《Phoenix dayz》New lease on life 1
Advertisement
Unwilling to dwell on the darkness of the past it was easy to jump into the material in front of me. Inside of my head was a cluttered desk a few hampers full of notes and a trash bin. Ontop of everything on the desk. Was a notebook the seemed to draw my attention. "Man your minds a mess little bro. Eldest started caughing up a lunge. And its hella smoky in here. You Need to clean this up little brother." Instead of paying attention to eldest catching contact I picked up the book in front of me. Inside of it was a simple list of names and abilities easy to read they even contained handy discriptions Looking smug and chipper at the same time eldest Hovered infront of my face. Only woobling every once in a while. Truly contacted "That my boy is your first grimior At little basic but give it time. We all have to grow. It comes with big words and pictures. It's relative easy to understand even for intelligenced challenged people like you. Oh burn!" He was really feeling himself right now. Shoving him out the way i gave him a stern look. "Hey, dont look at me like that im your brother someones gotta tease you. Its makes the skin thick. Added bonus the pictures even moved." Ignoring his bull and focusing in on my homework. I could see a short list of spells I could also see a small pool of abilities Fireball- a small ball of fire, the heat is intense. The ball forms quickly. Pretty basic D- Flame strike -glimmer of flame coates your hand or whatever your holding, causes sever burns on contact. Meh E+? (Do grades go that low?) Fire servant- mostly useless. But can perceive what you need it to do without you giving it orders...otherwise mostly mindless. Can be upgraded or combined with other spells to make more usefull, upgrade or evolve. Low enchantment- will ÷ intent can form long lasting special effects on gear and items. Spell combine- combine spells to create new spells Spell alteration- can alter all fire spells although cost of use and mileage of use will vary. Flame body- your body is for now more flesh than flame. Imagine a small furnice while fires burn in it you can use magic and abilities. Once its dry it needs fuel. Either eat and rest. (Duh) Burn your body as fuel which will first burn stamina, Then straight most likely leading to death. (Use At own risk) Lastly subjugate someone's else flames or conquer foreign fires. In your element- against opponents who either control fire or understand it to a lesser degree than you. Will have thier fires subjugated. Fires not as hot as yours will heal instead of burn. The Subjugation of fires not your own Or the subsequent event that someone uses lesser flames against you will kindle your flames. Greater flames will still hurt just not kill you. Allowing you to at least struggle to subjugate them Whoa. I was actually impressed. But a little lost. The pictures really did move. I was now well inform on the how to aspects. But to be honest i still didnt get. I turn to Eldest who was for whatever reason riffling throughout the shit i kept in my head. feeling my gaze on his back He turned to me wearing heavy jewelry, shades. A hat and holding a glass of pink drink. I slapped my face. Oh eldest brother of mine? how does this magick thing work. I mean i know how it works but whats the secret behind why does it work? I dont really seem to have to do anything? Your doing something. Certain parts just aren't parts arent visible. Your using will power and intent To trigger preprogrammed events. basically the body you have now contains energies and innate formulae that predetermine how your magick and abilities run or play out. You dont have to know the ins and outs. Just that it works and some of how it works. Not why it works. Your magickal now bit-bro! Everything in do time. Feeling consoled. Although he looked ridiculous trying to dance and lecture me at the same time. Breathing in deeply and focusing. So this was simply. I just had to intend and will it to work and it would. I didnt have to build or guide anything. Just familiarize myself with each spell and how much of my firepower it could cost to use. Simple. Fuck it. It was time to took a stance And started.

Unliving
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon, November 2021] For the longest time, Aideen Fiachna had only one prescient wish; to be the daughter her parents could take pride in. The idea was a tall order, especially as her father stood at the head of the Templar order, and her grandfather as the Pope. However, she endeavored to try nonetheless. Yet fate had a different path in store for her. For all her efforts, all her best laid plans, were but the broken off crumbs of 'one day'. That day, she was brutally slain by a vile, accursed undead being. Though, not even restful eternity awaited her in death. She awakened inside a coffin. Her coffin. During her own funeral wake. Discovering, to her horror, that she had risen. Not somehow resurrected, no, but back in the form of that most hated of beings--the curse of undeath. What will fate deal her next? Chapters will range from 1-2.5k words, scheduled for release every day from Monday to Friday. --------------------------------------- Expect: -Character progression in a journey of self discovery that spanned the ages -World building -Tragedy and Comedy in roughly equal measures -Occasional action Do not expect: -Much in terms of romance -Politics, barring passing views and mentions -A lighthearted tale. This story will be a good bit grimmer than my previous one Any comments, reviews, and criticism will be much appreciated. And thank you for reading. --------------------------------------- Disclaimer: This story is my original work and only posted on the Royal Road website. If you should find this story elsewhere or under another name, please let me know. Also please don't be too hard on me when I make occasional grammatical mistakes, English is my third language after all. XD Edit suggestions are very welcome though.

Aiming to update Monday and Friday! Cover art by the amazing Kailey!Twitter @kbearart Full-size cover here.Full banner pic here. Gore tag for some somewhat graphic fight scenes. Profanity tag because there may be some explicit language, it shouldn't be excessive.
8 252Novos Hitchhiker
Meet the mysterious being that has given itself the name Novos. Once an unfortunate reincarnating spirit on Earth, it has now wandered onto a new world full of magic and monsters. Unlike its previous incarnations on Earth, this time it has awakened, with a jumbled collection of its previous memories of Earth, inside the body of Celestine, a girl with no special powers or distinguishing traits whatsoever. Novos is a hitchhiker, sharing the body with the young girl. Along for the ride, but able to take the wheel when needed. This is the story of Celestine's life as witnessed and influenced by the presence of the foreign spirit. Note: This is a rewrite of a previously submitted fiction I posted here. I rewrote it for NaNoWriMo from memory. Feel free to read what I previously wrote, but significant elements have changed. I am leaving that iteration of the story up un-edited for future reference and for anyone curious.
8 141Demon Dungeon
It's a story about a demon that owns a dungeon. The dungeon has a core. The demon is a low-ranking member of an army. Expect a fun story, way too long chapters, and a mildly emotional demon.
8 132My Little Abomination
The My Little Abomination books are a series of grimoires designed to contain the any insanity-inducingly cute creatures called as Baby Eldritch Abominations. Nobody knows where the books come from but DAMN, THOSE THINGS ARE CUTE. And for some reason, once it had sealed something in it, a complete care manual is magically written... But why? Because, plot! I dont really care about my readers so I'm pasting this unedited. Well, have fun eating my shit~! I colored the illustration on my cover but the drawing was picked up by OutOfThis. I LOVE YOU, WEEEEIII!!! I WOULD LOVE IF YOU LAY MY EGGS FOR ME! And who is this Wei? Some person from Inked. Ah, don't get triggered on this novel because besides from posting them unedited, I did the chapters in 30 mins! I spend the other 30 min being distracted as I write author's notes. This series also parodies many things, mainly Pokémon and has tentacle rape undertones, viewer discretion is adviced...
