《Sir Skelliton》Downsizing
Advertisement
Usually when someone says they need to talk; it usually means things aren’t going to end well. Thankfully, since she’s your Master and not someone of emotional value, this conversation shouldn’t be too serious.
“I need you to stop being my Minion.”
Turns out you were right. It's not that bad. It's worse. So, so much worse.
...For what reason, my Master?
You are obedient. Loyal. A Minion. It is in your nature to listen to any and all commands.
“You’re scaring everyone. Me as well.”
She averts her eyes as the words come crashing down.
“...and I never wanted to be a Necromancer.”
Spoken at a whisper, they sound like thunder to your nonexistent ears. Your face must have betrayed you. Or your Master was just that insightful. Takes a certain level of skill to read a person with no skin or mussels to show clear emotions.
“It’s not you, really! Your strong, taking down my parents’ proof enough. I mean it’s not every day a Skeleton takes down a Level 60 Head Priest. Twice even. And I can see you're really loyal! I don’t have to worry about you disobeying me.”
Her smile attempts to lighten the blow. Her words would have been enough. If they didn’t ring hollow.
“I just... seeing my life heading in a different direction, you know? It's nothing personal. Really.”
...
Surprising. You struggled seemingly endlessly to get here. Face tribulation after tribulation. One’s external or internal, but an obstacle regardless. You failed a number of times actually. Yet, you pressed onward. Obedient and devoted to the one who raised you in towards undeath. Changing, growing stronger, and developing every step of the way. Until finally, finally, you meet your maker.
Only to be found unfit for duty in less than a day.

...
And yet, you are ever willing to serve.
If that is your wish Master.
But it never occurred to you. Never even entertained the thought. That there was a very real and black order that would leave your Master’s lips. Enough to be soul-crushing to such a simple-minded Minion such as yourself.
She gives a smile. Full of pity. Discomfort. She doesn’t waver regardless.
“Sir Skellington, I relieve you from service. You are no longer my Minion.”
Master Isha has terminated the service contract with Minion Sir Skellington.
The string, one that shown bright and strong since you first arose, disappears. Fundamentally disconnecting you from your Master. Forever.
You’d cry if you could.
Silence falls into the room. You yourself simply sit in your cage. Without purpose. Without meaning. Without life.
The Mas-
...
Isha, stands there awkwardly, shuffling from foot to foot. Her discomfort is apparent. You rest your hand, unable to see her as you stare into the floor of your cage.
Why would you look at her now? She is not the Master. She is not an enemy. And even if she was, so what? You have no reason to defend yourself. Not anymore.
You’re not even hungry.
Footsteps reverberate through the room.
Away from you.
It would seem that Isha was done here.
...
She didn’t even say goodbye.
...
The hollowness in your soul gnaws at you.
...
You haven’t moved.
...
You don’t think.
...
You just lay there.
...
..
.
Isha the N/A would like to establish a Minion Contract.
Do you accept? Y/N

The Everlasting. (Completed)
An Everlasting. A title given to those who have reached a state closest to godhood. Be it through might and power or through love and compassion. These beings hold great influence over the realms. This story is about Asura, a young orphaned child, who was taught the way of the blade and has mastered the Warrior Arts at a very young age. Given a recommendation by his master, Asura ventures out to broaden his horizons and to learn magic. Follow Asura’s journey and his quest to reach Everlastinghood. Comment by the author: Looking at the chapter list, you might have noticed Volume 1 is not there. The reason is that it’s in the process of being published so I’m somewhat restricted in where and how I can post it. Edit. 18/04/2017 The first volume is now officially on sale. It is no longer possible to get the first volume for free. I am sorry but it was free for a long time and it was time for it. However if you like to support me you can find th first volume here on Amazon (getBook.at/TheEverlasting) Compared to other stories on Royal Road this one is faster paced. No artificial extensions of the story by spending forever in generic constructs, like random ranking tournaments, that don’t really matter for the overall plot. That’s the plan anyway. Volumes consist roughly of 30-35k words. Additionally: I am not a native speaker, nor have I had any formal education in the English language. I am trying very hard to improve myself. If you want to help me by proofreading my story, shoot me a PM and we’ll see if we can arrange something. Other than my thanks and fake internet points I can’t offer anything, though. Yeah, poor student here… Edit 22/06/2017 Hey the story is officially ended if i ever decide to continue it will be on another date. The ending is open for anyone to use their imagination. Thank you all for the support. I hope we could meet later in the Everlasting II. Respectfully Biako

Eater of Spirits
Story is abandoned. There will be no more updates on it. Jarod is kind of a loser, as it goes with these stories. A tear in his reality pulls him into another world, where he gains the ability to devour spirits, the locus of magic within the world. This is far from my first foray into fiction, but it is my first time posting anything to royal road, and first time writing LitRPG. This is an exercise in putting things out there, and just writing. That means that all of this is going to be a first draft, where edits may come sparsely if there is a glaring issue or something I think should be better. Thanks for reading!
