《In Z Finite》17 - It's Crazy at the Harbor
Advertisement
The hooded figures walk together through the harbor, chatting with each other as they move.
One of them says while looking at a ship on the harbor.
- That ship should do.
Another one calmly says.
-It's a galleon.
The first one questions back
-And?
The second one answer back
-It's too big for the four of us to sail in, as well as being heavily armed and usually carrying precious cargo.
The first one casually says.
-Then let's have the crew take us there, they should be able to drive this thing.
The second one ponders.
-I believe that driving is not the correct term.
A third hooded figure, who remained silent till now, barges into the conversation.
-Stop being childish and choose another one.
The first one answers her.
-No, you want to cross the sea paddling?
The last of the figures shyly says.
-Why don't we rent a ship or…
The first one decides to ignore the rest as he just goes ahead towards the galleon.
The second one reacts by saying.
-Great, what's he going to do now?
The third one complements by saying.
-Causing trouble, as usual, this brat.
He approaches one of the people who was carrying cargo onto the ship.
The first one questions the man.
-Hey, where is this going?
Loader
-To a colony on a small island.
The first one
-Huh, what a coincidence, is it the one with the angels? That's where I want to go.
Loader
-Yes, we're going to that nowhere island, now leave me alone.
The hooded guy begins to climb onto the ship by the plank they were using to carry the loads inside.
Loader
-Hey! What do you think you are doing?!
The hooded guy answers very naturally, in a matter-of-fact way.
-This ship goes where I want to go, so I'm entering.

The loader holds him by the arm.
The hooded guy just says.
-Let me go.
The loader then starts to yell for the attention of the others.
The rest of the cloaked figures run towards him.
The third one starts to… try to curse.
-Damn you! Damn you bratty freaking brat.
The fourth one just stares at her.
The second one tries his best to ignore her and says.
-He's going to die…
The fourth one exclaim exasperated
-We just had to buy our way in!
The hooded guy tries to escape the loader's grip by struggling a little, but his efforts only manage to make his hood fall back, revealing the face of a young man, who wore a crimson red headband complemented by his flashy hair, that stood up in an insane way. This crazy-looking guy was making a very angry face, which didn’t intimidate anyone.
Young guy
-Let me go!
Loader
-Get off the ship! Now!
Young guy
-Congratulations, I was already having a horrible day, I just wanted to get on this ship and go to the island, then you come and do this...
The young guy stretched his arm towards the porter, in his hand, he wore a gauntlet with a jewel that shone slightly.
Young guy
-Now I have to beat you into a bloody pulp.
The second one yells to the guy.
-Stop Deville!
Suddenly, the gauntlet emitted a strong blinding light that covered all of the ship and a good part of the harbor.
Upon seeing the sudden light, the loader just started to desperately scream.
-AAAAHHHH!
Immediately after his scream, the light dissipates, leaving everything intact.
Loader
-Huh? I’m alive?
And those were the man’s last words, because Deville quickly landed a right punch in the face of the loader which disoriented him, then he followed with a left punch in the pit of the loader's stomach, and finished him with a kick, knocking him off the ship.

After that sudden burst of movement, Deville just calmly walked into the ship while whistling.
The ship's crew started to crowd the deck, summoned by the confusion and the strong light, among them were uniformed soldiers of the forces the angels knew as the “inferiors”.
Deville just looks at them and smiles as he cracks his fingers.
The rest of the hooded figures decide to just give up, they all sit and watch the beautiful line where the sea and the sky meet while screams of pain echo through the harbor as Deville beats the crap out of everyone there.

Summoner's Journey
[Before you read - the story is officially dead. The reasons behind it are posted in the last chapter.] In a magic world on the verge of an industrial revolution, Ari Ragnarsson must uncover the truth behind his parents' disappearance. They were part of an organization known as the Order, which protects mankind from various threats - both human and supernatural. Now, after Ari's brands finally manifest, he leaves the safety of his village and travels to the continent. Strength is all that matters in this world and he must learn how to control his powers. There, he meets a man from another world, who's being hunted for merely existing. Their fates become intertwined, but not in a way either of them would appreciate. Author's note (contains minor non-story related spoilers about the MC and setting) This is a progression fantasy with LITRPG elements sprinkled on top. The main character is not a spellsword, but a summoner/support mage hybrid. Since he wasn't ambushed by a random god, there's no cheat item/spell and he has to rely on his skills and wits to survive in a world full of monsters. The story tries to show the moment when the old starts to be replaced by the new, with a healthy dose of magic and a little steampunk in the background. Also, it revolves around a party dynamic akin to RPG sessions. No health/mana bars. Numbers are secondary and the LITRPG elements focus more on classes/spells/runes and their evolutions. Tables are sparse at the beginning, but from chapter 7 onwards they appear more often. Still, I won't be copy-pasting the whole character sheet dozens of times per chapter.

Agent of the Alternates
This is the first Well of Souls story. Nathan Hunter, as well as five hundred other seniors at his high school, found themselves pulled into the deadly game in an alternate dimension of their school, where they had to survive against increasingly tough monsters while completing a series of Challenges as their numbers continued to dwindle with no end in sight. With no way off the property, nor any way out of the alternate and back to their real dimension, Nathan and his classmates battle for survival in the hopes that eventually, they will be freed from the game. Warning: Things will get repetitive at times, particularly after Arc 1. The reason for this becomes clear in the first couple of chapters of Arc 2. It is simply the nature of the lives they lead.
