《Guardians : Awakening of Athene》Chapter 14: Goblin Island
Advertisement
lack skies, ominous clouds. Heavy rain poured as Eric walks out holding Lancelot in his hands. They ship destroyed, unable to move anymore. They step onto the small island. With no one in sight and no way back, he decides to explore the island to see if anyone is here.
The violent wind charges at them as they continue their pathway towards into the forest. White fog impairing their visions, as Lancelot uses his senses to guide the way.
They continued to explore the forest, only to find small bugs flying around. No able to see an escape, they aimlessly walked forward into the mist.
"Lets rest for a bit, it doesn't look like we are getting anyway." Eric lays his back against a small tree.
"I have been wondering, why don't you have an iBracelet". The rabbit's small voice reaches Eric as he continues to chew this carrot.
"I have a smartwatch instead. These things are really just up to preference and your magic affinity." Eric taps his smartwatch on his left wrist, a hologram appeared floating in the air.
"They are all essentially the same, but there are small differences. You see, the bracelet is primarily used for storage and communication, therefore it has the most amount of space. While the watch is used for convenience, with different functions but limited storage. It comes in lots of shapes and sizes, I mean Kiva uses a smartphone..." Eric explains to Lancelot in a careless tone.
"I have been wondering as well, how do you always have that carrot?" Eric massages his neck and shoulders.
Lancelot stopped his chewing and threw the orange carrot on to the ground. He then pulls out another one as if he was creating a carrot from nothing. "This is my power! Well one of them at least!" He laughed as he explains proudly. "Sir Lancelot's power knows no beyond!" He smiles brightly at Eric.

As Eric is about to laugh from this rabbit, a sudden arrow scratches his hair hitting the tree behind him. Immediately, Eric grabbed the Lancelot and ran into the mist without a second thought.
The silent forest isn't voiceless anymore, massive sounds of small footsteps marching towards Eric and the rabbit. The disgusted squeaky voice echoes throughout the trees. Surrounding Eric as he becomes trapped by the ominous mist.
Green small ugly creatures came around him as if they were waiting for this human. Some carried bows, some carried blunt sticks and others with small knives.
"Goblins." Eric feared. His careless eyes became serious. His tone became heavy. Surrounded by a dozen goblins with Lancelot in his hands.
"Rabbit, hold tight." The white rabbit climbs on to his shoulders. Eric cracks his knuckles, placing his right hand on his smartwatch. A blue hologram of a blade handle appears in front of him as he pulls it out from his watch. He triggers a small green gem on its handle. Numbers of binary data appears as it converts itself into a silver short sword.
"I like my food to be high-classed. We aren't eating these ugly creatures." His voice directed to the rabbit as if he was making a joke. Eric charges forward into the small army of green goblins. Killing the ranges one first, then moving on the rest. Blood spatter as a massive footstep is heard. The creature appeared in his vision, after killing a dozen goblins. The beast is seeking revenge.
Eric charges forward, striking the monster with his blade.
- Somewhere on Goblin Island -
Its been a while since these two girls have landed on this island. With Sarah's flames and Hana's light, the fog wasn't much of a problem for them. The problem is... the number of goblins chasing them was endless.

"Dammit, these pests are annoying!" Sarah cuts goblins in half as she continues to run with Hana.
Hana rosed her staff and chanted - Flash -
The yellow gem on her staff emits a bright strong clour blinding the goblins.
"They are attracted to female's natural fragrance!" Hana shouted.
They continued to run from the endless army of goblins.
The green ugly creatures jumped from the trees, with their disgusting laughs, they continued to block off Sarah and Hana's paths.
"I am tired of running! Let's just kill them!" Sarah rosed her katana. Fires ignited the blade. Her face grins. "I can't stand ugly beasts." She declared.
"Sarah stop! You won't have enough mana afterwards!" Hana shouted in a hurried, trying to prevent her from using too much mana. But it was too late.
She stabs the blade into the ground. - Fireland Combustion -
The earth shook, fires burning the grass, terrorizing the wild forest. The wildfire spread across the land, igniting everything within their radius. Dead ashes of goblins breezed with the winds as Sarah falls on her knee. The extreme heat burns the mist into nothing-less as the area has become lifeless with no plants nor goblins.
The path opened up, leading them right out of the forest. Hana supporting Sarah in order for them both to walk. They arrived at the beachside, nearby the violent storms, surrounded with the blood of the dead sharks.
Only to see, a male with burnt clothing, blood all over his body with broken glasses and a small white rabbit on his shoulder running against them. He passes through them as if he didn't see them, only shouting them to run.
Speechless as they could be, seeing Eric like this. They focused their attention on the direction he was coming from. Only to see a gigantic three meters human-roid beast. With horns on this head charging towards them. His dark green skin became more visible, the rampaging red eyes and its nasty growl fears the wild. The monster swings his bone-made clubs aimlessly as Sarah and Hana decided to run as well.
"I think we found it. The Unspoken Ogre." Hana explains as the group tries to run from the massive demon.

A-Live AI
The year is 2247. For almost two hundred years Sentient AI research has been banned. Everyone knew this, and yet no one has ever given up on finding the perfect setup for it. Restricted AI are rare, but possible to get ahold of if you have the money and the clout to get through the law for it. Especially when it deals with the military. Alfred Homis is an engineer and has spent the last three years working for the United Terran Military's Research and Exploration Department. Specifically to help build a 'shackled' AI who's prime directive was to explore potentially habitable worlds. Worlds that are far cheaper to colonize and add to the United Terran Directorate's fold than terraforming. During the AI's maiden voyage things go horribly wrong, taking Alfred Homis along for the ride. Thrown into a parallel universe where the laws of physics are just a little messed up, Alfred finds himself trapped inside the very machine he'd helped to build. Add magic, hostile fantasy creatures, and two different pantheons of 'Gods' to the mix and things get even more complicated. Oh, and an invasion between universes to boot. But that's just all in a days work though for Alfred, the AI Lord. Authors Note: Hi guys! Long time no see. And yes, I know that's all on me. But I blame life for that. Anyway, this is my new work, and I hope you guys enjoy it! The chapters are a little shorter than I'd previously posted in my other stories, but I cannot say that I have the same amount of time or energy to write them like that anymore. Sorry about that. Still, some warnings: There is cursing in this story. I am not going to edit it out. There will be sexual content later. Blood, gore and cruel depictions are all planned. If that isn't your thing, I'd suggest you turn back now. There is also my dry, and often not-so-funny sense of humor. And oh, it's all in first person gain. Haha. I just tend to write better that way. If none of that bothers you, then enjoy the read! Feel free to comment, point out mistakes, or make suggestions! Reviews are nice too, but please lay off the criticism until the story gets good and going. Thank you. Note 1: Some edits to the synopsis.

A Standard Model of Magic
The world ended, and magic came back. The part our parents didn't expect, was for Science to break on reentry. Twenty years after the apocalypse, with our nations dismantled and hidden continents unearthed, a new generation has grown up in the wreckage of 21st century civilization. For us, the fantastic is at our doorstep and we have had no choice but to fight back. Meanwhile, the laws of nature bend and break at the whims of immortal gods, all of which are now dead and none of which are content to stay that way. But we cannot afford to give up. We are the stewards of a rewritten century, in which a little luck and a whole lot of magic might make anything possible – maybe even a world better than the one we lost. A Standard Model of Magic is a complete overhaul of my old story A Storm in the Fall. I'm afraid I was unhappy with the LitRPG elements, which I don't mind reading, but I apparently loath writing. Sorry. Once I'd made the choice to decouple the story from the OF that inspired it and reconfigure the magic system to my satisfaction, little of the original plotline survived. I will be salvaging most of my original characters, and I will keep some elements which are endemic to the genre, but that is all. I don't have an update schedule which I can commit to yet, but I will try to maintain a weekly pace.(This is currently RoyalRoad exclusive, since I'm lazy. If you find it posted elsewhere, it wasn't me and it wasn't with permission) If you're interested, I've set up a discord.
