a chapter every other week. I have added a volume for the maps so they are easy to find. There are spoilers on the maps. Cover art commissioned from Rachel Paizs through Upwork.com
8 195Eyes of Bloodshed
Remdia, a once peaceful country, sends an army towards the unprepared nation of Caledorn. This single action sets off a chain of events that will uproot the lives of everyone involved. A recent graduate suddenly finds himself in enemy territory, struggling to shield his birthplace from angered citizens. A news broadcaster must present a horrifying report while maintaining her perfected poise. A doctor steals an ambulance in an attempt to aid the injured. A student is evacuated from school, while a father tries desperately to escape a prison. Watch the war unfold through the eyes of those most impacted while the bloodshed increases. A relay of short stories where each chapter follows the perspective of one person through a difficult time.A massive shoutout to the brilliant cover artist as well, Snooki.
8 417Polly and Drake
Drake has been searching for a job as a personal guard, but wherever he turns, he is kicked out without fail. It's not that he's terrible with weapons, or inattentive. It could be because of his obvious racial heritage. Or because of Polly. With his funds dwindling, the only remaining option is to become one of the Cursed: poor souls that work for the Dragoneye Guild. In other lands, they may be called adventurers, saviors or even heroes, but not in the White Desert. Here, they are shunned and ignored. Depraved people who forsook their humanity for money and fame. With this choice, Drake may not only fall from grace, but also become one of only a few thousands capable of unearthing the secrets of ancient times. If he could get this guardsman notion out of his head. May contain gore, violence, profanity and traumatising content. Taking another shoot at this writing business. I write for fun and when I have time. There is no plan. The story may change drastically from what it starts out - or not. We'll see what happens. Currently, I'm aiming for a Slice of Life with LitRPG elements at a later time.
8 87The Twin Lands
Join our heroine Enru on her journey in a world where humanity lives in perpetual light and warm while their enemies, the spider beings called Araxin, live in perpetual darkness and cold. Just because they live in the darkness and cold though doesn’t mean the Araxin want to stay there forever however, and this time their bid for the Southern half of the continent looks to be shaping up worse for humanity than ever before. Every ten years the planet nears its second sun in such a way that the Northern half of the continent warms and thaws and the Araxin enter a period of explosive growth, before always attempting to assault the humans in the South. Through events that you will need to read and discover yourself, sixteen year old Enru ends up vital to the survival of humanity, but can she succeed? In a world full of humans, dragons, giant intelligent spiders, trogs, behemoths lurking in the deep, magic, politics (can’t forget the politics) and more, what wonders await you? NOTE: This is my very first attempt at writing ever. Not just my first attempt I am showing people or my first attempt that went anywhere, but my first of any kind. I welcome constructive critisism and I know my grammar is not always the best. If something is majorly bothering you please leave a good comment or review on it rather than just a 0.5 rating and saying I suck. NOTE2: The main character will be gaining power that is, if used correctly, well above the standard for her race however I plan to implement it in such a way that she does not end up being crazy over powered and able to end every fight at her whim. She will struggle, she will lose sometimes and there will be loss along her journey to save her race. There will be no harem and I am unsure if there will be any sex scenes or even romance as this is my first story and I am not confident yet at being able to write that properly. So if you came here for the standard royalroad super OP guy that flies around having sex with every female character he meets, this is not that. Update Frequency: As this is my first story and I am still in the early stages, I cannot say how often updates will be. I lead a very busy life and this is a new way for me to relieve stress. I hope to be able to put out a few thousand words every few days at the least. Enjoy the story! PS. Cover was found on the website thedailybell.com, they did not source where they found it. I rotated and resized the image.
8 76The Universe In My Mind
Ever since Jason Reven became aware of the world around him, he had a whole universe in his mind. It was incredible and he was always interested in it, until one day he tried something even he thought was crazy and it shockingly worked. I will also be posting this story on a few other sites like scribblehub under the same name.
