《Cyber-multiverse Milieu》7 - Battle with a Monster
Advertisement
Alicia and I stepped into a canyon environment filled with colorful sandstone walls everywhere. We were on top of the walls with an overhead view of the battle going on in the distance below. There's magic crystal formations all over the place, mostly on top of the hills and walls. Different color magic auras can be seen everywhere.
"Alright, we gotta put our smartphones in your infinite bag.", I said to Alicia fumbling with my smart phone.
"Yeah, don't wanna make that mistake again.", she said putting the phones in the bag.
"Crap, what is that?", I said ready for a fight, sword in my hand.
Something was flying towards us with no wings getting closer until it stopped in mid air a short distance away.
"What are you doing here?", it asked with a very feminine voice. It was a red leopard.
"We're here to claim some of the reward for defeating that monster.", I said to her ready to dive into battle at any moment.
"Now more of you have come to kill for sport. I'll never approve of this. I will have no part of this.", the leopard said.
"Who are you?", Alicia asked before I did.
"I'm the one granting his wishes.", the leopard replied gesturing to the guy currently in battle below and she flew away to the top of another sandstone wall, watching the battle.
"Damn, having her in the fight would've made this so much easier. Genies are super powerful. I wonder if this guy is winning.", I said as a flipping body with armor suddenly smashed through the top of the wall landing on top nearby.
He was a big guy, bleeding all over, with padding, red and yellow plated armor that was completely beat up, dented, and broken in many places. He’s armored from his bottom up to a little above the height where his neck begins. We ran over to him but before we could use our healing crystals...
"My...back..is broken.", he said with his eyes open wide in agony.
"I wish to be restored to full health, no broken bones and all.", he said unable to move.
The red leopard came flying and said "As you wish."

The armored guy felt a warmth spread throughout his entire body and just like that his whole body took an electricity form and he lightning flashed all over the place until he found his weapon.
"I hope you learn your lesson.", were the leopard's last words before she disappeared.
The monster looked like a beast of a dragon with scales and armored skin (natural armor, the dragon isn’t wearing any accessories) that looked like black and blue metal. It had magic crystal formations on various parts of its body that glowed when it used their magical power. This thing was huge, about half the height of the tallest walls around it and even taller when it stood on two legs. It looked like it had cracks in its body here and there with few open wounds.
The armored guy was zipping through the air striking the dragon from all over the place. Bolts of lightning striking all over the place with the armored guy appearing, in a bright flash, at the end of different lightning bolts. The dragon was swift for its size, slashing, swatting, and striking with its tail, keeping up with the armored guy. The armored dragon and the armored guy were both using magic, fire and ice, and the crystal formations on the dragon were constantly lighting up.
The dragon breathed out blue fire mixed with cyan and dark blue energy aimed at the ground all around itself. The armored guy in his electricity form zapped from wall to wall all around the dragon until, from a good height above the dragon's head, he lightning striked himself into the dragon's head, big ass axe right between the dragon's eyes, in a powerful lightning strike blow that left the horn on the dragon's snout severely cracked. He immediately pulled the axe out, which didn't pierce deep enough to do any serious harm, and, as a lightning bolt, struck a spot near me and Alicia, where he turned back to normal form.
"You humans can't always have your way. I've killed many who've dared to cross paths with me.", the dragon snarled.
"How did you learn English?", I asked the dragon, stupefied that the monster knows how to speak English.
"One of my wishes that was granted to me was for all vocalized communication, between me, those who I try to communicate to, all who are observing me who try to communicate to me, and all who consciously observe such communication, to be magically translated to vocalized forms that can be understood by all of the conscious things that I just mentioned, if enough sound symbolism and/or words are known by those conscious things, for vocalized communication to even be possible. But for you humans' insolence I will destroy and devour the closest human homes and families that i find on my path. You shall know your place.", the dragon replied.

The armored guy immediately turned electric form and began his assault on the dragon again, keeping it distracted for the moment. I quickly took off my hoodie and tank top undershirt and threw them near the portal. My dark brown eyes turned glowing yellow, my wings appeared on my back and I jumped down flying to battle, sword in my hand.
Alicia began running along the tops of the walls, shooting different magics at the dragon, making her way to the nearest magic crystal formations.
I flew all around the dragon using my wind magic against my wings to maneuver at high speeds through the air, dodging and slashing at any open wound with my sword. The one spot that I often attacked had a magical barrier that briefly became visible but transparent whenever I struck it, the dragon's heart area. I swung my sword against many different parts of its body with my wind magic flowing through my blade to penetrate deeper with wind blades. My sword bounced off any part of its body that wasn't an open wound. I was attacking with my dark powers but they didn't have much affect on the dragon, barely leaving dents. The armored guy attacked with fire magic along with Alicia all over the dragon. I began to use ice magic for sudden cooling of the glowing red/orange heated spots on the dragon. The armored guy was lightning striking the frozen parts on the dragon along with his axe striking, leaving more cracks and breaks in the dragon's body, leaving open wounds.
With the dragon back on four legs, I had a new idea. I began thoroughly freezing each of the dragon's legs to the ground. Alicia began doing the same. Then while Alicia focused on that, I began using water magic. I began creating a ball of water starting at the dragon's nose, until I created enough to encompass the whole head of the dragon. The armored guy took this opportunity to take a breather.
Determined to try and drown the dragon, I kept adding water to the ball. Some of the crystal formations on the dragon began glowing dark blue and the ball of water started quickly freezing into a ball of ice with the dragon's head in it, mouth wide open. Then some of the dragon's crystal formations started glowing cyan and the ball of ice started glowing cyan, cracking, then exploding in a shower filled with blue flames and the dragon's roar. The dragon then breathed blue flames all over its legs, breaking free from being frozen in place. That’s when some of its crystal formations started glowing a light greenish color. I don’t know why I thought drowning it was a good idea, dragons can hold their breath for hours. The dragon spread its wings and in one flap, created a vicious whirlwind that sent me and the armored guy flying smashing into walls on the side.
The dragon then blasted the armored guy with blue flames and energy as I quickly recovered and started flying around the dragon, my eyes now orange. I caught the dragon's eye as I threw a dark energy orb at it. It quickly flapped one wing, sending me flying through the air as my dark orb hit a spike on its wing shattering it to pieces. I used wind magic to stop myself in midair and suddenly i was flung flipping into a side wall, hard, by an invisible force. The impact caused me to lost grip of my sword which now fell somewhere below, amidst the chaos.
The dragon turned its head to face me and I was raised into the air by an invisible force. The invisible force was moving me by moving my pants, my eyes now turning one eye glowing red and one eye glowing yellow.

Paths of the Chosen (Rewritten, Revised, and Reinvigorated)
Daniel Stewart was chosen to alpha test a brand new Immersive VR game, "The Realms". What he doesn't know is that he has also been Chosen by one of the Powers of a far-off world, and is now a pawn in a game much bigger than any he thought he would ever participate in. Will he survive and thrive in this strange new world, or will he stumble and fall, shattered by the ambitions of another? Does he have what it takes to walk the Paths of the Chosen?---Inspired by the Chaos Seeds novels, TheDespaxas's The Gamer, and a wide variety of games and books, although the world, characters, and systems are my own. Expect high fantasy, magic, combat and intrigue, love and loss, grief and passion. This story is intended for adult audiences and contains explicit sexual content, profanity, and violence (including sexual violence, although not by the protagonist and not as a focus of the story). Chapters with such content will be clearly marked, and all explicit sexual content will be behind spoiler tags. I prefer my stories to have happy endings, and especially in these uncertain times, I feel that it is important to maintain hope. While this tale will reach some dark places, I promise to you that, when all is said and done, the villains will be justly punished and the heroes will prevail and prosper. Remember: it is darkest before dawn, but dawn always comes. Please note also that although this story does not have the [Harem] tag, it does have an extremely slow build into a polyamorous relationship. Additionally, starting with Champion (book two of the series), the [Multiple Lead Characters], [Female Lead], and [Non-Human Lead] tags would also apply to varying degrees.This is a complete, ground-up rewrite of the original Paths of the Chosen, following feedback from here and elsewhere. It is now written in the third-person limited omniscient perspective and in the past tense. In addition, while the major plot beats are unchanged, most of what comes between them has been reconsidered and rewritten, with pacing and characterization as a special focus.---Update schedule: 2 chapters per week (Monday and Thursday), not counting bonus chapters. Chapter length is roughly 2,500 words on average, +/- 1,000 words. Chapters with explicit content tend to be longer so that they are still worth reading for those who would prefer a fade to black. --- Cover art by Agri Karuniawan (@artofagri).

Genso Suikoden: Worlds Collide
The story is set in the Queendom of Falena, the universe of the JRPG game Suikoden V. Though technically a monarchy, the aristocracy holds so much power within Falena that their squabbles and power-plays threaten to de-stablise the whole country. Complicating matters is the presence of the Sun Rune, an royal artifact of apocalyptic power and one of the 27 True Runes in the world of Suikoden. The main character is the Prince of Falena, Freyjadour, who is an unimportant figurehead not in line to the throne. During one of his royal inspections, he meets Natsu, Happy, Gray, and Erza who are a part of an alternate universe (Fairy Tail) and helps them find a way back to their home. Little do they know that it's not only them who came to this world… [This is basically a novelization of the game but with different twists due to the multiple crossovers. Therefore, there is no need to know any of the fandoms involved in this story. This will read like an actual novel itself. The universe and the characters are not owned by me.]
