《Evolution of the Skeleton who walked alone in a Dungeon》Chapter 0047{I Am God}
Advertisement
On the dusty road, I could see people lying on the street, some were missing an arm, some were missing a leg, there were small houses, made of wood and clothes, few were gathered discussing their life when they were former soldiers,
As the gazes were focused on us, it made the twins felt uncomfortable, one of them said, “Are we just going to keep walking, or are you going do something?”
“I already did.”
From the slums, we went to the hills, from the hills, we could see the slums below us
“Wait, are those your footsteps, how could your footsteps still remain so clear?”
“You said you wanted to spread your beliefs of god right, let me help you, now everyone is going to believe in God, but the God they believe in will be me.”
[Initiating Mass Telepathy]
[You Voice Will be transmitted to everyone under your Vision]
Everyone suddenly heard a voice inside their head, they did not know where the voice came from,
The footsteps, I had left behind began glowing, From the light, plants began to grow, the plants became a tree, the tree bore many fruits.
[Mass Telepathy Completed]
The people did not understand what had happened, but suddenly when they saw a tree with fruits grow, in front of them, they were filled with tears, as the people who starved every day, would finally have gotten something to enjoy,
People marched toward the tree, plucked the fruits and ate, after eating their hunger disappeared, their wounds began to heal, the old began to regain their youth.
The tree was not so very tall, so, anyone could pick up the fruits, those who did not have legs crawled towards the tree, and ate the ones that had fallen down.
People exclaimed in extreme joy, “Gods have blessed us”, “Gods have rewarded us”, “Gods have blessed us.”

I looked from above, “How simple, just lie with few tricks, and everyone believes you are a god.”
“You, how did you do that? To give them back their youths? To heal their wounds, even regrow their lost limbs? That’s something…...”
“Only a real god could do? Don’t be foolish the fruits they are eating are the cursed scarlet fruit of youth.”
“Cursed?”
“The ones who eat the fruit have all of their wounds healed, and even regain their youth, but it comes at the cost of their lifespan, after eating the fruit how much longer they would survive depending on their remaining lifespan would be little. Those people were barely alive in the first place, now that they have eaten the fruit, they should be alive for at least 2 weeks.”
“At least I gave a few days of happiness before their deaths.”
“But what purpose did it even serve?”
“What do you think will happen when the rumors spread about how there are trees that bear fruits which can heal any wounds and give people their youth back in the slums?”
After thinking, Alva replied, “The nobles would try to take it for themselves”
“Yes, but it won’t be easy, most of the strong soldiers have been sent to war, the nobles have only a few strong on their side right now, and in the slums, they are many former soldiers some were even strong once, and now they have regained their ability to fight.”
“Also, the once a person tastes that fruit nothing else would satisfy him/her anymore, the fruit will grow indefinitely but do you think the people in the slums will share it with anyone else? soon there, will be chaos within the city.”
“Wow, but can we go have some food now?”

“No, now we head to a brothel.”
“What? How could we? We are the worshippers of God; how could we head in such an unholy place?”
“Unholy? How childish, Brothel is a place filled with lust, I am going to help them spread it, even more, add a bit of more chaos.”
We, headed to a brothel, opening a brothel was common and legal in this place, and the brothel was pretty popular
They hesitated to enter, their face was red, Delvin said, “I don’t think the women should enter here, let’s just two of us go inside.”
“No, they need to enter, Afterall I plan to sell them here.”
The twins got surprised, Delvin got angry and grabbed my collar, “How dare you.”
“Calm down, I won’t sell them for real, I will just use it as an excuse to meet the owner of this place.”
“Oh,”
We entered the place, the inside was large there were many rooms, there was a fragrant seducing smell in the air, a woman gently greeted us.
“What kind of pleasure would you like to have sir.”
“I am not here for pleasure, I am here to sell my slaves”, I pointed at the twins saying that.
“Ahh, I see, our master doesn’t see just but anyone, but the quality of the goods seems very high, so, let me arrange a meeting for you to negotiate with my master.”
That went more smoothly than I thought
One of the twins grabbed my hand, “You are really not going to sell us right”, They seem to have been scared even though I had already denied it once.
I replied with a gentle smile, “Of course not.”
“Sir, now if you would please follow me.”
The women lead us a room, the room had various painting, candles were lit, the fire was maintained using magic stones, and the master of the brothel in front was a woman, she was in her early 30s, she had seductive looks with red hair and red eyes,

Law of Shadows
Mercs are causing trouble in my city. They are hunting someone, whatever the cost. It’s not like I care that some lowly humans died, but if I don’t act now it would set a bad example. So what would the hero do? Probably he would save the victims and protect them while the enemies keep coming…Yeah, as if I would ever do something so troublesome! They aren’t calling me the demon lord for no reason. I suppose I’ll just shoot the victim and be done with it.

Both sides take to the battlefield with human soldiers, robots, and the powerful Augmented Samurai -- cyborg warriors who do battle by plugging into six-meter-tall mecha.Hard sci-fi samuraipunk action!Posting schedule will be slightly faster in the early chapters as I have most of them ready to go. Later chapters will take more time. That said, the outline is written and finished. I imagine the full work will top 50,000 words.Please note: The first 9000 words of this work were posted recently on Patreon (free) as part of a 30-day writing challenge. The work that will appear here will be complete and may differ in editing and chapter order. IMAGE SOURCE: Illustration 171244302 © Grandfailure | Dreamstime.com (Paid)
8 202The Princess And Her Warmonger
"Let me tell you a true story about a mouse and a Warmonger, and the unlikely relationship that sprouted between them in the time of endless war." Nostalisk is a world in endless constant war. The Factions of this world endlessly fight for power, this fighting called the Great Wars, a war that has been alive for over four million years. Currently, one of the largest Factions has withdrawn from the endless fighting. This Faction, known as the Kingdom, hopes to forget their past of endless bloodshed and how they were almost destroyed because of it. In the Kingdom, Princess Isalene, the only princess of the Kingdom, is stuck choosing a new personal guard after her previous one died. Despite her father, King Robert, helping her choose a new guard, Isalene decides to head to the arena to see how the knights on the list her father gave her act outside of the eyes of royals. When she arrives at the arena, she sees a knight fighting that is not on the list her father gave her. Named Cruel Knight, this knight is a vicious knight with confusing morals. Despite hating violence, Princess Isalene can't help but be drawn to the knight and their graceful yet cruel fighting style and strange weapons. Princess Isalene continues to watch them and soon learns that Cruel Knight is a Warmonger named Sharia, and is female at that, meaning she is a prisoner. She isn't in there for something simple as disobeying a direct order or killing a noble, but for prolonging a war. Despite knowing this, Princess Isalene can't stop thinking about the Warmonger and suddenly gets a "smart" idea. She'll make Sharia her new personal guard to find out more about her! What could go wrong? And so begins the odd relationship between Sharia The Warmonger and Princess Isalene. One is a peace-loving sheltered naive princess who hates violence and the other is a vicious, cold, twisted, and cruel Warmonger who hates the kind of peace Isalene and the current Kingdom loves. Polar opposites. Yet, even the Warmonger can't help but grow a strange liking to her new "annoyance". But, can the two really get along? After all, Sharia's whole mindset sees Isalene as a waste, and it seems that everyone Isalene talks to tells her to fire Sharia before something terrible happens. But, then again, during this time of budding danger, this odd couple may be what the Kingdom needs. After all, when a large faction such as the Kingdom starts growing soft and weak, they become a rather irresistible target. [After thinking on it, I decided to start a re-write of The Princess And Her Warmonger, adding more details, fixing the switching POVs somewhat, and fixing some of the issues with the story. Don't worry, all of the chapters are still here, I am just making new ones and replacing the old chapters one at a time] (This story can also be found on Scribble Hub and Webnovel) [Cover art is not mine]
