《Gallinus》20- Goal
Advertisement
God had abandoned this world and all his belongings because of a human.
There were many divine weapons and skills that surpassed everything that was already seen in this world in his treasure.
The human who took his place wasn’t a bad person, but he always had something against God.
His reason was that God never did anything for them, just watching them die, just as his family had been murdered by envious people.
In the beginning, the human was a good ruler, handing over the divine weapons he didn’t need in competitions and passing the skills to some reputable families.
He wanted the people of this world to be able to become stronger and thus take them to a higher level.
But he found that just was not enough, so the human remembered the contract with God and found in his treasure some necklaces and several rings.
The necklaces had animals shapes while all the rings were the same as what the human received from God.
In this way, the human created a group of researchers so they could try to replicate what God had created, thus creating contracts with spiritual animals.
In fact, these contracts were considered a failure at first, as the cultivators could only make a contract with an animal weaker than himself.
But, after a few years, contracts started to become more and more common, as fighting in pairs was much better than individually.
In addition, it was possible to cancel the contract, so there would be no losses for the cultivator.
Anyway, everything was going very well for the new ruler, but soon the problems started.
First, as soon as other cultivators discovered that God was gone and a mortal was in his place, a war broke out all over the world.
Many wanted to monopolize the divine weapons and skills that were in the treasure God left, while others just wanted to have the world at their feet.

For these reasons, the new ruler had to struggle every day to contain them, until those around him began to try to take advantage of him.
When the ruler noticed this, he made the worst decision he could have made.
He banished them from this world.
And then Suzy started to explain how it was done...
It seems in this world there is an Astral Passage created a long time ago.
It is very similar to an endless tower, since it is impossible to see its top.
Using this tower, it is possible to go to other worlds and, if you can overcome the power of the worlds in a certain region, you can move to the next plane.
It seems this world was in the third plane, almost in the fourth, in the past.
But now it has fallen to the point that it’s almost out of the first.
Going back to history, the ruler used this passage, to which only God used it only once, which was when he left, to exile all who were against him.
But there were some secrets about this world that he didn’t know, especially about the tower and the cultivators.
First of all, it took a lot of Qi to activate the Astral Passage, making him able to activate it only once a moth.
This was not a big problem, since he could send several families at the same time, but then the second problem occurred.
It was something that not only him, but everyone in the world was affected.
And that was... Qi was rapidly decreasing and was not renewing itself.
At that moment, the ruler discovered one of the most cruel truths in this world.
Qi has a cycle to which the cultivator obtains it, and when he dies, the Qi returns to the world and soon another cultivator takes it.

There was only one way to increase the Qi of that cycle, which was someone connecting this world with others.
And the only being who knew how to do that was God.
When this news was announced to the world, the ruler no longer needed to expel any family, as they started looking for ways to leave.
The Qi in their bodies went with them.
Making the world come to the present day, where there are no more powerful families left.
Soon we returned to the moment I am in, to which Suzy told me that her family was one of those who left.
Not only that, but the world’s Qi is so low that you can activate the Astral Passage only once.
And so, we are in a race against time, to which we need to overcome this tower of challenges, to get that the attention of a master who is watching us, to train for a short period of time under him and then participate in the biggest event in this world, where those who can climb the passage will be chosen...
- Why did you summarize my story? - Suzy asked me, while lying on one of the tree trunks.
Just confirming... But do you even know where your family is?
- No... - She murmurs.
Does this mean we will need to search the entire universe!? That is, if we can get through all the events in this world!?
- ... I know they’re in the third plane.
And how many planets are there in that plane?
- There should not be many, just a few hundred thousand.
...As i thought, this is basically impossible.
- So should we give up? I’ll ask to leave...
Wait, do you want to give up this tower like that!?
- But didn’t you just say it’s impossible? Why are we going to stay here with the danger of getting hurt?
Girl, I already caught fire and stole a thief, what do you think I want to do next?
- Run away?
Yes.
Who wouldn’t want to run away after having almost died twice?
But before that, I want to take the opportunity to take down the other competitors!
- ... Isn’t that totally the opposite of what you want to do?
Well... Probably? But I don’t even know what I am anymore, so let me enjoy my life as a rooster differently.
- What are you talking about?
Anyway, just go to sleep, we need you to have energy for later!
- ... If I sleep, won’t I end up falling?!
Don’t worry, since I’m here watching.
I thought she would say something else. But it seems Suzy is really tired and soon fell asleep.
In the meantime, I remained on the lookout during her sleep, as I am used to standing still, doing nothing.
In the end, as I forgot that I am weak, Suzy ended up falling from the tree as soon as she woke up.

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!

Summoning Shenanigans
Adding in [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Sean was a chemist on Earth with a lovely family life. Everything was going well, until a group of gods decide to summon him to their world. An unfortunate appearance by the trickster god derailed a normal summoning, and now Sean finds himself in a pickle. Content warning: There will be profanity and quite probably some gore, though the point of the story will not revovle around any gory scenes. I'm also including traumatising content as there will for sure be slavery and rape. The rape will be alluded to and not described, there are other places for that. I think this also explains the grimdark tag.

I hope you guys will be helpful and kind to point out the wrongs.) Greetings! 'The Direwolf Sorcerer' is my first work, so be supportive and kind by pointing out my flaws. Thanks!
