《Shadow’s World》Chapter 3. Sigh My Progeny
Advertisement
After the story, all you can hear is “Waah the little doggie die why did it have to die. Wahh,” The two kids are crying their eyes out. The two morons weren’t any better. They were wiping their eyes with their sleeves and trying to hide their tears. Man, they are such children. Or maybe I am so great that any story I make can move people. I am the greatest being that has ever lived. I give them a minute to calm down. The kids have stopped crying and the adults have a worried look on their face. “Time for me to have some fun. You see that snake over there, you two morons attack it. You have five attacks and if you cannot give it a scratch on one of its scales, then I would let you go free. If not, I will kill you.” In a squeak “um even if you give us a billion years, I doubt we could scratch that thing. Can you please give an easier task, mister?” “Call me, shadow, and get to work, or else I will make it attack!” Both “Yes Sir!!” I wave my hand. “I will be nice. You guys can make a plan on how to attack the Cobra.”
They turn at each other and walk to the corner to discuss a plan. I gathered the children and got them to sit down next to me. “Where are your parents?” I asked. The little girl replies, “They are on an important mission to fight the Jeonglyeong. They left us with some people from the resistance, but someone captured them and we escape. We are hiding out in their territory because they wouldn’t think to look for us here. Without you we would give a bracelet and ship to the outside, to work for the Jeonglyeong as slaves. So thank you, mister, for helping us out.” The little girl grabs my arm and cries.

“That sounds retarded. You guys are technology advance you do not need human slaves. Right now machines are 100% superior to anything a human can do. No, the reason they have you guys in slaves is that they are afraid of you. The fairy users are stronger in their advanced stages of life and the Jeonglyeong is stronger in their early life. Around ages, 25-30 fairy users become stronger than the Jeonglyeong. They are lying to you guys and you guys brought it. You are children, so it is ok that you do not know how the world works. Also, are your parents black as well?” “Yes, we all look like we come from the same family.” “Um that shouldn’t be possible but I will look into it later.”
Seeing the kid’s faces after learning that the reason Jeonglyeong hunted them was a lie made me sigh. Not wanting to look at the children's faces anymore, I turn back to the morons. They were still discussing how to beat the King Cobra. “Hey, you two I will give you a hint. If there isn’t a way to scratch the snake, I love art. Entertain me and I will let you go.” Let’s see if they understand the hint I have given them.
With surprise looks on their faces, they turn back and talk again. “Hey, I will live forever but I have things to people to meet and things to destroy, so stop talking and fight the snake.” The first guy steps up. He summons a fire whip and hits the snake. Boom! What a weak attack without even needing the dust to settle, there is no way for that attack to hurt the snake. The guy sighs after seeing his attack does no damage. He then summons lightning arrows and tries to make a song. buzz, buzz, buzz buzz, buzzed. Man, what a lousy attempt, he must have no musical talent. I wave my hand and he falls to the ground. He drops like a bag of bricks, causing everyone to have a worry look on their faces. “Hey, I didn’t kill him. Everyone stopped looking at me like I killed him. I made him faint because his music was so bad. My god do you guys think I am evil enough to kill someone when they have another chance. Dude, it is your turn the do not disappoint or I will kill you both.”

He walks up. Tap, tap, tap. He tapes his foot. Clap, clap, clap. What is this crazy person doing? I scratch my head? The idiot dances, he makes a fire whip and hits the cobra in a steady beat. He then sprays water in the air and the cobra gets into the dance. It shoots different lights green, red, yellow, etc… The kids clap to the beat and dancing alone. Looks like these two get to live another day. The dude dances for a good five minutes and fell to the floor. The kids give him a round of applause, but then they look at my face. The room grows cold as I walk to the moron. Smiling, “That was a great job you save both of your lives. Congratulations here are your reward.” I snap my fingers and they disappear. The kids look in horror and the little girl demands, “You promise you wouldn’t kill them! What did you do?” “Hey calm down little kids, I didn’t kill them. I sent them into the ocean to force them to swim back. They shouldn’t have attacked me. Who do they think they are? I am a fair guy but not a nice one. You guys, I have another surprise to show you.” The King Cobra leaves and a green Chinese dragon break opens the door. “Hey, you could have waited outside you didn’t have to break open the door.” “I do not care that you are happy to see me do not break stuff as you please. Little kids are here and they cannot rescue themselves if the building collapses on top.”
“Surprise! Man stupid dragon. Now, you two get on the dragon so we can get out of here. This building is depressing. I need to go outside.” The dragon moved his head out of the doorway and the children ran outside and got a good look at his snake-like body. The little boy asks, “Cool! Is he your fairy?” “No, stop asking about my fairy and get on the dragon little boy.” The dragon rose into the air. “Um, will not be cold up here?” Ask the brat. “No, you are on a wind dragon not only can they control the elements, but they can also control the temperature. Stop asking me questions and look below. There is no way for your kids to fall like I said before this dragon can control the wind. He will not let to your fall.” The city lights brighten up the ground. It was a beautiful sight from the air, the reds, greens, and other different colors of the lights. I need to remind myself to paint a picture of this event. “Kids get some sleep tonight tomorrow and the rest of your lives will hectic, enjoy this peaceful night because it might be your last.” The kids fell asleep it is time for me to visit the next one.

The Way of Wrought Earth, or: My Tale of Rebirth as a Mostly Inanimate Rock
Mirage Winter. Second Clause, current act. A Relic Hunter's life is harsh — and often short — in the shattered lands of the Frontier. But when Whitelight reemerges, a legendary blade capable of separating anything the user wills it to cut, a newly formed unit organized of Hunter’s both young and old (and sediment based, in a particular case) vow to stop it from falling into cruel hands. Standing against them is the Frontier itself: the unbridled wrath of global federations, fellow Hunters, and those who lurk in the shadows of giants. As the world races to unravel a history desperately concealed, a semi-sapient rock soon realizes that some things are better off dead and buried — especially when those secrets carry an insidious corruption with no cure. Iteration: Mirror-glass Stars in Iron Oceans. First Clause. A soul wakes up as a rock, clinging to fragmented memories and knowledge of another era. What fate awaits such a creature? No, this isn't satire. Yes, I am dumb enough to try to take this seriously. Updates Wednesday, Friday with a variable amount of chapters. This story is not recommended for the easily disturbed. This is your only warning.

The Card Thief of Culnivar
Deep with the cozy kingdom of Daeton, among the generation-old farmlands and villages, a young farmer’s daughter stumbles upon a dead man. His elaborate clothing has been torn to ribbons, yet his skin remains unblemished. His face is peaceful, and tucked into the hand lying across his chest can be seen a solitary playing card. He is a Ludum Haeres. The last remnant of a Summoner. Numbered among those few capable of changing their destinies. The unseen rulers of the world known as Vesperia, and one of the most powerful creatures in existence. The woman knows none of this. And so, she picks up the card... This is my third novel on Royal Road, the first being "Beyond the Horizon's Eye", and the second being "The Dawnfire Archives". This story is something of a test in a new genre, that of CardLIT. We'll see how well it succeeds as the story continues. It takes place in a different setting than my other tales, with an entirely new cast of characters. It does, however, contain several ties between the stories. Average post between 1000 - 3000 words.

Over the summer gets extremely invested in a gacha game known as “Ultima Online” and plays it every single day with his real life friends Gig, Yuso, and Shigeto. Cryo becomes a well-known member of the community because he uploads videos online and livestreams and is especially well-known because he almost never pulls good units from the gacha due to his terrible luck, which makes his anger fun to watch. One day, Admin (Administrators/Developers of the gacha game) send him an email inviting him to their facilities to tour them as a thank-you for making content for the game. On his way to the facilities Cryo stops at a gas station to get some snacks and the gas station is stuck-up by a robber. The robber takes a cute girl hostage and threatens to kill her, so Cryo steps in and bodyslams the robber, causing the robber to aimlessly shoot a bullet which bounces off a rubber tire, just when Cryo thinks he saved the day, the bullet hits him in the head with a lot of force, but not enough to kill him, putting him into a coma. Cryo is then transported to purgatory where a cute goddess decides his fate to be transported to a realm that needed help, promising Cryo if he found 4 legendary swords in this world he would gain re-admittance to the life he once lived.

After being reminded of his terrible luck in which a flashback to his family dying in a house fire is shown, he decides maximizing his luck trait should be the best choice. He is then transported into this new world, which turns out to be the world of his gacha game, Ultima Online. He meets friends and foes and is tasked with collecting 4 swords that appear as lolis to Cryo. Using the gacha system, he creates a party of strong allies to aid him on his quest to return.
