Going from burnt-out formerly gifted kid to monster-hunting adventurer is a rough transition. Getting ritually sacrificed is the obvious first step. Ripped from the dingy bathroom of an old bar through the cosmos, Greg Norwood arrives confused, naked, and surrounded by the corpses of the cult that summoned him. Marked (physically and spiritually) as Gifted by divine and demonic forces, he’s given powers that will kill him if he can’t keep them balanced and a glitchy user interface that is sometimes more hindrance than help. A dwarf engineer and a legendary elf adventurer "offer" to help him survive long enough to figure out what he’s doing. Unfortunately, the coastal city of Rhobair doesn’t plan on giving Greg a break. If the monsters in the sewers weren’t enough, a new drug just dropped that turns regular people into Gifted hunting ghouls. When hesitation will get him eaten by a kraken and powerful families play dangerous games, Greg can’t just coast anymore. He’ll have to learn to fight back, to connect, and to care, or he’ll die before figuring out why he was summoned in the first place.

A story about the sudden end of normal life and how with mysterious help the universe is conquered. The story starts in 2018 in our world and then no longer follows the past events. This story is told from the first person perspective. Sometimes at least i found it very difficult to create many chapters in this style in a really meaningful way for this reason i will only use the first person perspective as a stylistic device for interesting passages or sometimes a chapter. I (the main character) am Surgrim 22 years old and have led a normal life so far. I was rather bad in school and have an education as an IT specialist. Normally I sit at home at the computer and play whatever falls into my hands. But I let my grandma talk me into taking a real vacation on this fateful day. This is the first time I write a story and let other people read it I look forward to any helpful comments. Furthermore, English is not my native language and it may happen that my choice of words is rather strange. Again, please point this out to me so that I can learn and improve. In conclusion, I am writing this story in addition to my full-time job and it will happen that there are sometimes a few weeks no new chapters, but I hope that this is rather the exception. Edit: Vol.1 with 43 chapters is done. Happy reading

Something is wrong with Mai

Lots of lore regarding the dungeons and the civilizations that had fallen within it for you lorebrarians. - Update daily at 6pm CET -------------- “In a gold rush, the position of shovel vendors is reserved for the privileged.” That was a lesson Phong Tran had to learn the hard way. One year after the dungeon appeared, it had become a modern gold rush. People awakened classes, unlocked skills, and dove into the dungeon for its seemingly endless riches and resources. Phong, a level 1 Farmer with a dead EXP bar, naturally gravitated toward becoming a wandering vendor. While other people fought monsters, gained EXP, and became media heroes, he sold them socks, battery banks, and energy drinks. Phong existed in the space between glory and obscurity, until one day, a privileged bastard took everything from him. He was beaten half to death, and his aunt and uncle were “erased” for being inconvenient to those at the top. As if it had a cruel sense of humor, Phong received his first and only quest while lying in his sickbed: “Plant 10 potatoes.” No rewards. No promise of revenge. Just 10 potatoes sitting there, as if to mock his powerlessness. He took the quest. And now, he must conquer the dungeon with only 10 potatoes to his name.

Synopsis : Transmigration. The word still hit Regal like a cold splash of water - a reminder of how his old life, against all his wild imagination, had ended in the least cinematic way possible. No heroic sacrifice. No tearful goodbyes. Not even a poetic monologue. Just… poof. Lights out, curtains down, and show over. Yet, here he was, still alive. Regal Seraphsail - same name, same dreams, but in a world fourteen years into the past. New packaging, though. It was December 2009, in a world that was almost - but not quite - Earth. Then, there was The System. It rewarded him with skills, scripts, and creativity, all tailored to help him become the greatest storyteller this world had ever seen. For Regal, it was the perfect tool. Because, with or without it, Regal’s singular dream had always been cinema - and he will achieve it this time. From writing world-changing stories to directing films that redefined the industry, Regal was determined to become the biggest figure Hollywood had ever seen. His first step? Penning a book called＜Harry Potter＞and watching it take the world by storm. ===== Points to be noted: - This is a Parallel World. With different people, different backgrounds, and different ages. So, expect plenty of unexpected surprise cameos of celebrities. - No Harem (OC Female Lead). - The MC is not a money driven person, but he understands the practical need for success to bring his visions to life. - Don’t expect an overly realistic portrayal of Hollywood’s dark side, other issues, or any overly grim themes. - I am here to write a fun and entertaining story, not to delve into anything beyond that or political themes. ===== If you are enjoying the story and want to read early chapters, consider supporting me on Patreon! –> [email protected]/OrgoWriters .

Etam is gone, having traded his life in a cryptic self sacrificial ritual leaving Nil his body and identity—the last elven specimen in existence. Thrust into a life of unwanted "greatness," Nil is surrounded by Etam’s enemies, his staggering magical responsibilities, and the mystery of a "Visionary Sage" who saw fit to die in view of saving the world. To return to his own world, Nil must ascend through the ranks of sorcery, mastering a power he never asked for to solve the riddle of his own reincarnation.
