《Legacy: Lord Alba》Chapter 23: She Left
Advertisement
"Oh, why do you say that someone stole a treasure?"
"Well, because, it is said that twelve days ago the king began to search madly everywhere in the capital of the kingdom, but he did not find it so in his anger he executed hundreds of thugs and corrupt officers in the capital, then moved the search to the whole kingdom, but apparently he still did not find it and it ended up as a purge in which hundreds of thousands of lives were taken"
"He killed so many people, and his people did nothing, are they not angry with his senseless killing?"
"Angry, haha, On the contrary, they are very happy, Within those hundreds of thousands killed were all corrupt nobles, officers or criminal, You can say that the safest Kingdom in the southern region is the Alba Kingdom"
When she heard that conversation, the middle-aged woman could not help but be sad, she was the queen of the Alba Kingdom, Isabella Keer, Because of her stupid brothers she had to run away with her son, now they headed north. She did love her husband, but she knew that if she stayed with him only death awaited her.
"Relax Isabella, When we enter the Uri Republic we will be safe, They are a mortal country of Fifth grade, Also with the talent of your son, It will not be difficult to enter into a major sect within the Republic, Once he has a powerful backing, We will go back and claim what is ours," said an Elder with an imposing tone, he was the backing the Keer family depended on and became so arrogant, Vincent's father, Francis Keer.
"Yes, Grandfather I understands"
Returning to the Kingdom of Alba
The King was very sad, Despite searching throughout the kingdom he did not find his wife and son, so he had no choice but to send a word to his father-in-law.

On the other hand an elder next to him seeing how the king was, had a very cloudy mind, they had already made too much noise, but General Keer did not show up despite the noise, it could only mean one thing, the General Keer family along with the Queen were missing, She was not kidnapped but she and her family fled from the Kingdom, If he could come to this conclusion the others could also do so, but the king did not suspect anything and immersed in his false hope. the elder was very disappointed by the kin, this Elder was Prime Minister Frey.
The king reluctantly ordered a guard: "Go to the general's mansion and tell him to come and see me"
"Yes, Your Majesty" Without saying another word, the guard turned around and left at a rapid pace.
But after twenty minutes, the only one who came back was the guard. When Frey saw this, he knew that his assumption was correct and he could not help sighing. I did not know why they were fleeing but this would be a hard blow to the king.
Seeing the guard return alone, the king could not help but frown. "What happened?"
The guard was somewhat nervous "Reporting to his Majesty, I went to the General's mansion, but when I arrived, the mansion was empty, Apart from two guards who guarded the entrance there was no one inside the mansion, When I asked the guards of what happened I was told that they had been paid several coins from someone for being simply on guard for the next two weeks, After that they could go"
When he heard those words, They were like a bolt of lightning striking the king, he finally understood what was happening, His wife had not been kidnapped but had abandoned him and took her son with her. "Frey I leave you in charge of the rest, I need to rest" With that said, without waiting for the response of the other party, The King rose from his throne and left with lifeless eyes to his rooms. He was just going to drink and sleep. In these past few days, he had not slept a wink worrying about his queen and his son and now that he knew the truth, he felt betrayed and all his tiredness overcame him luring him to his sleep.

Frey seeing the kings backfilled with loneliness couldn't help but sigh, he was sure that in these following days, the concubines would take advantage of the situation to get a place in the king's heart. Maybe in a few months, we will have a few births in the Royal family.
With that, Frey took command of the Kingdom and ordered to stop the search and verify the damages that caused by killing so many nobles, Besides that he made a list consisting of people with sufficient merits to grant them the status of nobility to fill the empty positions.
with all these done he prepared to welcome the ambassadors from the sects who would be arriving in two days.

Dungeon Misfits
(Warning: The story is still currently in a poor quality state, read on at your own risk.) After the devastating great war, many people were left with poverty, hardship and starvation. Due to this, miscreants and mendicants were a common occurrence here. Thus at such hard times, many different kinds of desperate people would try to delve and discover various dangerous dungeons. And it was at such times, where different people and monsters converge, that various interesting stories and situations could happen. It could be about an aspiring necromancer seeking to find a place in the dungeon in order to seclude himself to his studies and research on necromancy. It could be a story of a struggling group of bandits, deserters and highwaymen using a dungeon cave as a hideout. Even about a bunch of struggling newbies adventurers stumbling in a dungeon. Or perhaps about a certain diabolist, a witch, and a rogue who are ostracised by others due to their professions, being forced to work together as a team in a dungeon. All the while, encountering even more eccentric people on the way. Different people, different situations, but whatever happens inside the dungeon remains to be seen.

Binary of Life and Death
Monsters, gold, chaos, glory, adventure, what more could attract two of the greatest players of all time to Sugarea, the most popular MMORPG of its time. But everyone makes errors, and unfortunate for these two brilliant players, they have made the grave mistake of not actually sleeping like normal humans and missed out on the very moment the new Dark Legion update would take effect. Or did they? They wake in what seems familiar yet not, but they soon realize their predicament. They are inside their game avatar's bodies! A half-Demon and a Dragonoid are now struggling with more than just power, these two men have to find their new purpose and calling in a completely different world. Will they concur it like ordinary land or will they enlighten the planet into equality? Do figures pull strings in the dark or is everything open to the public eye? Nothing is certain except the unknown, and nothing is ever as it seems... This is an Isekai story, as such, some parts may sound either cliché or similar to others, but I assure you, I tried to prevent that. To make it known, I took quite a lot of inspiration from the light novel/anime Overlord, but that doesn't mean it's a direct rip-off of it. You'll find there to be quite the amount of differences. Just a little heads up as well, you should expect irregular uploads, as it takes me a long time to write each chapter. I am currently trying for once every other week on Sundays around 10:00 A.M. Chapters are usually 7k words and up, with the longest (chapter 3) being 10.3k words. So, if you like to sit down and read a long chapter every two weeks at 10:00 A.M. EST on Sundays, then you can waste your time here! Small disclaimer: Profanity is far and few between, and mostly used by side characters, rarely the main character. When something with gore happens, I describe to the best of my ability, which will only get better the longer I write this... :) Small cuts between perspectives happen, and can hide what some characters do, which will be revealed in future chapters, I'm not that lazy... all the time... There are some parts that are long blocks of text, most, if not all, of them, are characters talking, but I try not to info dump. I know one of the tags says "Psychological", and for the most part, it is, but it's not as prominent as other stories, instead, it's more hidden and scattered, but I did try to make the pieces I did reveal all fit together. Cover art is bound to be changed when I have a good picture to use, so the Yin-Yang is a placeholder for now unless yall wanna gimme something to use *wink wink nudge nudge*. So yeah, please give it a try, as I have nothing better to do with my life, and I am banking solely off of a career in literature and am hoping that I can create a story that can actually be called something more than a child's imagination running wild. The eventual and inevitable end to the story won't be for a long while, at least till chapter 40 or so. I have thought long and hard about the message and themes at play, so I hope you, the reader (who has some amazing hair btw), can enjoy and partake on this adventure with me into my dark empty pit of an imagination.
