"How are you going to deal with the Dean?" Shu asked Ryder.
"I'll go to his office and talk to him like an adult," Ryder smilingly said.
"How is that going to do anything?" Shu asked with a confused look on his face.
"I can help you with it if you need it," he added.
"Nah, it's fine. I have a plan," Ryder muttered.
"Alright. I won't do anything then. I'm quite interested in how you deal with it, though. Be sure to tell me later," Shu said.
"Oh, right, I forgot to thank you for helping me. I don't know any lawyer in the city. You really helped me get it done faster," Ryder thanked Shu.
"It's alright, bro. Don't worry about it," Shu said smilingly.
"How's your leveling up going?" Ryder asked Shu.
"That's, ah, I haven't gone hunting yet. I'll go tonight and officially begin the grinding," Shu said with an embarrassed look on his face.
"Yeah, I don't want you to die on our first try because I'll definitely complete the mission, and I don't want you to miss out on the experience and rewards because you were killed," Ryder chuckled as he placed his hand on Shu's shoulders.
"Don't underestimate me. I'll definitely show you how great this Big Daddy is! Everyone in the game will know my name," Shu pumped up his chest and said.
"I'm sure there will come a day like that," Ryder laughed out loud.
"Anyway, I'll take Alice home. See you later," Ryder told Shu before he entered his Car. Shu also went to his car, and they went their separate ways.
"Dean Greyson, I know about your actions, but as I promised, I won't do anything. I'm quite curious about what you're going to face," Shu chuckled as he drove his car towards his Mansion.

As he entered his mansion, his butler walked up to him.
"Master Maxwell, you again left without telling me! The helicopter is waiting on the helipad for an hour already. We're going to be late for the meeting," the Butler said to him.
"Yeah, I had to do something important. Let me get fresh; I'll be right there. Tell the pilot to keep things ready," Shu said as he walked to his room.

One after another, Ryder got four quests. He was so shocked that he had to stop the car on the side so that he could understand the missions.
'The first mission is the main mission, so I have to do it. It looks like I have no choice about it, but it didn't say that I have to kill anyone. Let's see if I can get his revenge and how,' Ryder thought as he looked at the first mission.

'The second mission is somewhat complicated but not impossible. What's with the reward, though? A clue about our parents' death? Is it something about the truck driver that hit their car? He's still not found yet, so it might be that' Ryder's frown hit deeper as he saw the second mission.
'Third mission about Esmi, it shouldn't be tough either. The punishment is bizarre, though, a rumor about me?' Ryder thought as a wry smile formed on his face.
'The biggest problem is the 4th mission. How can I find a cultivator in this place? I thought that they only existed in fantasy novels. I didn't even know that they existed before I got this mission. Apparently, they're doing a really great job hiding,'
He ultimately sighed as he saw all the punishments.
It was like Janus had thrown all the mission backlogs at him all at once.
"What happened?" Alice asked as she looked towards Ryder in concern.
"Oh, it's nothing," Ryder muttered as he closed the mission screen and started the car again.
"Let's go eat something. You don't need to cook today," Ryder told Alice as he stopped the car before a small restaurant.
Alice and Ryder stepped out of the car. They went inside the restaurant and ate before they walked back to the car.
They got back home and entered their house.
"So much happened today. Just rest, alright? There's no need for you to go to University tomorrow. I'll go talk to them myself," Ryder said to Alice.
Alice looked towards Ryder and slowly walked up to him.
She hugged him tightly.
"Thank you," She said.
The peaceful hug lasted for over 5 minutes before she freed Ryder and entered her room.
"I'll definitely make them regret what they did," Ryder muttered as he asked back to his room.
He laid on the bed and wore the Divinity Glasses.
He woke up in the Royal Palace of the Demon Realm.
Ryder stepped out of his room and went to the practice hall, where Rale was practicing.
"Good morning, Your Highness," Rale greeted Ryder.
"Good Morning. Come with me. I need you to translate what I talked to you about," Ryder told Rale.
"Yes, Your Highness," Rale said.
He walked out of the Practice Hall and followed Ryder to the Royal Library.
There was a table at the center and chairs placed around it.
Ryder sat on one of the chairs and brought the book out of his storage space.
"This is the book. Don't stand, just sit beside me," Ryder told Rale, who was standing beside him.
Rale followed the command and sat on the chair near him.

Cursebreaker
I'm not writing this anymore unfortunately, and I probably won't ever continue it. I guess writing is more difficult than I thought Reto Mason woke up on a mountain, and it was all downhill from there. Until they hit floor, at which point I'm surprised they didn't die to be honest. That is, they didn't die yet. We'll see what happens This is a LitRPG which does have levels and stats, but is more focused on Accomplishments, although expect some more classic RPG stuff in the future. The main focus is on skills, and skill modification/evolution in that regard. Expect some weird 4th dimension stuff eventually, and the weird things that come from there.

Wanderer: Life in a New World
After losing his life to lung cancer, Hugh Carters, is sent to an odd room where he meets a well-trimmed man claiming to be God, or rather the God of his world. After being told his life story back to him and being reminded some painful details, he is told that due to his livelihood and his greed he was picked to become a Wanderer. A Wanderer is a reincarnated soul that gets sent to a different world to make a better life than the one he originally had. The reason why Hugh became a wonderer was because his life was too short in his eyes to fit his ambitions and his marriage never came to fruition, so when given the option to start from the beginning he accepted. The world he chose was one where various sentient races coexist and the Gods, or rather Vitans, interact with the lower realms. It's a world with magic, a large variety of unique creatures, and a chance to give Hugh everything he couldn't get in his previous life. When he was reincarnated he became Lucien Mercelious and his new life began.

Inside Metsys
Inside the universe of Metsys, life is chaotic, cruel and crazy. People with Stats have power and everyone wants to be a Player. Meet Corn, a slave who has no memory of most of his past and doesn’t know how most of the world functions. This doesn’t stop him from escaping the bonds of slavery by risking his life on a gamble. After all, he would risk everything for freedom and the right to be a mage. But how’s a scrub to learn Magic and get power? Why, join the magical under belly of the city, of course. And eat all the mana that he can get. Two Disclaimers: 1) This is a work of fiction. Any characters, places, organisations and everything else in this novel are fictional. Any resemblance between anything in this novel and the plane of reality we live in is purely coincidental. Was that a bit over the top and a wee bit unnecessary? Maybe. 2) This story features an antihero with a slight hint of villainy. So, sooner or later, it’s going to get dark. Very dark. Hence all the tags. If you are prone to be squeamish, this might not be for you. Well. You were warned. ;)
