By mid afternoon I found myself right outside the village gate. I am hot, sweaty, tired, but relieved that i finally made it back.
On my way to town I came across a band of twenty goblins all four feet tall and spears in their hands. Right before I came they had killed a small party of players that were stupid enough to attack them head on.
Using a flash spell I blinded the band of monsters and was easily able to assassinate them one at a time.Swiftly and efficiently I slit each one of their necs.
As I drew closer to the village the mobs got weaker but increased greatly in number. I fought my way through to the gate one shoting each of the creatures.
I walked up to the Northern gate of the village and gave it three quick knocks. “thump thump, thump” There was no reply.
Something is wrong. In a small village like this there should still be at least two guards protecting the gate. There is no one here.
Finally I decide to climb the gate. I back up 20 meters and start sprinting towards the gate. Getting three feet from it I launch myself in the air in an attempt to reach a peice of wood protruding from the gate.
As I take the monstrous leap the gate flew open and I find myself tumbling on the ground.

When the dust clears I spot two dead guards in front of me and twenty armed players around.
The same man that attacked at the tavern now stand before me now except somethings different. Besides of the old rags and rusted weapons they are wearing brand new iron armor and weapons. Two of them are wearing hunters attire with yew bows as well as two others are wearing magi robes and staffs. In the back their stands on man with a white robe and a scepter
In a small span of two days they have managed to get a lot stronger. Usually it would take many years to gain the power they have obtained. For the average man it may even take a lifetime.
“Hey look what the cat dragged in. I think that it is time that we paid you back for all the trouble you have caused us. Get em boys.”
They may have gotten stronger but they are still idiots.
Fifteen men charge straight at me with blades drawn. Five men stay back and prepare to give support, the archers, magi’s, and cleric.
I spring up to my feet just in time to dodge two arrows that now lie where I was sitting. I conjure two daggers and charge straight at my opponents.
Within five feet of them I disappear. Using illusion magic I am able to turn invisible and circle behind the confused men.
During this confusion I kill the two back most warriors by slitting their necks.
While turning around one of the man swings his claymore down towards me. His swing would have decapitated me if I didn’t pivot on my heel the last minute and dodge.
Using the momentum from my step I spin around and stab the man in the chest. As I look into his face I could see an evil smile on his face. He holds my blade in his chest by grabbing my arm and screams “Do it now”

Fireball x2
Before I could turn around I am hit with a great impact and heat washes over me.
When the smoke clears I am gone and left standing there is a smiling corpse burnt to a crisp.
Shit this is going be a lot harder than I thought. It seem the only way to kill them is to either slit there throat or fully decapitate them.
Taking a minute I apply a salve that we use in the circus for burns then continue my assault.
I appear behind the cleric wielding a war axe and cleave his head off before returning to my invisible state
“Come on out you bastard so I can kill you”
“Not a chance.” I appear before the leader and slash him with a giant bear claw. As I try to finish him off an arrow flies my way and I am forced to retreat back.
“Guy circle up and protect yourselves. He can’t get all of us if we are together.”
As they rush to form their defensive I am able to kill the archer that interrupted my kill.
“Come on you coward.”
I appear before them. “Ha I am not the one backed against the corner. Even twenty versus one and you can’t kill me.”
As I speak three fireballs come spiralling towards me.
I dodge the first two and slash through the last. “Is they all you got”
I charge towards the group while dodging the relentless spells and arrows heading for me. As I get closer one of the man swings his sword at me. Getting within and inch from the blade I disappear.
I dropped down pivoted off my front foot and backed faced to the men i use my momentum to back flip over him and land in the middle of their circle.
Instantly a ghost sword appears in front of each of the aggressors. Its payback time. Each of the swords starts to attack the man.Surprised all but one manages to put up their defense in time to not be killed.
As they fight the vicious onslaught that is my ghost swords they are pushed back closing the circle tighter and tighter. Unknown to them they are walking into a trap.
In the middle of the circle I finally let my presence be seen. Hand spread out wide and a smile on my face I summon my spirit weapon. “ANCIENT GREED!!!”
Around me a tornado of fifty two cards appears and rip apart the men. As the last man hit the ground I take a bow and Ancient Greed disperses.

Millennial Mage (A Slice of Life, Progression Fantasy)
The world is wild, untamed. Humanity thrives, but only in isolated, well defended cities, ever shrinking as the wilds slowly reclaim all that was taken. The most capable magic users are raised up as Mages to serve mankind, further their cause, and defend them over the course of millennia. Tala is freshly graduated from the magic academy and determined to make her own way in the world. She hopes to pay off her massive debts, quickly, but still plans on living each and every day to the fullest. Too bad the Academy left some glaring holes in her practical education. Loath to let that slow her down, and with no patience for a standard, low-paid apprenticeship (intended to fill many of those knowledge gaps), Tala strives to learn and improve as rapidly as she can on her own. Her unorthodox methods for preserving her own life allow her to take greater risks in search of profit and advancement, much to the surprise of those around her. I do hope you enjoy this tale, but let me know what you think either way! Critique, both positive and negative, is welcome. Release schedule is weekly: M-W-F Thank you for your time and for giving this story a try.

8 159Not So Bold
A store clerk wakes up one day in a body not his own. Then wakes up back in his bed, it was just a dream. Right? He soon finds himself living a duel life, bouncing between his mundane life as a shelf stuffer and a strange new one. One where he has floppy ears and itty bitty paws. Notice of Hiatus: At the moment I'm going though a bit of turbulence and won't be able to update for a while. I'm also unsure about weekly/monthly releases.

I'm still figuring out how to go about this particular endevor and thank you for your patience.
8 94Gods of the mountain
Saia has started a new life after leaving her native village and its abusive goddess. Now she spends her time fishing sea snakes and trying to forget her mistakes, but this peaceful existence is derailed when the earth trembles for the first time in centuries. Koidan, the god who is supposed to protect her new village from every danger, asks for her help to survive, shattering the illusions Saia has believed in for her entire life: the nine gods are not immortal after all, and the mountain towering on the nine villages isn't as sacred and untouchable as she thought. In exchange for answers about the gods and lessons of magic, Saia pledges to save Koidan, pursuing at the same time a secret, more pressing goal: taking revenge on the goddess that oppresses her village and getting her old life back.
