This is what I’m talking about, did you see that punch?
She just took the little gremlins torso out for lunch!
Though she may not survive this fight, it should still be grand
I’ll give you as many buffs as your body can stand
The gremlins upper half exploded with the quick attack
The gremlins made a ruckus and were quite taken aback
But before they had time to gather around young Sky
The two messengers made several more gremlin heads fly
The messengers were fast, even compared against young Leaf
And their sword skills quickly gave the children some relief
Leaf went straight to work attacking the weaker monsters
While the kings’ attention was drawn by the messengers
Leaf was cautious while he ran around slashing his foes
Sky was laughing, simply punching gremlins in the nose
Leaf managed to kill a half a dozen with his knife
By the time Sky’s fist took it’s twentieth gremlin life
Achievement: The Makings of an Assassin
You have just killed six enemies before they saw you
That’s something even young assassins struggle to do
Though you’ll always have the blessing of a god of speed
You may earn a fine assassin class one day indeed
Achievement: Painting the Forest my Favourite Colour
I can’t peel my eyes away, are you really just ten?
I’ve seen tougher kids, but I cannot remember when
You just one shotted twenty monsters with your right fist
Though you’re having fun, be careful not to hurt your wrist!
Sky was most at risk of injury in such a fight

Rather than exhaustion, Berserkers just felt delight
Her body would be in tatters before she would feel tired
Luckily her foes were gone before her strength expired
The messengers at dealt with the two stronger kings with names
Even though one Gremlin King had summoned raging flames
Leaf drove his knife into the back of the weakest king
Then together, they killed the gremlins still remaining
Once the dust had settled and their safety was assured
They took a moment to recount the battle they endured
“You kids shouldn’t be out here alone, there’s something wrong
You should get back to your homes, now quickly move along”
The elder messenger spoke strictly to young Sky and Leaf
Though the great amount of blood on Sky caused disbelief
“You may not be quite strong for children, but this is no game
Go back quickly to the village from which you both came”
Leaf was quite intimidated by the messenger
But Sky didn’t seem to let his order bother her
“We are not out playing here, we both are on a quest
It’s a task we’re bound to, which the gods themselves have blessed”
Roy frowned in acknowledgement that such things did occur
And didn’t ask why she was covered in dry blood and fur
“Very well, it’s not our place to end another’s quest
By the way, are you from that small village to the west?”
“Yes, it is the only village you will find out here
Guest are rarer than the portals that often appear”
Sky new that the king had send a summons earlier
But she found it odd to see another messenger
Roy used his appraisal skill to look at Leaf and Sky
After he confirmed their stats he let out a long sigh
“Neither of you are the child we seek, so you may go

Do you know a child who’s seen a System Message though?”
Leaf was just about to speak when Sky grabbed his shoulder
“My father told me he’d explain Systems when I’m older
We don’t know of anything like that, so we’ll depart
Our destiny is clear to us, so our journey must start”
Leaf feared that his arm might break as he was pulled along
“Okay, I’m coming, ouch, your hands are way to flippen strong”
The messengers looked at their map and left in a hurry
Thinking little of the children and their grand journey

Beyond the Veil
Martin's life would never be the same. He somehow survived a massacre by shady men in black, only to discover they were conspiring with the police. What was he going to do now? But where one life ends, another life begins. One that will learn of magic, and the world beyond the veil. This is a complete rewrite of my first story, The World Beyond the Veil. This is not the same story. Not even a single sentence has been copy-pasted from the original fiction. Readers of the original will recognize a lot of elements, but there are more and more differences as the story progresses. The fiction is planned as a trilogy. The first volume is published. Regarding one of the tags:Sexual Content: There are no explicit sex scenes in the story. On the other hand, it is definitely a story meant for an adult audience, with plenty of references to sex and genitalia. If you're not comfortable with that, maybe steer away from this story. I am very interested in feedback. Let me know if you spot a plot hole or something else that seem off to you.
