“Hey Lugh what took you so long?”
“I just needed to get used to the amulet.”
“I heard that you dominated the competition. How did you write all of those in such a short period of time?”
“I didn’t really write any of those. I just plagiarized from a friend of mine.”
Joseph laughed and said “If the other nobles found out they would be green from regret.”
“Anyways how did you do in the noble tournament?”
“Good, not the best but still strong enough to beat my brothers.”
“When is the next tournament?”
“Its an annual event.”
“Oh, that’s good.”
“Are you actually going to join it next year?”
“Of course.”
“That’s good because if you join I can enter the tag team tournament.”
“Do you have any allies/friends besides for me?”
“I wouldn’t be the main successor if I didn’t. But my main support is from the commoners.”
“No noble support?”
“Besides for you I only am allies with the Deepheart family.”
“Deepheart family? I’ve made sure to learn all of the houses and political powers in the capital but I’ve never heard of the Deepheart family”
“The Deepheart family is the royal family of the Leviathans.”
“Why did you choose support of the Divine Beast families instead of human families?”
“Because the Divine Beast families power exceeds our nation's power and Divine Beast rulers don’t have power changes very often unlike human powers”
“Even if the Divine Beast families powers exceeds the human nobles power the Divine Beast families are far away.”
“Even if they are far away their future successors aren’t.”
“Who?”
“From the Kitsune side you and your sister are both from the True Family and from the Leviathan side there is a kid named Sarah who is the direct descendent of the current Leviathan king.”

“The True Family?”
“You really don’t know anything about your own family?”
“If I knew would I be asking.”
“I wouldn’t be the one to ask but basically if you are in the True Family you have a top tier bloodline.”
“Okay. Do you know why Kitsune abandon their kids at 1 or 2?”
“All I know is that it is a recent tradition.”
“Anyways I want to meet Sarah where is she?”
“Sarah is currently helping her family in the Royal Reef.”
“Royal Reef?”
“The Royal Reef is in the depths of the ocean.”
“I just realized how much I don’t know about this continent.”
He laughed and said “Of course, it takes years to learn about every part of this continent. Anyways do you want me to give you a quick geographical lesson about this continent? ”
“Yes please.”
He told be about the general locations of the continent. The main points are that we are the only country on this continent, we are surrounded by a giant ocean, have lost contact with other continents and the Royal Reef is in the depths of the eastern sea. It is also where the Leviathans live. After the mini geography lesson I asked him “I’m assuming that you wanted to talk about something more important.”
“Yeah, I wanted to ask you if you know about your family's condition?”
“What happened to my family?”
“Well it’s not just your family but your entire race.”
“Continue.”
“The Phoenix clan declared war on the Kitsune.”
I shocked. I couldn’t even think clearly for a couple of minutes. Thankfully when I could think I was somewhat calm. I activated my amulet.
“Give me specifics please.”
“You reacted better than I thought you would and currently it isn't a true war but the Phoenix clan revoked their peace treaty. Other than that I don’t really know much.”

“Do we have any allies?”
“Yeah, for beast allies you have all of the nature alliance and for the mortal allies you have the Elves and Dryads.
“What allies do the Phoenix clan have?”
“Fire Giants and Dwarves.”
“Why would the Dwarves want to support the Phoenix clan?”
“Because the Phoenix clan is offering them Eternal Flames.”
“Eternal Flames?”
“Once a Phoenix dies they turn into an egg and live anew but when they die they leave a little bit of flames that never die. The Eternal Flames also auto tune their temperature for forging and before you ask Dwarves value forging over their lives.”
“I at least know that much about Dwarves and have the Phoenix clan burned down any forests yet?”
“Actually about that the Phoenix clan won’t because the Luna clan said they would join the war if they do.”
“Luna clan?”
“You truly know nothing. The Luna clan is a combination of wolves and other canines.”
“If you inherit the throne will you help my clan?”
“Of course but I need the throne first.”
“When will you inherit it?”
“In 5 years.”
“Don’t you just have to conquer the throne since you're of age?”
Joseph had black lines forming on his forehead and said “I’m 16 right now.”
“WHAT!”
“I’m only 16.”
“You look like you’re 36.”
“To think that I was going to give you housing at the palace.”
“I have no idea what you are talking about you look like a young 16 year old.”
“I can’t hear you.”

The Laptop Hero (Portal/Isekai LitRPG)
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] - April 2022 Silas got summoned to another world—by a group of kids attending magic school who seemed rather unhappy with the results of their ritual. After a brief glimpse of his summoners Silas woke in the town dump. Unable to speak the local language, a misunderstanding escalated and before long Silas wound up in a jail cell, the locals having confiscated all his worldly possessions aside from his laptop, which had formed some strange bond with him. Now he can summon his laptop at will, and he can view his Status, level up, and gain powerful skills and magic as if he were some character in a video game, which is great and everything, but all Silas really wants to do is sit in a dark room and play games on his laptop. Only, life isn't a game, and Silas needs to get his act together because everyone else is playing for keeps. Or does he? Maybe for Silas life is just one big game now, with everyone else stuck playing by his rules. Assorted Disclaimers, in no particular order: I am only posting this on RoyalRoad.com, so if you find my story elsewhere it was not posted by me. Please do let me know! While I do consider this a progression fantasy, and have tagged it as such, Silas's Status improvements will not necessarily proceed in a linear fashion. His RPG stats will have ups and downs, exploits and nerfs, periods of growth and stagnation. Such is the life of a gamer, to be held under the thumb of the all powerful devs, or in this case a certain goddess devoted to the idea of Balance. SIlas himself should learn and grow, improving and progressing in areas where he struggles, or rather, to show such is my goal. The story is told from multiple points of view. While other PoVs will come and go, Silas shall remain the only lead character. The world Silas finds himself on is not a nice place. Expect him to encounter gore and traumatizing content and bad people who do bad things for selfish (or possibly noble) reasons from time to time. Some characters will use profanity, however due to cultural differences the curse words used will differ from those used in our corner of reality, so I'm not including the profanity content warning. Silas himself isn't one for foul language. No explicit sexual content here. This novel is intended for mature readers, however, and will include mature topics, including, but not limited to, sex, violence, death, and taxes. No harem. Might be an eventual romantic interest, possibly even some competitive jealousy, yet as his story begins Silas is too overwhelmed with other concerns to consider long term plans. Musophobics might want to steer clear of this story. Same goes for turophobics. You have been warned. Keep in mind, however, if my other disclaimers didn't make this clear, I only have the faintest of outlines at the moment. This story will take me where it will. My goal with this story is to write it to the end, something of a long-term writing exercise, with the hope others might take an interest in my work and encourage me to keep at it. I've started a number of works before, even finished a few, but this is the first time I've shared any work in a public forum. My temporary cover was made by me, in GIMP using public domain images. If you can do better I'll happily accept your submission and give credit for your work here!
