Devon glares at the dwarf who stands in front of him "you know, if you wanted to talk, you could have just said so… my head still aches" The dwarf chuckles "unfortunately, you're not here because of me" The metal door creaks as it is thrown open and a priest and a lady step into the cell "devon laire, do you have anything you wish to say before we commence?" the priest asks "is it raining? " "huh?" "is it raining? i think it's raining, but i can't say for sure" The dwarf chuckles to himself as the priest glares at devon ..l ; "am i?" The priest gestures and the dwarf punches devon Health -5 "we have matters to attend to, devon " the lady says "so did i, till i was kidnapped, which one of you do i have to thank for that" devon says and the priest narrows his eyes "as a citizen ,you should understand" the lady says frowning "so uh are you two 'the council' " devon says and smiles "the rest of the council are too busy to be here with us" lady merril says "oh, so you guys drew the short straw??" "we don't have time for this" lady merril says and narrows her eyes "devon laire, you led a revolt in an orphanage leading to the death of two nuns, five orphans and the escape of twenty one orphans, what do you have to say for yourself?" the priest narrows his eyes "well, first of all; thank your god you said 'escape', that place was a prison; no, worse… secondly, the nuns deserved to die, the five orphans , were a mistake… and the twenty one that escaped, i hope they're all okay… " "is that all?" "not quite, do you know what was going on in those hellholes you called orphanages, the children when mature were sold as slaves…" "how do you expect the orphanage to run without funds?" lady merril says interrupting devon "really? You are okay with the fact that children are being sold as slaves?" "yes" Devon narrows his eyes at her "although we cannot return you to the orphanage, you have a debt to pay, you will either be sold as a slave or work to pay that debt" the priest says "unfortunately, we cannot execute you for murder because apparently you put your life on the line to defend the walls, and so you will be spared" he continues "do you understand?" "hmmm" devon strokes his chin "are you daft too?" lady merril says "nope, just in huge debt" devon says "at least you got something" the priest says and the lady exhales, and they both turn to leave "wait! Hold up!" devon calls "what?" the priest says turning " are you one of the priest of nanna?" "why, yes" "i met one of you guys on the road here" "really?" "yeah, finn" "that hypocrite" the priest says and clicks his tongue in annoyance "huh?" "he was a theif, a lier, a deciever" Devon opens his mouth to say something but closes it when he realizes the dwarf is still beside him "make no mistake, he is no longer one of us" the priest spits "once he gets here. I shall releive him of his priesthood" he continues "he's dead" "one of his parlour tricks" "he died, i saw him die" "well, he deserved to die..." The priest says and walks away "what was that about?" devon says to himself The dwarf shrugs and sighs "priests" "yeah …"

Red Clay Technical Services: Mercenaries, Magicians, and Marketing
Bobby likes Pabst Blue Ribbon, NASCAR races, and throwing fireballs. A through and through Georgia boy, raised down in the sticks but now working with all things mystic. He is, in other words, a magician. Not just any magician- but one bound by the most egregious of terms: business contracts. See, a long time ago, Bobby got himself involved with a dragon whose business was making magicians, and Bobby wanted magic to be his business. Both of them having common interest, Bobby agreed to sign over his services in exchange for phenomenal (draconic) magic. A pretty awesome deal, right? The contract put him at the top percentage of human magicians, on top of having the backing of a dragon patron, and a fantastic set of benefits befitting an esteemed contractor, so it'd be smooth sailing from then on, right? Not so. That kind of power isn't granted without strings attached, and Bobby's practically bound up in them. Following the esoteric laws set forth by magicians , juggling them with the mortal interests he still has to abide by, and finding himself at the beck and call of a fickle and opaque patron makes his life as a magician a rollercoaster of ups and downs. But when his patron sets him on a strange task- with stranger company, no less, even Bobby has to question what his mission really is. Delving into fantastic crimes and cracking open mysteries is just the least he can do, and he'll do it with the help of his gun, his wand, and his trusted allies both large and small. --- Cover art is of the Georgia Guidestones. Chapters released on a semi-regular basis, at least one every two weeks, sometimes more. Also published on Offprint.net, Webnovel, and Scribblehub under the same title!

Koko wa Ore ni Makasete Saki ni Ike to Itte kara 10 Nen ga Tattara Densetsu ni Natteita
The Hero’s party was attacked by a large group of powerful devils. The party will no doubt be annihilated if this were to go on. One member of the party, the strongest mage, Rakku, decided to stop the enemies in their tracks. 「Leave it to me here and go!」 「But……」 「Hey, I’ll catch up immediately, alright?」 Rakku mindlessly defeated the enemies, over and over again. Using his special skill, Learning, Rakku learned the devils’ magic. As he studied and utilised the devils’ abilities such as Drain Touch, he continued fighting, without rest nor sleep. The devils got stronger and stronger, but Rakku grew rapidly as well. Rakku battled for 10 years, until no devils came at him. Rakku returned to the capital, and was surprised to discover that his own name had become the currency, and a gigantic statue of him, albeit fairly beautified, was made. Due to him relentlessly absorbing the vitality of the devils, he had become young again. An appearance unfitting of his age. Godly abilities. 「I stand out too much」 Rakku concealed his true identity, and decided to pretend being a novice adventurer by disguising himself as a F-rank warrior despite being an S-rank mage. His adventure in this now peaceful (?) world starts now!
