《Town or City |Wolfblood|》CHAPTER XXIV: Newcastle
Advertisement
Natalia was peacefully eating a sandwich in the meadow as she had wolfed out on the meadows and had managed to get far enough away the previous night, in order to wolf out alone on the moor meadows rather than from within the box of a cellar that Imara was in with TJ all night. Her phone rang out and she groaned quietly at the sound.
"Natalia's phone." She said and a bunch of growling was coming from the other end. "Hello? Liana, what's wrong?" Natalia asked and a low growl came from the other end, deeper than the others.
Liana's voice was a growl and Natalia sighed, as she looked over her shoulder and saw that Matei and Emilia were listening to the conversation.
"How serious is it? On the scale of one being the least to a thousand being--" Natalia didn't even get to finish her sentence, as she was standing and walking toward the two Covaci siblings.
Liana's words, and the growling tone of her voice suddenly made perfect sense. So much sense, that it made Natalia pull up and stop, as she reached the Covaci siblings and she growled in a fierce manner.
"My brother and my sister, who hate the human world... They are in Stoneybridge??" Natalia asked in total shock, as both Matei and Emilia looked very, very confused at their friend's half of the conversation that they were hearing. "Well, this is definitely serious. Has your brother said why they were hunting him?" Natalia questioned and Liana growled in annoyance, as Natalia heard the button of mute being pushed, as Liana was going to ask.
Liana's tone was almost freaked out now and Natalia shook her head slightly at her words.
"Worse than my absolutely ruthless brother and sister coming into the human world? What could possibly be worse, than that?" Natalia asked sharply and she heard the thudding of Liana's heartbeat through the phone when she listened.

Liana admitted and Natalia swallowed nervously and her heartbeat started to pick up the pace a bit at the sound of the Wild Alpha's name and she bowed her head, as she tried valiantly to regain control of her heartbeat and she felt Emilia's hand in hers and Matei's went on her shoulder, as they had felt her struggle and she bowed her head again.
"Why the bloody hell is the Alpha Leader of the bloody Wild Pack chasing your brother? There is only a few things that he could have done to anger him that badly and I honestly don't know of anyone who has survived his vengeance if they've broken a serious rule." Natalia stated and Liana growled.
Liana was understandably panicked as Natalia sighed at her words. later Liana practically shouted in Natalia's ear and Natalia looked at the two Covacis and she nodded slightly, as she looked at the back of her hands and she was veining up at the thought of one of her best friends being in pain and worrying like this.
"I can be there soon. I can talk to my siblings, they will feel that Alric has made the wrong decision by staying that long in the human world. However, there is no guarantee that even if they stand with me on this, that Alric will listen to our reason. Just stick by your brother's side until I have a chance to talk with my siblings, is that clear?" Natalia asked and Liana was heard talking to other people on the end of the line.
Liana said and Liana hung up the phone and the Covacis looked at Natalia, who sighed a little.
"Back to the country, I go. You two stay out of trouble, I mean it!" Natalia called out as she bolted out of sight as the two howls echoed after her.

The Elemental Arena
*A Rational-Adjacent litRPG Survival Series.* The time for the trials has come, pitting the mortal species of the galaxy against one another. By completing challenges, clearing dungeons, and defeating rival species, the players may forge themselves stronger and smarter. But only one species will be declared the winner. Earth has finally qualified... ...and participation is mandatory. A twenty-nine year old data entry clerk works together with a group of internationally diverse players to survive. Learning synergistic skills and using teamwork, can humanity achieve an upset? If they don't, their lives are forfeit. Author's note: Chapters will be anywhere from 6k to 10k in words, varying based on the plot beats instead of specific word counts. Realistic actions and teamwork will be important aspects of my story. I'm trying something a little different in writing a realism focused litRPG, hoping to capture the essence of how real people would react to their situation. People are complex and don't always get along. I don't recommend starting the series expecting wish fulfillment tropes just because it's tagged litRPG. It's a survival story with the game settings on Hell difficulty. The plot hasn't gotten there yet, but in the future of the series I want to recreate my nostalgia of forty person raids on Ragnaros, but with the high stakes of boss battles in Sword Art Online. I also love puzzle rooms so expect one of those each book. Warnings: mild PG-rated language, graphic violence and gore, and graphic medical content.

Wildling
Blurb: Silas--a scavenger living off the ruins of humanity--has spent his entire life fighting tooth and nail to provide for himself and his crew. But when a scavenging run goes awry and he's snatched up by an android patrol, he finds himself thrown into a cage and priced to sell as a pet. And when a suitor comes calling, he fears the worst: that he'll be turned into a Domestic, a human lapdog brainwashed into total obedience. Instead, he discovers an equally disturbing truth: that the creatures who stole his world have created a videogame the likes of which Earth has never seen; a sprawling, game-like theme park where humans are the Avatars and androids are the players who control them. And to make matters worse, his android guide is as hopeless as they come, having gotten all of her previous Avatars killed in record time. So if Silas wants to regain his freedom, he'll not only have to fight his way through a world that was specifically designed to murder him in brutal fashion--he'll also have to convince his android guide that he should be the one calling the shots. FAQS: Q: Who are you, handsome stranger? A: I'm Kyle Kirrin, the author of Shadeslinger, book 1 of The Ripple System, published by Portal Books, and I write crunchy LitRPG. Q: What is Wildling? And is it complete? A: Wildling is a crunchy LitRPG mash up of Fantasy and Science Fiction. And yup, Wildling is already complete at 64 chapters, or about 120,000 thousand words. You're looking at something like a third draft here--it's fairly polished, but it hasn't been picked over by a copy editor yet nor has my developmental editor seen it. Q: Upload schedule? A: 5 initial chapters today (2/15/2021) and one chapter a day for the next month. After that I'll probably slow down to 2 or 3 chapters a week until the story is complete. Q: How crunchy is it? A: It's pretty crunchy. I'd put it on the same tier as Ascend/The Land/RSSG, but it might be a bit crunchier than those three? Q: Is this the first book in a series or a web novel or what? And what are your plans for it? A: It's currently a standalone with series potential. Full disclosure: this story may head the way of my publisher eventually, but will be available on RR for quite a while no matter what. Likely several months after it's complete with plenty of warning before/if it's taken down. Q: What kind of build does the MC create? A: Sword and board! Q: Crafting? A: Plenty! Crafting isn't as center stage as it is in The Way of the Shaman, but it's close. Q: Base building? A: Two fully separate, distinct bases, both of which play a major role in the story. Q: VRMMO? Portal? Reincarnation or what? A: This one's a bit tricky. Basically an advanced race has created a game-like world that closely resembles a theme park. Think Westworld but with copious amounts of loot. And the MC has to fight his way through that to earn his freedom. Q: Permadeath? A: Nope! The MC gets 3 lives to play through the entirety of the game world, and death is extremely punishing, but not fatal. Q: Harem? Or romance? A: No and no. Q: Cursing? Blood? A: Quite a bit of cursing, yeah. There's blood, too, but it's not a gory book by any means. Q: How can I support? A: Instead of a Patreon/donations etc, I'd ask that you consider giving my debut LitRPG Shadeslinger a chance. It's free on Kindle Unlimited and the audio is already out narrated by Travis Baldree. It's an epic fantasy VRMMO where the main character gets 3 days of exclusive access to a new game plus a snarky, talking axe to guide him through it in exchange for agreeing to become the target of a serverwide manhunt once the Head Start period ends. Q: How's it similar to Wildling? And how's it different? A. The crunch level is very similar, but Shadeslinger is a much lighter, epic fantasy take on the genre. It's also VRMMO, but without any real world components aside from the first chapter. The MC is very different--he comes off as a bit of a jerk early on and can take a bit to warm up to, especially before his backstory is revealed--but he's also got a talking axe that constantly puts him in his place. Shadeslinger's a much more humorous story in general, and it's a great deal more polished as well. Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoy Wildling!

Isekai'd slave
Edward, a regular guy, is transported to another world at the wrong time and place. Slowly, he adapts, paves his way, and faces whatever misfortune awaits. This is my first work. I'm mostly messing around with different themes/characters. The first few chapters are pretty inconsistent, containing most of the rough experimentation, but if you can get past them - I'm sure you'll have a much nicer time. Do not expect anything of notable quality; however, any advice/criticism/suggestions are greatly appreciated. The story won't involve any dark themes, so no excessive violence, rape, etc. Discord
