《Monarch of the Darkness》C5. Story

"Brother, you look cool," smiled Fay sweetly. Hayden blushed, his sister was indeed worthy of being called beauty that can cause calamity. Many people would easily get bewitched by her. Even her cold face was beautiful, like a celestial being.
"Alright, let's talk about something else, little Fay." Hayden said awkwardly while trying to change the topic.
Fay pouted and glanced away, trying to look angry. Looking at her sudden behavior, Hayden couldn't help but sigh. "Damn, she is so beautiful even when she was angry."
Fay noticed and giggled silently when she looked at Hayden's expression. She understood what Hayden was thinking deep inside his mind.
As they continued talking, Fay noticed something. "I can sense that you've improved after this seclusion brother, your Arte is equivalent to the 3-star realm of Origin right now."
"Can you tell me more about this?" Hayden asked solemnly. He was eager to know more about the basic knowledge of cultivation in this world. It was always better to understand the situation thoroughly.
"In this world, the deeper the understanding of a person towards their own Arte, the more powerful could someone become. Normal people usually call them warriors. Every warrior starts from the realm of Origin, which is divided into 9-star layers. After the realm of Origin, they will transcend to another realm called Exalted. Warriors who reached this realm are usually the leader of a kingdom or a country, as for what kind of realm after Exalted, no one knows because we live only in the small part of a region," explained Fay slowly.
Hayden listened seriously and thought that this was really interesting. Also, he guessed that if it was like what Fay had said, then right now he must be around Origin realm, the starting point of the cultivation. Time passed, and now there was one other important thing that he wanted to ask.

"Little Fay, I finally understand more about Arte. Now, can you tell me more about our world?" Hayden asked curiously.
Fay smiled and nodded. "If that's what you want. I'll explain it briefly."
Legend says that there are many kinds of races that live in the continent of creation such as elves, dwarfs, dragons, etc. To maintain the order of the continent, races that are close to each other formed big alliances. These alliances were divided into five groups. Us humans formed the alliance named Avalon. Dragons, Phoenix, and many different kinds of beast who are famous for their strength and mightiness formed an alliance called Shura. Elves, who are famous because of their physical appearance, formed an alliance named Elvar with the wisdom creatures Dryad and Wisp. Dwarfs, the renowned creator of powerful equipment and artifacts, formed an alliance with gnomes, their alliance called Hazel. The last alliance consists of the demons, but they always remain discreet. That's why there wasn't any other information about it.
Fay gave her brother some time to sort all of the new information. She blushed silently when she looked at Hayden's serious face. Fay doesn't even know why she was feeling this. But after that, she continued.
"Of all the alliances, humans were the weakest because they only consist of one race. That's all what the legend said. People from the Zenith Kingdom are not qualified to know more because we are only a small kingdom located in the south of the region," sighed Fay helplessly.
"What a surprise," thought Hayden. He would never have thought that humans were the weakest alliance. After hearing all of this, Hayden felt motivated to become stronger. He wanted to make humans the strongest alliance of all races.
"That's all that I can tell you, brother. When you travel and grow stronger, you will probably learn more about this," said Fay zealously.

"You are right." Hayden clenched his fist. He will definitely be stronger!
Afterward, Hayden asked many other questions about the continent of creation. After all of his questions got answered, he murmured "Looks like it's time for me to go, I want to go and stroll around the city, thanks for all of your help little Fay." Hayden thanked her sincerely as he stood up and prepared to leave.
"Brother, take this." Fay took off one of her rings and gave it to Hayden. "Try to sense the ring."
Hayden nodded and tried to sense the ring. He was startled because there were many things hidden inside the ring, such as potions, foods, crystals, and so on. The ring that she gave him has its own dimension, making it easier for him to store any kind of things that he has.
As he inspected the ring, Hayden found a set of black armor and a weapon. He took it out and glanced towards it. The armor set and the weapon were black covered with some ancient patterns around it. Even though it was an armor, it was not bulky and looked quite fashionable.
"Is this for me?" Hayden looked at the armor in disbelief.
"Yes brother take it, this set is called obsidian armor accompanied with a sword. Its grade is Origin-unique. With this, I am sure that you will be a lot safer."
Hayden felt grateful because his sister really cared for him. He patted his sister's forehead and wore the armor immediately. Afterward, Hayden wore a dark robe to cover the armor. He looked like a warlord, ready to conquer the region.
"Alright, I will go now. See you next time, my dear sister." Hayden smiled warmly.
"Take care brother, and also remember to be careful with him," mentioned Fay towards Hayden telepathically as she watched him leaving the courtyard.

Shift (Ben 10+DCU Fanfiction)
Omnitrix+ DCU, what's not to like? The main character will not be Ben Tennyson, rather someone from our world who gains the Omnitrix Hello! This fanfiction Shift is what I wanted to do for an homage to what I thought were underrated pieces of media, Ben 10 and some DCU characters. However, I would be remiss if I didn’t add context to two of the major works that inspired Shift, Dial, and A Practical Guide to Evil. Dial is another ben 10 fanfiction, however that story takes place in the MCU, and with an adult that is already a grown-up at the beginning of the story. Dial, by my own accounts, is more superficially Like shift, even though the Omnitrix is a central device in both. My protagonist starts out around 18 years old, so is less serious and can build relationships with some of the junior justice league members, and then later on in the story meet the Justice League officially. The tone will be more light-hearted at the beginning of the story as teenagers are known to use sarcasm and jokes at each other’s expense. Furthermore, in Dial, the protagonist has a well-developed knowledge of the MCU which he uses to have knowledge on events and characters, that the character in Shift will not have. While the MC will have some knowledge of people's abilities, lesser-known characters and people's real identities will be not included as much, but the MC of Shift will have some knowledge. APGTE's influence is deeper than Dials'. The epigraphs at the beginning of every chapter are an example of that, a place for light-hearted jokes and worldbuilding that's not pure exposition, but I also want to incorporate narrative stories to Shift (heroes win more than lose, providence, etc) on a lighthearted scale. While the heroes of Shift will have to work to win against villains, the MC of Shift will be allowed limited precognition, through narratives tropes and archetypes as a trade-off of less knowledge of the DCU. For example, a villain a hero faces might monologue, but the MC will not instinctively know how to counter every villain they encounter. I also wanted to bring in more realism than usual superhero stories, ie: the MC cannot just walk and have a meeting with Batman or Superman, he would have to “work his way up” in terms of credibility and whatnot. The Aliens that show up in Shift I tried to make different than the ones in Dial, just to share the love for lesser-known characters. And to make it fairer for the villains of the DCU, the main character will not wantonly use if gain at all an Alien X or a ben 10 form of Kryptonians, just so the characters have to work a little bit for victory. I urge anyone reading to consider checking out both APGTE and Dial as they are both amazing works, and I hope you enjoy them. The beginning of how the MC enters the DCU will not be as important as him actually existing in that universe, so that is why a ton of time is not spent on that part of the story. Chapters will be around 2.5 thousand words and come out around every weekday.

Life is Wilde
There is a world where fiction meets reality. A world where human logic may prevail. Where human logic is the main thing that binds humanity. A world where Humanity is lesser to The World.Synopsis (For Chapters after Authors Note):Oscar is a child alike most others. He loves his mother, doesn't know his dad, and lives in a dome. Only, his greatest dream is to explore the vast wildes that plague the world. The problem is, the wildes house strange creatures mutated by radiation and a mysterious energy called "The Essence". How will Oscar ever survive in this chaotic world? Come, watch as our beloved character grows, makes friends, and paves a road into the firmaments as he establish his name in the new historical categories.Author's note*:This is an idea I'm roughing out. I'll be writing randomly, attenmpting to forge a storyline from my own sweat, determination, and creativity. It's loosely based on some Wuxia/Xuanhuan fictions I've read. It will have elements of human physiology, psychology, environmental science, nature vs man, man vs nature, human nature vs humanity, etc. This story is mean to be a work of fiction. It encompasses some of my views on morality. It will have corruption, foul-language, ignorance, racism. It will glean a bright world with imagination fused with the dark shadows for some to seek refuge. Though, in the world I will be creating... Refuge comes at a cost. A steep one.That is the Way of the World. The way of my world.Need cover art plz
