《The Prophecy Of The Four Kings》Chapter 62
Advertisement
Amon pushed the pieces of rubble from on top of him, emerging from the pile of rubble his body had created from being thrown by Aluric, who as he looked up and fixed his gaze upon had just thrown yumi into another building,
“really her too”, Amon muttered to himself, as he felt the lingering pain in his back, from the impact he just made,
“that is going to hurt, tomorrow if we live”, he said to himself,
Amon tensed his leg muscles as he reared back, and then shot himself forward in a quick burst of speed, at his brother, Aluric barely glancing in Amon’s direction, pivoted his body throwing his hands up to his chest in a fit of desperation, blocking Amon’s kick, Aluric feeling the force from the kick pulling his body away from his brother, his feet sliding across the stony surface, that made stopping himself so much harder because of the falling rain, causing him to slide a few feet back,
Aluric dropped his hands, only to be met with the oncoming fist of his brother, As he saw this he felt Yumi’s Natural blessing take effect, slowing the movement of his opponent significantly, A devilish smile peeled its way across Aluric’s face, as he shifted his body sideways, allowing the punch to freely pass him, he turned to see another one coming seeming the same sluggish way as the first one,
Amon attacked his little brother feverishly, throwing one attack after the other, only for all of them to be effortlessly and flawlessly dodged by Aluric,, only to be met by aluric twisting his body as he spun and landed with an attack of his own, as Aluric’s elbow cleanly connected to Amon’s jaw, the force of the impact knocking his head sideways, not discouraged by this, Amon shrugged off the blow and tried to strike again, with the same result, as Aluric once more landed an attack, this time punching him straight in his face, knocking his head back this time, as Amon again ignored the pain from the attack, trying to strike his younger brother once more,
As Aluric pulled back his hand to strike Amon again, yumi pulled herself from the rubble, and without a moments hesitation, launched herself back into the fray, as she sped towards Aluric, landing a ferocious kick to his rib cage, but as she once again looks down at the moment of impact, she is met with Aluric’s hand,the force of the attack propelling him into a building that was standing next to him, as the red brick stone wall crumbled, with Aluric's body penetrating it, leaving the inside exposed, yumi lands next to Amon, who is panting trying to catch his breath, wiping away, the stream of blood, currently escaping his nose,

“you okay ?”, Yumi asked amon,
“yup, just a bit…... pissed off, but other….. than that just fine”, he exclaimed, catching his breath in between words,
Soon after Aluric, emerged, pushing a slab of the red brick off of his body, the red dust from the bricks settling onto his white and gold trench coat, he stood up fixing his stater onto the two people who opposed him, the two people who were once the closest people to him,
“i noticed his eyes”, Amon pointed out, as he gestured towards yumi’s eyes,
“ yeah, it happened right after he threw you into that building”, yumi's said pointing to one of the many partially destroyed residences of the dracht capital,
“this is going to be a pain to deal with”, Amon complained, holding the back of his head, his next arm reaching across his hip unsheathing his sword,
“yup so lets get going”, Yumi states, darting off towards Aluric once more,
yumi closes in to Aluric, unleashing a fury of attacks, punches, kicks, elbows, more punches and kicks, knees, All blocked or dodged by Aluric, however the shear volume of Yumi’s attacks push him back, felling the cold, wet hard texture of stone on his back, Aluric’s eyes widen, coming to the realization that he has been backed into a corner, As yumi attacks once more Aluric barely manages, by hair’s width to pull his head out of the way, as yumi’s attack knocks off the wall behind him, as the come to a stand still, Yumi, looks up, for the first time in the fight they lock eyes fully, the rain held at bay by the damaged rooftop over head,
“you didn’t pull your punch just now, that would've really hurt”, Aluric states,
Yumi looked deep into Aluric’s eyes, remaining silent,
“you made a rookie mistake, you tried to outdo me with my own powers, when I’m well aware of the weaknesses it possess”, Yumi finally answered,
“not going to acknowledge my first comment, oh well, what would those weaknesses be yumi”, Aluric answered,
“you focused to much on me”, Yumi retorted, jumping backwards out of the way, as Amon ran under her, with his sword drawn, mid attack already, as the purple hilted blade raced towards Aluric’s abdomen, the yellow of Aluric’s eyes flickered briefly, as the brightness of them intensified, as the sword completed it’s attack, it cleaved nothing but air, the force and momentum causing Amon to begin to spin, as Aluric vaulted himself over the blade, he looked down at his brother, flipping in the air and using the blade he stretched out his hand and propelled himself even higher in the air,

Amon felt his body spinning with the momentum of the strike, looking at his brother in the air, amon made the hasty decision, letting go of his sword mid swing as it flew off int the stone wall, as he completed his spin, one of his feet lifting off of the ground unbalancing him, he flung his arm outwards towards his brother, as a small sharp black projectile, launched itself out of his sleeve, whistling through the air making a sharp cutting sound, it only seemed like a blur to Amon, but Aluric perceived it in its entirety, a hidden dagger was now flying towards him and he had nowhere to go, as it inched closer and closer by the second, it was heading straight for his eye, quickly he threw up his hands blocking the blade from entering his eye, he felt a sharp piercing pain run through the flesh on his arm,
his eyes now closed he could feel himself free falling, as it soon came to a sudden stop, and he the ground beneath his feet, he slowly opened his eyes, moving his hand away from them, feeling the the slight sting and the cool blade in his arm with every movement, he didn’t have the slightest second of reprieve, as he saw Yumi directly next to him, as he leg connected to his abdomen, he could feel his breath rush through his lungs and out through his mouth, as the force from her attack he could feel pushing him in the direction away from her, as his feet left the ground slightly, as he glanced in the direction he was going, he saw his brother,
Aluric instinctively threw his hand to his side to protect himself, from the attack he was sure to land there,but the attack never came, until, he felt a strong force push his jaw up to the sky, Amon had avoided the obvious attack, and landed an uppercut, shortly after he felt it yet again, as Aluric felt his feet climb off of the ground, and then he felt another strong force this time pushing him in his stomach, as he felt his body getting catapulted into the air,
Yumi sprinted towards one of the buildings that were still standing, as she neared it, she jumped into the air as one of her feet found footing on the buildings side shortly after, as she propelled herself once more towards the building adjacent to that, as she did so repeatedly, climbing into the air, as Aluric’s limp body flew upwards from the kick he just received from Amon, and with one last kick she jumped up and directly above amon, as she spun hersellf rapidly, placing her leg outwards as she reached the peak of her jump and gravity began pulling her towards Aluric, As Aluric opened his eyes he saw, yumi’s leg rocketing towards him,
His eyes widened with panic, as things seemed to be moving a bit faster than before, trying to think quickly his eyes darted around his body, as the fixated on the knife stuck in his arm, reaching for it and pulling it out, just as Yumi’s kick connected with him, for the briefest of moments time slows it self again, as Aluric, swipes his hand at Yumi releasing the blade in his hand, as it flies towards yumi, striking her

Sorcery in Boston
The timid daughter of some of the greatest spellcasters ever to have lived has found herself in another world, courtesy of magic gone awry. In Boston, Massachusetts, in the year 1935, she finds some kind souls in a hard era. In the heart of the Great Depression, as war looms around the corner, she seeks to find her place, and must come to terms with both who she is and what she truly desires. Author's Notes: Release Note: I recently realized what the hold up is. My current mental state is not compatible with the planned ending. If I wrote the ending according to what currently feels right, it will be a wretched, cruel ending that feels monstrously unfair and invalidates the work of the various characters... because that's how my life feels at the moment. The planned ending is coming out hollow and awkward, no matter how I write it, and so I've been bashing my head. I will finish it, once I manage to either brute force something decent out, or once my head gets screwed on straight. Audience: This story is not for young children - it contains some profanity, sexual content, violence, gore, and significant adult themes. Most of these are handled delicately enough not to upset teens or adults (hopefully), hence the lack of relevant tags, but it is nonetheless unsuitable for youth. It's fairly slow paced, and focused on the development of very human, very flawed individuals. Length / Completion Estimates: The outline currently involves two books. Book 1 is expected to be done with Chapter 43. It'll probably be completely finished by sometime in March of this year. I expect to move on to the far-more-lighthearted Of Gods and Dungeons (currently in progress / on hiatus). Afterwards, I may decide to redo Book 1, or write Book 2, or actually start sharing the story most dear to me, that I've been working on for several years now. Draft 1: Please be aware that this is first draft material. I do intend to come back to do a second draft after the story is complete. If anyone notices any issues whatsoever with the story, please let me know (pm, etc) so that I can improve the second draft. Writer's Pledge: I've taken the Writer's Pledge, meaning I'm commiting to completing this story. I'm a proud member of WriTE, a group dedicated to finishing stories. It will be done! Behind the Scenes notes: This picture was commissioned from an inked artist by the name of DanP. Up until the time of the protagonist's arrival, history has proceeded as before. Some places and characters have been borrowed from wikipedia entries of interesting figures from the time. I will make note in the chapter comments when such things come up. Naturally, I've taken a great deal of liberty with them. In interest of respecting individuals, I've either attempted to portray them as accurately as possible, or modified them sufficiently enough that they're simply an inspiration, instead of a real portrayal. I've attempted to be as accurate to the era as possible, but I'm not a historian. If you're aware of inaccuracies, please, bring them to my attention so that I can correct them.
8 115I was Born the Unloved Twin
You've probably heard this sort of story before. Once upon a time, blah blah blah a boy and a girl fell love and everything was beautiful and perfect, except for this thing called life getting in their way. He was this cool foreign prince and she was basically perfect. Really it's a very boring run of the mill story. I'll even spoil it for you, they kill the villainess at the end. Not the type of story I'd read personally. So where do I fit into this?Apparently I'm her older twin sister and the very very lucky fiance to the foreign prince. You know, the dead villainess? Sucks I know. Now I get to do it all over again from the beginning.Curse my life ------ So you're somewhat interested in what this thing is about and looking to see if it's even worth reading? Let's get the worst of it out of the way first: This is a boring story, very tedious, mundane and downright just boring. It's too slow, the characters are too confusing & make possibly retarded choices. It's an isekai/reborn type Slice of Life novel that plays on the villainess noble girl trope but the MC gets no OP cheats, no magical powers, not even some satisfying face slapping or such self-fulfillment fantasy. Wow, I'm doing a terrible job advertising this thing. If you're somehow still interested, if you were ever interested how an average modern person, reborn with all their host's memories, could live out their life in this situation, mending personal relationships one step at a time, or wondered what happened in between all the time skips in other novels, maybe give Unloved Twin a try. This is an awkward novel, the pacing is slow, and there is no time skips. For some reason still, I really love this little story I'm making. Talk to me on: https://discord.gg/ARkSMFPbew

ON PAUSE: FURTHER INFORMATION BELOW In a world where zombies are common and everything is evolving to acclimate with radiation, our Main Character has a special trait about him that helps him acclimate and evolve with the harsh conditions as well. But where will that lead him, and will that be enough? Take a look into my mind for what I like to consider "The Perfect Specimen" Original posting can be found at https://www.webnovel.com/book/11219113306294805/The-Perfect-Specimen ------------------------------------------------ It's my first novel and I am writing here to just get some feedback. Please don't hold back and give me everything you got. I'll take mindless rants and very constructive good criticism. I just appreciate the fact that you took the time to read and review if you did! Further update. This novel is now on pause. I have been taking everything in from the experience of writing this novel, both positive and negative feedback. I will revisit this novel in the future after I get a more concise picture of what direction to take it in. In the meantime, I am going to be writing another novel on my own time and after I finish it, I will begin the daily upload process. After I finish, I will come back and revise this story on my own time and re-post it after fixing everything I want to fix. Thank you all so much for reading, I will be back with this and more stories in the future. Until then, be on the lookout for me! :)
8 309Tales and Legends of Tamriel : Twin moons
The continent of Tamriel is a unique place where many races live together. Humans, elves, orcs, lizardmen... they are many to populate this mythical continent. But of all the peoples, the khajiits are undoubtedly the strangest and the most curious of all. This race of cat-people lives in the warm and exotic province of Elsweyr. Under the benevolent gaze of the moons, the Khajiits live as they have for millennia. To our human eyes, their culture would be strange and bizarre, but they don't care. Princess Shazira, daughter of the khan Razirr'Ri, has lived locked up and cut off from the world since she was a child. She is said to be fragile and sickly by nature, but she knows perfectly well that it is all a lie. Curious and adventurous by nature, the princess does not hesitate to run away at the slightest opportunity to discover a little more of this vast world that fascinates her so much and from which she is kept away. It is during one of her many escapades that she crosses by chance a young human mercenary freshly arrived in Elsweyr, Alberic, who pays the price of this meeting. Unbeknownst to Shazira, forces are at work in the shadows as the young khajiit is the object of an ancient prophecy made to her father before she was even born. Strange events soon strike the family of Lord Razirr'Ri and he decides to take his daughter away to hide her and put her in a safe place. For the first time in her life, Princess Shazira leaves the capital. At first euphoric at the idea of traveling, she soon discovers that the evil that has awakened in the shadows is now after her...

I am not one of the most faithfull writers, so it may take some time between chapters. And the length of each chapter will vary depending on the choices and outcomes. Honestly, the space between each chapter may vary until I get a handel of things. At minimum, I'll always wait a day to let the votes tricle in. Note: While I will have poles, I hope people can voice what options I dont put out for some reason that seam apropriate. Or just generally talk in the comment section
