Dinner Contest

At the entrance of the East Residential Area of Chuhua University, Gatekeeper Uncle received a phone call and, after pulling open the window, bellowed energetically towards the small grove not far away, "Heitan, your mom says it’s time to come home for dinner!" Whoosh— A black cat shot out from the dense underbrush on the other side of the small grove and sprinted towards a certain building, disappearing into the stairwell in the blink of an eye. Following it, one after another, cat heads popped up from beyond the underbrush. It was mealtime, and each cat was heading back to its own home, return to its own family's side... Some say cats are the only creatures in the world where the whole species is mad – what do you think? —————— The mind of a twenty-years-old man trapped in the body of the cat, challenges and adventures were just getting started!

When a Filipino Brings a Gundam to a Sword Fight > "Oh great, another summoner. Just what we need—more useless adventurers." > > *Famous last words from Sir Knight-Who-Got-His-Butt-Kicked* Look, getting isekai'd is already weird enough, but being a Filipino summoner in a fantasy world? That's like bringing *balut* to a fancy French dinner party – completely unexpected and guaranteed to raise some eyebrows. Picture this: There I was, contemplating whether to have *sisig* or *adobo* for dinner, when suddenly – **POOF!** – I got yeet'd into Medieval Times™ faster than my mom could throw her legendary tsinelas. And what did the universe decide to gift me with? The supposedly "weakest" class: *a summoner*. But here's where it gets *interesting*. These fantasy folks thought I'd be pulling rabbits out of hats or summoning cute forest creatures. **Boy, were they in for a surprise!** Because while they were expecting wooden sticks and basic swords, I was busy figuring out if I could summon: * My mom's battle-tested tsinelas (with +20 critical hit, mind you) * A fully-loaded M16 *Armor you say? " How about a mask raider suit! Or iron man armor!(credit to marvel ) * And oh yeah, *casual flex*, **AN ENTIRE FREAKING GUNDAM** Let me tell you something funny about being the "weak" summoner – when you can call forth weapons that would make Michael Bay weep tears of explosive joy, suddenly nobody's laughing at your class choice anymore. Welcome to my story of how a Pinoy turned the summoner class from zero to hero, one ridiculous weapon at a time.

The blood trickling down my chest was warm, a stark contrast to the icy grip of fear that tightened around my heart. But fear was a luxury I could no longer afford. " Oh...if you think I am afraid of death, then let me tell you, that fear of mine is long gone!" I declared, my voice echoing against the silence. "Let's play a game. A final contest of wills." His eyes gleamed with amusement. "A game? And what manner of game do you propose, little warrior?" "A death game," I replied, my voice unwavering. "A contest where the stakes are not merely life or death, but the very essence of our souls."

[Webnovel Rising Star ll Contest] What will you do if you are the younger brother of the number one genius under the heavens? What will you do if you know whatever you do, it will barely be a breeze before the raging flood of your brother's actions? Will you envy him, will you hate him, or will you support him and become a side character of an ever changing dangerous world? This is the situation Eugene found himself at, a boy filled with envy and jealousy toward his brother but also can't help to love him with all his heart. Unfortunately, the world never gave them time to process their complex emotions as things change everyday that seek to not just kill them but destroy their very homeland. This is a world that is barely functioning due to the illusion of hope! The more ignorant you are, the more free you are but power comes with responsibility. Knowledge comes with the dangerous realization that the future is bleak and despair is around the corner. Eugene found himself born in a world that ‘Awakened’ as they called it, humans devolved from Apex Predators centuries ago and are barely cattle for the ever evolving beasts and monsters. Two things saved the humans from extinction, and it wasn't their knowledge or weaponry; they are all useless against intelligent beasts that can do better. What saved them was some benevolent beasts that took them as servants, slaves and some as cattle for rearing. The second thing that saved them was the appearance of Gateway that led to various realms in unknown dimensions that aids them to make a pact with willing beasts. They finally gained strength and power and huddled around Gateways and built Settlements. Eugene found himself in a race against time as he dived into an unknown dimension, filled with mystery and danger that might have the answers everyone desire.

Alongside other chosen races, they must conquer a system of ten realms, each deadlier than the last, filled with unfathomable horrors and merciless trials.

The room was quiet, except for the faint sound of the ceiling fan whirring above us. Liya's phone screen dimmed, casting the room into near darkness. Sana had already fallen asleep, her soft breathing rhythmic and steady. I turned onto my side, hugging my blanket closer. The excitement of the night still lingered in my chest, but so did something else, a strange unease. It wasn't like I didn't trust my friend's instincts, but I couldn't understand why they felt something was off about Arun. He had been nothing but kind tonight. The way he and his friends treated us, guiding us around the party, buying us dinner, it didn't seem like the actions of someone untrustworthy. And yet… Why did I feel this lingering heaviness in my chest?

WSA 25 ENTRY ******** The world I knew was ordinary or at least bearable—until it wasn’t. I was just another corporate drone, drowning in a dead-end job I hated, stuck in a life that felt like it would never change. That is, until the mages decided to pick me. Every ten years, the mages choose ten people from across the faction—ordinary people like me—and thrust them into the Beast Games, a sadistic contest where only the strongest survive. The rules are simple: tame the fiercest creatures that world has to offer, fight to the death, and outlast every other contestant. Fail, and you die. Succeed, and you get to return home. But nothing there was as simple as it seemed. Thrown into a land where beasts rip through flesh without hesitation, and other contestants see me as nothing more than prey, I’m forced to rely on a mysterious system that offers me quests and tasks to survive. This world doesn’t play by any rules, least of all the ones we know. I will survive and I will find the ones who made this game and when I find them, I’ll show them what happens when you mess with someone who has nothing left to lose.

Alexander Aphelion was a legendary gamer, once cracking the top 100 in Eryndralis, the world's most popular MMORPG. Alexander possessed unrivaled dungeon-diving skills and large brilliance in planning and he thrived on overcoming the game's most challenging obstacles. During a quiet dinner, his life takes an unexpected turn; he is suddenly transported to Eryndralis, the world he once controlled. Alexander, reborn as a demon, has a powerful but unfamiliar body and abilities exceeding his former capabilities in the game. He was surprised to also receive one of the rare and coveted Dungeon Master roles, a title signifying large power and responsibility. His meaningful role as Dungeon Master bestows upon him wide-ranging abilities to carefully design dungeons, to command monsters and the large power to change the world. Great power brings great danger, a fact Alexander soon understood when he realized Eryndralis was not a game, but a living world with high stakes, coupled with deadly consequences. Alexander digs deeply into this detailed world. He increasingly questions his deeply important role: Is he the hero, or is he doomed to become the villain he once opposed? In Dungeon Aphelion, survival and identity are central themes, blurring the line between player and pawn; the stakes are life or death and only world conquest offers escape.
