《The subtle World of Terraria》2-11. Preparation
Advertisement
*Evan POV*
[Anyone in his sight Will die.] (Me)
I made a grim face before thinking it through and putting my hand back on my chin.
[But I'm not sure.] (Me)
In the early versions of Terraria, when it first came out years ago, like always, you can only start the fight during night time but if you couldn’t kill him before daytime then the eye of Cthulhu would perform an instant kill attack on all players alive before de-spawning. This was removed in the later version but I don’t know if the eye of Cthulhu would do that here.
[Huh?] (Liza)
This world, does match with Terraria a lot. But there are a lot of reasons why this place isn't Terraria. Me just talking to Liza means I'm not in Terraria. And then there were skills, statuses, even my own crafting list got updated.
[Evan?] (Liza)
There's also a huge possibility that they are summoning something from this world and not from Terraria.
[Evan!] (Liza)
[Huh? What?] (Me)
My hand left my chin when she called me. I think she was trying to call me but I was too busy with my thoughts.
[Why aren't you sure?] (Liza)
[That's because-] (Me)
Wait a minute. Lenard admitted to all my ways of summoning. That means I might be right. I'm just missing something.
[Wait, Liza what did he say right before collapsing?] (Me)
[Hm? It was that they will start even without him right?] (Liza)
[No, after that.] (Me)
[Something about the Cthulhu watching over them?] (Liza)
I remembered exactly what he said.
“-Cthulhu will watch over us and most certainly watch over you!”
THE ANSWER WAS SO EASY!!!
[ITS THE FLIPPEN EYE OF CTHULHU! There’re no other parts of Cthulhu can watch over anyone!] (Me)
Even the game can back me up on this because, until you have killed the eye of Cthulhu even once then there is a random chance of you receiving the “You feel an evil presence watching you” message before he spawns. So I’m 99% sure they’re trying to summon him.
I don't even know why that took a while to solve. That was pretty simple now that I think about it.
[How do you know all this?] (Liza)
Liza stared at me
...........I didn't really think she would ask that.
What should I say? That I used to play this world tons of time on my computer?
[Uhhhhhhhh............] (Me)
I was thinking of a way on how I could get myself out of this mess but Liza sighed.
[Well, if you don't want to tell then don't worry. I won't pry.] (Liza)
I made a relieved face.
[........Thanks.] (me)
[So, what do we do now?] (Liza)
I put my hand on my chin again.
[Let's see.......... The eye of Cthulhu can only be summoned my making… well, "a weird looking eye" at a demon altar using lens from that you can get from demon eyes. So that's our only clue, Lens.] (Me)
[Lens? there isn't any demand of lens and also there aren't any missions about it submitted here too.] (Liza)
[Well, we can either evacuate everyo-] (Me)
Liza quickly interrupted me.
[What if it’s not here?] (Liza)
Advertisement
[Huh?] (Me)
[There are more adventurer guilds in other kingdoms. I can inform them of this threat and they can look out for any lens in demand. Or anything similar to it.] (Liza)
Wait hold on, how many kingdoms are there?
Ah well, I'll think about that after I take care of this.
[Okay, you do that. Also put up a warning about these cultists or something.] (Me)
Liza nodded.
[Alright.] (Liza)
[I'm going to check up on Luna.] (Me)
[What about him?] (Liza)
Liza pointed to Lennard.
[We'll see if he has more info, so keep him here for now or someplace where you can easily interrogate him. He’s all yours so go wild.] (Me)
[Alright. I’ll check if he has anything on him that might lead us to his group.] (Liza)
Liza looked at Lenard and started to un-tie him before checking to see if he has anything of value/intel on him. I waved goodbye to Liza and started walking upstairs.
[Also Evan.] (Liza)
Liza stopped me midway up the stairs.
[Yea?] (Me)
[Be careful. I’ve seen many adventurers die. It always hurts to see that so don’t join them. ] (Liza)
I smiled and gave a thumbs up
[Sure will!] (Me)
I went to the 2nd floor cafeteria and I saw Luna gouging down some type of chicken leg. Lark was also sitting opposite to Luna and drinking something.
[Hey, how y'all doing?] (Me)
[Re-Reid! *Cough* *Cough*] (Luna.)
Luna choked on her food for a second.
[Chew slowly lil miss, your food ain’t gonna run away from ya. So, Evan, what did you found out?] (Lark)
I went and sat beside Luna
[Well, nothing much aside from a complete kingdom annihilating problem. You know, the usual things.] (Me)
I patted Luna head, unintentionally and she started blushing for some reason. Maybe I shouldn't do that.
[What?] (Lark)
He thought I was joking until I made a serious face and he finally understood what I said and freaked out.
[WAIT WHAT?!] (Lark)
[Lark, I wanted to ask this before but how much can a lesser healing potion sell for?] (Me)
I need money and I need it really badly.
[W-Wait. You're changing the topic! What do you mean Kingdom Annihilating Problem!?] (Lark)
I tilted my head in confusion.
[It's exactly what I mean though? The Cultists going to summon a giant monster from the sky that can cause a complete genocide easily. Now then about those potions.] (Me)
Lark was losing his mind and I kept being non-chalant about it. Honestly, It was hilarious to see that.
[What do we do then?] (Luna)
Luna sounded worried so let’s calm her down first.
[Don’t worry nothing will happen to the two of us.] (Me)
She seemed to have calmed down before she focused back on her food. Lark on the other hand was still losing his shit.
[I-If it's a Monster then it can be Killed right!?] (Lark)
[Yea but everyone here is too Weak.] (Me)
Assuming if everyone has the same fighting power as Lenard.
[T-Then what do we do?] (Lark)
[We get stronger. Now tell me how much can those potions be sold for and where.] (Me)

[You can ask Arnold about those things. I've never sold anything.] (Lark)
[Okay, Thanks.] (Me)
I stood up.
[I'll go up and give him a visit.] (Me)
[Hey, Evan.............. Just how strong is it?] (Lark)
[.......... It can cause a complete genocide. What do you think? But don't worry, I have a sure-fire plan.] (Me)
He nodded and I quickly went upstairs.
I have to start assuming that the Cultists are going to summon the eye of Cthulhu this night so I should prepare accordingly.
[Arnold! You there?] (Me)
I heard some clanking behind the back door before Arnold came out from it. He left the door open and I could see tons of metallic objects in there. Some I recognized some I didn’t.
[Oh it's teh rooke, how kan I help ya agen.] (Arnold)
[Look at this] (Me)
I placed a glass bottle on the table which had red liquid swirling inside it.
[It's a lesser healing potion. How much do you think this could be sold for?] (Me)
[A lasser healeng potion huh. Those are sold for fifteh selver coens.] (Arnold)
My jaw almost dislocated from surprise.
[Fifty!?! You said Fifty Right!?!] (Me)
[Woah! No need to be hestarical. Yes, thay are in high demend and would sell well.] (Arnold)
.......I'm about to get rich. But I only have a total of 4 at the moment.
[You can sell it to teh Gueld master. She's in always need of these.] (Arnold)
[Guild master?] (Me)
[Yeh, she comes here rarely tho. Alweys at the castel worken.] (Arnold)
[Alright, Thanks Arnold.] (Me)
I was about to leave but I saw a small glint in the opened door behind the counter.
Is that.....?
[Hey, Arnold what’s that?] (Me)
[Hm? Dat?] He went inside and brought a hand sized weird ball looking thing with 3 claws on it's end.
[I heve no idea what thes is. Been tryeng to fegure out fer qite a while but than laft it alone.]
IT'S A HOOK!!!!!!!
A FLIPPEN HOOK!!!!
With that I can make a Grappling Hook! A must-have for anything in Terraira. I CAN BECOME FLIPPEN SPIDERMAN!
[Can I take it!? No, I want it!] (Me)
[Hm? Sure. it's just collecten dust here aneyway. But why do yeh want it?] (Arnold)
Hm? Don't they have crafting list? Or is it that they have to unlock the hook recipe first? Oh well, not my problem.
I just want the hook and Become like Spider-Man!
[I just have an idea that might work.] (Me)
[Wall okay den, be safe.] (Arnold)
I excitedly grabbed it form his hands before walking downstairs.
Now then, we can either stop the cultists or kill the eye of Cthulhu...... Nah, I probably can't respawn like in the game, Probably. So, facing Eye of Cthulhu is the last option. Best to not take many risks but still prepare, just in case.
I headed back to where Luna and Lark was.
Let’s see. Firstly, I need armor and tons of different types of potions too. I also need tons of money too. But that can be solved by selling the potions.
The strategy to defeat the eye of Cthulhu is speed. The eye of Cthulhu can be killed just like that It’s quite weak and it has to bash itself onto you to deal damage. As long as I can evade that, I can win without even getting hit once.
Now it's best if we search for the cultists and stop them before the Eye of Cthulhu is summoned…
I came back to the 2nd floor and Luna was still eating something. While lark was nowhere to be seen.
… I should talk to Luna about Reid’s past since have the opportunity.
I went and sat opposite to Luna.
[Hey, Luna. you said you knew my past right? And if you’re a princess how come your here and not at a kingdom?] (Me)
Luna stopped eating and a heavy atmosphere instantly built itself around her. She started looking teary-eyed. And I immediately guessed that I shouldn't have asked that.
[That's because.......... They killed everyone......... Only a few of us remain now and I don't even know where everyone is.] (Luna)
Oh no. She was also having trouble talking about it too. Luna looked like she would cry any second now so I stood up and sat beside Luna and patted her head.
[You’re really brave, aren't you? To be facing all of these threats alone. But don't worry. I'm here now. So, don't be afraid] (Me)
She relaxed a bit.
Well I can make her stay at my house that won't be a problem, I can't bear watching a kid having to deal with all this killing nonsense. I just wonder who else would be left of my race and where they are.
The worst thing possible now is if I meet Reid’s relatives or family. That’s gonna suck ass. I’m not Reid, I only have his body. But I will take on Reid’s responsibilities for the time being. That’s a promise.
[Okay Luna you rest here I have some jobs to do outside.] (Me)
[N-No] (Luna)
Luna hugged me and wouldn't let go.
[Don't worry, I'll come back.] (Me)
[Y-You said that last time! And look at you now! you have amnesia!] (Luna)
[But I wasn't killed.] (Me)
Well, Reid probably did. But I didn't!
[N-No means NO! I'm the princess so listen to Me!] (Luna)
You're really gonna play that card huh.
[Listen, Luna. A large threat is coming here. And it can wipe out this entire kingdom if we didn't do something. I've already asked Liza to do what she can about others so now it's my turn. I need the power to survive.] (Me)
[T-Then I'm going with you! Last time you almost got hit by tons of arrows. If I wasn't there you would've become a porcupine!] (Luna)
Those animals exist here too? And what do mean that you saved me? We’re meeting for the first tim- Oh, she means Reid.
well... I mean it's easier to look after her when she's near me but....
If I get attacked, then I can't focus on the enemies and protect her at the same time.
Ugh, I can’t decide. Let’s leave it to Liza.
[Fine. But you need to ask Liza first.] (Me)
She sighed in relief.
[Alright] (Luna)
After that, we both went downstairs to Liza.....................

Exiled Aristocrat
Synopsis. The story follows Ronandt, a young nobleman who, despite his noble origins, has never met his parents. Except for maybe at the time of his birth.

Follow the adventures of Ronandt, a young nobleman like no other. This is a very slow-paced novel, so if you like slow character building and slow world-building, then this novel is for you. This is written in First Person PoV, but sometimes you'll find some chapter (generally extra-chapter) written in Third Person PoV. No OP mc, No Harem.

Mana Soul
Like many others across the multiverse, Markus was chosen as this world's hero to fight against the steadily approaching cataclysm. Only, something went horribly wrong. Left with only a handful of memories, Markus has spent years clawing his way up from poverty and officially registered as an adventurer to try and make his fortune. Unfortunately, Artificers are the least combat-capable class of the four classes, and Markus has no connections to join an established party. With the fate of countless worlds hanging in the balance, a chance meeting will determine the course of a war nearly as old as reality itself. Warning: Markus has trauma induced amnesia and will occasionally 'act out of character' or make 'poorly thought out' decisions. These events are rather obvously telegraphed abd represent conflicts between his current personality and the one repressed alongside his trauma. Just something to bear in mind.The story will bounce predominantly back and forth between the primary protagonists every couple of chapters. The time stream is linear, so events are not revisted/rehashed/retold through the narrative format. Characters may comment on something that has occurred, but that's different. Just giving a heads up.Chapters will be around 7-9k and updated 1/week on the same schedule as my other story Ogre Tyrant over the weekend.[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
