'All others times i could use tricks to get out of danger, but this time it's not so simple.'sighing inwardly, getting in a stance his arm touchs his belt, feeling the cold iron from the throwing knives, gave him an idea.
'Maybe i can use a trick again.'
Glancing at the darkness of the room.
Grekorio look again at the king, elaborating better his plans, but king unpleased with the wait for Grekorio attack, initiate the fight with a horizontal slash.
Grekorio could only crouch down as low as he can, and soon feeling the sword passing above him, he lifted his head and noticed a opening after the slash, but it was just for a moment, before he could do anything it attacked again.
Getting up and leaping back to get some distance, the troll attack missed again, it is getting a little annoyed by the monkey agility, Grekorio again noticed the same thing again, and again in just a moment it's gone.
Thrusting his sword at the ground wielding only the saber in his left hand, Grekorio throw 4 knives at the trolls face,
it lightly lift the sword to block, making the knives bounce off to the side.
Chopping at Grekorio, it's attacks fall short, only hitting the ground, annoyed, it grunt at Grekorio, probably trying to taunt him, only to fail.
Angry the king roar as it start to hack like crazy on Grekorio direction.
Even though, it's attacking wildly, it has longer reach in it's attacks than Grekorio, not giving him a chance to counter attack.
After suffering under the troll attack for a while, he remember something simple he has throwing knives, he reaches with his right hand for the knives on his belt taking 4 knives ,while leaping back, in mid-air he throw 2 knives aiming for the throat.

The king noticing this, lift his sword, and block the knives. After defending it's throat, it start to prepare to kill the little bastard that keep annoying it.
Before it could chop Grekorio in half, it see another little thing going for it's eyes.
While the throw it was distracted with the knife, Grekorio jump again, but this time forward. While taking more 3 knives from the belt.
The troll turn it's eyes back to Grekorio, seeing that he's not running away anymore, it used the sword like a baseball bat, probably trying to transform Grekorio in meat paste.
Grekorio glue himself to the floor again, this time after the sword from the troll pass by him, he didn't even lift his head before throwing 2 knives at the troll.
The troll lifting it's sword again to defend itself, didn't notice Grekorio using it's knees as a platform for jumping.
Grekorio use all the strength he could muster in a hurry to jump as high as he could.
Jumping 3 meter high, he is on eyelevel with the troll now, suprising it, and before it could react, he had already throwed his last 2 knives that was on his hand.
Soon the knives are already upon it's eyes, when the knives hit it's eyes.
The troll's king lift it's head and let out a mournful roar, and in a angry response, it lift it's sword in a upwards slash, ear piercing sound from the sword speed show how fast the slash was.
Grekorio only defended his chest with his saber, and couldn't even react correctly as he was already flying upwards, embedded in the ceiling, yet the scene from above gave him a weird feeling, his eyes soon becoming blurred until there's no light left.
In his mind, he keep remembering the lightning strike, so suddenly, silently and majestic, it keep repeating for a long time inside him.

On outside his mind, his body started moving, keeping the soulless eyes, he positioned his saber on the front of him, slowly lifting as he was descending.
The troll again slashed upwards, it can't see and can only trust it's instict.
But even if it could see now the following scene would only made it only see a blur.
Grekorio as he as descending and the saber was above his head, suddenly his speed increased leaving only a blur, a streak on the troll body, and the floor a web-like crack that keep on expanding.
Grekorio eyes soon get it's light back, the weird feeling go away, and the memories from the past 10 seconds flow in his head.
'It happened again, huh.' before he could continue his monologue, the ground crack under him, he look down and see the cracking rapidly spreading across the room, he hurry to retrieve his sword, and sheathing it and his saber,concentrating in the upper left of his vision he can see the his HP, and after looking at it he break in cold sweat while thanking his luck because it showed「HP 5/100」, he turn around to look at the troll.
Seeing it in it's death throes, he move his eyes to the sword beside the troll, he quickly get it and wielding it he ends the troll suffering, quickly searching around the room, while ignoring the 「Quest completed」window in the corner of his vision, not finding anything worth, he start to walk to the door, but before he could reach the door, the floor finally go down.
Falling the height of 6 meters can kill him at this moment, he hurriedly tried to find a way out of this situation, he crazily look around, he see the body of the troll, he quickly get on it before he fall down, the floor started to fall from the middle, while he was beside the throne when it began, and the door is across the room.
Putting the golden greatsword in the inventory,'Why i forgot about the potions? Something so important.', While regretting his forgetfulness, the floor start to fall under him, he can only close his eyes and wait for his luck.
Soon feeling the impact from the hard floor under him, he opens his eyes and concentrate on his HP bar, 「HP 2/100」, sighing in relief, he get off the body of the troll, and scan around him, only to moments later a smile that almost reach his forehead appear on his face.
While looking on the kitchen, he humming a happy tune, walking around , he stop at the the wood oven, Grekorio lit it up, take out the wood from his inventory, and put it on the fire, he start to around the house, while using the torch to put fire on the house.
Getting out, he start to admire the giant bonfire, shaking his to get rid of distracting thoughts, he look at the houses around him.
The fire rapidly spread around the village, waking the trolls, Grekorio quickly get out the village.

A World Worth Protecting
By the year 3029 CE, Earth’s technology has developed rapidly, borders no longer exist, and Earth has been unified, marking the beginning of the era of the Federation. At that time, a huge sword flew from the heavens, piercing the sun and causing a huge sensation on Earth. Perhaps because the scabbard of the sword was already in tatters, countless shards have broken off from it following the collision with the sun and spread across the universe. Many of these shards have landed on various places across Earth. With the arrival of the bronze sword and its shards, a new unlimited energy source has suddenly appeared on Earth. This energy source has since been named Spirit Qi. Spirit Qi is like air, thick in some places and thin in others. As the Federation and other factions gather more shards, they discover more information on cultivation, pill refinement, Spirit Stone refinement, and other techniques. The words on the shards have an ancient feel to them, making it a trend for people to use ancient language. The appearance of Spirit Qi rapidly makes the original energy sources obsolete and has completely changed people’s lives. Not only has the Spirit Internet been formed, Spirit Qi has also changed the course of Human Civilization, causing the world to enter a civilization of cultivation. This would later come to be known as the Spirit Inception Era.

Kingmaker
This story is on hiatus/abandonned. People die, then that's all... or at least, it should be that way. There may be anomalies, yes – the occasional hero of old getting reincarnated for some obscure purpose – but who knows what the gods are thinking. If they are thinking at all. If there are gods, to begin with. What would explain such a mistake, then? The hero mark wasn't given to our reborn champion, but to his perfectly normal sister. A prank from these mindless gods, perhaps. Luckily for him, he was done with this hero business and had other plans for his new life, so it's all good... Here is the story of one who isn't meant to stand among heroes, kings and emperors anymore, yet will find himself holding power over them.

A Prose of Years
For decades, spiritualist Evert Kallstrom and his team have joined in humanity’s millennia-long fight against the beasts. Wielding their weapons and their ki, they fought and killed these great threats to civilization. And yet, despite their efforts, humanity was losing traction in the war. In the last fifty years alone, more cities had been overrun than in all of known history. While most thought the great beasts natural, a few knew the terrible truth. They were the product of a dark lord, who desired neither fame nor wealth nor power. Instead, his sole purpose was the genocide of humanity. While their peers dithered, a small faction of the strongest mankind had to offer—including Evert Kallstrom and his team—set out towards the Deadlands to find and confront this dark lord. After weeks of travel, twenty-one spiritualists found themselves approaching an ancient fortress wherein rested a being known only as the Eastern Guardian. All they found was death. But death has other plans for Evert. Evert bolts awake in his 16 year old body near his hometown, decades in the past. He is confused, poor and weak. But with grit, sweat, and years of experience, he won't let the future repeat itself. That level of strength won't be enough by itself (it wasn’t last time) and victory is hardly assured (he’ll need to reach farther and higher than he ever did), but Evert refuses to squander a second chance. [Other tags: First Person POV, Hard Magic, Faulty Memory] Volume 1 is complete and has been fully released. My current intention is not to write any sequel volumes. That said, I have also released appendices (SPOILERS) that cover the worldbuilding and future story-that-never-was. Comments suggesting fixes for grammar, misspellings, etc. appreciated. Note: If you came here from Candlelit Lives, these stories have nothing in common.
