System," Congratulations! Undying Body has leveled up to level 6. You are now equivalent to Muscle Refining Stage 6."
" I knew it... He wouldn't disappoint me. He got me straight to stage 6, I was only at stage 4 before I lost my cultivation."
" The hell?! Why aren't you fu*king dead yet... How are you Muscle Refining Stage 6? Just a few moments ago you didn't even have a cultivation. Well, it doesn't matter. I'll kill you nevertheless."
" He looks so angry. This is the best day of my life. With him around, it won't be too long before I reach a new realm."
…
System," Congratulations! Undying Body has leveled up. Your body is now equivalent to Muscle Refining Stage 7."
" How? He's still not dead. And now he's at stage 7. He must've been hiding his cultivation the whole time. What if he's at an even higher stage? I need to run before he tries to do anything to me...", thought the stranger.
" Where the hell do you think you're going? Today you're going to die by my hands, and no one is going to be able to save you. You got so mad when I said that you were weak. But I've been letting you hit me for so long and you still couldn't do jack to me. Now that you no longer have a use, you should just die."
" No! Please don't kill me... I beg you-", said the stranger.
System," Congratulations on killing a Muscle Refining Stage 7, you have gained 1,000 xp points. Congratulations, you have reached Muscle Refining Realm Stage 2. From now on you can use skills."
" 1,000 xp huh? How helpful is that even? And wasn't I stage 7? How the hell did I turn in to a stage 3? Yo System, what are my current stats?"

System," Here are your stats:
Cultivation: Muscle Refining Realm
Stage: Muscle Refining Stage 3, 440 xp/1000 xp
Body: Undying Body Level 7
Skills: None"
" Wow. This whole time I didn't even have a cultivation... I destroyed that nub with the power of my body only. But what are skills?"
System," Skills are techniques that you can use to battle others. To learn a skill you must either comprehend one or kill another person to learn their skills."
" Oh. But then why did the person I killed not drop any skills?"
System," The person had yet to learn any skills."
" What the hell? He was bragging about being so strong yet he didn't even any skills... Also, why are you talking to me in such a mechanical way? You used to talk normally back then, what happened?"
System," I do not know how to answer your question."
" Wow, you're pretending for sure. There's no way you would change that much after a single upgrade. Well, whatever. Now that I've become so powerful I don't think there's anyone that can contend with me anymore, so what should I do now?"
System," You are recommended to stop bragging. Not that long ago you were nearly killed by Fang Zhi, only because of my help you were able to escape alive."
" What do you mean? Even if you didn't help me, I would've been able to escape."
System," But then why were you begging me to help you escape? You seemed quite desperate."
" I was just pretending. There's no way I would be scared of him."
" Oh, really?", asked Fang Zhi.
" Wtf?! System help me escape!"
System," No can do. I need to power up for another week to be able to teleport you again."

" Didn't you say that you teleported me far away from him? If so, then how the hell did he find me that quick???"
System," If you had paid attention earlier, you would've known. But since your such a dimwit, I'll repeat myself. Even though the teleportation can teleport you very far away, I can't control where it teleports you. So you can only blame your luck for being teleported so close to him."
" Tf? What's the point in even using teleport, if it's that bad."
System," If I remember correctly when we were at Fang Zhi's lair, you said any place is better than that place."
" Why the hell are you so determined to prove me wrong every time? Can't you go easy on me, just once? But seriously, help me escape please!"
System," Like I said, I need one week to power up. So until then, your gonna have to survive on your own."
" You shouldn't have escaped. You only pissed me off more. I was thinking about giving you a painless death, but since you enraged me even further, I'm going to make you feel like your in hell. Now let's go to back to my lair, shall we.", said Fang Zhi.
" I'm dead this time for sure. He nearly killed me last time, and there's no way the System will be able to power up in time..."

Journey of Infinite Steps
Science Fiction/ Low fantasy Iliad. Oliver just wanted a job that could keep his family fed, and himself sane. Was that so much to ask for? Apparently. As he instead ends up facing monsters and dodging his way to another world instead. Competent as he views himself figuring out how to reopen a portal back home by himself is defiantly above his knowledge base. Of coarse it would be vastly simpler if he could keep 'getting back home' as his primary goal. 'Staying alive' is unfortunately a far more immediate and relevant goal. I will post any content warnings on a Per Chapter basis. Divisive content will be as skip-able as I can reasonably manage Discord Link will be available for those interested in assisting editing/ coauthoring. Especially character writers/those willing to work out the math/ economies and world building even if only as a wall to bounce ideas off of.-----Full Synapsis contains serious spoilers----- Looking to take care of his family, Oliver finds himself flung into a faraway place. Try as he might, his Iliad will not be simple or peaceful as he'd like. Alas the slow and unending war of Chaos and Order has long memories and longer reach. If Oliver is to make his way back home it looks like He'll have to solve the universe one fight and mystery at a time. Especially as the Laws of Physics shift, often on a per world basis. Hopefully there is still a home to come back to.

B's Grand Adventure
It has been two hundred years since the first contact with aliens from the planet Proxima Centauri. It has been about one hundred and ninety-eight since the Centurians and humans accidentally connected their computer systems together. That same year Centurian virus took over almost all of humanity's computers. This was right about the time a huge solar flare knocked out all communication on Earth. Some time between then and now secrets were revealed, like secret societies, where the nukes were being hidden, and, most importantly, that there were Fae, magic beings, living among humanity all this time. The Proxima Centurians eventually came to the now weakened Earth to 'check on' humanity about fifty years ago. Some say they are here to colonize what's left of the city-states and raiders alike. But now we focus on a young man who has earned the ire of a Centurian colony and a powerful half-Fae named Jormungrand. This young man has chosen the name for himself as B. Lovely cover art by the lovelier @azribee.arts on Instagram.

Swords and Roses

Will Rose be able to survive? Maybe, just maybe, she will find out that she is even stronger than she imagined. Or maybe she'll die. That could happen too. Arguably more likely. With that wonderful thought, let the sword fighting begin!
