Chapter 11: The Change of Fate
Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL
Those who wanted to pry into their own fate would definitely check whether their identity was real or fake.
Therefore, the past experiences that they had designed must not only be reasonable but also be able to withstand investigation. It would be best if they could not be checked at all.
If they had designed themselves to be nobles or commoners from the nine great empires, it would be very easy to find out that Lugh’s identity was fake.
At this moment, Lugh seemed to have thought of something.
He took out a purple crystal that looked like a rhombus from his dimensional pocket. The purple crystal was emitting a deep light, and there was a number “1” engraved on it.
This was what he had taken from Charles’vault previously. Charles had carefully kept it in an exquisite wooden box.
At that time, Lugh did not know what this crystal was nor what its function was. However, he thought it must be something precious for Charles to have kept it in such an exquisite box.
It wasn’t until he had accidentally flipped through a book in the library that he had found out that this amethyst had come from the heavens battlefield. Furthermore, it had been personally made by twelve human wise men. However, no one knew its specific function or the meaning of its existence.
With this item, Lugh could design himself a background at the heavens battlefield. The heavens battlefield was chaotic and filled with danger. No one would be surprised at anything that happened there.
Thus, Lugh began to compile his background.
As for his identity, he was an orphan. The heavenly battlefield was filled with orphans. He had been adopted by an old man. Under the old man’s nurturing, Lugh had gone through all kinds of battles on the heavenly battlefield and become a 1-star rune-master.

After he had become a rune-master, the old man left and let Lugh travel to the nine great empires…
Yes, the story was full of cliché, but there were basically no real problems with it. This kind of thing happened from time to time on the battlefield of the heavens.
I should have been lucky recently, right?
Lugh looked at the two clouds of fog floating above his head again, one gray and one pink. With the fate rune, Lugh naturally knew what these two different colored clouds of fog meant.
Gray usually represented danger, while pink usually represented romance.
The two clusters of fog intertwined together, indicating that these things were happening around the same thing.
Damn it!
Seeing this scene, Lugh’s expression was a little strange.
Why is my luck danger and romance?
Could it be that the assassination attempt on Berg will fail tomorrow?
What the hell is romance? Could it be that I will have another romantic encounter?
Lugh was bewildered. It didn’t matter if it was a relationship, but the danger made him a little surprised.
He was already so well-prepared. How could the assassination attempt on Berg fail tomorrow? What exactly was he lacking?
Lugh thought about it carefully and then planned how he could enter the palace. Of course, he could use invisibility to enter the palace, but his invisibility couldn’t be maintained forever. He would definitely be discovered.
He should use an identity that would not be guarded against to enter the palace. After assassinating Berg, he would be able to successfully escape without arousing suspicion from others.
Right, if I can use Celt’s identity to enter the palace, I won’t cause Berg to be suspicious and guarded
The image of Celt appeared in Lugh’s mind.
Celt was Berg’s good friend. He would definitely not attract the attention of others.

If he changed into Celt and let others think that it was his good friend Celt who had killed Berg, it would definitely cause shock to others.
It would also be very easy to obtain Celt’s identity. After all, it would be easy to assassinate Celt. After killing him, he would use the illusion runes to change into Celt.
Just as this idea was formed in Lugh’s mind, the gray fog above his head suddenly turned green, representing good order. This made him very happy, proving that his idea was correct.
The two golden runes of time and fate quietly floated in Lugh’s mind, like two noble emperors, with a circle of purple runes around their backs.
The golden runes brought even greater changes to Lugh’s body. The cells in his body were undergoing a crazy transformation, and his skin, bones, internal organs, and muscles became even tougher.
His originally thick muscles had shrunk slightly, but their density had greatly increased. At this moment, Lugh’s strength was at least ten times stronger than before.
The skin on his body had become as white and smooth as milk, and there was also a faint fragrance.
The biggest change was that Lugh’s brain region had expanded a lot under the effect of the two golden runes. The brain region determined spiritual power.
For example, his brain was the house, and his spiritual power was the people living in the house. If his brain was only 10 square meters before and could only accommodate one person, now his brain was at least 100 square meters and could accommodate seven or eight people.
His spiritual power skyrocketed. Like radar detection, he could sense a range of a thousand meters nearby.
With Lugh’s spiritual power, everything within a thousand meters of Dawn Inn could be clearly seen in his mind.
Outside, in the corridor, a maid pushed a dining cart and used a silver cover to protect the food. Inside were roasted chicken, salads, and some fruits. Lugh could even smell the aroma of the roasted chicken.
In the room downstairs, a middle-aged man and woman were crazily exercising. The man was covered in sweat, panting, and trying his best to move his lower body. Unfortunately, he was not strong enough. In less than a few minutes, it was over. The woman on the bed wanted more, so she scolded him in disgust.
At the reception desk on the first floor, the girl with long flaxen hair was resting her head in her hands and looking out of the window in boredom. As long as Lugh wanted, he could count the freckles on her cheek.
He could even feel the tiny creatures crawling slowly in the garden outside the Dawn Inn. A spider dangled from a leaf, a transparent thread hanging from its back.

Binary of Life and Death
Monsters, gold, chaos, glory, adventure, what more could attract two of the greatest players of all time to Sugarea, the most popular MMORPG of its time. But everyone makes errors, and unfortunate for these two brilliant players, they have made the grave mistake of not actually sleeping like normal humans and missed out on the very moment the new Dark Legion update would take effect. Or did they? They wake in what seems familiar yet not, but they soon realize their predicament. They are inside their game avatar's bodies! A half-Demon and a Dragonoid are now struggling with more than just power, these two men have to find their new purpose and calling in a completely different world. Will they concur it like ordinary land or will they enlighten the planet into equality? Do figures pull strings in the dark or is everything open to the public eye? Nothing is certain except the unknown, and nothing is ever as it seems... This is an Isekai story, as such, some parts may sound either cliché or similar to others, but I assure you, I tried to prevent that. To make it known, I took quite a lot of inspiration from the light novel/anime Overlord, but that doesn't mean it's a direct rip-off of it. You'll find there to be quite the amount of differences. Just a little heads up as well, you should expect irregular uploads, as it takes me a long time to write each chapter. I am currently trying for once every other week on Sundays around 10:00 A.M. Chapters are usually 7k words and up, with the longest (chapter 3) being 10.3k words. So, if you like to sit down and read a long chapter every two weeks at 10:00 A.M. EST on Sundays, then you can waste your time here! Small disclaimer: Profanity is far and few between, and mostly used by side characters, rarely the main character. When something with gore happens, I describe to the best of my ability, which will only get better the longer I write this... :) Small cuts between perspectives happen, and can hide what some characters do, which will be revealed in future chapters, I'm not that lazy... all the time... There are some parts that are long blocks of text, most, if not all, of them, are characters talking, but I try not to info dump. I know one of the tags says "Psychological", and for the most part, it is, but it's not as prominent as other stories, instead, it's more hidden and scattered, but I did try to make the pieces I did reveal all fit together. Cover art is bound to be changed when I have a good picture to use, so the Yin-Yang is a placeholder for now unless yall wanna gimme something to use *wink wink nudge nudge*. So yeah, please give it a try, as I have nothing better to do with my life, and I am banking solely off of a career in literature and am hoping that I can create a story that can actually be called something more than a child's imagination running wild. The eventual and inevitable end to the story won't be for a long while, at least till chapter 40 or so. I have thought long and hard about the message and themes at play, so I hope you, the reader (who has some amazing hair btw), can enjoy and partake on this adventure with me into my dark empty pit of an imagination.

Flame Beneath The Snowfall
Alto is a world governed by Tones. Magic, as one might call it. Manifested through deep mental and physical conditioning, one can control the Tones in a way that is unique to them. The power to store items in gems, transfer life, affect a person's mind, and even the more primal abilities such as control of the elements. Those who have these supernatural abilities are called 'Vassals.' People that fully manifest their abilities are not as common as one might think, and not all Vassals acquire their ability through practice, given if conditions are met. In fact, those who had received much trauma manifest the Tones more frequently, albeit spontaneously. However, the rare kind of Vassals are those who manifest it from childhood. A gift, but not without its repercussions. Alto is stuck in a transitional era, where the line between modern and dated technology is blurred. One can travel to a city that has a tall skyline, bustling with people in sophisticated clothing, or a mere town governed by a lord, all the while riding on a powered vehicle. Cultures vary: Some turn to the more dated practices such as castes, others are more inclined to set equal footing on their people, led by nobility. Some are dedicated to become scholars, studying Alto's Tones, while others set foot on hunts, protecting lone towns from the creatures of some of the still-untamed lands. And the Vassals? Those willing are took under The Organization, an elusive group, its presence said to permeate all throughout Alto, taking care of Rogue Vassals that abuse their abilities and other businesses related to their side. But what is this story all about, you may ask? Well, set your sights on the upper portions of this huge landmass that is Alto. Yes, the 'whole' world is called Alto, but that is because the majority of the known people live on this large continent. Relieve yourself of the worrying tensions everywhere, and see the white snow. Trace the piercing mountaintops and focus your eyes between the valley. A town sits there. Mido. After realizing that the memories only left in his mind was the night of his town's imminent destruction in flames, a boy finds himself grasping for every fiber of his life as he lays down flat on the ground. Beneath him was soot mixed with the white snow. Fortunately, a group of investigators, who were supposed to answer their call for help, saved him from his sorry state. With a newfound second wind, but hampered by his loss of memory, he must solve his own case: Who had the audacity to set Mido, his town, aflame? Flame Beneath the Snowfall focuses on action, with a sense of adventure, but mostly the discovery of an outside world, and the protagonist's exposure to it. Add in a whisk of soft magical elements, and you get a story that I hope will be interesting to the readers. That is not to say that my work is without the sense of unnerving atmosphere, however. As a forewarning, there are elements of gore, horror, minor elements of mental trauma, etc. so it is not for all audiences. *The book is already completed. Although I have plans to continue the story (it would have to involve much larger scope in terms of world-building), I have yet to decide when to start the next entry.
