《Slade the Shade》Chapter 18: Coincidental meeting and the viscount.
Advertisement
"So this is your world in which you live in Slade."
Slade turned to his shadow and found part of it branching out and changing shapes until it formed into a black cat with deep blue eyes.
"I keep trying to tell you that this is not a mere game, besides we are going to be together from now on so better get used to me being around."
Slade thought for a bit before accepting the situation and thought that having a pet is not so bad until he tried to pet the cat.
"Treat me like a pet and I will crush your heart again, and I'm only in this form because not all my power came through with you."
Reluctantly retracting his hand Slade asked.
"So what's going to happen to this world from now on, is this an apocalyptic situation we talking about?"
"Nothing is going to affect this world for about two years, I am a special case where the system has no control over me so I could come here in a limited form through you and if you people can get strong enough in the "game" nothing major would happen here."
"Well I have you as a potential nuke so I am not that worried, so should I explain this world and its technology to you?"
"Please do."
So Slade unlocked his phone and download a few videos for the cat to watch before he took his nap.
When Slade woke up he found a black cat playing games on his phone, thinking nothing of it he felt a bit peckish.
"Kitty cat do you want some food I'm going out."
"Sure let's go out I want to see the world, and you know I can turn you into a cat in the game right."

"Haha, we will not be in your cave anymore try that and watch as they find you."
"I will remember this. Oh, and can you get one of those phones for me."
"No problem just wait till the update comes."
It might have looked weird as a young man walked nonchalantly through the streets with a black cat on his shoulder looking at everything curiously but Slade had better things to worry about as he sat down at the restaurant. After ordering food for him and shadowless the waiter said...
"Sorry sir but if you bring pets to this, you will be responsible for its mess," and then left.
"Hear that don't be a bad cat and shit everywhere."
While Slade and the cat were bickering amongst each other in their minds and eating their food a voice interrupted them.
"Hey, brother fancy meeting you here."
Sighing Slade looked up and saw Andrew and thought that he has to now change restaurants.
"Sure it is now what do you want this time."
"I came to apologize for last time I was inconsiderate."
"Ok so what now.'
"I just want us to add friends in the game so we could hang out in there."
"That's fine we could play together when I'm free."
"I'm guessing it's you who got top ten in rankings with no class then switched to a unique class, congrats," Andrew said with a smile
"Thanks, man."
"So can you tell me how you did it and if there are other opportunities?"
Looking at the cat that is shaking its head Slade replied...
"No I'm afraid not."
"That is unfortunate, I see you have a new pet never figured you were that type of person."

"Well I sort of stumbled across him and now we are and by the way, I'm in the eternal empire at Evergreen city if you need me."
With that Slade headed home integrated the cat into his shadow and logged back into Limits.
Back in the city, a few well-armed guards stopped Slade who thought he was in some kind of trouble.
"Stop traveler our lord wishes to meet you urgently."
Without waiting for his response they escorted him to the biggest mansion he had ever seen where they stopped as they reached the open gates. an elderly man with a butler suit came to and bowed...
"Please follow me our esteemed guest my lord Viscount Hemington is waiting in his office."
'So that is his name'
While following him Shadowless warned...
"Remember this, people are in power because off reasons you do not want to find out about currently."
"Do I look like I would offend everyone I see...you know what, never mind."
And with that, they reached the office where a middle-aged man with thick muscles was waiting.
"Greetings traveler Slade, come sit down we got much to discuss." boomed a loud voice.
Unintentionally bowing half-heartedly and sitting down Slade replied with...
"Greetings Viscount Hemington I heard so much about you glad to meet you in person."
"Before we begin I want you to serve your allegiance to me and my cause."

Fateful
Edgar Vogel was a 30 year old underemployed veteran who dropped out of college. His life was comfortable but all ambition was lost. His plans, born of depression and anxiety, were to simply live out his life of mediocrity and enjoy what little he could. That all changed, all it takes is something small to change fate, in his case ice. Reborn into a primitive but fantastical world, full of magic and monsters, he may make something of himself. Oh and there's a massive war against werewolf hordes on the mainland. Edgar, now Jon, has a second chance at life. His previous life was reduced to fragments of technical knowledge that come to him in the form of visions. His new home, the Northern Isles, is far removed from the conflict of the mainland for now as he lives in the quiet frontier village of Terra. His new family believes that fate can be changed and destiny overruled but he has no idea. Whether that's true or not, being told by a crazy old lady that his fate starts with him sitting by a rock in the middle of a field seems wrong, but who knows? Maybe she's right but what's the bit about 'await the bite' supposed to mean? Jon soon learns and his life changes forever. What can a young boy who's gained wolven-blood do? Will he be a monster or will he find salvation? Jon was bitten. ********************************************************************************** Welcome to the Northern Isles. My first story posted on here! I already have the outline of the first couple of books planned out and will be posting a new chapter every Tuesday and Friday. The story will be dark at times but I intend to keep things fairly light when I can. I'm aiming for a world that isn't full of sunshine and rainbows but isn't as bleak as it could be. Focusing on friendship, camaraderie, sh*t talking, and adventure.

The Dark Lord Gillian - Tales of Prompted Madness (Complete)
There's an evil wizard. A dark knight. An elf with a shovel. There's a dude with a car. And there is a lot of just complete and total chaos. ... As an explanation for those mildly interested or mildly confused: this is a story that was crafted from the beloved-madness that is r/writingprompts. From one prompt, to the next prompt, to the next, with no other way to progress except taking a new prompt and using it. Far as stories go, this one was spawned by a mix of blind-clicks, and dice-rolls, more than any true selection process. Fantasy driven, it was written mostly in my spare hours between work-projects and on lunch breaks (whenever I was lucky enough to get those) by clicking on reddit writingprompts that I could find within those windows of time. Title is notable cliche, and I'm far more than just open to alternative suggestions. This story is complete and will by copied and pasted in with minimal to no clean-up. It will not be held to much in the way of quality standards. So if you have corrections, just keep that in mind... But, on the brighter-side of things, there will be an awful lot of it. Apologies ahead of time.

The Arcanist Seer
An eye of which sees everything beyond the skies and heavens saw an embodying fate with reek of blood and greed. He who sees the future and yet is restrained by his own shackles of his destiny. An eye that serves a purpose but nothing in exchange for his freedom. Will he remain as a tool of his adversary or escape from his own shackles of fate? This is a story of two old men trying to free from the shackle of their destiny set in a future only to await their impending doom. This is a story of a dead god, and of a storyteller, trying to break from the bonds of the past. And as their stories go, one of them will face the events that unfold in their distant past, as the other one will unveil its mystery predicted by its future. Is it a mistake to challenge fate, after all? *** The world-building is set upon on the universal scale, with dungeon and old-style fantasy. It has a progression that follows with the consistency of a dungeon setting, although it's not what you call a dungeon, but a function of a crystal. There's a lot to take in this novel, but that's all within my intention. I have always enjoyed challenging conventional ideas. The cover is not mine, it's just temporary.
