《Doll of Death》Chapter 3
Advertisement
I get into position laying in the dark as a pile of rocks and wait to see what is approaching.
(Young Man) "What's with the smell of blood?"
(Young Woman) "It's coming from those monster corpses."
(Gruff Young Man) "What monster leaves behind its spoils of battle? Doesn't it need food?"
It's a group of people. They are probably the so-called "adventurers" people who can't get a real job and resort to doing work the government is too lazy and cheap to send soldiers to do. Let's appraise them.

Too strong! I can't afford to fight them, I'm too weak. Let's just run away. I get up and start running away.
(Chase) "Woah! You saw that Stone Puppet run."
(Emily) "Maybe it saw us as scary and decided to leave."
(Dave) "Who cares, there's nothing to gain fighting Stone Puppets."

(Chase) "It's surprisingly fast for a Stone Puppet. Might be a Unique Stone Puppet."
(Emily) "Even if it is there's still nothing to gain."
(Dave) "Let's just take some of the Scorpion's exoskeleton back since it's in great condition."
They walk towards the corpses and examine them.
(Dave) "whistles They were all killed by one or two blunt hits."
(Chase) "Blunt hits? I wonder if the Stone Puppet killed them? It's only form of attacking are it's blunt hands."
(Emily) "Most likely, if it could kill a scorpion like this in 2 hits it's either at least level 10 or has unique skills to increase damage output. Both dangerous, the latter more so. If any reports in the future talk about a bizarrely strong stone puppet appear we pretend this never happened. Agreed?"
(Chase & Dave) "Yeah."
The small party takes what they want and proceed to head back from where they first came in. Right after they leave a small shadow creeps out of the darkness and heads toward the monster corpses and proceeds to swallow them. After it has its meal it proceeds to crawl back into the darkness and in the direction of where the Doll of Death went to.
A few minutes after I ran I was in a different passageway looking around. I found a group of three level 4 goblins. I observed them and snuck up behind them right when I was in position I attack the back of two of their necks instantly killing them and rush to the third one kicking him in the family jewels killing him.
Level Up! Reached Level 4!
I leveled up good. Now that that's over I should see some of the details on the new things the adventurers had.

Shamrock Samurai
How many shotgun blasts does it take to kill a Banshee? Sean’s a martial arts enthusiast who just discovered his Luck magic. Will his new powers be enough to combat the slew of celtic monsters that cropped up to terrorize his city? He’ll unload a whole barrel of Luck on these paranormal pests, cruising in his ‘69 Fastback, slaying shades after dark. You’ll ride shotgun with Sean as he battles Banshees, clashes with Leprechauns, strives against Vampires, and defends his own against Celtic Demigods. There’s plenty of magic sword fights, shots fired, car chases, fisticuffs, and portal hopping while adventuring between the Bay Area and the mythical realm of Irish legend, Tir na nOg! ------------------------------------------------ I'm happy to offer this COMPLETE SAGA (6 arcs) here PERMAFREE (never in Kindle Unlimited). Imagine the intense action of JOHN WICK + the swords-n-guns slaying of DEVIL MAY CRY, and that had a baby with CELTIC MYTHOLOGY and some PORTAL HOPPING, add a pinch of INUYASHA's horrific monsters, a smattering of YUYU HAKUSHO angst, and that's Shamrock Samurai.*Contains portal hopping as a major element in each arc, but this story IS NOT Isekai (nothing against it personally. Want to make sure you know what you're getting into). Enjoy, and good luck ☘️! ------------------------------------------------ Readers say... “This series is kind of wild.”_David Simpson, author of the Zombie Road series. “Loved the plot twists and the action.” “I found the concept of magic/luck to be original and refreshing... PLENTY of action.” “Cool blend of geek culture and Gaelic mythology in a modern paranormal setting.” “Hang on till the end. There’s a wild twist I didn’t see coming.”

Lone: The Wanderer [Rewrite]
Nine-to-five. The daily grind. Life. Painful years of school. Working as a slave for some undeserving corporate big-wig. The monotonous life of unemployment. We all experience this in one way or another, and we can all conclude one thing: it's dull. Such a fact rings true even for the fabled Lone Immortus, a powerful nine-tailed Golden Foxkin. However, what would you do if your monotony was suddenly ground to a halt and you were thrown out of your comfort zone along with a young girl forgotten by time? Perhaps you might have done things differently, been more organised, immediately died, gained control of the world in a matter of days, but this is Lone's tale, not yours. Watching two insecure people struggle to survive and find their place in an unfamiliar land just might be enjoyable to witness. Who knows? One thing's for certain: it won't be an easy path for them to tread, and what could possibly be more entertaining than watching people endure hardships and grow? I know of at least eight gods that would answer with, 'Absolutely nothing.' I wonder, after seeing this journey from start to finish, how would you answer?

Overgrowth
I never thought I'd be killed by butterflies. But here I am... Edmon Valli was a smuggler, before a freak storm threw him off course and stranded him on a desert island smack in the middle of an uncharted monster zone. Trying his best to survive, or possibly even escape, he stumbles across the find of a lifetime: an unclaimed dungeon crystal. This is a dungeon-ish story, but without reincarnation or transmigration. I started it as a whim for NaNoWriMo so I may drop it any time after that... or I might not. My current plan is to write until I can reach some sort of conclusion and call it 'volume one'. I hope someone enjoys reading it for now! All comments, corrections, and criticism welcome.

His unique set of in-game skills and traits, designed to help him get the most powerful monsters on his side, end up nearly causing his death. Escaping at the last moment, The Repulsive Tamer named Vaile goes on a grand adventure to see those Tamed Beings of his that exist in the New World, but he must be careful.
