《Fighting Back The Tide》Clearing Things Up
Advertisement
Ok so I am incredibly ticked off right about now so I am going to post this to clear things up. Someone and yes I mean you Cruxio and others has been making snarky comments about how this is a rip off and how things aren't explained blah blah.
Firstly this is not a rip off of anyone and I know it starts similar to Change: New World but it diverges relatively quickly. I wrote this story well over a year ago on my PC which I then caught a virus which caused my PC to have a melt down. I ended up without a job so I had to put everything I could save aside for a year to buy a new one which naturally put my story writing back quite a bit.
Secondly I have had to butcher my story as there are things that happened in Change: New world that I wanted to incorporate into my story like dissecting enemies and capturing them alive to experiment on to find weaknesses but had to drop because everyone would say I was copying even though it makes sense to experiment and learn new things about things you have no knowledge of in order to increase the chance of survival. The story is relatively fast paced so I can get through the training dungeon which they are in and surpass where SlimeLv1 is. Once that is done then what I write from then on will not be considered copying and I can at my leisure go back and rewrite and add more detail.
Thirdly it has been written that I haven't explained about the stats and skills etc but if people had read what I have written then you will see that the MC does explain the stats and all of the skills have descriptions that go with them so not sure where that comes from. Also I haven't forgot about any skills that I have given the Mc or others even if they haven't been implemented yet that is because I haven't wanted to use them yet.

Fourthly several people have asked me how can my character be able to kill monsters at much higher level then him and it is relatively simple. Level is what gives you stats and boosts you overall but if someone swings a sword and cuts your head open then you are going to die. Level is a guide and to show an increase in power my real world physics still apply they have just added magic into the equation and altered a few things.
Fifthly People say that my battles are too fast and that is true. I hate reading novels where it takes them five paragraphs to explain one move and drag the battle on. Especially when combat is generally brutal and quick and over in a few moves.
Sixthly and last but not least grammar. I have repeatedly stated that this is my first time writing and sharing a book with people and am looking for constructive input. I generally use the automatic error checking that comes up when I write something and I know that sometimes I use American and sometimes I use English spellings. It is also true I need to use better punctuation and commas and the like. This isn't a masterpiece like Shakespeare but an amateur writer trying to share a story with others and hoping they will also enjoy it like I do. I am doing this to gain experience and once I have done so I will probably at some point rewrite everything so it reads better and is much more detailed.
As I have said if you don't like it then I am sorry for that but nobody is perfect and nothing can please everyone. If my story isn't to anyone's taste then don't read it instead of writing derogatory comments on all the chapters. If you do like the story then please rate it and even if you don't then please rate it fairly unlike some have. My story isn't a masterpiece and it is a work in progress but to rate it as half a star is insulting and not a very amusing joke when I compare it to others on this site. I am always looking for new ideas and ways to improve both my writing and the story. If you have anything that might help then great, let me hear them and I am willing to listen to constructive criticism if however you just want to insult people then take a hike as I don't have the time to waste on those types of people.

I am going to do a few more chapters and at least resolve the bully part and possibly press on and finish the training dungeon itself. Once that is done I will see how things are and how I feel about continuing. I have read some nice comments and a lot of people seem to like what I have written and I am thankful for that but it is the trolls and parasites that bring me down.

Searcher
I was just like everyone else. At least, I thought so. Everyone grew up in a mansion with servants, trained to be a debutante, had a traveling archeologist for a father, and gave it all up to do whatever the hell they wanted. Right? Well that’s what I did. I was happy. As happy as a single twenty four year old girl can be living in an apartment selling shit online to pay the bills. Not actual shit, that's gross. No, I bought stuff from garage sales, thrift stores, and junk shops, and resold it in my online store. I was pretty good at finding stuff to peddle to my customers. I made rent every month and didn’t have to strip. I’m a bit too chunky to swing around a pole anyway. Life was great! Until two sexy men broke into my apartment and woke me up from the most erotic dream my sexually depraved mind could come up with. One was between my legs, the other was... Oh well, it was a dream and I didn’t even get to finish it. Those bastards! Now I’m supposed to believe my dead father wasn’t an archeologist, but some kind of paranormal agent working for a secret organization called The Guard. My ability to find items for my customers is just a perk inherited from him. And I’m supposed to use my inherited powers to save the world. All while these hunks of man flesh guard me from other paranormals out to get whatever the hell they think I have. A certain body part is dripping with excitement, literally. But my mind is saying “Hell No!”

Knight and Deserter
The year is 1039 of Autorm, and nothing has changed. The Knight Seekers still patrol the old highways, death is common in life, and justice is but an afterthought. Power is the unspoken truth, wealth is a means to an end. Anything else becomes irrelevant. The novel takes place in the fictional Kingdom of Spartha. The story revolves mainly around the adventure of two characters. Leondre vae Marras, the fourth son of a Marquis. A prodigy in the Royal Military Academy, and aspiring Knight-errant. Albeit he's still a teenager, naive, and also inexperienced with the outside world. He is also one of the few knights to take the code of Chivalry seriously. Then there's Cendric Forrester, the bastard of a decorated Knight. Sold off in servitude to the Order of the Knights Seeker, to unwillingly pay his mothers debt. He's tired of being the Orders pet hound. Ruthless to those standing in his way, and disillusioned with Chivalry and the world around him. Cendric is a survivor, and firmly believes one should have their own self interests in mind. Two opposites of a coin, the only thing they have in common besides their ire for each other is blood. They're cousins surprisingly, not that it really matters.
