["Are you sure you want to consume 1000 experience points? "]
A golden window screen appeared in front of him.
'Yes, I'm 100% sure.' Zheng confirmed without hesitation.
["Congratulations. You are now level 2!"]
["Equally distributing 20 status points on your available stats ... Completed."]
["Congratulations. You received an additional 10 status points. You can use these status points to increase your available stats(Strength, Stamina, Intelligence, Endurance, and Agility) ]
'It appears that I can have 30 stats points when I leveled up. I will keep this in mind. Well, where should I put them? Strength is great but what I need right now are mobility and survivability.'
'System put everything on Agility stats.'
["Congratulations, Agility increases by 10."]
["You still have 7500 experience points. Do you want to consume 1500 experience points to gain another level?"]
'I need to use everything I have. Fortunately, I have loads of experience points. Yes, I want to level up.' Without a second thought, 1500 experienced points vanished on Zheng's character window screen.
["Congratulations. You are now level 3!"]
["Equally distributing 20 status points on your available stats ... Completed."]
["Congratulations. You received 10 stats points. You can use these stats points to increase your available stats(Strength, Stamina, Intelligence, Endurance, and Agility) ]
'Put everything on Agility stats.'
["Congratulations, Agility increases by 10."]
["You still have 6000 experience points. Do you want to consume 2500 experience points to gain another level?"]
'Yes.'
["Congratulations. You are now level 4!"]
["Equally distributing 20 status points on your available stats ... Completed."]
["Congratulations. You received 10 stats points. You can use these stats points to increase your available stats(Strength, Stamina, Intelligence, Endurance, and Agility) ]
'Put everything on Agility.'
["Congratulations, Agility increases by 10."]

["4000 experience points are needed for the next level. You only have 3500 experience points. Unable to proceed."]
'I leveled up three times.'
["Congratulations! You now have 65 points on Agility! 100 Power stone points received!"]
[" Hundred Steps (Active) skill was unlocked! "]
'A Skill?! This is great!' Zheng hurriedly opened up the skill description and read it.
["Hundred Steps (Active)
Grants 10% on users movement speed.
Grants 10% Evasion rate.
Requires five stamina per seconds."]
'I'm glad I made the right choice.' Zheng let out a sigh.. 'I still have points remaining.'
[" Character Information

'Swift's probability is very low. The new skill will be the right choice. Level up Hundred Steps. If possible, use my remaining experience points.'
Zheng barely glanced at his character window screen as the situation was not in their favor.
["Calculating..... Are you sure you want to consume 3400 experience points to level up Hundred Steps to level 4?"]
'Yes, I'm 100% sure.' Zheng confirmed and prayed that he made the right choice.
["Congratulations, Hundred Steps is now level 4!"]
[" Hundred Steps (Active) skill was unlocked! "]
["Hundred Steps (Active) (Lvl. 4)
Effect:
Grants 35% on users movement speed.
Grants 50% Evasion rate.
Requires five stamina per seconds."]
'Sweet. I need to --.' Zheng immediately dismissed his skill and character window screen as one of the wolves charged at him.
'I don't have any weapon but still, have my body. Time to use my new skill!'

'Activate Hundred Steps.' Zheng initiated his new found skill and lunged forward.
"Whoosh!"
'!!!' But an unexpected thing happened that even Zheng himself was surprised.
"What the hell happened? Where is the wolf?" Zheng was baffled.
"Behind you, Master!" Gozu shouted from afar.
'Behind?' Zheng turned his head around and saw the wolf, 'Why are you there? What's happening?'
Zheng was confused and recalled what happened, 'Wait a minute... is this perhaps the effect of Hundred Steps?'
Zheng stared at his feet and found something remarkable about it, 'There's a green smoke surrounding my feet.'
'I need to confirm it.' Zheng charged at the wolf as he observed his surroundings.
"Whoosh!"
'!!!'
'This is!!!?' Zheng felt it. The gust of the wind as he ran. 'My surroundings became blurry as I ran.'
'This is gonna be fun.' Zheng smiled and turned around. 'I'm still not used to it, but I need to do it slowly and gently.'
Again, Zheng ran. But this time, he tried reducing his speed.
A gust of wind blasted the moment he moves. 'This will be gonna be fun!'
Far away from him, 'What is hell is happening? Master suddenly vanished and appeared somewhere the moment he steps his foot.' Gozu's mouth was left wide open. He doesn't understand what happened.
'What kind of speed was this?' Ron who was the personal guard of Queen Neina was even shocked beyond belief. 'How can this little man reach this kind of speed?'
No matter how hard he tried it, he can't keep up on Zheng's speed.
Suddenly a terrible gust of wind blew his head off.
'Grhhh!'
Ron has blasted away and crashed in the nearby tree. Blood spurted out of his mouth, 'What.. the..hell.. happened? that brat... Queen..'
Just like that, with a single punched, Ron breathed his last breath.
"Critical! -200 damage."
"Critical! -82 damage."
Above Ron's head, Zheng saw a floating number.
Zheng blinked multiple times in disbelief. Soon, Zheng heard two notifications.
["You killed a level 10 Stray Wolf"]
["You received 1500 experience points!"]
The other wolf, Roa was even more terrified. He looked at Ron's corpse in confusion. 'Ron..'
'This is my chance!'
Roa was not even aware that someone was looking at him as if he was already dead.
Zheng didn't let this chance slipped by and rushed forward on the confused Roa.
"Take this!!"
Zheng threw a wild punched on Roa. His aim was Roa's face.
"!!!"
"-180 damage."
A floating number appeared before Zheng.
But he saw the wolf was still alive. "Then take this!" Zheng clenched his fist and attacked with a big right overhand punch.
"-133 damage."
Roa flew by the power of the punch and crushed to the ground. Lifeless.
["You killed a level 12 Stray Wolf"]
["You received 1800 experience points!"]

Meek
After failing as an apprentice cooper and a town guard, Eli finds his place at the Rockbridge archives. Sure, he's the oldest 'junior scribe,' but he likes the job. And he's good at it, too. Then he completes an apparently-insignificant project, and the brutal reaction shocks him--with consequences that eventually shake the world. Eli gains powers. Rare and inhuman abilities. He progresses slowly, steadily, and not without setbacks. He changes, too. Is he a hero, a villain, a human, a monster? Depends who you ask. Meek is an epic fantasy with elements of progression. The basic magic is simple: five Paths, each with a different powerset. However, complexity arises from combinations, and the protagonist wields a magic all his own. Meek is set in the Valley, the only (as far as anyone knows) human empire that survived a Final Battle against a terrible foe. The Valley is warded against infiltration, but the enemy learned how to warp human souls, to foment discord within. However, another soul is also ... changed. Perhaps even 'warped.' And that soul is starting on a long (long, long) path that might, one day, prove that the Final Battle wasn't so final after all.

Dip$h!+s in Space
An eccentric comedy novel (that thinks it's a TV show) about space, and the Dipsh!+s that end up stranded in it. This hyper-self-aware comedy of stupid proportions, centers around Captain William T Lawg (no relation) and his adventures as a guy who managed to afford a refitted soft-top ice-cream truck, in space. Explore the universe with his trusty crew of valiant randos. Marley, the tech-bro, stoner spacebunny, who just wants to get away from his home world and the bullies it harbors. Duffy, the plump and sassy female mechanic, who has had every job in existence totaling far more years than possible. Roy, the frigging fabulous, flamboyant android, and former spy…or possibly current spy. (dun dun, daaaa!) And lastly, but certainly leastly, that other chick the captain keeps trying to bang. Ride with the crew of the notorious Tast-E-Chill, to a world of wonder that a lot of other space travelers have already been before, but probably not Lawg, so it's still exciting. This satirical joke on itself and every sci-fi trope ever to exist, will be sure to either thrill you or disappoint you, because COMEDY…IS…SUBJECTIVE! With a crew of 3-10 and an IQ of also probably 3-10, The captain putters along to uncharted lands, where history, loot, drama, innuendos of the sexual verity, and various Technicolor hoes shall surely be waiting, usually with some form of trap. Each season brings new and interesting crewmen, like: Menace: the adorable genderless frog-child-thing with the heart of gold and the dialogue vocabulary of a slightly trained parrot. Greg: the 8 foot tall, ancient, thermonuclear, semi-retired alien overlord who just wants to prove he still has a purpose…and also to rule the galaxy. Izzy: a 3rd generation, age-reversed reboot, accidental clone of her own mother/sister/older self, who happens to be Greg's daughter-in-law…and much, much more. Prepare yourself for shallow adventure, moderately-to high offensive dialogue, and overwhelmingly childish scenarios. Tag along as the crew battles, fierce enemies, lack of food and survival tape, and occasionally their own incompetence. Teen Romance, current politics, subtlety, dignity, this sucker has none of those, and it darn well knows it. Raise the sails and grab the rails as a bunch of dipsh!+s find themselves...IN SPACE. (Roll dramatic tapering credits, to royalty free trumpet music)
