Earth suffered apocalypse. All electronics over the world were destroyed. War and famine ravaged the lands. When humanity tried to rebuild, they discovered that most technology no longer worked. The laws that governed the world had changed!

Steam technology rose in popularity after the apocalypse. Humanity entered a new golden age. Then, the seven nightmares attacked. Espers with strange powers appeared. Mutants took over most of the world. This was the beginning of the Mana Apocalypse!

My name is Edward Tesla and I was born during the Mana Apocalypse. This is my story about trying to protect everything I care about in this living hell. My inventions will defeat the nightmares and save the world! Steam rifles, steam tanks, and steam mechs. My inventions will surpass them all!

Extra Note from the author: Some of the early chapters are a bit rough and need rewritten. Most of the long-term fans come from Chapter 21 and up. I guarantee the story continues to improve from there as you continue reading.  Political factions, wars, steam tech, mana mysteries, and more. Though the story starts in America, it also visits China, Europe, Africa, and other areas of the world later on.

#Apocalyptic

BL about a guy who reincarnated as Dracula’s sacrifice. Coming soon

... Lyphom"
A light intense enough to force him to close his eyes gleamed. And now, with his eyes still closed, he feels the embrace of the new world, the chilly wind, the smell of nature and the warmth of the sun.

in front of him was a beach with white sand and crystal clear water. looking back at a rainforest full of colors and sounds of birds.

"this place looks like one of those paradisiac islands that appear in movies" he exclaimed out loud.



after a bit of contemplation...

(how that hell my powers work? is not thinking for activation, maybe voice?)

hrum... hrum

he clears the throat.

"multiverse shop!"



[welcome to the multiverse shop]

• words products

• weapons

• tools

• food & supplements

• miscellaneous

• poisons & potions

• materials

• books

{multiverse credit= MC: 0}

advice: you can only win MC with the reward system.
 

I start to browse the shop. If i put the worlds products as "all worlds" the list of weapons, tools, etc is infinite. But if I put the "Naruto world" the list became very small.

I look to a lot of stuff, and I find very interested items, but sadly, I don't have any credit. 

"well this is nice let's test the next power. Reward system!"

[Reward system]

• write a mission

• completed mission

• hiatus mission

• abandoned mission

• fortuna missions

• log

Marc look for all the function, end he gave a big scream after.

"HOLYFUCKINGMOTHERSHITYCOW! THIS IS TOO OP"

"I can literally put a mission: hold your breath for 3 seconds or more

reward: 1 billion MC."

"now I understand why that fatty god insist in say that he was omnipotent. I have to be careful with this power, I chose immortal life because I don't want to die again, but I want some challenges. I will restricted my self. yes that's a promise"

he immediately erased all the credits he received during the tests. how he does that? it simply buys a huge container of oxygen and free on the atmosphere, unfortunately the container gets thrown on the beach. 

after that he explore the others functions, basically, all of them is what the name says, the last two that are special, when you write a mission you can put an option on them, story mission, means you don't need to accept, after you do something you simply received the reward for completing. and the other option is the fortuna mission, this is a gigantic spin wheel that you can roll and receive a mission, this are the mission that can enter the hiatus and abandoned section.

After writing a fortuna mission an option of "abandon consequence" is open, Marc's likes a lot the way the system works.



"I will make some mission later, now how can I use the modulation power?" he walks until find a nice tree, he concentrate wich all of his might, and a face start to form in the bark, obviously is not a live, but is very realistic face. Marc is not an artist, but his work in the tree would impress any professional.

the power is a slow to work, initially he was hoping to be like "Forge" from "steampunk apocalypse!" 

(I look to my hand, but no way i will be messing with my on body, Edward is truly a crazy guy to transform his on body)

"the only power to test is the immortality, but I don't feel god you play me, but a the same time I don't full trust him"

Marc opens his reward system and broke his promises, holding his breath for 3 seconds he gave himself the power of wolverine.

he have a weird sensation, his vision became blurry, he takes out the glasses, and his vision was back, wolve powers cure him from myopia, now he can is probably immortal, since he broke his promise for a greater good, he is not feeling bad, and promise again that will not use de reward system unjustly.

(yes I can give myself immortality as reward, but wolverine power is way cooler, so fuck off)

"ouch! gee'z hurts a lot when the bone claws pop out, I don't now how wolve uses like nothing."

after testing all of his powers, Marc decided to find a human settlement.

Follow Marc and his subordinates, in the construction of his empire. A immortal man, gifted by god which a system he has ALL control. He will trying everything that he can to use his infinite power, and have fun wen constructing his Empire!

---The Editor's POV---
Well, that just happened. First, me and two friends die and appear in a pitch-black void standard stuff of an isekai novel right. I mention that to my friends reminding Dryad of the tropes since she seems weirdly out of it claiming to see colours but looking around again, yeah this place is empty as all hell. But damn, her voice sounded weird for a second. What was it she said?
"What are you two talking about, can't you two see the ć̴͇͙ò̴̩̆ḷ̸̃̀o̶͖͍͝u̴͉͆̀ṛ̷̗̑s̵͎̿ in the distance"
Then god appears threatening to kill us what an asshole. Then another guy appears killing god claiming to be the devil.
I now feel him looking at me "I do not claim to be the devil child. I am the devil."
Well fuck, guess the devil can read minds.
"Yes I can, and it is rude to think about someone while in telepathy distance."
The devil clears his throat for a seconds before putting on what I can only describe as a customer service smile and voice.
"You three young souls, caused an apocalypse yes? That results in a lot of harmful Karma more so because the world wasn't meant to end yet meaning you three somehow destroyed fate and destiny within your world that is quite an achievement. After all, it means that as your world ended so did every single possible parallel timeline truly a masterpiece of destruction."
Wiping a fake tear from its eye the devil continues. "Now, as a fellow world ender, I can respect new people joining the craft as such I have taken it upon myself to introduce myself and give you two options."
I begin to feel hope rising in my chest. Is this it? could it be my chance for a bullshit multiverse wish fulfilment journey. I see both the devil and my friends looking at me funny. Did I say that outloud?

Mr gunslinger gives a dead-eyed expression and states "No, but you are vibrating so much it's easy to tell what you're thinking."
The devil clears his throat with a faint look of amusement. "Now Option the first, I eat you, this will spare you from the torment that your negative karma will ensure you face in the afterlife. Side benefit, I get to eat. Option the second, I using my phenomenal cosmic power, convert that negative karma into boons for your next life in a world of your choosing. A side benefit I get entertainment and you get the chance to end a second world. I'll give you some time to converse."
---The Artist's POV---
"I say we take it." Of course he does, he basically demanded a dnd campaign from dryad about exactly this. Speaking of, she seems to be staring somewhere far off looking at colours that I can't seem to see. Sighing, I turn to the overactive puppy in orb form. 

"You do recall he is The Devil right? No guarantee anything he's saying is real. Being eaten may actually be preferable to whatever he has planned." Of course, I don't actually believe this, how could I, I helped him convince dryad into planning that campaign, still it's easier if I pretend to disagree if only to prompt a debate about it. Who knows, maybe a third being will appear and kill The Devil. 
I'll pretend I didn't just hear It snort. 
"It is." This comes from dryad who seems to be focused on us now.
"What?"
"It is real."
"How could you possibly know that?"
"̶͖̔T̶͔̾h̸͇͑e̸̬̐̎ ̶̨̓͜͝c̸͇͐̉ō̴̡̤l̷̼̐ͅo̴̡͈̎͂ȕ̶͚r̵̙̣̍͘s̴͍̒͠ ̴̮͋t̵̻̄ọ̷̏l̵̀̍ͅd̵͒ͅ ̴̝̼̚m̶̭̳̓e̷͇̐ͅ.̸̱̙̎̈́"̷͙̣̓͝
I look at the puppy "Okay not gonna question that, so two against one right, so we take the deal."
They both give the best nod possible for a disembodied orb in an empty nothing. The puppy nods a lot more enthusiastically. 
I turn to the Devil "I guess we take the deal then."
He gives a brief childish clap in excitement. "Wonderful, it would be such a shame to eat such wonderful potential world enders. Now then let me display the karma that each of you has accrued."
---The Writer's POV---
With a snap 3 glowing grey orbs appear in front of each of us. In front of Marine is an orb only slightly large than himself. In front of Steampunk, an orb that is slightly larger than Marine's and in front of me one slightly larger than Steampunk's. 
"Ah but it must be annoying to be just orbs, and we wouldn't want that to disrupt your decision making." With another snap all 3 of us are in blank humanoid forms like mannequins. "So what will you be having."
Again I hear that voice that is not a voice whisper. w̷̗̰̽i̶̥̖̒͘s̷͆͜h̸̳͍́̿ and that prompts something.

Before either of my friends can speak I cut in because I can see Marine about to ask for a system. "A question first, If each of us were to exchange all of our karma for wishes how many would we each receive."
I can feel both Marine and Steampunk looking at me. 
The devil gives a slight grin. "Based on your contributions to the end of your world you may receive 5 wishes."
Points to Steampunk "4 Wishes."
Points to Marine "3 Wishes."
Before I respond I hear the not a voice whisper V̸̘̑̔o̶̻͚̓͘i̴̿͜d̸͍̝̏ ̸̤͑r̶̰̳͌u̴̲̤̅̀l̸̼̠̓̂e̴͙͊̍s̴̟̽͝
"I'll accept that trade then, I will exchange all of my Karma for 5 wishes according to the void rules."
Steampunk seems to have caught on "I too will exchange all of my Karma for 4 wishes according to the void rules."
Marine looks between us before shrugging. "Fuck it, I will exchange all of my Karma for 3 wishes according to the void rules."
The devil seems taken aback before a huge grin spreads across his face as he looks at me. "I don't know how you know about those rules but this just became a lot more entertaining. So what will you wish for there are limits naturally though they are fairly intuitive no wishing for anything excessive for instance but according to void rules you all receive one 'grand wish' which is just a way of saying you get to negotiate the specifics of the wish."
Steampunk looks at me. "Soul, Mind, Body and 3 for the group."
Realising what he is suggesting I Nod. I look over at Marine and am surprised to see he seems to get it as well. Did death make him smarter?
I look up at the devil "For the first wish, I would like all 3 of us to receive a class-based auxilliary system with no AI, that has the restriction of only granting passive skills but can also enable us to travel the multiverse after completing a specific mission within the world we are in. I would also like for that to be the only type of mission that the system can grant."
The Devil gives a little nod. "Lucky you used the word auxilliary and added that restriction otherwise it would have cost an extra wish but yeah that's reasonable. You will not be able to spread it to anyone else though as it will not have a party system."
Squaring my now plastic shoulders I speak again "For my second wish, I would like all 3 of us to have the option of selecting 3 races or bloodlines each all of which will be fully manifested as though they were our initial race with all of their upsides and none of the downsides. The 3 bloodlines will not fuse together and should in our travel we receive an additional bloodline through some method it will only be able to fuse with one of our 3 bloodlines."
The devil thinks "That will work, although some of the more extreme benefits possible may be reduced as a result."
"That's Fine."
The devil now turns to look at Steampunk as Marine whispers to me. "Why only passive skills."
I whisper back as Steampunk makes his wish. "Easy to train as any action will affect every passive skill attached to it with no need to activate anything. It will make it easier for a smooth brain like yours."
Steampunk speaks clearly and succinctly "I would like all 3 of us to receive a permanent 2X multiplier to all aspects relating to our growth, such that any form of exercise or training will have twice the results."
Steampunk then looks over at Marine "It's only 2X because it will allow us to always be seen as talented in anything we do in any world that we travel to without being seen as an overwhelming prodigy as that can draw the wrong kind of attention."
The Devil claps drawing our attention to the fact that it has split into 3 different bodies all identical. "So from what you discussed earlier you will no all be making 3 wishes, for my own amusement I will be separating you as you make these wishes, but I will also allow you to customise your appearance while separate so you can shock each other. But before that, what world would you like to go to." 
Both Steampunk and I look at Marine to let him pick since we got extra wishes. 
He doesn't even hesitate "A world that directly follows the main canon of Danmachi appearing a year before canon begins in a version without any other transmigrator or reincarnation fuckery."
Even the devil look shocked at how quickly he gave that answer but agrees anyway.

Once upon a time 3 idiots made a fake news story. 4 months later they died in the 1st nuclear strike that would start the end of the world. What will these 3 idiotic dnd playing nerds do now in their next life.

So yeah uhhh, that's the thing, I want a good steampunk apocalypse book, and guess what? Steampunk Apocalypse (mind the capitalization, it's an actual webnovel, read it, not a suggestion or something, DO IT) got dropped, don't know what happened, don't know why, it's been like two years, fuck you snoozy I love you WHY DID YOU LEAVE ME anyway... what was I saying? Uh right, disclaimer, uuuh this shit is gonna be vulgar, badly written and coff coff "inspired" from Steampunk Apocalypse cause I don't know how to create new things, and yeah, you can't say shit about me having bad grammar cause
 1) I DISCLAIMED so yeah

2) Guess what? Not my first language, I'm Italian, actually Ukrainian, actually Russian, and I studied French at school, using Spanish books, so fuck you

3) and last but not least, I'm in a fucking asylum right now, or how they like to call it, a PsYchIAtRic hOsPItaL or something, so yeah, can't blame a psycho for bad grammar I guess... have fun :)

IN AN APOCALYPTIC WORLD WHERE EVEN SAND CAN EAT YOU, OUR BRAVE HERO JOHNN- I mean, Edward, Johnny is the other guy, anyway, our brav-actually no he's not brave... not even a hero he's just a bitch... ok let's start over. Uhm uhm
In an apocalyptic world, where even sand can eat you, in a small town we can find a little guy that eats random carcasses, will he survive? probably not, but just in case, what road will he take? will he rescue the princess, or rape her? maybe even enslave her, will he save the legendary kingdom or conquer it and make a touristic place out of it for shit and jiggles? this and more in RUUUST ABOOMINATIOOOON!™
____________________________________________

Ok, let's stop with the bullshittery and start with the true synopsis, we're in a post apocalyptic world, most technology is lost, (you'll know how if you continue reading... eventually), the planet has no name for it was lost during the various wars, more or less you can be whatever you want, male, female, lakitu, pick your poison, and you can fuck whatever you want, you know, people can't judge if you have super powers that can obliterate half planet, that's what happened, some sicko that likes to fuck cacti becomes god? well, let's extend that LGBTQ+ list once more i guess. Apart from that, I don't wanna ruin the fun, so, for more lore, keep reading :)

At the border of the wilderness plain.
Sugar Ruins City.
In a wide and bright dome-shaped classroom.
"Student Gurney, what do you think is the most important thing for a mage?"
On the podium of the large domed classroom currently holding a supernatural lecture, the female lecturer Hillary Potter, a tall and proud figure with pale skin and curly blond hair, called out Gurney and asked.
Sixteen-year-old Gurney Lawrence, who had short black hair, black pupils, and was wearing a black turtleneck shirt, stood up and answered in a calm, composed manner, "I think that a mage needs to learn to be tanky. Only then can he hold his ground and be able to unleash his spells properly."
Once he had said that, the fifty Apprentice Mage students in the classroom went into a daze for a moment before someone erupted with chuckles.
Followed by someone's laughter, and finally, everyone's uncontrollable and hysterical laughter.
The entire classroom was filled with laughter.
Senior Mage Hillary Potter was also unable to hold back as she laughed along.
It was nothing but common sense; as a magic-focused Transcendent, the most important thing was to be proficient in all of the powerful spells that you knew, as well as all sorts of supernatural knowledge.
As for the idea that this student Gurney thought of — for mages to be tanky — it was way too absurd.
"Can you describe your viewpoint concisely?" Hillary Potter did not rebuke Gurney's words.
Because these students of Sugar Ruins City Academy were still young boys and girls who had yet to step into the adult world.
When they truly experienced the "blood" and "terror" of this mysterious supernatural world, they would give up on those "immature" ideas.
They would walk on the path of a mage that countless pioneering elites and genius Transcendents had created before them.
Facing his classmates' mockery, Gurney showed no changes in his expression. He did not feel ashamed because of their response; he was simply calm and composed.
After a short silence, he continued to explain, "As we all know, mages have very powerful long-range offensive methods and the extremely high power output capable of targeting a large area. These are traits that other supernatural classes cannot match."
"But in terms of defense against physical and magic attacks, we are relatively weaker, or rather, our bodies are as thin as paper. We get torn apart instantly with just one hit.
"The result is that many powerful and outstanding supernatural mages die in the hands of skilled assassins. Sneak attackers with peculiar or unique abilities might also get into close range and kill the mage in an extremely unfair manner.
"From what I know, in the history of Oasia North Continent, there had been several incidents where high-ranking Spellcasters were sneak-attacked and had their defenses broken through, causing their bodies to be torn to shreds. This was what resulted in the Black Crane incident, which led several important events to go down an unpredictable path.
"If a mage is willing to spend time and effort to train their body, to allow their body to gain greater endurance against attacks, they would still be able to survive in complex situations even if they lost their shield. They will also then be able to counterattack their enemies."
"A good viewpoint." Hillary Potter nodded slightly. "But the problem is, mages are weak in physical strength and defense, to begin with.
"Don't you think that spending that time and effort on researching spell knowledge would have far greater efficiency than raising your endurance?
"Furthermore, as your supernatural knowledge becomes deeper, you will be able to explore the Ancient Ruins, the Fog Wilderness Plain, as well as board the recently popular Steampunk Steel Ship. You will be able to survive these sea explorations and deserted island excavations, gaining more supernatural resources for yourself.
"With enough resources, you will become an even stronger mage. You will not have to worry about your own defense and vitality, instead of ending up as a weaker mage that has some sort of defensive capability."
Hillary Potter easily rebuked Gurney's words.
Next, she waved her hand to indicate that he should sit down; she did not give him a chance to argue.
As for Gurney, he was not like other teenagers who would be anxious to defend and explain their view to the lecturer either.
He sat down calmly with a tranquil expression.
It was as if the discussion earlier could not raise any emotions in his heart.
I get the logic, but as a fragile mage, survival is still the most important. Wanting to pursue greater firepower but not survivability, this sort of extreme path is not safe! Gurney who had sat down sighed internally.
There was also a reason why Gurney Lawrence pointed out that "mages should be tanky" and "stability is key".
Mainly because he was a transmigrator, one who had a careful nature from birth.
Half a year ago, on a stormy night.
In Summoner's Canyon, Gurney's tanky-mage character, Wanderer, beat the opponent's fragile Mage with a 9 to 0 score.
During his excitement, Gurney knocked over a bottle and caused a short circuit. He was electrocuted. But after that shock, he received another: he had transmigrated to an alternate world.
It was a mysterious steampunk world.
When he first arrived, Gurney felt fear, uneasiness, and a sense of loss. However, after a while, Gurney started to feel excited that he was an orphan[1] here; it was a good sign.
After half a year.
Gurney was finally able to accept and had adapted to his new identity — he was an adopted orphan with a decent talent as a mage.
After learning about this world's terror and danger while knowing that he was a fragile mage, Gurney, who was a careful person, naturally chose to walk on the path of the tanky mage, which suited him best.
Even though his tanky mage theory was rebuked by his lecturer, Gurney did not feel any dejectedness.
The concept of a tanky mage existed in the world of Magecraft; Gurney was not the person who came up with it.
However, in this world, the mainstream path for a mage was to learn spell knowledge to gain control of stronger spells. The idea of a tanky mage was too unorthodox.
It was impossible for him to try and change the ideal of supreme spellcasting that the students in the class held with just some words.
But for Gurney, the tankiness (or rather, the lack of) of other people was their own problem.
Gurney himself was careful to the limit. Naturally.
In this supernatural steampunk world, the reason why Gurney wanted to walk the path of a tanky mage was, first of all, that he had a cautious nature and loved the survivability of a strong body.
The second reason was that the idea of a tanky mage was completely feasible in his situation…
On the podium.
Hillary Potter was teaching the Apprentice Mages about various techniques and rules, among which were stories of explorations in the Steam Ruins.
Many students were listening attentively to her words.
And Gurney, who already had more avenues to this information compared to other people, knew even more supernatural information than that.
The details regarding the various mysterious ruin explorations that Gurney knew were far bloodier and crueler than what Hillary Potter was describing.
Thus, he lacked interest in the lecturer's words.
His gaze went toward the hazy window. The first thing that he focused on was the unique style of Sugar Ruins City, its color and appearance heavily resembling Byzantine architecture.
The style of this city's architecture was only similar to the Byzantine era. For the finer details, the supernatural steampunk style covered the city with beautiful mechanical lines and curves.
Large and small houses, along with high-rises and bungalows, extended to the outskirts like scales on a body.
Next, looking further, large steel-framed steampunk-styled steam factories, with their huge steel chimneys spewing dense black smoke, occupied the periphery of Sugar Ruins City.
Looking even further, one could see the supernatural steam trains on the outskirts of the city.
At this moment, a steam train was emitting a loud noise as it burned the newly excavated black iron ores and gradually traveled far away.
This was the world that Gurney was in — the Supernatural Steampunk World.
It was the steampunk era that had the supernatural steam engine as the heart, the huge steel frames as the skeleton, and the supernatural knowledge of the mystical as the flesh and blood — all progressing towards prosperity and breaking through hurdles to discover the unknown territories of the world.
Thankfully, Gurney who had transmigrated to this mysterious world was not alone: a very powerful "Passive Farming System" had come along with him.
The location of this Sugar Ruins City that Gurney resided in was the intersection point of this world's steampunk civilization and the mysterious supernatural wilderness; it was the "City of Riches" that was filled with both danger and opportunities.
As for the currently weak Gurney, he was still carefully living in this dangerous city by the fringe, quietly farming away passively.
[0] Tank - someone who takes the hits/damage for a team; a meatshield.
[1] Orphan - because MCs often transmigrated to characters with dead or missing parents.


While a certain young man hides in a certain Ruins City, wanting to become a tanky mage through passive farming.
Mages should focus on learning more spells and magic? There is no time to invest in body strengthening? Mages are defenseless when they run out of mana? None of these are a problem for Gurney and his Passive Farming System. Through the system, Gurney trains both his body and mind at the same time, he goes beyond the limits and logic of an ordinary mage. This is a mage who casts spells while tanking hits, his recovery speed surpasses even warriors and knights. This is the journey of a vigilant and careful mage who grows tankier and tankier.
…
With the rising waves of darkness, the steampunk steel ship sets sail on a journey and adventure.
Whales sink to the depths of the sea, sirens sing with beautiful voices, calling out to the Transcendent sailors who hunt for mermaids.
The mysterious Time Hunters who obey the ancient rules search for their prey.
He who bears the title of “Hero” carries the burden of fate as he steps on the road to write a new page of history.
Ancient “Sealed Ones” rush to break out of their imprisonment, wanting to create and release new “Supernatural Memetics”.
The combination of steam technology and supernatural powers bring forth the era of “Transcendent Genetic Warriors”.
Infant dragons who have just hatched watch as the Dragon Slayer digs out their mother’s heart from her body.
Calamity level lifeforms sharpen their blades, stepping into the stage of this extraordinary era.
The tides of the era surge and swirl, bringing along the mysterious fog of darkness…
The indescribable existence nurtures and grows…
Along with the stare of the Abyss…
…
Welcome to the Supernatural Steampunk Era!

Andy

The story of a young snake and his ant friend have to save a female snake from an evil and spoiled kid in order to show he’s a hero who fears no one and should have love

Shinichi stayed over again, even though that meant that he left so early that Danika considered it to be the dead of night. She laid awake for a little while after he left and considered the problem of comfortable sleeping arrangements for two.

Her apartment simply wasn't big enough, she decided finally.

--

Something had gone wrong with the last update to the system. The empire overflowed the space available, it was far more severe than even when the child of the traveling merchant had occupied a large portion of it. The celestial servants were not reacting, and it looked like the world was going to end in about five minutes. Sooner if the players began connecting.

The Jade Emperor examined the available options, followed the priorities given to the gods long ago, and began to remove the areas that had no player location registered to them.

--

Danika logged in for the morning meeting, feeling a little surprised that she wasn't as tired as she expected. The meeting was almost entirely devoted to laying out the foundation for storyline frames that would encourage the dwarves to develop along recognizably "steampunk" lines.

It seemed almost counter intuitive to Danika, but cementing the dwarven monarchies looked like it would become one of the key points. It was the first time that she was directly involved in a major "import" of story data. Devon Yu opened up web access to literary libraries, and the department began searching for "appropriate" stories.

Although those stories wouldn't be released into the game's libraries until they had gone through several layers of approval, Danika thought about how the Jade Emperor had claimed to have access to the celestial workspaces, and wondered if he could read everything before it was approved for inclusion.

When she retreated to her own workspace, she called up an instance of him and asked.

"Yes, I can access what each celestial servant is working on," the Jade Emperor agreed calmly.

Danika hesitated over whether or not to send an inquiry to Lin Hao. It seemed like a breach of the careful isolation that had been maintained between the game data and the open world. She had just about decided that surely Lin Hao was aware, and that perhaps the Emperor himself was part of the protective barrier, when the Jade Emperor asked her something.

"What?" Danika asked. It had sounded like he'd just asked what steampunk really was.

"What is the intent of the additions to the empire that are currently being constructed? The definition of steampunk does not seem to be related to the words that form it," the Emperor asked.

"Um, well, that's kind of true and kind of not. The steam comes from the most common type of engine available to power various machines in the era, and the punk is kind of," Danika stumbled over the word for a moment, and then she said, "rebellious. Not the kind of rebellion that creates wars, so much as a social one. A distinct clothing fashion worn by people who are supporting mechanical innovations, exploration of the world, and ummm…" she trailed off.

"A rebellion lead by the monarchy?" the Emperor asked with a puzzled expression.

Danika suddenly agreed with more enthusiasm, "Yes! It is kind of celebrating a time in history when some great leaders rebelled against 'how things have always been done' and invested large portions of their country's resources into innovations and improvements. They eventually changed everything from how sewage was handled, to common modes of transportation and communication, and the way goods were manufactured."

"This was an actual time in history and not just something from the legends of your world?" the Jade Emperor asked after a long moment.

"Well, kind of, it has become more of a legendary time that has many stories inspired by it that have nothing to do with actual history," Danika replied seriously.

"I understand," the Jade Emperor said calmly.

"I thought it suited the dwarves since they are already struggling to change," Danika added.

The Emperor shook his head and corrected her with amusement, "No, they have been struggling to avoid changing. They have been trying to return to 'the way things have always been done', so this endeavor to inspire the leaders to invest in innovation and improvement will truly be a revolution. It will be difficult to prevent the wars from erupting again, but it is indeed appropriate to their situation."

Danika gazed at him, aghast at the idea that trying to impose steampunk theming on a race was going to drive them back to war. But the traveling merchant was always very accurate, and she couldn't dismiss his warning, even if he was now wearing the emperor's clothes.

She stopped and sent messages to both Devon Yu and Lin Hao.

--

"She's apparently been using the new Emperor as a servant ever since he became available," Devon Yu informed Lin Hao with a chuckle.

"She always has," Lin Hao replied calmly. "She calls up an incarnation of The Traveling Merchant whenever she has questions about the game that her assistant can't answer well. Her assistant is developing an unusually large library too though. I don't know if it's because she began as a player or just the way she thinks."

"What do you think? Is the resumption of the dwarven wars a reason to scrap the idea and go back to the gnomes?" Devon Yu asked.

Lin Hao eyed the older man. "That smug expression says that you already have your own answer, so why are you asking me?"

Devon Yu's eyes lit up as he admitted, "I can think of a million fun quests involving espionage, resource accumulation, and automation. Stuff that has never really fit into the fantasy world we created."

Lin Hao shrugged. "He says it would be difficult to prevent the wars, not impossible." He spun his chair in his habitual fashion, even though it was a prop that didn't entirely suit the VR environment of his workspace. His toe gently touched the marble floor and brought him to a halt facing a screen that showed the inner courtyard of the Jade Palace. "Let's put the Emperor to work."

"You know, I think this is the first time I've ever liked the results of an advertising ploy," Devon Yu admitted with a chuckle.

"Liar," Lin Hao replied with amusement, "you love this game."

After a great deal of preparation, Danika begins her new digital dragon's life in a very small way.

They say the "Living Jade Empire" creates individualized quests. They say it can read your mind. They say you can find your heart's desire. They say that there's never been a game like it, and they're right but… they're also wrong.

The game is a data mine, built to retell the old tales that humans have been telling each other since language was invented. It doesn't read your mind, but it reads your search history, your favorites, and your blogs. The "Living Jade Empire" is literally crafted from fables, legends, fantasies, and maybe just a bit of stardust.

But in the end, will the game be able to figure out what Danika wants most? Will the desires of other players take priority? Or, will playing it change her, until she desires what it can give her?

A journey is always made up of many small steps, and this game has still only just begun.

And the carnival almost at the end for The Circus team. Brooms are flying. The dwells hat much more The Crock a professional organizer on The Circus.
