Chapter 5: Boss Fight?
"Well it's still a goblin right? How hard could it..-Ompf! said the Gary who got punched for jinxing.
"Well we might as well get this over with, every obstacle is a stepping stone for our empire! Now here's the plan."
They 6 gobl-Garys got in formation and walked toward the center of the room. The boss room was surprisingly large, about the size of an earth's basketball court.
It was completely round, not a corner to hide in, but the Garys knew this of course and took it into consideration. The brilliant plan to defeat the boss? Surround the boss!
The room was luminated enough by torches on the wall, they were firmly secure. This was known first hand when one Gary(not to be confused with Gary one) previously tried to remove them in the dungeons tunnel. When the Garys were about halfway to the center, the boss decided it was time to show himself.
A Goblin mage appeared from an explosion of fire at the center; the flames dispersed quickly, the mage not even seemingly burnt at all. It was much more flashy than the [clone]s poof! But don’t tell them that.
The mage was slightly taller than all of the previous globins seen, with a height hovering around 140 cm. He was dressed with a brown poncho covered in unknown stains, it was basically a giant loin cloth for his whole body. The nose was typical for a goblin, long.
The most striking thing about the mage was that he was holding a stick,it was different to Gary's stick this one was a staff!
Looking down on his enemies the smug grin of the goblin went unnoticed by the group, their eyes focusing on the staff.
" I can feel something faint from the staff, it's hard to describe with words.. but that's not any ordinary stick." said Original.

"Dibs" said Gary one.
“What did I say earlier!” (Original)
"Groannn..let’s just fight" Said gary 3.
So that's what they did, they spread out, leaving Original and one bodyGary. The rest flanked the goblin mage. Gary one was first to strike, and from behind! sneaky bastard. However the mage was quick to react, firing off a fireball towards his direction.
Gary one barely dodged , singeing his left arm hairs while blocking.
"It's a fire mage! Holy sh*t magic exists, I wanna learn that!" Said Gary 2.
"We all do, but don't lose focus and keep to the plan. '' Original said.
Gary one launched his attack again, this time ready to endure the heat. When the fireball launched he dived to the right, the goblin keeping an eye on him turned and exposed his back to the others. This was a foolish move for the goblin boss mage (aka Goblin Mage Boss) because this was when the other Garys took the chance to attack.
{Bam, Bam!}
The two managed to get a hit off, but before another set was allowed the goblin swung his staff around smacking into Gary 3. Gary 4 ducked in time and delivered a kick to the goblins shin, the goblin fell to his knees and Original bringing down his stick of punishment ended the boss.
[Goblin Mage Boss defeated, received 100 exp, even split, you may now leave]
A black portal opened up on the wall opposite of the entrance of the boss chamber.
" Good work guys, I think we all leveled on that one. " Original said while examining his loot, the staff not the enlarged poncho.
Gary lifted up the staff and channeled his mana through it, imaging the feeling when his mana drained using [clone]. Fwoosh! A large fireball, similar size to the mage before launched out of the head of the staff and flew across the room, straight into... Gary 3.

"Aaaagh!"
{Flop}.
Gary 3 fell to the floor dead.
"Sh*t is he dead? My arm is still hurting like hell. " Gary one asked.
"Damn , I don’t think so, I didn't get any exp-- woah.." Original slurred, clutching his head that was making him dizzy.

Blood Demon's Retirement
Civil War had raged on the Al-Shan Archipelago for the past four decades, only recently coming to an end with the enthronement of the new Emperor. This is not his story. The Blood Demon, renowned general of said civil war, was tired of all the fighting and politicking that had described the last four decades of her existence. All she really wanted to do now is to go out into the world and see the many lands from her father's stories. Thus she retired, and went and did exactly what she wanted. This is the story of what happens when you toss a (retired) war machine with somewhat lacking common sense into an unsuspecting world at peace. Chapters will range from 1-2.5k words, scheduled for release every day from Monday to Friday. First time posting a story on Royal Road here, hoping you folks will enjoy. Expect: -slow going slice of life with occassional faster paced action -world building -detailed anecdotes on the world, its races, the magic system, and whatnot every now and then Do not expect: -romance, other than maybe some passing mentions -politics, again, barring passing mentions Any comments, reviews, and criticism will be much appreciated. And thank you for reading. ---------------------------- Disclaimer: This story is my original work and only posted on the Royal Road and Scribblehub websites. If you should find this story elsewhere or under another name, please let me know. Also please don't be too hard on me when I make occasional grammatical mistakes, English is my third language after all. XD Edit suggestions are very welcome though. Discord

The Last Journey
A slice of life litrpg story... or is it? It's burning slow, though. Moving on: War comes with a great cost. Lives and time wasted for most part. One could either be run with sword, be poisoned, be bowed, and sometimes meet their end with just a tiny speck of wood. With magic, it becomes even more colorful. From lightning, to worse poison, to hovering rocks, to weird bladed leaves, to whipping roots, and to a lot more odd things easily reasoned with magic. A wonderful creation. But once used to something more than wonder, more than tricks to gather laughs, it becomes worse. War becomes worse. For there is not only blood to be spilled. A particular town almost met the same end. Soldiers geared with swrords and bows came with mounts. Horses burning lush grasses as it cracked boulders and the soil alike with every step. The kind that only war ones could ever do. Even strange wheeled creations that oozed danger were towed, loaded with something meant to destroy. But not once had they acted upon what such devices should've done, nor what an an army is supposed to do. Siege never occurred, as much as a command to war. No. Magic existed so a simple little fire is all the worth the town has. No sword drawn, no arrows nocked, nothing. Just some mana spent and through the ash they march. That was how Nudius saw her end. It came not even as a surprise. She didn't have the moment to fully register what occurred before she found herself in an empty dark space. Life lost, time spent. All from a fire that had not even touched her. But she knew very well that it was magic. Something she wished to have and strived for to have. Yet it seemed that none of it would matter now. Nudius was well aware of what the color around meant, of the odd situation, of the unfeeling state of her being. It was death and that was it. She didn't have to worry or dream further. Although there wasn't what she truly wanted in what death to her is, but at least, Nudius was comforted to what she believed death is. Rest. But little did she know there's something more than that empty space. It wasn't only the promise of rest, but was also more than she could ever hope for. Another chance at life. Another chance to dream. ***Tags are there just in case. You never know! Umm... HI-MI-TSU. Story blurb+: This is slow burn, quite slice of life story about a girl learning magic. All the while as she fatten herself up. So yeah, progression fantasy. But there's Litrpg! Numbers! Magic! Spells! And of course! There's something more. But read on ahead, please. Oh yes. Plot! There is, too. Disclaimer: The cover isn't made by me. Just layered it with a text. I got it from a free website, if I correctly recall. I'll see to it. (Haven't worked on it.)
