[System Status: Operative]
[External Connection Communication System: Error]
[Error Type: Unknown]
“Could we skip this?” It asked to no one. “to something that matters.”
[Neuronal Nexus Status: Failed]
[Neuronal Nexus ERROR: Active]
“This should mean that I am actually human, right?” It asked to itself. “Neurons are living species shit. Therefore I exist. Who said it? I think I got it wrong. Socrates? Plato? I cannot remember and this makes me hungry… ehmm, angry, angry not hungry.”
[Neuronal Symbiosis Check: Success]
“I should be at least alive, this entry confirms it.” It asked because it was its only action available.
[Activating World Simulation 4D Time-Estructural Axis: ERROR]
[Activating World Simulation Archano-Crystal Index: Available]
[Connecting Archano-Crystal Index World Simulation... ERROR]
“What was that simulation thing?” It asked once again, revising the log. “4D Time-Estructural Axis? Archano-Crystal Index? What does this mean? The first sounds like some sci-fi stuff and the second fantasy, but actually not. It is not Arcano, so no magical bullshittery, it says Archano-Crystal, so it must be a name, isn’t it?
[User Count: 1]
“This is when I was introduced forcefully into… this” Said It, looking around it. “So my name is actually It or you are toying with me like The Voice? Not the TV show, the spanish voice. “It clarified. And It thought about stopping questions once again. “I did not, or did I?”

[A hero's welcome I see]

[WOLRSD SYMULATION HAS BEGUN]
[As expected...]
“Okay this is the really weird part. Previously the log resembled a somewhat real log. But then this commentary appeared ‘A hero’s welcome I see’ and ‘As expected’. I think I skip it but there was also a ‘Ah yes, this was expected’ addition.” It remembered, searching for clues. It felt a bit betray, this terminal didn’t help It search the exit, only a log of what happened. Someone could say that this metadiegesis wasn’t the work for a intern narrator, but It still was angry, and not hungry. “Yeah, thank you for reminding me my errors… NOW PERISH.

Wait no, a voice said to It. DON’T DO IT.
[Narrator Mode Off]
“I don’t know why I activated in the first place.” I monologued myself. “Ah yes, now I remember. To stop this fucking mologue! I really hate this crappy situation, this crappy world and my crappy life. Even though I don’t fucking remember nothing!”
How the narrator mentioned, maybe I need some linguistic tools to reorganize what happened. So… Flashback! I shall summon you!
As I heard the voice I just “FUUUUUCK!” cried. This is going to be a long day.
I stand up. Somehow, I was now a bodiless being. Yay! Now I am no longer human. Did I say that I don’t know what is happening? Yes, I did. And this paragraph now contains two Jojo references. What’s a Jojo reference? I don’t know. I sighed, I may have to get used to this.
Firstly, I think I just time travelled. Secondly, I am in the aether, or at least a very white dimension. ‘Cause I ain’t rememberin’ anyting this ain’t heaven. Well let’s discard fact one. I does not make sense, this might be a prerecorded message every time I… change level? Not so wild of a theory. Or at least wilder than time travelling. Well… the simulation could have rewinded, but no me, so it actually would time travel.
The instant I stop thinking and then existing I saw it. A terminal. A terminal? How does it looks? The way it looks? How does it taste? I don’t know. It is tasty? Maybe? Fucking brain. Think straight for once.
A blue screen was levitating in the middle of… well… white. I approached the screen. No sudden moves, nothing. I did not want to chase a two dimensional object being myself a incorporeal being inside a hollow realm.

[Would you like to activate Narrator Mode?]
A voice, not a spanish human one, but an artificial anthropomorphic english voice spoke.
“OH HELL YES! GIVE IT TO ME BABY”
[Narrator Mode On]
It cried needlessly in the void, noticing its stupidity since nobody would listen to him. A stupid being with stupid reasons inside a realm of nothing but its stupidity.
“Oh…” It sighed. “I am SO regretting this.”

The Lightning Brigade
Your name is your burden. One you can never escape. A destiny akin to a storm, ensnaring the unwary and crushing the weak. A power to claim, but at a cost too terrible to name. Power to be a hero. To be a protector. A savior. A monster. Anything you choose to be. To stand apart and be known. To do what you believe is right, no matter the scorn. All you must do is weather the storm. This is the tale of those who fight monsters. Those who become monsters. Who always were. The Lightning Brigade

Sect Core
A peak cultivator is betrayed by his sect for being of common birth. The sect decides to not only kill him but transform him into a core, so they can use him for cultivation. But to get full control of all the sects formations, all of his energy has to be banned from the galaxy. In this manner, the main character is thrown into the rift in the middle of the galaxy. This rift transports him into another galaxy, where his journey to become the core of the most prominent sect begins. --- This is my first story, and the release schedule will be spotty in the beginning because I still have to do a lot of world building and thinking where the story should go. But I decided to put it out into the world to get some feedback so I can see what people think about it and maybe even get some inspiration. --- The cover image is not my own. I copied it from the internet. I thought it was cool and it suited the story. All rights reserved for the owner of the image.

Malheur aux vaincus - Short stories
I am a reader, not a writer. But in the spirit of contributing to the trove of texts present here, I hope to share some short stories that I wrote: two in French in a Roman Fantasy setting ; and the rest in English: one inspired by manichean webnovels, another one... difficult to classify as a fiction, a little flight of fancy about the 'What if?' game, and last even two poems.

The End
There are five days left. The End is a miracle 10,000 years in the making that will free all from the confines of the world. The gods will soon be born. There is nothing that can be done about this. Not a webnovel, but a screenplay, submitted as my dissertation for my screenwriting degree. Sort of experimental. I have learned that I dislike writing screenplays, but all the same, I thought I'd post it anyway so it's at least worth something that way.
