《THE OTHER LIFE OF ACP》THE OTHER LIFE OF ACP - Chapter 22 : An Egg

The crying.
Is it coming from here? or here? wait a second..... this is a labyrinth! these were the most annoying sh*ts in RPGs. i hated them, no! i despised them! i spent like 30 minutes going through a labyrinth, only to get sh*t loot. even with the "Hug the left wall" trick, i still spend a lot of time doing it.
So, i skipped the labyrinth. How? easy. [Code].
giveHenryBlack Phase MAX |
'Henry Black has acquired the skill [Phase]'
'The skill [Phase] has leveled up from LVL: 1 to LVL: MAX'
When i activated phase, i phased through the ground. it was scary. i literally fell through the earth. i used [Fly] to get back to the surface.
I figured out how to use [Phase] properly. i only phase a part of my body, then pass through the wall with that body part, then un[Phase] that body part then [Phase] the other body parts. yes, it's complicated and tedious. but it becomes incredibly easy once you use it multiple times.
There i go, phasing through wall after wall, until i finally reached an open space. there was an egg, a big egg. just imagine dragon egg, yeah. but dragon egg! but a crying one? well whatever, i guess having a pet dragon might come true after all. so, i put the dragon egg inside [Storage], and i [Phase] back. phasing is convenient, why didn't i get this sooner? oh well.
I reached the cave entrance, and i saw two bodies rotting on the ground. hold on, i'll just resurrect them, give me a sec.
After resurrecting Elgir and Rigil......
"wha!?" [Elgir]
"Master!" [Rigil]
"You guys sure die quick." [Henry]
"I-i'm sorry." [Elgir]
"well never mind that, i already killed the dragon." [Henry]
"huh? i thought you were making the dragon a pet." [Elgir]
"I did, but i accidentally killed it." [Henry]
"......." [Rigil]
"Master, no one "accidentally" kills a dragon." [Rigil]
"Never mind about that, look! a dragon egg!" [Henry]
I took out the egg from [Storage].
"Wha-!" [Elgir]
"Master, how did you get this!?" [Rigil]

"It was inside that cave the dragon was in." [Henry]
"Master, a dragon egg is a [God] level item!" [Elgir]
"[God] level?" [Henry]
"You didn't know about this master?" [Elgir]
"Nope." [Henry]
"There are basically 5 levels of items." [Elgir]
"These are [Common], [Rare], [Very Rare], [Legendary], and [God]." [Elgir]
Oh, so it's like an actual RPG.
"And master, you have just obtained a [God] level egg." [Elgir]
"Yes, i know that. but what does a dragon eat?" [Henry]
"Humans." [Rigil]
"Oh... any substitutes?" [Henry]
"None. all of the dragons that exist on this world said that they only eat humans." [Rigil]
"That might be troublesome." [Henry]
"How about drink?" [Henry]
"They said that water is fine." [Rigil]
"Oh. that's good." [Henry]
"Do they grow like in Metamorphosis? or like how us humans grow?" [Henry]
"They said that how you humans grow." [Rigil]
"Okay." [Henry]
"Master, why are you asking these questions?" [Rigil]
"You might not believe me, but i love pets." [Henry]
Yes, i love pets. whenever my parents were working late, our dog, Dalri, who was a husky, always brings a smile to me. and to my parents. and to my younger sister. and to my older brother. i really hope he didn't get hurt or worse, killed. Oh? you guys didn't know i had relatives? yes i do have relatives. or i guess did. they weren't killed though, my sister, who was 8, was still at school, and my brother, who was 22, had to work overtime, yes my brother still lives in our parents home, don't judge. their names? it's Jessica and Anthony.
"Um... Master?" [Elgir]
"........" [Henry]
"Hey father, should we..... do something?" [Elgir]
"I-i don't know?" [Rigil]
"........... Huh?" [Henry]
"Master?" [Elgir]
"Yeah?" [Henry]
"No-nothing." [Elgir]
"Okay then." [Henry]
"Let's go back." [Henry]
"Yes!" [Elgir & Rigli]
"Okay, 3, 2, 1, go- wait!!" [Henry]
"What is it Master!?" [Elgir & Rigil]
"I forgot to take a piece of the dragon." [Henry]

"Oh." [Elgir & Rigil]
Unfortunately, the ear was too big to be carried and shown to the adventurer's guild. so i just took a dragon scale.
"Okay, done. let's go." [Henry]
For real this time, i flied back to the capital and landed near the gate. i showed them our ID's and entered. i went straight to the Adventurer's guild, and GOOD LORD THANK YOU! no more staring! no more very awkward stares! YES! Yes! yes!..... i'll stop. i went to the counter having a smile on my face, and i greeted Asila.
"Good Afternoon Asila." [Henry]
"Hello Sir, and welcome to the Adventurer's Guild." [Asila]
"Um...." [Henry]
"Would you like to apply sir?" [Asila]
"It's me Asila. Henry Black." [Henry]
"!!!" [Asila]
"......" [Henry]
"..........." [Asila]
"Could i please have a sample of your blood to confirm your identity?" [Asila]
"Okay." [Henry]
I knew this would be coming. no one recognizes the fat guy once they're slim. but they have magic that confirms the identity by blood? or is it technology? either way, it's pretty advanced.
5 minutes later.....
"I'm terribly sorry sir!" [Asila]
"It's okay. i just lost some weight." [Henry]
"Yes, i can see that you lost "some weight" sir." [Asila]
"Anyway, we are here for the Rank S quest: kill the dragon." [Henry]
"Okay sir, please wait a moment while we get your equipment." [Asila]
"Equipment?" [Henry]
"Yes, S rankers are granted equipment for S rank quests." [Asila]
"Oh, i didn't know that...... wait, hold on! you don't need to." [Henry]
"Hm? why not?" [Asila]
"Since we already accomplished the quest." [Henry]
"........" [Asila]
"What?" [Henry]
"Sir, please refrain from making bad jokes." [Asila]
"It's not a joke. here's a dragon scale." [Henry]
"!!!" [Asila]
"O-Okay, pl-please wait a moment...." [Asila]
"Okay." [Henry]
Yup, i'm definitely gonna get some attention. i mean a LOT of attention.
30 minutes later....
"S-sorry to keep you waiting!" [Asila]
Alisa once again brought John the guild master back to greet me.
"Who's this fellow?" [John]
"That sir, is Mr. Henry Black." [Asila]
"Stop, joking Asila." [John]
"I'm not sir." [Asila]
"Oh. he lost a LOT of weight." [John]
"I know sir." [Asila]
"I'm right here you know." [Henry]
"Mr. Henry, here is the 200 gold for the reward." [Asila]
"Henry, could you come with me?" [John]
"Sure old man." [Henry]
"Elgir, Rigil, stay here." [Henry]
"Yes!" [Elgir & Rigil]
We entered a room, that appeared to be the Guild Master's office. it was a fairly sized room. i had a desk, a couch, some chairs, and etc. he sat down on his office chair, and i sat down on the couch.
"So, is it rue you killed the dragon?" [John]
"Yes." [Henry]
"......." [John]
"You know, i was one of the people that defeated that dragon." [John]
"Really?" [Henry]
"Yes, really. it was along time ago, back when it was my first time being an S ranker." [John]
"I stupidly went for the hardest S rank mission there was. and i almost got killed many times." [John]
"But, i was a persistent fellow, i kept fighting and fighting, and one day, i finally defeated it." [John]
"And about the time that i was about to kill the dragon, i hesitated. i was frustrated at first, but i finally noticed that, this dragon made me stronger, stronger like a was never before. so i didn't kill it. i didn't care for money anyway." [John]
"And when i heard that someone killed it, i was..... sad. but when i heard that you killed it, i was genuinely surprised." [John]
"So, why did you bring me here? unless you just wanted to tell me the story of you and the dragon." [Henry]
"The king has invited you for his banquet." [John]
"Oh, okay..... wait, what?" [Henry]

MAYAKEN
Most people know the stories of the begining of the world but not most understand the struggles that happen in the dark. n the beginning, Kaen had been cursed- cursed as the first murderer among ‘sentient man’. He was cursed to feel the pain of the earth, the pain of life on earth, while still connected to the earth, enduring and unending like the mountains.

Kaen was marked out, banished in eternal exile from the world of men, till darkness and vice rules the heart of man and Lady Sihn is the consort of his soul-only then, with daring, shall the children of Kaen walk among men.

World of Alvarra: Rise of the Vampire Lord
Van was born a dhampir with memories of past lives that plague him. If he does not overcome them, he may face a slow descent into insanity. Growing up in a world where the memories of his past lives, clash with the truth of this strange new world. A world where women outnumber men to a large margin and are in control. Filled with magic, ki, aura, and creatures from other dimensions trying to break into his world to devour it. Will Van survive and thrive and make sense of it all? This is a story where I’m hoping to take some things and put them on its head. Everyone has heard of isekai about now, but has anyone ever really contemplated what it would be like to have voices, visions, or archaic ideas and views swim around a person's mind? We also hear about how the mc’s always gets the harem. But what if that's because there are more women than men and women are somewhat biologically different then the women we know from our world. Imagine a society where anyone can become strong and since there are more women than men, there are more stronger women than stronger men and now apply medieval history and a view that men are lower than women because the goddess made women in her image. And what if, the mc isn’t the only one with memories of past lives, and he meets some people who have been driven insane because of it? This is my first time writing a book and showing it to potential thousands of people. I won’t promise that my work will be good right off the bat. But I'm hoping that, with enough constructive criticism, I can provide an interesting read for all comers and improve to match and exceed the expectations put on me. The image used above does not belong to me. Warning! There is blood, gore, sex, and rape!(not anymore...) I may not be a good writer yet, but I will try to give a more realistic and authentic view of this world. This world and what you know of it will be of the view of the mc. So if something does not make sense to you, it probably does not to the mc ethier. Finally. For the sex or smut, scenes. I will hide them under spoiler. But you should not have to worry about it until somewhere around chapter nineteen or twenty, so if you don’t want to continue reading a book with sex, stop there. I will also be putting an NSFW sign in the chapter heading to warn people ahead of time. (all sex scenes will now be moved to my Patreon and scribblehub.) Thank you for reading and please help me become the writer I am hoping to be as well as the writer you all deserve to read from.

There are themes of abuse and suicidal ideation. Please consider this before reading.________________________________________"She smells good, doesn't she Bennett?" The deep timber of the man's voice rings out through the still night and my body shivers in fear and disgust. Suddenly another man is at my side, twining his fingers through my hair. I can't see either of them clearly in the dark. The man, Bennett apparently, leans down close to me and takes in a large lungful of my scent as well. My knees begin to shake in terror and a low growl rumbles from his chest."She does smell good. She's pretty too." He says, pecking a kiss to my cheek. My face crunches in despair as I try to pull from their hold. "Let me go." I beg and the first man chuckles. "Awe. The little human is nervous." He says, amusement evident in his voice. A sob breaks from my lips as I try to pull my arm from his grasp."You're hurting me." I say, tugging my arm again."Let her go, Rowan." Bennett says, making the larger man grunt."Don't get attached to her. You know what happened to the last one."Cover made by @ViaAlyssaNicole
