What the F*ck!
Why would someone just promote someone to S rank that easily? i'm not complaining or anything, but at least explain it to me why? well, i guess sh*t happens.
But anyway... i'm S rank now! YES! but it would be weird that some fat guy just got promoted from G to S rank in just a week. i'll keep it a secret for now. and right after i came to that conclusion, i hear an announcement at the counter.
"Attention everyone, we have a new S rank in our guild." [Asila]
"Really!? who is it!?" [Adventurer]
"It's probably Mr. Shaun!" [Adventurer]
"Yeah! go Mr. Shaun!" [Adventurer]
"I'm sorry to disappoint everyone, but it's not Mr. Shaun." [Asila]
"Then who is it?" [Adventurer]
"His name is Henry Black." [Asila]
"Henry Black? who's that?" [Adventurer]
"Well, whoever he is, he's got to be pretty powerful to be recognized by the guild master." [Adventurer]
And that completely ruined my planned, damn. well, guess i better go back it is, sunset.
"Oh! Elizabeth-" [Henry]
Elizabeth is gone. really? right after we met again, you're gonna leave again? the comments and reviews are gonna the author for this.
I went back to the lobby of the Adventurer's guild, and no one said anything. just those weird stares. i at least hoped for someone to recognize me.
Anyways, i went back to Catherine's place. when i enter, no one was inside. huh. that's weird. where are they? i looked around, and found that Elgir and Rigil were out back, sparring.
"Put your back to it son!"
"I am!"
"Well, it's not enough!"
They're not using magic, just punches and kicks. i think they're testing out their human like bodies, that's good. i checked up on Catherine, and she's still in her bed. well, she's not unconscious anymore, she's just sleeping. well, time to go to bed. what? it's not like i have anymore things to do.

The next morning....
Good morning! it's a new day. and a new me, literally. since you guys wanted my fat to vanish, then let it be gone! of course i'm not going actually exercise, that'd be stupid for me to do when i have my best friend [Code] here.
setvalue (HenryBlack's fat){
fat = 80kg
} |
(Yes, i use the metric system.)
when i pressed enter, without warning, it felt like the weight on my shoulder became feathers. i feel light, really light.
anyways, i went downstairs, and saw the two of them on the floor again. there's literally a bed right f*cking there! use it for Chr*st sake.
"Oy, wake up." [Henry]
"Hmm...*Yawn*" [Elgir]
"I said wake up." [Henry]
"And who are you?" [Rigil]
"It's me." [Henry]
"Me who?" [Elgir]
"Stop being a smarta*s, it's Henry." [Henry]
"AH!" [Elgir]
They stood up straight, like they were in the army.
"Master, what happened?" [Rigil]
"I lost weight." [Henry]
"Yes, i can see that, but how did you get rid of it so fast?" [Rigil]
"Yeah, you were like a ball... no! like a boulder!" [Elgir]
"Yeah! like that!" [Rigil]
"....." [Henry]
"......." [Elgir]
"......." [Rigil]
"Anyways, go sit on that couch over there." [Henry]
"Yes sir." [Elgir & Rigil]
I went upstairs, and checked to see if Catherine was up.(You all know what's coming rignt?)
And surprise, surprise! the most cliche moment of all anime, seeing a girl changing.
She saw me, turned red, like any other girl, and she grabbed her sword.
I know this is the most cliche moment ever, but in my perspective, it's really great, but at the same time, utterly terrifying.
She chased me out of the room, changed, and then chased me again.

"You f*cking Pervert!" [Catherine]
"Hey! it was an accident! it's not like i intended to do it." [Henry]
"True, but you still saw me naked!" [Catherine]
After she tried to literally kill me, the sword broke, since you know, infinite defense baby.
"Who even are you!?" [Catherine]
"Hey! it's me, Henry!" [Henry]
"HA! don't try to fool me! Henry is fat!" [Catherine]
"I just lost weight." [Henry]
"Just lost weight? he was a f*cking ball! no! a boulder!" [Catherine]
"...." [Henry]
"......." [Catherine]
"Oh, it really is you." [Catherine]
"......." [Henry]
"I'm-i'm sorry for insulting you like that. i'll never do it again." [Catherine]
"......." [Henry]
"Just sit down." [Henry]
That was mean. like really mean. was i really that fat? did people see me as a big f*cking boulder? well, i'm annoyed. but not angry.
"Okay, everyone. i'm just here to say that i have been promoted to S Rank, that is all." [Henry]
"......." [Catherine]
"......." [Elgir]
"......."[Rigil]
"What?" [Henry]
"Are you f*cking kidding me!?" [Catherine]
"No, i'm not f*cking kidding you!" [Henry]
"It took me YEARS to get to S Rank!" [Catherine]
"And i was only been promoted last month!" [Catherine]
"Really?" [Henry]
"Yes, really!" [Catherine]
"Well, i'm S rank now. so deal with it." [Henry]
"I was." [Catherine]
"And.... are you done?" [Henry]
"Nope." [Catherine]
"Let it aaaaallllllll out then." [Henry]
"Elgir, Rigil, don't you think this is unfair?" [Catherine]
"Gobrisoft, Garilfkuol ras reliftum rek!" [Elgir & Rigil]
"What?" [Catherine]
"Gobrisoft Garilfkuol ras reliftum rek!!" [Elgir & Rigil]
"What!?" [Catherine]
"They're saying that master is amazing, and there is nothing surprising about that." [Henry]
"Oh." [Catherine]
"So are you done?" [Henry]
"...... yes." [Catherine]
"Then let's go then." [Henry]
"To where?" [Catherine]
"To the Dragon quest of course." [Henry]
"Wait, we're actually doing that!?" [Catherine]
"Of course." [Henry]
"Only 3 people has ever beaten that dragon before! and they weren't even able to kill it!" [Catherine]
"Wait, you said 'that', so there are specific dragons you have to kill?" [Henry]
"Yes! of course! it's not like they're slimes that spawn anywhere." [Catherine]
"But the quest said to kill 'a' dragon, not kill 'the' dragon. and the reward for it is only two gold." [Henry]
"two gold?" [Catherine]
"Yes, that's what it said." [Henry]
"No, i think it should have said 200 gold." [Catherine]
"Really?" [Henry]
"Maybe a smudge was on the quest paper." [Catherine]
"Well, 2 gold, or 200 gold, i don't really care." [Henry]
"you don't care for money?" [Catherine]
"Yes, the only thing i want is to have a pet dragon." [Henry]
"A pet dragon? are you insane?" [Catherine]
"Nope." [Henry]
"Then i pray for you to have a quick death." [Catherine]
"So, your not coming?" [Henry]
"Of course not!" [Catherine]
"Then, i say to you, farewell." [Henry]
I'm not really scared of dying, i already died before. plus it's not like i can die. you know, infinite health.
"Elgir, Rigil, let's go." [Henry]
"Yes!" [Elgir & Rigil]
And now i set of to find this dragon, and make it my pet.

Author's Rant
Just a disclaimer, this is not and never will be a story. I just, noticed I have a bad habit of wanting to rant in my author's notes, and have decided that, instead of accidentally doubling the length of each chapter with the author's note alone, I will shove those long-ass rants here. It might contain spoilers for my stories, as I usually wind up ranting about different parts I'm writing. So, if you actually enjoy my rants...well, firstly, what is wrong with you? Secondly, welcome! Time to figure out what tags to stick on this. Also, as of the second chapter, I have decided to shove some of my story ideas here. So if you enjoy half-baked, unfinished stories, then I got those too. I think that adds that short story tag?

Changes
Changes is a collection of three stories that take place after the events of Edict. It would benefit the reader to read both Hy'Ruh-ha and Edict. Story one: The Monk and The Princess After a several months break from duty, Soletus, is asked to serve by the Patriarch as an escort to a conference the Brotherhood is attending. The only catch is he's acting as a second warden because someone wants him promoted. All he has to do is be at his best. However, his best is put to the test as he led surly men and then get whisked off to solve a disturbing plot with a determined and bored princess. Notice: Please note, that Soletus, aka main character is asexual. That is part of being a neth elf. This story delves into information about it neth and gets into the neth elf experience a few times in this story. You've been warned. Also note: As much as I didn't want to put it in this story, avoiding it was a futile effort on my part. There were things I needed to explain about Soletus and it's hard to write personal tales about character when avoiding talking about certain personal aspects of them. Story Two: The Sun and Stars - Summary and Date TBA

Dauntless: Origins
Snow white hair, blue eyes, pale. Devil, monster, mutt, failure.This story follows one Tyr Faeron, crown prince, heir primus and mass murderer. A wrathful, angry, and lost young man that has made it his goal to hunt down the men that killed his mother - and he is on the cusp of finishing the promise he'd made before her cairn stones so many years ago. On the surface he is duplicitous, whimsical, and base of cunning - but within the depths beyond the many masks he wears, something is waiting. Waiting for an end, the end he'd come to long for, whether it be to himself or any possible threats in his vicinity. After that long labor of vengeance is completed... Nobody knows, not even him - an arrogant and otherwise solitary individual with nothing in the way of friends - only the brothers of the blackguard who follow him through life as he pursues this mission. He was born a prince, but he'd be called a disappointment - failing to manifest the great power that he was born to before being summarily discarded by his father, a 250 year old 'primus'. That word again... Men who can shatter mountains and level cities, that's what he was supposed to be. Some call them demi-gods, all Tyr sees is a poor excuse for a parent. Time had made him bitter, cruel, and arguably psychotic - seeing only enemies wherever he looks. They'd come for him, too, one day - to wipe the slate clean and make room for another - and it's his conviction to ensure that he dies while taking as many of those rats with him. This is a story about finding acceptance, growth, and understanding - from the point of view of a cold and brutal individual who wears many masks. Of someone who was born to be the greatest emperor the eastern continent has ever seen - but he failed in that. Strong, yes, but only in the context of a man - Tyr's magic is weak. His convictions are weak. He has been made a beast of instinct by loss and a constant confronting of his own impotency in the face of his father. A mythos that stretches across planes, of magic, a pantheon of cruel gods. Of someone who's dedicated his entire mind to the art of killing a man, and none to living a normal childhood or coming to understand friendship, empathy, or compassion. The first five years of his life a mystery, a hole none have ever been willing to fill, leaving him warped and twisted. His formative years gone and what must've been most of his humanity along with it. Now 17, he is on the cusp of leaving the city he'd never been permitted to leave for what might be the first time in his life. Always searching, though he won't know what for, for some time. An episodic that follows experience and symbolism rather than a never ending series of battles - where the conflict lay in constantly searching for wholeness in lieu of great villains or heroes. This is where it all started, the origin, the tale told a million times - and yet it hadn't been, 'reality' is tricky like that. The greatest lie ever told by the tongue that speaks is that any of this was real at all.
