Hi guys, first (redone) chapter. Chapter two is coming tommorow!!
Chapter 1 three hundred men
Chapter 1
"Men kill these god damn bastards! They are o-…"
A man, holding an AK in his hands fired a few shots and got up from behind his hiding place trying to encourage his comrades before suddenly being silenced.
Two bullets had simultaneously pierced his head and in the end he only kept standing for a moment before finally falling to the ground.
Next to him a few other men also equipped with various weapons cursed before they dragged his death body from the street.
"Fuck they've got Zeg to!"
"He was our fucking best marksman and even he was unable to even hit one of these damn demons!"
Having dragged the dead body behind them they quickly took his place and also started to send a hail of bullets towards the other side of the street. They aimed for a group with 12 men that were currently closing in onto their defense.
Most of these men were also equipped with either AK's or other firearms, but in front of the other ten men, two men were advancing wielding only cold weaponry in forms of knives and blades.
While the 10 men with firearms had to constantly search for walls and cars to use as protection from bullets, the two men in the front simply advanced in a straight line not seeming to notice the rain of bullets around them.
In fact as they saw these two men simply running through the hail of bullets they let loose, even the men shooting had their troubles to believe that there were really bullets constantly raining towards these two men. It seemed like the bullets simply disappeared before they reached these two men.
Finally the two men reached the defense constructed of simple bags of sand pulled together and forming a 2 meter high wall and while one suddenly made a incredible jump, lifting himself as high as five meters above the ground, the other simply seemed to have disappeared for a brief moment before reappearing behind the wall.
Of course a shower of bullets was once against heading towards the man that made an beautiful arc in the air, but it was obvious that they wouldn't have any effect as they did the other times. Once again it seemed that the bullets disappeared without any sign and the man simply descended downwards.
As he was falling down the other man already reached the first three men that had been positioned at the defense.
One of them, a young man in his twenties still tried to get his weapon between himself and the demon that had attacked them, but the 'demon' simply reached out with his left hand and pulled at the barrel of the weapon making the bullets piercing through the air and uselessly fly through the sky.
At the same time a blade appeared in his hand and he sliced down onto the young man's throat.
Just before the blade reached the other weak flesh and thoroughly killed him, one of the other defenders pulled out a small caliber gun and aimed at the 'demon's' head.
The 'demon', in other words the attacker, reacted in time lifting his right arm to protect his head and allowing the bullet to pierce deeply into it. But even as the bullet pierced through the arm the knife continued it's course and finally reached the young man's throat and with one motion severed his head.
"You bastard, you're a level two expert!"
The 'demon' exclaimed.

Blood splashed and tainted the 'demon's' face red as he didn't stop here but changed direction and rammed into the man with the gun.
Using the shoulder with the injured arm he slammed into the other causing him to lose balance. At the same time his legs made a strange movement or rather a strange motion that caused him to instantly regain his balance and stand upright while the other was falling to the ground.
Finally a steel needle appeared in his sleeve and with a flick of his arm it hissed through the air and cleanly pierced through the others eye killing him instantly.
As the second defender was death, the third one finally managed to move pulling up his AK and aiming at him from a distance of maybe two meters. The attackers face became grim as he knew that he had no way to avoid the bullets at this range, but before the defender could pull the trigger and set the bullets free a shot reached their ears.
Blood ran down the defenders back as his disbelieving eyes stared at the attacker in front of him. Behind him a faint sound ran out as the second attacker finally landed on the ground, a short gun in his hand. Then a last thump sounded as the last defender fell towards the dirt on the ground.
"JAKE WHY DO YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO MAKE THESE STUPID JUMPS? Fuck, this guy with the gun was a hidden level two expert!"
The 'demon' immediately yells at Jake who walks to him with a grin.
"Dan, Dan what the heck are you yelling for? He's just level two, you do this kind of guy while watching porn don't you? Why are you even injured? Can it be that the mighty boss of Emperor's Rule is unable to kill a meager level two expert?"
Dan’s eyes gleamed frosty as a strange grin appeared at his face.
"Oh does this mean that you think I'm too weak?"
Jake paled as he saw his mistake. Of course he knew that a level two expert was nothing to Dan and normally didn't even stand a moment against Dan.
"No I wou-…"
"So you want to try me?"
Dan interrupted his grin becoming vicious.
"Fuck, drop this Dan you know it was only a freaking joke!"
Jake became completely panicked as he looked into Dan's vicious eyes.
Finally Dan just made a small laugh.
"As if. Let's drop this and look for the rest of our men, I also have to get the fucking bullet out of my poor arm."
Jake eased up as he saw that Dan dropped his threats.
"Key Boss. But really, why do you always have to be this serious with this shit? Really thought you would trash me right there."
A grin escaped Dan's control as he looked at his complaining friend. He got into motion leaving the street and entering the main street. Cursing Jake sped up catching up with him and together they walked back.
On their way there were tens of men running around cleaning up corpses and disposing them on trucks that were then driven out of the city. Others stripped the corpses from everything that could be worth money and began to make an inventor of the items.
There were multiple piles of weapons and equipment that had ones belonged to the fraction that occupied this district. Each was guarded by one or two men with automatics that were looking out or anyone that got too close to the weapons on the ground.

In the world as it was right now, weapons were power and power was the only way to ensure survival. It was only natural that almost everyone in the city craved for one of the weapons that were lying right before their eyes and there had been many accidents were young hot blooded man tried to get a hand on one of these weapons and was killed by the man around.
To prevent any of these attempts at their roots, Dan had posted guards at every pile and made it obvious that trying to steal one of them means throwing your life away.
After 10 minutes of walking they had finally reached the street where Dan had been earlier looking down onto the other faction’s dead boss. The street here had already been cleaned up completely and was completely closed up by his men. No one that didn't belong to them was allowed to go into the street now.
Several men were standing, looking at phones in their hands and giving out orders to other men. A busy stream of men were constantly entering with reports and leaving with new orders.
As Dan and Jake entered the street one of the men that were giving out orders immediately came towards him.
"Sir, the whole district has already been taken control of. There is no one around now that could be a threat for us."
Dan glanced towards the man.
"What’s the causality count?"
"Five dead on our side, three permanently disabled and twenty men injured. The injured will take about a month to heal, after this they should be up again."
"The other side?"
The man hesitated.
"300 men dead, including the whole leading circle. The whole Scorpion faction was totally decimated and there is no more threat from it."
"Any problem with the inhabitants?"
"No Sir, they were exceedingly calm and made no trouble for us. We met no resistance at all. The only thing that might require your directions would be the other faction’s girls. We have found a few dozen girls in the enemies headquarters, are we supposed to deal with them like the other times?"
Dan didn't even have to think about it. Indifferent he ordered.
"Just like always, those who don’t resist are given to the men with the highest contribution. They can play with them as they like. As for those who resist, kill them."
The other man didn't even blink as he took his orders. He was long since used to the way the enemies’ women were treated.
"Yes sir."
With all matters being cleared the man didn't hang around and went back to his position while once again giving out orders to the other men.
Dan turned to Jake.
"So this was the southern district hmm? 300 men, a whole faction wiped out because of some dozen houses."
This world was cruel, cruel to the extreme. Lives were nothing here and both Dan and Jake knew this. Only the strong could survive here and strive for something greater.
At January the fourth of the year 2015, 'IT' had begun. 'THEY' had suddenly appeared on the planet human kind had always claimed his own. The 'Others' as they are called were multiple intelligent races and human civilizations that had suddenly appeared out of nowhere. Each of them had multiple tens of millions of individuals within them.
Human kind who had always been the only intelligent being on earth and never faced any other kind that could rival them in intellect and the possibilities that emerged out of it, had now suddenly gotten a couple of new 'neighbors'.
Of course there had been hopes to get over this whole thing without shedding blood. Languages were researched, barriers of communication were destroyed and compromises were made, but while some of these newcomer races agreed to peace and decided to integrate into the existing society of humans, others didn't agree and demanded their own territories, leading to war and the fall of multiple small nations.
The other big nations naturally felt threatened by these blood thirsty aggressors that were not afraid of committing genocide had banded together creating an alliance to suppress the races that chose war and recover the lost territories.
Unlike you might believe, they actually managed to push them back, because even though the other races possessed their own racial properties that made them stronger than regular humans like form changing and things like magic, Humanity had an overwhelming higher cultural and technological development.
Even the highest grade magic employed by the Elven race with the most powerful magic could not fight back against the coupled might of multiple nations nuclear missiles. In the end the enemy races were pushed back and a big part of the territory was recovered.
Also humanity had another card that ensured their advantage. Cultivation.
Something that had been lost for thousands of years had resurfaced at the time it was in greatest needs. The art of training the body through martial arts. And this was not normal training. Cultivation with martial arts didn't make you a bit stronger and look like some bodybuilder.
No, not only was it able to let you live a bit longer, it also could make you many time stronger than normal and lift a human to the physical level of the other close combat specialized races.
But even though humanity had all this advantages and even recovered a big part of the lost land, there were still big losses even amongst their armies and these losses lead to a broken balance between the nations that had allied with each other.
Soon some nations like Russia and England that had been at the very front of the fights and had the biggest losses, became weaker than their counterparts USA, the European Union and the Arabian countries. The nations that had considerable low losses and still possessed bountiful resources started to absorb the countries the countries with used up recourses and the alliance broke up with war unfolding within the humans themselves.
Because of this multiple weaker nations lost their strong backers and also fell to the 'Others', while the stronger nations were now fighting with both themselves and the 'Others'.
In the end the whole thing stabilized into a frail stalemate between humans and the other races. Humanity was fighting within themselves, but so did the other races and humanities advantage in weaponry and other necessary resources for waging war made it possible for them to stand their ground even though they were not united.
In the end all this events led to certain areas in that law had completely been lost and that couldn't really be considered to be under the nation’s control. Areas like the city from before.
Here men could strive to achieve their own ambitions.
Standing in midst of the street Dan and Jake chatted for some time before moving again. Suddenly….
"Careful!"
Shock was deep inside of Jake's eyes as he yelled. Behind Dan one of the originally 'dead' enemies suddenly moved and took the AK (Kalashnikov) into both hands and aimed at Dan.
"Die you faggot!"
He pulled the trigger. Dozens of bullets were fired into Dan's direction.
But they did not hit Dan. Two man that have been standing some distance behind him had multiple bullets pierce into them and fell dead to the ground, but Dan who had been standing in front of them a moment ago had disappeared.
Splash.
Blood tainted the ground and the man with the AK fell down his head rolling over the ground. Behind him stood Dan wryly smiling as he took out a cloth and cleaned the bloody knife in his hand. Calling over to the man that had reported to him earlier and was now shocked staring at the bloody scene that had appeared out of nothing.
"You over there. Fix the causality count, it's five now.
As for the rest check out if this bastards are really dead. I will be very disappointed if this happens again today."

8 626Re: Dungeon Conqueror
Edard is born with a heightened sense abnormal by all human standard. He can hear the voices of animals and can forecast the possibility of a rain by just looking at the sky. Spending several days eating nothing and holding his breath for an hour are just the least of his abilities. He has always been curious about the existence of other planets with living creatures like himself. One day, he gets his wish; someone transported him to another world. He could have been happier though if he doesn’t receive an ultimatum of one-hour. The immortal dais welcomes you to Màsar. Congratulations, you have become a Conqueror. You will not age but you will die if your longevity runs out. As an Initiate, you have zero longevity. On its infinite mercy, the dais has given you a one-hour lifespan to gain longevity else you will die. Longevity: 00:59:59 *** What to expect: OP MC, fast-paced, lots of skills selections, plot driven, and despite the title there won't be constant dungeon conquering.
8 205Grim Beginnings
For most, ghosts and monsters were fantasy. For Tessa Byrne-Reyes, they were a constant in her daily life as a reaper. The legendary gods and creatures of mythology were, to her, historical figures. From a young age, she carried the weight of the world on her shoulders, possessing what she saw as a curse but what her family considered a gift. It was her birthright, to use her abilities to guide the deceased to the afterlife of an eternity in peace or in torment. Her classmates viewed her as "the fainting girl" who would pass out in the middle of a lesson with inexplicable injuries. She experienced each death in the town of Belmont Falls, from the mundane to the gruesome. A gunshot wound in the gut, broken ribs, her heart ceasing to beat for several minutes. No one understood what caused these incidents but over the years, she gained a reputation for being abnormal. While Tessa is the freak of Belmont Falls, Fin Belmont, the charming rebel and son of the richest man in town, is her polar opposite. Knowing each other for years but never saying more than a dozen words between them, one night changes everything, thrusting them into each other's unfamiliar and daunting worlds. Together, with the help of her best friend/his ex-girlfriend Elena, they begin to unravel secrets about their town and their pasts, learning that some secrets are better left buried and grudges can be held for centuries.
