《A New Light In Interria》Chapter 14: History [2]
Advertisement
Hmm, even in a parallel world, war is still something inevitable. I sighed as I thought about the drops of blood sacrificed on this continent.
"Unfortunately, truly unfortunate." I thought to myself.
I've also eaten all the meat on the table, I should bring the plate down to Amae and dispose of all the evidence when I've finished reading this book. Suddenly I heard a conversation in the bathroom.
"Listen, Mr. Hades is not a bad person." Veene was probably talking to herself.
I went to the bathroom and knocked on the door.
"Veene, is something wrong?"
"Oh no, Mr. Hades, I just…just…" Veene began faltering.
"If nothing happens, that's fine. But are you done yet?"
"Yes, I'm done, Mr. Hades."
Veene came out, wearing a white pajama after taking a shower. And then she slowly walked to the bed while thinking.
"Aren't you feeling tired, Mr. Hades? You can sleep on the bed if you want." Veene said in a rather worried voice.
"It's okay, you go to sleep first, I'll sleep later." I coaxed Veene.
Veene started to sleep, but she didn't seem to be comfortable with me being up at night like this. But maybe she'll get used to it because it's still a long time before I can get a good night's sleep. And where did I leave off, that's right the consequences of the Holy war.
*The Holy war has changed many things throughout the continent of Interria. The gods that helped the dragons were held accountable. Those gods were Rebelius became the god of chaos Chaosius, Decaius became the god of destruction Destructius, Foreverius became the god of death Deathius, and Politicius became the god of cunning Foxius. The Allies of Humanity disbanded. The Dragon species is said to be extinct. The death of the tree of life transformed the fertile land of Arania into a harsh ground for all hominoids. This is called the era of war.*

*50 years before the birth of the Glorian Empire:
- The non-human faction united under the name of Arania under the command of Demon Lord Morlock. Faced with the danger of being overtaken by the hominoid faction, humanity suddenly cast a high-level spell that summoned powerful heroes from another world.
-However, what did not expect was a large-scale military coup by the first hero to be summoned, Andrew Griffin after 10 years of living in Avalian.
- After the successful military coup, Andrew began an expedition to unify the kingdoms lasting 40 years throughout the human territory to form the Glorian empire. After the expedition, he named himself Griffin I, Emperor of Glorian. This is called the Glorian period.
* Year 0 to present imperial calendar:
After successfully conquering the human territory, Griffin I joined hands with the demon lord Morlock in the renewal of both nations. He quickly developed the economy, introduced science from another world, eradicated poverty, reduced class distinctions in society,... But there was one thing that he and Morlock still hadn't achieved: create a good relationship between humanity and hominoids. That is what he and Morlock regret most until the last moments of their lives. However, if only counting his achievements in human territory, it is more than enough for the people of Glorian to believe and love him.
-However, on the day of his son Griffin II's coronation as emperor in the 30th year of the imperial calendar, he was assassinated in front of the entire population by a hominoid assassin. Griffin II then fell into an unrelenting rage combined with hatred for the hominoid that led him to initiate the Great Holy War.
The great war lasted for 10 years. The human side summoned heroes to speed up the battle. Hominoid did their best to minimize casualties and property, negotiate on the political front, and defend and counterattack on the military front. However, due to the superiority of the heroes, the demon lord Morlock had to directly negotiate with Griffin II to end the intensification of the war. Morlock gave up his own life to stop the destruction of his people's homes, before that he assigned the Beast King Leonidas (his right hand) to become the successor to the demon lord title. Morlock's body was brought back to Arania's capital, Morlock (changed after the demon king's death) in memory of the demon king's devotion to his people.*

Finally done. I closed the book. Veene seemed to be asleep, so I quietly went downstairs with the plate and the evidence. Now, what should I do with all this evidence ?.

Helena's Plane
Paul, a bored young man, wakes up in a white room. A young woman tells him he has died, that she is some kind of god who likes videogames and he will be reborn in an RPG-esque world so she and her fellow god-friends can watch him for entertainment.Unfortunately, the goddess forgot to give Paul most of the obligatory, obvious cheat-abilities to make him rush to power in easy mode. Paul embraces his new life full of clichés, perverts, magic, loot and action. And animal girls.18+ !CONTAINS GRAPHIC VIOLENCE AND SEXUAL CONTENT! (Actual sex is still hard to find, but you will get it. Eventually. Sporadically.) =================Author's note:So, this is my very first novel. It will be poorly written, has a huge info-dump disguised as a first chapter (to be rewritten. At some point in the future. I guess.), and may or may not offend everyone for different reasons. Perhaps you will just find it boring, which would be even worse. The description turned out a bit comedic, but the story isn't overly so.I have a rough idea of where this will be going, but expect some bumps on the road, as well as logic holes, flat characters and a lot of borderline copyright infringements from all the ideas I got reading other works. And did I mention I'm not a native speaker? No? Well, expect some embarrassing grammar and wording choices.The main character is a more or less normal guy, without high morals, martial arts skills or even a desirable goal in life. There is mature content, in terms of violence and sexual content. It won't become a full-blown erotic novel, and it may or may not be your cup of tea when it comes to the type of content.Critics welcome.

Ambition [Indefinite Hiatus]
Hunger, poverty, and suffering rampages throughout the world of Terra, as its seven great nations remain locked in a draining stalemate. In the midst of all this, Eremus and Ducis, two insignificant boys born with nothing, to nothing, develop a grand ambition to conquer the world and rid it of the concept of war forever. Eremus is proud of his cunning, and is confident that it will serve him well in achieving his shared ambition with Ducis. However, now he must match wits with the greatest minds of the land, and he may find that he has bitten off far more than he can chew... Note: This is a story I wrote when I was in high school, and have only recently moved it here to Royal Road. It was my first stab at writing an original fiction of my own, and though I had many things planned for it, I don't think I'll be continuing this now or in the forseeable future.

The Errant Otherworlder Watanabe
“In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death, taxes and trucks whom transport men to other worlds.” Meet our titular protagonist Haruto Watanabe, a man who has all the markings of a good protagonist for a generic portal fantasy story. As an overworked office worker, to escape from the grips of crippling capitalist alienation, he had taken up to reading many stories where young men like him were transported to other worlds and enjoyed their lives at a most leisurely pace. Armed with genre-awareness and (what he believes to be) a marketable personality which would make him an easy audience self-insert, he longed for the day the isekai express would take him to his long-awaited adventure to another world. When the fateful day came, where the fair yet harsh mistress that is the fabled truck took Watanabe on one last date to the other side, he was most ready to escape his previous life, ready to embark on an errant so great he’d be most overpowered, his heroics so exceptional and his harem so vast that they would barely fit ten or twenty volumes of an overly long novel made by a desperate author looking for quick cash. Lo and behold however, Watanabe instead found himself in a low fantasy world which lacked severely in the department of any game-like systems, cheat skills or easily charmed damsels in distress. In a setting so antithetical to his established genre savviness or any attempts at power fantasy, how will a man like Watanabe, lacking in strength, wits and courage, manage to survive in a land most foreign to him? This is my first time trying to share to the wider world what I’ve written, and I hope you’ll enjoy reading the errantry of Watanabe as much as I enjoy writing about them. I'll be posting one chapter per week on Sundays, along with extra chapters whenever I get the chance to write more than usual.
