...
"I can't wait until we get to the ocean, I've always wanted to go."
"Me too. I've only seen paintings."
"They had paintings in the tower, Julius?"
"Oh yes, they had a lot of them. A whole floor of nothing but paintings, they were beautiful."
"Wow... a whole floor. I've only seen a few for sale in the city, they're always so expensive. Gold pieces and everything."
"Hey Lars... What is the boss really doing out there?"
"At the gates? Well, he's talking with the nice men on the wall top for starters... I think."
"I know... but it looks like they're shouting now."
"Well the wall is pretty high up, I guess they just want to make sure they're heard."
"Miss Elf beside him looks really mad too, she's waving her shovel at them."
"Well, she has a bit of a temper sometimes... That's probably normal."
"The nice men on the walls look mad too."
"Hmm, yeah you're right. I think they're probably just surprised. I doubt a lot of people come back this way aside from Orcs and Goblins."
"Why are Eron and Sandra with him again?"
"They're just there for moral support. I'm telling you, the boss is really good at talking to people. It'll be fine: I remember this one time he convinced a Vampire to pay us a bunch of money to clear out some goblins."
"Really? A real vampire?"
"Yeah, his name was Fritz. Six hundred silver, six hundred Julius! You should have seen the steaks we bought that night."
"Steaks? Wow! I've never had steak... Did the vampire give those to you?"

"No, Boss says that vampires hate steaks."
"Hey, what about the bows they have?"
"The soldiers? Ah... Huh... yeah... You're right, they do have them."
"I've never seen such large bows."
"Ha, well bow's are no big deal. Every gate-keeper on the wall has a bow, it's totally normal in the East. I mean, they don't climb down the wall to fight Orcs or Goblins- they just shoot at them."
"I guess so... But they're pointing them now."
"Right, but that's just because they're supposed to. They've got to look the part for their job, right? Nobody wants to get fired for not doing their job"
"Right... Yeah, that makes sense. I really didn't want to get fired at my last job."
"Was your boss scary?"
"Yeah, he was really scary. Like, evil, but his boss was even worse."
"Ha, well he couldn't have been that bad could he? I mean- oh. Well that's not good."
"Did they-"
"Yeah, they just shot an arrow at him."
"It missed though."
"Only because Sola hit it with her shovel."
"The boss looks really mad. Is that bad?"
"Well, he has a temper sometimes too. He's taught me a bunch of words I'm not supposed to know."
"What's that hand gesture mean?"
"I think it's a foreign formality thing. He's probably trying to calm everyone down."
"They're getting more arrows though."
"Hmm... Yeah, you're right."
"Oh. Wow, Miss elf just swatted them out of the air."
"Ha yeah, and now her ears are twitching: That means she's really angry. Haven't seen her this upset since the Boss got stabbed by an Orc."
"The boss got stabbed?"
"Oh yeah, before you met us he- Woah. WOAH."

"Holy smokes, look! Sandra and Eron are shooting lightning from their hands!"
"Wow, the Boss is a Battlemage, but I've never seen anything like this. He just makes this really loud noise with that bit of wood and metal, and the bad-guys sort of fall over."
"Really? That's it?"
"Yeah, it's always loud and scary, but there's never much to see. Holy..."
"Light and bells, I think that Soldier just flew into the air when that bolt hit him."
"Oh... yeah he flew alright."
"Look, the gate is gone. Seems like it fell down."
"Yeah... It's on fire. Oh, they're all coming back now. Boss still looks a bit mad."
"Think we should be worried?"
"Nah. This is totally normal."

Omnipocalypse Monsters(Shelved Timeline)
System Edit: This timeline has been shelved, but the adventures of the Omegas and her kids will continue in the next System Update Timeline with additional foes and challenges early on to guide the Omegas into a less destructive path of protection.The Omnipocalypse was every apocalypse humans ever imagined all happening at once, zombies, plagues, nukes, EMPs, Robot uprisings. Not just the earth either, It happened to every World ever dreamed up by men too: heaven, hell, and every other afterlife or spirit world ended, plus the worlds of books and stories bled into reality. It all broke apart and either; became new places on the chaotic Earth or part of the even messier spirit world. Magic beasts mutated by radiation, Robots mastering Magic, the mixture of everything made the horrors... well, more horrible. Omega; A young Woman with few memories wakes to find she has spent 2500 years in stasis, in a basement of scientific horrors. Creatures and Things that could supposedly destroy the world if ever let free. Horrors of which she was the last to get free. Rather then Quest for world domination or destruction; Omega keeps getting drawn into a protective role over other orphans, lost monsters, and broken AIs. So she decides to build something to help all her little monster family be safe. -------This story is meant to be a behind the scenes look at stories about kids solving problems that should be beyond them. I always wanted to see a story about Professor Oak, Dumbledore, or any other mentor who trains the main characters. I like the idea of someone looking at the apocalyptic world and deciding to make it safe enough that a small child can wander off and make some monster their pet. The pokemon games have fun systems to consider the behind the scenes workings of, like what training a team rocket member goes through to become a villain cut out for children to defeat. how they prevent a deific pokemon from accidentally murdering some little rat with its immense psionic power. However, the story itself is not really meant to be a pokemon parody, I draw inspiration from every genre of fiction, any type of game, this story is the only one I plan of ever writing without a clear cut ending planned, I love the infinite storytelling capacity of things like Doctor who's TARDIS, the Stargate or Rick's portal gun. In this case, I wanted the setting itself to be one where any and every story might happen. Cover Image by kalli gruen from Pixabay Discord Image by Digital Photo and Design DigiPD.com from Pixabay

8 219God Slaying System
Issac was known to be one of the strongest players of Blue Sky City. During the initial stages of the start of The Heavenly Domain, he had already gained a lot of power and was going to become even stronger then the guild leader. But, he was betrayed by the guild leader as he feared he would be more powerful then himself and was killed until he got back to level 0. Heck, they even stripped him of his 'Sword of Heroes' that he got from completing the Diamond Ranked quest and took it away. After all that, he was banished from the guild left with nothing. Now, he could not even compete for being strong as he was. That was the time he found the God Slayer Temple. After this encounter, he was no longer the same as before. The main point is that I got the inspiration to write this novel by reading the novel “Reincarnation of The Strongest Sword God”. So, you may find some minor similarities but, well the story is completely different and the ideas are mine. So, enjoy reading my novel. This novel is also available on Webnovel under the same name. The updates on the novel are a bit faster there.
