《Real Life Can Be Interesting Too》A Real Life Regular Going Home After Work

"Late night again?"
"Yeah, got some stuff due today." I reply.
"Beth on your back again?"
"You know it." I reply with a light chuckle.
The night janitor and I are on friendly terms. We have this conversation every time I stay late frantically trying to meet the unreasonable deadlines from the higher-up that bullies me. This conversation always calms me down and somehow I manage to finish my work.
I send off the email saying I'm done and for the moment I am at peace knowing that Beth's wrath has been successfully delayed.
It's already dark when I leave the office and I'm feeling too lazy to cook so I grab a couple slices of pizza on the way home. As I sit on the train home eating a slice of pepperoni pizza, I start to think.
What would intimidation resistance be in real life?
In a game you would get that skill by spending some points and then you would level that skill to where you need it to go. So it looks like the pattern here would be obtaining an understanding of such skill and then grinding for experience.
By the time I get home it's midnight. Luckily, tomorrow is a Saturday so I can sleep in. But, that's not what I'm going to do. I'm going to wake up early and try to figure out what intimidation really is, how I can resist it, and I'll grind that skill as much as I can.

Azarinth Healer
A new world with nearly unlimited possibilities. A status, classes, magic and monsters. Sounds good? Well, for Ilea it didn't come quite as expected as for some other protagonists, nor was there a king or god to welcome her. The grand quest? Well, she might figure that out someday but for now, a new world with new food is prize enough. Her fists at the ready, she's prepared to punch and get punched, however long it takes and however many limbs she might have to regrow. A story I've started writing now quite a while ago. Transported to another world, somewhat standard fantasy setting with my beginner attempts to make it dark but funny. There are Litrpg elements here but I do hope it's not too heavy and annoying. The fights should be interesting and aren't just numbers vs numbers. Contrary to the title the protagonist will be quite an offensive fighter. Ilea Spears is your average sarcastic kick-boxing fast food worker and soon to be student. She will be transported to another world rather conventionally and will be confronted with survival in the wild. Give it a shot and let me know what you think. My experience is incredibly lacking. If you find yourself hating it early on, do convey your anger in a detailed comment or review :) I want to get better but without any feedback it's simply quite difficult. Quick heads up: Around chapter 120 there are a bunch of longer PoV changes that I discontinued again shortly after. The Arc around chapters 150-200 is darker than the rest and the themes shift quite a bit. Just know that it goes back to what you've come to know after that section. Thank you for reading. Quick update June 2019: Many complaints regarding the formatting, specifically spacing in conversations and of course the usage of the present tense in the first 36 chapters have been addressed. I'm of course learning by the day but compared to how it was before it should be an improvement at least. Chapters usually around 3k words Cover art by Kevin Catalan

The Crimson Castle
This is a LitRPG that follows Claire Woodward, A somewhat nerdy high school senior, who finds herself trapped in a video game, The Crimson Castle, she had just booted up for the first time. The Low Magic Fantasy World of The Crimson Castle is unlike any other. The world consists of only two things, the walled city of Dal and the wilderness that surrounds it. Each night, the wilderness outside of the city disappears and for five minutes the world trembles. Once the five minutes are up, the wilderness reappears, but it is always different from any previous' day wilderness. This means each day the city of Dal is surrounded by something new and exciting. Sometimes, the city of Dal finds itself on top of a snowy mountain, the next day in a foggy swamp, the next day after that on a tropical island, and so on. Inhabitants of Dal that go out into the wilderness are called adventurers. The further adventurers get from city of Dal, the rarer the loot they will find, but also the more treacherous their travels will become. Do not worry though, it is impossible to die in the wilderness. If your health reaches zero you will transported back to the city of Dal alive and well. Will Claire be able to figure out why she was transported into this world, and better yet, will she be able to escape it?
