《Gate keeper》Chapter 8 worries and races lecture
Advertisement
In the forest in the northern country a gate appeared in the forest. This country was a untouched land that the humans hadn't explored much because they wanted to leave the forest alone. The scenery itself was nice, it was just that when man came to map the forest in the northern country it'd defend itself. Trying to develop the forest also had the animals attacking them.
Many countries tried to develop the land into modern housing but to no avail.
The black haired girl held her twin swords in hand tilting her head in confusion at the forest before her. But she felt no mana. She felt something similar to mana but she couldn't put her finger on it.
"Anything Risa." (Yuan)
Risa the dark elf shook her head at the fairy on her shoulder. The tiny fairy was Yuan, her red hair seemed to glow slightly in the sunlight. Her wings were fluttering but she wasn't flying. Or more correctly she couldn't fly cause of the shortage of mana.
"But more importantly are you fine." (Evaline)
Her light blue hair was straight but the length of her hair was up to her but though she tied it up. Black armor that covered her top half of the body, her black leather dress didn't restrict her due to the slit in between so she could move without restrictions.
The dark elf had silver hair but she shook her head when she sighed.
"Where's the rest of their girls." (Risa)
"Just us three are up. 3 out of 50. So 47 of them are tired. You do know we're guarding the most dangerous world for the gods. But without mana, the gate can't function properly. It can't float much less travel. Our masks will eventually stop working but not right away. After all it depends on who has it longed for us. So that'd mean the 1st, Rika could remove hers but we should wait a few days for that. Information is important but I'm guessing a forest for beasts is the beast thing for us at the moment I mean we aren't even normal." (Evaline)
"Define normal when what we do is kill those that we deem unfit to go through the gate. Then if we don't see human greed we sneakily let them into the other world through the gates without telling the gods. But we're one of the oldest guards. You've been with us for longer. Just that your soul had been split for a while." (Risa)
"Sure I enjoyed those memories at my own selfish requests to my friend. She's someone above the gods after all. Do you know that there's ranks in races." (Evaline)
"No but care to explain." (Risa)
"Sure there's nothing to do when Rika and Rin is sleeping anyway. There's many races I'll say the main and which race is ranked higher then which. Afterwards I'll explain the races in full detail." (Evaline)
"Ok. I kinda got it start then." (Risa)
"Humans > Demihumans > vampires > spirits > demons > angels > dragons > Phoenixes > death and life masters > leviathans> soul reapers > gods and goddesses > Fates > holy beasts > creators & destroyers > Dimensions > God > Chaos beasts. Humans are adapting they're all rounded. Demihumans includes, elves, dwarves and beastmens." (Evaline)

"As I said I'll explain the races slowly. Well you already know most of the races. So I'll start off with the spirits. These spirits can be often mistaken for vampires, their tattoos differentiate them from your average vampire. They're pale skin so this creates problems for them. Many people that do die sometimes end up as a spirit if they can't go on to their next life. Royals inside the spirit world is naturally born there. Do you understand so far."
"Ok so spirits are different from vampire.....uh got it." (Risa)
"Demons have many types, ice, fire, earth, wind, lightning and elemental for their races. But they're all demons, there's also a devil. These follow their instincts for soul and blood if they don't listen to even those instincts then they end up massacring cities." (Evaline)
"I already know about dragons and Phoenixes. Most dragons are short tempered and easily angered right." (Risa)
"Wow you two went into full lecture mode." (Yuan)
"As life and death masters are humans that control life magic or death magic. But that is amplified into their whole body. They just live longer due to this fact though."
"But a quick question why are you breaking this into sections." (Yuan)
"So it's easier to learn instead all crammed up into a rant of information." (Evaline)
"Basically they're also humans is what you wish to say." (Risa)
"Yes." (Evaline)
"I got it so far, but I feel like you're explaining is the simple version of the complex version of it all." (Risa)
"Leviathans have 6 form: dragon form, serpent form, human form, Demihuman form, snake form, and massive sea serpent form. They tend to stay away from land. Living close to the sea on a island deep in the center of the sea. They're a race known for their beauty but when anger can cause destruction of continents."
"Isn't that bad Evaline." (Risa)
"Sorry I never angered one so I don't know. I just based the facts on history." (Evaline)
"Wait you never met one though you traveled a lot in those kind of worlds." (Yuan)
"I never met one until I became a gate keeper. You know Lin is a leviathan." (Evaline)
(Do know she never mentioned her past life though she remembers them. Also her close friends call her Evelyn so I'll change her name from here on so it's less confusing. Just so you know she's Yuki's mother.)
"Wait she's a leviathan. How is that possible Evelyn we known her so long and she doesn't even mention it." (Yuan)
"Yep." (Evelyn)
"I'll go on with the lessons if you want. Soul reapers are also in ranks of their own. They use guild ranks of G - SSS. Though instead of going up a rank they skip ranks. This is the norm for them. A ranks can't go above that rank. S rank can rank up like normal afterwards. But back in our world when I was traveling I heard a few things about A rankers, they eat about any race so seeing them in a forest is useless to run from them. S rank are peaceful and help those in need."
"Why did you look pale and disgusted when you mentioned A rank soul reapers." (Risa)

"You want the short version sure, they eat the soul while it's alive inside the body while the person is screaming and crying for dear life. Now are you going to make me mention my accidental meeting with them cause if I do and I throw up it's your fault." (Evelyn)
"Forget I asked." (Risa)
"Do continue your lecture." (Yuan)
"Hm short version of gods and goddesses is they regulate the laws. Fates are a soul race above the gods that only a select few know of them. They don't create fates, but can change a person's fate or destiny. They're a race that dislikes being involved with the world unless it's something major that might bring a huge imbalance or instability to the world. Then they intervene." (Evelyn)
"Quick question was the person that helped you a Fate." (Yuan)
"Smart. Yes she is. Reiki, in their tongue it means lightning. She taught me a few things to. Back then I had just returned to my clan. Afterwards I had just settled down after getting married to my childhood sweetheart. He was such..... dense idiot." (Evelyn)
"What was with the pause when you tried to word the personality of your own husband." (Risa)
"He follows the clan rules to the very last bit of it, I was family head of the clan though. Oh sorry I got sidetracked anyway, I met Reiki when she saw how happy I was and that I was condemned by the gods and my time was almost up. She decided to help. The fates call her and her type of people wanderers, they travel worlds and do as they please the longest they don't overuse their powers to turn fate for their own goals. Well she realized I had just settled down so she split my fates into halves. Meaning I'd have two life. One with my family until that short time was up and my original with you girls." (Evelyn)
"Meaning once other you died the memories all come back to you." (Yuan)
"See you get it. It wasn't that I died but you exact my other fate couldn't stay that long without being near the original anyway so for it to last long enough for my 2nd kid was luck itself."
"You're avoiding explaining the rest aren't you." (Yuan)
"Cause you don't need to know yet and explaining would just complicate things, just think of them as beings the gods can't touch. If they do they're more than screwed over." (Evelyn)
"Then explain one of them I don't get how are creators and destroyers in the ranks." (Yuan)
"Creators are beings created by life energy. They control life and can create life. To be exact they make the laws we see but doesn't enforce it. Rather they dislike the gods but just doesn't say much of it. It might be due to the fact for every creator born a destroyer is created. Destroyers are made from negative energy and emotions. These emotions come from other races negative emotions that are bottled up and need a outlet. If destroyers go somewhere there's bound to be natural disasters, plagues, famine and unusual storms. They also dislike the ones that they have those emotions from. "
"Some are friendly but can't escape their nature. They massacre cities, well they are born in a city which just ceases to exist afterwards. Let's say short version is it's only dead bodies and ruins after their birth. Destroyers aren't eccentric but they have to kill it's built into their system." (Evelyn)
"Fine explanation, next one what's chaos beast." (Risa)
"Ah I can't explain this all to well. Since you haven't seen the memory crystal replay history but chaos beast is what God calls them. They're not really beasts to be exact. They're females that lived longer than God. They're the ones that can also create worlds. But they lived with their siblings and they brought chaos to each other. They're few in numbers now but God and other Gods that rule that universe is scared of these chaos beasts. Because they're beings more powerful than them." (Evelyn)
"What's a dimension." (Yuan)
"I won't answer that one much into details. But short version female created from the existing worlds, 99.9% of them being female. The 1.1 % is male but they can't be dimensions. Dimensions are always girls. They're a mass made by worlds and the people inside them. Their source of energy is the worlds and people." (Evelyn)
"Why does Yuan keep asking the important questions but you sound like you don't wish to meet one." (Risa)
"Because they can change into any race but their appearance are never the same. The longest their world has a race they can change to it. Angering one can have them destroy a country or kingdom with a snap of a finger. Running into one is suicide." (Evelyn)
"But you seem worried." (Yuan)
"Let's hope her worries aren't confirmed that we're in one with the gate." (Lin)
"That'd be the most disturbing." (Evelyn)
"Never hurts to be cautious but why'd you go lecturing her about races that were unknown to even humans. If they don't know it's better to be naive." (Lin)
"It's better to know what we're up against. I just hope we don't meet a chaos beast as the gods call it. They bring insanity sometimes with them or they're too calm. Hopefully this isn't a world created by them. They're trouble but there are also some that are kind but I hope this isn't just me being too cautious." (Evelyn)
"So in a way you're warning them as well as yourself to not forget." (Lin)
"Yes." (Evelyn)
"So Risa anything." (Lin)
"No mana. Just a few animals in the 23 kilometers range. No humans." (Risa)
"You're our best sensor but no humans and only wild beasts that's odd. The gate usually appears most near civilizations. What's different this time." (Lin)
"Also Evelyn you forgot to add Celestial race after the gods in ranking." (Lin)
"It's not that I forgot it's more like they're an race that each individual has a different power that can be world changing so they're hunted down to almost extinction. They were once the most dominant and abundant race too. But they're now in the decline." (Evelyn)
"I see." (Lin)
"Evelyn go sleep you been up for days worried about us." (Lin)
"I'll do so when Rin is up." (Evelyn)
"That's what you said last time." (All) (Lin, Yuan, and Risa)

Gameplay
A world irrevocably altered by beings of supernatural inclination. Those people we know as more than human. Metahuman, suits, capes, supers. Heroes and Villains. The bearers of powers beyond the imagination. People capable of great good or great evil but greatness all the same. The capacity for the supernatural. The ability to move mountains with the mind. To travel across the world in a blink. To dance upon the moon. Commune with powers and energies unbeknownst to even those gifted with enhanced intelligence. To break the laws of physics and reality altogether. This is a story of growth. A young man, living near a PAT known for just that, beginning truly at the start. They say the moment a super originates is their true birth. The genesis of an individual shedding the chains of humanity and ascending into something greater. Whether good or bad, it was nearly a given that any super was destined for something extraordinary. That grand story, however, did not always start as miracle. For Ludus Rowth, it began with electrical baptism.

The Core, The Recordings of Raan - Fantasy LitRPG Story
The blue screens all around blink like crazy with red letters saying how I'm dead. I rage and wave my hands, but punch nothing but air. Then I remember what I was told, breathe in deeply, trying to steady my mind, smooth my anger, letting the blue vertigo take me with it, letting myself go...Hard-time convicts from a space orbital penitentiary are sent to a hostile planet where odds of survival are minimal. To make things even worse, their memories seemed to be wiped clean. But their killers' instincts are not, and they soon kick in.For a space wars old-timer Raan, it's all different. He remembers everything. And that's a problem. As others fight for survival, he remembers how most of them, himself included, should not even deserve to have a second chance.In a strange new world, as he fights his own demons, he is faced with new ones whose names he does not even know. But giving up is not inside his DNA and fight on he must. For to stop is to die, and to die means he failed, failed himself and all those who still desperately need him.***The Author's Note:This is another in the Core series, the first one being The Wardens of Destiny while there is also a side story The Memoires of Eisen that's exclusive on Patreon for those who would like to support me.The Recordings of Raan occurs after the events in The Wardens of Destiny, and it's a separate thread from the main story. Among other things, I separated it into a new book as it has elements of progressive LitRPG and a fantasy-world setting.Since I'll keep on writing The Wardens of Destiny, this will be one of my side-projects. Eventually in the future, I plan to integrate some of the protagonists in this story with the main storyline.
