《Gamemaster's Adventures in another world》Chapter 9: Declaration and Fast Forward
Advertisement
I float above the beastmen's town called New Forden, while tinkering with my screen.
I pulled up the Avatar Creation tab. We often used this to catch scammers and other sorts of people that likes to ruin the gaming experience.
I decided to go with the jester like outfit. Actually, it's a demonic jester outfit. The robe is like that of a church robe, but black with sigils on it. The Fool's hat (it's really a hood blended with the hat) has two points that slicks back with bells attached to the end. As for the mask, it's a smooth white mask with a smiling face drawn on it.
"Hm... This makes me look like a mage..."
I really want to blend in with this whole evil spirit ringleader... Oh, I can just cut the robe at the torso and make it ragged. Now I'm just a floating torso with a head and arms. Tada!
"Looks good."
I am proud of my innovations.
I saved the custom outfit as Demonic Jester and press equip. My naming sense... Really...
My entire uniform was replaced with my new outfit. I set my stats to God Mode, because I don't want to be shut up half way through my announcement.
The day has turned into dusk, so I guess it would be best for me to act now.
[Contain]
The entire town was bubbled up in a purplish barrier.
I've already heard surprised cries of the town guards near the edge of the towns. Alrighty... Let's do this.
[Stealth Mode Off]
"Do I have your attention yet?"
My voice was amplified by the shoutout device. Looks like I got everyone's attention.
"The names Farce, and I have an announcement to make! In four days, I will besiege this town with my armies. You have four days to seek help, and if you manage to win this of impress me... I shall undo all the deaths and destruction that has been wasted upon you. That is all! Good night!"

After finishing my short speech, I teleported back to Aer Castle and remove the barrier from the town.
"Aaah... That was embarrassing..."
...
Back at the beastmen's town, the residents had panic and began to evacuate. The mayor send messengers towards nearby cities and towns asking for assistance.
Sitting at a large desk, a man in his mid fifties with tiger ears slammed his fist on the table.
"Dammit! Why is there such a powerful figure taking notice at this sort of town?!"
New Forden is well known for its mercenary headquarters, but it's only above average compare to other places. A powerful figure who can seal off the entire town will have no problem dealing with their armed forces.
"Mayor, sir. We've just received a message from the Sincrest Assembly."
Another beastmen with cat ears enter the mayor's office. He was dressed in a butler's uniform.
"Oh?! What did they say?!"
"They are sending their champion here, to defend us."
"Lady Camilla? The War Goddess?"
"Yes sir."
The mayor's entire body relaxed as he breathe out a sigh of relief.
"If that's the case... Then we have nothing to worry about."
Camilla, the War Goddess. Sincrest's number one general and her unit is consisted of those above level 400.
"Indeed, many more have answer our call. The Holy Institution has answered along with several large Adventurers Guild. They too will send people here."
"Good! Looks like that Farce bit off more than he can chew. Gahaha!"
...
Hm... I can't believe that it has yet been a full day. First I met Brad and found out that it's been 30 years here. Met Richard, then encounter those Explorers, now I'm here. All in one fourth of a day.
"I shouldn't had set it four days. I'll be dead from boredom."

"..."
Aer stood there silently next to me. He's giving my the impression of a butler awaiting their master's order.
"Ugh, if only I can... Wait. I can!"
I can fast forward time here! Maybe I can rewind time back to my time period? Do you remember when I said that we don't have that passing time feature? Well, what I meant say was that we don't have a feature where NPCs age from time.
I pulled out my screen.
"My lord... What are you doing...?"
"Time travelling. Fingers crossed."
"...? Is that possible?"
I hit the Year tab... Blank...
I really can't go back... The sliders only allows a few hours back. Back to where I first woke up in this new world.
I sighed.
"Well, fingers crossing doesn't help..."
"Such gestures won't commit, my lord..."
"Yeah yeah. But I can fast forward four days later."
Okay, so you may be wondering why we can control time. Well you see, sometimes glitches happen at a certain part of the day. Like around the afternoon, a random tree decided to stretch itself. We don't always catch that, but that can be detected.
So we either reverse time for the entire server, or make a separate space around the tree and alter time there. A quick note is that NPCs are affected by the time thing. This is a virtual world, so everything is supposed to be realistic to a certain degree.
Let's say you can get a quest at a NPC guard that randomly patrols the area. You can't find him at night or during certain hours since he'll either be asleep (no quest given) or he'll be having lunch at the dining hall. I think you'll get the picture.
Anyway, the only time we actually time change the entire server is during daylight savings.
I'm not going to wait around for 4 days. So...
I inputted roughly four days into the Time/Date Control Screen.
"I wonder how time travel feels for NPCs... Aer?"
"... We spirits perceive time differently... We can only roughly grasp time base on our surroundings..."
"In that case, here we go."
I pressed Yes.
I took a glance at my surroundings. I see spirits zooming here and there. It's like one of those time lapse shots of people walking.
"There we go. Aer?"
"I am here..."
"Were you there the whole time?"
"Yes..."
"Isn't that... Boring?"
"I'm a spirit, my lord... Things are dull when you are dead..."
"I guess that's a fair point. Anyway, gather every single evil spirit. We're heading towards New Forden!"

New Game (Reborn as a Reluctant Demon Lord, Book 1)
Portal Fantasy. Isekai. A daydream of nerds everywhere, leaving behind their boring world and living in a fantasy one that is full of adventure. A daydream that became a reality for me and 1000 other Comic-Con attendees. Except for me, it was more of a nightmare. Wanting nothing more than to find a way home, and also saddled with being the world's new [Demon Lord], I found myself trapped in a gamelike world and also somehow a part of the [Hero's] party. So join me as I tell the tale of my struggles. A tale of levels and skills. A tale of cagey game admins and bugs. And a tale of our party's grand quest to defeat... Well... Me. ---- What to expect from this book? 1. A main character who is not overpowered (and instead has to go from near-useless to strong. Not just weak to strong). If you are looking for an OP [Demon Lord] who laughs at his weakling enemies... This isn't for you. 2. A meandering pace as the characters aren't told how a lot of the world works and have to figure it out themselves. (And because there are a lot of characters. Whose idea was it to have a party of 9? I blame Jake) 3. A tragedy. A lot of things are not going to go well for the protagonist. (Not that everything is tragedy all the time. There is humor, laughter, friendship, and even a mascot monster character who got way more popular than I expected. But this is not a story that will leave you uplifted and inspired after every time you read it). ---- Release Schedule and publishing information: Book 1 is complete! I will include a link to book 2 once it has been started. Feel free to give feedback, positive or negative. ---- Other notes Book 1? Yes, this says Book 1. There are probably going to be 3 books. No, the plot as you can guess is not going to be tortured to drag out all the way to book 3. That would be ridiculous. If you can guess the plot of books 2 or 3 at any point before the last chapter of book 1, please use your clairvoyant powers for something more productive. TitusGM? This story is intentionally told under the username TitusGM because the idea is that he was the one actually writing everything down what happened after it all is over. I initially planned to answer everything in character on this site, but that just really didn't work out.

Primal Adaptation
The story of a little soul that ends up tangled in the games and bets of entities that utilize beasts of any primordial planet as a game avatar to make the Perfect Primal. This tale is not only its story because it will also share its destiny with the entity that will help it in its journey, and together they will rise from their particular situations one way or another. Primal Adaptation is a history with some RPG elements in it, but the MC can't look at a status screen or skill page because it's a beast through and through. I have implemented an evolution system for all the creatures of this story, where they grow or mutate depending on what they consume. In this tale, you won't find a Deus ex machina to give the protagonist power-ups. Everything must be learned and comprehended before its use unless it's something it gets immediately, or the abilities get understood by instinct. In essence, it is survival and gambit for opportunities, be it from one MC or the other.

Home of Laplace
I opened my eyes to an unfamiliar mountain peak standing tall above me like seeing a skyscraper from the street. Soon the chilling burn of the snow that covered me began to invade my senses and I flung my torso upward, sitting up straight. I grabbed my head in confusion as my eyes surveyed the area around me: The corner of a mountain wall stood menacingly in front of me accompanied by thin, dangerous looking paths on either side. The likes of which only adrenaline-seeking psychopaths would use. I turned my head backwards and felt my heart drop as what looked like an infinitely long freefall met my gaze. I was sitting on the ledge of a snow-covered mountain. "CRKKKK" A heart-shaking croaking sounded from above me further up the mountain and I jolted backwards at the impossibly loud sound. 'Shit, wasn't there nothing behind me?' The sound of cracking stone accompanied the heart dropping sensation of descension. As I plunged down backwards, the last thing I saw was the deep-set brown eyes of that blue-skinned monstrosity further up the mountain. ----------------------------------------------------- Levi Laplace is a former genius biochemistry student that died a simple and laughable death on earth. Having studied profusely and written many papers published by large firms he was well-respected and accomplished in his field. But that did not prevent him from having his own problems in his personal life. Having chased behind the back of science for so long he had neglected his social life, ending up lonely and without a partner in his early twenties coming out of his studies. He decided that the best way for him to rekindle his social prowess was to retire to teaching high school science in a small town. He never ended up falling in love as he dreamed but he did find surprising contentment from dealing with the troubled raccoons he taught on a daily basis. Finding himself summoned to a strange world by unknown forces he is confronted with harsh issues and the struggles of its people. Meeting many more problem children, he is moved by his sense of duty to help them find their path in this journey through life. As well as find his own in this dangerous new world. ________________________________________________________________________________________________ Chapter updates DAILY AT 12:00 PM EST (...Is the goal, sometimes a bit later in the day or the next day at 12:00 instead :P ) Definitely at least once every two days though!

Ghost Girl, Ghost Girl. She Gonna Take Your Soul!
Ghost Girl had no name or she didn’t want to use it, for she… is dead. Ghosts like her appeared due to lingering attachments to the physical world or unfinished business. Her unfinished business were her horrible parents! She will haunt them. Or kill them! Thus, the haunting (killing) adventures of Ghost Girl. Image drawn by Lizalot. I thought this image was a great fit as a cover.
