《The Bartender at the End of the Universe》Ch 142: What Horrors has Daedelus Wrought?

Sid slumped against the wall. His skeletal hand squeezed a piece of cloth that was wrapped around his bicep as his arm hung limp. It looked to be in pretty rough shape, like it had been crushed under a Boulder.
For a brief moment, he seemed to rest against the stainless steel wall.
Sid was in a narrow hallway. There wasn't even enough room for Sid to stretch his arms out fully. There was no ceiling, but an endless black that stretched out from where the steel walls ended.
Ting!
The noise was reminiscent of a hammer striking an anvil. Immediately, Sid pressed forward. He kept his hand gripped firmly on his limp arm as he jogged forward.
Ting!
The sound had gotten closer. Sid increased his speed for a moment, but then seemed to almost stumble. After his feet nearly tripped, he slowed back down to his jog.
Sid looked back. There was nothing behind him. At least, nothing that he could see. Yet, it was clear that with every moment something was getting closer.
Ting!
Ting!
Closer and closer. Every moment the sound grew louder and more ominous.
Sid came to a diverging path. Two left, and one forward. He didn't hesitate as he took the second path to the left.
This was a bad decision, as he ran into a dead end after just a few moments. He turned around and quickly made his way back.
As he emerged, he saw what was chasing him. The exact length of the hallway was what was essentially a giant metal mouth. Instead of teeth it had solid chunks of metal that tinged as they gnashed down towards each other.
Sid paid it no mind and took the other left path.

Legends of Balarel - A Leisurely LitRPG
Glenn Redwood has longed to become an Adventurer since he was a young boy, and has focused every waking moment on that goal since turning 14. Answering the challenge of the Gods of Balarel, he has fought Monsters, Leveled, and grown stronger. Yet the day before his 16th birthday, the day he will earn his dream or lose it forever ... the Gods have made a wager. And no mere mortal wishes to draw the attention of the Gods. ***** This is my crack at writing a leisurely LitRPG. My focus is more on telling interesting stories set in a world where people live under a MMORPG-like ruleset enforced by the Gods, and less on writing another story where the MC gets massive stat boosts every chapter before heading off to wreck the world. There will be plenty of blue tables (it’s LitRPG!) but my Adventurers are just starting out. This fic is about the journey, not the destination, so expect everyone to Level ... leisurely. Updates: M-T-W-Th. I’ll post 3000-4000 words a day, or 12000-15000 words a week. If this posting pace ends up being too much for me, I reserve the right to slow posts down a bit. Inspirations: Blessed Time (Royal Road) Is It Wrong To Try To Pick Up Girls In a Dungeon? (Anime) Trails in the Sky (JRPG Series) MC: My MC is a genuinely good person who’s both a talented warrior and tactically savvy. He prefers to solve problems without violence but will resort to force if necessary to protect his friends or innocent people. I’m tired of stories starring anti-hero MCs facing endless doom and gloom, so I wanted to write a nice guy with an adventurous spirit who helps people in a thriving fantasy world. That’s all.

I was Summoned as a Hero, but I Became the Demon Lord Instead
"Ah, how I wish I could be summoned to another world." I’d always thought of such a naive wish of escapism would never be granted. However, shit happened and I was somehow summoned. However, in some strange twist of fate, I was no longer needed and disposed of, but that’s okay because I didn’t want to be a summoned hero to begin with. My new beginning may have been abruptly cut short, but even so, that is fine. There is a path I’m much more interested in. Mwuhahaha! Cough cough cough. Though, my sinister laugh may still need some practice. I was Summoned as a Hero , but I Became the Demon Lord Instead Volume 1 Word Count: 108K Including Volume Exclusive Content Available on Amazon Edit: If you don’t get the timeline that’s because the rate at which time flows in different worlds are not equal. In addition, timelines do not neccesarily run parallel to each other, they may cascade such that when summoned to another world you may get summoned from a different reference frame in the timeline of another world’s with respect to your own. Scientific constants can change from one plane to the next. The natural laws that govern each world is not necessarily the same across them all. Some may display similarities, while others may be the complete opposite where rather than aging forwards you actually age in reverse. Newborns could be born elderly and withered, but when they are born into the world, their body regresses towards death in reverse.
