"What happened, Tarot?" a father almost of my age asked.
"Satan was here." I said.
"What?" they shared looks in confusion.
"I gave him place to eat." I gasped. I confessed, "He is eating them all. They are eating them all in heaven and he let me see it happen."
"What are you saying? Have you gone insane, old man?" a young priest raised his volume.
"He is eating them. I saw them drink blood. I know what they can be fed on."
"Who?"
"Satan!" I snarled, "He is here. He is here!"
"Take this mad man out of here before he says something more stupid than this." An old father commanded a young priest in ear.
"What else stupid thing can he say more than this? This man has lost his mind." A woman told him, "Luke, take him out of here. And take it easy."
The young priest seized my arm and took me - laughing stock old man out of there.
Luke took me out of the church gate.
And when he returned then he saw nuns and priest say, "That man couldn’t even walk properly. He always needed crutches. How can he walk now?"
"Talk to me, Rick! Why don’t you talk to me?" Stacy was shouting at him.
Tarot wanted to speak but he could not. No matter how much he tried to breath out words, he was just finding him lips in motion with no sound.
She slapped him and seized his head, "Talk to me! Talk to me!"
But no words came out of his mouth…
The phone rang in four in the morning. I was woken up by the noise. I was now quiet annoyed of those four cats in there. How did they come inside my room? Now I had left sleeping in lobby and was upstairs. I couldn’t think of sleeping in the same room where Satan had eaten the divine toddler. But the phone was still in there.

I stepped out of his bed and went towards the room. Then I pushed the door open and pulled the receiver.
I cleared my throat before speaking anything.
"Hello, father! Is it you?" the voice came. Joey had finally called me!
I was delighted but I coughed at first.
"Are you there, father?"
I cleared my throat again. Then I realized it was the only one thing coming out of my mouth as sound.
I attempted to speak but it was random gasps what came out.
"ARE YOU OKAY THERE?"
I could not speak.
"HELLO! ARE YOU ALL RIGHT THERE?"
I nodded but despite of knowing my nodding wasn’t going to be heard or seen.
I tried to speak for another minute but heard Joey panicking. Then something happened that I didn’t want to happen.
The call was hung up.
Did he think I am also dead?

World After Calamity
Two hundred years ago, the Calamity occurred, an event which changed the terrain and climates of the world immensely, shifting continents and regions, developing new religions and altering life itself. The existence of magic and monsters was no longer able to be concealed, and until the Sage came and ended the Calamity, the world lived in chaos. Now, two hundred years later, two primary forces in the globe, united under a single government, oversee all magical and supernatural crime and disruptions, working from the shadows and in the light to ensure the safety of all. Something has upset the delicate balance the Sage created, however, and monsters sightings occur more and more frequently, and the signs of a second Calamity have begun to reveal themselves. At the same time, young superhumans begin training to fight against the forces causing this, to protect the mundane from monsters, and to ensure ancient artifacts are preserved and secured. This is the story of Team Lusvar, a unit of extraordinary superhumans, the world they live in, and the missions they're sent on and trials they face.
8 87Legend of the Seven
Humans were cast out of Eden for committing the original sin. Now Seven will answer, should Humanity live forever? But first, join Team Six in their rescue mission turned daring prison break from death. Author's Corner: Welcome to the Legend of the Seven series #LOTSseries, my Guardians.This is my first novel turned webnovel. I'm returning to this fictional world after a 6-year hiatus with a lot of personal growth and insight. Insights gained from being a lifetime reader.I was the kid who read Harry Potter and Percy Jackson. I was the new adult who read I Shall Seal the Heavens and Ark. I've lost count of how many fictional worlds I've visited and lived through for I grew up on western novels but discovered eastern novels in my college years. This is my attempt to marry those two literary styles.It's my hope that this journey becomes more than just a book. If you're reading this simply expecting an ego power trip then turn back. There'll be action but with a lot of metaphysics and discussion on life with its accompanying issues. I strive to ground and make this webnovel relatable with verisimilitude. This webnovel is about choice. Freewill and its consequences. I give my characters autonomy to do and be themselves which sometimes leads to me rewriting and replotting because of pleasant surprises from my characters. Even the character who dies within the chapter they are introduced can have a massive impact with several ripples. So, there'll be stories on love and loss, hope and despair, but most importantly, it'll be a story. Release schedule: M, W, F - I aim for afternoon (1pm to 6pm) MST. I'm working on a project, codenamed "Guides' Sanctum", to make LOTSseries even more alive with special voice-overs, extra stories, behind the scene stuff, and so much more. But it can only come online when certain benchmarks are reached. The listed goals will help us get there. Goals:50 readers will unlock 4 chapters a week - Extra release on Thursday100 readers will unlock 5 chapters a week - Extra release on Tuesday250 readers will unlock 6 chapters a week - Extra release on Saturday500 readers and Project Guides' Sanctum comes online!Links:Lotsseries.blogspot.comSocial:@tonyswag0 - twitter@lotsseries - FacebookI'm thrilled at what is happening and what is still to come. Never be afraid to drop a comment. My DM is open. I'll work to keep this work free to access but I ask you to enjoy it from official sources so that you can be part of the discussion. There's magic in reading together to form a shared experience.Again, welcome aboard, my Guardians.
8 144The Reincarnated Heroine
In a land quite unlike our own, a certain girl bravely fought against the being only known as the Lord of Darkness. Alas, right at the end of their battle, with the last of his strength the Lord of Darkness managed to pierce the girl's heart with his final spell. However, it was not her fate to perish that day. Even if her body failed, her soul lived on. Fate decreed her to live on in another world with another body. This is her story.
8 221Unwitting Champion
"In stories this is always easy. There's magic and powers, and quick steps to claiming that power for one's self. This doesn't feel true for me. I'm supposed to be a Champion, whatever that means, and yet I don't feel important. I don't have all the bells and whistles, which honestly feels familiar even in a new world. But what was I expecting? I haven't had the worst life - there are people with worse problems than mine - I've known what it is to struggle, to be pulled down instead of being helped up.This is nothing new."When in great peril, the Kingdom of Althor has no choice but to send a call into the void, beseeching the Fates to bring them a man who would save them from the coming darkness. Unfortunately the path the Fates chart is often unknowable to men and the Champion who appears is not what the kingdom expected.Unwitting Champion is a story of a guy displaced, dealing first and foremost with trying to survive in a world where he is no longer a person but a tool, and - at least from the reaction of those around him - a shoddy one at that. His major goal is to survive long enough that either he can run or find a way home, because as exciting as the possibility of learning magic might be, he would rather have a boring life than a short life.
8 500Dreams or Another World - Not a Zero
No, my name’s not Doug. I lied. Waking up in this hospital bed and right away I’m being questioned. They say I’m a hero, saved some girl. I don’t remember any of that. Like the stories you read, a stranger in a strange world where magic and fantasy races exist, but technology hasn’t advanced. It was all just a slice of life as I learned and grew in this world. Was… Author’s notes. Original work. First draft. Inspired by various fantasy games and books. Written with a focus on character development and interaction. Combat, progression, leveling, classes, but no numbers or stats. I’ll try to keep the language clean, PG-13, no smut. I’m in the US, writing in English. I intend to complete this story or at least bring it to a proper ending. I have a destination in mind. I find as I write, doors and ideas open, while others close and are discarded. I'm new to creating. My apologies now while I learn. I have not settled on a book cover or artwork, still looking for something that fits. Registered & Protected #20VjeKDv2U6nynW6
