What the hell was that final attack Grey?
“Impressive right I’ll allow you to see my amazing stats just see how awesome I am!” Grey said
[Name: Grey]
[Race: Dungeon Gargoyle]
[Level: 1]
[Health: Infinite]
[Mana: 0]
[Skills: [Dungeon Bound] [Super Ultimate Gargoyle Punch of Doom Super Godly Max Level] [Telepathy]]
[Titles: [Ability Creator]]
… I am speechless right now so did you actually kill her?
“Well yes now absorb her body.” Grey said
Well time to eat. The body slowly merges to the ground
[Demi-God Body found would you like to use it as a base for creating your Body?]
Well yes
[Demi-God Body has been set as base for creation of body, to complete new body you require 50,000 mana, 2 tons of steel, 60 lbs. of mythril, advanced knowledge of Construct, and a Construction Floor]
Man these requirements are insane, oh right isn’t there still two humans still alive in me?
“Yeah the one in the boss room if he doesn’t wake up in a minute he will be teleported out as he did defeat the boss as for the other let me try talking to her” Grey said
Alright, I guess it’s now time to list the loot I received from killing these guys. I receive 2 regular souls, 1 demi-god soul, 2 pairs of Iron armor, one priest staff and robes, 2 shields, I couldn’t get any of the demi-god’s equipment well whatever. I also from the whole thing got a total of 10,000 mana, which of course rounded up because I like rounded numbers.
Most of mana of course from the demi-god likes 90% of it actually she was practically loaded with mana.
Oh Grey is about to talk to the girl who Blaster bit the legs off.
The Barrier the mage set is already gone so Grey is waking up to her.

“Slap of Destiny!” Grey yells
Oh gods if this ability shows up when he gives me his status next time I don’t think I’ll be able to control myself. I’m mean seriously how did in the world did it actually get written up as an ability.
Oh and if you are wondering why he has infinite health it just means he can’t die while I’m alive that’s all.
Grey slaps the girl a NORMAL slap, the girl seems to wake up she seems startled.
“Who are you demon? Where are the rest of my group, and WHAT HAPPENED TO MY LEGS.” She starts crying and screaming saying stuff like my life is over and other melodramatic stuff like that
“Slap of Destiny!” Grey yells again
Oh he uses the other hand this time, oh the girl is now quiet but her eye is still red.
“Now then to answer your questions, my name is Grey and I am a representative of the dungeon, your friends except one are all dead however they left you hereto die without any real protection however, I convinced the dungeon to not attack you. I would like to make a deal with you.” Grey said trying to give a comforting smile. The smile on his stone face was not a good picture.
“You Devil, trying to coax me with your words, I trust my friends had no choice as I had lost any ability to fight and would’ve been only a hindrance if I continued!” the girl said
“Tsk girl I’m giving you a choice other than death here be at least grateful.” Grey said
“My name is not girl. If I am going to die I would at least like to die with some honor. My name is Sara. After you kill me my soul will return to the god of Life and I’ll revive and take revenge on you.” Sara said

“You don’t know?” Grey asked
“Know what? Why aren’t you killing me already?” Sara complained
“Uhm, unlike normal dungeons this dungeon eats souls to strengthen itself, so uhm once you die your soul won’t revive but be used to create a new monster in this dungeon.” Grey said
“Wait What? You lie! T-T-T-hat can’t be possible.” She says trembling
“I’m not lying here mind you the dungeon has captured the soul of all those who entered it.” Grey said “I’m offering you a deal here, instead of having your soul taken and used to create a monster, you instead retain your memories and skills but become a vassal of the dungeon. Which still means you become a monster but at least you keep being yourself.” Grey says while shrugging
“Doesn’t that mean I lose my free-will?” Sara asks
“No it’s just like working for a new boss that’s it.” Grey says
Sara stared into the eyes of Grey before asking “Will I still be able to fight?”
“I think that’s kind of obvious seeing as the whole point here is to lure and kill people into this dungeon.” Grey answered
She takes a deep breathe in and says “I would prefer this than you using my soul to create mindless monsters I accept.”
“Hey dungeon focus on her and propose a Dungeon Vassal Contract.” Grey yells to no one in particular wait I think that yell is supposed to be me well whatever
[Would you like to Offer Dungeon Vassal Contract to Human Sara]
Yes
Sara is startled by the prompt that appears in front of her.
[Sara has accepted this contract her body will now convert to match the dungeon]
Sara seems to faint before a layer of light appears and completely covers her turning into a cocoon of sorts.
So what now?
[You have lost 2000 mana]
…that would be great if I would’ve known beforehand.

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!

But the perils of their path increased as an unnatural surge in activity of the vicious Nightmares, whom even Erhan didn’t dare face in direct combat, stood in their way. And encompassing everything, lay a vague sense of a dread that only those with the gift of premonition could sense. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
