《Death… And Me》Death... And Me

Suddenly, the world around Rean and Roan blurred. Rean and Roan could tell that something was happening, but they couldn't really tell what.
"Sister Orb, is everything okay?"
[Don't worry, the System is just making the changes. Wait a bit.]
Rean and Roan nodded as they waited for whatever was happening to be over.
Even though Sister Orb told them to wait a bit, the fact was that the transformation took over four hours to be over! They tried to go out during that time, but it seemed like they got stuck inside the Dimensional Realm during that time as well. Finally, when they started to think that something might have gone wrong, the world around them began to return to normal.
The blurred images in front of them disappeared as the new Dimensional Realm showed its true face. Immediately, the twins noticed the first and most significant change to it. The Dimensional Realm had a range limit. Beyond that point, there seemed to be a dark wall. Even if they tried to press forward, they simply couldn't move ahead anymore.
However, that Dark Wall now changed. Instead, a few ripples of Silver Light could be seen appearing and disappearing. That wasn't all. The Dimensional Realm's size itself increased as well. Before, it was around 50 or so meters in radius. With the Alchemy Workshop, Bathhouse, and the Electrical Formations Repository, it was feeling a little cramped already. But now, it doubled in size.
The buildings had always been close to the 'dark wall,' and it was not different now. That meant that the buildings were moved together with the expansion of the Dimensional Realm.
Lastly and the most eye-catching, a formation appeared right at the center of the Dimensional Realm. Rean looked at that and could see that the Electrical Circuitry introduced in the Repository was also used to build it. It was the first time Rean saw a Circuitry Formation in real life. However, it was just way too complicated for him to understand. There were hundreds of runes and paths that he couldn't make heads and tails of.

"Sister Orb, is this a new feature of the Dimensional Realm?"
[Exactly! How is it, do you like it?]
Rean and Roan looked at it, not knowing what it was for.
"Can you at least explain to us what this Circuitry Formation can do?"
[Oh, right! This is the Formation responsible for saving return points.]
"Return... points?"
[Yes. You will love it! The Dimensional Realm can now mark places where you can use to teleport back. For example, suppose you mark your rooms as a return point. In that case, you can go out, enter the Dimensional Realm, and then use this Formation to teleport right back into your rooms! Amazing, right?]
Rean and Roan's eyes immediately lit up!
"Indeed. Such a thing would be extremely convenient. It's not like the other teleport formations that are static. We can bring our Dimensional Realm anywhere we want. Not to mention that we would leave no traces behind."
"By the way, do we need to charge it with Spirit Stones?"
[You need to. After all, it's a Circuitry Formation. Not only does it use Spiritual Energy, but it also uses Electricity. Of course, as a Circuitry Formation of the Soul Gem System, it is not as expensive as common teleport formations. That's why it can teleport you from much further away with a smaller cost.]
Rean nodded but also thought about something else.
"I understand. However, in our Dalamu Sect, most of the teleport formations used can't teleport someone more than 50km away. The only Long-Distance Teleport Formation available can reach 1000 kilometers at most and is fucking expensive. Believe it or not, you need Rank Four Spirit Stones for that! As far as I know, it wouldn't be used unless extremely necessary. Even if the Soul Gem Circuitry Teleport Formation uses less Spiritual Energy, it is bound to be expensive just for Roan and me, no?"

[Seems like you aren't studying formations for nothing. Perhaps, you can become the most brilliant student Harvard has ever seen. Hahaha!]
"Shut up! Don't bring bad memories to the surface. Just answer my question."
[You are right, it is costly. The Circuitry Teleport Formation only operates with Rank Three Spirit Stones or higher.]
"Rank Three or higher? How is it cheaper than the standard teleport formations then? Those teleport formations that send others a few tens of kilometers away can even be charged with Rank One Spirit Stones, you know?"
[I'm not lying. It is a lot cheaper. What you are forgetting here is that you are not teleporting within the same Dimension. It's different from the teleport formations outside. Once you enter the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm, you enter a different dimension for real. You should be happy that it can at least follow you around and charges nothing for you to enter it.]
[Anyway. What I mean is that teleporting you two between dimensions is what makes the teleport cost this much. If you used standard formations, let alone Rank Three Spirit Stones, perhaps even Rank Four wouldn't be enough.]
Rean nodded.
"I see. Then I guess it is already good enough. By the way, that's not the only limit, right? How far can we teleport, and how much would it cost?"
[Correct. You need a hundred Rank Three Spirit Stones every one hundred kilometers. Also, the limit is limited by the Soul Connection Level.]
"You mean the Soul Connection Upgrades? Does it mean that we can teleport back to the saved point as long as we are within 300 kilometers?"
[Yep. As long as you use 300 Rank Three Spirit Stones, you can teleport back to the saved point from 300 kilometers away.]
[Oh, one more thing! The limit for Rank Three Spirit Stones is a thousand kilometers. Once your soul connection surpasses this limit, and you decide to teleport back from further away, you will need Rank Four Spirit Stones.]
Rean and Roan nodded. Their Soul Connection Upgrade was only 300 kilometers anyway. There is no point in thinking about over a thousand kilometers now.
"Anyway, although we can't use it all the time, this is indeed a great feature. Is there a limit to how many saved points we can have?"
[There is. Your Soul Connection is at level 2 now, so you can have 2 saved points. At level 3, you can have 3. I think you understand how it goes.]
"Yes. What about changing a saved point?"
[Once you reach the limit of saved points, you can add a new one. However, the Circuitry Teleport Formation will not be able to hold the coordinates of the oldest saved point anymore. Simply put, get rid of one to get a new one.]
Rean and Roan didn't mind that. All they knew was that this feature was really convenient and life-saving. They might save a point outside dangerous places and then use it to go back. The Profound Abyss was an excellent example of it. Of course, the Profound Abyss extended for much further than just 300km, but it would still be very useful nonetheless, depending on the circumstances.
"Alright, should we save one point in our rooms straight away?"
Roan nodded.
"Indeed."
The twins then exited the Soul Gem Dimensional Realm and immediately contacted the Soul Gem System.
[Saving a Coordinate will cost 100 Destiny Points.]
[Confirm Purchase?]
Rean and Roan's mouth twitched.
"Well... fuck!"

The White Rabbit: Book 2
In the Urillian Empire, the Empress Xandra rules three-quarters of the planet Xren from her home in the capital of the Earth Continent. Both the fire and water peoples have fallen under her might after a series of wars stretching back three centuries. Earth elves, under Xandra's rule, have spread throughout the planet and established colonies, and are, by all accounts, enjoying what seems to be a prosperous and happy existence. But not everyone in Uril is happy. The holy books speak of elves as the Chosen People of Thesis, tasked with guiding and protecting the lower races. For some people, this scripture has been interpreted to designate their life as one on the lowest rungs of society. Humans have been reduced to a slave class, and serve their elven masters under Xandra's rule, kept at bay by the constant fear of the dreaded Emerald Knight, and their own perceived weakness. Humans do not lead long lives, nor do they possess the wisdom, power, or magical acumen of their elven masters. But there is hope. A group of people have banded together to fight against Xandra, her Knight, and her empire. They call themselves the "Knights of Order" united under the principle idea that Xandra's reign has brought chaos unto Xren, and they wish to restore order. These Knights are led by a man named Xaxac Brigaddon, spoken of as a legend. They say that when the moons are full, some humans transform into powerful beasts. They say that Xaxac is the most powerful warrior on Xren, that in his youth he was enslaved and forced to fight other humans to the death in a bloodsport called "cage fighting", that he could not be touched and held the world championship title for three years running until he faked his own death and escaped his master to join the resistance. They say that he has friends in high places- noblemen, pirates, and the devil himself. They say that if you can find him, he can ferry you to freedom in places where the Earth Elves fear to tread. They say that he is immune to magical attack, and his eyes shine like the silver moon. They say that he is descended from Quizlivian Brigaddon, one of the humans who helped the demon Magnus escape a god. They say that if you want to walk the Path of Order, you should follow the White Rabbit.Come and watch the transformation from human boy to Knight of Order: The life and times of Xaxac OfAgalon OfLangil Brigaddon. Content Warning: This work is based on the real experiences of human trafficing survivors. Xaxac's origins are based on true events, and they are presented realisitcally; this includes but is not limited to: isolation, gaslighting, emotional and sexual abuse, and grooming tactics. This work is meant to hold a mirror up to society; it is based on the real of experiences of people who have experienced slavery and/or abuse. It is an adult work and probably should not be read by anyone under the age of 18. If you are a survivor of human trafficing and/or abuse, your feedback is welcome, but please do not read this if you think it may trigger your trauma. I did not write this with the intention of harming anyone, but rather to provide accurate representation for a group that does not normally get it in the hopes of changing the zeitgeist. I would like to see a world where more people understand what these experiences are like, so that real survivors do not have to deal with microagressions from an ignorant public. Reader discretion is advised. This book does not display these elements as heavily as book 1.
