《The Dragon’s Kin》Time for family hunt
Advertisement
It's morning of third and last day of the festival and we were on our way out of the city.
Yesterday, after leaving the king, we went to the Hunter's Guild for my ID card as well as accepting the king's quest.
When we entered the Guild, a huge commotion broke out because of me. Seeing 'Silver Death' holding hands with a 10 year old girl while smiling was probably too much for some to handle.
Mother also asked about rank tests, but she was dismissed by guild master, that came to quiet the commotion. He told us to come after the quest.
After that, we went to buy gear for 'Tamara Silver', the daughter of Alice Silver or in another words, for me.
As we are both dragons, we don't need weapons or armor unless we fight in human form, but for the sake of appearances, we had to buy some.
Before the sunset, we arrived at the inn. After having meal and a bath, we went to our room to prepare.
"I'm sorry for not telling you earlier about the quest Tama" mother said so as we walked through the gate.
"Don't be mom, I also wanted to try fighting something other than grandpa" waving my hand to gesture it's okay, I said so.
"Since it's a strong monster, we will be fighting in our dragon form" she stated. It was probably for my safety.
It will take two days if we walk, while only few hours while flying. The location was cave inside the forest.
"Are going to walk or fly there?" I asked.
"Hm...flying is faster, but we don't want to be seen. So we will walk" she answered after a few seconds of thought.
'I don't want to walk for two whole days!!!' is what I thought.

I tried to complain, but we still ended up walking halfway through the distance before we boarded a passerby carriage.
The carriage we borded was heading towards village, that was right next to our destination. We shared the carriage with a beautiful sister-type girl. She looked in her twenties but because her ears were a bit pointy, I think she was half-elf. Since it's rude to ask girl for her age, I had to give up on asking.
The jorney ended up safely as we arrived at the village before it became dark. After we arrived, mother showed her negotiating skills while managing to reserve a big room in one of the village houses. She does have a lot surprising skills.

We haven't waited for the sunrise before departing towards the cave in forest nearby.
The scenery was full of greenery and small monsters could be heard all around us. It's a lot smaller than forest on our island but as far as I can tell, there are more monsters.
A small clearing spread inside the forest and right in the middle, there was a huge hole that was probably the entrance to the cave.
"It's stinky here" I commented right as we entered the cave.
"Really? There are even worse smells out there" she tilted her head.
You shouldn't say things like this mother... I am a bit worried about my future quests you know!
Suddenly a chill ran through the cave. As I felt it comming, I transformed into my dragon form.
Sensing it too, mother also transformed into her dragon form while turning her head towards the incoming monster.
"Looks it's time for our family hunt Tama..."

THE SPACE LEGACY
-= New chapter every Wednesday! =- What would you do if you found an ancient spaceship? Michael Freeman is a disabled veteran who had just been fired from his mind-numbing cubicle job, which allowed his opportunistic girlfriend to dump him. Now, he only wants to spend some time in his grandfather's mountain cabin to unwind away from the drudgery of daily life with a cold beer in his hands. Standing in his way is an ancient spaceship with an emotional AI, nanites that have invaded his body, an international crime syndicate, a suicidal FBI agent on a vigilante mission, terrorists... and this is just the beginning. What can one man do when faced with insurmountable odds? Call it quits? Or… call some of his old army buddies and blow those obstacles to smithereens. Can he become more than he had ever dreamed, reaching further than any man before? Staying under the radar of the powers that be while righting a few wrongs of the modern world. He is sure of three things: 1. He really doesn’t want to follow the rules anymore... aside from his own. 2. Space is the ultimate frontier, and he had been given a turnkey technology to reach it—if they let him. 3. Those that want to hurt him and the people he cares about will rue the day they were born. You do not always get what you wish for… sometimes, you get one hell of a lot more. --- “Really entertaining, and a promising future.” - RR Reviewer “Good old sci-fi novel” - RR Reviewer “Sci-fi with a realistic MC” - RR Reviewer “Wow, seriously... just wow” - RR Reviewer “I'm hooked!” - RR Reviewer “A well crafted story.” - RR Reviewer “A Sci-fi Novel I can appreciate” - RR Reviewer “This is f....ing good.” - RR Reviewer -------------------------------------------------- Advance chapters available on Patreon -------------------------------------------------- The original art for the cover picture was made by N.

8 418The Befuddled
Sam has never broken a promise, and doesn't plan on breaking one in his lifetime. So when Sam promises a dying friend to return a precious family keepsake to his sister, only to find the sister dead as well, Sam realizes he needs to take drastic measures to ensure his word is kept. That means sailing to the Necropolis Isles, the fabled land of the dead where it is said that the dearly departed reside. But that means crossing the Ocean, the broken, warped land where maps never lead you to the same place twice and the Laws of Reality apply intermitently at best. He'll need to face down seas made of hungry tongues, hedonistic Mer-People, face stealing pirates and worse if he wants to make it to the Necropolis Isles. Fortunately he's enlisted help from the crew of The Ocean going vessel, The Befuddled. The crew may seem as mad as anything else on the ocean, but sometimes a little insanity is exactly what you need to survive.
8 88Kichiro's Rampage
Meet Kichiro, the son of a samurai. A social outcast, he leaves his home with nothing but a musket and a sword, determined to carve himself a niche in a chaotic world of dragons and leviathans. This fiction incorporates LitRPG elements, but it's not set in a VR. It's set in a fantastical world based loosely on East Asia in the 16th and 17th Century, when the Ming Dynasty was on its last legs, with the addition of magic and monsters. I totally stole the stat tables from Exterminatus, the author of Everybody Loves Large Chests, so let me credit him for that. I'm new to writing so please don't hesitate to criticise, and reviews would be greatly appreciated.
8 163Nova: Omega
Nova: Omega is the story of Hitori Seishin, a mercenary on the planet of Esper. He leads Omega team in the Nova Mercenary Academy, and is the son of the legendary warrior Maia Seishin, now deceased. He is in the final days of his education at the elite Academy, where at the last minute he’s assigned a new teammate, Elvira. She is a total novice, but her unique abilities make her a promising addition to his team. We join the pair on their journey, Hitori, fighting to prove he belongs amongst the ranks of warriors indisputably his better, and Elvira, struggling to adapt to a world where the trophy for second place is a tombstone. Meanwhile, ancient and powerful forces clash in the shadows, racing across the globe to secure powerful artifacts capable of upending the foundations of the world. New chapters released every MWF. Sorry for the random tiny chapters. I structured and uploaded this as a series of scenes, some of which just didn't need to be very long. I could probably attach the "sub-scenes" to previous chapters, but that'd only be covering it up, so I'm not sure its worth it. Anyway if you find them annoying, let me know, and I'll put some more thought into it. I did, at least, make a point of always posting at least a thousand words on any given day (after I noticed the problem), which hopefully mitigates the problem.
