the sinking floor

Qin Chen was transmigrated to the Taiyi Holy Land where he became a servant in charge of sweeping the floor. However, on his 16th birthday, he was rewarded with a system where he was rewarded whenever he signed in at a new place. When he signed in at the Empire Ruin, he was rewarded with the strongest Chaotic Holy Body and the Chaos Emperor Scripture. When he signed in at the Demon Sealing Land, he was rewarded with the Probationary Royal Armies. When he signed in at the Alchemy Palace, he was rewarded with the Divine-grade Alchemy. When he signed in at the Herb Garden, he was rewarded with an Immortality Elixir. When he signed in at the Empire Palace, he was rewarded with the Emperor-grade Divine Art, Revival. … Qin Chen thought he could just spend the rest of his life signing in at different places until he became invincible. However, when the ruin of the Great Kingdom appeared inside the holy land, people from other holy lands, prestigious families, and even ancient empires gathered to defeat the All-Powerful Demon King who appeared with the ruin. The Demon King had killed countless people and had planned to destroy the Taiyi Holy Land. Qin Chen was left with no choice but to step up. When he killed the Demon King with a single slap, he sighed, “Why do you guys have to force a mere servant to act?”

I moved into this house for peace. What I found was a voice — whispering beneath the floorboards. At first, I thought it was in my head. Sleep-deprived illusions, the old wood creaking. But the voice grew louder. It called my name. It told me things only I should know. It begged. It threatened. It wept. And every time I listened... I changed. As days blur into nights and reality slips through the cracks, I no longer know if I’m the only one living here. Or if the house is alive — feeding on me, molding me, watching me. This is not just a haunting. This is a descent — into the darkest parts of a mind, and a house that refuses to let go. You might hear them too, once you start reading. But be warned… The deeper you listen, the louder they become.

The world dungeon. A mysterious construct. It is spoken of in myth and legend. It stands tall, reaching through the clouds above, yet none can enter. No one knows what lies within. It has stood quietly for generation after generation. But now it stirs. Only a hundred people can walk the dungeon. To leave it, they must conquer it. Or die trying. Note: Any character resemblance to actual people is coincidental, all work is original. On the off chance I figure out how to put pictures in the story, any works you see were more than likely found with a google search. If the work belongs to you let me know and I give credit/take it down. That being said I'll mark my own work. Have fun, enjoy, don't count on regular updates (sorry, I have a wacky schedule to keep up with) and if you don't like the book, don't spam hate comments, just drop the book and go, that said, constructive criticism is appreciated.

When the System descended upon Earth, Arthur Suryawanshi was ready. He had read every manhwa, memorized every trope, and prepared for his moment to become an SSS-Class hero. But while the rest of humanity received swords, staves, and fireballs, Arthur received something else. He didn't get a Weapon. He got a Budget. [Class: MANAGER] [Role: Administrator of the Tutorial Floor] Trapped in the control room while the rest of the world fights for survival below, Arthur realizes the truth: The Apocalypse isn’t a battle; it’s a business. And he is the first employee. With 500 Creation Points (CP), he must design the perfect Tutorial. Too easy? The System penalizes him. Too hard? Every human dies, and he fails. Armed with a calculator, a modification menu, and a budget that’s barely enough to afford a starving Goblin, Arthur has to manage the end of the world. Welcome to the Tutorial. Please try not to die.

What would you give to save the world? Your life? Your freedom? The people you love? And what if, in the end, the person standing between humanity and survival was someone you called family? --- One year ago, billions of people vanished without a trace. No warning. No explanation. Nearly half of humanity simply disappeared, leaving the world with more questions than answers. Then the Tower appeared. Rising from the middle of the ocean and reaching beyond the clouds, the Tower became the center of a new world. Strange stone doors appeared across the globe, and through them came monsters unlike anything humanity had ever seen. The world fought back. When ordinary people began awakening extraordinary abilities, humanity finally found a chance to survive. Soldiers, Awakened, and volunteers entered the Tower, determined to uncover its secrets and find a way to protect the world outside. But the Tower has its own rules. Every floor brings new dangers, new enemies, and new challenges. The deeper they go, the more they begin to question what they thought they knew. Why did the Tower appear? Where did the missing billions go? And why does it seem to know so much about the people climbing it? As the survivors climb higher, friendships will be tested, sacrifices will be made, and enemies will not always be strangers. Because surviving the Tower may require more than strength. It may require deciding who you are willing to lose. And who you are willing to become. --- Updates: Saturday, Sunday and Monday --- Patreon is available (if you want to read ahead or read hidden side stories): https://patreon.com/mamapatience
