Kyle woke up a few hours later.
'Ahhh shit.' Kyle was upset.
'I don't have time for this.' Kyle was in the same room he was in the last time this happened, but he could tell he was out for longer this time. It was already dark when he was going home, but he wasn't even in the 1st district. There was no reason slave traders should have been grabbing children in the 2nd district.
"Aye, shit mayun, weez got dem kidz en der." Kyle could hear someone speaking an even worse version of the human language in the next room.
"Waz dey here you?" It made sense though, the human empire was larger than the kingdom, and it encompassed more lands. Over 3,000 years different ways of speaking popped up.
"Shiat mayun, it's don't madda." The men in the other room were going to start talking about something, and Kyle looked over to see that Beth was still asleep.
Kyle and Beth both had their feet and hands bound. This was an upgrade from the last time where only his hands were. The kidnappers also used a stronger sleeping poison, so they were better funded than the last ones.
"Oksey, it's reel asey." There were 3 men in the other room and they were going to be going over a plan of some sort. Kyle had really woken up at the best possible time.
"Whut we do es, wez kill dat boy and pud em enfront dey shop rite, en den wez get dah big coins."
"Dayum, dats gud."
"Shati, you da brainz."
The two congratulated the third for the great plan, and Kyle could understand the gist of if. They were going to kill him and leave him at the Valheart's shop, then demand coins from the Valhearts to get Beth back. It was a good plan, but they just happened to have chosen the 5th hero to kidnap. Luck was not on their side.

Kyle looked over at Beth and could see her with her eyes wide open. She too understood what was happening and was very frightened. Beth quickly looked between the door and Kyle, not knowing what to stop at. In here head, Kyle was going to be killed soon so that her parents would pay more money for her.
Kyle did not have many options for what to do right now. They both had gags in their mouth so they could not make sound or cast spells, but this did not apply to Kyle. Beth did not know that Kyle could cast spells without chanting, so what he was going to do would come as a big surprise.
Kyle used the tangerers to untie the bindings he had on and then took the gag from his mouth with his hands.
"Shhhh" Kyle said to Beth and put put his finger over his mouth to signal to her to be silent. Kyle then undid Beth's bindings and took the gag from her mouth too.
Kyle's use of spells in this situation was very limited. He could not use area affect spells because Beth would be hurt too, and if he went up to the door the kidnappers would know something was wrong. The reason magic was not all powerful in combat was because of two things, long chant times and the inability to aim area of affect spells.
Kyle cast [Silence] on himself and went to the door. He really wished [Invisible] was a status spell he could cast, but it was impossible. Kyle crouched beneath the window in the door and prepared to act quickly. Lightning magic would not work because it would be attracted to the metal door, and fire magic would obstruct his vision too much. Kyle was going to go with Ice magic.

'[Frost]' Kyle popped up from under the window and silently shot his spell into the next room. He used a large amount of power, and even though it was not as powerful as [Zero], Kyle was certain it took out the men in the other room. Kyle then removed the Silence status.
"Beth, come on!" Kyle waved to Beth as he used a tangerer to open the door.
"Right." Beth was still scared and did not understand what Kyle did, but she followed him.
It was a scary event for her, but now she just needed to escape this dungeon with Kyle.

8 223The Second Coming of Fate [A High Fantasy Story]
Prologue Arc: The Day That Begins Your Fate - COMPLETED Story Arc 1: Chaos in the Lamorian Kingdom - ONGOING Please consider following/leaving a rating. I plan to turn this into a long lasting series, and it would really mean a whole lot to me. :) ----- Having succumb to amnesia, Galvin one day appears in the Grand Forest east of the capital kingdom Lamora. For the next two months, he lives a perfectly carefree yet boring life until one fateful day changed everything. Encountering all sorts of characters and dealing with all sorts of shenanigans, Galvin begins to experience visions of what appears to be the future. With this newfound power in a world full of magic, yet plagued with war, discrimination, and brutality, will Galvin be able to change fate…or die trying? ----- Do you like stories where the protagonist doesn't start out strong and is deeply character driven (with a LOT of inner monologues)? A story that has its fair share of comedic and dark moments? Well then you've come to the right place! However, if you're looking for LitRPG mechanics, then unfortunately, this story doesn't contain too many of them. The dynamics of the story will be based on real life physics and mechanics (with a bit of magic of course!) Also, I delve deeply into a lot of disturbing topics, so readers do be warned. However, if any of this sounds interesting to you, then please come by and give my story a read. ----- Expect releases as soon as possible (which is like 4 - 10 days). Just know that I'm writing this story as it progresses, so a lot of first drafts are to be expected. :D
8 158Reborn in Another World as a (Colorless) Demon Prince
He made his break through and proved the naysayers wrong. But just as everything in life was falling into place, he died. A strange being meets him in the in-between, and he is given a second chance at life. The world he's reborn into in full of wonderous monsters and adventures to be had. However, he's not human anymore, but a demon. And not just any demon, but a Colorless prince. Even worse, demons and humans don't exactly...get along. War looms between the two nations, and threatens to capsize his life into chaos and blood. If he wants to make anything of himself, he will need to work very, very hard. It's a shame he's not sure what to do or where he wants to go. Please note: The story is a slow burn and only starts to pick up after chapter 8. Also, if you like Re:Zero, give this one a shot. It is also a weak to strong story.

Gangs run the slums and fear keeps the homeless out of sight. Poverty rates are increasing every year. Something has to be done, and Edam's friend, Saavi, thinks she knows what it is.

8 147Earth Exodus
Elliot isn't the first one taken, he was the last, or one of them at least. Careless divines, gods, or higher powers had been snatching humans through numerous means over the years. Those that returned brought minor tokens of their previous power if anything at all. Over time unrestrained magic became commonplace on earth. Which must have brought attention to us. The earth is ravaged by increasing levels of rogue magics, divines, and a war over resources and experience. Eventually resulting in a mass exodus of the remaining powerless humans by a coalition of gods.Now translocated to Vauthia where everyone has been given a path to power. They're met with an unfortunate reality. They've only been rescued from one dying world to be tasked with saving the new one. While at the same time they're apparently supposed to compete with one another. Meanwhile Elliot wasn't just given a path to power. He was given a choice. The opportunity for true power is offered. When as he reaches for it the power isn't all it's cracked up to be.Systemless in a world where everyone else has access to one Elliot must grapple with a multitude of problems from without and within. The 'gods' might actually be incompetent, uncaring, downright malicious, or all three. His power is constantly three steps behind those who chose the quick path to power. There's also the antisocial tendencies he's brought with him from earth. Can he trust the 'god' who seems to be taking him under their wing? Will he be able to catch up to his fellow earthlings who're ever increasing in power? Is it possible he may just break out of his shell along the way?*** What to expect ***The initial start will be quite slow, building the setting, history, and individuals involved. There is a small bit of progression in these early chapters for the MC, but more along the lines of figuring out how their systemless power works. though once the story gains traction it won't stop.*** Don't tell Elliot, but ***Elliot hates to admit it but he's very clearly antisocial. Not to mention troubles with thinking that stem from several un-diagnosed disorders he'd rather believe don't exist.*** Image Copyright *** //In this satellite image released by Copernicus Sentinel imagery, 2020 twitter page dated Dec. 31, 2019, shows wildfires burning across Australia.
