《Mystic The Gathering》Chapter 1 - The King
Advertisement
A Gulfstream G800 screeched across the stratosphere. Clocking at over 1,000 kilometers per hour, it aviated proudly across the majestic blue sky.
Inside the jet, a man, dressed in his signature Dormeuil Vanquish III suit and Chopard sunglasses, sat on his equally luxurious leather recliner. The aristocrat stared out of the window while sipping his white wine.
Honestly, I hate flying, but when you’re inside the most expensive private jet the world has to offer, it’s not bad, not bad at all. My plane can change your mind faster than you can say, Jack Robinson. Wait a minute. Who the fuck is Jack Robinson anyway? It needs rephrasing. Faster than you can say, Mister Henry King. That sounds so much better. I must instruct the Dean. Uh-huh. I need to make a mental note of this–
All power went out. Putting the wineglass down, the King gripped his hands on the armrest as if his life depended on it.
Don’t tell me. My state-of-the-art jet is going down in flames. Fucking great, just fucking–
When the power came back, the King loosened up with a slow smile. He removed his sunglasses and looked around.
Everything seems alright now.
“Sorry about that, Mr. King,” the pilot spoke through the intercom. “We probably encountered a solar flare or something, losing all power for maybe five seconds. I’ll have the engineers check on it as soon as we land. Don’t worry, sir. All systems are all good now.”
“Alright, Captain. By the way, how long to our destination?”
“ETA twelve minutes, Mr. King.”
“Excellent.”
Mr. Henry King gulped.
Was I scared? Not really. Power goes out for five seconds, no problem. My jet is equipped with all the necessary safety measures in case something like this happens.
He pressed his lips together and shook his head.

Yeah. Who am I kidding? I was terrified. All the money and power in the world couldn’t even save me if my jet went down.
Mr. King got to his feet and walked to another room.
That’s why I’m going to this important meeting. Julius said that they finally succeeded.
He entered a secret compartment, then touched a glass panel.
Hello, pal. Get ready. For sure, you will see some action this weekend.
Shortly after, Mr. King exited the room and stared out the window. “Hello, beautiful island.” He surveyed the view below, his eyes widening. “Captain, where’s the runway?”
“Mr. King, the watchtower said Mr. Power built the runway underground.”
“King’s flight,” the watchtower announced through the intercom, “please proceed to gate number three leading to our indoor runway.”
Mr. King scanned the island and noticed a portion of the beachfront opening.

To live is to Dream (LitRPG; First Draft)
A new Power has come into the World and seeks to change it. Being on the last dregs of sanity and full of alcohol Daniel West receives an opportunity to seek revenge. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To live is to Dream is the second book of the Just a Dream series. You do not have to read the first to enjoy the second, but there will be recurring characters along the line. The first book features Mir, a man that dislikes how his current world appears and hence wants to change it. The second book will feature other people and how the changes implemented by Mir affect their lives. For those interested in my first book, it's easy to find it. Just beware that with the first book, it was my first time writing and there are a lot of grammar errors despite lots of editing, at least at the beginning of the book. The cover was done by Lmarief. I had requested something bizarre and she delivered. I have even used it as part of the story since her interpretation of my imagination was a bit different. Still, I loved it. As a thank you gift, I posted a link to her profile here for others who want a unique cover. https://www.royalroad.com/profile/220043
