[Zombie Soldier Mini Boss Nuno: defeated]
[+20000 exp]
[Player: Yuki Kaito]
[Level 4: 39200/50000]
[Item drop: Pot of greed]
Yuki double tapped on the brown pouch to open its information chart.
[Rank: X]
[Attack: 0]
[Description: Contains 200000 silver]
"So no back story for this stage?"
Just as he said that an object dropped from the sky.
[Item drop: Coat of rotten flesh]
Yuki once again double tapped on the scroll to open its information chart.
[Rank: B]
[Attack: 0]
[Description: Power: makes the user of this coat invisible to undead monsters. In a world unknown to all, there was a horrible war in place. As a last line of defense, the losing party forcibly mutated their soldiers to become giant fighting zombies for them. In their hurry, the serum was incomplete which caused the zombies to turn on their masters.]
"Guess I spoke to soon."
"A B ranked item might actually be the best thing I can find here. It's probably only a B rank because of its stealth abilities. Other than that, it's just a piece of fabric that smells like dead skin."
Yuki walked forward like he had done multiple times over the past 5 days until he reached the 6th gateway of the dungeon.
[Stage five: Complete]
[Save point reached]
[If you would like to move to the 6th stage of the dungeon, please step forward]
[Stage 6 difficulty: level 3-4]
Yuki opened his inventory once again and drank a full status recovery potion.
"Here I go again. Once more I'll put my life on the line for my dreams. I'm starting to enjoy this."
As Yuki walked through the gateway, the white light blocking his view of the next stage began to disintegrate.
The new terrain was a grassy field that went on as far as the eye can see. It was a refreshing sight. There were butterflies and other beautiful creatures.

"Is this some sort of a mistake? Why does an undead dungeon have something this beautiful?"
As Yuki walked through the grassy field in hopes of finding the monsters on this stage he spotted a dark figure in the distance. It was a human sized shadow figure. It seemed to not have a physical form. As each second went by, the shadowy figure would lose its shape and reforms.
Yuki put on the "Coat of rotten flesh" to hide his presence and observe. As he continued to watch the shadow he noticed that around the figure, there was a perfectly made black circle. Once some time passed, a butterfly approached the figure and attempted to land on it.
"How sweet, maybe he's just another harmless creature from this world."
Just then, the butterfly landed on the figure. First it began to dry up, next it turned completely black and shattered into hundred of pieces.
"Of course you break too, you should've never come to me. All I can do is destroy. I would be better dead," the shadow figure thought.
Yuki was hearing the thoughts of someone else.
"Who is that?!" Yuki began to panic.
"There's only one suspect, it's probably the shadow. So it's a self hating unstable phantom now?"
"How does it count as an undead though? Maybe because it's dead inside?" Yuki began to analyze.
"It doesn't matter, either way that thing is a threat. I shouldn't be careless around it."
When Yuki took a closer look at the shadow, he noticed something above its head.
[Corrupted Soul Mini Boss: Meurig]
"Wait so he's a mini boss? No wonder he's so strong. I guess there aren't any small fry to deal with after stage 5. This makes my job a lot easier."

Yuki opened his inventory tab and pulled out two daggers. Using his index finger and his thumb, he threw one of them as fast as he possibly could at Meurig. To Yuki's surprise, it was easily caught by Meurig and the dagger began to turn black and disintegrate.
"Where did that come from? It doesn't matter now, I deserved to be stabbed by it, I wish I didn't stop it." Meurig thought to himself.
Yuki continued to hear Meurig's thoughts.
"Is this part of the stage? Should I be able to hear him? And why does he hate himself so much?" Yuki thought.
Yuki pulled out another dagger from his inventory.
"How about we try this now." Yuki said.
Two daggers in hand, Yuki threw the first one directly at Meurig once again. However since he knew that he would catch it on instinct, Yuki sprinted to the side and threw another dagger which was aimed at the left hand of Meurig. Yuki did this all while staying invisible due to the effects of "Coat of rotten flesh".
While Meurig managed to block the first dagger, however the second once hit him directly in his left arm. Meurig started to scream in pain while he cried. He began running around uncontrollably. As he took each step, a one meter diameter would lose all its life force and disintegrate, the grass would turn black and the animals would die.
"So he's basically a glass cannon. He has immense power but all it would take is one solid hit to kill him." Yuki thought.
"Even if this seems easy, I'll have to be careful around him. All he also needs is one solid hit to kill me as well."
"I wanted to learn more about him, but my safety comes first."
Yuki quickly sprinted towards Meurig. He jumped high in the air, dagger in hand and tied to stab him. Meurig was surprised but he caught it. A sudden chill went in Yuki's spine. The feeling of death. He had felt it once before when he jumped off his balcony and ended his life. Unlike last time, the feeling remained.
"I'm not going to die here!"
Yuki used the hilt of his sword to repeal himself before it disintegrated. His breathing had become heavy. He had almost died. All he wanted to do was puke because of the shock.
"I need to end this as fast as possible, I don't want to continue fighting this thing any longer."
His legs were shaking in fear.

Jeremy Finds A Dragon
Jeremy, a teenage boy with a freakish talent for the clarinet, is less than thrilled when his mom announces that they’re up and moving to a tiny village on a tiny Scottish island the summer before his senior year of high school. But Dunsegall turns out to be an okay sort of place, if you like cliffs, sheep, and small-batch ice cream made by a family obsessed with Ray Charles. Two teenage locals — Colin and Aggie — quickly pull Jeremy under their wing and decide to give him a summer he’ll never forget. Everything is mostly fine until one day, in the depths of the woods, they stumble across a two hundred year-old monk and a living, breathing — or, rather, snoring — dragon who need their help. Together, Jer, Col, and Aggie delve into the hidden history of the island, getting up to their elbows in heresy, Highland Games, and, somehow, romance.

They Are Our Smols
You’ve read They Are Smol. You’ve enjoyed They Are Smol (if you haven’t, well, prepare to not enjoy this one either). But this is smols like you’ve not seen them before. This is extreme smolness with a lemon twist: smols fucked up big time in this one, and Earth, well… Earth is empty of smols. At least the ayys hope so, because it’s fallout time back there. The ones that got away — and let’s face it, it was all of them that were left — had no place to go. Homeless, smol and needing protectings, they were taken in. For the lucky ayys out there, they’re our smols. This is a not-so-serious slice of life alternate universe where the entire population of Earth, what was left after the dead man’s switch was flipped and the nukes successfully irradiated the planet, were evacuated en masse and then taken in by the galactic civilization at large. I’ll probably write a few more in this silly, comfy alternate timeline to expand on what’s different, but don’t take it too seriously, okay? I do not take credit for the original setting, this story is set in an alternate version of the 'They are Smol' universe, written by the one, the only u/tinyprancinghorse.TPH takes many forms and is known by many names. He is like Nyarlathotep, only smaller and cuter and more prancey. TPH also has a Website and a Patreon.
