《Heir of the Divine Phoenix》28. Dungeon [5]
Advertisement
In the eyes of the six students, including Luar, Alex and Diana terrified eyes, they saw a completely different Feuer, the usual gentle gaze he has disappeared, his kindness towards everyone that isn't his enemy wasn't there anymore, his eyes, that were glowing golden in pure fury before had now a tinge of black.
What his friends were terrified wasn't his cruel actions, they understood what would happen if Feuer didn't come, the two girls would suffer a destiny worse than death, they were terrified, thinking that Feuer went through the non-orthodox, dangerous way of being a magician or cultivator, the so-called Dark Magician and Evil Cultivator respectively.
However, the six of them stared silently as Feuer slowly approached the many Cold Goblins in front of him and made exactly 25 small flames before forcing the Cold Goblins to ''swallow'' it, being adapted to Ice element and due to the fact that the flames had a temperature higher than what they could endure, the Flame slowly started to burn them from their insides as they screamed in pain.
The Cold Goblins behind them struggled inwardly as they saw the fate of the ones in front of them, alas, they were unable to move even a bit, however, this didn't end on that as Feuer smile widened after seeing the Cold Goblins suffering, he used his Dark Element to create a [Dark Claw] as it covered his hands before turning into a claw made of Darkness.
Then, Feuer opened a wound on each of the Cold Goblins, seeing that their suffering would only increase, all of the Cold Goblins eyes lost light, they felt complete despair, Feuer didn't felt it was enjoyable anymore after seeing they didn't have a reaction, he mumbled in annoyance ''When it's to torture others, you laugh and smile but when it's your time, you're all such cowards, hm?''

Annoyed, Feuer raised his hand slightly as Light Element condensed on a single, small sphere above his palm before shooting towards many directions and cutting the head of all Cold Goblins, Luar, Alex, Diana and looked stoic towards the decapitated, dead Cold Goblins, different from the two others, that vomited, by now, Feuer's eyes had returned to its usual beautiful silver.
No trace of fury could be felt anymore, Luar approached Feuer and tried to hug the latter ''You must have been really angered, buddy, to think you went to such extent just to save me!'' some tears fell down his face but Feuer ignored him completely ''Oy!'' Luar shouted in frustration since his fake tears were discovered.
Feuer then approached Alex ''The Instructor is with the remaining 17 students, let's go, I'm sure he has a way to get out of the Dungeon, it isn't safe for us through that Tier 2 Dungeon, I don't know what happened but this is suspicious...'' he said in a low tone while narrowing his eyes slightly, feeling something was wrong for the Dungeon, that was classified as Tier 1 to suddenly become Tier 2.
'I see, so he's saying that to me because as the son of the King, even if it is the Lyn Young Leader, he has to obey me due to my status and strength...' Alex thought before saying ''Ahem, we all realized that the Dungeon became dangerous and that there's something wrong with it, we should return to the rest of the students and the Instructor, he probably has something that will make us leave that Dungeon!''
The two students, David Lyn and Luar thought for a bit before nodding, Diana, however, nodded at the same instant while glaring at Feuer, she seemed to be in deep thoughts but she was actually thinking 'What is this sensation?' as she felt a different, strange and unknown emotion inside her.

Diana felt her heart kept beating when she remembered how the usual kind Feuer became merciless and cruel only to save them, how his eyes glowed in a golden-color, his smile, his beautiful dark golden-colored hair shining as he killed the Shaman and the rest of the Cold Goblins, she felt as if there were butterflies in her stomach 'This is too strange, I'll ask dad about that weird sensation when I go home!' she thought to herself while feeling confused, it seems a certain overprotective dad didn't teach her about certain things, poor dad, will have a surprise.
David Lyn narrowed his eyes as he silently thought while following everyone back to the rest of the students and the Instructor 'It seems that Feuer Flake is a good friend with the First Prince, which mean he also probably has a good relationship with the King, my father and my decision of stopping relations with the Vind Clan was certainly a perfect hit...' he nodded to himself as they finally arrived on the location Feuer and the Instructor along with the rest of the students had agreed to meet.
Feuer didn't want to talk for now, he was thinking about what he did on the Cold Goblins Village, Alex understood that his friend was in deep thought and decided to talk on his behalf
''When Feuer arrived, we were surrounded by many, many Goblins, they were different, though, Feuer named them 'Cold Goblins', cool name by the way, uh, anyway, it was a Village made by them and there was a Shaman commanding them, he wasn't very strong, though, Feuer killed him easily and to save us, killed the rest of the Cold Goblins!'' Alex said while omitting the fact that his friend tortured the Cold Goblins as not to disrupt Feuer's reputation, that is actually very good through the entire Aurora Academy, no, the entire Kingdom.
The Instructor nodded before saying ''I have a thing called 'Return Stone', it allows the user to return from a Dungeon of its level, which in our case is a Tier 2 one, back to our world, the Dean gave the exact amount for all of us, now, everyone, each one can pick only one!''
Everyone got a 'Return Stone', the Instructor then said ''You just inject your Mana inside it!'' before disappearing, they nodded as they also injected Mana on the 'Return Stone'.
Feuer was the last to leave as he concluded 'Killing... it was unfamiliar to me whether I liked or not, now, I can conclude... I don't only like it... I enjoy it...' a wild smile appeared on his face before he organized his thoughts and emotions, he returned to his normal self before injecting Mana on the 'Return Stone' as the scene around him changed once again, he was back on the normal world.

It Started with Slime
Before we jump in, let me say that the MC starts stupid, so the language and writing style is straightforward to reflect this. The writing improves with the MC and as the chapters progress (I hope). It is also a gradual growth story, so no zero to hero in ten seconds... with that out of the way: An alchemical experiment has gone wrong and results in a Slime Monster. It doesn't have a name at first and is something that it will need to work out! This story follows a Slime that starts as a Micro Slime with some level of consciousness, and there is more to it than meets the eye. Survival is the name of the game. To improve, it works hard to grow, evolve and become more powerful to survive its harsh new reality. There is a lot more going, and only time will tell if this Slime (all its various versions) can become strong enough to make it through the strife to the other side. It's a harsh world, after all. It Started with Slime is a story with a Monster Protagonist Evolution story. There will be no profanity and no sexual content, and there will be some violence and fighting descriptions. I am a native English speaker, and so the English here should be to a good standard. That said, even though editing, there may be some corrections and typos, so if you see some, let me know! If it bothers you a lot, I am working to make sure all chapters have no typos, but of course, some might slip through. I will endeavour to correct any picked up, though! Also, I started this a few months ago and so any feedback is always appreciated, also reviews and ratings! If you like or don't like the story, let me know in the detailed reviews! That always helps me see what is good and what needs improving. Working on releasing chapters twice a week, I will try to increase that as time goes, but at the moment, that is what I can release. Patreon has more. If the story gets more popular, then I will increase the releases. I am aiming ultimately for a chapter a day if I can get to that. Chapters are roughly 1500 words, with Interludes every five chapters being more or less than that! Enjoy! Edit: Book 1 finished on Patreon, and the format for Book 2 is slightly different with Interludes every three chapters, and the release schedule will be three chapters a week. Cover by: Faren Discord: https://discord.gg/eDuZaEAAqG This story is published and available on Royalroad, Webnovel, ScribbleHub, Wattpad, and extra chapters on Patreon!

Hollow Moon
She doesn't like being told what to do. He knows what’s best for her. She is fiercely independent but he is determined to save her, whether she likes it or not. Del and Nyssa live two very different lives and that’s the way Nyssa likes it. She is beholden to no one so when Del comes knocking on her door, she sends him on his way with a wink and a sarcastic “yeah, right.” When that doesn’t work, she bolts. She just wants to live her normal life; gambling with fairies (the not-so-nice kind), befriending ghouls and painting the future all over the whitewash. No boy is going to get in the way of that. Excerpt: He snagged her wrist gently before she could flounce away, his fingers warm and firm. “You need to come with me, girl,” he said earnestly. “I don't need to do anything.” She was indignant. She knew that sometimes her kind of abilities could be unruly but Nyssa was quite capable of taking care of herself. She’d lived with her abilities since she was thirteen. She’d learned to handle them herself. “It’s dangerous for you to be on your own,” Del said, tightening his grip on her wrist. She pulled her arm from his grip and he let her go. He could force her to go with him, she knew, but he wouldn’t. “I don’t need your help, Superman.” She didn’t look at him. “I’ll be back in a week,” he said, ignoring her protests. “Be ready to leave with me.” He breezed past her, discarding the necklaces he still held on the desk and leaving. Nyssa sighed, watching his back as he disappeared down the street. “Fat chance, Superman.”

A Goblin's Blade (dropped)
He looked down the path, which was littered with many things. Things he found in abundance were such of violence, desire and gore while things he found in scarcity were such of love, friendship and glory. At the start of the path was a naive, green goblin while at the end of it... Well at the end of it stood him: the godslayer, the monster from the forest, the walking death... He had many names but none so that perfectly captured his image as well as the Mad King. Authors note: Edit: Trying to release a chapter per day, around 2-2.5k words each. An evolution story about a goblin. This is under lit-rpg but I'm focusing more on the plot/characters instead of the usual features of such stories such as the blue tables that take ages to make or the stat screens. In essence it's closer to high fantasy than lit-rpg. Much appreciated if you read the Prologue to see whether you like it or not. Cover image is "Evolution" taken from art done by WhoAmI01
