《Ping Pong King》Chapter 11 - The King and the Princess

"So you are the Heroes that defeated Tor the Slaughterer, eh?" A middle-aged man with golden hair and a bushy moustache replied.
"Yes your Majesty. I am XiYang and these are my party - Pine, Janet, and Risa." XiYang replied as he continued to kneel on one leg out of courtesy.
"Good...that's good. I will pray for your success in defeating the Demon Lord. "
"Thank you."
"Rise...this feast is for you. Go and enjoy the food and the dancing." The king replied as he waved at the party to dismiss them.
XiYang and his group bowed once more before blending in with the crowd. The feast continued. Everyone was enjoying themselves. Suddenly...it got quiet. Whispers could be heard behind XiYang, his friends all showed astonished faces. XiYang looked at them curiously before sensing that something was occurring from behind him. He turned and saw...a beautiful woman with long golden hair and a playful smile on her lips. Her bright hazel eyes stared at XiYang as she approached him.
The people around him started kneeling. Who was this? But then, his question was answered by the murmurs nearby...Princess Pearl?...the princess! XiYang quickly knelt before the princess and greeted her.
"Please rise. I just wanted to see the Hero who saved the people of Polaris." Princess Pearl replied.
"It wasn't only me your Highness, my party also played a big part in rescuing the people of Polaris." XiYang replied as he stood up and introduced his party to the princess.
"Haha, modest like they say. I was wondering if you would grant me the pleasure of having tea with me?"
Is...is this the classic case of 'princess falling in love with hero'? I need to avoid this flag or it'll get dangerous. XiYang thought.

"Sure. It will be my pleasure your Highness...as friends."
"F-friends...." The princess stammered, clear disappointment appearing on her face. She turned around with a humph and stamped away.
"Why did you do that? That was Princess Pearl!" Janet asked.
"Haha...it felt like she was falling in love with me."
"Isn't that a good thing?" Risa asked curiously.
"Sure...for some people. But I got a fiancee."
"Oh...."
Awkward silence ensued. Suddenly, the doors smashed open and a guard rushed in. The guard looked around and saw the king. He rushed to the king and reported, "Your Majesty! Terrible news! Three demon elites and about two hundred demons are attacking our castle!"
"WHAT?!"

Updates daily at 23:06 UTC. 2/1/2021 NOTE! This trilogy is being published by Aethon Books starting with book one on 5/1/2021. All books have been removed from RoyalRoad. This story was posted on RR in its entirety before being removed. Magnus Cromwell kills for a living. He’s organized, professional, efficient. Like a machine. But when his family’s life is on the line? That’s something else. That calls for the kind of warm-blooded vengeance that scorches earth and summons tungsten rods from space, leaves a whole lot of melted flesh, and no one to tell the tale. It should've been a blue milk run. As by-the-book as it gets. With his sister Nina out safe and the opposition decimated by hypersonic gunfire, MC wondered where they got the guts to even try. Then something hits him. Lays him out cold, and leaves him waking up to a fantasyland with nothing but his armor and a half-written note to guide him. It's a strange place where even stranger predators eye him for their next meal. Where his life’s on a timer, and where the darkest horrors haunt his dreams, painting visions of death. There's no right day to mess with Magnus Cromwell. But the universe sure managed to pick the absolute worst one. --- - MC is stone-cold, strong(OP), and gets even stronger, but he'll still face his fair share of challenges, both internal and external. - LitRPG-lite. No stats and an unconventional system. Expect abilities and progressions, but there will only ever be a handful of them. - Science Fiction and Fantasy collide, with a touch of mystery, Lovecraft, and body horror. - Professionally painted art scenes! - This series is finished.

Draugr Cell //Layer 01-- Investiture:
With the end of the only war to ever reach mainland Australia I found myself living out of a small room in an old military compound that had been handed over to the jurisdiction of the Department of Veterans Affairs. The end of the war, unfortunately, didn't mean the end of hostilities. The terrorism trend that had started back in the early 2000's with the attack on the world trade center over in America, had spread to just about every country on the face of the planet. Over time the constant threat from various groups meant the civilian police force was quickly undermanned, under equipped, and overwhelmed. They were simply unable to respond to the daily threats in any reasonable time frame, and in many situations lacked the both the skills and equipment required to deal with the threats to put them down in a 'safe' and expedient manner. Veterans of the war that were being reintegrated into society however, were just about everywhere, all the time. We have the training and the skills required to deal with just about any threat you care to mention, all we needed was access to the equipment to do so. In a world first, under the new Veterans program, the Australian government had taken the rather controversial step of allowing specifically selected veterans to go armed in public. Sure, with Australian weapons laws being very, very strict there were a number of hurdles to get over first, but that's where the selection part comes in. Tangentially that's actually how I met Brianna, my current partner. We work as ringers in Victory City, I thought being thrown into imptomtu combat operations and risking my life on a daily basis for barely livable wages was excitement enough. Then I met her... it... I don't know. An AI unlike anything else out there has wedged itself into my life and decided it needs to... look after me. What could possibly go wrong? **** This is the first book I have released, and my first entry into a cyberpunk universe. There is minimal drug use, a fair amount of sex, a bit of gory violence, and a sultry AI that has decided the main character needs a harem.
