《ELECTUS - A tale of Peaceful Demons.》One eyed man beast
Advertisement
Stopping in mid air, Eric felt how he started losing control of his own body, as if he was just a passenger in a Wagon he can't drive!
The Fire blasting through his eyes rose higher and higher until it became 2 meters long, sparing his eyebrows but he could feel his hair sizzling from time to time!
Spreading his arms wide, maneuvering his feet good enough to spin in mid air at the same exact spot, starting to break fire from his palm after, a base for a tremendous force has been set although he has no control of what's happening right now!
"What's he doing?" Stefan complained with a little shout, once he noticed that Eric isn't flying back down.
Being overwhelmed already by the approaching enemies, Mogranius started shooting three Fireballs at once over and over to tame the masses.
Buying himself a second to gaze upon the sky, Mogranius immediately noticed what's happening and with a high pitched tone he yelled. "Aaah shit."
A lot of Guards were shocked but yet interested towards the Fire expanding on the sky, they stopped on their spots although they already climbed on top of the Debris!
This gave Mogranius an advantage, because he had more time to shoot down the Guards who didn't stop because a little show.
Eric felt himself getting surrounded by cone like walls, or we can better call it a Fire Tornado! Although not in control, he is forming a freaking Fire Tornado!
It didn't even take a quarter of a minute for the Tornado to explode in size, stretching over 20 feet tall in one second and becoming over 60 feet a blink of an eye later!
Back on the ground, Mogranius started walking a step backwards by every Fireball he shot, sensing what's about to happen next!
Eric stopped spinning and stopped blasting Fire from his hands as well, giving a bit more power to his feet in aims of flying out of the Fire Tornado, now it's time to put this thing into use!
Eric stopped blasting fire out of his feet once he reached the top, clapped his hands and started falling down from the sky, with his hands deep in the Tornado!
Forcing the whole thing to split in half by each second he fell down from the sky. The Tornado's momentum deformed heavily as it split, but Eric remained unharmed!
In just a few moments, the Tornado went from spiraling elegantly in the sky to deforming into a more wild, spread out and even a considerably more dangerous form.

Imagine a Tornado being split vertically in half like a fruit tart.
That's how he split the tornado with his current hand positioning, which sank down deeper every second he reached the smaller areas of the Tornado as if he was sucked in although that wasn't the case at all!
He lightly fell on the ground as if angels carried him down, the aftermath of the split Fire Tornado following him down as well, under his control as if it was easier than swinging a sword.
Eric connected the two raging pieces of fire together and like an ocean wave he led it against their enemies, blasting through the rumble Mogranius caused and completely obliterating everyone who dared to stand in front of the Fire.
Howls of pain haven't become an option, because the Fire is so hot that it doesn't even allow the enemies a second to live. Their armour gets burned off, their bones and flesh too as well as their ashes, all in a second or two!
That wave of fire singularity burned over a hundred illustratian guards in seconds!
The Fire rolled down across the entire main road, at the edge breaking the big wooden main gate down as if it was nothing.
The young Electus burned every living creature who dared to oppose him, except one.
One illustratio!
This one didn't seem to be an ordinary guard, not at all.
He was even wearing a thick Silver armor which was not what Guards are clothed with.
That extreme fire Eric released couldn't burn that man, or is he a man?
In a split second that man who seemed to be almost a hundred yards away, now was in front of Eric which forced everyone in the group to take a step back in shock except Eric who was forced to stay, he can't control his body after all.
Looking eye to eye or dare I say eyes to eye, one powerful person met another!
Hesitant to yet speak, but curious towards Eric's burning eyes, speaking became irrelevant and the sounds of sizzling Fire around them gave a stronger atmosphere.
Although unable to speak, Eric felt convinced that he burned this man with that wave of fire a little earlier.
Because this manbeast only seems to have one functional eye, his lips were burned and full of scars. His nose seems to be completely cut off, and he didn't have hair on his head.
Although some green colour on his skin visible, his head looks like a chunk of coal!

Eric didn't hold back, or whatever controlled him, didn't hold back.
He continued to blast fire out of his hands, slapping much like a bear he kept throwing left and right slaps.
Those fire strikes seemed to light houses behind the burned man on fire but Eric's target remained untouched. How?
So Eric stopped blasting Fire, glancing at the Manbeast!
The oddly overpowered creature said "I'm your superior, child. Stop trying."
Feeling control of his own two arms and legs again, seeing the Fire lit on his eyes delicately shun down in three seconds, Eric immediately asked. "Who in hell's name are you?"
Turning around and walking away, the Manbeast answered with a gasp for air. "Your heart will be mine."
Afterwards the creature disappears in the blink of an eye, like he vanished completely.
Snap!!
Just like that, gone!
As the creature disappeared, so did the fire Eric alighted when he kept throwing shots but kept missing his target and hitting houses instead.
Eric turned to Mogranius with his eyes widened up in shock and yelled "How is this possible? Who was this man?"
Still not understanding how Eric would stop to hold a conversation in such a situation, Mogranius found it decent to shout. "Grab Stefan and fly the hell out of here!"
As soon as they hit the sky, illustratio archers and spearmen did not miss the chance to try to shoot them down.
That man beast distracting the group, was all that the Guards needed to gather up.
With waves of spears and arrows shot against them, Eric had to rely on his senses to dodge arrows especially, because if he just kept flying in the same direction, he wouldn't have gotten hit once but several times.
The spears and arrows flew up so rapidly and constant, that one would think 1,000 Soldiers are underneath. But there are merely above two hundred although more just kept coming.
Behind Eric flew Mogranius, looking down and blasting unholy Fire through his mouth to burn arrow tips so they won't get shot down.
All while trying not to torch Woldemir, who is taking shelter on his arms as they are escaping this hole!
"Shoot!" Yelled the Guard Commander of the Catapult operator Platoon.
As Eric was flying up towards the sky, he noticed several rocks fly above him. Glancing down, he could see a lot of Catapults!
30? 40? 50?
The numbers are not certain, but Catapults have a far longer reach. Something has to be done immediately for the sake of survival, flying away is not enough!
Eric threw Stefan on the air for a short bit, bursted out fire out of his hand which shortly transformed and shaped much like a bear claw after.
With that claw he caught Stefan and without waiting long he tossed the man further than the eye could see.
The little fire on Stefan's clothes caused from the Bear Claw got slowed down and shunned thanks to the intense speed, however the man didn't stop flying up, who knew Bear Claws were so strong!
Eric turned upside down, opened his arms wide and spiraled on the spot blasting fire out of his palms too and forming yet another Fire Tornado, but this one is forming upside down!
This tornado sucked in the closest boulders shot by the illustratian Catapulters, like a sea sponge.
If the shots were out of the Tornado's physical reach, the Tornado sucked it in and blasted it downwards!
Those Boulders who were too far away lost their momentum and started flying down again, making the Boulders hit the illustratio ran kingdom.
These Boulders are a meter across each, they can completely demolish a House!
A young kid used their weapons against them, destroying tens of houses and giving anyone hit by the boulders, no chance of survival. What an embarrassment for the Capital Kingdom of [Country] Occidentis Ignis.
Without waiting for the illustratio to shoot the third wave of ranged weapons, Eric stopped spinning, turned right side up and with a downward hand wave he made the inverted Tornado fly in lighting speed towards the hard ground of Crutal Kingdom.
When the fire Tornado met the ground it spread around everywhere.
Transforming into a shape much like a large piece of wheat dough falling from a high distance.
As satisfying it was to see from above, it became tremendously dangerous.
Apart from burning 1/6 of the Kingdom, it caused an earthquake. Enough to shake the entire Domain hard enough to leave the illustratio dumbfounded.
While the illustratio used tens of seconds to analyze what just happened, Eric headed towards the sky.
Shortly after he saw Stefan falling down from the heavens and screaming at a high pitched voice.
Fortunately Eric caught him and the gang flew away from Crutal Kingdom, leaving the fruits and vegetables behind, but what else was missing?

Wander West, in Shadow
BOOK 1 COMPLETED A young wizard journeys west, through dark forests and dangerous lands, searching for something. Accompanied by a wild witch who has secrets of her own, they come across terrible creatures, hauntings, cursed villages, and memories from their past. Who else will they meet along their journey, and to find what he is looking for, how far will the wizard have to wander west? NOTE: The above synopsis is intentionally written to be as spoiler-free as possible. If you would like a more in-detail synopsis, one that contains minor spoilers, please check out the "Synopsis" chapter at the beginning of this fiction. If you read and enjoy, please leave a rating or review! FORMERLY TITLED: THE GLIMMERLING This story was formerly titled "The Glimmerling", because the first part was a short story of that title; it has since been expanded upon, thus the title change. Chapters 1-8 (30k words) are the first 'arc', if you want to get a feel for the story. To give some context on the setting: Magic is a bit weaker in this story than you might be used to, and we start off following some relatively new magic users. For some perspective, being able to light a campfire with magic is considered relatively advanced for someone who is the age of the main character. Magic can become very powerful - and there are some examples of powerful wizards within this story - but it's not where the main characters are yet. Part of the story is about following them as they learn more about magic. Enemies are also very dangerous, and running, hiding, or trying to talk their way out of a dangerous situation is often a better choice than fighting for the characters. While I have added tags for traumatizing content, sexuality, violence, swearing, etc. I try to avoid super-explicit descriptions of these things. But they are part of the story.

The Traitor Games
Welcome to the Traitor Games, and congratulations on your invitation to join as one of the races putting on a show for the galaxy. Your species has been judged as too violent for integration into the Galactic Conglomerate and thus the decision has been made to relegate you to a probationary period during which members of your species will be pitted against each other in games of lies and betrayal. Unfortunate, but the great thing about a probationary period is that it can end! How can we do that; you might be asking. Well, that's easy, if those participants can earn enough points through playing the games, they can potentially buy out your probationary time. Of course, other rewards will also be on offer for success in the games, and if none of your species chooses to be selfless, well then it just goes to show that you wouldn't have been a good fit for us anyway. All those on Earth unlucky enough to not be chosen to become part of one of the most popular shows on Galactic Television, fear not. We will be streaming the various games your race is participating in all across the world. Should we run out of participants, even with our most generous three life system, we will draw more from the population. Good Luck! Noah Landry is one of these participants, he just doesn't know it yet. He blacks out while walking to the local bar McCaffery's, and finds himself, somewhere else. He's wearing clothing he doesn't remember putting on and rocking an absolute banger of a headache. Now he needs to figure out where he is, what's going on, and how he can get out of the Traitor Games. [Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Witchbone: The Goblins Winter
Themes found in these stories include friendship, found family, defying negative expectations, trying to figure out how to be a force for good in your corner of the world, doing heroic things even if you don't look or feel like a hero, and that being different isn't necessarily fatal. Summary: A spell of arctic weather. A mysterious death. The reading of a will. Strange tracks in the snow. Eleven-year-old Danny Hallow accepts his life, such as it is. His father is dead, his mother left years ago. His three Keepers are the only people aware of Danny's erratic and not-very-impressive psychic abilities. He has no friends, he's been suspended from school, and he's responsible for the life of a small brown bat that's ended up in his care. When Danny's estranged Uncle Enoch dies under mysterious circumstances, he and his Keepers are called to the town of Eddystone, New Hampshire for the reading of the man's will. Traveling four hundred miles from his dreaded hometown to attend, Danny is happy to get away, possibly inherit something interesting- and maybe find out more about his family while he's there. Arriving at the crumbling family estate of Gnomewood Home, he finds it to be hauntingly familiar, a bit creepy, oddly comforting, and possibly alive. When his uncle's will reveals that he's inherited Gnomewood and everything in it, he's determined to stay and make a happier life for himself in Eddystone, somehow. But at Gnomewood, he finds more questions than answers to his family's secrets. Disturbing old memories come to him in dreams. His psychic abilities begin to grow stronger, and as a result he becomes aware that a horde of cryptic creatures are plaguing the town of Eddystone, seemingly drawn out by the spell of an unusually frigid February. Toothy little goblins that are sneaky, vicious, and hungry. Goblins that take a particular interest in Danny. Will the emergence of the alien, and potentially dangerous, power he's inherited from his peculiar family tree help Danny survive the goblin infested winter, inadvisable attempts to befriend a terrifying boy with silver eyes, and a new school? Only if he learns to control them before they put him and everyone around him in danger. Before they convince some people that he should never have been allowed to exist at all. Before he becomes just another twisted tale in his family's bizarre history, kept hidden for centuries within the ivy-covered walls of Gnomewood Home.
