《My second chance is as Dungeon Master?》Chapter 11 - Manslayer
Advertisement
Elias's seeing a menacing looks from a deformed goblin, that green monster grinned after realizing that he can’t move any part of his body. It grabs tightly and swings its sword towards his head — if that hit him, he’ll die.
There nothing he can do to stop the goblin from attacking him. However, even though he's in front of the death door, he doesn’t close his eyes — he won't show any sign of weakness. This is a mentality from a person who survives three big wars — even when you die, you won’t give any satisfaction to your enemy by afraid or plead mercy.
He's staring the goblin without any fear or screaming — waiting for his death to come.
However, what he wait wasn’t happen. A man instantly appears behind that goblin, he grabs its hand and cracks its bone. Although that monster's face becomes pale from agony, there is no voice out from its mouth. Before that goblin opens its mouth, that man took its sword and stab it towards its skull.
The goblin’s blood gushing from each its pore while many internal organs splattered — some of them covered Elias body and face.
“Well, I did it too much again, I’ll need to erase her memories again after this,” that man mumbles after seeing his mess.
With Elias new title as a dungeon master, he can perceive mana with ease. Right now, he can’t feel any mana from this man. He certain this man is human, after all, every creature which stays long in this world has mana inside their body. However, the fact that man is human doesn’t mean he’s his ally.
Elias tries to move his eyes to see that man face — seeing his identity.
Elias wants to discern whether that man is enemy or not. However, the goblin’s blood which fell into his eyes makes him couldn’t see who is this man face. Nevertheless, he knows this man isn't normal, someone who can kill goblin before it can let out a sound in this stage can be counted by hands.

It’s good to have many strong humans for their wars later, but in this stage, humanity is not yet united. The strong still oppress the weak, while the talented goes solo hunt without caring about human races as a whole — they thought this world as a challenge for himself to become stronger. This is the stage of humanity's foolishness, even some heroes in his previous life weren’t exempted from this nonsense.
Some of the heroes were the oppressor of weak people before realizing how dire the human race situation is, and only when it's already too late, they start to create a proper organization to save the human race.
If this man is one of those oppressors or any coldblooded killers, he could kill him only to get another rune.
Nevertheless, whether that man is an ally or not, there one thing he can do to change this situation become favorable to him — negotiate. This situation is different from the previous goblin who can’t be reasoned with — now, he deals with a human. He starts to rummage for information which can make this man consider him as an asset that better alive than dead.
However, before he let out any words from his mouth, a familiar voice flow into his ears, “Are you okay Elias?”
Elias knows well this voice — Emily’s voice, her tone is full of concern. There is a tinge of happiness knowing that his master is still alive, but after remembering his situation, he becomes slightly angry.
“Why are you back here?” he asks with a strong voice.
“Hey, you can survive because she wants to go back here,” that man angry voice flow to his ears.
“Brother,” Emily reprimand that man.
After hearing that word, Elias understands what happened. Emily met with her brother when running to the south, luckily her brother is quite strong, which make them decide to save him.

He let out a sigh of relief. After all, this means that man isn’t his enemy.
‘I knew master has a big brother, but she never tells me who is he in the previous life. It seems I’ll know him for the first time in this life.’
While he's thinking about that, Emily tries to close his open wounds with some rags. He sits and leans back to a tree, after a while, the blood on his eyes start to subside which makes him can see again. He sees Emily and her brother chit-chat next to him, below shades of trees — this tranquil scenery even makes him forget that they just earlier pursued by goblins. However, after taking a close look at Emily’ brother, he can’t contain his surprise.
“Kim Hansoo?” he’s taken aback and can feel his wound slightly opening.
How can he keep his calm, this man is the most famous and infamous human in his previous life.
The man in front of him is one of three first dungeon killer, a superhuman, and the best assassin on earth. It’s known fact that he was attacked by a dungeon master after transferred to this world without any time to think, but when Elias notices his clean clothes — no blood or sweat, he finally realizes how strong this man is — every rumor about Hansoo in his previous life is only scratching the surface.
Finally, he understands how his master can escape from those goblins in his previous life and stay alive for a long time even with her foolish kindness — it’s because her brother is that Hansoo, Kim Hansoo — the highest kill-count holder for killing dungeon masters.
“Oh, please don’t move, it’ll worsen your wounds,” Emily says after noticing his voice.
“Okay,” he realizes that his wounds are bad, “Is that your brother? He looks like an Asian.” Elias asks because their face wasn’t alike.
“Yes, he’s half Korean. Did you ever meet him before? It seems you know his Korean name.”
After he got asked by Emily, he realizes his slip of the tongue. Even though Kim Hansoo was very famous after transmigrated to this world, but right now, people who know his Korean name is either his close family or higher people from Underworld because he uses the different name in everyday life.
Elias becomes slightly panic after looking at Hansoo expression which full of suspicion. After all, Hansoo was known as the cold-blooded human killer before the second war — the war that cost his youngest sister’s life.
Before the second war, he often kills human he doesn't like or thought as a threat even without any proof.
If he says the wrong explanation now, he doesn’t doubt Hansoo will kill him immediately.

Valor and Violence
Valor and Violence is a series of short stories following different, yet all equally colourful, characters set in the same world. Birth of a Legend, the first short, follows Captain Erskine Erwell, a newly promoted Captain in the Calandorian Royal Navy, charged with protecting his people from all who would do them harm. Great news for the Calandorian citizens, bad news for the Skjar reavers that ravage the shores in search of slaves. But when a small reaver fleet slips the net and escapes to the southern jungles of Marduk, Erwell must fight a war on two fronts; one against the raiders, and a far more difficult war against the hostile landscape. If he can't find allies in this strange land, he may end up being the one in need of saving. The first part of the second short story will be uploaded on Saturday, the 11th of June, following Ferez Ahud, an aspiring young battlemage charged with the unsavoury job of 'terminating' a rogue member of his college. But how this nobody of a mage became a fugitive remains a mystery, and when the answer is discovered, the tables are turned and the hunter becomes the prey. I'll be uploading chapters of more in-universe short stories each week or as close to, work permitting. Content Guidelines: course language and violence

TRX's Adventures
Set during the 1980s, it narrates the daily life of Mathias, a boy with "psychic powers", and his friends, which ends when something happens that changes the course of our protagonist's life. ... This is titled this way because some letters of the characters' names form the TRX of the title... Although there is one character who literally has that name, it is also named after her. Ah, and if some parts sounds a bit weird because of some words, tell me. This also contains some simple drawings made by me. This is going to have a lot of edits, apparently.... And maybe I'll add a couple of stuff. I'll try to make this be good... Or, at least, fun. ... Also, the older version will stay, but it kind of spoils the plot (although it changed in many ways), so if you want to read it before this... Do it at your own risk.
