《I'm just an 'Ordinary' Human (MCU fanfic)》Volume 1 Chapter 5.1

On stage, Stark suddenly grabbed the mic and face the audience.
"You know the question I get asked most often is, 'Tony, how do you go to the bathroom in the suit?'" After he finished speaking, the sound of trickling water was heard. It was coming from inside of his suit. "Just like that."
Stark laughed loudly, while the audience laughed with him.
Just then, Ms. Potts finally arrived on the stage, taking the mic from him.
"Does this guy know how to throw a party or what?" Ms. Potts threw a clear sarcasm.
The audience cheered.
"I love you." Stark whispered.
"Aww. Unbelievable. Thank you so much. Tony, we all thank you so much for such a wonderful night. And we're gonna say good night now, and thank you all for coming…"
"No, no, no, we can't … Wait, wait, wait. We didn't have the cake. We didn't blow out the candles."
The couple whispered to each other, Ms. Potts trying to make Stark dismiss the party while Stark insists on continuing.
"Just send everybody home, okay? It's time to…"
"If you say so..."
"Okay? I'll take this, you take that." Ms. Potts said and took the beer bottle away from Stark's hand, while she gave the mic back to him.
Stark faced the audience.
"Pepper Potts. She's right. The party's over. Then again, the party was over for me, like, an hour and a half ago. The after-party starts in 15 minutes!" Stark loudly proclaimed, gaining the audience's cheers again. "And if anybody, Pepper, doesn't like it, there's the door."
After he finished speaking, he accidentally fired an energy blast towards the glass door, breaking it. The audience shouted louder.
Stark fired an energy blast towards the beer bottle a woman threw upwards. Needless to say, it shattered, sending sharp pieces all around. I shielded Lynn's eyes with my hands from some of the glass shrapnel that 'coincidentally' targeted her. This woman's luck was truly excellent.

In the corner of my eyes, I can see the black man that Ms. Potts talked to earlier heading downstairs.
Meanwhile, another woman appeared with a watermelon.
"I think she wants the Gallagher!"
A stronger energy blast came out from Stark's chest, blowing the melon into pieces.
The people cheered even more.
But suddenly, the black man I saw earlier came out with a similar Iron Man suit; the only difference was his was silver while Stark's painted in red and gold.
"I'm only gonna say this once." He looked around the audience with a commanding gaze. "Get out."
The audience scrambled to the door, including us, of course. Although Lynn wanted to stay, I forcefully dragged her out of the mansion while following the crowd. I know full well that those two would end up fighting, and Lynn staying there with her negative luck stats wasn't a good idea.
When we're outside, I quickly used [Clairvoyance]. This time, Lynn noticed the change in my eyes. So she pulled my sleeves, saying. "Hey, what is it? What is it? Let me see too!"
I had no choice but to share the [Clairvoyance] on her too, as she wouldn't stop bugging me until I do so. Thus, we watched Stark's fight with the black man, who he called Rhodey.
They fought in the gym, using the barbells to hit each other. They destroyed the equipment as they traded blows after blows. Eventually, they arrived on the floor we're at, just at the entrance of his mansion.
They resorted to dirty tricks, their fight quickly turning into a dog fight. Stark managed to briefly knock Rhodey out by smashing him to a counter.
He looked in our direction, where the audience had gathered.
"HraaAAaAHh!" Stark roared at the audience, making them flee out of fear.

Meanwhile, Lynn pulled me into a nearby plant, effectively hiding from plain sight. She then took out a camera out of nowhere.
After the people completely vanished, Rhodey suddenly stood up, grabbing a table in the process as he directly smashed it to Stark's naked back. Stark was thrown into the fireplace.
After recovering, Stark immediately raised his hand. Rhodey did the same.
"Put your hand down." Rhodey said.
"You think you got what it takes to wear that suit?"
"We don't have to do this, Tony."
"You wanna be the War Machine, take your shot."
Both of them refused to concede.
"Put it down!"
"You gonna take a shot?"
"Put it down!"
"No!"
Their gauntlets suddenly issued a screeching sound, the light building up.
"Drop it, Tony!"
"Take it!"
Then the energy blast met in the middle. It produced a beautiful circle blast that quickly became larger and finally creating a big explosion, blowing away both of them.
Meanwhile, my barrier magic repelled all the glass shards and debris that Lynn naturally attracted. And while the two wasn't looking, I swiftly pulled Lynn away and headed towards the limousine. She didn't resist this time, maybe because she already captured several good shots.
Our limousine then drove out of Stark's mansion. The birthday night ended in a way that no one could've possibly imagined.

Domhain: A Modern Fantasy LitRPG
(Blurb) When Ardan, a teenage elf boy, is thrown into the world- his world, of distrust and tension, he wants only one thing. To live a normal life, get a job, make friends, even start a family. But either dumb luck or fate won't leave him alone. With the power of a game system and magic, he's determined to find out the reason he was picked, and what makes him special. Along the way, hopefully meeting new friends and learning some magic here and there. (Synopsis) Domhain - a world split between five nations and five unique magical gifts; home of elves, dwarves, goblins, trolls, and humans, each of them so different but in reality more alike than anyone would like to acknowledge. Twenty years ago, the humans, weakest of the five, secretly acquired powerful magic and set out for war. The united forces of the other nations stood no chance. Humanity prevailed, proving itself as the new leader of the modern world. Now, Domhain is at peace but tensions are rising again. The humans want more than their territory back. They want it all. And they want revenge. But this time, the elves hide a dark power, and will stop at nothing to wipe the humans off Domhain forever. War is inevitable. Thousands will die. And the power to stop it all falls into the hands of none other than a particularly tall fifteen-year-old elf orphan. Ever since he could remember, Ardan lived a normal, sheltered, life in an elven orphanage. On the day he's finally able to leave for good and start his independent life, something strange occurs. He is given a pill, a gift, that turns his life into a game with levels, quests, dungeons, and a... talking weapon? All of which are capable of transforming his body and the world around him. As if that weren’t enough, Ardan learns the orphanage has hidden natural magic from him, and the whole world is intertwined with it. More importantly, he, as an elf, has a particularly unique and powerful heritage. That heritage, along with the benefits of his new power makes him a target for the greed of many... With nothing but his friends and a incredibly smart sister, he is determined to find out what makes him so special. Who can he trust?

8 199Legends of The Wesh: Lochley
The Universe is held together by something. It is an undisputable truth but nobody knows what that something is. People claim that it is connected by The Path of Legends, where Gods traversed trying to find the meaning of their own existence. Others claim that the universe is a Tree, connecting worlds with its extending branches and giving life-bearing fruits to its inhabitants. Several even claimed that the Universe is just a colony of ants, that this universe and the worlds in it are just as insignificant as insects. In one of the Worlds in it, the arrival of someone signaled great changes. Gods will die, Trees will Rot, Insects will burn. Those at the top had fallen and they will upend the worlds trying to claim what was theirs. Those at the bottom have had enough of scraps and they yearned to devour the fruits of the worlds. Those that were innocent and caught in between had no choice but to persist, lest they get erased by the surging tides. Nobody knows where will they end, but everybody knew where they started. They will not be judged, they will not be rebuked, they will not be curbed, they will not be vanquished. The universe is their canvas and it’s time — time to paint their truths upon it. Azrael was born as a prince in the warring world of Ost. Inheriting the title but not its privileges and oppressed by his siblings in every step of his life, he had no choice but to be subservient to their whims until circumstances spiraled him to the abyss, to a new world, and to more agreeable companions. But is he truly free from the past or will it continue to hound him to his new life? Elira had one wish… to be known more than as an offspring of the Great Phasol Family. Talented, hardworking, and stubborn, she struggled to break free from the influence of her family. Everything had been going well in her life but is she strong enough to resist the upheaval and truths of the world? William grew up in an orphanage with nothing to his name. Regaled by various tales of fantasy and greatness by his caretakers, he reached adulthood with the goal of having a legend of his own. Will he make his mark on the world or be forgotten like an ant; crushed by the boot of an unsuspecting traveler. The world of Lochley has been at peace for centuries and its undercurrents are growing restless from waiting… waiting for that spark of opportunity to ignite and swallow the world whole. Some will cause it, some will resist it, and some be drowned by it. Which one will you be?

8 182Adventures of one dude with an afro
...East-Blue, West-Blue, South-Blue, and North-Blue are the four seas that constitute most of the whole planet. Humanity is thriving on the small patches of land which poke out of the four seas. These four seas are separated horizontally by a humongous mountain which encircles the whole planet, called Red Line, and vertically by, the most dangerous sea known to man, Grand-Line. Both sides of Grand-Line are flanked by strips of the windless sea called Calm Belt. The eternally windless strips of sea are impossible to cross with only wind-powered ships. It might be calm over the water, but the water hides nasty beings called sea kings, not to be disturbed as the name suggests. People in this world can train themselves past any and all physical limits, only their mentality is the problem. A strong mind makes the body strong. Everyone in this world possesses this almost magical power in them called haki. There are three types of haki, two available to everyone and the last one is seen only once in seven million people. Different haki can be used to strengthen the body to even affect logia users, to predict and to foresee attacks, sense others’ prowess and even exert your will upon others. Fruits of the sea devil. Otherwise know as devil fruits, give miraculous powers to those who eat them, but robs them of their power to swim and makes them vulnerable to anything from normal seawater to the crystallized power of the sea, sea stone. Devil fruit powers are categorized into three different categories: Zoan type fruits allow their users to transform into an animal of a sort and gain their abilities. There are also human and mythical type zoans so they should actually be called transformation powers but those ones are extremely rare to the point of none existent that most just associate zoan transformations into animals. Logia fruits make their eaters become the element that the fruit was. For example, the one who eats the fire logia fruit is able to use fire in their attacks, become fire to avoid physical attacks and much else. Last but not least are the Paramecia fruits, these fruits are undoubtedly the weirdest and most random of the bunch. There are some that let you attract metal, make you slim and slippery, make your body able to split your body into many pieces, makes your body rubber, lets you control vibrations, light, pressure almost anything you can imagine. Lastly, there are two opposing factions in this world. The marines and the pirates, most strong people are part of either one. Both have their ups and downs. Pirates are free people who do whatever they want. Good or Bad. Marines are the upholders of justice in this world yet no justice system is without corruption. I closed the introductory book while frowning. "Isn't this a summary to the one piece world...?" The cover isn't mine and I am willing to take it down.
