Journey Towards Greatness Chapter 78
Advertisement
Lorelei looks at Dewgong who is completely knocked out and clinches her fist.
Lorelei 'I have already lost two of my pokemons one is paralyzed, I don't know how long will the paralyzed state be activated on Cloyster, I have only Slowbro and Lapras but I don't have any advantage. The Ice battlefield is completely destroyed, what do I do'
Lorelei "Dewgong you did well, return"
Announcer "Lorelei has lost her second pokemon, leaving only three of them left. On the other hand, Julian still has all his pokemons"
Lorelei looks at Julian who is staring at her, she felt as if he knew everything she was going to do, she then finally realized.
Lorelei 'Looks like I had lost this battle from the start'
Lorelei "Go Slowbro"
Announcer "Lorelei's fourth Pokemon is Slowbro, it clearly has an advantage against Infernape"
Julian "Infernape you may return"
Julian called back Infernape surprising everyone, many had expected Infernape to continue fighting.
Announcer "Julian had decided to call back Infernape, so which pokemon is he gonna send next"
Julian "Let's do this again, Electivire"
Electivire once again appeared in the battle stadium and saw the carnage and looked around confused.
Lorelei "I guessed you would send Electivire"
Julian "Well its always better to have an advantage"
Lorelei "Indeed, but I won't give up so easily"
Julian "Electivire use Electric Terrain"
As soon as Electivire heard Julian saying Electric Terrain, Electivire's body suddenly glowed yellow and sent out waves of electricity into the area and causing the whole area to glow yellow, Electric Terrain was activated meaning Electivire's electric moves where now more powerful than ever.
Announcer "Electivire has activated Electric Terrain, this is going to be very bad for Lorelei"
Lorelei "Slowbro quickly use Water Gun"
Julian "Counter with Thunderbolt"
As both pokemons performed their moves as they collided with each other, soon the Water Gun was obliterated by the Thunderbolt as it continued to charge towards Slowbro.
Lorelei "Now, Teleport behind Electivire and use Zen Headbutt"
As the Thunderbolt was about to hit Slowbro, it quickly disappeared and reappeared behind Electivire and charged towards him using Zen Headbutt.
Julian "Thunder Punch"
Electivire quickly turned around and met Slowbro head-on with a crackling Thunder Punch, both collided and formed an enormous backlash from it, they both were pushed back a little, of course, due to Electric Terrain Electivire delt more damage to Slowbro.
Julian "That Zen Headbutt of your Slowbro is very strong, I didn't expect it to clash head-on with Electivire"
Lorelei "Hmpf, I have just started"
Lorelei "Slowbro use Telekinesis and send stones flying at Electivire"
Slowbro was actually very powerful it lifted multiple shattered rocks from the ground and formed a tornado of it and sent it towards Electivire, each and every rock in this tornado was able to deal a lot of damage so Julian didn't want to take any chances.

Julian "Electivire bring down Thunder upon yourself"
Electivire raised his hands up in the sky and suddenly dark clouds started to form and rumbled, it started to spin and create a hole right in the middle and next a huge lightning bolt came crashing down on Electivire and hit him, the impact was so devasting that it cause the raging rock tornado to slow down and reduce its power, the battlefield was completely charred black, the referee had already fled far away as he didn't want to get in middle of this devastating battle.
Announcer "What just happened, why did Julian bring down an attack on this Electivire?"
As the scene cleared everybody could see Electivire standing as smoke could be seen coming off his body but they were shocked to see that Electivire was still standing and something was different about him. His body was covered with electricity as it ran wildly on his body.
Julian "Activate Ion Deluge"
Electivire activated Ion Deluge, Ion Deluge could convert any Normal-type move into Electric-type move.
Lorelei suddenly found something fishy but it was too late.
Julian [Giga Impact]
Lorelei "Quick Slowbro Teleport"
Before Slowbro could even teleport Electivire had already slammed Slowbro and sent it flying across the battlefield and into a wall behind Lorelei. It was too quick many of them couldn't even see what happened, they only saw a yellow flash and next second they heard a boom and saw Slowbro planted into a wall, knocked out.
Referee "Slowbro is unable to battle Electivre wins"
Lorelei "How did Electivire become so fast?"
Lorelei was completely shocked, she didn't expect Electivire to be so fast with such a huge body, she thought of using Slowbro's teleport to counter Electivire but her calculation where all wrong.
Julian 'Well why would I bring down thunder upon Electivire, it's actually his ability Motor Drive, every time he gets hit by an electric type move his speed increases, the more powerful the attack the faster he becomes. That thunder was to increase his speed, Ion Deluge to convert Giga Impact into electric type attack and with the help of Electric Terrain, its game over'
Lorelei looked at Julian but Julian was just standing still and looking at her to make her next move.
Lorelei 'How can I win against him? I just have to continue I guess, I hope Cloyster isn't still paralyzed'
Lorelei "Go Cloyster"
As soon as Cloyster came inside the battlefield, its body was zapped by electricity, the Paralyzed effect was still not gone and due to Electric Terrain, it flared up causing additional damage.
Julian "Looks like your Cloyster will not be able to continue, I think you should call it back"

Lorelei didn't know what to do, she hoped Cloyster's Paralyzed effect was gone but it flared up more.
The Referee looked at Lorelei and said.
Referee "If you call back Cloyster now, it will be counted as a loss"
Lorelei was now put in a dilemma.
Lorelei 'What should I do, if I call back Cloyster I will only have one pokemon left but will Cloyster even be able to battle in such state. I think I should call him back, I don't want him to be seriously injured just for a battle'
Lorelei "I understand, Cloyster return"
Referee "Cloyster is unable to battle, Electivire wins"
Julian "I am impressed, as expected of a member of elite four, you care about your pokemons more than a victory"
Lorelei "A true trainer is a person who looks after his partner no matter the situation so I did what I need to do"
Julian "Indeed, you are right. You gained my respect"
Lorelei "You can save that for later, I am still not finished with you"
Julian just smiled after hearing this.
Julian "Then we should Continue"
Lorelei "Its gonna be the toughest battle ever, go Lapras"
Lorelei "Fill the stadium with Ice"
Lapras enters the battlefield and covers it with Ice using Ice Beam, Electivire dodges the Ice Beam as the ground gets covered by thick layer of Ice, but it slowly started to melt due to Electric Terrain still in effect but its gonna take time to completely melt away.
Julian 'Using Electric Terrain to create water from Ice, if she did this I probably think that her Lapras has Hydration or Water Observe ability, mostly Hydration. Well this is really a risky move from her doesn't she know water conduct electricity'
Julian "Electivire use Electro Balls"
Electivire gets a grip with his legs and creates multiple Electro Balls as they start to revolve around him, this move is as same as Gengars Shadow Balls.
Electivire launches them towards Lapras with super speed.
Lorelei "Lapras counter with Ice Shards"
Lapras also sends out Ice Shards but these where larges and faster and more in quantity than her Cloyster's, the Ice Shards collided with those Electro Balls, Ice Shards were sent shattering but they were many in numbers causing the Electro Balls to defuse as well after some time.
Julian "Giga Impact"
Lorelei "Protect"
Electivire tares through the air as his Giga Impact is completely made of high voltage lightning, Electivire rips through the sound barrier and slams onto Lapras. The Protective shield shatters but Lapras is safe but it still gets zapped a little due to water being everywhere, Electivire is pushed back from the backlash, Electivire does a backflip and slides back while maintaining his balance with his hand and knee.
Julian "Bring down Thunder"
The black clouds form and Lightning strikes down towards Lapras.
Lorelei "Hyper Beam"
Lapras uses its full power and aims up and sends out a huge Hyper Beam towards the incoming Lightning, the moves collide and causes a huge explosion in mid-air, the sound of the explosion nearly caused everyone to go deaf, everyone in the stadium covered their ears as they watched these moves clash.
The Lightning then finally tore through the Hyper Beam and struck down on Lapras, Lapras was zapped and got injured, due to the Hyper Beam its power was brought down.
Lapras who was injured slowly started to heal due to its Hydration ability.
Julian 'As I expected Hydration, well its time to end this, I don't want to continue this'
Julian "Let's end this, Electivire Giga Impact"
Electivire charged with full speed towards Lapras ripping through the sound barrier.
Lorelei "Yes, let's end this, Zap Canon"
Lapras suddenly created a huge ball made of powerful electricity, Zap Cannon is one of the strongest Electric-type moves and with Electric Terrain in effect, it was now more powerful.
Electivire crashed into the huge Zap Cannon and BOOM. The Explosion ripped the ground beneath them to shreds, the ice went flying everywhere, the walls around the stadium cracked just from the shock wave, the crowd was safe as they were protected by a layer of forcefield.
The whole battlefield was covered with a cloud of smoke which was clearing slowly when the smoke was cleared everyone saw it, Lapras was down knocked out and Electivire was on one Knee and had a grin on his face.
Referee "Lapras is unable to Battle, Electivire wins. The winner of this battle is Julian"
Announcer "Its over, Julian defeated Lorelei the member of Elite four, indicating he is as strong as them. So his next battle will be against Bruno the fighting type expert of the Elite four until then stay tuned"
Lorelei looked at her Lapras who was knocked out and called her back.
Lorelei "You did well, now take a good rest"
Julian walked towards her and extended his hand.
Julian "Lorelei that was a good battle"
Lorelei looked at Julian then smiled and shook his hand.
Lorelei "Indeed"
Julian then took his leave with Electivire who walked proudly taking huge strides, Julian just smiled seeing this.
Julian "Next is Bruno, let's see what that battle freak will put on the table"

Apostle of the Goddess
A disappointed man dreams of leaving the confines of Earth and living adventures in fantastic realms...Suddenly, his wish is granted... Albeit in a far different way from what he could have expected. An isekai genre story with a few elements from LitRPG. The overall tone will be jumping back and forth from light to dark. Expect a lot of references to anime, manga, games, etc.It is written in first-person view and will contain a side-story using a "real-life" character. Initially, the MC will be writing the story as a true journal, so the prologue and first chapters may appear a mess of things that already happened, journal entries, and afterthoughts. A few chapters in, it will change into a normal, first-person manner retelling of what happened (storywise the character "Records" what happened to him). This is a side project of mine, so I will be uploading a few chapters per month. Chapters may have a severe difference in length (albeit I will try to maintain them around 3k), but expect the overall monthly word count to be not less than 15k words.Author recommendation, if you intend to follow the story, read the new updates once a month (counting from the day the first chapter is uploaded). Content Warning: I do intend to include a few disturbing moments to emphasize the darkness of the human (and other beings) nature, so please consider that even though some chapters (especially the starting ones) are kinda like a comedy routine.

Patchwork System
Notification (cannot be ignored): For being the first being to kill another of its own species after Sublimation, Lyam Aldren is awarded the Title of Cain’s Successor. Let all fear the Kinslayer!!! Lyam Aldren, killer for hire, was just going about his business when he suddenly received a notification from something called the System. Apparently, the entirety of Earth, its denizens and its matter were transported into the world of the System, planted in 'patches' all throughout the infinite world. The world of the Patchwork System is one of challenges, where life is cheap, power is king, and Classes and levels are a thing. In a brutal world, there is perhaps room for a killer with bloodstained hands to find his own way, free of his past. However, his Title and his inherent nature plague him, his fragmented personality laid bare to those with the eyes to see, and if he doesn't become powerful enough to defeat or escape those who would use or destroy him, he will quickly be devoured by the merciless world created by the System. Compared to my previous work, this is a more 'classic' litrpg setup, with clear (if somewhat complex) progression through levels and skill gains, with a 'system apocalypse' setup. Unlike most system apocalypse story protagonists, Lyam is neither a leader nor is he particularly interested in saving his fellow Earthlings. This is a story of a man who is both endangered and set free by the destruction of his old world, as he finds both power, new discoveries, and adventure in a place where his past matters not at all and power is the only language most speak. Later in the story, there will be harem elements, but the first volume is dedicated to Lyam's first months in the System. For those who are more interested in the Heirs of the Hooded King, I am putting it on hiatus as I rework the setting and future story developments a bit.

Crimson Gloom
Crimson Gloom. The time when the moon turns crimson, illuminating the landscape with its crimson glow. The time when the ‘doors’ to the Crimson Abyss open. One shall gaze into the abyss and gain its secrets and powers. Concurrently, the abyss also gazes into oneself, gaining one’s sanity and humanity. Dimensional rifts appeared spontaneously on Earth, bringing otherworldly demons along with the Crimson Gloom. Bloody battles were fought, noble sacrifices were made. Humans eventually sealed the rifts and successfully defended their homeworld. Alas, the seals were not perfect. The Crimson Abyss continued to exist, slowly influencing Earth and its inhabitants. Half a century of relatively uneventful years passed… humanity slowly descended into corruption, and the majority of them knew nothing of the effects of the Crimson Abyss. Is there only the dreadful gloom left to the world? Can one find brightness in the increasingly gloomy world? The youth who had gazed into the Crimson Abyss had no answer, nor did he care. He only wanted the Crimson Gloom to end, to forever seal the Crimson Abyss. A mistake and a twist of fate led the youth into a seemingly totally different direction. Will he forget his lifelong goal? Will he instead step back onto his initial path that he fervently pursued? Disclaimer: I do not own the image on the cover. Image edited on canva.com. This piece of work, after all, is only a first draft and by no means an end product by an amateur (beginner) writer. Mistakes are bound to happen. With that said, I will strive to improve as I write. Feel free to point out errors and inconsistencies as you read. I thank you for your time. Finally, I pledge to not rewrite this novel until the first draft is completed.
