《The Legacy of Gilgamesh》Chapter 8 The Power Of A Demi-God
Advertisement
Rico used half a bottle of shower gel to rid his body of the dark, oily toxins. He went to relax in his living room feeling rejuvenated. Checking the Cradle and finding the bug population rising once more, he tossed 100kg of pork into the centre and then use Authority to transfer 1% of the entire world's sources that generate every year into his body. In this manner, his physique would gradually get stronger with time.
While taking a break to play some games, Rico suddenly felt as though an electric current had hit his body, causing him to shiver all over and lose control of his hands. With a snap, his phone dropped to the ground. His entire body's muscles and bones began to condense after that, and Rico eventually passed out.
Ah
Where am I?
After realizing that he was in his home, Rico took a long look at his room.
He muttered angrily, "Seems like 1% was a bit much." He reached for his iPhone 11 after noticing it on the ground, it suddenly broke as he held it, the entire device was severely deformed, and the screen was dispersed like a spiderweb.
Oh my god
No, no, no, no
"What a shame... Fortunately, I have a few extras."
His strength appears to have grown a little too quickly, and Rico will need some time to adjust. He kept this in mind as he went about his business. To regain complete control, he decided to exercise his body on Mt. Conquest.
Bump
Rico threw a stone the size of a basketball seven or eight meters out.
When Rico saw the size of the stone and his ability to toss it seven or eight meters out, he compared himself to the fabled hero Herculis.
As the repressed thirst for power within him stirred, his breathing became deep and strong. Few people, according to him, are capable of what he just did because the stone weighed at least 30 kg, and to throw it as far as he did was almost impossible.

He then tossed a 5-kilogram rock up to 40 or 50 meters out while holding it in his hand. This demonstrates Rico's growing strength.
He continued to push himself physically to adapt to his increasing strength by throwing pebbles, leaping, jogging, climbing, and even cleaning his entire house. In the end, Rico needed six hours to get used to his suddenly increased strength, and he still couldn't entirely handle it.
After finishing one final round of parkour, returning to the Villa. He quickly showered before driving his Bugatti. Fortunately, throughout the past several years, Rico saved some money; otherwise, life would have been a pain.
Rico had an epiphany as he paid 500 euros to fill his tank. Rico had plenty of time to think during his rigorous training. He had the brilliant idea of buying pricey fruits that take a long time to develop and sell at a high price and placing them in the Cradle. Like ginseng, imagine the potential profit if the seed was planted in the cradle. After one night, there would be thousands of 50 years old and even mutant ginseng.
He looked it up and discovered that someone had spent millions of dollars on century-old wild ginseng, demonstrating the high value it has. After purchasing the ginseng seeds and other rare seeds, Rico was eager to see what could have happened in the Cradle to increase the world's sources to the point where his strength would soar to new heights.

The Laptop Hero (Portal/Isekai LitRPG)
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] - April 2022 Silas got summoned to another world—by a group of kids attending magic school who seemed rather unhappy with the results of their ritual. After a brief glimpse of his summoners Silas woke in the town dump. Unable to speak the local language, a misunderstanding escalated and before long Silas wound up in a jail cell, the locals having confiscated all his worldly possessions aside from his laptop, which had formed some strange bond with him. Now he can summon his laptop at will, and he can view his Status, level up, and gain powerful skills and magic as if he were some character in a video game, which is great and everything, but all Silas really wants to do is sit in a dark room and play games on his laptop. Only, life isn't a game, and Silas needs to get his act together because everyone else is playing for keeps. Or does he? Maybe for Silas life is just one big game now, with everyone else stuck playing by his rules. Assorted Disclaimers, in no particular order: I am only posting this on RoyalRoad.com, so if you find my story elsewhere it was not posted by me. Please do let me know! While I do consider this a progression fantasy, and have tagged it as such, Silas's Status improvements will not necessarily proceed in a linear fashion. His RPG stats will have ups and downs, exploits and nerfs, periods of growth and stagnation. Such is the life of a gamer, to be held under the thumb of the all powerful devs, or in this case a certain goddess devoted to the idea of Balance. SIlas himself should learn and grow, improving and progressing in areas where he struggles, or rather, to show such is my goal. The story is told from multiple points of view. While other PoVs will come and go, Silas shall remain the only lead character. The world Silas finds himself on is not a nice place. Expect him to encounter gore and traumatizing content and bad people who do bad things for selfish (or possibly noble) reasons from time to time. Some characters will use profanity, however due to cultural differences the curse words used will differ from those used in our corner of reality, so I'm not including the profanity content warning. Silas himself isn't one for foul language. No explicit sexual content here. This novel is intended for mature readers, however, and will include mature topics, including, but not limited to, sex, violence, death, and taxes. No harem. Might be an eventual romantic interest, possibly even some competitive jealousy, yet as his story begins Silas is too overwhelmed with other concerns to consider long term plans. Musophobics might want to steer clear of this story. Same goes for turophobics. You have been warned. Keep in mind, however, if my other disclaimers didn't make this clear, I only have the faintest of outlines at the moment. This story will take me where it will. My goal with this story is to write it to the end, something of a long-term writing exercise, with the hope others might take an interest in my work and encourage me to keep at it. I've started a number of works before, even finished a few, but this is the first time I've shared any work in a public forum. My temporary cover was made by me, in GIMP using public domain images. If you can do better I'll happily accept your submission and give credit for your work here!
