Chapter 1The Author's Tale

I've always been the type of author who loses himself in the realms of imagination. Hours, sometimes days, would slip by unnoticed as I poured my thoughts onto the blank pages, weaving tales of magic, wonder, and adventure. In those moments, I became a creator of worlds and an architect of destinies. But my own life, well, that had been more mundane.

My name is Samuel, I lived in a bustling city My world was one of routines and deadlines, a reality far removed from the epic landscapes and daring exploits of my novels. I found solace in my stories, and perhaps that's why they came to consume me.

As I already told you I'm the author. It's just for fun, my parents were rich and I don't need to work for money.

I like to imagine things and bring them into words, I only wrote one book Extraordinary Odyssey. It's just a typical novel you can find on any website.

Let me give you a summary of the "Blades of Destiny."

Long ago, humanity on Earth lived in a world devoid of magic. They marvelled at the fantastical tales of other realms but were bound by the limitations of their reality. However, the turning point came when an ancient artefact was discovered buried deep within the heart of the supercontinent. This artefact, known as the "Luminar Crystal," was a gift from the cosmos, a cosmic anomaly that bridged the gap between magic and science.

But this "Luminar Crystal" is what I call a disaster. The first time "Luminar Crystal" was discovered it had so much power that could not be contained any longer. It explodes in millions of pieces, and when that happens an energy realises from the "Luminar Crystal" all around the world.

Its shift in tectonic plates all over Earth, moving countries from where they were previously, resulting in tsunamis and earthquakes, killing millions in the process. The sudden shift in tectonic plates caused the world map to permanently change, with thereon one landmass surrounded by water

As energy travels the places in the world's environment change. Normal animals become bigger and become more deadly over time pass.

One month later after the explosion of "Luminar Crystal" Huge portals started appearing where unknown species which were later identified as demons and other races, started emerging. At first, they were docile, but as soon as they deemed humanity weak they started rampaging all over the place.

But with great disasters come opportunities. As portals appeared, humanity managed to gain access to mana. A special force that lingered throughout the atmosphere and originated from other worlds. It would allow humans to do things they could've only dreamt of doing in the past like summoning fireballs or cutting through metal.

Scientists and mages worked tirelessly to study the pieces, of Luminar Crystal, that have been saved after an explosion, unlocking its secrets over generations. They realized that the crystal emitted a unique energy—mana—that had the potential to fuel spells, enhance technology, and transform the very nature of Earth. Through meticulous research, humanity discovered a way to harness and distribute mana, allowing every individual to tap into this previously untapped resource.

As humanity began to integrate mana into their lives, a revolution of unparalleled proportions unfolded. Technology flourished with the infusion of magical energy, leading to the creation of floating cities, teleportation devices, and energy sources that reshaped the landscape. Magic, once thought to be the realm of myth, became a tangible force that could be wielded by anyone willing to learn.

At this point, everything has become normal like it was before Luminar Crystal. But then another disaster occurs. As the world of Earth evolved, the boundaries between dimensions began to blur. It wasn't long before the cosmic forces that had granted humanity mana's access also facilitated the convergence of different races from across the multiverse. Elves, Dwarves, and other fantastical beings stepped through the veils that separated their worlds, drawn by the allure of Earth's newfound harmony between magic and technology.

Elves, renowned for their connection to nature and mastery of arcane arts, were drawn to Earth's vibrant landscapes and the prospect of joining a world on the brink of a magical revolution. Dwarves, with their expertise in craftsmanship and mining, found a haven in Earth's towering cities and burgeoning technological advancements.

The integration of these races into Earth was not without challenges.

For the prideful elves, the selfish acts and schemes which they witnessed during humanity's dark moments made all thoughts of collaboration vanish, only to be replaced with utter disdain.

And for the Dwarves, humanity's primitive technology made them seem like brainless monkeys who roamed around flaunting their power and intelligence with no substantial backing.

Power Struggles arose as each race brought its unique traditions and perspectives. However, over time, a fragile harmony emerged as the races learned to coexist and collaborate, harnessing their strengths to shape Earth's destiny.

The supercontinent, once home solely to humanity, became a melting pot of races, languages, and cultures. Together, they contributed to the intricate tapestry of Earth's society, where magic and technology flourished side by side, and where the old legends mingled with the innovations of the present.

With new people and new races, they decided to change the name of the planet, they changed it from 'Earth to Etheria'.

They also revealed the reasons why all of them came here. It's Because of Demon. They destroyed their old home and now their target is Earth.

And so, Etheria stood as a testament to the boundless potential of a world shaped by imagination, where humanity's access to mana had not only revolutionized their existence but had also drawn beings from across the cosmos to join in the grand narrative of unity, discovery, and shared destinies.

****

Initially, the story starts with the protagonist enrolling in the 'Nova', a specialized school that was established by the effort of all humanity, to raise warriors to defend the borders against the attacks from both factions.

He was your typical MC with a tragic past

- Parents died due to war at the hands of demons

- Vengeance against Demons

…and so on

It was what you would expect from an MC.

It was my masterpiece. At least that's what I thought, but looking through the comment section I couldn't help but rage.

I mean how would you feel if what you feel is your masterpiece gets insulted?

Terrible right?

Letting out a long breath, I try to once again calm myself.

Lately, I've been having anger issues. The simplest thing could get me mad, which just goes to show how bad my anger issues were.

But it couldn't be helped. With how sh*tty my life was, I was bound to develop a twisted personality.

We'll that all in the past. Past, why do you ask I'm referring to the present as the past.

Because.

Today is the day I'm going to die I know it that's why I'm writing this diary to my parents.

I always use their money so at least they know how grateful I feel toward them.

" Mom-Dad I Love- kuh kuh ah, shit not now at least let me complete this one sentence."

But I couldn't complete it. Ah, so this is how it feels. I died today.

The day I died remains etched in my memory. It was a fateful accident, one that took me from the ordinary world I d thrust me into the extraordinary. I felt myself slipping away, consciousness ebbing like a tide receding from the shore. And then, as darkness claimed me.

***

Chirp chirp chirp

Awaking me from my slumber was the peaceful sound of birds chirping

I could faintly feel the warm gentle sunshine envelop my whole body, causing my lethargic self to feel more energetic.

Opening my eyes, I found myself inside a room.

Rubbing my eyes to make sure I was still not sleeping I blinked a couple of times and once more looked at my strange surroundings.

'Aren't I supposed to be…dead?'

…was what I thought at first, but seeing that I was still breathing and seeing just fine, I thought that perhaps someone had rescued me moments before I died, and right now I was in a hospital.

But with each passing second, I realized that this was not the case.

Why?

"Wake up Lucas, how long are you going to sleep, it's already noon. Now hurry and wake up"

Because someone shouting at the door.

And who the hell is Lucas???

Reincarnated To Evolve My Bee Empire

"Now, go forth, my mortal champion! Conquer this world—or else!" I lived a painfully average life and died by a stupid, stupid accident, but a goddess interfered, giving me a second chance in another world. There, I became royalty—the lazy kind with almost no obligations, free to live in peace and luxury for the rest of my days. Sounds like a dream, right? In reality, it was anything but—because I became *BEE* royalty. A Drone Bee, doomed to die of old age in 2 months! (A humanoid bee, thankfully, but still a bee in all the ways that matter.) The only way to increase my lifespan is to develop and grow my bee colony—a deadly task in a vicious world like this one. There are murderous insect monsters, colossal beasts trampling the earth, other civilizations, natural disasters, and the bitchy patron goddess who absolutely hates me. But as long as I have my brains, my bees, and the powerful genes my system gives me, my Bee Empire will be unstoppable! === For those who want to know more: This is a wholesome comedic story, but it has some dark moments. The focus is on kingdom building, survival as an empire, and interacting with MC’s beautiful bee wife and adorable bee daughters. The bees are all humanoid (see pictures) and human-sized. However, they are still bees in their ways of life and mentality. Although there’s a system, real growth comes from putting effort and time. Nothing happens in an instant in this story, unless it’s trouble. MC acts like an idiot sometimes (oftentimes), but he’s not actually stupid-stupid. When it comes to strategic decisions, he uses logic and reason. Even if you might disagree with it. Also, there will be no smut (ecchi is a fair game), incest, NTR, harem or BL. === Discord is up! Find it at -> https://linktr.ee/Garessta Updates: 2 chapters/day, right after the reset (with a 5% chance of running late). Reply to author's pinned review if you have questions. Also, although I realize the futility of this aim (at least right now), if this novel reaches top 15 golden ticket ranking (and stays there for a few days, obv), I will mass release 10 extra chapters! (within 30 calendar days)

I feel like the author writes this story more on a whim, without much coherent thought behind it. It feels like he just tosses a bunch of information at you at the start of the novel, and then goes off and writes random plot twists dependent on his mood. Characters just perform actions outside of their explained personality, which personally i don't consider character development,character derailment maybe. Way too much time is also spent on random scuffles not really relevant to the story, being labelled as main scenarios, but could honestly be reduced to a chapter or 2 and nothing would change. I think the more egregious thing however is the author biting off more than he can chew. He spends several chapters building up this world based on a potentially predetermined story, and without the readers even knowing much about it, he sets about changing everything. I frankly don't understand setting up this world around certain characters to just add more supposedly, spicing up the novel however I just find it confusing. It's similar to wearing a full suit then just putting on a pair of pink underwear over it for flare, unnecessary. I think trying to add surprising elements to the Mc's background is ok, however shoving it into your face 20 chapters in is just so jarring and such an uncomfortable upset to the pace of the story. It's like if you're reading a novel about killing the demon king, then you spent 20 chapters on stopping some bullying not relevant, 30 chapters on a dungeon that could be 5, meaningless character interactions yes please give me 25, now why don't we make the mc's family secretly demon worshipers and the female lead's family a group of anthropomorphic hamsters, oh wait what was the main goal again, the demon king? The novel is now 100+ chapters and the author is getting tired, demon king is too far away and the hamster arc still needs to be solved, gg go next. If you don't have 600 chapters worth of effort and time to put into a novel, please don't write it as such with so many plot twists and turns before you've even properly started on the main path. Sorry bit of a rant at the end but thanks for reading, even this review could be shorter lol.
