《Once upon a Night Time's Dream》The Tremors of an Uninvited guest.
Advertisement
The throne room proved extravagant for a country that was newly made. Outside the cries of crickets sounded, winds blew bringing along fallen leaves in companionship. Stronger, greener leaves stayed however, they stuck unto their mother-tree like glue; only to sway according to the direction of the blowing and chilly winds. the chirps, and perhaps the coos of birds pierced the sky. Multi-colored feathers fell, drifting slowly. Only to land on the side of a cobble path. Whereupon the clicks and clops of a horse's hooves touch. The great and gentle beasts nicked with excitement as they passed a large wooden gate. They've arrived, to home they looked forward to.
There, in a certain said throne room sat a King. He was a handsome man, aged in his early 40s, he held himself with dignity but not one with arrogance. The King was not a ruthless man unlike many others. No, he was a gentle one instead, but not to the point it brought downfalls to his small, but peaceful country. Deep onyx eyes scan its surroundings, strands of hazel coloured hair fell out of place in occasions. Across him was a sturdy, iron door. It measured the height of 3 adult men and the floor graced with luxurious red carpet. The entirety of the floor was of course not covered but only a medium sized patch was, leading to the throne whereas the king sat. Up to the rather wide 'stage' led by small steps. The side of His Majesty's, well, 'chair'? 'throne'? resided another, specifically 2 other but smaller version of 'thrones'. The King merely gazed around, it was his rare free time and he planned on thoroughly enjoying it.
Truly, the design was exquisite. Large, transparent and sturdy looking glass windows decorated the sides of this particular room. The curtains that decorate it a bright red color with golden embroidery and linings. The design included that of curves and tiny imitations of lined flowers. Milky white covered the entire floor, the marble gave occasional swirls and it gleamed in blunt manner. Tile after tile, the mere scene of it would tempt any child to play a game that would consist of avoiding a certain tile and jumping on to another.

At the sides of the room, excluding the windows of course, were chairs. Carefully placed the chairs were obviously expensive, luxury red cushions and gold coated hand rests decorated the chair that could seemingly feed a family for months lay arranged in a vertical manner, down the isle.
It was then, THAT had taken place.
The earth trembled in an overwhelming manner and windows shattered with a final piercing cry; the palaces guards were in chaos as they could hardly keep balance in the sudden situation. The stronger of the lot however, scrambled with slight difficulty to the throne room. 'The King takes first priority! We have to hurry' such were their loyal minds. The sound of armor rattled alongside was the clanging of their swords or any another weaponry they had on their sides. No sooner in 15 minutes had they arrived the room. What'd they had observed was an unharmed King and an uninvited guest.
The King, with a solemn expression had asked. His mask was a political one, as he presented himself undisturbed with the phenomenon that was received in a mere 10 minutes back. Wise eyes pondered on an obvious request that has yet to be given by a powerful being. What will he request? he thought. Dragging alongside was a crystal clear recollection of what had happened. A powerful and inhumane aura swiped passed the lot of confused people. The pressure was overbearing, powerful; it was even to the point that a slight ripple and twist in space could be seen from it. The unknown figure that was clad in black, the one that stood in front of the King only smiled. Profound eyes pierced through each and every living and breathing being in the room.
It was strange, hadn't anyone felt the tremor? Reinforcements fail to arrive. Mischief in his star like pupils shun, his irises coated with the deepest of colors. 'It was weird, what is happening?' A simple point view of the narration of this phenomenon. His irises weren't even black, but they were just, deep. Around said iris were a variety of hues of blues, silvers, gold and violets. They glimmered underneath the sun through shattered glass. The colors were unnatural but it somehow fit the young looking and black-clad figure; blending nicely with a shining brilliance. Given time, the King would've thought they even glowed somewhat. Words escape his perfect thin and peach lips, pearly white teeth showing, A deep and profound voice rang in everyone's ears,

Adventures of the Goldthirst Company
Get the quest, kill the monsters, grab the loot, don't die. How hard can adventuring be? When the party is a fashionista wizard who'd rather stare at her reflection than dirty herself with actual combat, a thief that picks locks by ripping them apart, a paladin trying to do the right thing, and an archer that's better at talking to plants than people, then even a simple quest can prove a challenge. Hired for a variety of tasks, from retreiving the legendary Dragon's Veil to bodyguarding the wealthy, thwarting apocalyptic prophecies, or uncovering not-so-abandoned elven ruins, the problems in their way may well prove their undoing; lonesome medusas, sticky-fingered psychopomps, agressively passive golems and fearsomely violent geography stand in their way, as well as the minor issue of simply not actually trusting, or even liking, each other! Releases twice weekly, generally Tuesday and Friday (Art by Sin Soppitt)

New Paris [a Modern-day LitRPG]
New Paris [OR] I reincarnated into the world of my favorite wuxia novel as an S ranker with unbalanced skills. [Volume 1] - Completed I was one of those people who only stood out in a crowd when their name was called. Then, I died. But instead of heaven, hell, or anything else, I found myself in the body of a young woman whom I did not recognise at first. You see, I had this novel I was obsessed with. The novel was a fairly popular wuxia that got a few sequels, and a handful of spinoffs. One of these spinoffs took place in Paris, where the main cast fought against a multi-millionaire villain. When I woke up after dying, I eventually realised that I was now the third daughter of this multi-millionaire end-game boss in a spin-off of a sequel of my favourite novel. Does this make any sense to you? Because it doesn't to me. But I guess I might as well make the most of it now. Just gotta stay away from some of the more unstable main characters and cut all ties with my 'family' to avoid certain death. [Volume 2] - Currently Airing It had not been a good idea to interfere with the characters of the original novel. Had I known it was going to cause a butterfly effect, I would have stayed in my lane and minded my business. Although, between the suspicious attacks I seem to constantly find myself in the center of, and my 'family' who is the living definition of the expression 'rich pricks', I’m not entirely sure my current predicament would have been avoidable. But maybe it isn't to be avoided; maybe I should embrace this opportunity that has been given to me and become the hero of this story? At least it's certain that I can't do worse than the original protagonist in terms of moral ambiguity; with immortality already in my pocket, and no other useful skills to account for. However, if I were to follow this path, I would have a lot to lose, including an upcoming promotion and my growing relationship with my crush. With power, glory and whatever else on one side, and my wellbeing and happiness on the other, even in this magical wuxia world, the choice is easy to make. CW: graphic descriptions of violence, swearing, implied child abuse, mention and graphic description of suicide

Hardcore OP-ness
Most people pray for good health, a loving family, and to win the lottery. I asked “Can you send me to a game-like fantasy-style world? It can't be too unrealistic, but also, it would be nice if I was immortal to some degree. Oh yea, no rape or slavery either, cause then I'll have to spend the whole time trying to create a perfect society, and I'd rather not have to deal with all that nonsense. No other players either, cause that always creates a ton of annoying drama, and I just want to have a fun, relaxing, and enjoyable time.â€Three years later, after I had completely forgotten about all that… well, better late than never I suppose. The moral of this story, is to be careful what you wish for; also, cuteness is justice, so don't complain if adorable bunnies beat you to death and devour your corpse.(Warning: This story includes profanity, numbers, humanity, nudity, uncomfortable realism in a fantasy-world, awkward but mild sexual-content, descriptive violence and gore, nekomimi, necrophilia, bizarre and disturbing sexual-content, offensive language, plus all of the other things that disclaimers usually have to tell you about. Do not read this if you dislike transportation, virtual reality, fantasy, or other similar genres… or me, because I'm the author.)I'm only posting a few chapters on this site, but there are over 100 on my wordpress. https://mike777ac.wordpress.com/hardcore-op-ness/
