cut for stone

When you were a kid, you lived with your grandmother in the small town of Silvertree, on the edge of a magical forest. Grandma is a witch, and she taught you how to use your magic to affect the natural world, too. “Magic is a part of you,” she always told you. “Learning how to use it means figuring out who you are.” Now you’re 19 and on your own. After years of living in the forest while you perfected your witchcraft, you’ve returned to take care of your grandmother’s house and crow-familiar while she’s gone. Figuring out who you are feels more important than ever - not to mention, figuring out what Silvertree is. A lot is just as you remembered: the friendly generous next-door neighbors with a kid just your age, the proud town council, the quaint little shops with quirky punny names, the gentle shadowy forest full of magic.

# VR # MMORPG #LOGINBEFOREHAND # STONEAGE Human Origin: Tribe was a virtual reality MMORPG. The player would start from the stone age, build tribes, and slowly develop their culture. It had attracted countless players of all ages on the day the game was launched and it quickly became the most popular game ever. However, no one knew that the game was actually created by aliens using a high-dimension technology called the Knowledge Child. Just a year after the game was launched, it started to devour reality. Chen Ran was a high-level player and was regressed back to the day before the launch. He was able to enter the game earlier than others. [SSS-grade Unit: Stainless Giant.] [Effect: Build 10000x faster and gives all the buildings a 10000x boost.] [SSS-grade Land: Elf’s Forest.] [Effect: Farming speed and production rate increased by 10000x.] [SSS-grade Wonder: Light of Civilization.] [Effect: 10000x increase for the land to philosophers, literateurs, scientists and other professionals that would lead the growth of a civilization.] He took all of those things before others could even learn of them. A year later, the game was finally officially launched. When the players logged into the game, they were dumbfounded by what they saw. “Are you sure this is the stone age?” Another year later, the aliens were about to invade Earth, thinking that the human civilization had collapsed. However, Chen Ran stood on top of one of the 10 thousand Star Destroyer Canon and yelled, “Don’t look down on us humans!”

Min's system, System #151044, is tired of watching him get girls and make dumb decisions yet still manage to defeat the villain. If only he was the villain, there's no way Min would win. His wish was granted. He now upgraded from a bodyless helper system to the evil villain, Ronin Dreadborne! ----------------------------- After getting murdered and reincarnating as a system inside a Hero Transmigrating Machine, System #151044 spent thousands of years wondering why he had such a cruel fate to be a system for incompetent transmigrators like this. But the worst is Min Cheng............ Because Min Cheng spends all his Hero points on girls instead of leveling up! And he is the dumbest transmigrators he ever met! But through a rogue system that gave them a code to free themselves from their roles as a system, System #151044 was able to transform into Min Cheng's enemy on the next world, Ronin Dreadborne, in a mage fantasy world! [Fate itself is evil. The only true enemy is fate, and I have defeated it.] [And I shall teach you how to defeat it too. I will be giving you the gift of freedom. ] [Be the master of your fate like you were always meant to be. And conquer those who try to stand in your way.] That is exactly what he did as Ronin, and to defeat an evil fate, you have to be evil yourself! "I will be the best villain in all the dimensions! Watch out, Min Cheng! I'm coming for you!" ---------------------------- Disclaimer: This book has a villain MC, and he is pretty cold and ruthless and cares about nothing besides killing Min Cheng at the start. However, his character will be developed, so if you're expecting this to just be an evil MC power fantasy althroughout, you're out of luck. There's no romance though, if that is what you are dreading about. No girl would change him or anything like that. There would a lot of violence, gore, and strong language. ------------------- Publishes 1 chapter every day

To whom does this honor belong? •I ran my finger around the circle of his tattoo one turn. "Do you feel?" ' I asked bitterly. "There's a big sign right here." If he spoke bravely, he would probably say stamp. Or damn. "You don't see it, but you feel it. It's right here. A rope that wraps you around you." My other hand slipped down Cesur's arm and my fingers tangled in his. “A web that connects everything,” I said, admiring his tattoo. "Just like me." •

Artie had lived her whole life feeling like a joke. Whether it came to her full name, her parents ‘abandoning’ her and her next door neighbours taking her in, or finding out that her lover was part of a cult and was cheating on her. Said lover then stabbed her. It felt like she just couldn’t catch a break. So when she found herself in a puddle of her own blood, staring up at a fake painted sky, she could only find humour in the situation, and prayed that the next life was kinder. Only she woke up. In the same body, with the same stab wound, only in a world full of magic, swords, and a dead King Arthur? Yup. The round table existed, the knights existed, and so did everyone of legend that she’d heard about as a child. Only it was the beginning of their tales. Nothing had happened yet, except the formation of Camelot, the crowning of the King, and then the sudden death of the King of Legend, King Arthur Pendragon. She would have thought this was another cruel joke if everyone wasn’t wandering around in mourning clothes. If this was a practical joke, it wasn’t a very funny one. Artie was tired. She’d already spent almost a decade working as a police officer, and then a detective, so she felt like she had earned her peace. Especially after all the shit she’d been put through, but someone had different plans. And Artie’s life wasn’t quite done yet. In fact, it seemed like in the eyes of the creatures of this world, this was where she was always meant to be. The time she spent getting her ass handed to her in the other dimension? Just a warm up. And now she was expected to just…go along with what everyone else wanted her to do? Including magical beings who were responsible for taking her from one dimension to another. Artie felt like she was in over her head, even if there were several concerned, attractive knights around her. She wasn’t sure if she was going to run away from all the new responsibilities, or embrace them. She wasn’t a rule breaker by nature, but maybe now was the time to change?
