《Dragon Princess》Volume 2 Prologue - Warriors Of Another World
Advertisement
Hello guys, finally the start of the second volume so soon. Since I'll soon go in a trip for two weeks I decided to start the volume now, though the trip will be the first August so I still have some time.
You were expecting a regular 'summon hero to kill the demonking' ? Sorry but you are wrong.
Hope you'll enjoy it !
*********** ************** *********** **************** **************
When my vision started to return, the place before me made me remember some memories, it was a place I once passed by; the dimensional tunnels I once entered with Veralox. It seems that we are being directly guided through the tunnels so we don’t have to do anything.
By my side, Eniel and Luna were also waking up. I guess I should also wake up the stowaway who hid in my clothes.
Shina: “Come on Nuya, you don’t have to hide yourself anymore.” I said as I poked my chest.
Nuya: “Nyahaha~ You can’t leave without your number one maid !” She laughed as she puffed out her chest.
Shina: “Heh, sure I can’t.” I answered as I returned her smile.
Eniel: “What is this?” Eniel asked as she pointed to a purple light afar, in fact, a purple magic circle.
Shina: “Is it already the end? It can’t be, even with Verlox I had to travel more than a few hours…” I grumbled
At our right, another tunnel joined our, inside it were four unmoving figure. Are they people summoned just like us but who didn’t regain conscious yet?
As I was thinking, the magic circle started to glow of a dark purple light and many small balls formed around it.
Luna: “Milady, danger ahead. May I?” Luna who was until now silent took a battle stance.
Not only her, but I also felt that the one controlling the circle didn’t have any good intention toward us. The orb from the magic circle swiftly started to attack us by using purple ray.
Using her swords, Eniel effortlessly cut through the ray, however, we weren’t the only one aimed at, the four people by our side were also targeted by whoever attacked us.
Shina: “Destroy it.” I ordered her as extended my hands toward the four people, creating a barrier blocking every attack.
Luna: “Yes milady.”
Luna instantly unsheathed a Japanese small dagger with a wooden handle and disappeared before reappearing behind it. A sudden cut appeared on the magic circle, but it didn’t break it.
However, a white flame suddenly emerged from the cut which easily burned the circle.
I don’t know who tried to kill us, but he shouldn’t be that strong with a magic this weak, but…
Shina: “This may be fun after all.” I muttered as a smile formed on my face.
Concentrating my mana, I used a kind of magic I hadn’t used for many years. Metamorphosis magic, transforming my tail and ears as well as hiding my horn, I took a form I had when I traveled in the past.
Nuya: “Hoho~ How nostalgic mistress !” She said as if inspecting me.
Eniel: “Cute…” Eniel said as she hugged me from behind.
I took the form I had when I went to school, a catgirl form.
Shina: “You girls should hide your power from now on, we don’t know what will await us in that place.” I advised them.
I’ve seen enough anime to know what being summoned mean. In short, we’ll be used as canon fodder to kill a demon king and save a kingdom…
Luna: “As you wish.”

Nuya: “Okie !!”
Eniel: “Humu...”
*********** ************** *********** **************** **************
A few hours passed since we arrived in the dimension tunnels and the four unmoving figure finally seem to be showing sign of waking up. But it also looks like our travel come to an end, I large fissure opened in front of us and a blinding light is welcoming us, forcing us to close my eyes.
When my vision finally returned, we were in a large room of twenty meter long and large and ten meter high completely made of white bricks with only a large blue magic circle on the ground and a door.
By our side, the four persons were finally awake but also bewildered by the situation.
???: “Who are you and what do you want?!” A woman yelled, as she unsheathed a pure white sword with many light blue symbols on it, the sword was generating a golden light as if sensing her mistress's will to fight, is that one of those… A holy sword?
The woman seems to be only a few years older than Eniel, is she eighteen? Or maybe nineteen?... Probably nineteen. Her body golden long hair are truly beautiful as they gracefully dance in the air every time she moves her head… She is dressed in what seems to be an expensive blue armor. But there’s one thing I can’t forgive… WHAT WITH THOSE MASSIVE BREASTS?! Is she of the same species as Estiel?! It’s absolutely not because I have no breast… They’ll grow up soon…
At her side, a girl of around my age also took out of god know where a massive hammer of 1.5m long, her pink hairs aren’t that long and are forming a twin tail.
She look like the innocent yet energetic and wild type of girl, the tomboy type who prefer to play outside instead of wearing cute clothes, this maybe also explain why she is wearing plain and easy to move in clothes. She is only wearing a pink mini short and little mini shirt who is pink as well.
But to be able to lift that hammer like it’s nothing… She possesses an inhuman strength. But at least, she is my comrade when it come to breasts!
On the other hand, the two others who also took a fighting stance when the woman unsheathed her sword aren’t that simple either.
???: “Have you no honor as a warrior?! Name yourself before fighting!” A majestic roar was heard.
It is one of the two persons left, a massive man of more than three meters high and full of muscle. He is wearing a plain brown trousers and a strange type of cloth who is only covering his arms and back, showing his massive torso full of scars. With his orange hairs and beard and the oppressive aura he is giving, this man is truly the definition of a great warrior.
???: “My name is Thera Pendras, personal knight of the queen Erelin under the name of ‘Transcending Sword Thera’ and the great hero who killed the Dark Dragon Kras. Don’t underestimate me because I am a woman.” She said as she pointed her sword at the man, sending a challenge.
???: “Kii Pendras, I am Thera’s little sister and a warrior who is fighting by her side.” She cheerfully introduced herself.
???: “Guahaha~ Don’t worry, in a duel of warrior gender isn’t important. I am Irsteal Burkheart, king of Torokas and surnamed the ‘Beast King’. I come from a commoner family so I don’t have a bloodline.” He answered with a laugher.
Thera: “Being a king while coming from a commoner family, truly impressive. From your wounds, your exploit on the battlefield shouldn’t be few as well.” She said with a pleased voice.

Irsteal: “Your words honor me.”
From his stance, Irsteal seems to be fighting with his fists which are covered with by a black gantlet. It doesn’t seem to be a metal I saw before… It should be something which only exist in his world.
???: “Hohoho~ you youngster sure are something.” An elderly voice cut their interaction.
Irsteal: “Aren’t you a monster as well, old man.” He said while smiling.
The elderly voice belongs to the last of the four people, an old man dressed in a white cloak without a hood and a white pants. At his waist is a long katana, but what surprised me the most about the man is his eyes, in fact the man is wearing black glass which doesn’t let us see his eyes, but I can still tell that he is blind, though I think that everyone in this room already guess that as well.
The man’s face also possesses a lot of scars, showing that he escaped from many difficult situations and maybe killed a lot of warriors. Truly the archetype of a legendary old samurai.
???: “This old man’s name is Tokeshita Kazam, please call me Kazam. I am nothing but an old warrior.” He casually said.
Irsteal: “Old but didn’t seem to have lost your abilities…” He said pleased.
Kazam: “The only day a warrior retire is the day of his death.”
Thera: “I guess words aren’t needed anymore.” The knight said as she prepared to enter the death fight.
Those people truly are reckless, they don’t care about anything anymore and are ready to kill each other as warriors… By my side is also someone who wants to join them as a warrior.
Shina: “Hah… Eniel, stop them please but don’t kill them.” I asked as I sighed.
Eniel only answered me with a smile before taking out a single katana from the black cloak she is using. The moment the katana arrived in her hand, her killing intent froze the atmosphere and made the four people freeze and glare at her.
Irsteal: “It seems that we have an impressive monster among us.” He said as cold sweat began to gather on his body.
Eniel: “Just call me Eniel, a simple warrior who is protecting her sister.” She said as she stared at the four warriors before her.
Even though she is limiting herself because I asked her, Eniel still unleashed a large amount of her aura which would have even made a Medium God tremble, but those people are still willing to fight. But I don’t think that it’s merely because of their warrior pride, they have the power to do so.
???: “STOP RIGHT HERE YOU IDIOT!”
At the same time, a woman entered the room as she sent the door flying with a flying kick.
The woman is a demi-human just like the current me, a bunny demi-human dressed well… Just like a bunny girl from those anime I guess. She has some beautiful long blue hairs with a tinge of purple and of course… Two massive melon even bigger than Thera’s ones. Enemy detected.
Being interrupted, the four persons finally regained their mind as the adrenaline decreased, leaving only a sad Eniel who couldn’t fight.
Thera: “Are you the one who brought us here?” Thera asked as she pointed her sword at the woman.
???: “Yes I am ~pyon.” The woman said as she took an idiotic pose.
“.........”
???: “Someone say something please!” She yelled with tears in her eyes, ready to cry at any moment.
Nuya: “Don’t mind~ don’t mind~” Nuya comforted her as she patted her head.
“Miss Fairy…” She muttered as she looked at Nuya with sparkling eyes.
Luna: “Nuya, don’t touch strange things. What will you do if you catch her stupidity?” Luna coldly said. Luna, if you do she’ll cry you know?
“Huuuuuuuuuh I-I only tried to make t-the atmosphere lighter” As expected, she started to cry…
*********** ************** *********** **************** **************
After passing a few minutes to comfort the rabbit woman, she finally calmed down and regained confidence… Though I think it’ll be quite funny to tease her.
???: “*Keuf keuf* Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Kira. One of the inhabitant of this world. I belong to ‘Saviors’, a guild from this realm.”
Thera: “And so, why did you summon us ?” She asked without pointing her sword for once, she seem to have relaxed.
Kira: “Every ten years, every guild from every realm of this world summon people from another world to join them. So… Congratulation, you are the lucky winner! *clap clap clap* ”
Luna: “Milady, may I?” She whispered in my ears. Knowing what she wanted to say, I nodded my head to give her my approval.
Luna: “In short, you kidnapped us from our world to work for you. Am I wrong?” She coldly asked.
Kira: “T-This is…true… We also didn’t wish for this, but because of certain circumstance we have no other way to survive right now. So please, I wish for you to lend us your help.” She asked as she sincerely bowed her head.
Secretly looking at me, Luna was waiting for what answer she wished me to give her, she knew that I didn’t want to reveal our situation so soon and was acting as the leader.
Closing my eyes, I telepathically sent her my answer.
Luna: “I refuse, we don’t have the obligation to help you.”
Hearing this, Kira made a sadness face, but she knew that she had no right to object to this...but.
Kira: “Might I still ask you to reconsider, we terribly need the help of strong people. Many life depends on this.” She shamefully begged.
Luna: “I still refuse.” She coldly answered, not swayed by her demand.
Kira had a wry smile on her face as tears began to gather, yet she still tried her best to smile. The reason why she was unwilling to give up didn’t escape me, it was because not only us but the four others were also hesitating on what they should do.
Having seen many deaths, they probably just like us know that they can’t accept their demand just because they were touched by the girl. Life wasn’t this simple and if I learned something during the past six years, it's that granting someone’s wish will always make someone else unhappy.
Our decision would probably greatly influence the one of the other summoned people. Since the previous scene, a certain bond was created between us, something like comradeship between people who arrived at the same time at the same place and who acknowledged each other.
Luna: “...but, there might be a chance if I were to hear about your circumstances.” She coldly said as she returned beside me.
Kira made a dumb face as she heard this, but as soon as her brain decrypted the information, a large sincere smile formed on her face as tears slowly fell on her cheeks.
Kira: “Thank you!!”
Luna: “It’s not me that you should thank, but this person.” She said as she slowly bowed to me… Idiot.
Kira: “Please follow me, I’ll guide you to our leader.” She said as she made us sign to leave the room.
Irsteal: “Shall we follow them as well?” He asked Thera who now didn’t have any hostile feeling.
Thera: “Kii, let’s gather information first, we’ll decide what to do after.”
Kii: “Sir yes sir!” She said feigning being a soldier.
“Heh…” A small smile appeared at the corner of her mouth as she looked at her sister.
Kazam: “Hohoho~ This old man will follow you as well.” Kazam cheerfully said as he walked out.
Shina: “Well then, let’s go as well.” I said as I walked toward the exit whose door was gone.
I still wonder who was the one who attacked us in the dimension tunnel, it seems that this guild’s truly angered dangerous. As I was thinking, a large weight fell on my shoulder as two arms enlaced my neck.
Shina: “Eniel, what are you doing?” I asked.
Eniel: “Shina...catgirl...cute.”
Shina: “You still didn’t move on?!” I yelled surprised.
Nuya: “Mistress is cute like that~” Nuya said as she lay down on my head.
Shina: “Haaah… I feel already exhausted...”

Savage Hunters
Giant monsters roam the land Civilization is frozen in a savage age. For the beast slayer Alden, power and survival are one and the same. The ancient evil that once ravaged his village and murdered his ancestors has returned. At the same time, politics hurls Alden and his crew into gladiator pit battles for control of the throne. When Alden takes possession of a cursed sword promising untold power, the hunter is determined to save his people by slaying every giant monster standing between him and the throne. But the angry ghost trapped inside the blade has other ideas. Buckle up for the brutal LitRPG ride of a lifetime Savage Hunters is an alternate-world neolothic fantasy. Characters grow their powers with explicit stat blocks presented right in the text, including levels, attribute scores, and unlockable skill trees. Experience is accumulated by battling enormous monsters the size of buildings. Political intrigue and romance elements ramp up as the series progresses. I originally wrote this story after playing Monster Hunter with my niece. She was 12 at the time, already an avid reader, and wanted to read my other published books. I'm a licensed psychotherapist specializing in severe trauma so I tend toward darker fiction. I told her my usual books are too brutal for her but I'd write her something special. The result was this series, which has been praised by both teens and adults for its depth and universal appeal. It begins with an emphasis on cultural elements because I consulted with a trained anthropologist to craft this neolithic setting down to exacting social detail. After these opening chapters, it rapidly shifts to an action-packed adventure. The first 3 books are fully written as of November 2020, totalling approximately 69 chapters. The first book has been professionally edited already. The following two books require some editing which I'll do on a chapter-by-chapter basis as releases progress. I welcome reviews and comments. Writing is a passion, and reader engagement makes my labor all the sweeter.
