Front Page is "YI'ONNAISSE MURLCKQUIM" - "CADET DIMY-69". (Chapter 106→) The world is dangerous, yet, there is beauty in the chaos if you learn how to appreciate it. The "Imperishable", Entities Above Everything Else, understood this undeniable truth eons ago, gifting to the Mortals a few tools to overcome the challenges across their lives. With this, amusing their own boring existences, looking with enthusiasm what new story could unfold, or if the same mistakes would be done once again but by a different person. The First Gift, is "Shards", called "Cards" by some, this otorgue instant rewards when you exchange them in an "Imperishable Monolith". The Second Gift, is the mentioned structure, capable of craft almost anything if you have the recipe, blueprint and the required materials and ingredients, a true aberration depending on who you ask. The Third Gift, is the "Perennence", with a 100 you won't Die if you are slain, you simply would "Respawn" in a "Memory Hall", making you partially Immortal, because as long as you have 1 of Perennence, you wouldn't be really dead, and someone else can "Revive" you by providing the missing resource. However, this comes with a drawback, you become a "Servant" of the person or thing that save your life, at least until you repay the Perennence plus an Interest of 50%. The Fourth Gift, is "The Memory Hall", unfortunately, they had an evil twin, "The Howling Wall", which are created in places that had seen too many "Take Downs" in a short span of time; Differently to the prodigal twin, you must have a minimum of 25 Perennence to be Respawned, otherwise, at best, you become an Immaterial entity, similar to a ghost, if not, a mindless beast or a simple Drone for a Hive Mind is not far fetched. Lastly, The Fifth Gift, is divided in three concepts, "Repercussion", "Traits" and "Work", being the last, one of the most unfair of all the Gifts, as you can't change your Work under any circumstances, which applies even for "The Imperishable". But the Gifts don't come for free, as they attract a series of weird creatures from unknown Invasive Territories, sprouting the so called "Graveyards", "Factories", "Hives", "Nests", "Lairs", "Crops" and "Farms" across the entire world of "Leathemnur". NO CHEATS NO PLOT ARMOR NO VANILLA EASY LIFE DON'T GET FOOLED BY THE START OR THE SLOW PROGRESS A FAIR SHARE OF: ACTION BEAUTIES MYSTERIES A WHOLE LOT OF: SMUT BONDING INDECENCY COMMENT FOR: KINKS DOUBTS SUGGESTIONS Additional Information: I would publish TWO Chapters a Day. English is not my first language, that is why, any mistake I made across the story, feel free to point it out for me to correct it as soon as possible.

It’s a crossover with some game? If you couldn’t tell by reading the title, He’s an Outer God. Lin Ruo/Rudy Flair is his name, Klein’s grandpa in a ring.

I’ve always tried to see the good in everything. Sure, I was born with a frail body that only grew weaker over time, but at least I had loving parents who cared for me—even though I’ve been a burden to them for the past 15 years. Yes, I lived in constant pain, trapped indoors. But at least I had the internet, television, and books—I could explore the world without ever leaving my room. Imagine having my condition in a time before technology. A life spent staring at nothing would have been unbearable. Yes, I struggled to breathe. My body was numb, my vision fading. My parents sat beside me, their tears falling as they held my fragile hand. But at least they would finally be free. They had a new baby—three of them, a happy little family that wouldn’t be weighed down by me. That was wonderful. They could live without worry. Sure, death was terrifying. But no one knows what comes after. At least now, I would finally have my answer. "Goodbye, Mom. Goodbye, Dad. Thank you for being the best parents. I’m sorry I couldn’t be the child you deserved. Please… be happy." . . . Wait. Does death mean I’ve been reborn in another world? What is this place? Is that… a moving mountain?! I should run. My name is Yaw-Yan. Want to know how I built my floating kingdom with just a stick?
