《Rise of the Three Gods》Soul bound weapons! Disciple?!
Advertisement
Ariel the grabbed his hammers, They had patterns inscribed into them! The forge also lighted up as well! This surprised Vince! This was no simple blacksmithing, but he did not say anything , it was a taboo to interrupt and alchemist or blacksmith during his work!
He grabbed the sword! threw it inside the forge! The sword instantly melted! returning back to its original form! He then added the starlight essence! And started hammering! He hammered for so long and with much force! Vince started counting and Ariel only stopped at ten thousand! He then added the metallic lotus and two blue looking orbs! Lightning broke out instantly! Ariel's arms had tattoos glow into them andthey supressed the lightning , he then started chanting an incantation and forge glowed so bright!
Ariel then melded the sword into the wanted form and started hammering ten thousand times again! It took a while and at that last hammer one could hear lightning and thunder!
Ariel looked a lot paler but the sword was finished, he then screamed:
" Bind it by your blood now!!"
Vince reacted quite fast and bit down a chunk of his flesh from his hands and threw blood towards the katana which calmed down! Vince actually felt the katana binded to him! he felt the sword! it was still only a 1 star weapon! with all those materials yet 1 star! this surprised him a lot but he did not doubt the weapon's power!
"It is not a normal weapon! it is the first weapon created by a technique i spent my entire lifetime on!
IT is now in a baby state! it will grow along with you so treat it well! it Evolves by eating rare metals and lightning cores!"
"Thank you! You used your own cores! how can I pay you back?" asked Vince grateful and excited.

" By treating my sword well! and by using it to rise above any other in this kingdom!"
" I promise you it will rise above any in this continent!"
Ariel looked deeply into Vince's calm eyes! and He laughed:" ahahah worth it! so worth it!"
" Name the sword now! it needs a name!"
"you created it so you name it!"
" alright!" Ariel was not an artificial person , he thought then said :
" its name shall be Soul devourer from now on! It shall develop its consciousness thanks to your superior soul power! its inherent ability is related to soul power like you! And lightning attribute is boosting its speed and power!"
"how did you know?"
" the technique i used requires soul power in order to create a seed into the weapon making it different but it comes at a price! my life force! don't worry! I am already on the edge of life and death! So using this little left to create weapons that make history is a deal I'll always take!"
" Thank you so much!" Vince bowed!
The sould devourer was a katana with a blue gem mixed with purple embeded into is handle. It was quite small and did not change the shape much but strikes of small lightning appeared on the sword.
" hahaa ! No big deal young man! what are your names?"
" I apologise for being rude! my name is Vince and this is my little sister Amelia!"
" Good names! I shall rest for now! I'll build you a weapon each day!"
"sir Ariel, I promise you this! This world shall remember you as the creator of the strongest weapons! that is my oath to you!" Vince said solenmly, he rarely gave promises but he lived up to every single one of them!

" Thank you!" Ariel then left
The second weapon he created was named the Sky crushing axe!
The third was Heavon piercer bow!
The fourth was Tsunami staff!
Each of these weapons were soul bound weapons that required life force and 2 magical core of certain element to make! Ariel has given up his entire savings making these weapon but he was joyful! As Vince said Fate plans what it plans yet destiny plays its role and takes!
Aftaer finishing the staff he could no longer walk! so Vince helped him onto his bed. Ariel was short of breath yet he sternly asked after some time:
" Little Amelia, come here"
Amelia came closer to him :
"my greatest regret after indulging my lonely life into the abstract realm of smithing is not passing my legacy on! you area little girl and not fit for smithing ! yet you are a talented young girl in soul power thanks to your lineage! You are even more talented than pure blood spiritual beings! so I pass to you this book which has all my achievements in soul power! and this jade bracelet which nourishes the soul! And when you break the seal inside ,which i could not do, in the future it will surely help a lot! it's a treasure!"
" I don't want treasure! i want uncle to live!" Amelia cried while Ariel smiled.
" Vince , You as well , have to learn from that book! it suits your potential as well! And i hand you this book which has all my smithing techniques in hope that you pass it to a righteous man! He has got to have innate supernatural power! And a technique that multiplies his strength! this is necessary for my legacy!"
" Sir Ariel, my brother Cross fits your description rather well, may I ask for you take him on as a disciple?"
" haha ,cough! fate sure has its twists! cough! sure i do! i rather trust your judgement!"
"Then I bow to you in his place and he said that he will surely not let you, his master, down! and will be sure to make your legacy known and respected by everyone! he will study smithing seriously!"
" what! where is he?" asked Ariel surprised!
" I can communicate with him even though we are far away! our souls are linked!"
"hahaha! this is indeed a joyful end! Twins with soul links, now I am sure his talent is as good as yours!"
" actually we're triplets! "
"hahahaha! cough! A joyful end indeed! The three of you shall rise with my weapons along side you! a shame i won't get to see this!"
"Sir Ariel, I have a request!"
"Oh! what is it" this surprised Ariel he was on his last breath and could not do much anymore!
" will you take us as adopted son and daughter?"
Ariel's eyes widened up and tears formed! he then said with smile between tears!
"MY HONOR! MY PLEASURE! "
"Adopted father!" Vince and amelia both called.
they both hugged him and he actually got up and hugged them back! he then started laughing:
"hahahaahahaha a rather fitting end! hahahaha" He was laughing from happiness as he slowly passed away!
Vince was indeed affected! He bowed for another whole day not moving an inch! Amelia cried on the other hand!
Vince then took Ariel's corpse and dug a grave and buried him inside! he then made a pannel written in it:
"Ariel : Legendary BlackSmith! Father to Vince and Amelia! Master to Cross!"

The Vitaean Chronicles - Volume I: The Sanguine Prince
NOTE: Chapters 02 - 19 are currently slated for review and rewrite following the Conclusion of Act I. Please bear this in mind! When tragedy strikes Arcturus Valoura, he is ripped from his carefree existence and thrown into a world of politics and peril, where today's friend is tomorrow's foe. Bereft of the knowledge and skills needed to survive in his new reality, he will need to find his place within a realm that mixes magic and science in impossible ways. He will need to learn the secrets of the mysterious System that allows him to guide his potential for growth even as he struggles to unlock the powers needed to keep himself alive. In the darkest, and most desolate places of an ancient land he will have to find the answers to forbidden questions, and terrible secrets long purged from the histories of mankind. And in so doing, shake the very foundations of reality itself. Release Schedule: Tuesdays (I may post on off-days if I get a lot done). Advanced Chapters available on Patreon starting May 4th 2021. Discord Community: https://discord.gg/3tHKHAx7Ye The Vitaean Chronicles are a debut LitRPG High Fantasy series written with the intent of filling a niche I've yet to see filled anywhere else. This is my first novel of this kind, so please be patient with me. Throughout this story, I will endeavour to create an evolving and expansive narrative anchored around believable characters, compelling plotlines, and a consistent and sensible magic system. The purpose of this work is to create what I believe to be a relatively unique piece of fiction, drawing inspiration from many great stories that have come before from the likes of Tolkien, Jordan, Hertbert, Goodkind, Pratchett, Martin, and several others. My goal is not to create a masterpiece, but simply to create a story that someone can read and re-read with the same joy, same frustration, and same investment each time. This story will contain violence, politics, Shakespearian drama, tongue-in-cheek references, adult content, and well-crafted relationships of both platonic and romantic natures. I will not promise you will like every choice I make. I can only guarantee that I will do my best to create a story I, and you, can be proud of. As I progress, I will have room to incorporate fan-made characters for those interested in making their mark within the tapestry of this tale (with the customary disclaimer that they do so while waiving any rights to future profit, lol). Thank you to Royal Road for giving me the platform to do that, and thank you dear readers past, present, and future for choosing to come on this journey with me. Finally, just to cover myself: This work is Copyrighted to the Author herein known as 'Hannibal Forge', and recreation, distribution, or re-release of any material herein in a commercial or public capacity absent permission from the Author can and will be prosecuted to the full extent of the Law.

Life is but a Dream
Sometimes, when you close your eyes to sleep, you find yourself in a dream. You may not remember the dream, but for those precious moments, or perhaps seemingly years, that is your life. Yuclaus finds himself rocked to sleep while returning home on a public bus. As he falls into a deep slumber, his heart slowing down, he jerks awake. Where he finds himself is a world full of various creatures, races, mysteries, laws of physics, and creations so fantastical, it could only be a dream. Yet with every person he meets, with every encounter, he realizes how lifelike this world is. He starts subconsciously accepting this as his reality, but is that really wise? No matter how you look at it, this world could be nothing but a dream. Disclaimer: There is a profanity warning. If you are worried about swearing in every dialogue, fear not. In order to capture a character's reaction properly, I felt I needed them to swear. As of now there are three uses of profanity. There are also multiple times a swear word is started, but not finished. For example: "bi—".

Tethered Souls
All humans are connected to the ether, the realm of magic, by invisible, intangible tethers. Tethers are a reflection of humanity, and etheral magic resists what it is to be human. The more 'human' you are and display, the more your tether constricts, restricting the flow of ether. Utilizing ether draws out the human psych, making it extremely difficult to use ether dynamically and for long periods of time. Burning ether allows a person strength unlike any other, sharpens the mind more than any enhancement drug, and allows the person to directly influence the physical world around them.Hugh Perigrine is unique. Orphaned at the age of 1, Hugh is a ward of the Imperial Empire and an acolyte to the Imperial Library. For reasons unbeknownst to him, he does not experience the world in the same way as his peers. He doesn't care for the war with the rebel armies. He doesn't feel the need to vocalize complaints. He doesn't hunt for gossip and there is no object that he cares enough about to desire. He does not fantasize. He is simply unlike everyone else. But Hugh can see things that others cannot, and he understands impossible forces at work around him. Hugh's entire being is latent with etheral power, and he is at the forefront of what is thought of to be possible and impossible.There is however, something that Hugh covets - the meaning behind who he is, why he exists, and where he comes from.
