Synopsis

Chronicles of Retha was meant to be a full submersion video game filled with adventure and magic…but it has become a prison.

Kit and her party of misfit players have managed to collect two of the four seals that are required to face Malignus—Retha’s ultimate villain whose defeat may be the only way out of the game. Unfortunately for Kit—who is stuck playing as a defective elf dancer—the quest only grows more difficult.

The remaining seals are hidden in areas of Retha that Kit and her low-leveled party can’t fight through. Even worse, they will need to unite other players and guilds to face Malignus–an unlikely event as riots have spread across the game world.

Unwilling to give up, Kit and her party band together with Solus Miles—one of the best players in the game—and throw everything they have against Malignus.

But is their strength enough, or will Retha be their end?

Kit is back. And she’s still stuck playing her ridiculous elf dancer character.

After leading a group out of the full submersion video game, Chronicles of Retha, Kit knew she couldn’t leave the remaining players to suffer their fate alone. So she returned to the game with the goal to get everyone out.

Solus Miles has always preferred solo playing, but Kit’s return changes everything. He vows to partner with her fully, allowing her to use him as her shield and even her mascot.

There’s just one problem.

Forcing a system wide logout requires the defeat of the end game boss character. A boss who hasn’t ever been beaten before.

When the top guilds are still skeptical Kit turns to those whom others overlook: the non-playable characters controlled by the game mechanics.

But Retha has changed.

Monsters, events, and quests have shifted, complicating her task. The journey across an altered Retha tests even Kit’s veteran knowledge and strains her leadership like never before.

Can she leverage her NPC allies and convince the other players to join her?

The SECOND AGE OF RETHA series features an epic fantasy video game world inspired by Tolkien’s Middle Earth with the adventure and stakes of Sword Art Online and other “stuck in a game” stories. If you love humorous and magical adventures with MMORPG elements download a sample or buy it today!

Natasha the Halve

★ 4.5

Biggest-Kusa-Out-There

Natasha Novak was a fairly known artist from an Earth devastated by pandemics. One day, she was playing an online game and falls off her chair as a moment of luck brightens her otherwise monotonous life, and dies of a stroke due to hitting her head.

Reborn in Galeia, a world of magic, she sets out to explore this brand new planet and maybe find others like her. Join her and her companions as she faces a world with a culture alien to her, meets Gods, and takes part in adventures all over the globe.

Not all is fun and games, however, as she is part of the most powerful species on Galeia, a Halve. Shady organizations that seek to free the world’s inhabitants of the yoke of higher beings want her dead, overpowering instincts leave her unnaturally willing to fight, and worst of all… she spent a million years in Hell before being reborn.

_________
This fiction is 100% girls love. Natasha will have male friends, companions, colleagues, etc. but won't engage in romantic/sexual relationships with them.
Warning!!! This fiction contains brutal depictions of violence, explicit sex, mentions of sexual violence, torture, and child abuse.

Welcome to Retha, the full submersion video game where you can be the hero of your own adventure. Unfortunately for Kit, it only takes one moment to turn the game into a nightmare.

When Chronicles of Retha experiences a software malfunction, Kit—a disenchanted veteran player—is stuck in the game without a way to log off. Even worse, she’s trapped playing as the most defective character possible, an elf dancer that was meant to be a prank.

Thankfully, she receives word that there is a way out. But the only escape route is to defeat the game’s ultimate villain. Kit, in her joke character, must fight her way through some of the worst Retha has to offer. Her only help is a party of low-leveled players just as powerless as she is, and the occasional act of mercy from one of the best players in the game, the taciturn (and aloof) Solus Miles.

Can Kit and her new friends finish the quest, or will Retha be their end?

A Lewd Story

Draky_Vampire

A/N: Newbie author here! I wrote this synopsis in haste so it might change in the future. I have a rough outline of the plot progression, but nothing has been set in stone! PLEASE NOTE: I explore the story as I write!!! I don't claim my story to be good even though I have burned my body, heart, and soul!

SYNOPSIS:
Like waking up from a dream, Ben was transmigrated into a fantasy world; in a cruel forest, which was hell in itself.
But, after fighting death many times, he finally came out of it and found a human town after 6 months. He also got to meet his 'family' of this world.
But something was wrong with his body...
Why was every woman attracted to him? And why their men thanked him even though he cucked them?
Whatever may be the reason, it's good for him, so he doesn't care.
Why would he, when he can just **** almost anyone he likes?

Embark on a lewd journey with Ben...

WARNING: Just as the name suggests, this is a lewd wish-fulfillment novel. It also contains incest. So you have been warned.

Note:
1. English isn't my first language.
2. Don't take this story too seriously.
3. No NTR, no r*pe.
4. Pure wish-fulfillment novel.
5. MC is not Evil.
6. MC is not so smart like those of cultivation novels. Though he isn't dumb.

Deathworld Commando: Reborn

★ 4.4

RangerFrank

What happens when humanity's greatest weapon gets a second chance at life? Commander Kronos wasn't even considered to be a human but rather a weapon to be used for the greater good of his species. He was grown in a tube to be the perfect weapon, so he lacked many emotions/experiences most people take for granted. Upon experiencing some emotions for the first time he was quickly eliminated by humanity and was reborn into a world of swords and sorcery, getting a second lease on life.

Of course, he didn't see it that way at the start and thought he was being fooled. It took a near-death experience and a lot of growing up, but he finally decided to keep his promise to his former comrades and give his new life an honest try.

Embark on the story of the former Commander of Hades Squad as he settles into his new life as the Dark Elf Kaladin Shadowheart.

Arthur_Inverse

What is a city boy to do when he wakes up in a white room with nothing and no one in it? All that greets him is a blue screen flashing with one word. "Welcome"

In this story of wise cracks and wide spread murdering, Drake is forced to face old traumas and find his way in the new world of a merged planet forced by the system. He will find enemies and allies aplenty. Even some he would have never expected.

His decisions will shape the future of his planet and journey in this new wild landscape that the system has brought.

With God and Anime on his side- Oh and some spotty game knowledge- he must forge his own path. But first. He needs to get through this damned tutorial in one piece and figure out how his damned spell works.

---------------------------------------------
OG Cover Art is done by my wonderful friend Caneera you can find her at https://caneera.carrd.co/ for all types of commissions.

This is a story I've decided to write because my endless fantasies of chuunibyou like proportions could not stay in my head any longer. I've just wanted to make a story I can make some cringe jokes in and this is the result. I really do hope people will enjoy it as I really do enjoy writing it, and will keep writing it. If you can catch some of the references I would love to hear it. Love and Peace! Just not in this story. If any of the tags currently don't make sense they are for later down the line so I don't have to add them later.

If you would like to read ahead, you can find my patreon at the end of any of the chapters!

Still slightly janky but here is the discord if you wish to join. https://discord.com/invite/99yRS3SuMJ

I will be publishing this on Amazon under the pen name Arthur Inverse or Richard Fuerle. At least I will as soon as KDP support recognizes I am the author and not trying to steal my own work...

You can also find the story on webnovel if you wish.

You may also shitpost on the sub-reddit if you would like here, https://www.reddit.com/r/Dual_Class/
