《Death Game》Chapter 3

“Hmmmm…. Your blood doesn't show any signs of poisoning nor does your body.”
I saw Jason who looked young but is actually middle aged hold a test tube filled with my blood.
“Not only that your cells are showing strange signs of vitality! Its as if they are filled with energy.”
“. “
“Quite contrary to your deadpan face.”
It seems that these few years he was living in my hideout and had made a few changes.
My hideout was supposed to be a run down place where beggars lived. But it looked more like a high-tech place full of chemicals and machines.
I seriously don't understand what he does here all day but it seems like he enjoys it.
My rundown hideout looks the same from outside but when you enter you can see a clean and neat room that is well maintained and had a television which was wall mounted.
There is a small living room and a very small kitchen. There was a underground room below which is supposed to be Jason's lab.
Supposedly Jason was living off of treating rich people. Some sicknesses could not be treated easily and Jason would treat them. His fees was very high and regular people couldn't afford it. Of course he would treat me for free.
Some people had tried capturing him but he had his ways to deal with them.
“I am going to bed.”
“Okey dokey~ don't you want dinner?”
“No…. Where is the washroom?”
“I destroyed it.”
“. “
“Haha haha don't look at me like that, I made a new one it's there on your right.”
“. “
'i'll have to take revenge one of these days.’
I showed him my middle finger before walking to my right. There were two doors.

I just opened the one that showed men.
“COUGH ! COUGH!!”
There was deep acidic and rotting smell! The toilet seemed to be yellow and wash basin looked so dirty that you would feel disgusted just looking at it. You were supposed to wash your hand here?!
“Bam!”
I closed the door and looked at him.
“. “
“Hehehe I forgot to remind you, I use the men’s washroom for my chemicals and experiments.”
Looking at his face I knew that he hadn't forgotten about reminding me.
I swear I will take revenge one day.
I turned my head and walked into the Ladies washroom, I am pretty sure that board was there just for fun. Besides which lady would come to this place.
Thankfully the ladies washroom looked pretty normal.
I went to the wash basin and washed my face.
“I AM NOT YOUR ENEMY. NEED. WORK. TOGETHER. OR . YOU .DIE .IN ONE. MONTH”
“WHO?!”
Damn it. What was this. It probably fatigue.
“NOT FATIGUE. I . Y..RR.. I..N..D”
That creepy voice broke down, I don't know what happened but i felt something ominous.
First that poison, I was sure that I had been poisoned for a long time but it somehow vanished and now this?!
I must be imagining.
“THUD!”
I punched the wall to release some of my frustration and came out of the washroom.
“What did you do in there? It sounded like you had a pretty bad stomach. You should be careful of what you eat.”
I didn't want to listen his nonsense so I just went upstairs and laid on the simple sofa and put my hands behind my head before going to sleep.
I was very tired so I just went to sleep.
Like always I didn't have a good sleep. Blood was everywhere I had a gun and was killing others like they were insects. It went on and on until I was covered with blood. It wasn't mine though, not even a drop.

Then she came back again like a ghost to haunt me. Her beautiful face that I could never forget, her angelic laugh and the best moments of my life.
'hey~ stop reading those boring books and come with me.’
She stared at me with her angelic eyes and pulled my hand.
'sure’
I would never tell no to her, not even in my dreams.
'hahaha~ come here.’
She dragged me with her while laughing and the layed down on the grass.
'come here James, lie down.’
I lied down on the grass and stared at her face.
'see upwards James.’
I looked at the sky during the night. It was beautiful. Breathtaking. The stars were sparkling everywhere and it was just perfect with her. She kept teaching me about constellations and I kept listening to her.
I was looking at the sky. It suddenly became blood red. I was back to killing again. Why? Why me?
“HWAAAAAH HUUUU HWWAAAAAH HUUUU!”
I got up suddenly.
“DAMN!”
My back was filled with sweat. I got up slowly and saw Jason in the kitchen.
“Nightmares?”
As expected he knew me well.
“You should stop thinking about the past James. Think about what you will do in the future.”
“. “
“Sigh. Me saying it won't affect you but you at least need to eat. Wanna have breakfast?”
“Sure. I'll freshen up and be back.”
I walked down the staircase and went to washroom and got out after washing my face.
While I was walking up the stairs I heard that voice again.
“YOU WILL DIE! COOPERATE AND DON'T KEEP DENYING WHAT YOU HAVE TO DO!”
This time the voice was quiet forceful but I was used to hearing it so I didn't shout back this time.
I got to the kitchen.
“What's breakfast?”
“Noodles.”
I heard sounds of frying something in the kitchen and an aroma that could wake up your appetite was oozing out from the kitchen.
“Growl”
My stomach is making noises as a result of not eating anything for two days.
“Jason.”
“Hmm?”
“I think I keep hearing voices in my head.”
“What did you say?”
“It's nothing.”
I saw the calendar on the wall it showed 26th September. Jason came out with food and gave me my plate. Since there wasn't any dinner table we just ate on the sofa.
After eating my fill I switched on the T.V. while I was watching Jason went and removed a page off the calendar and it showed 27th September now.

No Easy Mode

Unfortunately for Samuel Erasi Fuller he found out that no amount of video game knowledge can prepare you for a world of skills, attributes and magic and even his top notch survival skills only go so far when there are beasts that shoot fireballs or move like a bolt of lighting. Worse yet there are no levels of skills just a name and description and a percentage display! Edit: Yes the poorly done cover is my personal work. Drawing anything using your finger and an app on your phone was not as easy as the tutorial made it look!

The Dreamside Road
Five years after the world fell into chaos, a treasure of artifacts is up for grabs. The relics of the Dreamside Road offer a power that could help rebuild or annihilate what remains. Orson Gregory is an adventurer for hire, but hunts this treasure for answers, not glory. Enoa Cloud’s late aunt helped hide the Dreamside Road, but following in her aunt’s supernatural tradition offers her as much peril as power. Together, Orson and Enoa battle a magic-obsessed militia, clash with a host of rivals, and face constant adventure on their journey to find the Dreamside Road. *Updates Monday and Friday The Dreamside Road is now on TopWebFiction! Vote so people know this exists. _____________________________________ NOTE: The Progression tag applies specifically to Enoa. Also, fair warning, that element doesn't enter the story until she begins her studies. Content: Main characters range in age from teenagers to people in their thirties and older, but it will not contain gratuitous violence or explicit sexual content. It also won’t shy away from implication, anything to make this story and its world feel more real. Characters will freely allude to potentially triggering topics, including living with a disability, facing terminal illness, coping with trauma, surviving societal destabilization, and the consequences of bigotry. At its most intense, the Dreamside Road is a hard PG-13. Worldbuilding: This is not a story with a lot of early exposition scenes, conveniently explaining ‘magic systems’ and political dynamics. Readers will learn, progressively, as the characters do. This story/world has a ‘magic system’, or rather, a set of systems, but the effort to quantify and understand the truth of the setting plays a role in the backstory, as well as in some character motivations. In that same vein, not every character has a firm grasp on the nature of their world, and not every piece of dialog from every character should be taken as entirely truthful Worldbuilding. Also, this isn't the softest Sci-fi. There are at least some basic explanations given for various elements, but Royal Road does not give me a spectrum to choose from. Given the choice between hard and soft, let's just say The Dreamside Road won't be cited in any college Physics papers. Setting and Theme: The Dreamside Road walks the line between fantasy and science fiction and deals with finding one’s place in a changing world. Many of the characters in this story are United States natives and the story begins in the United States, my homeland. However, knowledge or interest in this country is not necessary to understand the story, especially as it progresses. Also, as this is a novel that deals with societal collapse and while that damage may be widespread, in story, I don’t want to overstep and critique the culture of others’ unless I have particular knowledge in a given area. Ultimately, the Dreamside Road is American in the same way Harry Potter is English, fantasies that do not have a full secondary world, but with enough original elements to fully diverge the setting from our the real world.
