Jack [How come you don't raise the price? Won't you get a deficit?]
Onu [Those books are here for quite a while. The other books gets sold instantly while these books have not been brought by anyone yet. The first few pages ridicule you and the other pages are blank. The books is at least hundreds of years old. I can give you it for free.]
Jack [You sure.]
Onu [Nobody would buy them anyway.]
Jack [Ok, thankyou.]
Jack store all the books but one in his bag.
Jack open up a book and reads it.
Jack (The books ridicules me which almost makes me to almost throw it out.)

Zhao Wu [Well, well what do we have here. A talentless orphan. Ummmm. Get out here trash.]
Zhao punch Jack in the face, knocking him to the floor. The other people don't care. Jack couldn't defend himself unless he wants to be killed by the Wu family. They beat up orphans to less nobles children because their family is so great. They do under the pretense of keeping them in check. They are who of the most spoiled children you will ever see.
Zhao and the others beat up Jack until they are satisfied. Jack is actually pretty fine. His trained body can tank punches of Late copper (Of course not without damage.) To not get beaten up more he act like he is unconcious.
Zhao Wu [I'm done. Let's go guys. I think we should eat at the super expensive restaurant at the main street.]
Wu goons [Alright, goons.]
The Wu family left and when they are out of sight of the shop Jacks gets up and sit back as if nothing happen. Of course Jack is bruised all over and cough up some blood. Jack can recovery from injuries
Jack (When I grow up I will make your entire family pay)
??? [I'm suprised you didn't kill those children for doing evil things.]
??? [I'm not going to that much stuff from now on.]
??? [Is that so]
Jack (What are two people talking about)
*Lee and Author 37 is talking super fast (I gave out their names)*
The cook finish the noodles and gave it to Lee.
Cook [That would be 20G.]
Jack handed the gold coins to the Cook and eat. Afterwards he goes to the orphanage to read more about the books.
Jack (So I should start training in the 3 energy techniques, physical body and energy control it saids. Ummmm...The words he use makes it sound easy. Lets learn to use the 3 energy techniques, once I get to the orphanage.)
The orphange is mostly empty because most of people work outside to gain working experince and gain money. Some of the kids are too young and others are cleaning up the orphanage and cooking food.
Jack went to his room to train.
Jack (According to this book, I should focus on concentrating and mediating until I feel like there is 3 types of energy in me.)
Jack mediates.

Nero Zero
Monsters plagued the lands for too long. No matter if one had fangs, beak, teeth, skin, fur, or feather, or was tall, stout, or diminutive, the people suffered. Until the Gadgeteers came with a device that could allow people to fight back. Powered by one's own magical power, feeding off of monster Essence, the Arbitrium bracer turned the tables. It also changed society. Strength of one's level cap was all that mattered. The strongest were Kings and Emperors. The weak or those too poor to afford the marvelous device, destitute. And so it has been for millennia. All that mattered was one's level cap. High, low, a fate decided the moment the strange contraption came alive. Too high and you were a threat to those interested in keeping the status quo, a weed to be nipped before it could grow and take root. Too low and you were nobody, fated to be a bit more than a simple farmer. What if someone, somewhere, came up with a zero for their level cap? Unable to use Essence, unable to level up. On all of recorded history, it never happened. Until it did. In a small village of fur-less and tail-less ape-beastkin, a boy found out he was uniquely handicapped. Nero's level cap was Zero. But he'd never let that stop him from reaching his goals. ------------------------------------------------ All stories have already been told. We merely reuse elements from them. From Joseph Campbell's Monomith to Stephen King's advice, and that encyclopedia of tropes you've visited, fiction has been dissected and reassembled countless times. One will surely find elements inspired on other works here. Just like cooking from basic ingredients, the recipe and presentation is what really matter. This is a fantasy adventure, of someone that goes from a zero to a slightly bigger zero. It will have romance but no harem. Cruelty but with hope dimly shining ahead. Lightweight where it can be, heavy where it must. Thanks for reading. Cover Credits (The cover is CC-BY-NC-SA): Steampunk Spider Bracer, by Daniel Proulx.

Piper
"It was one thing to find a harbor in a storm, and a complete other to expect that harbor to be safe." Piper Hayes has made it through three years of college at the University of Rhode Island basically unscathed - until the day her best friend, Molly, disappears from a job meant for Piper. Distraught, Piper lets herself fall into the company of a basically-unknown acquaintance, the impressive and charming Bash Rivera. Turns out, Molly's situation is the least of Piper's worries, and Bash doesn't quite manage to keep up his suave and sophisticated facade when events turn difficult. Mostly because, while he is trying to save her life, she spends all of her time afraid of him. Once Piper realizes her real enemy, she might find herself alone in her fight. If she manages to survive, just maybe she can graduate on time; more importantly, maybe she won't have driven away the one person who cares about her the way she cares about everyone else. IF YOU LIKE PIPER, READ THE OTHER FINISHED BOOKS IN THE EPIPHANIES SERIES: MARISSA AND AYLEE. OR COME READ THE COUNTERSIGN SERIES: NIGHTENGALE, [email protected], AND ALTAR EGO.

The Systems of the Multiverse - A Guide for the Multiversal Traveler
The Systems of the Multiverse have their issues. I, an observer from outside the multiverse have made it into my mission to tell you, the multiversal traveler about those issues and dangers. This is a relatively low effort NaNoWriMo and Writhathon project. I want to test myself if I can manage 55k words in a month, likely updating every single day until the end. This story is told in the form of an in universe book. Well, I say story... While this definetly won't be great, I still hope it will be enjoyable. I do my best to avoid grammar mistakes and spelling issues, but won't promise anything. Corrections are welcome, this is also an excercise to improve my writing from a technical standpoint. Not from a worldbuilding and character standpoint however, for that you need time. Oh, the keyboards (and computers) that the observer destroys are not real and only exists in story to have an excuse to easily end this story at the end of NaNoWriMo. I also personally like reading LitRPG stories, so this isn't meant to hate them. It might come over that way, but many of those issues are simply fun to think about: what would really happen if the world is so, seen through a lease of negativity :-) [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
