The Player Of Games

Max, an ordinary student, found his world upended when powerful, chaotic, God-like beings descended upon Earth, bestowing grand and bizarre abilities upon humans while compelling them to participate in their perverse games.

In a world turned into a deadly game, Alex Grant, an ordinary high school student, finds himself thrust into an apocalyptic reality where Earth has been selected as Game World N31459. With invaders and monsters descending from the skies, humanity is forced to fight for survival. As Alex navigates through the chaos, he discovers a game-like system in his mind, granting him access to items, abilities, and quests. Using a rare "Blessing Stone," he gains temporary god-like powers, boosting his strength and endurance. Tasked with surviving the first week of the invasion, Alex fights terrifying creatures and encounters other survivors, each struggling to adapt to their new powers and the terrifying monsters attacking their world. Along the way, he earns valuable loot, including rare "Awakening Stones" that promise to unlock even greater power. With his R-level potential, Alex quickly becomes a force to be reckoned with, but the battles only grow more dangerous. The world has become a brutal game of survival, and Alex must use every advantage he gains to protect those around him and unravel the mysteries behind the invasion.

[WSA 2024 Entry] Everyone is playing a regal game. Everyone except Lucia (who probably should). After her father faced accusations of trying to seize the throne from his father and king, he was exiled along with his family. They were no longer royalty, but his wife would not have it. She was friends with the queen of Vershia and used that to her advantage. Her two older daughters were the right age to marry the two princes, and she would make that happen come what may. That became a problem when the oldest daughter was ignored by the crown prince, who formed a friendship with the youngest of the girls. There was still hope; Lucia could become the future queen. But Lucia was not groomed for this role. She did not want to live for the type of marriage she could snag. She did not want to take the man who had been planned for her sister. But that’s the thing with plans, isn’t it? She never planned to fall in love with the man, and there she was: an unwilling participant in the regal games. Would she capture the crown? How would everything affect her relationship with her sister? Was there ever pleasing her mother?

The Night Has Come, and kermesinus moon ascends in the sky. Hoarse whispers flow at the street corners, and brass steam machines spew out bloody mist. Your brain is singing a hymn, eyes are chanting a melody. Skin cracks, and flesh buds swell. Amidst the Mist, the wall of flesh that has devoured thousands of corpses wails endlessly— "Weep not, our players don't bite, they just want to play with you." Annan, the lone strategist, the top player, the savior of the mist-covered continent, the leader of the Thirteen Saints, the friend of the Twelve True Gods, the king of pioneers, "the Just", the Gatekeeper of the Fourth Calamity, the uncrowned deity, advised kindly.

DESTINY GAMES. It has been 85 years since Earth-11 became aligned with Yggdrasil and 73 years since Icon became the first demigod from Earth. Icon, as the first demigod, was privileged to weave the thread of fate for everyone. He was supposed to cut off Yggdrasil and free Earth-11 from the grasps of the other Earths and their god kings. That's why everyone helped him climb the tower of Destiny. But instead of ridding earth of Yggdrasil, he turned the destiny of mankind into seven rings of immortality.  The first ring was for the immortality of power. The second was for the immortality of the knowledge. The third, fourth, fifth, and sixth were for the immortality of the mind, energy, body, and soul. The last ring, the ring of the paragon, was made to rule them all.  Icon kept the ring of the paragon for himself and became a dictator. He ruled with an iron fist for many years. His was a reign of terror. But he was eventually vanquished by the collective effort of the world.  It has been 62 years since then. Icon is no more, but the damage he had done still remains. Earth-11 is still connected to Yggdrasil. The deadly games of the Tower of Destiny still remain, and the fight for the seven rings of immortality still continues.  Kelvin Thorn has just awakened his ability. It came at a good time too since he is running for his life. The ability he awakened saved him, but it came with a cost. He must climb the tower of destiny under the witness of the whole world and accumulate destiny, or he will die.  His situation is not unique. Everyone that awakens, which is mostly everyone, must climb the tower of destiny. It is one of the curses that Icon left behind before he died. But Thorn is different because the seventh ring found him.  The tower of destiny is where everyone granted power by destiny, be they humans, non-humans, or otherworlders, must fight in games of might, skill, and knowledge to gather the power of destiny. They will either die or eventually overcome death. Kelvin will be one of the latest in the line of billions of others in this struggle.

When you see these words, the world-game has already begun. This is no idle pastime. This is [Reality Reboot], the only way to save our world. Every living soul is a player, whether they know it or not, trapped in a broken timeline spiraling towards oblivion. We relive the same catastrophes, the same wars, the same agonizing end, over and over. I am Rhys, and I am the only one who remembers. I possess the singular, agonizing ability to rewind time, to replay this doomed game. Each reset is a fresh wave of pain, the weight of the world crashing down on me anew. I relive the loss of loved ones, the sting of betrayal, the crushing despair of failure, countless times. The others, blissfully unaware, call me eccentric, a prophet of doom, a madman. They don't see the threads of fate I desperately try to reweave. They don't understand the burden I carry. …But it doesn't matter. I know the price of failure. I have seen the end, felt the cold embrace of nothingness. I will not let it happen again. Even if it means bearing this torment, this endless cycle of suffering, for eternity. —I will forge a [Future Worth Living], even if it breaks me. ...Even if the world never knows the sacrifices I have made.
