It was said that when the creator was finished creating this universe, it wasn't perfect. filled with impurities and unbalanced powers, the universe was moving on the path of self-destruction, so to slow down the destruction, the creator decided to gather a large portion of the impurities and create a new race from it; hence, the dwarfs were born. Born with crippled bodies, they were rejected by mana, but things changed when the dwarfen hero appeared, wielding an unknown power. He shared his secrets and subdued the unbalanced powers that the creator ignored. The universe became stable, and that was the start of a new era called the era of creation. The dwarfs became the great dwarfs ruling this era. A few centuries passed, and something unexpected happened.

Closing the book, my eyes once again fell on its title. "The myth of creation." The context of this book was hard to believe, but somehow I found myself questioning its truth time and time again. I have already read it five times. Knock—Knock— The sound of knocking brought me back to reality. "Come in" "Young master the preparations are complete, the members have gathered, and they are waiting for you to come out." "I will be there in a minute." "Then I will excuse myself." Stella left the room, and my attention returned to the book. After reading it for the sixth time, I finally found a clue. My lips curled upward, and taking a few steps, I reached the nearest window and threw the book outward. satisfaction. that's what I felt. Turning around, I left the room, muttering in a barely audible voice. Cult creation {✓} check  Now it's time for the unknown to appear and burn this damn planet!!!

Once Human, Now a Parasite β

Arthur Bilgart was a successful and vastly wealthy businessman on Earth. However, he was kidnapped and tortured by his wife, Claudia, who was after everything he owned. He was tortured and isolated from the world for no less than a year before miserably dying. But death wasn't the end for he was reincarnated into a parasite in a foreign world. Volume 1: The Blood Purge (Chp 1 to 29) Volume 2 : The Mysterious Bottle (Chp 30 to 43) Volume 3 : The Bloated Murderer (Chp 44 to 65) Volume 4: Ruination (Pt1): Single-Minded Pursuit (Chp 66 to 86) Volume 4 : Ruination (Pt2): Feast of Lies and Sea of Spies (Chp8 to 128) Volume 5 : The Shadow Keep Penitentiary(Pt1): 'Why was the goose sad?'(Chp129 to ?) If you're interested in the premise, I will give some exposition on what to expect. First and foremost, the story, especially at the beginning, can have a slow pace to flesh out the world and characters. The plot will follow the parasite's second life in a new world in which Magic exists. Rather than focusing too much on non-stop and nonsensical fights, there will be a lot of focus on Arthur's psychological issues, his motives and beliefs. His views on the new world and opinions on moral relativism, the ruling aristocracy, the study of historical records and so on... Instead of a direct plot from beginning to end (Such as the generalized 'Defeat the Demon King), this story is more about self-discovery and the unravelling of ancient mysteries and forgotten history. It is about the character development of not only Arthur but other characters and how their actions affect the world. Arthur isn't inherently noble or unconditionally just, but he also isn't purely driven by lunacy or evil-oriented intentions. The MC is neither OP nor pitifully weak. This is not about someone reincarnated into a world just to become an undefeated force that simply kills everyone. There will be chapters dedicated to Lore or the travails of supporting characters. There are relatively detailed maps that I've created myself, which can be found here: The maps contain SPOILERS about regions and locations. https://ibb.co/xDPk4zz https://ibb.co/smKDgds There will be a System, one which isn't overly-complex nor too simplistic. In the beginning, at least, it is more of a visual and numerical representation of the MC's growth as he learns more about his Race and what it is capable of. Without delving into any details, the following are what you will find in this story: Exploring the world; Meeting new people, discovering fascinating cultures, deepening one's understanding of existence's history, delving into Politics. At some points, the story will be dark and quite disturbing. Chapters are between 1500 and 3000 words. One last thing: I'm not a native English-speaker, therefore, my grammar isn't flawless. I try my best to make everything coherent and enjoyable, but I might make a mistake or two along the way. If you notice anything, be sure to let me know and I will fix it. Apologies in advance and I hope you like the story.
