Lumos Maxima

The Lone Descent

“I am the end.” ________________________________ "S, why can't you teach me like a regular person? I need a teacher, I can't keep depending on Gilgamesh. I don't have a specific weapon either, and I need to fight." Adam stared at his hands, almost laughing at the sight. 'His hands' were mechanical now, filled with nuts and bolts. [YOUR INTELLIGENCE IS TOO LOW] That was an insult, but Adam didn't take it to heart. His intelligence was lower than most, and he needed to raise it, and fast. "Tell me, how do I raise my intelligence? I need something, anything," Adam pleaded. S took on humanoid form, but it wasn't a form he recognized. It was the form of an old man with a walking cane, and a back bent almost halfway. "How does this help me?" Adam asked, brimming with barely concealed rage. He couldn't let the others get ahead of him. He needed to contribute too. "Patience, you lack it. You fight with a vengeance, instead of fighting with a purpose. What do you want to protect? And why?" "Myself and The Renegades," Adam answered, shocked at how easily the answer came to him. "A barely passable answer, but I'll take it for now. Protect yourself for ten minutes, and I'll consider teaching you," S said and Adam swallowed. "Protect myself from what?" He asked. S had a weird sense of humor and he was starting to realize. [SIMULATING: A WILD BEAR] ________________________________ In a far-off future in an alternate timeline, there was a world called Lumos. In this world, magic was as common as breathing. And the more powerful ones had a system called Sigils. But something changed in the year 2500. Magic finally had a rival: Technology. Things were meant to be better for the citizens of Lumos. However, some humans who lived in that world weren’t so lucky. Adam Wayfarer was one of those people. Without a thing to show for his years on Lumos, he lived in the most rundown part of the city—where dreams die. No parents, no relatives, no money. Adam Wayfarer took a shady deal to make a little bit more money. What happens when the deal goes wrong, and Adam is left to die, abandoned in a world he doesn’t recognize? Will he survive, or give up finally? In a world where magic clashes with technology, the world upturns itself. State against state, country against country, continent against continent. The corruption seeps into the fabric of the world, dyeing it red. Even the gods are not left out. Who’s left standing at the end? ____________ Here’s my discord: https://discord.gg/gvPWA7Yx

ANOTHER WORLDZ

Chapter 1: The Unexpected Journey It was a normal day for Jane, until she stumbled upon an ancient book in her local library. The book had a title that she couldn't make out, written in a language that she had never seen before. As she opened the book, a bright light emanated from its pages, and before she knew it, she was sucked into a vortex. When Jane opened her eyes, she found herself in a strange and unfamiliar world. The sky was purple, and the sun was a deep red. The air was filled with an unfamiliar scent, and she could hear strange creatures calling out in the distance. As Jane explored her new surroundings, she discovered that she had somehow traveled to a parallel world, one that was vastly different from her own. The trees were tall and thin, with leaves that glowed in the dark, and the ground was made of a shimmering, iridescent substance. Chapter 2: Making Friends As Jane explored her new world, she encountered a group of friendly creatures who called themselves the "Lumos". They had small, furry bodies and big, shiny eyes that glowed in the dark. The Lumos were fascinated by Jane, and they eagerly showed her around their world. Over time, Jane grew close to the Lumos and learned more about their culture and way of life. She discovered that they were a peaceful people who valued friendship and community above all else. They showed her how to hunt and gather food, and how to navigate the strange and treacherous terrain of their world. Chapter 3: The Dark Forces As Jane settled into her new life with the Lumos, she began to notice that not all was well in their world. There were rumors of dark forces at work, evil creatures who were hellbent on destroying everything in their path. At first, Jane dismissed these rumors as mere superstition. But as she spent more time with the Lumos, she began to realize that there was something sinister lurking in the shadows. She heard strange whispers in the night and caught glimpses of twisted, nightmarish creatures lurking in the distance. Chapter 4: The Quest Determined to get to the bottom of the mystery, Jane set out on a quest to uncover the truth. She sought out the wisest and most powerful of the Lumos, hoping to gain their assistance in her quest. With their help, Jane discovered that there was indeed a dark force at work, an ancient evil that had been unleashed upon the world. The only way to defeat it was to embark on a perilous journey to the heart of its lair, a journey that would require all of Jane's courage and strength. Chapter 5: The Final Battle The journey was long and treacherous, but Jane persevered, driven by a fierce determination to save her new friends and the world that had become her home. When she finally reached the lair of the dark force, she found herself face to face with the creature itself, a massive, writhing mass of darkness and malevolence. With her new Lumos friends by her side, Jane engaged in a battle that would determine the fate of their world. For hours they fought, with all their might, until finally, the creature was defeated. As the darkness receded, Jane knew that her quest had been successful, and that she had saved a world that had become her own. Chapter 6: The Return As Jane prepared to return to her own world, she knew that she would miss the Lumos and the strange and magical world that she had come to love. But she also knew that she would carry the memories of her adventures with her forever, and that she had been forever changed by her journey. As she closed her eyes and.....

The Empress Wants To Choose Her Own Emperor

Sianna Marie has everything but luck. She who was the first daughter in Marquis Nesia's household, was somehow not loved by anyone in her family. Growing up without real affection made her crave love more than anything. When Sianna Marie finally met the graceful and lovely Crown Prince, who often whispered fascinating words in her ear, her heart melted and her naivety soared. Thinking that this is true Love, she follows the Crown Prince to the imperial palace as his wife. When the Crown Prince ascended to the imperial throne as Emperor, she was likewise appointed as Empress. The relationship between the two was so decent and steady, until finally the birth of their first child arrived, and everything started to change since then. Sianna Marie has suddenly locked away in her cold palace, and every time, she would be put in a big golden cage where the Emperor would come to visit to gaze at her, watching with disdain how she moved uncomfortably every time, being given only a sheet of red silk to cover her body. Her dignity had been degraded, and she still had to be separated from her own child. Worse yet, by threatening that he would do something bad to their child, the Emperor forced Sianna Marie to use her ingenuity to concoct a misleading conspiracy from behind the bars of her golden cage. And Sianna Marie did. In the end, when the Emperor no longer needed her, she was given a vial of poison to end her own life. Luckily, she still managed to hug her son one last time after being separated for so many years. Died with regret, Empress Sianna Marie was allowed to live again in her teenage body. The second she opened her eyes once again, she was determined to take Kaira Kaizen Basilius, the Crown Prince, to embark on hell with her. Amid a conspiracy by Sianna Marie to overthrow the Crown Prince, she meets Ashlan Lune, a young general from Maxima Naval Base, who is the nephew of the Emperor. Sianna Marie judged that this man was suitable to serve as a substitute for that damn Crown Prince. But sadly, the man didn't think so. Instead of being impressed by Sianna Marie's efforts, he accuses her of being a rebel. And for a time, the two of them bit the dust. Sianna Marie only wanted to make a man who had high values of justice become the next Emperor. On the other hand, Ashlan Lune just wants a wife that he can mess with all the time. Ashlan Lune: What is your real goal? Sianna Marie: Married a poor scholar and had 13 children. (Lie) Ashlan Lune: ... What about someone like... The real Emperor-to-be? Sianna Marie: Not accepted! I will only accept a poor man who doesn't even have money to his name! Ashlan Lune: (Starts undressing) What a coincidence, I'm so poor that I don't have a single thread for my clothes. Sianna Marie: Anyone, please help me!
