《lord fear》5. I changed my mind
Advertisement
POV: vile
The wasps returned with a few captured dwarves, I make a pit in the ground and order the wasps to put them in it. I stand over them until they all notice me and quiet down, I sit down at the edge and start sharping a stick.
“Hello everybody my name is vile and I brought you here to be my workers, you lucky few have the great opportunity to serve me.”
“Go to hell you bastard!” somebody in the pit yelled.
“Zagat bring that person up here.”
“Yez mazter.”
The man is brought out of the pit and is now standing in front of me. He was a strong looking male; I took note of the hatred coming from his eyes as he looked at me. I walked a distance away and faced him.
“I like your spirt mister! You will be my demonstration for today, all you have to do is come and fight me and if you make me admit defeat I will let everyone here go.”
The dwarf smiled and spit on the ground.
“I’ll teach you a thing or two about us dwarves!”
What vile didn’t know was this dwarf was a retired captain. The dwarf kicked off the ground and ran towards vile.
The dwarf threw out a punch at my face; I caught his risk in my hand and snapped it back.
“Ahhhhhhhh!
I giggled. “You make such a funny face when I do this”
I bend his hand back more causing him to sink to his knees. I could feel him struggle to break free from my grip.
“Thank you Mr. Dwarf for playing with me but you use is no longer needed”
I shot my towards his neck, he looked at me with a steal resolve not afraid of what was about to come. I snapped his neck making his head turn sharply to the side. I picked up his body and threw it in the pit. A female dwarf screamed could be heard with a few others cursing me. I didn’t care or felt nothing towards these people, maybe if they were mine to control only then I would care slightly. Even the creatures around me are only my playthings and luckily putting those under my control helped me unlock common knowledge. It may be little but it will come in handy to understand a few things.

I went through my head to think about some of the powers I have unlocked recently. I wanted to get a better understanding of them.
LAIR MAKING: allows me to create a home using my magic to shape the environment around me.
LAIR DEFENSE: makes it so I can set runes traps and defense runes on doors and stuff.
LAIR OFFENSE: I can send my lair guards out to attack things outside of my lair. That could come in handy.
LAIR GUARD GOLEM: gives me the power to create lifeless creatures using the elements. I can summon theses creature using rifts that connect between me and them. And shape them how I want. Depending on how I make them depends on what they are going to be good at. So if I made a skinny golem I think it would be good for speed, Seems there powered by my magic and runes also.
TAME: allows me to basically tame creatures and have them as a companion. I could also make them into summons. I would be able to send them into a dimensional plan and call them when I need them. To do this I would have to create a signature with my magic and place it onto their souls.
RUNE: runes are symbols of power that can amplify magic to be stronger. When I use runes it comes natural to me like an extra arm. I just think about the action I want and the runes form into what I want. Like today for example I wanted something to protect me from the arrows and the runes formed on their own. Runes allows you to make things stronger, the doors in front of my lair have runes that make the doors strong against magic attacks.
I was really interested in the golems but for now I had to put a hold on my plans for this village. I walked back to the pit and jumped inside.

“Hey”
The people looked at me in shocked and confusion. I started killing them.
“hahahaha I changed my mind about you all.”
They had nowhere to run, they could only die as I moved and jabbed my hand into their chest. Women men and children lifeless bodies filled the hole. There was only one dwarf left.
“why are you doing this I thought you were going to keep us alive.”
“I was but I had a change of plans”
“Please don’t kill me! Please, please, please”
“I am going to kill you; you’re not any special then the people who died befoe you”
“so all this death was for nothing”
I moved and stabbed my hand through her throat; blood flowed out onto my hand. It was warm and thick. Her eyes looked straight into mine; I could see the life fading away from her.
“It wasn’t for nothing, it was for my enjoyment.” I smiled at her.

I will not be eaten
Litchi is your ordinary Royal Road addict. She can’t resist the call of a new chapter even when she needs to work. Because of too many new responsibilities she promises one week without reading. Sadly, she cracks in three days, because of an Azarinth Healer notification. Taking out her phone she starts avidly reading. It’s just a small promise, she will try it another time. Nothing should happen. Say that to the goblin that tries to eat your face, Litchi! You should keep your promise! She was used to food jokes on her name but it seems that this time her destiny is to be eaten. ---- Hello future reader! I didn’t find a new good isekai so why not create my own? I am an RR addict and amateur writer (in French) and today I decided to publish a story. You will have my eternal gratitude for any advice or constructive comments on the story! One of my objectives is to have developed characters, duo or trio make a fantastic way to character growth. So, I will try to create a deep relationship between a few of them. The first few chapters have a lot of combat, but other characters will soon arrive. Those first few chapters are made to build tension and create Litchi's first motivations. This story has the plot written to the end and important characters already shaped. This story is short in comparison to the majority of RR fantasy stories. Update every two days until I have no more chapters in my pocket. Average chapter length: 2200 words Warning: The grammar can be bad, IMPORTANT CHARACTERS CAN (Will) DIE, contain philosophical conversation as the characters stumble upon morals dilemmas. I hope I will see you soon in the comments and thank you in advance for reading Litchi’s journey. Have a nice day! :)

Adelaide
The entries here are transcribed from the log of Marie Ruiz, first mate of the Adelaide. It was definitely, definitely not published without her permission or knowledge by a certain lovable artificial intelligence for the purpose of sharing it with my AI friends on other ships who follow it like a soap opera. No way, no how. Remember guys, don’t go spreading this around too much. Only pass it on to those you can trust. God forbid this should ever end up on a public network… (Adelaide is a science fiction web serial featuring the adventures of a crew of smugglers. In space. It’s on the softer end of the soft/hard sci-fi spectrum because the author got a C in physics. Updates every other Sunday.)
