《Rise of the Empress of Stars》Island
Advertisement
Breaking the calm on the island surrounded by sky blue fog a helicopter broke through and landed on the beach making the sand fly everywhere.
A petite figure jumped out of the helicopter followed by a couple and two middle-aged men. Zera stretched her body and took a deep breath of the aura which is so concentrated that it is visible to the naked eye feeling extremely comfortable as the pure aura filled every inch of her body with warmth.
"Grandpa, if you feel discomfort, tell me immediately as your body can't adjust to such a high concentration of aura in a short period of time. It would be better to meditate and adjust for a period of time before we further explore the island." Said Zerawhen she noticed the unbearable look on her grandparent's faces which they both tried to hide from her in order not to lose their majesty in front of her.
Taking a look at each other and shaking their heads with a bitter smile on their face Xander said," We can't hide anything from you can we? *Sigh* You heard her old man let's go find a good spot and adjust for a while."
"*Sigh* go lets go, It's a good thing we didn't get a pilot and made Zale drive otherwise that guy will faint as soon as we reach the skies above the island."Said Ardon shaking his head and walking along with Xander taking a look at the surroundings.
"This place is really picturesque, dear. The blue fog along with silver flowers with a faint blue glow along the vines in the plant. The sparkling crystal blue lake at the center of the island, is that the aura spring you were talking about? I wonder how it feels to take a dip in it." Said Sylvia admiring the natural beauty of the island while taking in the smell of the silver color flowers just pucked off with drops of dew on them.
"Uhm, I wouldn't do it if I were you mom. That is not water containing aura but pure aura has concentrated so much that it turned into liquid overtime. We can only take a few drops in Human Stage otherwise our will collapse and we will die due to excess aura. We can only enter after we can freely control our mental power and stop the excess aura from infiltrating our body but that too we can't do for too long, only a couple of minutes even at Sky Stage. So it's better to dilute it and mix it with medicated baths and food for now." Explained Zera walking to a place deeper than her parents and completely disappearing from their sight, where aura is more concentrated.

Sweat dripped down her chin as Sylvia tried to follow Zera into the fog when Zale hugged her from behind stopping her and said," Trust in our daughter, dear. Nothing will happen to her. We can't go deeper anymore, for now we need to adjust our body quickly so that we can join our daughter. Didn't she explain before, she is going to advance to Level-2 Human Stage after reaching the island and we can meet her beside the lake after we adjust for a couple of hours."
Calming down her restless heart after listening to her husband's words Sylvia also sat down along with Zale and started to circulate the excess aura infiltrating through her body.
'Uhm, according to the distance from the beach to the lake the island should be about 5000sqm and it is rapidly surfacing around 200-450 sqm per day and when the island underneath rises up it will be around 2million square kilometers, which is larger in area than many countries. It will have it's own mountain ranges and jungles according to the prediction provided by Eni. I think we shall smuggle in all kinds of animals and make them evolve by feeding the diluted aura spring liquid later on. But first let's breakthrough level-2. I have been level-1 long enough not to disrupt natural development till now.'
Sitting down in a comfortable position Zera adjusted her breath and slowly lost herself of the surroundings, observing the aura penetrating her body and circulating throughout squeezing the cells and making them evolve by constantly breaking down and getting healing by the aura.
Time passes by quickly and dusk arrives with golden light reflecting over the calm waves of the ocean when the two old men along with their children walk towards the center of the island after adjusting their body several times stopping every hundred meters.
Looking at the crystal blue lake with mist floating around surrounded by silver colored flowers with blue pusles in their vines and golden light peeking through the fog making the scene picturesque.

Taking in the beauty of the scene in front of them and calming down after a long time they found Zera taking a nap in the sea of flowers with saliva dripping down her chin looking cute and making people want to pinch her cheeks.
Looking at her sleeping daughter lovingly, Silvia woke her up gently by placing her head on her lap while calling her softly.
"Uhm,....what?"
Waking up in a daze looking so lovable that had brought smiles on everyone's face, Zera slowly came back to her senses. Looking at the smiles on their faces and felling the wetness on her chin Zera knew she must have looked quite stupid just now.
"Okay okay, we don't laugh anymore. So this is the Aura Spring eh?
Said Xander, hiding his smiles behind his palm and looking around to avoid Zera's sight.
"Yeah, the area where pure aura condenses into liquid is known as Aura Springs. This will help us decrease the required time for evolution tremendously and gain massive advantage over everyone else when used on a large scale."
"DON'T TOUCH IT GRANDPA!!!" shouted Zera as she made a dash towards Ardon and pulled him back just as he was about to reach into the lake.
Looking at his granddaughter's angry little face and eyes full of concern, Ardon lowered his head in guilty conscience, realizing he really angered her this time.
"Mom, tell grandma not give permission for any games to grandpa for the next 3 months." Said Zera in a calm voice unable to perceive any anger from it making Ardon even more sure of his upcoming hard days while Xander gave him a pitying look from the side.
Both the grandfathers have already deeply realized the consequences of angering their little ancestor when they started training with her but slept a couple of weeks in a row when she first taught them how to sense aura by being lazy.
Sighing at his misfortune, Ardon sat there sadly listening to his granddaughter frightening him with the consequences of touching the liquid just now.
"And grandpa now that we have decided on this island I have another thing that I forgot to mention before. That is once the island under the ocean surfaces it's the size of a country with its own mountains and forests forming an ecosystem after a few years of development under abaudent aura.
Eni has already deleted the recording of this land from the satellites of all the countries and marked the area as a danger zone due to constant storms. Now no one will know this place unless they were ashore." Said Zera, while lazily sitting in Sylvia's lap as she played with her silver blond hair.
"Are you kidding me? That's nearly the size of Mexico." Said Xander in a sharp tone as his voice pitched by several levels, unable to believe the information just revealed by his granddaughter.
"You mean we will occupy a country? Then are we like the royal family on this Island? You can literally be a princess in a few years once we establish a base and populate the place. Blablabla...." Ardon went on without paying any attention as he immersed himself in the beautiful country he is building in his imagination.

A Broken World [Dropped Pending Rewrite]
This work has been dropped- because I am rewriting it. Look forward to the new and improved "A Broken World," now available HERE on Royal Road! Three thousand years ago, Demonic creatures invaded the world. Though their power seemed irresitable, a band of heroes managed to steal the knowledge of summoning rituals and worlds from them and created, "The Millenial Summoning." A powerful magic that would bring forth a being from another world with the power to change the world forever. The first being summoned became known as "The Speaker," and he brought the power of the Gods with him. Teaching prayers and invocations that blessed humanities legions and began to push back the demons, founding of the "The Church of the Spoken Word" rose to power and a stalemate was reached. Two thousand years ago, that stalemate was broken by the second casting of "The Millenial Summoning," and the arrival of "The First Sorceress," who taught humanity the basics of magic and enchanting. With the power of the Sorceress, the mages, and the priests the tide turned and the Demonic hordes began to be shoved back, signaling hopes of a golden age for mankind. One thousand years ago, the hopes of final victory and a new dawn for mankind were dashed by traitors who slew the participants of the ritual and took their places, using the ritual to bring forth a godlike being from the demons home world, "The Demon King," for no human knew his name, erased millenia of growth reducing humanity to barely a fragment of its former glory. Now the ritual is being cast again, and a new being is being summoned... In our world, after nearly two decades of studious work, Luke Jaeger is making his dream come true. Working and going to school full time, sacrificing his health and social life in his youth, Lucas obtained Doctorates in genetics and virology, as well as associate degrees in business and accounting. The modern world is not easy, and despite it nearly driving him mad from stress, this was the bare minimum he needed to be approved for a business loan to start a company focusing on commercial genetic therapy. Despite the challange of getting his business running, Lucas feels that his work has finally paid off. Lucas's car never left the banks lot, nor was Lucas ever seen again in our world.

The Skies of Aurora A world full of thousands of islands spread throughout an endless sky with no ground to be seen beneath them. Here we find Shawn Blake, who lives a quiet life near a dungeon on the Isle of Fallen Snow. Very few people ever visit the Isle of Fallen Snow because there is only one dungeon that has a connection to the island in all of the endless Skies of Aurora. Thanks to that, Shawn has been able to live peacefully on the island with nothing but his training to worry about, despite being a hybrid of more than one of the five ruling races. However, unfortunately for Shawn, his peaceful life is about to come to an end as some visitors make their way to the Isle of Fallen Snow for reasons unknown. The world of Aurora is a world of endless skies full of floating islands separated by open air with the void far below them, and the only way to get from one island to another is through portals that are located at the end of each dungeon. These portals are connected to the central portal on another island. This book is a litrpg, fantasy, and sky world all in one. I hope you enjoy my book, and I welcome any and all suggestions.
