Divinity: Against The Godly System Chapter 35

"You're just pulling my leg at this point. You know that it's impossible." He thought in his mind.
He didn't want to speak and wake up the profound bear.
" Also, what the heck is wrong with the reward? Self Satisfaction? Seriously?"
" You're just increasing my difficulty unnecessarily. So now, I only have 5 hours to reach level 5, since I will be sleeping for 24 hours at that."
He was having a headache now, but he didn't let out affect the target at hand.
He stepped forward with silent steps as he held a sword in his hand.
The bear was still sleeping as Ryder stood near the bear.
Ryder raised his sword in the air as he thrust it down. The sword penetrated the head of the Profound Bear, who abruptly opened his eyes and roared in pain as he took his last breath.
[+50 experience points]
The Profound Bear's roar was quite loud and attracted the attention of quite a lot of beasts.
Three more Profound Bears came running as they heard the pained cry of their partner.
"You bastards are here. It's good. I wanted to let you see the consequences of destroying my reputation. " A grin appeared on his face as he gazed at the Profound Bears.
He looked like a hungry man who had found a delicious meal.
The Profound Bears roared loudly as they started running towards Ryder.
"Enraged Slash!" Ryder said as he swung his sword with full strength.
His sword managed to strike the profound bear that was closest to him. The bear died instantly as it fell to the ground.
[+50 experience points]
He didn't stop there and attacked the next bear.
He used 2 more Enraged Slash and killed the remaining bears.

"Hah, finally level 4. One more, and I'll be done. But I can't leave this place yet. I will take that with me. I can't stay unknown this time. I will make everyone know the name of Hades in the world of Divinity. Time to be the first." He muttered to himself as he saw his stats.
He used both his stat points on Speed as he prepared for the next part of his plan.

He walked even deeper into the beast valley as he tried to look for a cave.
Ryder had never seen that cave when he was in the novice village last time, but he had heard it in an announcement.
There was unique equipment hidden within the beast valley, and only the ones who weren't level 5 yet could get to it.
Three years ago, When Ryder was still a level 4 player in the novice village, he had heard the announcement.
[First unique Equipment has been discovered in the world of Divinity. The Equipment Ranking is unlocked.]
Ryder had checked his notification panel and saw a Ranking Section there.
[Rank Equipment Grade Owner
1). Moon Scythe Unique Lucifer]

That was the first time someone had heard of a player named Lucifer. The name that would go on to become the most well-known name in the world of Divinity.
Since the Scythe was discovered by Lucifer, the developers did disclose the mystery behind the scythe. The others tried to do the same, but just as people had expected, only the first person to achieve that feat was able to get that scythe.
He was awed by Lucifer and waited to be someone like him. He had the opportunity to meet Lucifer once, but their first meeting didn't go as planned. It ended with Ryder being killed by Lucifer. He was able to log in after 24 hours, but he did lose a level. From that day, he hated Lucifer.
That's why Ryder wanted to take the first rank. He not only wanted the fame but his revenge as well.
Ryder wanted to find the cave where Lucifer had found that Scythe, but he didn't know the exact location.
The only thing he knew was that it was in the depths of the beast valley.
As Ryder was roaming through the Beast Valley, he did manage to earn 100 experience points from the beasts that appeared in his path.
After looking around the valley for another hour, he did find a cave. He didn't know if it was the real cave, but it was the only one he found.
He prayed that it was the one as he entered the cave.
Till now, he had done everything. All the preparation was for this moment alone.
Even the magic he learned was for this one thing. Just so that he could be prepared for what he was to face.
Ryder stepped inside the cave.
The cave was quite dark, but Ryder was able to see a little.
Ryder stepped inside the cave.
As he entered the cave, he felt like vomiting. The stinky smell was simply unbearable.
"I have never regretted not having my Senses Controlling skill, as much as I do at this moment. This place is simply hell."
He controlled himself as he stepped inside. He had his sword in his hand while his other hand was empty, ready to cast the Flame Blast spell at any moment.

Cultivating Earth [Hiatus]
[This fiction is on indefinite hiatus. I'm currently acting as a 24-hour caregiver for my step-father who had a massive heart attack. I apologize for disappearing so quickly, but sometimes that's just life. I'll return as soon as possible. Sorry everyone!] Zhao Gang, after hundreds of thousands of years cultivating, has finally reached the penultimate threshold. He is ready to ascend to the level of True Immortal. Driven by the need for a place his enemies won't find him, Zhao Gang puts together an audacious plan. He has developed a revolutionary new formation which will allow him to ascend while on even the lowest planes. To avoid drawing attention, he has to choose a plane that is relatively desolate, however. He chooses Earth. Fast forward three thousand years. Zhao Gang discovers what his work has wrought - a cultivation-free culture that has delved the deep mysteries of creation - he can't help but think how this tiny little planet devoid of natural energy could affect the course of all creation. There's only one problem. For that to happen, he has to succeed in cultivating Earth. Notes: Chinese names should be ignored in the social context - they don't mean anything. Sorry for slaughtering such a beautiful tradition. This novel starts off slower than most. If the slow-roll isn't your thing, you might want to give this a pass. If it's not for you, I understand. Also, releases may be broken up into smaller chunks. The goal is 5k words, but definitely more than 4k. If you see a short release, be aware that more is probably coming. I'll be honest and say that I'm struggling with each new scene, if only because I want to balance the scope of vision with good pacing. I hope the work I put into it is worthwhile.

Hello ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to my first attempt at writing a novel. I am preparing to participate in the 2017 NaNoWriMo event so enjoy the first chapter as that's here early only to ensure that I have a place to post once the event starts. This means the first novel/book will have a target of 50,000 words. I'm excited to attempt this challenge despite the hurdles I will have to overcome. I do have a demanding full time job so planning time to write and make weekly releases starting in November will be my biggest challenge. Also, please accept my apologies on my cover. I'm not an artist and the only digital tool available at my disposal is the stock microsoft paint. So I did my best to create a decent cover as I did not want to steal the work of another. If there are those interested by the end of November in donating a new fan made cover then I will look into replacing the old cover.
