《Hybrid Summoner》Chapter 3- The bigger they are the harder they fall
Advertisement
I remember reading that diamond was the second hardest material known to man and the hardest naturally forming. But there is only one problem that all things that are too rigid have in common. Once they break they shatter. Which means, maybe. Focusing with all his might he formed a weapon from his own soul. At first it was like a fluid but in just an instant it formed into an enormous hammer that would have made a dwarf drool in envy. With a head larger than his chest and the top slightly angled outward it looked drastically oversized for any human. With raised symbols of some kind floating on the sides of the head like holograms the stylized western dragons would give any artist a run for his money.
With a haft almost three quarters as long as his body it was a monster of a weapon, yet he knew it was far from enough. Using his connection to the weapon he made it vibrate with all his considerable will power. He finally heard a low hum and looked back up at the giant right as it looked down at him. Due to the sudden pressure when it appeared he had went into a hyperactive state where his thoughts were considerably faster than normal. They locked eyes for a solid thirty seconds where neither one moved, then the giant grinned.
It was a bloodthirsty thing that was full of Malice and the raw enjoyment of bringing pain to another creature. Within an instant the battle had begun. The Giant roared and the shock wave alone threw him back almost thirty feet, and shook his organs till he spat out a mouth full of blood. He threw himself to the right just in time to avoid the fist that rushed towards him.
With a mad sprint he bolted through the things legs and leaped for its ankle. He floundered when he went right past it’s ankle, then it’s shin, almost to its knee before he bounced off, and rolled off it’s foot. Why is my body so light? And why didn’t that fall hurt nearly as much as it should have. Now it was his turn for a bloodthirsty grin. Without further ado he launched himself straight at the ankle this time, making sure to get just the right amount of spin into his Jump so that his hammer hit at maximum velocity. Just like the giants roar had injured him with shockwaves he was going to use the same principle to bust right through his Diamond skin and shater his bones.
Flaring the vibrations on his hammer an instant before the impact he was taken totally by surprise at the result. In a completely unnatural way the skin caved in around his hammer and he heard a continuous rumble of snaps and pops as the giants foot failed to support him and he started to collapse. With a scream of pain and an enormous shock wave he landed half curled up and reaching for his ankle on reflex. Not missing the opportunity he did the same thing but this time to his wrist and with nearly identical results.
Without missing a beat he dove for the other ankle and repeated the process. Now almost entirely crippled the giant was mad with pain and started thrashing repeatedly. And now is my que to start guerilla tactics. As he bolted out of the giants range he finally relaxed spit out rest of the blood he’d been holding down. Not good, the bleeding won’t stop. Unless i find some healing magic or a potion or something i can only keep going for maybe another hour or two. I need to end this fast or i’m the one that will die first.

With a deep breath to steady himself he dashed toward the back of the giants neck. Nearly every humanoid creature in both fantasy and the previous reality had an inward curve on the back of their neck just above where it connected to their spine, if he could sever it’s spinal column it was as good as dead. Counting on being hard to see on account of his size he slid under its neck and prayed it wouldn’t suddenly spasm or something and crush him. After a few tense minutes the giant seemed to pay more attention on trying to find him. Taking his chance he tensed and put all the force he could manage into the blow.
With a sudden roar of defiance he felt the bone give and crumble but never one to take chances when he could avoid it he absorbed the recoil into a spin and landed another one after a 180 degree spin. He felt his arms and back creak and pop with the strain. The only thing different this time was that the skin ruptured and covered him head to toe in bits broken bone and blood, unfortunately that included all up in his eyes and mouth. With a twitch the giants roar was cut off mid way all tension fled the body. The ground shook as the arms collapsed but he didn’t even bother to look.
He was very busy throwing up his guts off to the bodies left trying to get the nastiness out of his mouth and eyes. Even his internal injuries could be put on hold for that. Nothing like rancid tasting blood with liberal hunks of meat and bone mixed in getting forced down your throat to kill all sense of fulfilment after a near death battle. When there was finally nothing left in his stomach to hurl he straightened up and for a split second he thought he was already dead.
Not twenty feet in front of him, sitting cross legged three feet off the ground was what could pass as a neighborhood grandfather type figure in in a hawaiian T-shirt and jean shorts. It didn’t help his impressions any with what came next.
“Impressive. An interesting choice when faced with a creature that had absolute defence, much more entertaining than most who come through here, although to date only two have managed to make it out alive at all. Very original if i do say so myself, and that qualifies you for the bonus prize. More so actually since he was literally undefeated on his entire planet. So we’ll just upgrade the original reward then shall we.” Now completely and thoroughly thrown for a loop he could only stare blankly as the old man slowly raised his hand and snapped his fingers.
Congratulations you have defeated Gregor the Mountain Giant

Chaos Dragon Monarch
Legendary Myth
Bloodline
100% (Purity)
Chaos Dragon Monarch
Near the dawn of the Cosmos there were no laws to anything. In the midst of this chaotic amalgamation of pure energy only one life form ever managed to evolve and they were later named the Chaos Dragons. It is unclear to any living sentient how they managed to do this but it was eventually discovered that one among them-the first of their kind- possessed the ability to passively absorb this chaos energy and use it to strengthen its body and soul to levels even gods learned to fear. Chaos was the beginning of everything and all creation evolved from chaos originally thus it has been said by most learned scholars that those who master Chaos have in effect mastered creation. To date this has never come even close to being successfully done thus it remains a mere theory.

“Oh, that’s interesting. I never would have thought that the special attribute of the human races bloodline was the ability to merge flawlessly with any other bloodline, and doesn’t seem like it’s only limited to one. Looks like this planets integration was a real diamond in the ruff.” With a look of pleasant surprise on his face the old man seemed to almost be talking with himself.
“Uh, excuse me. I really don’t mean to be rude but um.. No you know what never mind, I’ll figure it out.” He nearly asked what the hell was going on with his world but quickly decided to bite his tongue. The only time back talking what might as well be the equivalent of a god right in front of him ever worked out was in comic books and third rate short stories. “Thank for this great gift sir.”
I have no idea where exactly on the galactic power scale this would fall exactly but there’s no way in hell it would be weak considering what i just had to do to get it, plus the fact that this is the product of multiple supposedly high class rewards being combined into one. I can totally figure the rest out without possibly pissing off or annoying a god level entity or whatever the hell he is.
All these thoughts flashed by in the blink of an eye but he was still sweating from the mistake he almost just made. “HAHAHAHAHA. Wow i haven’t heard something that made that much sense in decades.” It painted a very odd picture to see what looked like a sixty year old man rolling around in mid air like a tenager watching a comedy TV series. “Wow I don’t know whether your Instinct is off the charts or if your deduction skills are just that good.”
With a huge grin and wiping a literal tear out of his eyes from laughing so hard he finally looked back over and sat back up in his original posture. “First you guessed right, secondly i’m only a god compared to someone of your level and lastly the universe is a vast place with an unknown hundreds of thousands of planets in in countless solar systems over multiple dimensions. You as a race have a lot to learn before you can even claim to now a fraction of what you will need to to survive in your new reality. Good luck and try not to die too soon.”
With a pop he found himself back in the same position he was in before he left. With a sense of deja vu he listened as yet another series of Dings pounded across the surface of his brain.

The Perks of Immortality
This story will no longer be updated. After living decades and dying hundreds of times, Kegan has learned that he has finally passed some test that the cruel spirit had given him. Now, Kegan has the ability to gain “perks” that can make his life much easier. He is looking forward to finally having an easy life with the new perks he has earned. Rules to keep me honest for the perk system: Spoiler: Spoiler 1. The purpose of perks is to help the MC live longer and do new things each life. 2. The perks can be unlocked by getting hurt or killed. 3. The perks can be unlocked by putting in a lot of effort that isn’t easily duplicated in a new life. 4. Perks are generally beneficial enhancements to the MC’s body. 5. Perk costs can be lowered with more impressive achievements to unlock them. 6. Perk costs can be lowered by repeated death or injury from something the perk protects against. 7. Perk costs are increased for quality of life improvements that don’t benefit survival. I want to avoid one of the pitfalls I see for other LitRPG stories where the game elements barely relate to the story, or offer very little information. If people are skipping over and not reading the perks then I'm doing things wrong. So I promise to try and make the perks interesting, sometimes humorous, informative, and relevant to the story.Cover art by http://dertypaws.com/

The carnomancer
Jackson was but a normal american just looking to get by in life. unfortunately for him life had other plans as a terrorist bombing took place in the air port in london where he was getting off at. The resulting explosion killed him instantly, and now he has been reincarnated into the world of Rokna.In this new world of magic, monsters, and conflict join him under his new identity Adimir freelancer the adventurer half-elf as he seeks a way to live out an exciting life of researching new and creative ways of combining magic and science. But with a tyrannical empire beginning to prepare for a bloody war the signs of turmoil begin to loom on the horizon. Adimir will face numerous challenges. Both challenges to those native to this world, and against other people have come from earth. Author's comment: I'll be uprfont with you on the entire war thing that the description hints at. Yes it will eventually happen, and many of the strange and out of place things in the beginning will tie into that. Not that it will be explained until much later in the novel. In fact the first 100 or 200 chapters will be spent on the main character growing stronger as an adventurer before the entire war even begins to start rearing its ugly head. So for those eager for the war to kick off sorry, but there won't be a big explosive war so early. At least not with the empire (although if you read carefully you may be able to pick up signs of how close the war is with what happens in the story). But the wait (I hope) will be worth it as it will be diving into some of the stuff a otherworlder in a significant position of power could do with the right knowledge. With that little warning over with I hope you enjoy this novel of mine. Its my first actual attempt at writing a story for people to read so please keep that in mind. If you have any criticism please tell me. I'd love to read them and will be using them to help me in improving my writing quality as time goes on. Experience is the best teacher after all.
