《My never ending cycle of Life and Death》Cycle 1 - Chapter 8: 1st War - Total defeat (III)
Advertisement
"1st army! go there, and crush the enemy, 2nd army, circle around the enemy's line of defense and attack them! 3rd garrison, prepare the catapult, and 3rd battalions of archer! ready you fire arrow on the next volley!"
never would I expect, a little child like him to be able to command the army so fluently like that, and his charisma, that can shake even the army itself.
within a mere moment after his arrival, the battle field, which should be a grinding ground for the enemy country could become our victory...
not only 1, almost all of the commander captivated, then the battle tide soon...
became ours...
This war, this war which should be our 1st and continuous defeat after another became a victory for us... our total victory...
and the start of his legend...
the wonder Child of our kingdom...
"Lynn! Lynn! Lynn!"
"Lynn!"
the shout of victory, and tears of joy shown on the haggard man' face, and a juvenile which soaked by blood... he alone could change a losing battle into a winning battle and brought victory...
however, never would they expect, that, this scandal of theirs will bring a general... no, a great general to our Kingdom, a general, big enough to topple the other continent's kingdom and empire, which could even unify the continent...
***
"Sir! the 3 marquises and 4 viscounts along their faction rebelled! furthermore, we've surrounded in between of enemy forces!"
front, behind, even from the surrounding mountain... there's no way out now...
"sigh... 4 dukes... my comrades"
the general of Riezet, the one who fought alongside us this long, he had that weary look in him... at that moment, he that always look so young became older...
"It looks like, we've been trapped here..."
"Yes, Saber, Never would I know that we'd die in the same place huh..."

"hahaha! Sahm! I never expect to have the same idea as you... then, Lance? what do you think!"
"Guahahah! ol' fogey! Of course, I know what you guys think! I and zhield bro have been ready anytime!"
"Indeed! let's make those treacherous bastard feel our power! the 4 dukes of Riezet!"
"Hey! count me in too!"
hearing the shout from our old friend, Frezgour the general of Riezet who's feel abandoned, we laugh out loud and madness flown from our eyes.
soon after, cries of despair reverberated on the fort, although we can't kill the enemy outside, it's a simple thing to do if it's only slaughtering those fools inside the fort...
"Damn it! Marquis Lily! these dukes are monsters! Gyaaa *slashed*"
"Damn it! those fools outside must be grinning their mind out of this! they should've already advance here! why those fools of Xierz taking their time!"
"Shiiit! there's no one in the vanguard anymore! the rear guards have been decimated! we're doomed!"
hahaha! those fools can blame their stupidity to enter a den of tigers with their puppies! with this, at least the enemy outside won't take any soldiers from our side, and there won't be any traitor to come back to the Riezet Kingdom!
Not long after, the slaughter ends, thus, Sahm said...
"Something's weird... there aren't any sounds outside... what's wrong?..."
Indeed... what is...
"Phew... ol' zhield, looks like our ol' life had yet to end eh..."
"Huh? what is it, Lance? what's wrong outside..."
"Oooh, such a tactic! such a magnificent trail of blood, look ol' zhield, that face seems familiar..."
"Right, just as Saber say... looks like that face is familiar... "
Curious, I peek at the battlefield outside, the south side which connects us to the border between Xierz and Riezet has shown that a battle being fought on the mountain side and the road side... however, there's only a small river of blood on the mountain, while there's magnificent trail of blood on the roadside...

"hmmm, it's too far to look at them from here, but, it's a good thing to advance our troops! let's go! we need to help the person there!"
said Frezgour in an exhilarated voice, I can understand him, this is a chance to reverse the thing! with this, not only can we stay alive! we can even destroy Xierz's troops in one swoop!
"Charge!"
"Charge!"
"Charge!"
the sound of hooving cavalry reverberates the surrounding field of corpses, and thus, our army advance and helping the anonymous army which is led by a juvenile covered with blood and gore...
"That sword technique..."
Gasp!
"Lynn!"
"Ohh! hi gramps! father! let's kick these puny puppies out and go home... I need to take a bath..."
said Lynn, while continuing to slashing both of his hands to the surrounding Xierz's soldier...
And this is the 1st battle of his which being spoken in myth and legends, as the coming historian of Riezet will believe as a fairy tale of the olds...

Truck-kun Gets Sacrificed
Driscoll is my own version of a world with a game-like "system" of endless possibilities. MC has his own status, classes, skills, magic, and a living greatswordstaff in a world of monsters, demi-humans of all kinds, and even the supernatural. Sound good? Well, at first for Tru, it was a dream come true(I'm sorry). At least until reality hits him again and again. His quest from God is vague and must be discovered by him along the way. Hopefully, he can figure that out someday but for now, this new world's threats and his potential for power are motivation aplenty. With His new partner by his side, he's ready to embark on his mission of infinite sacrifice, however many lives it takes. The setting is pretty standard for fantasy, with my beginner attempts at writing. Litrpg elements are definitely involved here but It'll calm down as the story progresses and the world's foundation is laid. Judeo/Christian themes and principles take a major role and will be a backbone for much of the story. The fights will paint a picture in the mind rather than just be a bunch of number crunching. While he is meant to be a sacrifice to save all of Driscoll, he needs to gain enough power and influence to be a worthwhile sacrifice, or so he thinks. And so carnage will ensue as he avoids death as best he can while at the same time sacking himself for others. Truck Coon is your average determined, jiu-jitsu practitioner, tax associate that just started his new career. He dies to save kids from a semi-truck(Truck Coon got truck-kun'd, making him Truck-kun) and is transported to another world rather conventionally by God. Upon his arrival, he is quickly confronted with his first conflicts in the wild. Give it a shot and let me know what you think. Chapters are currently between 2300 and 4000 words and I try to post weekly, but also deal with severe limitations that cause late posts often. I have zero actual experience with writing stories and only recently started reading web novels in 2020. If you end up hating it, let me know your thoughts in a detailed comment or review, especially if you love it though :D I want to get better and welcome the feedback, so expect changes to be made with any flaws that y'all point out which I don't already have plans to address in future chapters. That being said, keep it constructive in nature, please. I have no Idea how the formatting and such will go, so if you like or dislike some techniques I try, give me that well-appreciated feedback! Thank you for reading.

8 97Evolution of the Lazy Gamer by Bruticus
It had been five years since the game Royalroad first appeared. A new expansion had been released and one person was assigned by his company to review it. That was the beginning of the story of a lazy, unheroic character who would meet others just as lacking in the heroism department as he was. Still life (or virtual life) throws you curve balls and you never know what will happen.
