《Cheaters Always Win》Emergency News! + Q/A
Advertisement
Due to current situation, I will be delaying the chapter release for this week to Friday!
I'm making sure these next few chapters are lined up properly and directed with maximal effort! Look forward to it, my lovely readers!
Thanks for your patience, and all the support so far. Whether it's criticisms or enjoying the ride, you guys are all awesome! I'm learning how to draw so I can get some sketches up whenever possible in my free time!
If you guys have any questions so far about the story or anything in general, I can answer them in the comments here. I'll do my best to answer.
From Aakuri
Hey! Thank you for the wonderful story you've got going here, i hope to see more of it and i wish you all the best! I do have a question in mind (uhh so many actually but I'll stick to 2 haha),
1.will we see more of alda in the future, even if she's not going to be a character that travels with them, atleast once or twice before the end of this arc? NGL a female character among boys and men was a relief to read about.
2. I guess this might be more of a spoiler question so you don't have to answer it if you don't want to but will our Chester and Damien have another travel companion in the future? Temporary or permanent? I don't need definitive answers xD a 'maybe, probably or who knows' would do as well haha.
A:
1. Alda's definitely someone I haven't shown a lot of love for so far. But her time to shine is coming soon. I don't have any current plans on making her a a travel companion, because her character is the type to stay in one place, given her position as the leader of the dwarven military force.

2. Chester and Damien will definitely have more travel companions as the series goes along. But for this book, I've made a point to make it mostly the two of them so far. I wanted to build their dynamic together and have it established before I went around adding more. As of now, I have one permanent companion and one temporary in mind, but they're identities will be kept secret for now ;)
From Spook918
Liking the story so far, and I'm wondering will we see Chester cheating the system again? or attempting to at least?
A:
Chester cheating the system is something I like to use sparingly, mostly because giving him something as fraudulent as doubled stat points or equivalent would have him curb-stomping the universe in about twenty chapters. Attempting to exploit the system? Oh, he's definitely sure to eventually. But whether he succeeds or not, that's left for the future ;)

I'm Always Talking to Myself
My name is Zach. I’m a typical bland featureless protagonist type. The kind of guy who has purposefully few defining characteristics so that people can project whatever they want on me. Like Luke from Star Wars or what’s her name from Twilight. Most main characters are like me. Kind of flavorless blank slates because we all secretly doubt that we’re Harrison Ford, but pretty much anyone could be Mitt Romney. Yep. Yes indeed, I do spend basically my entire life running an internal dialog to no one. Usually I’m imagining that there are people listening. Like maybe philosophers from Ancient Greece, or researchers from another planet who act suspiciously like the characters from that Instagram comic with the aliens. Stupid Instagram comedians stealing my internal monologue and turning into a wildly successful enterprise which I would imagine has a vibrant merch dropshipping arm and hundreds of thousands of daily dopamine hits for loyal followers. I basically spend all of my time explaining random things to imaginary people (and aliens, and animals, and household items which have inexplicably gained sentience and frankly have some concerns about this whole existence thing). Honestly, it’s both highly entertaining to me, in that it makes me think about why we humans do all of the bizarre things that we do, but also horrifically exhausting and kind of makes you feel like you’re either, worst cast, losing your grip on reality, or best case, becoming Abed from Community. Anyway, I’m sure that I have some distinguishing characteristics, but, in the interest of hypnotic suggestion I’m choosing to omit them until I’m pretty sure that you have subconsciously come to identify with me, or until I feel like it. (By the way, in case I forgot to mention it, a higher power called Aww Thor or something told me to say that this is a slice-of-life comedy adventure and that it's set in a fantasy world with isekai and LitRPG elements.)

Activation
Will was a normal guy in his mid twenties, living in small town America. He was relatively aimless. Then he got struck by lightning. Waking up reminded him why falling asleep in strange places had stopped being a pleasant adventure for the next day, years before. Then, the crazy started. Life would never be the same, but he wasn't aimless anymore. Plus, you know, super powers are cool. Warning: There will be swearing and casual conversation about subjects that might have some people clutching their pearls. There will be dirty jokes. There will not be graphic depictions of sexual activity, or harem shenanigans, as I'm making my mother read this. That would be very uncomfortable.
