《The Novel's Unifier》Chapter 21 - Keyboard Warrior (1)
Advertisement
Danny stayed in that room, unsure of what to do. Should he have left?
Thankfully, Hector showed up again, carrying a bright smile.
"You have no idea how long I've wanted to do that," he stated, before relaxing into his chair. He seemed to be turning into a liquid, as he slipped down his chair. He opened his eyes.
He seemed to only just remember Danny was there, as he froze.
"You may leave," he said, awkwardly waving his hand.
"Thank you, sir," Danny answered, bowing on his way out.
Danny went straight for the dorms, basically diving headfirst onto his pillow. However, he couldn't fall asleep.
He turned over, watching the source of his annoyance: Arthur yelling at the screen, tapping on his keyboard.
"Could you quiet down?" he groggily asked, lifting his head.
"Not if this piece of shit doesn't stop lagging," Arthur responded.
Danny got to his feet and started hovering over his shoulder, watching his play. Eventually, Danny couldn't help it.
"Alright, let me try." He cracked his knuckles, as Arthur begrudgingly gave him the seat.
It took Danny about three games before he started understanding the controls. Coincidentally, it also took Danny about three games to start winning.
It was a 1v1 game, named Keyboard Warrior. You controlled the character with the keyboard. It had custom characters for every player, which changed based on who you were. It seemed to remember who you were based on your irises, but Danny wasn't sure about that yet. You fought against an opponent who randomly matched with you, trying to see who wins.
But, it didn't seem to be so random. He had fought against the same person for all of the games he played.
Danny took a break, taking the food Arthur had just made. "Thank you," he said, putting it on the desk.

A Beginner's Guide to Napping, Sunbathing, and Slaughtering Your Prey
Fang is a simple cat. Fang likes napping in the sun. Fang does not like being called Chairman Meow. Fang likes his belly being scratched for precisely 17.329 seconds. Fang does not like being punted between dimensions. Fang likes hunting and killing defenseless wildlife. Fang does not like mysterious blue boxes that appear out of thin air. Fang is having a Very Bad Day. A few things to note: Fang is a cat soul in a cat body, and that's not going to change any time soon. No cat girl evolution or possessed puppet or any of that. The slice of life tag is there for a reason. There is no epic tale here, only a cat doing cat things in a (hopefully) interesting setting. The game elements are pretty light, mostly there for flavor, so don't expect a huge amount of crunch. Nature is cruel, and cats are crueler than most.

A Broken World [Rewrite]
In a world of floating islands of stone in the sky, where rivers flow through the air and defy gravity from one island to another, and ancient ruins can be found containing wonders beyond what can be produced by the lands current inhabitants- a millenia long war rages. In the distant past, beyond recorded history, when the crown of humanity's glory, the city of Uri, had stood whole against the enroaching demon swarms- even as hope seemed lost, a band of heroes, against all odds, managed to steal powerful magical knowledge from the demons. With the demon's forbidden knowledge, in the heart of Uri a new ritual was made. Called, "The Millenial Summoning," the ritual had the power to call a being from another world that would have the power to change the world forever. The first being summoned became known as "The Speaker," and he brought the power of the Gods to the world. With the blessings and power of the new priests, the unstoppable demon hordes were finally halted. A thousand years later, the ritual was used again and "The First Sorceress" was brought to the world. She brought the knowledge of advanced magics, and techniques to find and refine magical talent. With the magic power now added to the battlefield, the stalemate was broken. And for the first time, the demons were pushed back. Another thousand years later, and all of humanites hope for a final victory were dashed. Traitors slew the ritual's participants and took their places, and humanity quaked as The Demon King stepped into the world. His name, his nature, where he came from none of these are known, but what is known is his overwhelming power and his brilliant strategic leadership of the formerly formless hordes. Still, despite their position being even more dire than it has ever been since history has been recorded, humanity held on for another thousand years. Aided, thankfully, by The Demon King not taking the field after the first few years and battles. Now, the ritual is being cast again and a new hero is being summoned. In our world, after nearly three decades of study and hard work, Lucas Jaeger is making his dreams come true. With a double doctorate in both genetics and microbiology, as well as an associates degree in accounting, he has finally, after nearly driving himself mad from stress and sick from overwork, been able to put to together a presentation and ask for a business loan. His long time dream, earned by his own blood and sweat, to start his own commercial genetic company is finally coming to fruition. Lucas's car never left the banks parking lot and Lucas was never seen again in our world. This is a rewrite of "A Broken World." It is basically the same story, just a thousand times better and with decent length chapters!
