Rule or Die: A LitRPG Adventure

By Heath A. Clarkmann

"Commencing transference."

Strapped to a clinic chair and promised a payday, Daneel blacks out to this strange message in his head.

In a world of sovereigns and sorcery, he wakes in a stranger's body, his wish for a second chance answered by an echoing command: Rule or Die.

A fantastical system pipes missions into his head, complete with HUDs, tools...and loans with cutthroat interest. He's only twelve in this world, but here, he's not an orphan. With parents who love him and a family name ruined by the powerful, he has something to fight for.

Yet when every path to a better life leads to a throne rotting beneath corrupt nobles, he has to make a choice. Either repeat the pathetic existence he endured on Earth, where doing nothing wrong still cost him everything, or make the system's objective his own: to dominate and conquer the world.

In this second life, he's made a single vow: he shall have no regrets. So... is this really a choice at all?
