《My Little Husky Assistant》Chapter 19: The Sentinel's Parade Part II
Advertisement
Medieval buildings and a stone castle crammed with urban buildings grew from the ground around the heptagon. The ground shook and it grumbled loudly as if there were an earthquake. The increasing of the building had come to a halt as they reached their maximum height. Huge horny veins grew longer from the base and engulfed almost every part for each building where plethora of exotic tropical flowers with various colours bloomed.
"Wowwwwwwwww!!!!!! Look at how amazing those buildings are!! They crammed together like an urban city crammed together with a medieval kingdom. Is this a utopia? A child's imagination? But these aren't hallucination, what you are witnessing now is concrete, solid!" The emcee exclaimed showing off a pose of inquisitiveness.
The aisle began to be wrapped with floral veins and solid tree trunks. Specks of light appeared from some flowers and burst out into seven fairies with pointed ears and orange-brown moth wings attached on their back. Their eyes were solid black.
"The factor behind these is beyond our expectation, who might this be?" Declaimed the emcee with an intriguing tone. "She who befriends the elemental, she who opposes the world's law of imagination, she herself is the imagination. She, who brought hallucination into the real world. She, who was born in Turkey with special abilities beyond the god's power. We are certain that she is-"
Continuous drum roll could be heard echoing as the emcee paused with a big grin on his face. He put down his microphone and positioned his sunglasses properly then stroked his spiky and shiny black hair.
"The Esper Sentinel, Era Fatmaaaaaa!!!!" The emcee shouted while facing the sky and pointed his index finger to the entrance.
Era floated out of the entrance and she glowed with bright amber fire which mimicked the colour of a yellow rose. She flew lower and her feet almost touched the floor on the aisle. An amber coloured skin woman with raging orange-coloured hair flew behind her with her white and brown moth wings. Her ears were long and pointed like an elf, light brown fur wrapped around her neck, her geometric golden crown covered her head and her black antennae stuck out from the root of her head. Her brilliant red leather dress was blown softly to the back.
The piles of crammed buildings and the horny veins on the aisle faded and vanished into glittering specks of tiny colourful lights as Era reached the heptagon. She walked further until she reached the 4th golden diamond shaped platform which glowed yellow as Era stepped on it and stood stiffly there accompanied by her assistant, the moth lady, like the aforementioned sentinels.

The ground shook again and the whole crowd had to hold on to something nearby. It was like an earthquake but did not damage any structure of the building. Sharp and horrible thumping sound could be heard echoing. The aisle cracked but did not open. The emcee on the highest platform on the heptagon tried to balance himself as the ground kept shaking and growling and roaring. They heard a distinct yet so loud roaring sound of a lion.
"Did you hear that?" The emcee curved his hand against his earlobe, "the roaring sound could be heard from a great distance. Who might he be? He whose strength was beyond human power. He, who is courageous, fierce and might bite you with his large jaws and sharp teeth. He, who is the most powerful and the strongest human being ever existed. He who masters and advances all kind of martial arts-"
The emcee shook, mimicking the shaken ground. He grabbed his microphone as it slipped off from his hand and almost fell to the ground. He grabbed the metal fence around him and stood still with his legs shaking as if he was trembling. A few seconds later, the shaking ground was kept calm and placid.
"He who has the head of a lion and the one and only cyborg. He who exhibits humans true strength, who need not any single weapon to fight even the strongest vampire, behold, the Sentinel of Durability, Kaginuki Hayabusa!!" The emcee excitedly exclaimed with awe and locked his eyes on the entrance.
Hayabusa swaggered as he got out from the mouth of the entrance while waving his arms to the air. A goth blonde Lolita girl with two huge curly ponytails dangling on both sides of her head, followed him from behind and her shyness made her adorable. She wore a dark brownish-maroon goth dress with short frilly skirt and a pair of red gloves with frilled fringe on her wrists. She held onto Hayabusa's hand which made them look like a couple of a father and a child. Hayabusa stepped on the 3rd golden diamond shaped platform then it glowed orange.
"For now, we can see that five sentinels have entered the haptagon and lit up the diamonds. They glowed beautifully; crimson, violet, royal blue, amber and raging orange blazes. Wait! Two diamonds are empty!! Two sentinels haven't introduced themselves, and who might that be?" The emcee pinched his chin and glanced at the empty and unlit diamonds. "Did you hear that?"

"Pfffft, it was a joke," teased the emcee but nobody laughed.
A small silver military tank accelerated out of the mouth of the entrance then started shooting the air with light bullets. The lights reflected and bounced from one glass to another glass then hit the emcee's platform and he jumped higher up into the air. He was startled by the abrupt fire.
"Hehehe," the emcee laughed nervously, "he who negotiates with the military on the battlefield. He whose intelligence is beyond the universe, he whose knowledge was vast and diverse. He who acknowledges the rule of the world through sciences, he who is very advanced, indeed! He, who is an Iranian scientist who was frenzied about the nuclear reaction, the Science Sentinel, Dr Ruthbert Ali Khan!!!"
Two fierce cyborg large beasts crawled out from the entrance with chains cuffed to their limbs and their metallic necks. Their physical stone hearts were glowing with red and orange colours. The longest chain from their body was connected to Ruthbert who got out with a huge sinister grin on his face. He widened his heterochromatic eyes and released the chain of the vicious cyborg beasts. The beasts ran while roaring towards the emcee's platform. Ruthbert took out a remote and pushed a button at the centre of the remote.
"Wha-what's happening?!" The emcee screamed in fear as his platform lowered down with the beasts barking and scratching the wall of the helt of the platform, "eeeeeeekkkkkk!!!! Tasuketeeeeee!!!!!"
Ruthbert clicked another button from the remote that fireworks burst out from the sole of his shoes. He flewed ahead to the heptagon then landed on the second golden diamond. The diamond glowed neon green as the tip of his shoe touched its smooth surface. He clicked another button on the remote and immediately, the beasts crawled in reverse then returned to the entrance together with the small tank. Ruthbert stroked his dirty green bazooka and embraced it like a cat.
The emcee was still solid white as he was terribly frightened by the fierce cyborgs which almost tore him into pieces. He returned back to normal then fixed his sunglasses. He cleared his throat and lifted the microphone closer to his lips.
"We have arrived at the final, almost the end of the parade. Let me introduce you, a young teenage English girl from the West. She, who has proven that the young can accelerate to the top as a promise, you need to toil and strive for what you've sought. She, who befriends death and the demon, she who learned dark art and magic. She who-" The emcee paused as the spotlights suddenly turned off.
The roaring and terrifying sound of a man from the abyss could be heard echoing. Was it the judgement day? The darkness broke as brilliant blue flames appeared surrounding the heptagon. The choir and the hymn of hell was getting louder and louder. The deep and epic beat of the drum made the event get even more darker. Black shadows crawled out of the entrance like smoke and invaded the crowds but did no harm. They immediately surrounded the heptagon and fixed it at that position. The black shadows transformed into men with skull faces with smoky black robes.
"Is today Judgement Day? The angels of death are waiting for a soul to be sowed, with demons roam around, the blue flames, it's like a requiem for death. She who mastered the art of magic, she who can bring the dead soul from the land of the dead to the land of the living, she who can raise the dead and bring them to life!! She, who is a good necromancer, the Mage Sentinel, Victoria Chelsea Rothschild!!!"
The hellish hymn got louder together with the battle beat of the drum. Victoria approached from the dark entrance with demon-like black shadows accompanying her. Her sleazy turquoise eyes were burning with aqua coloured flames. She walked while glaring ahead with her eyes filled with vengeance. She saw Yuu on the 7th crimson diamond then turned to smoke and blinked in front of him.
"You, who are you supposed to be?" Victoria asked Yuu with an angry tone.
"Woof?" Yuu barked shyly and bowed.
"This is ludicrous!! I sense a powerful dark magic from you, and a soul of a demon king from inside you."
Tachibana glared at Victoria with a face full of disgust.

Dungeon Core Chat Room.
This is a slower-paced "experiment and dungeon building" web novel that tries to use the idea of peer-to-peer communication with Dungeon Cores instead of Dungeon to slave monster communication to break up the detailed dungeon building. Rank 1 description: (minimum met for system initialization...detailed description as follows) Each race was given a system by the gods to make up for their shortcomings and balance their place in this world. Humans: Abysmally bad at understanding and using magic unable to use more than the lowest of magic were given the "Skill System" magic in the form of premade skills with use, study, and mastery tied to experience. Elves: Intuitively understand magic and have long lives leading to vast knowledge and skill in their chosen fields. However, as a species, they have nearly zero sex drive and less than low fertility, so they were gifted the "World Tree System" with experience gained through the care of natural areas – gifting the chance of children to increase their numbers without dirty copulation. All “natural” or “wild” monsters are given an "Evolution system" designed around killing and consuming as many creatures as possible, slowly increasing strength and, at thresholds, allowing mutations to alter them multiple times. Dungeon cores are different. Unlike humans, they can see, manipulate and live off mana. Unlike Elves, they naturally crystallize after extended periods of time in high mana level areas. However, they cannot easily move or communicate and typically go insane without companionship. As a species other than the odd eccentric they are unimaginative. Brute forcing solutions without the drive to truly innovate. Thus they have been gifted with the "Dungeon Connection System" a magical version of the internet accessible by their peers that allows them to barter and sell: bait, traps, monsters, and knowledge, as well as entertain each other with “adventure streams” using exciting recorded battles and humorous reels of arrogant chumps biting off more than they can chew to often fatal effects. This is the casual story of a dungeon unluckily spawned far from potential adventurers forced to innovate beyond its peers to find its place in this world. Rank 2 Description: Justification. I've been on a dungeon core kick for months and while I love the genre – it's sparse with entries. Often the forced conflict gets repetitive and frantic solving of threats "power levels" the protagonist to god levels to progress the plot – taking away the nice steady progression fantasy I'm looking for. (Progression in this story is linked to how strong of monsters/traps/whatever he can create not his "level"...this is demonstrated by some of his newer monsters beating his older monsters not with discrete "this monster has 10 attack this one has 40") Additionally, the focus on 3rd parties with their drama takes away from the reason I’m reading dungeon core novels in the first place – I'm looking for magical crafting, experimentation and kingdom building – not defence from higher and higher levelled enemies looking to steal/destroy/control the MC. This novel is kind of just me writing the story I wish I could read. I like thinking about the experimentation that can be done in fantasy settings using 'mana' as an excuse to make up rules and try to keep them internally consistent. IE once I define how a rule works, I'm going to commit to keeping it – no breaking hard truths I've given when it's convenient, even if it backs me into a corner. Hopefully, that should make the story interesting to read even if it's SOL and less action-oriented. There will be problems to solve and a clear progression in strength (of created monsters and knowledge) however due to not wanting to force conflict for the sake of conflict the general theme will be closer to slice of life with few action sequences and no overarching goal so please keep that in mind when picking this up as the genre is not for everyone. Finally, I have a clear goal of what I want from this story (not an endless romp but a series of arcs and then a conclusion that's a couple of dozen medium-sized chapters long) I want to commit to finishing it or at least bringing it to a point of rest. I hate all the engaging stories that stop with a “hiatus” indefinitely so in the event I lose motivation I'll work to end this even if the ending becomes rushed/unsatisfying just to give a sense of closure. I’m planning on including several polls in terms of direction and taking feedback heavily into account if I get enough readers (but may choose to ignore it if it deviates too far from the direction I want to take this as in feedback like: “The MC needs a cartoonishly evil arch-enemy that wants to enslave him and force the mc to pump out magic items” or “the MC needs to make a body and learn teleportation then live with humans” will get shot down without consideration.)
