《How I Became A Jarl》Journey To New Land pt. 6

It felt like I woke up but not completely. I still felt bed that I was lying in but there was nothing else around me… just empty black space.
[ Loki ]
“You missed the chance!”
[ Eric ]
“What chance?! What are you talking about?!”
[ Loki ]
“Don’t you remember your big promise?”
[ Eric ]
“To whom?”
[ Loki ]
“To your sweet puppy… that’s who!”
[ Eric ]
“What do you mean…”
[ Loki ]
“I showed you who the killer is…”
[ Eric ]
“You mean… He is one of the Riglids?!”
[ Loki ]
“No…”
[ Eric ]
“No?”
[ Loki ]
“He was only hiding his identity as Riglid and you missed it. In that moment when your mark began to burn he’s done the same.”
[ Eric ]
“He was also blessed by a god!?”
[ Loki ]
“Yes. Your target is another person from your world.”
[ Eric ]
“So he also has powers of a god… But he was so weak when I fought him.”
[ Loki ]
“He was just acting and hiding his power… Since he might be stronger than you I’ll give you a ‘reward’ for finding him.”
[ Eric ]
“You mean a blessing? But why do you want to help me?”
[ Loki ]
“It’s not about amusement anymore… That god was supposed to be dead and yet… She has a servant in Asgard. Let’s say it’s a personal matter of mine now too. I’ll give you two blessings. One will be your mark itching when you’re close to that guy or any servant of that goddess and second… hmm… I have no idea!”
[ Eric ]
“What?!”
[ Loki ]

“Let’s spin the wheel! It’s your chance to get an attack spell!”
[ Eric ]
“Fine… Just show me the wheel.”
In front of my bed appeared a giant fortune wheel it was five times bigger than me and there were more than a hundred possibilities. Now I kind of understand why he didn’t know what to choose… There are so many and…
[ Eric ]
“How am I supposed to spin this wheel!? It’s gigantic!”
[ Loki ]
“Fine… I’ll make it smaller…” Said Loki with some kind of disgust in his voice like a little kid.
[ Eric ]
“Please give me something good…” Last time I was excited to get new power but this time I’m stressed. This will decide how much it will help me against that guy… The wheel moved slower and slower and finally, ticks were heard every few seconds and then it stopped.
[ Loki ]
“Set In Motion.”
[ Eric ]
“What’s that?”
[ Loki ]
“It’s a weird ability but useful. It makes it possible to do two attacks at the same time with one weapon. Imagine getting ready to make strike the enemy’s head with a sword and then switching to a stabbing. Your real body will go for stabbing but at the same time, your power will make strike his head.”
[ Eric ]
“Mhm… Kind of complex but I get it… So I can do two attacks at the same time.”
[ Loki ]
“You? No, you can’t.”
[ Eric ]
“But you said!”
[ Loki ]
“I said how experienced warrior with a good grasp of weapons can do… You can only make your attacks faster.”
[ Eric ]
“Could say that earlier…”
[ Loki ]
“Ok… BYE!”

[ Eric ]
“Bye?”
Suddenly my bed and I began to fall but there was nothing around just empty space. I was coming close to hitting something bright but when I hit it I immediately woke up. I looked around and I was in the room in the building next to those barracks. Skyge was sleeping on my lap but he was woken up by me.
[ Skyge ]
“You’re back master…” Said sleepy Skyge.
[ Eric ]
“What do you mean back?”
[ Skyge ]
“Well… I mean you came back from where you were…”
[ Eric ]
“Huh?”
[ Skyge ]
“Your body was here but your mind left somewhere…”
[ Eric ]
“You can tell that?”
[ Skyge ]
“I’m your bond so… Yes… I felt that… Did something happen when you were away?”
[ Eric ]
“Nothing you should worry about…” I said as I slowly pet Skyge.

Briars and Thorns
Millenia ago, humanity faced a catastrophe. Some devastating, catastrophic event that even to this day leaves its impact on humankind and the Earth. That’s not where our story takes place though, instead we look to space, where humans have taken up residence among the stars. Living in huge industrial space stations, life is a bore. Dull daily routines are broken only by extravagant fashion, music, and other means of self expression. Also, of course, the lifeblood of the stations- games. Four months ago, humanity was contacted by the first ever known alien life forms. These aliens, calling themselves the Erta offered their designs and schematics for their True Virtual Reality (TVR) console, as well as access to their game in exchange for peace. And humanity, excited at the opportunity to achieve one of their life long dreams (that is, to experience True VR), graciously took them up on their offer. Now, after scientists have finally confirmed the console to be safe for humans, the game is to finally be released to the public. This comes to the joy of most of the population, but a small portion of them can't help but be upset. As thousands of the researchers meant to be developing virtual reality, are fired overnight. Meet Brian Reed, one of these newly unemployed workers. Now, join Brian as he explores the very game that was the death of his job. And watch as he learns that the game is not quite what it seems.

This story is abandoned and has not been authorized for distribution on any sites but RoyalRoad. Given the Gamer ability after shattering a crystal inside a game, Jon's world is upturned as he is thrown into a life he considered fantasy. Making new enemies and encountering a god, he cannot escape the quest which is forced on him. Different worlds and different situations, can he come out on top? He's neither perfect nor a saint, he is Jon. Welcome to Gamer. This has been dropped, I didn't like the way I forced a few plotpoints and I lost my notes on the story itself. Read below if you want to be spoilered. As far as I recall, he would change race into a higher human after using a spell to overload his mana repeatably until his body forcibly adapts, he would train up his rift usage spell with some better targets than God's Realm because he keeps hitting his stats limit until the cost lowers enough that he can actually grind it. His world is being invaded by multiple worlds, so the god had many backup plans where a lot of people went into their own fantasy settings and came back to defend Earth. Jon never is the strongest one out there, he has to keep grinding and grinding before he gets stronger than the other heroes, and at that point the invasion is nearing the final stretch. Jon's two biggest advantages is that he can keep grinding without hitting a cap he can't evolve, and that even when he is eventually killed. He would have respawned in the nearest 'Safe Zone' after dropping a level and everything he did to gain that level. I also had a bunch of ideas for mini-arcs where he would play in multiple worlds in multiple situations, not that great of an idea in retrospect.
