I have died 3,261 times since I woke up as a Lich in a dungeon. I don't really remember anything or understand why I'm here - but one thing is for certain: I have to escape. I cannot, CAN-NOT just keep letting these adventurers kill me. I'm sick of it, I'll go mad! I just want to live a quiet life in a cold dark forest somewhere... If only I could get past that invisible wall at the dungeon entrance! UGH! Surely, this is a curse? For some reason, I have the ability to remember after every death - the other undead here are killed and don't remember a single thing after they resurrect. I have to do something, something has to change. Join Vlad the NPC lich, as he escapes a dungeon in a computer game world full of adventurers - the only sentient NPC monster.

"What the.. where am I?" "ON YOUR FEET SOLDIER! I need that automated anti-aircraft gun repaired NOW!" "Wha? Soldier?" "MOVE!" another soldier screamed in his face as he continued to blast away at what appeared to be giant moths. Finally, Dan snapped out of it.

Slay Online, a violent life-like fantasy MMORPG. Originally created by a rogue scientist, it was an illegal game. No governments could find the game servers to shut it down - but soon enough, it became an underground sensation. Everyone was playing it in secret. Eventually, Slay Online was legalised, and people found you could send your consciousness, your own soul, into the game - leaving your body behind. Kai was one of these people, a terminally ill patient, suffering from an incurable disease. He was a nobody, an orphan dying in a hospital with no one who cared about him. The doctors wanted his body for research, so they decided to send him into the game. So far, Kai's life was one of suffering. It was an endless cycle of running from his bullies and getting beaten up; pushed down at every turn. And his suffering would not end. Before Kai could send his soul in, an in-game countdown started. No one knew what would happen when the countdown ended, and the doctors temporarily weren't allowed to send him into the game; all he could do was wait as he squirmed from the pain in his body, lying in the hospitals VR capsule. Will he let his new life beat him down again? Will he become another punching bag? Join Kai as he starts his new life in Slay Online. **** Art by gibyjoesph1990@gmail.com

Pfft, so what if they can cast spells? I'm a mixed martial arts master. Every single time, these idiots thing they can beat me by simply tossing a rock spell or trying to blow me to pieces with fireballs. It's kind of hilarious to see their faces twist in fear when I get close enough. They know nothing about fighting; relying on spells has made them weak... their bodies are all as thin as twigs. Well, I guess I can't talk... for now, mine is quite skinny too. This new body sucks - but that's something I'll fix... wait, I have a system? Well whatever, maybe it will be useful. Just like in the last world, I will rise to the top once more. These nerds with their shitty magic systems don't stand a chance. They will all come to know and fear my name: Roylan. ***Artwork is not mine, please msg me if you want it removed. Artwork is by Radiance Li. https://www.artstation.com/artwork/LOX55
