《Virtual Sword God! 》Chapter 68: Your Blood
Advertisement
For a second Novis thought he might have miss heard what gorge had said.
"What did you say?"
"Well it's only a theory of course but I'm pretty sure, after all, he is related to you, so why not?"
The thought had never crossed his mind before but if it was true his brother was also a chosen one, then did that mean his whole family was. Then why didn't his grandfather who originally owned the sword hear Arthur? Most important of all, didn't that mean his brother was able to hear and see Arthur this whole time.
"Does that mean my brother can hear both of you?"
"I'm not sure but honestly I don't think it works like that. When we were in the weapons, we had to use our energy to call out to the person. It was almost as if we were projecting our words into your mind. And as for you being able to see me. You already had Arthur. Maybe your brother will be able to see us if one of us is a part of him?"
Novis was trying to think if there was any way he could test out this theory of George's without having the need for his brother to experience what he had gone through.
His brother was only 12 years old and Novis didn't want him to go through the same experience he had. He was already enjoying his life and he didn't need a spirit to ruin it and ask him to go looking for his other ghost friends.
"Well do you want me to give it a try?"
Although Novis wanted to say yes as it might have opened up a clue to why only he could hear and be possessed by them, in the end, Novis decided against it.

"I'm sorry George but I don't want my brother to be a part of this."
Novis had expected George to complain and argue his case but George simply shook his head and understood. George was already inside Novis's mind and he even had Arthur for company. There was currently no need for him to move to another host.
"There might be another way?" Arthur suddenly said. "The weapons, of them had the sign of a dragon engraved into the weapon. I believe you were also the only person able to see the mark. If you bring the weapon to your brother and he can see it, then that would mean he is a chosen one."
Novis nodded and agreed. He thought this would be the best idea and wouldn't spook his brother out. The only problem was it was late at the moment and his weapons were at his grandfather's dojo. He would just have to bring the weapons to his brothers another day.
Novis was beat and didn't really have much to do for the rest of the day, so he decided to ask Arthur if he wanted to play VSW. George was shocked when he realised that Novis let Arthur play the game.
"What you mean you let Arthur play online!" George's eyes lit up.
Novis knew straight away that George wanted to have a go, Novis looked towards Arthur for a response.
"Let him play, all he's done this whole time is fight against me. Besides, it will be good for you to watch someone else of high skill fight for a change.
"Fine, but I'm not making him another ID, he'll just have to play on your account."
Novis went into his capsule and logged in online as the player ID Pendragon and at the same time notifications went off all around the world.

Ever since the two videos went viral from last time, more and more people were currently following the ID Pendragon. Even Novis's brother Bill received a notification about the mysterious player Pendragon.
Novis had long reached the maximum friend request limit and decided to just ignore them for now, every time he would clear the list he would just get more.
The fan base was excited to see what games Pendragon would play today.
"He's finally online, how can he be so good if he plays so little?"
"idiot it's probably an Alt account."
"Yeah but did you see the bounty the pros teams put out looking for him, no one has any idea who he is still."
"Yeah a pro team appeared at my university the other day, they were looking at all the players who played with the Warrior Dragonslayer but they were all rubbish."
Just when they were all excited to see the usual Pendragon display his amazing skill using the warrior Dragonslayer, something strange happened.
"What!!!"
"Did you just see that?!"
"Do you think it was an accident!"
"This is the first time he's done this!"
The online community and even the pro teams currently watching Pendragon went crazy at what they had just seen, for the first time ever he had selected a different warrior.
Of course, the reason for this was because instead of Arthur playing, this time Gorge was playing instead. Gorge logged into the game and selected the warrior that looked like him and the same one that Ashley used called Raidum.
Usually, pro players focused on one warrior. They would play as other warriors sometimes to learn their weaknesses and strengths but it was important to learn everything you could about your warrior and this took years.
Everyone had already naturally assumed that Pendragon was a Pro player and to play a warrior that was as bad as Dragonslayer that well, he had to have played him for years.
Now they were seeing him play someone else they couldn't help but think it was either an accident or he was just testing something out.
But this too sounded unreasonable because Pendragon was currently on a huge win streak and to risk losing that win streak by trying out a new warrior was a crazy thought to some.
As George entered the game, he felt alive looking at the forest and the castle behind him. He gave a few swings with the sword and his body responded straight away. Unlike with Arthur, the first time Arthur played was using the VR headset where there was a bit of delay but this time, they were using the capsule.
George then heard the noise of swords clashing which brought back memories for him. He gripped his sword and moved forward.
"Let's do this!"

Fateless: The Silver Lining
It has been ten years of peace for the Union since the end of the great war with the eastern barbarian tribes, yet in the cold north of the Union's land, a new threat is looming. This time, an ambitious Lord is seeking to restore the yore pride of his kin, forcing the weakened Union into yet another unwanted war, as he ramps up the ranks of his army with thieves, murderers and mercenaries.* * *The temperature inside the forge was nearly twice as high as the one outside. A black-haired girl hammered a steel ingot into the shape of a blade. The heat of the steam was draining her stamina away, but her focus remained sharp as her sweat streamed down her face. Hit after hit, for hours, the sound of the hammering steel followed the rhythm of her breathing. Exhausted, she placed the blade into the water and wiped the sweat off her face using a drenched rag. Why are they screaming? Vatra dipped the rag back in the water, twisted it, and approached the window. Her mouth opened as her world shattered again into the living nightmare she had wilfully tried to forget. She bit her lips; it wasn’t a dream. The pulse of her heart rose. A cold sweat prickled her back. A mother was running, and a child was screaming. A torrent of smoke was emerging from the roof of her neighbour. Vatra’s eyes blinked. The mother lay on the ground, a spear through her back. A torch circled in the air and landed on the roof of her workshop. In the distance, a man wearing a banner well known to the world… Fateless is a philosophical medieval dark low fantasy centered on war, militaristic campaigns and geopolitical conflicts between multiple empires. This story follows the fate of Vatra, a former slave from the eastern Nar Empire who was raised in a culture far away from her own, forced into warfare against her will, and the fate of Lanaya, an ambitious half-angel exiled from her home whose existence is seen as heresy. As they wished for peace, both chose a path opposed to one another until their fate crossed. In this story where war dictates the law, love strikes them as a poisoned balm to which they grasp for with all their might, as it is in the darkest of times that the smallest flames may burn the brightest. * * * Tome 1 already completed and available on Amazon: https://www.amazon.ca/Fateless-Silver-Hugo-Emmanuel-Simard-Wallot/dp/B09LGSH1KK Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Hugo-Emmanuel-Simard-Wallot-100547579135891/ I will publish 1 chapter per week (sometimes 2 if the chapters are too short for my liking).

A Cleric's Life for me.
This is a casually written story loosely based on TTRPG games like DnD and Pathfinder. The attempt of the story is to have a slow growth in power and comical set of characters who eventually grow close and set off for more serious adventures. There will be plenty of familiars and funny tales that don't involve combat. The intention is not to be a goody-two-shoes cleric story where nothing bad happens. The intention for this story was a slow paced grungy story where everything seemed great at first and things just kept getting worse. I learned how shitty of a story that is to write and honestly I am just not good enough to get the idea down. I plan on revisiting it later.
