《(OLD VER.) TRX's Adventures》Day 5: Flight and Swim
Advertisement
It was dawn. TRX and the others woke up. Green adorned the entire landscape. The winds caressed our protagonists as they observed everything around them.
They went to explore the surroundings. Visited a river that was close to them. There they took a bath. The crystal clear water was refreshing.
Then they went outside and lay down in the sun, drying off and resting.
- Hey... Does anyone know how many days we've been here? - asked Roundy.
- It's impossible for us to know, but I estimate three days. - said Pointy.
- I already want to go home... This place is very lonely... It scares me. - said Roundy.
- It scares us too, but we don't even know where we are. - said TRX.
- ...What do we do? We can't do anything... - said Blocky.
- Poor things... - said a hoarse voice in the distance. - Getting caught up in a conflict beyond their comprehension...
The group was startled after hearing that voice and turned to see where it was coming from.
It was about 20 meters away. It was someone whose face could not be seen because he was covered with a cloak. His cloak had several colors, to be more exact, it was blue and crimson red... And other, but mostly those. It also had a kind of v-shaped accessory in its forehead, it seemed to be made of gold.
- It is truly unfortunate... To be taken away from your home to fulfill a mission of which you don't have the most miserable idea... And to be forced to fulfill it... Although, to be honest, it's the first time something like this has happened... I won't allow you to continue advancing, it took us a long time to seal this world, the one that started it all.

- What are you talking about? - said TRX.
- Seal this... world? - said Roundy.
- So you're their comrade too? - said Blocky.
- Yes, the first monster said something about unsealing this world and something about a Hero. - said Pointy, looking sideways at that individual. - Tell us what the hero is!
- No. I will not... I have a lot of things to tell you, but it's impossible for me... I'm sorry... You must die.
He finished saying that, and it began to rain very hard and the powerful winds made Pointy unable to maintain flight and was swept away by them.
While this was happening, that individual jumped in Blocky's direction and attacked it with his right hand, from which a blade came out, but Blocky protected herself with a barrier of ice and made spikes come out of it, which pierced that subject... But what was on the spikes was only his cloak, he had disappeared.
Everyone was looking at the cape with surprise and, out of nowhere, that man, with his cape and all, appeared behind Pointy, who was floating, and gave him an elbow that made him fall.
- What? - shouted Blocky when she saw that.
- Watch out! - shouted Roundy, too, when he saw the enemy's movements.
The caped man quickly approached TRX, running with his arms behind his back... And he tried to stab TRX with his blade, but TRX was more agile and dodged it, stepping to the side of the blade and nimbly getting behind him to make him fall.
- Blocky, now! - shouted TRX.
- Huh?
Blocky, who was a few meters away, began to freeze the raindrops that fell on the guy. These turned into a kind of blades and, apparently, damaged the subject, who did not expect such an attack. From his body came out a red liquid that the group had never seen before.

- That was... Surprising, I have to admit... But... Are you ready for this? - shouted the man, who, still lying there, clapped his hands once and a tornado appeared in the distance. - Grand Tornado!
- W-What's that? - asked Blocky.
- It can't be, that... Is that wind? - said Pointy, who was being healed by Roundy. - Roundy, get away from me!
- ... It's okay!
Roundy moved about 25 meters away from Pointy. Pointy, seeing that Roundy was in a safe zone, launched himself towards the ground and exploded, making a deep hole.
- Come on, quick! - shouted Pointy to the rest.
They all went to the hole, which was about ten meters deep.
- Blocky, cover the roof quickly! - said Pointy.
- Okay!
Blocky did as they told her. She covered the hole with ice.
When the tornado passed over the ice, it began to break it. Blocky did her best to keep her defense from breaking, but she was getting tired. Roundy healed her during this time so Blocky wouldn't get tired.
The tornado then drifted into the surrounding areas, destroying everything in its path.
At this time he began to approach the man, who was still not recovering from his wounds.
"I see what you're trying to do.... They are truly impressive creatures. Despite being the first time they've seen a tornado, they made a quick hypothesis of what it can do, and planned something to defend themselves.... Truly, they are amazing. Due to the divine wounds my body received, I won't be able to survive Grand Tornado's power.... Heh, not bad though... To perish by these beings... Although, in the end, this is all my fault, I shouldn't... I shouldn't have..."
That man, after saying that, received a full on attack from his own Grand Tornado, disintegrating from its power.
After perishing, everything calmed down. The group was under the ice for a while until they realized that everything had calmed down.... And they began to hear the birds singing.
When they came out, everything was shattered. It was a very depressing sight.... But in the skies they could see birds!
The group was surprised by this too.
They moved away from the battle site and went to a more peaceful place: a forest a few miles away.
On the way they passed by a river, which also ran through the forest, and found that there were many different colors and shapes of fish in the river.
When they reached the forest they also saw birds of all kinds and colors.
- Seriously, this reminds me of something. -said TRX.

Project Pegasus: An Airplane Crashed into Me So I've Been Reincarnated as a Skeleton
“Where am I?” The place seemed familiar yet my head ached each time I tried to remember it. “This place is kinda creepy.” Wait, what happened to the school? “There should be a plane crash around here somewhere. Also, why am I still alive?” Or maybe... This is the afterlife? “Wait. Nevermind that.” “How in the world could a plane even crash on me like that?” As I stood, I got a glimpse of my right hand touching the ground. “AHHHHHHHHH---!!!” There was no flesh. “Sh*t. What is this?! Why are my hands just bones?! Am I decomposing?! It doesn’t seem to hurt though.” Just like normal, I could feel my heart beating faster, however, as I touched my chest, I felt my fingers sliding through the intervals of my ribs; my heart was gone. “Aaaaah!” As I panicked, I heard a girl’s voice behind me. “Ahm... Suddenly, something touched my right shoulder. My body froze. Slowly, I looked at it; I saw a hand wrapped in white bandage.

8 172Necro-Merchant
What up, it is zewen senpai here, with the first translated work I am attempting. It is a translation of a Chinese online novel named "陰商" (Ying Shang, or Dark Merchant). And looking at the context the story and the multi-meaning of the character "陰," I decided to name it the Necro-Merchant instead. Written by 咸魚君 (Xianyujun) or Mr.Salty Fish in English, the story is about a kid that started selling some eerie items with his cousin, because we be like that in China. Either way, enjoy the story and have a gud day.

The Avery family were one of the few truly pureblood wizarding families left in society. They took pride in a long line of thoroughly talented witches and wizards who all bore the proud status as not only pureblood, but also Slytherins. Lucas Avery was perhaps the most prominent Avery. The boy who befriended Tom Riddle and was part of the Slug Club during his time at Hogwarts. One of the first Death Eaters, he showed tremendous loyalty towards his friend and master Lord Voldemort during his first rise to power. Not only was Lucas active in his duties, he also raised two children to carry his respect into the next generation. One of his children did this with great dignity and honour... Whilst the other did not. Esmeralda (Esme) Avery never truly fit in anywhere. No matter how hard she tried. This case of isolation is perhaps what led Esme to rebel so fearlessly against what was expected against her. Then, in her sixth year at Hogwarts, she did something extraordinary. Not only was this one last desperate escape from the traumatic woes facing her at home, it also cemented her future. One fateful evening would lead Esme not only on a path of discovery but also fear and heartache. Are there any other kind of stories during Voldemort's first rise to power?
