The Bypass City of Purgatory, Sigurd
The city which was located at the center of the [Purgatory Realm] had an access to four important places and three of them need a special bypass ticket as permission to leave this city or bypassing the city. The [Palace], the residence of all [God of Death] which located at the 298 km north of [Sigurd City] and to get there you need a bypass ticket directly from the [Sigurd City]'s Mayor. The [Oasis], a portal gate directly connected to [Heaven realm] was located to 312 km east of [Sigurd City]. Meanwhile, the [Ruin], a portal gate directly connected to [Abyss Realm] was located to 431 km to the west of [Sigurd City]. To enter either [Oasis] or [Ruin], the dwelling [Souls] in [Purgatory Realm] will need to be test where their deeds in [Mortal Realm] would be calculated. Based on their deeds, they would enter the corresponded gate. And the last is [Gate], the gate of [Purgatory] which conected both [Mortal Realm] and [Purgatory Realm] was located to the 412 km south of [Sigurd City].
Hearing such things from Ririana made me wondered in silence. If it was like what she said, it means that [Sigurd City] hold a very special meaning in the [Purgatory Realm]. And it makes me curious to who was the Mayor of this city, which govern over this city pretty well. By the way, it seems that I misheard something.
"You said earlier there was [God] living in this realm right? By no mean it was [God of Death]?"
"Yes and no. Precisely this realm was a living place for exactly 13 [Gods of Death]."
"Huh? How come there's so many [God of death]?"
"Because the [Gods] was originally a personification from all kinds of mythology and beliefs of mankind."

Hearing such an outrageous things makes my eyes wide open. Should she really open with this kind of thing was only thought on my head. Surely I can grasp the theory behind her words but if she put the words like that, isn't it sound like she doesn't like [Gods] pretty much. Though she was working with one of them.
Well currently we was strolling around the city aimlessly while I am admiring the view myself. Probably in my point of view it was aimless because I really don't know this city well but Ririana herself walked through the crowd with an expressionless face. While all the crowd simply avoided her because of her rank, wary of her. And there's no way I'll be ignored it was because of this big-shot walking with me that I got full attention only to myself! Dang-it!
While I am grumbling to myself, we have already arrive to a nice looking building. Based on it appearance, it seems like this building was a hotel.
To think there was a hotel here. My expression about the fantasy world all change instantly leave it as only in my dream. Yeah to hell with this! There's no way this is a mere pure fantasy world!
"Somehow I feel like 'let's quickly go to heaven' already."
"No can do. You need to pass the 'special test' if you want to go to [Heaven Realm] and if you failed you've only passed to go [Abyss Realm]."
"Thought so."
This is become more and more absurd. Let's escape reality here. Please, god let me escape this reality!
We enter the hotel and immediately booking for two room. It seems like even in the [Purgatory Realm], they still use some kind of money here.
"Its would be 400 [SoulBit] for two rooms."

"Here it is."
"Thank you for your patronage. Here your keys. Your rooms would be 303 and 304."
[Soulbit]? That's the money of this realm? Yeah let's escape the reality now as it's become a distortion fantasy.
"Hey what're you doing? Let's go to our room, you're wasting my time here."
"I-I'm coming."
Yeah on that day I feel dejected so because of that let's go sleeping in my room. I realy get a fucking tired of this reality. I only hope right now that this is all either just my dream or a distort illusion. Yeah I hope so.
The dark cold night comes, the city started to bright with lights and lamps. All [Souls] in the city still dwelling in this bright city, laugh of a happy and merry [souls] resounds in the air. It shows the sign that all [souls] were currently having a fun night. But no one knows that a shadow that lurking in the shadows would soon bring out a very bad luck to this very own citizen. And the shadow itself known that it's time to_

Restart (Reborn as a Reluctant Demon Lord, Book 2)
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] This is book 2 of the series! If you haven't read book 1 (which you can find here https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/34776/new-game-reborn-as-a-reluctant-demon-lord-book) then you should probably do that first to avoid spoiling yourself in the synopsis. But that's just a suggestion. If you want to be confused, go ahead. Have I used enough space so that you can't see this in the preview yet? Okay, good. ----- For a [Demon Lord], not even death is the end. So, after death, I found myself revived once again in the world of Placeholder as a grotesque monstrosity. That was my first reincarnation, but it would not be anywhere near my last. Disillusioned with the admins and their quests, and wanting nothing more than to fix the mistakes of my past, I set out with a new goal in mind. To bring back the woman I loved. Or maybe... to ensure that she never died in the first place.

Catalyst: Avowed
The year is 605, and in your home— the country of Corcaea— the souls of mankind belong to demons. A phenomenon known as the "Catalyst" is what's to blame. This diabolical phenomenon lurks within every man, woman, and child. It can turn any human into a demon, if they fall prey to one, all-consuming element. It can be anything. Fear. Grief. Generosity. Even love. In a land where Gods are real and Corcaea's theocracy is the last hope for mankind, you follow in the footsteps of Father Richard Anscham: a deeply disturbed young priest, the leader of the Church of Mercy, and the foremost researcher of the Catalyst. Despite completing a holy mission from the Goddess of Mercy, obtaining a holy Relic, and escaping from demon-infested ruins, Father Anscham is in greater peril than ever before. Ravaged in mind, body, and soul, the solace he begs to receive from the Church of Flesh is impeded by a cruel lesson: the ramifications of a life spent sacrificing everything one has for others. See through the harrowing eyes of a man at his wit's end; through a dark fantasy tale of horror, hope, and desperation. Search for the cure. Conquer your personal demons. Welcome to Catalyst! As this is an archive of Catalyst Quest (an interactive, collaborative story), the prompts that were included with the original run of Avowed have been stripped, and the story is presented like a traditional novel for your reading convenience. If you would like to read Catalyst in its original format or participate in current events, you can find us here, on Sufficient Velocity. This book is complete! The story will continue with Catalyst: Calunoth, just as soon as I am done revising its content for here on Royal Road.

The Fundamentals
You hear of many tales out there. Some depict worthy heroes wielding tremendous power, noble personas that fight to save the lives of their close friends, family, and all the rest. Good triumphs over evil, that is simply the way the world works, no? While this premise is something inherent to nearly all stories, what exactly the heroes used to attain success can differ greatly. Perhaps they've trained themselves to the limit, pushing past boundaries nobody else could hope to achieve. Others still, have merely inherited the grand legacy of another legendary being, but what they have done with such a legacy would cause their names to be passed on for generations. Rowan is one of the heroes who have ventured beyond the horizon, tempering themselves on a perilous journey all the while and succeeding in attaining strength beyond measure. However, in an unexpected turn of events, this strength caused him to tear open and fall through a hole in the realm he resided in. Now he has ended up in a completely foreign realm, whose inhabitants utilized strange powers that eclipsed his own. Fortune would smile upon him this day, however, as he discovered that they were not hostile, and even offered to teach him their ways. Rowan could see that this was truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and eagerly accepted their invitation to learn what would come to be known as: The Fundamentals.
