《Restarting life as a peasant》Chapter 9
Advertisement
City smeld crap, latrine carriers either didn't exist in this city or more likely they didn't do their jobs. Tim and I walk through the roads. I didn't intend to be here more than absolutely necessary. So I asked for the market. In the market Tim was surprised he asked "Why is everything so expensive here?" I said to Tim "I will explain why that is later" then I got in front of a blacksmiths bench. Prices were absolutely insane. He demanded a gold coin for a knife like one of mine. I showed him one of my knives and asked him how much he would pay. He inspected the knife and said "I give you 50 silver, no bargain kid." I said "How many you can buy" He said "How many you have?" I said "Ten" and he was very surprised. He said "I can buy it all" I laughed at him "I was kidding, I only have this one" He sulk took the knife and gave me 50 silver. Tim said "I worked nearly half a year and I got 2 golds 50 silver you work at the same time and…" He stopped speaking "We could have left this bad smelling place now, why didn't you accept his offer." I said "If he wasn't sure he could sell them quickly and would get a good profit from it, he would be willing to buy this many knives.” We get into a good inn. Rented a room with two beds. I said to Tim "I want money, my only idea for someone who would buy this many knives is some unsavory city gang. So I am going to dangerous places. You buy what you need, then return home quickly" I dropped my crate in the middle of the room. An inn like this had a reputation to protect so I wasn't worried.

I walked around the pubs, and brothels. Then I see Tim. A woman a few years older than him was holding his arm. I guessed that the woman was a honeytrap, and Tim was the victim. She brings him to the gambling table in the garden of an inn. He started playing timidly. Win a few rounds, while the woman is constantly pouring his cup with alcoholic drinks. While winning a point came. He put everything on the table. Including my not willingly given gift. He takes the dice, throws it. The other man threw his dice. While this happened I came close. It was snake eyes, one, one, the best dice in the game they played. Tim was scared screaming and crying and the other man said "Take the defeat like a man" I just grabbed the dice in a moment, took a wooden mug and crashed them while everybody looked in awe. I show what remains of the dice shouting "This dice is loaded! Look at this!" He started shouting back. "No, this is a setup, lets play with other dice" I said "I have two conditions, first we're going to double the bet, second I am going to play '' Tim looked at me with desperation. In my previous life I never gambled, because the house always wins and I already have bad luck. But this time this wasn't a gamble. Inn owner herself bringed a new set of dice. Both he and I weighed and controlled it with our hands. He threw the dice 6.6 came, he started laughing maniacally only thing better than 6.6 in this game is 1.1 I throw the dice let them spin a little then magic. With magic dice came 1.1. He was terrified. Started shouting and crying and I said to him "Lose like a man" Inn was probably working like a casino and no casino wants to show as a place people get played in front of their customers. So the innkeeper said "Pay up scum" He said "Please I don't have enough to pay 3.5 gold. She said "He doubled and you agreed, 7 gold" then two bulky guys put hands on the blackleg. He looked at me with fear and started to beg "Please young master, forgive me" The Innkeeper looked at me, and asked "What you want to do?" I asked back "Do you have a cleaver?" She birgned a bulky cleaver, I said to him "Which hand do you like the least?" He was terrified but managed to say Left" I said to bulky guys `` Hold his right hand" Then he dropped acting. He was probably willing to get a good beating for not giving me seven golds, but getting his arm chopped off was too far for him. He said to the girl "Give him" she just gave me seven golds. I said to Tim "Take your stuff"

{The Dragon Within} (Completed)
Meeting his fate at the hands of seven great heroes, the wicked drake now stands in Death's hall. Met with the Grim Reaper itself. Defeated and its pride broken, the drake doesn’t beg or grovel, it simply awaits judgement. It waits for the God of the afterlife to send it on its way, to either the heights of bliss and peace or where it knew it would be sent. The depths of agony and torture, the halls of Tartarus, the father of monsters. Grim looked up from its oaken desk and down at the creature that would have otherwise, if grown wiser and older, matched the reaper itself in power. Its faceless guise, hidden by a black hood and whirling shadows, it briefly stared at the drake. “You are unfit for the sky yet also too fit for the abyss,” Grim spoke, its voice a cracking whisper. “Your time came too soon, the actions you have taken will lead your world to ruin…Be reborn, pitiful serpent. Yet remember what you have done, see what your actions have made that realm into. Let me show you, how your greed and gluttony have warped such a wonderful place and time.” Grim raised its black-feathered pen towards the beast “Be reborn, as the weak pitiful creature you should have been born as. Take this both as a punishment and…a learning experience. For failure, can be the best teacher.” The drake took a step back, hoping to escape this cruel fate. Yet none escaped Death, less so its embodiment. Screaming shadows engulfed his form, ripping away at his body and shape. Fangs of darkness sinking deep into his draconic flesh, warping it, changing him into something else… Opening his eyes, the wicked drake felt none of its power, none of its magic and none of its might. As it stood at the edge of a cliff, looking down upon a ruined valley of rot and miasma. It glanced down at itself, seeing none of its sturdy scales or sharp claws. The drake had been reborn... As a Human. Will also be posting on CreativeNovels found here; CrN Where chapters will be posted earlier than RRL.
