🥀
i rested my head on the wall, i was so tired
suddenly my stomach grumbled, man...im hungry
ill have to get to the music room in a minute, we'll all be able to eat and drink, that'll be good
i could hear zombies groaning from outside, i sighed, I'll have to run more, gosh why couldn't i have been sent to a different kdrama? why one that requires so much energy?
i started climbing the pipes, I don't remember what floor the music room was in, but I can just avoid zombies to the best of my abilities if im on the wrong floor
i reach what i think is the right floor, there weren't audible footsteps or groaning so i opened the vent, i peeked around and saw a couple zombies, it wasn't many but still enough to cause serious damage
i stepped out quietly, phone in hand, at this point the phone shouldn't work, so there's no point in trying
i still kept it close, it's not w good weapon but i could smash it on a head if needed
i walked quietly until the phone slipped in my hand, i caught it but froze when i heard the slight cracking of bones behind me
i gulped and turned around to look, looking a zombie right in the eye
fucking hell, i quickly started running, as i heard it chase after me, gaining the attention of two other ones
i make it to the music room, and slammed the door shut, now i just had to wait...
i walked to the small storage room and scanned through the different foods and drinks, i grabbed a soda and a random snack, i sat down and ate, maybe it was just the fact i hadn't ate in what felt like forever, but this was so good
i went back into the classroom and sat on a chair, with the phone next to me, it almost felt like i was early to school, and there were totally weren't any zombies outside

i sighed, i opened the phone and snooped through it, i had nothing better to do anyway, i looked through their photos and couldn't recognize who it was, it's just some random people, so boring
i waited and waited, until finally the drone entered through the window
i waved at it and went back to my food, they were probably jumping and screaming out of relief, but i can't hear them so i don't care, it left shortly after and i blew it a kiss as it left, for fun
at least i know we only have about a day and a half until we can leave
i laid my head down on the table infront of me and closed my eyes, i was so bored, but they should be here soon
how did cheongsan do this? this is incredibly boring, i guess nayeon too, she was here longer
around 15 minutes later i could hear the speakers and the others talking
"is it working?" "it should be" "it stinks in here" i laughed at them
"y/n! you can hear us right? i don't know i asked that, you can't respond, um, we're gonna be there soon, so hang in there!" suhyeok's voice was obviously trembling, i wonder if he's okay "sorry we left you in there...it was kind of a ass move" cheongsan said
"its fine" i said outloud, even though they couldn't hear me
"you better be unharmed in there!" onjo said "I'll beat you up, seriously"
i definitely wouldn't want one of her kicks...they look like they seriously hurt
they said bye and they messed around with the sound and where it will be heard, i sat, waiting
i could hear the music playing in the halls, so they should be here in like, 2 minutes
i sat there until the doors slammed open and incame everyone, i stood up and they all sighed in relief upon seeing me, but suhyeok ran to me and engulfed me in a tight hug

i was taken off guard and almost fell backwards, i hugged him back
"someone missed me" i laughed "i was so worried when we left, i have no idea why i left, I'm so sorry, ill promise to protect you from now onward" suhyeok held me tighter
i swear if he held any tighter my bones would crush, he hesitately let go after a bit, feeling embarrassed as it went silent
my gaze instantly went to namra and i walked to her, i grabbed ahold of her hand and whispered to her "are you okay?" she nodded slowly "why?" she whispered back
i gestured to her arm and she looked down "im sorry" she said suddenly "hey, it's okay, it happens, you're perfectly fine" i tried to reassure her
"no, i was bit" she said a little loudly, causing everyone back suhyeok to look at us
"what?" a few of them said insync
"I'll... I'll leave" she said but i held tightly into her hand "no you're not" i said
"gwinam bit her, but it was weird, he was bleeding and he looked like a zombie, but he acted normal" suhyeok said
"i saw gwinam when i left, i watched him get bit, but he's not a full zombie, so she's fine" i defended her
"if he bit her then she'll turn in a half one?" i nodded at gyeongsu's question, truthfully hambies only appeared if the person bit has a strong will to live, but I can't outright say that, i can't imagine what gwinam's is now that i was the one who pushed him... maybe he wants to kill me instead
"then if she's half she'll still want to bite us! gwinam bit her, she'll do the same to us!" jimin said, giving her a dirty look
"but won't we just turn into half zombies too?" daesu said "it won't be dangerous?" jimin rolled her eyes "being half still isn't good! do you want to eat people?!" daesu shook his head "good point"
"she'll stick with me! she'll be perfectly fine, she won't eat you guys, we're all friends" i said
"i don't consider a zombie as a friend" i rolled my eyes at jimin's statement "then don't! we're fine without you"
jimin was upset but didn't say anything else
"are we...sure we can trust her?" nayeon quietly said
"if you don't trust her, then here" i took a piece of cloth from a table and tied our hands together "if she bites someone, it'll be me, we'll sit by the window and if she tries anything ill throw her out" it was obviously a lie, i would never!
"are you okay with that?" i asked her and she nodded
"there, you guys go on about your plan and we'll be over here" i walked to the window and sat down with her next to me
"by the way, if you guys are hungry theres food in the storage room, also put it in bags so when we leave we still have it" they nodded and a few went into the room to pass out food and drinks
everyone else was silent or doing their own thing
"you didn't have to do this" namra whispered "I could've left" i patted her back "it's fine, you're my friend, ill do anything for you"
"friend..." she sounded sad, i leaned my head on her shoulder and we went silent, aside from the munching from the others
i almost forgot what was happening as relaxed on namra's shoulder
"i really like you, namra" i said as my eyes closed and she froze "you're so pretty, and such a good person"
"i..." she was too stunned to speak
"really pretty..." i yawned, i could really fall asleep now
i could hear hyoryung talking to the camara at this point, i drowned it out and napped on namra's shoulder, i was tired for the events of today, so i deserved a nap
we only had a little longer until we went to the rooftop, and hopefully out of here

Viridescent Core
Some mortals see dungeons as a plague to destroy. Some mortals see dungeons as a resource to manage and harvest. Some mortals see dungeons as a place to train and advance. However, all of them agree on something. Dungeons are unnatural and deadly. Places where death stalks every corner and monsters thrive. What mortals forget, in their hubris of tools and civilizations, is that Mother Nature is often the deadliest of all. Feel free to write any comment, suggestion, or criticism. I read and appreciate every single one! Releases are on Mondays and Thursdays. With occasional bonus chapters on Saturdays. Have a nice day ^^
8 244Warlock's Gate [DROPPED]
In the empire of Orinthian, Fallon Gaumond, a young Warlock, is determined to be free from her father’s controlling demands and become a Sentinel. At her side, cloaked in shadows, is her Dementher familiar, Asmodeus, who is equally committed to seeing the Warlock grow to reach her full potential. But dealing with her overly hungry companion while keeping her secret, illegal visits to Highguard’s city dungeon hidden is the least of Fallon’s problems. As a Praeditus, she is expected to serve alongside her father and the rest of Highguard’s Praefecti to resolve the growing problem of refugees fleeing an adversary even the strongest Sentinel dare not face alone. The Gates which strike Orinthian with ever-growing frequency and pour upon these war-hardened cities merciless invading hordes of monsters from other dimensions who seek to pillage, burn, and slaughter everything that stands in their way. Please Note this is my first attempt at a litRPG. I also ask that you keep an open mind as I will be diverging, in my own way, from many of the litRPG stories I have read. For those of you who missed it, this is a Multiple Lead Characters story, hence the tag. I should also mention that this will get crunchy as far as numbers go and please pay attention to the Profanity tag.
8 253Silent Luna
After a terrible car accident when she was seven, Eirenae's life got turned upside down. Her father changed everything, becoming rotten and abusive to the point it caused her to stop speaking entirely. Eleven years later and she still lives by his rules, trapped under his thumb. She has nowhere to go; no life outside the awful one she's forced into at home, and any time she tries to speak, her voice fails her. Without much hope left, she suffers in silence. Until moving to a new town changes everything. Arriving at her new school, Eirenae immediately catches the attention of six students. They're the nicest anyone has ever been to her, but everything about them strikes her funny: they're naturally perfect, have insane athletic reflexes, and they keep using strange words like "Alpha", "Luna", and "pack". On top of it all, their eyes horrifyingly seem to change color and no matter how much she runs or gives hints she should be left alone, they won't stop being overly friendly. No one seems to be willing to explain anything to her, so maybe it's time to bring her life back into her own hands, discover what has been hiding from her past, and let herself be rescued. . . and maybe not particularly in that order!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~-Book 1 of War of the Wolves-Precedes "Fatal War"-Started: August, 2018- Completed: May 1st, 2019-#1 in Abuse: 9/21/2019-#1 in Mate 10/5/2019-#1 in luna 10/16/2019-#3 in Werewolf 12/26/2019-#1 in Whitewolf 1/28/2020-#1 in Mute 2/9/2020-#2 in Telekinesis 4/25/20-#1 in Royalwolf 3/15/22

8 159The Core of a Factory
An abandoned steampunk arms factory, in the middle of a conflict torn former state of the Empire it served, gains a soul. This transforms it into a Lord, capable of turning land into power. Beset by enemies on all sides it must figure out how to win the war its creators lost a century ago. This is a progressive Dungeon Core novel (which is to say the core will progress and expand in scale, eventually) across multiple dimensions with different characteristics (e.g. steampunk, magic, mythological). It has rationalist leanings (paragraphs of reasoning) and litrpg leanings (there are stat blocks). The core game mechanical idea is something like "what if different flavors of magic power actually did come from controlling land" and then the story is: "what if there was a flavorless (artifact deck) dungeon core". Chapters will be relatively short (my aim is that in three column format each would fit on a wide screen monitor), the first few chapters - setting up the main character and mechanics - are currently the longest in the entire series. I write chapters in blocks, and then release them one a weekday (M-F; 6 PM GMT, unless RoyalRoad's publish thing screws up) until I run out. There may be a few days of gaps here and there if someone finds an egregious error I have to re-write around or if I am behind. In general though one can read this once a weekend. I may do slight retconns and edits, I'll make sure to put it in an authors note if I do.
