《What's This Fiction ? A Very Incomplete Project.》Fishing
Advertisement
A man sits on a boat, alone.
His entire body is quite relaxed. He has a fishroad in hand, cast into the waters of reality.
"Man, fishing for followers is boring", he says. "Feels like I won't catch much more on this little expedition off the coast".
The man awaits still. He's rather small, for a grown man. Only measures about a meter and sixty centimeters, or five feet and three inches. Disorganized and dark hair flow from his head to his shoulders, swaying to the occasional wind.
He is unbothered.
"I'm kinda happy I catched a new follower with that last little bait", he mutters, with a slight uptilt to his voice.
He looks at the wavy water beneath his boat for a few minutes.
"I'm too lazy to row back to the shore..."
He crosses his legs and bounces his supporting leg for a bit.
He sighs. " 'Guess I'll drift for a bit more, that can't hurt. Maybe I'll even catch a new one."
The sun falls slowly from the sky. Light diminishes. The water calmly carries the boat.
The pale man closed his eyes while this happened. His breath slow and steady.
Darkness descends. The moon ascends. The boat is wooden. And static.
He yawns, then stretches himself. After a few more stretches, he opens his eyes.
"Eh, time passes so fast when you sleep ! Should'a seen this coming a mile away. What'm I s'pposed t'do now that it's this late...", says he while looking around. He cannot see land, nor light.
" 's a bit too dark for me to safely go back to th'shore. Could hit a reef, here, since I don't know how much I drifted, neither in what direction." He shrugs. "Drifting's fine, tho... Day'll come, after all."

He casts his line. "Midnight fishin's a fine pass-time, I'd bet. Let's try it out."
He smiles. And looks deep into the water.
His gaze pierces it. And his sight catches you.
"A fine one right here", he thinks. "I've seen it bein' 'round here since this afternoon, but it hasn't bitten."
"I'd recognize one like that anytime, 's'quite big compared to th'rest. Slippery, but gleams silvery."
"I wonder if I'll finally get it, now."
Meanwhile, you wonder what he's thinking about, and what to do.

Trashmancer
Average Chapter Length: 3,000 Words. Updates: Whenever I finish a chapter. Synopsis: Down on his luck, Eddie decided to enter the VRMMORPG Chronicles Of Fantasy with hopes of becoming a powerful monster slaying, magic slinging, princess-loving player, but a round of thieves chucked him deep into the trash pit underneath Arindought. Without hope of getting out, or making a new character, he ventures forwards through piles of trash- literally. Join our paste-eating main character, a snarky but helpful system, and more than two dimensional side characters, as they explore and deal with problems within the game. Spectacular magic? Over-sized breasts? “Onee-chan?” No, I’m sorry (Especially for the last bit). This is no drug fueled story about getting trapped in a video game with an evil AI or a cute bunny-girl harem isekai. It’s just about Eddie, his trash, and his journey in his first gaming venture. This book will be published on kindle after its completion. That means that the chapters will have to be deleted. So please, get reading! [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Will he get over his past and really turn a new leaf??? Will a place where law of jungle has long seeped into the society allow him lead a pleasant life without any carnage or bloodshed?????? ------------- Warning: About Story The Inheritor will be your standard reincarnation fantasy in a futuristic setup with cultivation being a mainstream occupation. Though it's a standard novel with Reincarnation and Cultivation 'The Inheritor' is not a HAREM and it'll have Romance. The action might take the back seat in the first part of the book. About the Author This is my first novel or any attempt to write something so I'm pretty much a newbie trying to pen down the fantasies rolling in my mind. English isn't my First language so brace yourself for some grammatic potholes. But I'm genuinely working on improving my English but it won't be happening overnight as it's a process, I guess. (for the time being, I'm trying to make it readable with some Grammar checking software) Moreover, I wish to improve my writing skills as the story grows and readers help in spotting mistakes or critics might turn it into a reality.
