《Kingun》Bring the World Into the Fight
Advertisement
Richard stood in the middle of the arena. The statues glared at him but they didn't move at all. Ventus looked at them intrigued.
"Didn't you say they would attack you to kill?" Ventus inquired.
"I did" he chuckled, "But they will only attack me when I enter combat position, after all, they are still training puppets"
"Then what are you waiting for? attack already!" Ventus shouted excitedly.
"Okay,okay, killer" He laughed, "Watch closely"
Richard finally raised his arms and entered a fighting stance. His stance was simple with his arms guarding his chest whilst he jumped lightly changing from one foot to the other.
As if he had poked a hornet's nest the statues finally moved and began their attack. Five statues dashed from the encirclement at an incredible speed, each step allowing them to cross 10 meters, and as such, in instants, they arrived before Richard.
"First kid" Richard spoke leisurely, "You can use the earth to reinforce your body as an armor"
His two feet now were on the ground, with his right foot forward. A yellow-brown aura glowed on his fists that rapidly attracted rock fragments towards them. In instants, a black set of gauntlets was formed. The statues jumped and fired punches and kicks towards him from different directions.
He jumped and dodged the attacks with ease. As he was in mid-air his feet shone with the yellow-brown aura once more, earth fragments flew towards them and black boots formed around his bare feet.
"And with said reinforcement" He grinned, "You can do things like this!"
In mid-air, he spun his body and delivered an ax kick to the head of one of the statues making it explode, he then kicked the headless body and used it as a foothold to direct his body towards another statue. His body was with it's back turned towards that statue leaving it wide open to receive a fist from that statue, the statue noticed this and punched out.

"You can also use the technique to create weaponry and defensive gear" He laughed.
On his back shone his aura once more. Instantly a great black earthen shield was formed that clashed against the oncoming fist. The fist was intact, but the shield was as well. The force had been completely nullified and made Richard stop.
"You can also use some tricks"
The shield shone with his aura and it transformed, it turned into a big spike that grew and pierced the statue's body destroying it. Richard's hand glowed making earth shards fly to it, in instants congealing a black sword. He spun his body and swung the blade decapitating the remaining three statues in an instant.
Richard's aura glowed around him, he grinned and raised his right hand to the height of his head. On it a black javelin formed ethereally, he gripped and the javelin solidified.
"It can also be used to produce ranged attacks" He smiled
Richard threw the javelin making it fly towards one of the statues at the corner of the arena instantly killing it. His right arm was still stretched as he raised left hand to the side of his head. In the same fashion, he created another black javelin and gripped it, he threw it and instantly impaled another statue.
"And if you're strong enough, even beating firearms is not too much of a hassle" He grinned.
His arms began to shine with aura as they bulked up. When they first were strengthened they were frail looking and became lean and strong, now they seemed like two tree logs stuck to the man's somewhat thin chest.
His hands became a blur as he began to repeatedly create and throw javelins so fast that all Ventus could capture from his moves were the statues being impaled and destroyed at the corners of the arena, and as they "died" dark dust clouds rose into the air, and soon enough the whole fighting space became impossible to discern.

"You can also use this technique to alter the field to your advantage"
Ventus hear a massive stomp and the earth began to tremble. In instants, the fighting platform shot up and raised itself above the dust cloud allowing Ventus to see once more, but since the platform was too high, Ventus had to change his position and choose a higher standing seat in the arena so that he could further accompany the demonstration.
As he adjusted himself to his new position and sat down he saw just how much his master had destroyed with those javelins. The previous 93 remaining statues were now only 40. He was now standing in the middle of a far smaller encirclement.
"And, if you're so inclined to this spectrum, you can also use this technique to practice and develop the art of puppetry"
Richard clapped his hand and then slowly spread them apart. As he did, dozens of mana threads began appearing between them, however, they didn't stay connected and broke apart. He slapped his hands on the ground and the platform shook.
As he stood there kneeling on the ground, 20 stone beasts sprouted out of the ground. They were roughly the size of wolves but were shaped like a plethora of different beasts.
"Attack little buddies!" He commanded laughing.
The beasts dashed out and the statues dashed out all at the same, the beasts jumped and attacked the statues and 20 of them were instantly eliminated as the beasts bit at their throats. But the statues were no pushovers as they in a final struggle took out the beasts by piercing their "hearts". both parties exploded into dust.
Richard stood up and faced the remaining 20 statues with a grin plastered in his face.
"And finally, when you reached a level were your attunement with the earth and skill in the use of the technique are high enough"
The whole ground begins to shine around him and Ventus could visibly see that the aura coming from the ground didn't belong to Richard. Rather, this time it seemed as if the world was feeding its power to the man and boosting his capabilities
"You can tap into the power of the earth and bring the world itself into the fight" he concluded.
The statues dashed towards Richard. He, however, didn't dodge, instead, he dashed at their direction, and far faster than before. It seemed as if he had teleported and arrived in front of a group of statues.
He punched out and the punch hit the air, But the statues were hit nonetheless. Ventus saw that when he punched, five columns of rock roughly the width of Richard's arm grew from the ground and accurately pierced the statues in the chest exploding them.
Them Richard spun his body and made a round-house kick that hit the air again. From the ground a massive pillar sprouted hit ten statues from the side, stacking them together, blasting them off the platform and making them hit the benches, exploding them.
He dashed and arrived instantly in front of the five remaining statues. He fired off an uppercut into the air, five spikes the sprouted from the ground piercing the statues through the skull finishing then the demonstration. He stomped the ground and the platform then returned to its original position.
Richard's arms deflated as he exhaled heavily, his energy stopped circulating as he stretched and looked at Ventus.
"So kid" he grinned widely, "Is this good enough for ya?"

Almave
Welcome to AlmaVé. First thing you have to know is that it's a tragedy. Nope, not talking about my book yet. It's a tragedy that you're reading this instead of clicking on chapter 1. I did fail speech introductions after all. My story? Right that's what you're here for. My bad, try this: Lilia Hammond is reborn (cliché, but we all know we enjoy it when it's done for a purpose) as Syndra Sanmey. She was a graphic designer who hadn't caught her break yet. She was paralyzed for months before she was offered the opportunity to join a program that would allow her to-NOPE! not virtual reality. The doctors killed her and dumped her body. Tough. In her new world, Lilia has to fight herself to find out who she truly is. With the possibility to cast magic and a second chance at life, Lilia thinks she can really make something for herself. Her goal? Become the greatest artist the world had ever seen. The rub? World is a bit darker than anything she saw on earth. Thankfully, Lilia is getting quite familiar with the darkness inside her and her magic might just be the thing to save the-hey! wait it's not that kind of book. No saving the world. No hero syndrome. Just magic and blood and a bit of crafting. Yup. Fighting. Romance? Eh? What's that? The first arc is Lilia's shift from Earth to creating backstories for the three major characters. It's not funny and light. It's often dark and funny. Ah, I really should have gone through a punk-rock phase. Or goth. Would I look good with black hair? Hmm.. There are three MCs and they are Jackson, Daryl, and Lilia/Syndra. Daryl is currently kidnapped and Jackson just awakened his magic. I don't want to spoil (much) but soon things will be very fun to write. Hope to see you there! Leave a comment even if you're just stopping by so I can say hey! Chapters to be published twice weekly. Check tags before reading.

Bells and Taxes
The territory of Palmetto, ragged and mean, was once the banishing lands for the kings of the Old World. In that sea of hills they exiled their enemies, their upstarts, the deposed tyrants and rebels who came too close. Ancient prisons emptied their depths into Palmetto. Persecuted tribes fled to the refuge of its hideaway valleys. After a century and some, the land of Palmetto had evolved into a patchwork of flimsy feudalism, cult compounds, and grift economies. The merchant princes, having built some gleam of stability, reached out to the Old World's new kings for help in raising the orderly sword of bureaucracy. The event known as the Papercut Revolution closed the First Era. The new dawn rose on The Directory, who took the yoke of power into their responsible hands and began to bring forth their Good Era.
