《Changing My Life with A Level System》5. David
Advertisement
As soon as his eyes were closed the whole world started to spin around him, in the beginning, it was barely moving but soon its pace reached an unthinkable speed, all images in his head started to blur and soon only nothingness was left.
He stood in the middle of a dazzling clean, white room, from here on out he knew exactly what to do.
"Orbisterra would you please connect me with the new Fantasy VRMMORPG?"
"Requesting connection to the World of Nelenia" a synthetic voice rang in his ears.
One of Bao's feet went up and down on the white floor as fast as a machine blaster but no sound was heard.
"Request granted, welcome to Nelenia."
"Finally!"
"Characters resembling user will be randomly generated."
"What?! I can't even customize my own avatar!"
"I am sorry to hear that you are unhappy with our service, but due to the current development stage of the game, customizable characters are not an option. Would you like to continue regardless of the problem?"
"Sigh... yes continue."
"Only one character could be generated due to special version Xavier number 2.6712.16, would you like to continue?"
"Yes, yes continue. This is not how I imagined my first VRMMORPG experience, this game better be good." he complained. How did it come this far? To betray his family for such a broken game, he wondered with regret in his eyes.
A big window appeared in front of him, bringing some colour into the triste sterile room, it was an image of his character in Nelenia and a small text describing its stats, skills, level and backstory. His avatar had really its similarities with him, just like Orbisterra said, it had barely enough muscles to wield a simple wooden stick and its clothes were patched in several places, not that they were looking good in the first place.

"David, 16 years old from the human race, level 0" Bao started to read the description on the other side of the panel
"This is the first time I see an RPG where you can start with a level below 1."
"David is the third son of a simple farmer family and as such he has little hope to inherit any of his family wealth therefore, in his coming of age ceremony, he decides to leave home to become an adventurer whose tales will be told throughout the whole kingdom. And despite his frail body and little knowledge of the world, he marched towards his goal against all odds.
Stats:
[David - Level 0]
[HP: 5/5]
[MP: 0/0]
[Strength: 1]
[Perception: 2]
[Endurance: 0]

What's up with those trashy stats? And his equipment is even worse, a single loaf of hard bread, his rags he is wearing and a wooden staff as a weapon, not to mention that insulting title."
"Please note that Nelenia has a permadeath system which in your case would result in not being able to play the game anymore since you have only one character at your disposition. Also please remember that the world in Nelenia will continue also after your logout, which means that an AI will take over your avatar during your absence, would you like to continue?"
"This game is shitting me! I understand that the world continues even after logout but permadeath!"
"Would you like to continue?"
"I didn't talk to you Orbisterra, give me a sec to think about it. But since this will be my last dive, permadeath shouldn't be too big of a problem. What really bugs me though is that I need to play a weak-ass character just like myself in real life, who thought that would be a good idea? Well, I guess the irony of life isn't it."
"Would you like to continue?"
"Yes."

Dungeon Devotee
Through all of Linaria, no dungeon holds such a grip on the dreams of men as the Eternal Depths. Hundreds throw themselves against its trials each day. Dozens survive, walking away with power and wealth beyond their wildest dreams… until they go back for more. One way or another, they all eventually feed the Depths. Edmund Montgomery Ahab has sworn to destroy it. Underleveled, undertrained, and underprepared, Edmund steps into the maw of the world’s greatest predator, a sword in his hand and vengeance on his mind. At first his task seems impossible, but with every level he earns, every piece of loot that drops, every secret he uncovers, and especially every bit of power he can squeeze from his mysterious connection to the Aspect of Madness, Edmund crawls closer to accomplishing that insurmountable feat. With nothing else to lose, Edmund has already given the Depths his life. All that remains to be seen is whether he takes the dungeon’s right back. Dungeon Devotee is an episodic serial. It will never be taken down for KU. Each chapter details a single floor of Edmund’s journey through the vast Eternal Depths, with all the levels and loot and lack of cliffhangers that entails. New chapters come out on the first of each month.

Life is Feudal
No OP stuff, status bars, levels or skills. This story is in favour of more realistic setting in a world of humans and various monsters. "Behind the mask of the assertive, resolute facade that employs ruthless routes at any given moment, lies the frail, anxious heart that were once but a puny human. Reviled and revered by many, none would ever know my true allegiance lies within myself, merely trying to survive this mess." Just the life of a grumpy man child living in a terrible piece of shit or a desolate state in which I call an alternate historical take on medieval Europe. Living as a peasant who is forced to take up arms to defend his own kin. This story grants an insightful take on the life of people living under constant danger, from vying nobles who commit atrocities in the name of justice, eager nations and barbarians aiming to take a piece of the bountiful land and mythical divine monsters who resembles a walking catastrophe in any possible way. [If you're easily offended by alternate-history religion and cultural practices, then you shouldn't read this.]
