CALENDAR DAY 05 MONTH 05 YEAR 201 LOCATION: Fortitude of Perdition, west of the capital. It is dawn already I hear the horn playing for changes of shifts, running down the corridors of the Castle I arrive at the section of the walls I open the door and go to the watchtower, getting there my shift colleague who will spend the next hours with me he is 3 meters long and 20 cm with narrow eyes always looks serious with dark leather and matte metal armor to camouflage at night holding a bow with both upper hands and a sword at the waist that the lower left hand is holding. "Hey Leon, it was bad because of the delay I had to go to the barracks to get my armor, last attack last week a Quetz pierced it all'' "Do you think they will attack today? It's been a month since they started attacking frequently, but these days they are quiet Leon listening replies says - It must be because we killed many of them, the researchers said that it is because of the large population of beasts that grows more each day so they attack us, food is scarce for them and our valley becomes a treasure for them, 100 years ago it wasn't like that not even hungry they didn't attack us but over time it seems they are getting smarter and more aggressive Hopefully the researchers will find some solution for that When Leon talks about researchers his eyes shine, he knows that people who only know how to fight like he doesn't have much use but the researchers did , he sent his daughter there and stayed here on the border for over 100 years just to do contributions and protect his family from attacks Green - yes in the last few years even the Quetz are learning to cooperate and give us sneak attacks Remembering last week Green shivers all over, he almost loses his life in a Quetz attack. They are a small but dangerous reptile species reaching very high speeds with the minimum of noise, they can camouflage themselves perfectly in the jungle and have sharp claws with poison that even a resistance-modified soldier can die if not treated in time Leon who was looking at the forest turns to him and says in a hoarse and deep voice - no problem, it is still within the acceptable range, but let it not be repeated if I will not be obliged to report to the captain In that my heart is relieved, I straighten my posture, I clap my hand on my chest covered in armor and promise "clang" - this will not be repeated I promise it was just a special occasion, this month the logistics people have been going to the capital a lot so it took them a long time to fix my armor. I look to the side quickly seeing that there is no one whisper softly to Leon - Don't you find their behavior a little mysterious? Leon seeing shakes his head in helplessness he knows that this soldier is still young He's just been promoted he still has several things he hasn't learned, full of curiosity about everything but why he likes him still has to warn - do not be so speculating in public about the actions of your superiors if someone goes like this and denounces you may return to militia training for a few months as a punishment, but I know that your young hearts do not stop quiet anywhere, so I will talk I heard rumors at dinner with the captain that it will be a surprise from the scientific department for our military in a while, now we will be on surveillance here and this matter is over I shake my head several times and say in a serious tone —Yes yes yes I understand, my mouth is a grave Green was born in the capital 30 years ago with a father in the militia and his mother too, since he was 5 years old when he entered the academy trained to join the army and be an excellent soldier since he started showed excellent aptitude for combat and survival with a degree of acceptance for high modifications, completed all the basic modifications at the age of 20 when he left the academy to join the militia there he went through more training and modifications for combat type strength and basic agility that improves the control and coordination of muscles such as basic night vision and perception that captures vibrations in the air within a radius of 10 meters, after 4 years of intense training he managed to become a soldier with excellent handling of the bow received an experimental improvement in vision, after that he was sent to the fortress of perdition to defend his people, when arrived here was assigned to the shadow squad and received a camouflaged shadow armor as basic equipment then on here Reminding me of the past, nostalgia beats for years that he hasn't returned to the capital, but leaving the state of remembrance, I start paying attention outside, the tower we are in is part of the wall that is 20 meters high and 10 wide, that stretches for hundreds of meters blocking the entrance to the valley () with mountains blocking around this is the only easy majs passage to cross with outposts spread around we form a wide safety net We cleared 5 km of forest around to predict enemies and at that time I have privileged vision along with my improvement in the eyes, I am excellent watchman, while time goes by I tell Leon

I should have been the Hero instead
William Valenston had a happy life untill a new demonlord appeared.With the constant threat of the vile creatures he must quickly become a man and defend his Race from the approaching disaster. the synopsis and title will probably change later on And I think it gets better after arc 1 ch 3 The real story won't begin untill the heroes are summoned so you may feel a little bored while Im building the world and te mc' s personality. I wanted to state that this novel will start with a lighter tune but then get dark real fast. For the sexual content: it wont happen untill much longer. And when it happens it wont be overly explicit. Gore and traumatising content: It wont be at the level of nauseous but it may be too so just to be safe. This is my first try on writing novels so I welcome all of your criticism either good or bad. And lastly english isn't my native tounge so expect some grammer mistakes.But I will work on that part I promise.

The times and struggle of a orc cook in the Demon Lord's army. (On Hiatus due to reasons seen in summary)
Title needed a change. So a full honest update to you all who are reading and following this story. I'm putting this story on a Hiatus not only because of I'm trying to improve my spelling and grammer (which is slow going) but also due to other reasons listed down below. 1) The story is getting a full re-write as these last months have given me time to see what I have already writen and what else I have planned is not gonna work no matter how much I've tried with what I call 'test chapters' to see how what works or not. 2) I don't really have the time to write, mainly thanks to life deciding to throw a bunch of stuff and leaving me exhausted both mentally and physically. And what little free time I have is barely enough for me to do anything that other than sleep or play a game for maybe 15 min. 3) I have a job and bills to pay. Some of which are overdue. It also dose not help that thanks to the new inflations in prices, I've been struggling to get things in order. So now you all know. Once things have calmed down and gotten somewhat in order again, I'll be posting the new first chapter as soon as I can along with a new summary for the story. Until then, I hope you all have a nice day and enjoy all the other stories you can find around this wonderful site.
