[Bloodsabre Gentleman]
That was the title which the surrounding people branded Shang with after the day his fight with the elder from the Wang Family.
The Wang Family did not do anything to shut the mouths who learn about as there is no way one can wipe anyone’s memory of seeing the red sky which was created by Shang’s killing pressure. The third son of family head, Wang Chencai was later seen entering the shop with apology gifts.
Chencai is not only the visitor. Other families and factions who are living in the same province, the Luo Province where Shang’s shop is, sent their servants and underlings to request for his services.
Shang is seen as a valuable asset and If he agrees to join, no one can prevent them from doing what they want in this province. Sadly, Shang rejects all requests and advances, saying he just want to live a normal shopkeeper’s life.
Shang also makes a promise to the Province Lord who personally comes to the shop that if the province is in danger, he is willingly to lend a hand.
Regarding the request from the Snow Mountain Sect, Shang turns it down, saying that unless the weapons have chosen their customers, he will not be selling any of them.
After declaring the closing time for the shop and requesting the visitors to leave, Shang and the girls finally find some peace and quiet.
Shang: Alright, all of you go up and rest for the night
Xiao-wan: What about you?
Shang: Me? I will be here for a while before going up. You girls will have a field day tomorrow, so get an early rest.
Girls: Understood.
Making sure that all the girls are gone, Shang sits behind the counter and takes a breather.
Shang stares blankly at the closed doors of the shop.

????: Going off again?
Shang turns to the female voice from the stairs.
Shang: Nanami… How do you know?
Nanami: So many years together and I don’t know the husband I shared my bed with? Don’t treat me like a fool.
Shang: Ha ha, only my wife know me best.
Nanami: So which world will you be going this time?
Shang: I don’t know… It could be a martial world with politics and mysteries, a medieval world with angels and demons or a normal world where things that I know don’t exist.
Nanami: Normal world? You mean a world where there is no such thing as cultivators, immortals and martial artist?
Shang: Something like that.
Shang stands and walks towards the doors.
Nanami: Shang…
Shang: Yeah?
Nanami: The path of strength… I don’t think we can make it...
Shang: Hmm.., Is that what you have concluded after yesterday fight?
Nanami nods to his reply.
Shang: Indeed, anyone would think the path of strength is worthless after a fight with a being who is True Immortal and higher.
Shang: But sorry, Nanami. I decided that I will walk the path of strength.
Shang disappears after stepping outside.
Nanami’s thoughts: Using nothing but physical body and strength to tear apart the universe… Is that even possible?

The Chronicles of Artharian Dagworth
Back in 2020 there were many theories on how the world would end. From the many religions apocalypses, nuclear wars that would leave the planet inhabitable, global warming doing the same, biological weapons getting out of control, viruses mutating into unstoppable diseases to the dead raising to prey on humanity, either due to a virus or just because hell filled up. Also, aliens, from the war mongering kind to the ones so advanced they didn’t see us as more than worms. And of course there was the fail proof theory that the world would end when the sun died. In a bunch of billion years give or take. Althougth some new scientist were discussing if the end would be on the take side, since when the sun started dying things would go haywire on the entire solar system and we would collide with mercury or maybe mars way before the expanding sun engulfed earth. But I digress… Now, those were the mainstream theories that the everyday Joe, who didn’t know the big secret, worried about. So, if you were to ask me which theory was correct I can tell you that I haven’t seen any little green man, at least not from another planet, and so far the sun is still shining, although it’s been only 9 years since everything went to hell, not the few billions (give or take) the scientist predicted, so that one isn’t ruled out yet. These two aside, I'd say all of them. Hey everyone, this is my first attempt at writing. I have been planning to do it for a really long time, and while this is not the one epic fantasy idea I ever wanted to write, I think it's a good one. The plan is to write an end of the world urban-fantasy series. Think a world like Dresden Files, Alex Verus, Iron druid, where magic is real but exist hidden from society meets the apocalypse. It will be written in first person in the Dresden Files style, no plans for other POV for now. As you probally alredy guessed from my style, english is not my first langague, so while google corrector helps, expect grammar errors, and I'd be gratefull for anyone to point them. I plan to write 2 to 3 chapters a week, 2000-4000 words each. Might change as I get more experience and depends on my free time. Cover image from the colections of getwallpapers.com
