《Sunset of the Dragons》Chapter 23: The Plan
Advertisement
Akai and Miura were eating soup with Nera at her cabin. Akai needed a plan to defeat Kytlmyne. His wings were still burned. He knew that he wouldn't be able to fly. Miura knew where Kytlmyne and continued to watch him with her crows.
Miura and Nera blew on their own soup, while Akai ate it without trying to cool it down. The room was quiet.
"Akai, so you have been wandering the world as an adventurer, right? You must have seen some crazy things," Nera said to start a conversation.
Akai finished his soup and said, "Well, I have seen a lot of things. I saw plenty of monsters that I had to hunt. One of the jobs was to hunt down a giant snake."
Nera smiled and asked, "Can you tell me about it? I want to hear more about outside the village."
Miura continued to eat her soup quietly and paid no attention to either of them.
He smiled and said, "Well, it wasn't too difficult. I was expecting some kind of fight, but all I did was buy some poison and baited it. I sprinkled some poison on a carcass and as soon as the snake saw a meal, it ate it. It died a few moments later, and I got a reward."
"Wow. You didn't even have to fight it. How large was it?"
"It was the size of three houses. I would have fought it, but when a shop owner noticed that I took the job, he said that there was an easier way to fight it and sold me the poison. I thought that maybe it wouldn't work or not be enough, but it was -"
He stopped mid-sentence.
"Are you okay, Akai?" Nera asked. Miura also stopped eating her soup and wondered what Akai was thinking.

"Oh. It was nothing. I just got lost in my head is all," He said as he laughed it off.
---------------------------------------
During that night, Akai wanted to talk to Miura.
"I have an idea on how to take down Kytlmyne, but I will need some help," he said.
Miura smiled deviously. "Oh. You think you got some idea on how to kill him?"
"Yes, but I need to know something, first."
He paused. "How fast would it take for a crow to get to King's City." He held out a small parchment towards the witch.

No More Respawns
Synopsis: The first time Allen died, he was forced back into a living hell where death is temporary, and power is all that matters. With evil and depravity as the rule, tragedy becomes comedy and life becomes an act. Only a deal with a shady god can get him back to his old life, but what happens if there’s nothing left to save? Maybe hell isn’t so bad if you have infinite lives… until you don’t. Needless to say, it’s all fun and games until there’s no more respawns. Foreword: This story is meant primarily as an action adventure and secondarily as a dark and nihilistic comedy. It may not be readily apparent in the beginning, but that's what I have planned (I feel the need to emphasize the dark; don’t rage at me if it gets too ‘traumatizing’ or something). I’m going to take my time with this, so it won’t immediately inundate you with doom and gloom. This is also a comedy, remember? On that note, if for some cursed reason you just can't handle either the references or the jokes, I am willing to battle in the comments. Anyway, I still put a significant amount of effort into the system, so I hope you enjoy that part. It is a little bulky, I'll admit to that, but I wanted to try something new and its more fun when there's more depth to it. Regardless, I still have a lot of fun doing math in the middle of writing a fictional story (/s). I also want to see if I can keep from messing up the pacing. Many times, I end up going too fast because I'm afraid of the story getting boring, which tends to ironically have the opposite effect. I'm still learning I suppose; we'll see how things go. Lastly, please leave reviews and comments, they really mean a lot to me and (usually) help me improve considerably. I'll be asking for feedback in the polls and I do still check the old ones from time to time. Notes: The story takes a bit of time to develop; give it time if you're here for drama, grimdark, or antihero. The system is all blue boxes and I'm not half-assing the numbers. Chapters will be between 1k and 2k words usually. I always use the oxford coma, fight me. Might drop if rating falls below 4 stars, idk. It depends on how my life is going. Cover drawn by yours truly in MS paint. (I have skill, I know)
