Advertisement
He checks the forum to see why the servers are closing. He opens the TRINITY website to open the game forum. He saw many post about the shut down of server and many complains.
TRINITY release a post that says that they don't have a the power to control the game, it's closing of servers were related and manage by the gaming AI MINERVA. And according to her the closing of the server this time was because of the progress the story of the game advance to a new phase, the system would commence an update. The update will need 36 hours to complete.
MINERVA said that there are certain quest that if completed will progress the story of the game to a new phase. And this quest would depend on the choices made by the player. This quest are unique that once failed, it cannot be taken again and will have an affect in game.
After knowing the reason behind the announcement he started checking other post and articles related to the game. There were so many post about the game, some are guides for the newbies, other are just nonsense. He also saw someone buying gold from other and some were buying and selling items and weapons.
He also saw a thread regarding "SunGod". He started reading it to know more about this player. It has some ads recruiting players to join the guild "Gods of War". Some were speculating about the class he change into. There was no concrete information he can find about "SunGod", just many players talking about him. "It's a given, for he is the first to be achieve world announcement" Kira thought to him self.
He browse through the forum and reads what he think is relevant or interesting. In this first week of the game, many things happened. He also notice that among the top guilds, "Gods of War" receive many recruits, so now the all the guilds are racing to achieve the next world announcement to promote their respective guilds.

After he was done browsing, he decided to rest.
====================
Early in the morning, Kira was doing his run. He was wearing a black jogging pants, a red hoodie and his thick glasses. He also didn't forget to bring his wallet for when he go to the grocery after his run.
As he was running, he was looking everywhere as if trying to find something or someone. He was looking for the beautiful lady he saw when he first run. He knows that she doesn't run everyday, all this time he just saw her twice. So now he was looking around hoping to see her today. He know that he couldn't talk to her but just looking at her was enough for Kira.
When he was done with he morning run, he was disappointed cause he didn't get to see her. Feeling down, he started walking towards the super market to buy their food for the next week.
He arrive at his apartment with bags and bags of groceries. "It's a good thing that I've started working out, if not i don't think I can carry all of this." Kira thought to himself. He place all the groceries on the fridge and head to the gym for his training.
He arrives to see Lynch inside and it seems that he will just start training. They both started training their body. They make different stance and maintain it, it was to for flexibility of muscles.
After practicing different stances, they decided to spar. This will help them train their reflexes. At first Lynch was using different forms and having the upper hand. But as time went on kira started getting used to it, the punch and kicks started slowing in front of him. This is the work of his super human reflexes. Now that he trained his body, his eyes can sync with his body properly and reveal the potential of his reflexes.
The longer they spar, Lynch was starting to be pushed back, his punches and kicks didn't connect like moments ago. He became startled because Kira just started training his body for like a month but he can achieve this already. He became excited to see the limit his friend can so he started getting serious.

After their training Kira were sprawled in the floor, panting and sweating.
"Fuck you, why do you have to get serious? It hurts you know." Kira shouted to his friend.
"Haha, you have yourself to blame. If you didn't improve this quickly I would have go easy on you." Lynch just laugh. But inside he was excited, he didn't expect his friend to improve this quickly, if he train more, maybe he can beat him.
"By the way, since you don't have plan for today, come with me, were going somewhere to play." Lynch said amusingly.
"Where would we go?" Kira answered.
"Remember last night i receive a call? It was from my mother, she called to me say that i should i visit home. She also said that I should bring you too." Lynch said.
"Why? What's the occasion? And beside, why would your mother invite me?" Kira asked.
"Come on, don't brood yourself here in this apartment. You have to come out every now and then. ." Lynch said as to convince his friend.
"Yes, I know that, but why would your mother invite me? I think I better not go." Kira said to his friend resolutely.
"It's just this one, you know. Come on,go home with me, my mother even invited you. You do know it's rude to reject my mother, remember the last time we didn't do what she asked us?" Lynch said as he shiver remembering that memory he locked up.
======================
12 years ago, when kira was only five.
Lynch always invited him to his house, they always play there. It was a big mansion that almost look like a castle. There are many rooms inside the house, and outside there was a big garden that can be used when there was a gathering, they also have a olympic size swimming pool.
They were running inside the house and playing with each other, when Lynch's mother told them to play outside. But they didn't listen and just continue to run around until Lynch broke something while he was running.
They heard a scream from inside the house, it was too scary for them, then they saw the furious look of Lynch's mother, she was coming at them like she's going to eat them. It was like a nightmare for both of them. Kira couldn't even sleep that day.
Since then whenever he saw Lynch's mother he was scared witless, and whenever she tells them something they always do it immediately and without question.
========================
Kira shiver when that memory resurfaced on his mind. "F*ck you, don't bring your mother in this. For all I know, your mother didn't even invite me there." Kira shouted to his friend shitless.
"It's true, but even if it's not, would you gamble your life in this?" Lynch laugh at his friend.
"F*ck, your a real friend you know." he said sarcastically. "Fine, I'll go but don't expect me to interact much often if there are other people there." he also added.
"Okay okay, no problem. We'll have a good time there, but first we need to make you presentable." Lynch said as he look his friend up and down.
Looking at his friends expression he felt like not going anymore with this upcoming party but thinking of his friends mother he steeled himself to go. "I don't need to be overly presentable there, right." he said.
"You'll need it, I don't know if my mother invited someone else or it's just us." Lynch said as he smiled.
I just hope that there wouldn't be something wrong with this invitation, he thought to himself.

Forged in Fear and Fury - An Apocalyptic LitRPG
In an attempt to prevent Earths ensuing demise, it is ripped from the void by an entity known as The Totality. It is then fused with a Lost Dungeon World to increase its inhabitants chances of survival in a new, system-enhanced universe. Cade Vale barely avoids death in the first second. Will he be able to overcome the rigors of this new world and survive? Will he be able to carve a new life out of the aether for himself and those whom he loves most? ...Will he be able to avoid becoming everything he hates in order to do so? Artwork by Kayla Basciano - Instagram: vulpix1323 Inspired primarily by the systems in The Legend of Randidly Ghosthound, The Genesis System, and The New World as well as by Savage Divinity, Azarinth Healer, and Shovels in Spades in general. I haven't been able to get these worlds out of my head and I've been waiting for something to fill the void left by the hiatus of Genesis, but so far nothing has scratched that itch as much as ProfoundMagician was able to with the world he created. I figure if I'm going to be thinking about this stuff as much as I do I might as well get better at writing while playing with a number of those ideas that I love. I have a number of specifics and events I want to show in the story, but a lot of the fun is coming up with ways to branch those together cohesively. This is an attempt to alleviate my depression by channeling my creativity into a hobby. Hopefully it's as enjoyable to read as it is to write.

Essentia Animus
Second Book of the Soul - Celesi Veil Trilogy When the living essence of three girls are put at risk, giving room for a second essence within themselves, even their hyper developed fantasy world might not be enough to contain their new found ambitions. Another story of another world, these three girls must adapt to their new essence, all while each is left to question if they are truly still even alive. While this story is a sequel of the previous story in the trillogy, it is also fully capable of standing alone in its own light, taking place in a distant corner of a Celese returning readers will be otherwise incapable of recognizing. However, the events of the story are a spoiler for the previous book, in case that matters to anyone. This story takes place over two centuries after the events of Vitae Memorandum, when Celese had developed into an advanced world, improved to a point that it is much like modern-day Earth while still using the gift instead of technology. The Aethyx languages are still present in this book, and even English still exists in the world after the events of the previous book, but are much less of a focus after the same closing events of the previous book. What is instead important is how the ending events of the previous book had resulted in the start of the Instrumentation Era, and exactly how the gift translates in a modern-day sense. While this book is still effectively a fantasy world of its own kind of magic, it isn’t the classical medieval scene that would be typical for such a story. The laws of science still do not exist in Celese, but that didn’t stop it from developing into something that looks similar enough. Earth itself still remains present on the other side of the veil, and its previous exposure continues to shape and advance Celese into the world it has become. This story contains scenes exibiting mania and similar dark themes, as it goes to great length to explore concepts of life and death. While the degree of such themes should not be considered to be as serious compared to matters such as actual horror, the psychological depth is still siginifcant enough to be potentially concerning for people sensitive to matters of this nature, such as any individuals with concerns questioning matters of suicide, mental harm, or a variety of emotional injuries. While none of these subjects actually occur in the story, readers who are currently troubled by such matters may find themselves considering old wounds if they are especially capable of empathy while reading, which could lead to furthered emotional or mental stress. Readers with a high capacity for empathy may find themselves troubled by concerns regarding any potential lack of mental/emotional control as well as considerations regarding the meaning of death. Readers who appreciate subtle dark themes in a story may instead find this to be an interesting twist of the same idea.

The Discarded
The Umbrae Lunae existed before man, beautiful abominations birthed in the nightmares of mad gods. They wait for humanity to misstep, for the angels to look away. For the moment when they can cloak the world in moon shadows once again. But even horrors have children. Even nightmares must feed. One child, unlike the others, finds his way to a school for young abominations. Will he be a sheep cast before the wolves, or a terror that wears the skin of wool to entice the wolf close? The flesh of his body was his only coin, strips cut to pay debts that never ended. Everyone has scars, stories in a life led, lessons learned, and licks taken. Luminous bodies touched by darkness. There are a cursed few that are the opposite, black shadows consumed by scars, twisted minds devoured by diseased hungers, bodies tortured misshapen works of gouged flesh, silver lines of blade thin cuts, ragged tears of teeth and glass. For them, the scars are marks of homecoming, the mangled wasteland the only place they feel at peace. Hell is a place. It's made of concrete, steel and glass. It's the sounds of starving kids crying themselves to sleep, huddling into small balls as creepers come and take their due of innocence and tender meat. It's eating rotten food and carrying ticks in your hair. It’s having no one and nothing while surrounded by everything. It's the life of a street kid. What abomination was birthed in the corrupt womb of man’s cast-off shit? Pretty people don't know the power of ugly. They can't see the strength in a broken soul or the power in a calloused heart. Those secrets are for the discarded alone. Only the broken understand the grace of darkness. The blessed folds that hide scars and tears, the protection of its concealing umbra. E-Begging: Character Sheets, Racial Character Classes, of both side characters, villains, and main characters as well as short stories can be found on my Patreon.
