《Slasher House (Completed)》1
Advertisement
Seeking: a full time caregiver for property and tenants. 1031 Elm Garden Way. You read the words over and over again as the train moved further out of town.
It was so strange. The classified had no phone number or email and seemed very vague, almost too vague but it was an offer none the less. As someone who shifted from job to job you never really stayed around in one place for too long.
You decided to go to the address and consult with the publisher of the add. What was the worst that could happen? They tell you the job isn't for you?
You laughed the thought off and held onto the railing beside you as the train slid into another station. More people got off than on and soon the almost vacant cart was gliding on the tracks again.
You leaned your head back and tried to relax as the hum from the rails vibrated the cabin. There was a woman a few seats down from your that seemed to notice your discomfort. She smiled as you looked up at her and you could tell she was about to try to spark conversation.
"Are you nervous?" she asked. She didn't know you or where you were going but she must have read you correctly.
"A little, I have a job interview." you said with a smile. She nodded, "Where is it, if you don't mind my asking?" she said with a sweet and nurturing tone. "Off Elm Garden Way." you said reading from the newspaper you clutched in your hand.
You looked back up to meet the woman's concerned eyes. "My that is all the way up in the hills. You'll have some way to go before you get there. It must really be some job interview." she said with a fading smile and a seemingly nervous laugh.

You weren't from around here and had only lived in the city for about a month. No friends or family so you figured an obscure job wouldn't be the most troublesome thing. You cut your way out of the conversation and looked out the window at the tree passing by.
You had made it to the countryside and while you still had a while to go there was no harm in admiring the passings of the landscape. You shifted in your seat and leaned your head on your arm. Hopefully this was going to be worth your time.

Arduous New World
Alright, so I'm using this as a whetstone to practice my fiction writing. I have dyslexia, so bear with me if I have any mistakes, if you point them out I'll try and correct them. The story is LitRPG, I'll try and avoid some of the tropes, see FAQ. What happens is that the world turns out to be a simulation coming to an end, and beginning on its new simulation, in this process the system of the universe declares that the new simulation will be rpg-based. The protagonist however is thrust into an empty space before the simulation comes to an end, he escapes and finds that the world as he knew it is gone.Chapters will come sporadically as I'm quite busy IRL. FAQ1: There will be no Harem. 2: If any sexual content, it will be be below the screen, example sentence [they made love - or - they had sex]3: I'll try to keep character motivations steady instead of having characters who says and does one thing in one chapter, only to change their mind in the next one. 3: Villains or "bad guys" won't be charicatures. Of course, as in real life, you can meet these people, but as far as big bads or antagonists goes, they will have some modicum of intelligence. 4: The MC does not have an encyclopedia of random knowledge. 5: OP'ness won't happen overnight, and it is something that I'm wary of in terms of adding it, of course eventually the MC will grow more powerful, but there won't be any cheats, except hard work; and the luck factor will be more or less similar to the rest of the population. 6: He won't be opposing the universe, no matter how powerful he grows, he is too insignificant7: he won't become friends with god/the ghost in the shell etc, no matter how powerful he grows, he is too insignificant, and an ancient simulation ai has no interest anyway, why would it ? Okay that's that for now.

Though, of all the guilds that dot Granis and its kingdoms, there is one that holds these legends as true. The Blue Star Guild seeks the truth to these stories and refuse to let anyone dissuade them, for in the words of their master: "The most foolish of tales, make for the greatest of adventures" Image supplied by Shutterstock
