--- Chapter 28 ---
Luna: That's darren?
Ame: mhm.
Red: YO darren, lets go! One vs one. You said you would when you came back.
Darren: I did?
He says scratching his head.
Red: Don't tell me you forgot! You told me when you left 2 years ago that when you got back we would fight! I've been training for this!
Darren cracks a smile.
Darren: Well then, you seem all fired up. I don't think I did, but even so, I never turn down a challenge, kiddo.
Red creates his sword, and starts to run in, Darren remains standing there as if he isn't scared, in fact he's still smiling. Red leaps to slash down, but the instant he jumps, Darren appears behind him and chops his neck, and Red flops to the floor unconscious.
Luna: So fast! Even with that heavy armor! I didn't even see him move.
The crowd roars, before coming in and wheeling Red away.
Luna: With that kinda armor, he probably never gets hit.
Ame: True, but the armor isn't the reason he doesn't get hit.
Luna looks at her confused.
Ame: You saw his speed, none of us could ever land a hit.
Luna: Then what's the point of the armor? If it's not protecting him then why have it at all?
Ame: That armor isn't protecting him, it's protecting us.
Luna: What? How does that work?
Ame: His strength is unlike anything you and I have ever seen. Without the armor, there's a chance him moving would create a shock wave big enough to kill.
Luna: He's that strong huh?
Ame: Yup.
Little footsteps are heard as Tilda comes out of nowhere and runs up to darren, jumping to a big hug. Darren is caught off guard but then hugs back.
Luna: What's up with them?
Ame: Darrens Tildas teacher, and kinda a father figure.
Luna: Wait really?!
Ame: Mhm. That probably why she's so talented for her age.
Luna: Yah.
While this is taking place, Sole tells the master what happened.
Master: So, you say a masked man who has teleportation capabilities?
Sole: Yes, he also seemed to have a magic item. It was a flying spike he could control.
Master: Ok. I must consult with Darren, and we will figure out a plan. You may go.

8 163Level One Chef
Being an adventurer sucked. And so Harper Emerson decided he needed a do-over. Fleeing from his previous life (and the debts that came along with it), Harper foucuses on setting up shop as a chef at an eatery in the "quaint" town of Mystic Falls. It's a total sty, but he's willing to call it home. However, his idealized dream of becoming a restaurateur is plauged by so many issues it'll be amazing if he ever gets the damn place opened. Especially when his creditor comes collecting. This is a slice-of-life, light crafting LitRPG that focuses on building and establishing the eatery, designing recipes, and cooking meals... as well as Harper's growth as a person. A warning: Harper sometimes has Big Brain ideas, and while he's quick to call himself an idiot, they are far from stupid. Just keep reading. Participant in the Royal Road Wriathon challenge.

8 221Godmaker's Gem
Do objects have a soul? A memory? A being? Are they just a bunch of inanimate objects or do they have an ego? Those a pen, a chair, a grain of sand, have a personality? And if they don’t, what would haőppen if they do get one. Not possessed by another being, but have a being that came from nothing. And when they die where do they go? Can something without a soul be even considered alive? Ps: cover only temporary, looking for a better one. Open to suggestions.
