Arriving where he found the ore, Grekorio try to recall when he encountered them, he try to remember from which direction they had come from.
After mulling his brain, Grekorio get the answer, and start to walk deep in forest. Each time he find a herb he opens the book and search for the herb after finding it he say out loud, and a window appear showing the herb, and it description, meaning he got it right.
On the way, he notice a lot of troll's trail meaning that he is in the right way. Grunts could be heard around him alerting his distracted mind, he immeadiately start to concentrate on the stealth skill, and sneak around the bushes.
Didn't take long before he meet a troll walking deep in the forest, Grekorio start stalking it.
After half a hour of stalking, the troll arrive at a village with wooden fences around it, inside the village there is only trolls, everything crudely made, but it mean that there is someone ordering them.
'They have society now? For them to develop like this, they would need someone strong that can gain their respect, and intelligent enough to create roles for them.....which means an evolved troll or something like that.'Analyzing the trolls from the alleys while continuing to pursue the same troll, he had an inkling in what to do to complete this quest.
It entered a house, which is the bigger in all village, Grekorio stop in the alley beside the house, seeing the guard in he front door, he shake his head, and start to look for a way to enter the house, without having to look around, he see some crates align in way that make possible to climb on the house roof then jump to the other side, seeing that a thought came to him'It can't be that simple right.'.

Even while thinking that he start to climbing the crates, careful to not make noise, soon reach the roof of the house beside the one that the troll entered.
Looking at the window of the second floor, where he will try to jump, he see the troll that he was stalking reach for something inside his clothes, and take out an ore golden in color, giving it to someone on a throne, respectfully while kneeling.
Grekorio move his eyes a little and see a 5 meters green giant sitting on a throne, it reach for the ore, giving it a serious look, suddenly start laugh(?) out loud, but to Grekorio it's grunts sounded more like cacophony of sounds.
It gave some orders to the kneeling troll in a deep grunt(?), after which the troll hurried away, The giant sit back in the throne and started to admire the ore in it's hands.
Grekorio was dazed for a second, but after he recovered he started to furiously think about what he should do,'I have two option here, one, sneak in the house and kill the giant troll who's probably the king around here. second is to pursue the troll who delivered the ore, it will probably be going back to the mine, and after killing it clear the mine of trolls...'
'If i kill the troll's king, it would make chaos descend in the society since they would not have a leader anymore, and they would know how to use
the Deep Gold Ore, while if i pursue the troll that was ordered find the mine after stalking him and kill it and all others trolls in the mine, they won't have the ore and i will complete the quest, but since the king know of the mine whereabouts,probably, he will send some trolls there.' weighing the pros and cons, he first the the forest map and mark where the village is, then climb down and start to follow the same troll that showed him the way to the village.

Their destination, a mountain, Grekorio noticing their direction had the sudden urge to facepalm, afte thinking back then he found the ore, the direction where the trolls came from were this mountain, but after finding the trolls that he is stalking now, he changed where he was going.
One hour later he found himself at the foot of the mountain with a lot of trolls going around with pickaxe in hand.
He immediately sneaked behind the troll, that he was following while unsheathing his sword silently, he jumped at it's back pushed it's chin up and shoved the sword at the troll's throat, fastly putting a hand on it's mouth to prevent it from grunting.
Draggin the body back at the woods, he started to sneak around the mine to understand the situation there.
Half a hour later.
Grekorio leans on the rocky wall of a cave inside the mine, while summarizing what he had seen.'So while the king is intelligent, he is the only one, this mine there are only trolls mining without a worry, with only mining ores in the mind....*creppy laugh* that make my job easy.'
Grekorio stand up and again use his stealth to go around the mine.
Every now and then you can hear low grunts from inside the mines.
Grekorio stand beside a troll who has it's head sorrounded by blood.
'And it's the last one.'
「Quest completed」
A window appear in front of him confirming his thoughts, he search around the mine one more time to see if he left anything behind, and marking where exactly is the mine before he start to walk out the mine in direction of the village.
On the way there, again each time he find a herb he opens the book and search for the herb after finding it he say out loud, and a window appear showing the herb, and it description, meaning he got it right.
Opening his character icon to distribute his points that he got from the level up.

The apocalypse happened and it was named- The system’s advent
The world either ended or it began when the system came online. People can now be immortal and the laws of reality are intertwined with what the people of earth know as RPG game systems. All of this and yet it is only the begining. What is in store for humanity when everything they thought was just smoke and mirrors turns out to be as real as they are and far more deadly. One man went back in time because of an event that shouldn't be possible to a place he had forgotten. For him it was a chance at redemption for a life he is ashamed of. It was a chance to make things right with the people he couldn't face before it was too late to say sorry. A changed man will attempt to defy logic that he doesn't even realize exists. He tried to be the dashing rogue and failed, he tried for the overbearing shield bearer and was worse than useless, he tried to be the rightous paladin and not even the dark gods would accept him. The only path left was the 'weakest' of them all. Ok so alot of you probably reading this are people who have read my previous works and I can only say 'thank you for your incredible patience' so much before it gets awkward but for those you who don't know this is my third story and no I haven't dropped the other two it's just that tragedy struck when I was writing them and I haven't been able to get my motivation for them back yet so I'm trying this as essentially a jump start to get back into the fight so to speak. I'm really hopefull that I can pull this story off the way I want it to be but only time will tell so here's to hoping, now let's get this show started.

The Shadow Paradigm - Book 1: Project Orb Weaver
Gardening, cooking, innovation, preservation, charity events... Madzistrale, Tom and Gabzryel does it all. But when they encounter the mysterious Shiakar Paradigm Society, a clash of paradigms ensues. Although both groups are aiming to make humanity stand stronger, their ideals and methods could not be further apart. Between the trio's optimistic yet naive ideals, and the SPS's tried-and-true surgical methods, determining the answer which methods can better humanity is a struggle that both parties must resolve in their own ways... Welcome to the 7th revision of my 10+ years ongoing novel trilogy. This revision took out some flawed plot concepts to re-introduce a more down-to-earth, film noir-like ambience, where a battle of wits is what will determine the outcome. It also added instead more in-depth expansion into the lives and mindsets of the characters, especially the heroes (a missing factor in older versions). Third-view limited storytelling was also introduced more prominently over my favoured third-view omnipotent, with each chapters concentrating as much as possible on a single character's point of view instead of head-hopping. So I shall begin uploading the chapters as I finish them; they're edited as much as I can, but there'll most likely be some typos and mistakes. As always, I welcome your comments and critiques, and I hope you enjoy reading that story as much as I did creating it! A parting poem to introduce the story (translated from its original French version): Credit: Les Mots, Mylene Farmer & Seal Firmly, the sky writhes When a mouth begets a death There, I will give my life to hear you To tell you the most tender words When all becomes all alone I'll break my life for a song And to lives that stoop to notice mine I know I will say goodbye But a fraction of this life I would give anything, anytime The universe has its mysteries Words are our lives You could kill a life with words Soul, how would it feel? If our lives are so fragile Words are mysteries Words of feelings Words of love, a temple If one swept the world away One could touch the universe I will tell you how the sun rose high We could with a word become one And for all those words that hurts us There are those that touches us Which illuminates, touches the infinity Even if nothingness exists For a fraction on this life We will give anything, anytime The universe has its mysteries Words are our lives We could kill a life with words Soul, how would it feel? If our lives are so fragile Words are mysteries Words of feelings Words of love, a temple
