《A Short story collection》The detective

The man walked along the rainy and muddled streets paying no attention to the rain that bounced off his trenchcoat and hat nodding to the peacekeepers as he went. His pistol was in a hidden side holster and his rifle cleverly hidden using a type of molding technology it was expensive sure notoriously So, but it was worth it for the Private investigator. His phone rang and he ducked into an alleyway before answering it "Hello?" I Asked smoothly "meet at 5th street Newark doesn't Be Late" I ducked out of the alleyway and headed to the garage with a sigh my eyes darting the rooftops looking for snipers I reached the garage before heading to my bike and pressing the button to start it up and it roared to life as I zoomed toward the avenue as my hand brushed my hidden sidearm I pulled over putting my Bluetooth earpiece and continuing on my way before pulling over my bike once again and walking the rest of the way there. My phone rang and I pressed the earpiece "good, good you're here take a left there should be a man in a black su" his voice was cut off very suddenly then three things happened at once I rolled to the floor as guns began to open up from everywhere and the man returned "I was not expecting this either" "no shit" i growled pushing myself up as i pulled myself behind a tree. I tapped a button on my trenchcoat and my gun seeped forming itself in my hands.I cocked it and started firing it shattering the windows as people finally began to run and a black limo began to make its way towards me "that one of your guys?"I asked the man on the other end. "No why?" the Limo rolled passed me. The guns started opening up again. I hadn't noticed they stopped. "Right two on the balcony 3 on the 3rd floor and all look like they have heavy armament" I muttered before running from tree to tree. I ducked behind a concrete barrier. my rifle was in range and I let loose firing at the men on the balcony and they dropped like rocks. I grinned and fired at the third-floor windows watching as all three of the men took hits and I cursed "Shit time to switch AP" I put a round in each of them causing them to stagger before I fired off a burst at the men getting one down before I heard sirens and military humvee pulled in front of me as the bullets peppered the glass "Get in" I hopped in pressing a button on my rifle and it molded back into my trench coat."Who the hell are you" I knew that voice it was the man who I was working with "that doesn't matter right now" We pulled Up to the garrison and I got out "ID" the soldier groused I handed it to him "seems in order you and your friend are clear to go" I nodded and hopped back in the Humvee as we drove In and we both got out again. I nodded at the man as we went to the control tower. "Hello again shadow" sitting across from me was a man with back turned to me he swung his body around to reveal a scarred face and the red eyes of a man I thought dead.

The Merchant Prince Book 1: Returning Home
Enter a world of deceit and assassins. Augustus DeCastellian is a member of a wealthy merchant family, with ports all over the known world. He is sent on a voyage to new lands to open trade routes, but when he returns he will need to fight, using his tools of manipulation and cunning, for what he is owed.Author's note: This story is somewhat slow-paced, especially in comparison to the norm on Royal Road. The first three chapters act almost as a prologue, to give you a feel for what the rest of the story will be like. So, I suggest new readers try to get to the end of chapter 3 before deciding if this story is for them.A few of my reviews have said that this story is abnormal for Royal Road. I agree with that sentiment, at least based on what I've read on the site. It was just an idea that was in my head, that I began trying to write once my hobbies were cancelled due to the virus. I found Royal Road after I started writing it. Honestly, it's probably not even tailored for the web-novel format. But it's the story I wanted to tell. Discord: https://discord.gg/sk63gep

Borne of Desire
A man given a new lease on life finds himself amongst pokemon. From his memories of pokemon as a whole, he assumes the power of pokemon and the world around him runs on convenient fate, rule of cool, and cheesy friendship just like any other anime. Unfortunately for everyone else, he's 100% right. NOTE: If Borne of Caution is an attempt at a coherent and realistic look at pokemon, then, Borne of Desire is the opposite. It's all the mindless indulgence I DONT want in a serious story. It's a very seat-of-my-pants for-fun project and is written with no storyboard. Updates will be inconsistent and quality cannot be assured. Not to be taken too seriously.

Who is this human in her visions? Will Riva ever reclaim her past and secure a future?... Thousands of years ago wild dungeons appeared out of nowhere and conquered the world. Armies could not hold back the infinite hordes of spawned monsters. The sapient races barely eked out survival in the corners of the world. Only the infighting between the savage dungeons allowed the sentient races to outlive these dark ages. Out of this struggle, adventurers were forged. By conquering weaker dungeons, adventurers discovered how to capture life energy to perform great feats of strength and create magic. Now, as adventurers pushed back dungeons, population boomed again. But with rising numbers comes new factions, greed, and war. Caught among these powerhouses lies Riva. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________ On hiatus for the foreseeable future. I finished the first arc, improved my writing a lot, and learned I want to write from a humanoid perspective. Currently building up chapters for new series.

Monster? So be it,
Generic Monster Isekai story. Guy dies, meets a god, the entity says that he is willing to reincarnate him to a new world as a new creature, etc etc. The protagonist is an established serial killer on his past life so I'll probably make a grimdark setting or something. Idk
