《Drunk Dungeon》Chapter 3

"Okay, so what do I do first?" Robert asked.
"First," the voice said. "You need to imagine a source of energy that you draw from, it can be any shape or color and can be wherever you want it to be. You just need to imagine a source of energy."
Robert nodded or did the best attempt a fist-sized diamond could which slightly shift around.
Robert imagined a source of energy inside themself. Power bubbling in a still pond, all is peaceful, all is tranquil. Slowly, a form of energy started to gather inside the image. Power building up. The pond didn't change at all even when Robert felt like the energy was overflowing.
"How do you feel?" The voice asked.
"Overflowing," was all Robert could mutter. The energy now was getting intense, magical power flowing into the pond like an undiluted river of energy.
The small pool of water still stayed the same though, with no slight ripple, no slight bubble, just perfect uniformity in the water.
As the power continued to flow into the pond. The voice reached into Robert's mind. "Robert, Robert! Stop!" The voice yelled. The sound finally penetrating Robert's mind.
Robert quickly voiced the command to the raging torrent of power that was flowing inside their pond. The energy stopped after several seconds. The power slowly turning into a trickle of power, then none.
Robert quickly dragged themselves out of the image in their head? Diamond? And looked to see the voice. Its body to be exact.
Robert had never seen the voice up too now, it had always been just that, the voice. But now, a silver wisp of energy in the vague shape of a winged four-limbed animal with three circles blooping out of its skull. The appearance would've been freaky to any normal sentient. But to Robert, they were more excited about the ability to see the voice.

"Robert, you okay?" The voice asked. The silver body in front of Robert opening its head down the middle and released small puffs of smoke at each word it said.
"Y-yeah, is that how you look like?" Robert asked in awe.
"Yeah, yeah it is. Quick question, what do you see me as?"
Robert told the voice what they saw and the voice let out a roar of pure frustration. While normally Robert would've been taken aback by the explosion of sound. This one was different, energy flowed out of the voice's appearance, tainted that of an azure green.
The power made contact with Robert and in a flash, Robert felt something. their first emotion, they felt rage in its most quintessential form. The emotion quickly ran out, with Robert feeling surprised at the sudden passing of it. But they quickly took note of how the energy inside their pool was slightly bigger.
"Okay, sorry about that. Just needed to change somethings."
Robert turned to look at the voice and was met with something startlingly different than what they had first seen before. A small head popped out of a torso, with two little 3d lines extending outwards and ending in points. A small semi-sharp feature stuck out of the middle of the voice's face. With two ovals with tiny lines running above them dotting each side of the voice's front-facing head. Eyes.
A long thin piece of silver gas ran to the torso of the voice. The gas quickly turning into a neck, the torso was covered in a piece of secondary skin, cloth, that ran around the voice's entire torso and most of the legs.
The two pieces of the voice's body not covered in the cloth were two small flat pieces of gas and two thin pieces ending in the same flat pieces of gas like the legs did, just shaped weirdly. Hands, feet, and arms. Everything that was the voice was made up of random colors, things that they had never seen.

The information was too much. New knowledge that had previously gone unnoticed flowed into Robert's mind like a damn, and they felt something inside them fill up. Knowledge about that of Dungeons, Systems, and summons filled up their mind.
In an instant, Robert blacked out.
Robert awoke to the voice cursing over them. Calling them many names, including that of a fuckwit. Whatever that was.
As Robert's consciousness emerged from their blackout. They noticed several things about the voice.
First of all, the entire dress was that of a crimson red, with exposed skin around her being that of a dull green.
"Finally, can you believe how long it took you to wake up!?" The voice said.
"I-I don't know?" Robert replied, the info inside their brain still having not settled down.
"Of course you don't. Anyway, look at your screen. We can finally start moving towards creating a Dungeon."
"Screen?" Robert asked before a prompt appeared before them.
Congratulations! You have entered the Alpha Recordings! Please examine your Status Screen to utilize all the functions available to you!
Click Here!
Without anything left to go on, Robert tried to click, they immediately felt a tiny bit of power drain from their pond. The slight decrease was almost unnoticeable, but Robert still felt it.
Name: Robert Class: None Race: Dungeon
Status: STR: 3 DUR: 20 CON: 6 Skills: Magic, Energy Sight, Create Being, Create Object, Modify, Breed, Combine
The screen in front of Robert was just the basic parts. With a simple search, they could find dozens of screens that measured overall healthiness. Stamina gain/loss, and healing rate as well. It was surprising that all of the statuses came back as zero.
Robert even found dozens of stats that weren't included on their status screen, all of them being zero.
An example of some would-be vitality and endurance for one.
"You done looking yet?" The voice asked.
Robert turned to look at the voice before replying, "Yes, for now at least."
The voice let out a grin. "Good, now. We are going to begin the most exciting part of your life!"
"We're gonna be building a Dungeon!"

Soulmancer
A fantasy LitRPG filled to the brim with soul summoning and all things soulmancy. Mat couldn't have known he'd wake up with a full suit of armor. He was half expecting a crippling hangover, and the other half a face full of drawn penises. He got neither, which was good, but not enough to justify him being out in the middle of nowhere under the pouring rain with very heavy metal armor on. When he saw the dead bodies on the ground, it finally dawned on him he wasn't anywhere close to home. Not one bit. Things happened after the next, and after hours on end he found himself facing off against a giant of a beast out in the middle of the woods. And if that wasn't enough, he then got held at knifepoint by three naked bunny girls in a nearby river. Things were getting weirder and weirder by the day, but he was determined to make it through and hold on in this new world he magically found himself in. Still, a strong will and magic powers aren't the only things he needed to survive. He'll also need souls- a lot of them, and a trio of bunny girls to help him with magic algebra and basic physical fitness. 6 chapters per week. Image taken from shutterstock.

A Place to Belong - A LitRPG Adventure
Levi was happy with the life he had built for himself. He had a stable job, decent lodgings, and every weekend he alternated between hiking and biking in the mountains outside of town to keep in shape. There might have been downsides, like no real family or friends and an ex-girlfriend he would rather not think about, but he thought his dad would be proud of what he had done with his life. Levi was content with his prefect walled in regimented life, and even if there was a small part of him that wanted more, wanted actual meaningful relationships, he kept that part of him tightly locked away. Those relationships weren’t worth the pain they inevitably caused. But when a powerful supernatural force sweeps through Earth, Levi finds himself forced into a new environment, the social mask he used before no longer valid. With no choice but to survive and grow, he now needs to confront those feelings he thought he locked away for good.

Journey West 5000
With her parents murdered and her brother abducted, a trainee Monk of the Gun pursues the one responsible, the Bull Demon King, undefeated Warlord of the Crimson Army.Struggling to track down her enemy while braving the dangers of the wilds, she enlists the help of Sun Wukong, but 500 years under a mountain have taken its toll. 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.
