《Wrath of the chosen (DROPPED)》chapter12: Kung-Fu Grip
Advertisement
After we exit through the back I take a moment to retrieve my sword from where it landed
{You unbelievable idiot!! I can’t believe you forgot my tooth!!!}
(Hey, you forgot too!!)
{No I didn’t!}
(Then why didn’t you say anything?!)
{I thought you had it!}
(Why would you think that, aren’t you connected to it via soul or something!)
{Just shut up and say goodbye to your friends already!}
(Fine!)
I walk up to Renise and Sheamus who wait for me at the front gate.
“So are you guy’s going to walk me to The Inn an Out Bar, or are you dropping me off here?”[me]
“Unfortunately it seems we have to get started on our work immediately but we’ll be sure to see you off before you leave.”[Renise says apologetically]
“Gibah’ lad, try not ta git in any more fights ya can’t handle.”[Sheamus says melodramatically in a forced thick accent]
I pat Sheamus on the shoulder and give Renise a thumbs up, “Well I guess I’ll be getting on then. I hope the paperwork isn’t to bad.”
As I turn to leave I am struck with an overwhelming sense of loss and loneliness but instead of looking back I make my way into the streets.
The city is large and far more crowded than it was earlier. Merchants sell jewelry and show off fancy foreign garments. A butcher on the side of the road hangs up a slab of jerky in his window wand wafts the smell of freshly smoked meats into the market. I struggle not to bump into anyone as I retain a tight hold of my bag. When a comotion starts a few stalls ahead of me, just outside the inn “Filthy little bitch, what did you go and do that for?!”

I move to get closer and see a group of large men surrounding a very angry looking woman in an apron. There are three of them and they all look like giant anthropomorphic pigs with the head man resembling a wild boar. They all carry swords on their hips except the boar who wields a large double headed battle axe on his back. I make my way through the crowd that has gathered to watch and find a spot in the front of the crowd facing the confrontation with the woman on my left and the thugs on my right.
The woman is maybe 5’6 and barley comes up to the lead mans shoulder. Her muscles are well defined beneath her long barmaid sleeves and flex intimidatingly as she brushes long curly auburn hair away from her face. Her expression firm and strong, she takes a deep breath revealing some savage canines that fit her small round bear ears and built frame.
“Well in case you forgot, THIS IS MY BUSINESS AND THAT MEANS TOUCHING THE GOODS IS BAD FOR BUSINESS, AND BAD BUSINESS WILL NOT BE TOLERATED!!!!!” The woman winds up for a backhanded slap as her shout still rings in the ears of everyone in the crowd.
(should I step in?)
{shhh, this is the best part}
*CRACK*
Suddenly porkers is sent soaring overhead, his body spiraling down the street and his friends stand stalk still and scared shitless.
“Oh that is it you bitch!”[one of the two remaining piggies]
Or they could just get really mad, and try fight in her… I better step in, the last thing I need is for the owner to get arrested and lose the only place I can stay tonight.
(you’re right that was fun but play times over)

{self righteous buzzkill}
(oh hush you)
The men withdraw their blades but stop when they spot me walking towards them.
“Good day gentlemen, is there a problem here?”[I ask as politely as I can]
“No there ain’t because I was about to get rid of it now kindly fuck off good sir.”[the angry business owner]
Hmm, I’m not sure what I was expecting but it wasn’t that. But at least the two pigs look surprised too.
“Well Miss, not to be rude but I think there are better ways to deal with your problems that don’t include pimp slapping a man into next we-MPH!!”
Suddenly a big meaty fist engulfs the entirety of my head.
“Stay out of this little man.”[a baritone voice oinks]
His sweat smells like bacon grease.
{Still opting for a peaceful negotiation?}
(I’m not killing them)
{boooooo}
I grab the thick wrist and squeeze.
“Heyheyheyheyheyhey!!”[Bacon Bits]
His bones begin to creak and crack as his grip lessans and I drag his arm away from my face.
“You might want to give up now.”[me]
"F-fuck you!" he swings his free hand at my head but gets his arm caught by the bear woman.
"Nah Fred, you go pick up your useless drunk of a brother, this ones mine."[I really don't like that look on her face]

Only Villains Do That
While waiting on an Akihabara train platform one day, ordinary high schooler Yoshi Shinonome was suddenly plucked from his normal life in Japan and whisked away by a beautiful goddess to Ephemera, a world of magic and adventure, to serve as her Hero and drive back the evil Dark Lord. This is not his story. Standing nearby at the moment Yoshi was isekai'd was a man named Seiji - a rude, cranky, misanthropic musician who was not at all pleased to find himself also snatched up and transported to Ephemera by the goddess's wicked sister, Virya. According to this self-proclaimed Goddess of Evil, the whole fantasy adventure thing was a game she and her sister played to stave off the boredom of immortality, and since the good goddess, Sanora, had picked her Hero...well, Virya needed a Dark Lord. A grown man with his own career and ambitions, Seiji has no interest in playing. Unfortunately for him, the call to adventure was not a request. Now, he must conquer Ephemera and defeat the Hero...or Virya promises to make him beg for the release of death before granting it. Playing along for his own survival, Seiji nonetheless is under no illusions who his true enemy is, and it's not the naive young would-be Hero from his own world. Placed in an impossible position, Seiji must make enough progress toward world domination to keep his sadistic patron goddess off his back, but not so much that he can't strike an accord with the forces of Good and convince the Hero Yoshi that it's the goddesses who are their mutual enemy. Forced to embrace Evil without being too evil, Seiji walks the razor's edge, building his forces and biding his time till he can get revenge on the goddesses and be free of them, his only certainty that he will not be getting out of this with his hands clean. A Dark Lord's gotta do what a Dark Lord's gotta do. Updates Tuesday and Friday. Most Patreon tiers get to read one chapter in advance of the public release!

Paladin
When the first derelict alien spacecraft fell to Earth, humanity took what was found in it and propelled themselves to new heights. In their new Golden Age, humanity developed technology that they had only dreamed about. The following years saw hundreds more ships crash into the planet, spurring even greater technological leaps. An unassuming spacecraft, one of the dozens that fell yearly, descended on Siberia in 2021. The world took no particular notice of it. However, this one contained something beyond the miraculous technology that had made humans so prosperous. Three years later, in a top-secret underground facility in eastern Colorado, the automated construction of an army of Paladin Mobile Infantry Suits was underway. With this new, state-of-the-art weaponry, the military would turn the tide against the alien incursion that was consuming the planet. Humanity fell before that could happen. Sam was an engineer responsible for overseeing the facility. Now alone, he lives in utter boredom and near insanity, his only company the base’s pseudo AI and an army of empty Paladins. With the world gone to hell around him, and the things that caused it still living above, he decides that he is much better off staying exactly where he is. Unfortunately for him, that is no longer an option. This is the first novel I've written. The first fifteen or so chapters are going to be a little slower. I want there to be time to get to know the characters before they start blowing stuff up. Also, though the MC will be strong relative to the world, he won't be OP, and won't win every fight. Not every fight will be physical either. Currently, I'm aiming for something like 5 fairly short chapters a week, after the introduction part is done, but we'll see how that goes. Thanks for reading, and please let me know if I've made mistakes!
