GlaringError here! As I have already mentioned in my author review I am restating it here since I am getting tons of comments about it, that I am more of a reader myself than a writer, I made this novel in an attempt to capture my fantasy world residing in my mind into words.. Writing is new for me.. The premise of my novel is inspired by many great works that I have loved over the years. And some elements I have in my novel that are slightly similar to them but it's just the skeleton of it, the real meat of the plot is entirely my own cooking. Some of the influence that is more noticeable is from The Runesmith (By Kuropon), The King's Avatar (By Butterfly Blue) and Shadow Slave (By Guiltythree). I have immense respect for these legends and I can only hope to follow in their footsteps. To all those who comment just by judging the name, at least give it a chance before letting your opinions be known. Thank you.

Adventure of Zhao

Dear Bosstraatnese, my friends, and those who once lived on Bosstraat, Twenty-five years ago, we navigated the alleys and woods of Hasselt and Diepenbeek with our broken English. Alongside foamy beers, hot wine and waffles, we debated European history, culture, politics, the future, music, and folklore, and created a series of inside jokes that still shine in my memory to this day. Now, with the rapid advancement of new technologies, where neural implants rewrite human cognition and quantum tunneling blurs the world's boundaries, I'm crafting an adventure titled Adventure of Zhao—a vessel that preserves the DNA of our shared cross - cultural wonders. The story is set in Huinan Town, Shanghai, in 2025. It tells the tale of Zhao Ming, an ordinary 48 years old clerk in his zodiac year. At seven o'clock on the eighth day of the first lunar month, while riding his electric bike to work, he suddenly noticed double - vision. Curiously, he discovered that these were glimpses of another world. Unable to resist his curiosity, he entered this parallel realm only to find it occupied by alien creatures even smaller than viruses. Humans were confined to tiny safe zones, at risk of infection with the slightest misstep. Once infected, they could only alleviate symptoms with herbal remedies, but the fate of becoming a puppet was irreversible. Fortunately, he found that the cola he carried could significantly relieve the infection symptoms. Even better, whenever he saw the double - vision again, he could return to his original world. Thus, a miracle doctor emerged in the other world. His blue and red potions saved many lives. He actively established an impregnable stronghold in an abandoned town on the front line (a town in Los Angeles, USA), which became a reliable supply point for exploration teams from diverse ethnic and national backgrounds. Through trading with the exploration teams, he provided many affordable supplies for the civilians in the safe zone, earning universal praise. Unbeknownst to all, cola syrup, AI technology, nuclear power batteries, robots, and other items were quietly delivered to the stronghold, becoming powerful weapons against the alien creatures. The climax of this novel hinges on a fact we prove every day: Friction between cultures doesn't breed chaos but joy—the very energy that fueled our midnight laughs and loud talks in the Common Room in our twenties. Will you let your laughter be forever etched on this speculative tapestry? I'm compiling my memories and adding my imagination—from the Nordic regions to Sicily, Italy—to fuel the narrative core. Let's use time - travel to create an all - powerful version of ourselves, for as my story will demonstrate, the most radical future is built upon a beloved past. With nostalgia for Bosstraat, Spencer P.S. The draft includes a strange creature called the "Toad - mouthed Owl," which can speak in our idioms. When it declares, "Fxxkxx Bxxxx!", be ready to cringe/laugh!

"Chronicles of Wyrtt: The Alchemist's Odyssey"

In a world where goblin tribes are known for their savage and warlike ways, "The Alchemical Misfit: Memoirs of Wyrtt" tells the extraordinary tale of Wyrtt, a goblin who defied his violent culture to embark on a unique journey of self-discovery. Born into the Bloody Fangs tribe, Wyrtt's life takes an unexpected turn when, during a rite of passage, he flees his tribe rather than participate in a violent raid on a human village. Alone in the harsh wilderness, Wyrtt's survival instincts kick in, and he discovers an unusual cult of misfit alchemists and occultists who accept him as one of their own. Wyrtt's insatiable curiosity and intellectual prowess lead him to master multiple languages and delve into the world of alchemy, all while wrestling with his dual nature—a goblin by birth but yearning to embrace the culture of humans. This internal conflict deepens as he joins the enigmatic Society of adventurers, a diverse group with guilds scattered across the world. Eight years of rigorous training with the Society test Wyrtt's mettle and strengthen his bonds with fellow adventurers. His path is marked by challenges that force him to confront his identity and the society's prejudices against goblins. As he grapples with his drug habit—a coping mechanism to bridge his dual identity—the climax of the story sees Wyrtt and his comrades facing a monumental crisis. Throughout the book, a historian narrates Wyrtt's memoirs, providing context and insight into the goblin's life, his struggles, and the broader societal issues at play. Themes of identity, acceptance, and the power of knowledge weave through the narrative. "The Alchemical Misfit: Memoirs of Wyrtt" culminates with Wyrtt's graduation from the Society, symbolizing his transformation from an outcast goblin to a respected alchemist and adventurer. The historian reflects on the significance of Wyrtt's memoirs and their lessons in a world where acceptance and knowledge can transcend boundaries. This book is a tale of resilience, self-discovery, and the enduring power of intellect in a world where appearances can be deceiving. Wyrtt's journey challenges societal norms and highlights the value of individuality and understanding in a diverse and ever-changing world.
