《Shining Duos》Launder Mercenaries

"But first we just have to know giving how we can't precisely sense your aura, and despite those hoodies, we can guess you're all extremely young from what little of your faces we can see, are you all new geniuses of the Great Cloud sect in our Kelp City?" When saying that sect name, the plump woman had a certain amount of reverence in her eyes.
Now thanks to the plump woman, the trio gained more info on the place they were in.
Casually shaking his head, Kazami answered;
"No, we're just some rogue travelers who manage to got lucky and found some special items."
Kazami words made the uniform trio stand up and become laxer while the plump woman then decided to inform them;
"Ah lucky rogue cultivators I see and young ones at that too. For you, our offer is much more appealing then. We hail from Launder Mercenaries, and we're a powerful team full of rouge cultivators. And you all seem to have great talent and luck in finding something that hides one's realm, so our offer is; you give us the corpse, and we'll let you join our Mercenaries, and the three of us will even look after you kids."
In the Launder Mercenaries' thoughts, they concluded they discovered big with these three kids. They were at first only on a regular route to bring in more monster corpses or any other valuables items, but the muscle man notices the trio when they were close to the city at first and their odd cloaks.
They could tell it was a magical item as they couldn't sense the trio cultivation realm, and there was plenty of books that discuss individual pieces that could hide one level.
From this oddity, they thought maybe they were from the most influential sect here the Great Cloud sect and try their luck with swindling three naive kids.

But now hearing there only lucky rogue cultivators gave them even more courage in gaining something valuable. Not being able to witness the beast's death, they assume these youths have an extraordinary talisman.
However, all they got was;
"Sorry we refused, we quite like our group already." Lun Yuo replied to their question with a smirk, not hesitating to reject them at all.
The three mercenaries stalled for a second before muscle man spoke up;"Hmph worried that you might get deceive. Don't worry; we're not common fodder in the Launder Mercenaries; we truly have some say and power." As he said this, the three chose to flex their auras a bit and unleashed their Origin aura intentionally planting pressure on the trio.
The kind-looking man and muscle man were at the 6th level of Origin Formation, and the plump woman was the most potent being at the 7th level!
Noticing their tricks, they were trying to pull Kuzumi only carelessly taunted them saying;
"Oh wow, hey brother, isn't this the generic enemy type of people that get killed of immediately. It is like those books Auntie Lia sometimes read."
"Honestly, these guys fit the description to a T. It's kind of stunning thinking about it." Kazami also commented on as if just found a fantastic secret.
"I don't know what you weird kids are talking about, but look today a good day, so we won't force you to join, but you have only one option now, give us the corpse and we'll handsomely reward you."
Getting a bit annoyed with the unconcerned attitude the three were taking and how they seemed unmoved by their auras, the kind-looking man spoke up this time.
"Hey, when the part you're gonna threaten to kill us, or you'll take our stuff?" Kazami proceeded to agitate them even more with his words.The mercenaries looked angry for a moment but soon turned into a smile with the plump woman saying;

"Alright, we'll stop with the games, so hurry it up!"
Finally, deciding they played around enough, the trio unleashed their Spirit Formation 7th level aura to the three mercenaries.
Sensing the youths auras, the mercenaries dawned on an insulting smile and started to chuckle.
"Heh, what this, are you trying to scare us with your pathetic Spirit Formation aura? At least this does confirm you must have some very high-grade items to kill that monster." The plump woman scorned them even more and started to stroll to the trio, followed by the other two, only shaking their heads at the trio supposed foolishness.
"Well now seems like they don't believe we legitimately killed that monster. Shall we dance, Kuzumi, Yu?" Still standing in their spot without any alarm, Kazami asked, and all the other two did was nodded their heads with nasty smiles.
"Kid, I don't know what you're planning, but items won't help with g-" Was all the plump woman said before a flash of red lighting appeared right in front of her.
"Don't blink now," Kazami said and struck out with his hand only in his red lightning aura.
'BANG!'
Three significant impacts sounded out as the trio sucker punch the mercenaries sending them flying.
"Fucking little shits! What?!" None of them could even catch their breath as the trio shadow cover them. Above, they watched the trio move in sync to land a vicious kick on them.
Though before it landed on the mercenaries, their bodies light up in a crystal blue aura that donned them instantly, and they formed an Origin Qi barrier. The crystal blue aura is pure genuine Origin Qi that the trio could visibly see this time.
While they were training, Cathal would only send it out an invisible blast of Origin Qi. The monsters they fought were alone in the first level of Origin Formation most of the time, and those monsters would use latent abilities instead of Origin Qi.
Even the bear they fought sent out invisible Origin Qi to shred the trio.
The mercenaries color is light blue also shows just how powerful their Origin Qi is as well.
Kazami, Kuzumi, and Lun Yuo cared little for it as their attacks landed upon them.
'BANG!'
Their kicks caused multiple cracks to form upon their barrier as the mercenaries' bodies violently tremble. It felt as if they were crashing against hard steel from the power of their kicks.
"Origin Qi eh? Let's see who's Qi is stronger than!" Kazami shouted, and on the trio hands, powerful Spirit Qi gather there as they struck the barrier once more.
'Ka-Cha!'
Like fragile grass, their defenses got torn through, and the trio fist heavily crashed against the mercenaries' chest, sending them bouncing while also spurting blood.
"How sad, I thought you would be more entertaining this..." Kuzumi sighed, shaking her head and sending looks of pity to the mercenaries.
Hearing her words and watching her face, the three got fueled with rage; it's inconceivable for them to think they couldn't beat little Spirit Formation juniors!
In a frantic rage, they gathered their full power and rushed the trio like a speeding bullet.
At the same time, the trio also unleashed their divine powers intending to crush these three utterly.
With even higher speed than before, the trio rushed the mercenaries, shocking them once again at their new insane burst of speed.

Living in Paradise
The first thing I saw when I woke up was a group of people standing over me shouting "Happy Birthday!!!". Immediately after they start debating what type of world I came from and calling me 'William'. Later on I would learn that everyone here is reborn from another world and many children come with magic or superpowers or other gifts leftover from their old lives. I came from a world that was, to me, typical modernity. To them it was pretty boaring with the only thing interesting about my world being was a higher than average tech level for a non-spacefaring civilization; technology that wouldn't even work in this new world. All I brought with me was a peculiar mindset and the strong suspicion that there must be something more to life. Once everyone started to clear out my mother took me up in her arms, explained how the world works, and then stabbed me in the neck with a knife. I got better. -------------------- This story was written from the central idea of a simple question: What if a videogame like world, with all the normal video-game staples and tropes, was actually a real world? How would that work? How would people understand the universe around them? What sort of weirdness would the world appear to have from the point of view of someone who recognizes the odd nature of the place? And finally, if left to its own devices, how would this type of world ultimately develop?

Era: Dawn of the New Gods
Concise Synopsis: This is a post-apocalyptic story about the origins of various powerful figures that appeared after the apocalypse event. During the apocalypse monsters appeared possessing powers and constitution beyond the limits of human understanding. They ravaged the world and brought down all governments. The first part of the story follows Jade, a terrorist that was ravaging the world before the monsters arrived. Dramatic Synopsis: The New Gods, the most feared and revered beings on the planet. They are forces capable of absolute destruction and creation. The Council of Branches Hayley, the Living Lie (if that is her real name) Chao Feng, the Prince of Stars Lara, the Mother of Heroes The Great City of Tver Gog, the Ever Losing War The Unkillable Freak Dave, the Flow Demon Avatari, (only the name is known) Satoshi, the Gentle Hurricane As Impactful as they are no one knew their origin, they are called the New Gods so there must be Old Gods. I and my collegues dedicated our lives to finding their origins only to find out that the beings we fear and adore were once like us, average, mortal and weak... at least most of them were. *It is a sort of reverse RPG as no one knows anything either skills, abilities or how the system works but they find out on their own or develop their own skills or abilites. *The story has many protagonists and point of views but it paints a beatiful story of survival in a world of endless perils for both the humans and the monsters(some monsters are protagonists). *There is a system but it is very limited (not overpowered) and treats everyone equally, monster or human. The system is very different from regular systems; no exp, levels and system items. *The story is a world building story where overall, the world is the true main character. The cover image photo is credited to Angel David *For now it's one chapter a day

Life in Zora's Domain
An AU about Mipha's and Link's life together post Calamity. I tried to have some fun with this story, taking it in different directions, developing Mipha's and Link's family, making up some adventures, and creating some connections to other Zelda stories. But the main theme is Mipha's and Link's love for each other and building a happy life together. I'm sure I don't always succeed, but I try to keep the story light hearted and generally opt for happy outcomes.The first 2 chapters now incorporate the prequel stories 'His Future is in the Past' and 'Beginning Life in Zora's Domain', so this AU is self-contained in one story. If you've already read the prequels just jump to Chapter 1 - Studying. Cover art where available is by Nurple(twitter dot com/nurpleynurple) and used by permission. Spoiler Warning: This story has spoilers! On the other hand, if you haven't played the game this story won't make sense. This writing is a work of fan fiction using characters and events from the world of The Legend of Zelda TM: Breath of the Wild, which is owned and copyrighted by Nintendo. I do not claim any ownership of the world or its characters. It is a work of my imagination and is for entertainment only. It is not part of the official Nintendo storyline.
