《Rise of the Empress of Stars》3 Years Later
Advertisement
As the sun sets over the horizon, we can see a group of shads flashing at speeds beyond the reach of humans near a forest at the foot of the mountain in Tibet.
'Time flew by in the blink of an eye and I am nearly 4 years old in a week. In the past couple of years, I have stayed along with my parents and their trusted subordinates at the village with the monastery. The training went as planned and the results were quite satisfactory.'
Looking at the rapidly approaching shadows from the forest, Zera got a few towels along with a couple of bottles of water.
Zale came to a stop near Zera raising a cloud of dust at his feet. Looking behind him," It feels great after reaching Level-4 Human Evolutionary. I can easily leave others at Level-3 by more than dozens of seconds. The reaction, senses, strength, and everything has reached a new high as I can easily beat down a couple of Level-3 together which wasn't quite possible before." Zale said, not specifically talking to anyone.
Sylvia, who is sitting beside Zera and classifying the recently discovered variety of plants, took a look at Zale and rolled her eyes," What till I reach Level-4 in a few weeks and see if you still keep up your proud look." Said Sylvia, irritated by Zale's repeated provocation as he overtook her in Evolution.
Zera has a smile in her eyes as she watches her parents bickering and turned back to look at the others who are approaching quickly from the forest.
'Hm...Uncle Fred seems to be the one leading ahead, followed by Uncle Hendrick, Aunt Triana, Uncle Jander, Aunt Irene who are all in Level-3 Human Evolutionary stage, and the rest who are at level-2 peak Human Evolutionary stage ready to break through at any time.'

'I am still at level-1 as I was 3 years ago as it is not recommended to start the evolution above level-1 before the age of 4 while Inora, Ren, and Lancer have already started training and went to Level-2 a while ago.'
'The herbs needed for body strengthening were finally found about 2 months ago and they will be delivered to my grandparent's house in a few days as we are going to return after I have celebrated my birthday in a week.'
'Mom has already collected various reports about the munitions of vegetation on earth along with mutations in some humans and animals which are still quite subtle to notice at this stage. Dad seems to have collected the report last night, on the expansion of the planet from his friend who has access to government satellites pulling in some favors. Should take a look at that later, It will be easy to estimate the time remaining for the final transformation of the planet.'
Looking at her daughter who seems to have been caught in a daze again, Sylvia shook her head amusedly and tapped her head, and said," What are you cooking up again in that little head of yours, Zera? It better not be another torturous training I hope, look at the way they are looking at you. Like an evil officer in a concentration camp."
Zera woke up from the daze and covered her head with her hands as her eyes teared up. Turning to look at her mom and said," Mom can you please not tap me anymore before you can control your strength! You are already a Level-3 who is about to reach the Level-4 Human Evolutionary stage soon. I going to become stupid and be stunted if this goes on. Also, it hurts really bad."

Sylvia took her hand back with a guilty conscience and said,” That...Hmm...Sorry dear, it won’t happen again.” Then she rubbed her head and made her hair into a veritable bird's nest as Zera was trying to get her paws off her.
“Where are your little brothers Zera? I didn't see them the whole day yesterday and even in the morning.” Sylvia was quite puzzled as they always followed behind her daughter like little tails.
At the mention of them, Zera’s lips twitched a little and said,” They said as this is the last week before we return they want to enjoy the natural environment here and took a professional leave. Saying that I didn’t follow the Law as they didn’t get any holiday in the training for the last three years.”
Sylvia started laughing after being stunned for a while,” You know what let us also take a break and enjoy a little before we go back and get back. We will have a lot of things to do after returning home.”
“I just need to be a lazy second-generation ancestor while eating, playing, and training. No one can stop me from being lazy.” Zera declared her ambitions after the return.
“We will see then, Dear!” Sylvia said amusedly as she watched Zera puffing her cheeks, raising her hand high to take her future plans.
‘Ren, Lancer, and Inora are also going to their home for two weeks before we meet again at my grandparent's house in Askvoll, Netherlands. It is a quiet seaside town with mountains behind it.’
‘Dad has already fooled his family to come there saying that he will leave the mercenaries and return if they come there for a vacation. I am pretty sure grandpa is going to be livid when he knows he is taken as a fool.’
Conforming that everyone has rested enough Sylvia declared the end of training for now and invited to the birthday party in a week while sharing where to reach after the vocation at a later date.
Time went by quickly as the day of departure arrived, we boarded the helicopter back to the airport. Looking at the rolling hills and their valleys disappearing over the horizon, where she has spent the past 4 years since birth, Zera is excited looking forward to her new life on a new planet and the start of her glory in a new dimension.

Epoch: An NPC's Tale
Epoch is a slow-burn LitRPG/Gamelit novel that tells the story of Luke, later named Lucius—a natural inhabitant of the game-like realm of Elyssia where thousands upon thousands of detached, virtually unkillable entities known as the Players were suddenly introduced right after the dusk of the magnificent Age of Heroes. Shortly after the Players arrived, the balance of power in Elyssia instantly shifted. Kingdoms fell, wars were waged, alliances between races were made, and Lucius, after ten years of training in captivity, found himself being used as a pawn in a prophecy that he had no intention to fulfill. With aspirations and desires of his own, Lucius must find a way to cautiously adapt to the drastic changes in the very foundations of the realm after being sent 300 years into a future that was forever altered by the outcome of the war that his captors had lost and the Players won in a victory that resounded throughout the ages, all for a terrible price. Author's Note As an avid fan of the LitRPG genre myself, I wrote this novel with character progression, heavy Gamelit elements, and some degree of world-building in mind. If you like these, please feel free to give this novel a try. Oh, and the MC is also an NPC, in a sense. And wait, isn't this also an isekai story? Well, it's all a bit complicated to explain here. Maybe you should start reading now?
