《There Is A Monster Among Us》Chapter 18: Fingerpointing
Advertisement
I am boiling in anger. My knuckles are almost white as I clench my fists, glaring at the four people marching to where we stand.
Seven people are now in the forward deck.
Freaking seven people remain in this forsaken ship. And that does not include the sole intruder.
The intruder did almost nothing compared to our treacherous guests here. It is making me laugh.
"You!" The first one who speaks was Yellow, pointing at us with hatred equaling mine. "Traitors! All of you! I can't believe you'll go as far as to murder everyone before assassinating us."
What the heck?
"Unfortunately for you wretches, things won't go as you planned. You're the ones who shall die here." Yellow draws his sword towards the night sky, the moon giving the blade a feisty glint.
The motion is impressive. But the nerve of the fool! Isn't he the one who ordered Orange?
Oh, I see now. These nincompoops are planning to shift the blame onto us. Then, they will have every right to have killed us in the eyes of the court. The audacity!
"Backstabbers! Not only did you use cowardly means to massacre these men, now you plan to kill us and cover up what transpired." I unsheathe my sword this time, my blade pointed down but at the ready. "I had plans to keep you alive," which is partially true, "but now I change my mind."
I glance at my female companion. My eyes meet hers, and the shine in her eyes tells me that she understands. There is a change in plans. Now is the moment for direct action. Pink also draws her short sword, prompting Red to pull out his saber.
Captain Greene, White, and Orange seem confused with the sudden development.
What about the Royal Order? The heck with it, our lives are being threatened, and we shall defend ourselves with every fiber in our being.
"Wait just a moment!" White puts up a hand, bafflement apparent in his voice.

I Was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace
Suddenly appearing in a different world, it looks like I got caught up in a Hero Summoning. And of course, I’m not the Hero, but it’s another guy……and while being very cautious and scared of the cliche of the cliche-like development, I was thrown into the maelstrom of war……or not. The Demon Lord? It was defeated a thousand years ago. Hero? He’s just the main actor in a festival. Nobles? They’re kindly taking care of us. The Demon Race? They have good relationships with Humans. Wars? It’s already 800 years since the last one. Monsters? The Guild and Order of Knight are taking care of them. Return to Earth? It is eventually No-Risk. What I’m planning after being caught up into this? I’m gonna enjoy the life in a different world as much as I want to, go on a cultural exchange and sightseeing, and after experiencing the festival that is only held once every ten years……I shall go home safely. The other world was――at Peace. A kind world where the three races, the Spirit World’s Magical Races, the Celestial World’s Divine Races, the Mortal World’s Human Races, they are kind neighbors to each other, with everyone living a peaceful and fulfilling life. But although I wished to peacefully spend a year before my return, for some reason, the heavyweights of this world keeps gathering around me, and……Thank you for reading I Was Caught up in a Hero Summoning, but That World Is at Peace novel @ ReadWebNovels.netRead Daily Updated Light Novel, Web Novel, Chinese Novel, Japanese And Korean Novel Online.
8 965Stranger than Fiction (Draft Edition)
Rewrite -> https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/55140/stranger-than-fiction 150k words of rewritten and new content, updating 3 times a day. Faith is like ice-cream. It comes in all flavors. Greek, Norse, Sumerian, Christian— just name it and it's there. Adventures, on the other hand, are like credit cards. The first taste is free, but the price only goes up from there. Family heirlooms, now those are true evil. You get burdened with them for sentimental reasons even if they’re icky. For Lukas Aguilar, it was a pendant. A small, weird metal nib with absolutely no vampiric tendencies. All he wanted was to finish the job at hand, and get on that book he had been postponing for a while now. Instead he got served with an apocalypse for breakfast, a cave full of eldritch monsters for the company and the whims of a ruined goddess for his To-Do list. Really, a simple NO from the universe would have sufficed. Acknowledgments Editor-in-Chief: Solo Starfish Artwork: Exodus

So I think some of you know that I already write poetry. Most of my poetry is free verse. I thought why not go ahead and just make a poetry book in here. Some of this is poetry I've already written, others are brand new. God I'm really nervous about this, I don't usually share my poetry.
