《The Gambling Demon King is full of Misfortune》Chapter 7
Advertisement
I’m in the streets of... some shithole of a city.
I lost my wife, my kids, my job and eventually my house.
My wife cheated on me with several men and when I caught her… she filed for divorce.
She got the kids.
Then, my boss fired me… it turns out that he was also fucking my wife.
Then, since I didn’t have any money to pay for rent, I lost my house too. So, I became homeless.
Now, I’m just sitting in the streets, with a bottle of vodka and a ten dollar bill in my hand.
“I have nothing to live for… you know what… fuck it, I have nothing to lose... nothing to gain... I may as well just end it here”
I said, as I got up and walked onto the street.
The truck driver didn’t even see me. That was how insignificant to the world I was.
He ran me over, killing me instantly. But, not painlessly.

“AAAAARGH!!!!”
I shouted, as I woke up from my nightmare.
“It was just a dream… it’s not going to happen again… not again… alright then, back to training!”
I said, with a smile on my face as I grabbed the short sword, walked up to a tree and started slashing at it.
“This is how I’m going to get a new skill! Maybe it’ll be a Slash skill or something similar!”
I said with a grin on my face.
I slashed the tree around a thousand times, until several screens popped up before me.

“Holy shit, I’m actually even more powerful… let’s see… I have the dexterity of an average person and… the will of… a child? Are you shitting me!? Fuck that! Back to the tree!”
I shouted in anger, as I continued to slash at the tree.
After five hours I finally got a few screens to pop up.

“Awesome! I’m even better at wielding a sword! This is great… now, to hunt!”
I said with a smile on my face as I walked into the forest.
After an hour of not finding anything, I saw a large beast.
It’s an ogre!
“Me and my fucking luck!!!”
I shouted, causing the ogre to look my way.
“Oh shit!”
I shouted, again as I swung my shortsword at it and prepared to use my club.
“Die, motherfucker!”
I shouted as I hit it in the head with the club, which did nothing.
Actually… that was wrong, it did something… it angered it.
“ROOOAR!!!”
The ogre roared in rage as it swung its club at me.

“Fuck!”
I shouted as I dodged the club and hit it in the leg with my club and stabbed it with the shortsword.
“GRAH!!!”
It shouted in pain as it tried to crush me with its fat leg.
“Fuck off ya bastard!”
I shouted, as I sliced one of its toes off.
“GRAH! GRAH!!!”
It shouted, as it tried to crush me using its club.
I responded by climbing on it, all the way to its face and headbutted it, using my horns to my advantage.
“Ha ha! How do you like that! Getting stabbed by my horns!”
I shouted with a maniacal grin on my face as I stabbed it in the ear using my shortsword, killing it.
“Oh fuck!”
I shouted as it began to fall, with me on it!
“Fuck… that hurts…”
I said, as I tried to push the dead ogre's arm off of me before other predators come to eat its corpse.
It didn't work. I’m stuck.
“Get… off of… me!”
I shouted, as I pushed the arm, slightly.
“Alright! I can do this! I have the strength of four men! I can do this!”
I hyped myself up, as I… eventually pushed the ogre's arm off of me and limped my way back to camp.
“Fuck… oh god that hurts”
I said as I took a look at my leg.
“Oh god… that… that doesn’t look good”
My leg was broken, the bone was sticking out of it.
“I’m so fucked…”
I said as I limped my way onto my bed.
“System…”
I said.
Yes?
“Lottery… please”
Rolling.
“First aid kit”
“Healing Magic”
“Doctor”
“Cast”
“Necromancy”
“Bone Magic”
I ended up with… Healing (one time use)
“I… this… I- I’m actually lucky? Oh god! Thank you system! I really needed this!”
I said, as I used it on my leg.
“Huh? AAAAAAARGH!!!”
I shouted in agony
“Kill! Me!!!”
I shouted as my leg was consumed by the incredible pain.
“AAAAARGH!!!”
I screamed in pain, for what felt like hours. Until the pain suddenly went away.
“Wha- what was that!? System! How long did that take!?”
I asked.
Exactly five minutes.
“F- five minutes!? It felt like five hours!”
I shouted.
…The system simply ignored me.
“Right… okay… looks like I have to go back out to actually find food!”
I said, as I went back into the forest and instantly found a wolf!
“Fuck you! Why weren’t you here a few hours ago!?”
I shouted as I hit it on the head using my club multiple times, killing it.
I swiftly returned to camp to cook the wolf.
“Still tastes like shit”
I said, as I kept on eating it, along with the last piece of bread which I got a couple of days ago.
As I was eating, a few screen appeared before me.
2000 EXP
250 EXP
21/50
“2000 EXP? Holy shit… alright then, let’s see how much more EXP I have to get to level up… [Status]”
I said.

“Wait… fuck! Shit! I forgot about the hidden mission! I was so caught up in my new sword. Fuck, I should make the lost time up tomorrow by hunting! But… before that… I should go sleep”
I said as I went to bed.

Morcster Chef: Reckoning
Adventurers flock to massive crypts brimming with riches and promises of power. Heroes storm the gates of dark fortresses, their swords drawn in the name of freedom. Gods tear the heavens asunder, clashing over the fate of the realm itself. Arek cooks lasagna and tops it with a dash of finely chopped basil. Arek never wanted to fight again, but his plans have gone awry in the best way possible. After joining the Happy Sunflowers as their cook, Arek quickly grew attached to his new friends and party. After escaping a strange dungeon by the skin of their teeth, the group find themselves plunged into a struggle for power that has simmered beneath the kingdom for dozens of years. The strange power that has entered Arek and Ming seems to be spreading to the rest of the party, and none of them know what it wants. Arek's past barks at his heels, but he has no plans of going back to the person he used to be. The future seems uncertain, but there is one thing the orc knows for sure. He has meals to prepare, and, this time, nobody is going to kill his friends. All the recipes in this book are real recipes that I have personally made. The actual recipes will be included at the end of the chapter, and I highly encourage everyone reading to try them out. In addition, make sure to check out the Morcster Chef comic at this link! Morcster Chef: Reckoning is the 2nd book in the Morcster Chef series. You can read the first one on RoyalRoad at THIS link. IMPORTANT NOTE: Morcster Chef is a comedy / fantasy novel. It has equal parts cooking and Dungeons & Dragons style adventuring. It does not have: an OP / bitter protagonist, harems, excessively dark topics, or a depressing storyline. It is meant to be lighthearted. Cover art by CyanGorilla

The Power of Ten: Book One: Sama Rantha, and Book Two: The Far Future
(Author's Note: If you're wondering about the views, it's +1.8 million more on Webnovel, its original home. Updated daily starting Dec. 26, 2018, and continued with Book Three.) Some time ago, a planes-traveling archmage made up a video game to train some people on the planet Earth for the catastrophe he knew was coming. That game was the Power of Ten. The gods seized this opportunity to take the templates of some of those characters, and even their souls, for use in other worlds, and other realms. Sama Rantha is one of those characters, and is going to find out that being a Hagchild and having to survive after your Hag Curse fails to murder you at birth is much, much less fun than setting it as your Race at level One on a gamescreen. Join Sama Rantha on her Road to Ten, and letting her Hagmother know exactly what she thinks of her... ------ Warning: This book starts with a HARD OPEN! It was written as an extension of other stories that have not made it onto the Internet yet for National Novel Writing Month in Nov/2018. Book One/Sama Rantha: A traditionalist LitRPG in the fantasy world vein. The beginning chapters will be heavy with gaming terms and the supporting math as Sama exploits the rules as much as possible, minmaxing her heart out to get one up on the world trying to kill her. The math and rules lawyering tapers off, but are never eliminated, as Sama is going to do everything she can to exploit the rules of reality here and not die, while making sure those responsible for this get exactly what is coming to them... ------ Book Two, The Far Future (starting Ch. 286): The Warp, the final frontier; in the grim darkness of a galaxy far far away, there came a hagchild...QX! Sci-fi/Fantasy/psionics mashup, grimbright clashing with grimdark! Sama is sent into a setting she'd rather not be in, but the heart of a powergamer never says no, even in the crapsack galaxy of the Tellurian Empire. BOOK TWO IS COMPLETE WITH 357 CHAPTERS AS OF 9/2020. ----------- Book Three (updating daily): The Human Race (next Book!) - Urban Fantasy world. Three Power of Ten gamers come together in a world under the Shroud of the Cancer of Death. Whatever might happen when they do, and what might they find there? Book Three is complete with 500 chapters: right here. Book Four: Power of Ten is dumped into the Marvel Universe. Surely there'll be no changes to canon when that happens? A Fanfiction variant, with teeth! Dynamo The Original Sama Stories: Being posted at: over in this location. +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Discord link: in zis location is always up if I'm online.
