《The Dungeon Of A Forest God》Announcement
Advertisement
I think I need to make a small adjustment in the skill system of this story, but I'm not sure if you guys would feel like it or not. As the result, I make this announcement to ask you guys for a suggestion. The changes won't make any major changes in the story at this point because the skills and especially the magic system are still not introduced much. The reasons for making this change are:
1. The skill system and the magic system are overlapping too much. Sometimes, I'm not sure if I should put an ability into the skill system or the magic system. With the new change, this mess will become a lot clearer.
2. This change will make it easier to list the name of abilities a character can use. In the short future, a magical id card system will be introduced to reveal the name of skills a character can use. Under this new change, a big number of abilities will be categorized as skills thus it's easier to reveal.
3. This change will make monsters and magical creatures differ from human. You know, if there is no limitation in using magic, how does a monster differ from a human? Under this change, humans won't be able to use monster abilities. But in exchange, they will become a versatile race instead.
Here are the details of the current systems
Skills
A skill is an ability obtained by unlocking a certain condition or by race. It is less flexible than magic, but the user will know how to use it by instinct when he obtains it, so it's easy to use but hard to obtain.
Magics
A magic is a process to change a natural phenomenon through ritual or spell. A magic is more flexible than a skill that the user can do almost anything as long as he has sufficient knowledge and compensation.

And these are the new systems
Skills
not many changes.
In addition: human can't use skills that alter nature natural phenomenon. They can use skills that boost their physical abilities and strengthen their movements, however. For example, martial art skills, perception skills, self-recovery skills.
Unique skills for monsters/ magical creatures
can alter natural phenomenon. For example, [shadow dive] of Midnight, [Mind link] of Oscar and Lunus
Magics
are replicas of monsters' skills that can alter natural phenomenon. Human and intelligent races use them through rituals and spells. Magics are still under development, so most of them can do only basic sets of control like making fireballs, creating a storm, or the like. The more complex a spell is, the more compensation and knowledge are required.

Journey West 5000

Unstable and weakened, will he be more hindrance than help? Can he become the warrior he once was?A Monk and a Monkey journey across a world...... where the remnants of technology are seen as magic, while pockets of humanity strive to drag themselves out of ignorance.... where the descendants of animal-human hybrids, once created as instruments of war, now seek to dominate the world as demons.... where beings who call themselves Immortals and Gods preoccupy themselves with selfish pastimes, ignoring everything else. Among other things, a story about growth, grit, and being better than the person you were yesterday. Here's my rambling on why I'm writing Journey West 5000. Journey West 5000 is my crazy ambitious writing project to adapt a classic epic called "Journey to the West" for a global, modern audience. It's a sci-fi story disguised as fantasy, and has some road trip + monster of the week elements (as does the original Journey to the West). No system, definitely no harem, gradual power progression. Hmm, what else can I put here so potential readers know what to expect? My writing style for now is mostly "show don't tell", because I believe that readers don't need to have everything pointed out to them, and that they should be allowed to make up their own minds about characters based on the actions of those characters. I'm also trying to be less long-winded (a weakness pointed out by some friends) in order to write according to something Neil Gaiman said, which is to write as though I'm the one who has to pay for every word, not the reader. This will bring down my chapter word counts, and might drive away potential readers, but I believe there's value in learning to compress and be concise. All chapters posted here will have been edited. Constructive criticism, comments, and feedback would be very much welcome and appreciated. Please, please help point out any typos or grammatical mistakes, I'm striving to minimize those as much as possible. Above all, I hope you enjoy my story.

This Game World is rigged against Mobs!!!
I suddenly got my past life memory back, what to do (asking for a friend...)? *Real synopsis: Alean Steelight, son of Baron Steelight, 4th generation of frontier knights, is somehow a mage? And mages can only be supports? In the frontier where dangerous beasts and monsters stalk the land, mages who can't pull their own weight in combat are considered trash. After being dumped by his parents at the Royal Academy, Allean must somehow survive the most heinous place known to mankind, high school. Now if only he didn't suddenly remember that this world is going to end, it would have been much easier on his mind at least. =====================================================*Disclaimer: This is my 1st novel, and English is my 2nd language, so expect some spelling or grammar mistakes. Also plot holes, and generally bad planning and such. Feel free to point out mistakes so I can grow as a writer. Update whenever I have time and inspiration. If you think the name is familiar, I do take inspiration from " The world of Otome Games is Tough for Mobs" and other academy-type novels. *Warning: This novel features references to self-harm, depression, suicide, etc. Viewer discretion is advised If you are uncomfortable with LGBT+ elements in a story in any way, then this novel might not be for you, sorry. The main character is straight/bi-curious, so yeah... Yay teenage hormones and confusion.
