《Sand MMORPG》3. School
Advertisement
After a few hours of playing his favorite game and grinding, Rin needed a long needed break. He had school tomorrow, he couldn't play all day!
"Yes police, that's the house. I was driving and this.. monster.. he J-walked!" A man shaking in fear said
"Understood, we'll take care of it. Rest assured that this criminal mastermind won't roam free!" Is what the cop said but what he thought internally was this
'This smart criminal is too elusive! I don't have enough evidence to bring him in.. How long is he going to hide in this dilapidated building?!'
The cop stroked his chin as he thought. Just as he was about to knock the door swung open, hitting him in the face.
"I'M GONNA BE LATE FOR SCHOOL!" Rin said as he ran out of his house, with fear in his eyes.
Rin knew that his teachers were ruthless and that if he was late he'd have to pay the price. Maybe they'd even take one of his jars of sand! That can't happen!
".. Assaulting a police officer huh. Its right of us to keep track of this guy.. I'll need to follow him for a while, a guy like this surely has connections. Bringing him down will be difficult." The officer said, looking at where the young kid ran.
*Ding Dong!*
'That's the school bell! Thank god I made it in time! Today's going to be a great day. We will learn about all sorts of rocks and sands in earth history!' The kid thought as he ran through the school gates and straight all the way into his classroom.
"Just in time huh Rin?" an ancient, disgusting droopy, looking teacher said
"Yes teacher! I'm here! Please show me your sand collection!" Rin said with sparkles in his eyes

"Do you truly think you deserve to see THE collection?" The teacher grinned
'Why are they interrupting class... We came here to learn..' The other students thought but didn't dare say anything to this scary teacher.
"Yes please please!" Rin cried out
"I will.. on one condition.. make it to level 100 in Sand MMORPG! Then you will be worthy of seeing my collection, and joining my Sand Alliance!" The old man blurted out excitedly
"Yes teacher I hope I live up to your expectations! This unworthy one was able to make it to level 25 last night!" Rin said smiling
"25.. in one day.. My god. You're a prodigy! Everyone's first day is usually taken up on trying to gain the skill Sentience! Keep up the good work Rin.. I may sponsor you in the future." The old man said with tears in his eyes and a look of shock
"YES TEACHER!" Rin screamed
The other students were so tired of this 'event' that they all left.

The Core of a Factory
An abandoned steampunk arms factory, in the middle of a conflict torn former state of the Empire it served, gains a soul. This transforms it into a Lord, capable of turning land into power. Beset by enemies on all sides it must figure out how to win the war its creators lost a century ago. This is a progressive Dungeon Core novel (which is to say the core will progress and expand in scale, eventually) across multiple dimensions with different characteristics (e.g. steampunk, magic, mythological). It has rationalist leanings (paragraphs of reasoning) and litrpg leanings (there are stat blocks). The core game mechanical idea is something like "what if different flavors of magic power actually did come from controlling land" and then the story is: "what if there was a flavorless (artifact deck) dungeon core". Chapters will be relatively short (my aim is that in three column format each would fit on a wide screen monitor), the first few chapters - setting up the main character and mechanics - are currently the longest in the entire series. I write chapters in blocks, and then release them one a weekday (M-F; 6 PM GMT, unless RoyalRoad's publish thing screws up) until I run out. There may be a few days of gaps here and there if someone finds an egregious error I have to re-write around or if I am behind. In general though one can read this once a weekend. I may do slight retconns and edits, I'll make sure to put it in an authors note if I do.
