《Way of the mage?》Ch-25 more money
Advertisement
Tom was quite surprised when he saw Austin in the shop but he was happy that he will be able to teach him a lesson. The mage gave him some fright but later as they were sent out Tom was really very happy. ‘I will break his all limbs today.’ But just as they got out Austin started sprinting towards a narrow street. After running for a while Austin stopped in front of dead end in narrow alley and turned back.“ nowhere to run now ehh rat?” “Idiots. Does my face look like I am scared? I was just following bosses order, far from shop remember? And why do you people fall for the same trick twice?” Austin’s tone changed . But those 3 were too angry to notice such details. They became little vigilant after listening to Austin’s words and looked on top of the building if something was going to fall on there head again but finding nothing only made them more angry. “ Kill that brat” Shouted Tom. Larry and Dem ran forward with Tom following them from behind and the clash took place. Larry got a front kick to his chest and flew backward obstructing Dem and both fell down. Tom was surprised by the burst of power displayed by that tiny body but Larry was not so lucky. Tom somehow avoided it by clinging to wall but when he turned his head Austin was flying With knee aimed straight at his face. It was not enough to put them down of course so rain of punches and kicks were fairly distributed between the three. After few minutes three of them were naked again lying around in pain. With broken nose swollen hands and face planted in mud, bruises all over there body It was quite miserable scene. Austin was quiet happy with the exercise he was able to do and money he earned today. He was about to kill them cause they were going to do the same but changed his thoughts they were his living breathing money trees why would he cut them off unless he was brain dead?what could anyone expect Austin used to be member of underworld after all he has seen a lot of bloodshed, fought many, killed many only difference was because of his physic which was that of a child . He was E ranked as those 3 after activation of his core, his body was small and seem weak then them still he would win in 1vs1 but 3 Vs 1 was different if he didn’t have experience of fighting from previous life and his environment he chose while luring them were to his advantage. Narrow place didn’t let them move freely while Austin with small strong body was like fish in water. Only problem was Austin’s stamina was not very good and those 3 could endure a lot so Austin had to beat them extra nicely.“Ahem.. My precious friends please don’t forget me next time ok? Wear nice cloths and carry some more money too when you visit me. And don’t roam around in those underwear have some shame you are all grown ups after all. let’s meet again.” Three men’s lying on the floor couldn’t even respond due to pain. They were still in trance trying to understand what just happened. They couldn’t land even a single hit on the kid no matter how they tried to hit him, sometimes hit connected but all the power was lost or redirected elsewhere with a surprise counter attack. They finally noticed they had to learn that he was not someone they should be messing with so all they could do was play dead and wait for the Storm to pass. 3 Adults lying around in underwear in front of 14 years old kid. It was very bizarre scene. Shaking his head he erased the thought and happily counted all spoils 14 silver and 38 bronze and some cloths no weapons Except a knife. ‘ I have 2 knifes now. Dual wielding knife would be cool but I was more proficient with guns than knife so can’t trade looking cool for a head.’ He still decided to keep the knife for emergency. And why so much money? They were visiting a potion shop and maybe also on there way to buy equipment who cares. Austin decided to sell those cloths for few coins.He took a turn But he saw an old man who was sleeping in the alley with bottle in one hand with dirty cloths mostly inner garments. Looking closely he was a dwarf With black beard. Austin had earned a lot so he decided to be little generous.“ Hey old man wake up do you want some cloths? If they don’t fit you, you can sell them and get some money.” The old man was actually a dwarf. He woke up looking around with confused look pasted on his face . Austin repeated his questions again but got scolded instead.“shut up kid do you think I am dumb and do I look like a beggar to you?” Strange question.. Austin looked at him again from various angle and nodded silently he wanted to get angry but the eyes of dwarf and his voice definitely didn’t belong to a beggar who passes each day begging for scraps. Noticing kids gaze he looked at himself wearing only inner garments with mud all around from sleeping in the dirt. “fuck how did this happen to me? Where am I?”Austin couldn’t help but roll his eyes. ‘same old dialogue now he will ask the same profound question.. who am I?’

8 65Berserker- Crank Wars
Nearly 500 years have passed since the so-called apocalypse where souls dominated their control over the human vessels and grew into fierce monsters. A small frail kid saved humanity from getting wiped out of the face of the earth through his strangely powerful and unique techniques and taught them to the humans that followed him. He became a legend and humans developed special powers called cranks from his teachings. Humans couldn't procreate anymore. A very few thousands of last generation humans that remained or stayed alive by becaming crankers now constitutes the only humanity left on the planet. And they should continue to keep levelling up their cranks by slaying monsters and siphoning their souls to stay immortal and most of them tend to form teams to increase their odds. Everything was wrist-slittingly boring like that until one of those teams went ahead and mistakenly awakened the legend kid from his deep, and sound slumber. --------- One Chapter @Everyday -------------------- Unfortunately, I don't own the cover. I found it on Pinterest. And edited it a little.

8 64The Fracture
It was a normal day for the inhabitants of ERT-5901, more commonly known by the populace as Earth. A beautiful planet with lush resources and fertile land, well at one point anyways. Children were born, the elderly died, and Man was as corrupt as ever. But hey, what can you do about that? Can’t change human nature… But that's not the point. Basically the planet was peaceful, for the most part. Certainly they were better off than the species on FTL-3470… We don’t talk about them. Better to leave that book unopened. Anyways, that was all until January 5th of the year 2025. When the sky broke. Fractured. Stunning ocean blue cracks were spotted in the sky all over the planet. A spiders web of cracks and crevices littered the blue skies, tearing all that global peace to shreds. All while Wyatt Walker, a sad example of a human being, was black out drunk in a bar somewhere in LA. This is a post-apocalyptic, portal isekai, high fantasy kind of story set on our very own green Earth! The world has fractured, broken. The inhabitants of ERT-5901 are in for quite the quick and dramatic change in their way of life. Murder, theft, and death have become the norm. Survival of the fittest to the extreme. If you can’t keep up, then good luck playing the game. Hello, Kaiser here! I am the author of this lovely story and I would just like to put a few disclaimers down here. First, English is, in fact, my first language. This by no means I will have perfect grammar and there are bound to be spelling mistakes (please forgive me) and places where I accidentally put plot holes. If you find anything, I would appreciate it if you could let me know so I can fix / change it. I also welcome any constructive criticism or opinions you might have about the story (doesn’t always mean I will change something). Second, I am by no means a professional writer here. Just a confused student who wanted to write something. So, uh, here's my story? Third, if you can’t handle any of the following I recommend you find a different story as I will by no means change any of these topics. [Gore, Profanity, Twisted themes, Dark scenes, and Death] If you’re a sensitive person or a queasy person I would highly recommend a different story. Fourth, I would like to write with freedom so I will by no means be lenient with my writing. I intend to write without mercy. Characters will die, bad things will happen, blood will be spilled, and humans will continue to be humans. I would like to write things as realistically as possible while still having that dash of fantasy. Not everything will be all dark and gloom, there will be happy and funny moments mixed! (Hopefully, not a lot of edge) Enjoy! ッ
