《The man who wasnt human to begin with....》Revamp Chapter #2
Advertisement
Wow mixed review much? Anyway, I will probably be doing BOTH of these at the same time, I was just wondering where to take the other one, (and a few comments pointing out what I did wrong came up, for example that he wasn't guarded)
Anyway, I have (actually) about 3 chapters of the other one saved up. I think I will break this one off and post it as its own story (A different rendition maybe? I just dont have a decent description for it yet...)
Anyway, the pole is for priority on one story or the other... (Of course, I will probably not pay attention to it, and just write when I want to write, but it might possibly have maybe probably some partial effect on how I manage my time... maybe?)
----------------------------
The circle stopped glowing as the ceremony completed.
The king looked at the new arrivals, trying to judge their worth, but found that he was unable to at the moment.
He looked at the dozen or so arrivals, overjoyed at their large number, as the ancient records stated that most likely the groups would be under 5 people.
The group seemed to be all young adults except for one man. They were a mix of both genders, and had similar features between them all, the same skin color and similar hair colors. His curious gaze fell upon one exception. A yellow haired person, who appeared to be frantically searching the room. She was beautiful, even more so then his daughter, who was heralded as the best in the nobility. He glanced around, seeing the lecherous and lust filled gazes that the nobles were giving her. He knew that he would have to shield her from them, or risk losing the cooperation of the rest of the group. He took a hand to rub his temple at the trouble she would bring.

Herald : "Welcome Heroes, Yo-"
Blonde Girl : "YOU FUCKING PIECE OF SHIT!!!" At those words, most of the room was stunned, but even they could not predict what happened next. She ran over to the only adult from the group, and grabbed his shirt, then proceeded to throw him on the ground. She appeared to be extremely furious.
Veronica : "I WAS THIS FUCKING CLOSE!!! YOU JUST HAD TO PUSH US APART AS THE SPATIAL DISTORTION FORMED DIDN'T YOU!?!?!?!"
The man seemed baffled, at both her extreme turn in attitude and the turn of events.
The king motioned to a guard, to go restrain the girl before something happened. The guard nodded in response, and went behind her.
When she noticed the guard approaching her, her eyes went wide with anger and rage. She flicked her hand in his general direction, and everyone in the room watched, wide eyed, as the knight flew backwards thirty some-odd feet, before crashing into a table.
The girl seemed to come back to her senses, a massive scowl on her face, as she turned to the King.
Veronica : "You...You have just made a BIG mistake Mr..."
The mages, who had preformed the ceremony had started to put up shields around the nobles and the king, trying to protect them from the rampaging girl, due to the unexpected course of events. They had never expected a hero to be so... unreasonable... after the summon, so they had neglected to set up any countermeasures beforehand.
The girl reached into a small pouch she was carrying, and produced a small silvery metallic object. She pointed it at the king, and spoke again.
Veronica : "What is going on?"
The herald started to speak, causing her to redirect her fury towards him.
Herald :""I am sure that you must be surprised at this sudden event in your life, but please, do not be alarmed! We have summoned you into our world! You have the opportunity to become the strongest people on our planet! To slay great beasts! To destroy entire armies with your might! Of course, all of this will happen in due time, for now please calm down and listen to our tale of sorrow and grief..."

Veronica : "Tell me, there should be more of us... where are they?"
The king was baffled at the turn of events. He had no idea what she was talking about. They had only summoned these people, no one else had showed up. This was their first attempt as well.
Herald : "Please hero, be calm. I am sure their must be some sort of misunderstanding..."
He did know one thing however, this girl, she was not normal.
King :*Could she be???*
One of the other heroes walked up to her, attempting to calm her down.
Boy : "Chill Veronica, chilll.... Its kind of obvious that he isn't in the room right? Perhaps he wasn't summoned?"
Veronica looked at the boy, slightly lowering her weapon, but then shook her head.
Veronica : "That doesn't explain anything. This was targeted on him..."
Boy : "Targeted on who?? Veronica, you aren't making any sense?? Where did you get that thing?? Perhaps you should just put it down, and let them explain what is going on... Right?"
She glanced at the room. It appeared they weren't taking her seriously.
She then looked at the king, and at those around her. She flicked a switch on the metallic device, causing it to produce a high humming sound. The ears of everyone in the room pricked up at that sound. It was... unnatural. Something out of place in this medieval castle.
One of the warriors next to the king bent down
Veronica : "Tell me, how do incompetent bafoons like you humans, come into contact with Maximar technology? Where did you get this? Why was this allowed by the Stratovian council!?! And above all.... WHERE IS MY FUCKING HUSBAND!?!?"
At her words, various murmurs sounded from the assembled people.
The king had caught the word. The word which should only refer to living gods. The ones who settled in their sky cities and watched over them. That weapon, it looked different then most. It appeared harmless to him, but the way she was wielding it, she acted like it was a powerful weapon.
King : *Is this a bluff? Or is that a powerful weapon of their world?*
The king motioned to more guards, ordering them and the mages to surround her, and take the weapon away from her.
King : "And why should I listen to a girl? You probably haven't even known a man yet? Who is this husband of which you speak?"
Veronica : "YOU DARE!?!!? I ought to roast you where you stand..."
She went quiet. Then took a deep breath. She appeared to have calmed down.
Veronica : "It appears that we are not getting anywhere with this."
She lowered her hand which had the weapon, and spoke loudly.
Veronica : "I am Vincenza Scylax, wife of high Primus Ajax Scylax. My husband and I were "summoned" here through a spatial distortion created with extinct Maximar technology... Inside the spatial distortion is appears that I was separated from him thanks to a certain human. I am currently extremely aggravated because of the unknown circumstances where my essentially infant husband has been isolated with nary a hope at surviving if something more dangerous then your pathetic race were to find him..."

The Merchant Prince Book 1: Returning Home
Enter a world of deceit and assassins. Augustus DeCastellian is a member of a wealthy merchant family, with ports all over the known world. He is sent on a voyage to new lands to open trade routes, but when he returns he will need to fight, using his tools of manipulation and cunning, for what he is owed.Author's note: This story is somewhat slow-paced, especially in comparison to the norm on Royal Road. The first three chapters act almost as a prologue, to give you a feel for what the rest of the story will be like. So, I suggest new readers try to get to the end of chapter 3 before deciding if this story is for them.A few of my reviews have said that this story is abnormal for Royal Road. I agree with that sentiment, at least based on what I've read on the site. It was just an idea that was in my head, that I began trying to write once my hobbies were cancelled due to the virus. I found Royal Road after I started writing it. Honestly, it's probably not even tailored for the web-novel format. But it's the story I wanted to tell. Discord: https://discord.gg/sk63gep

Changes
Changes is a collection of three stories that take place after the events of Edict. It would benefit the reader to read both Hy'Ruh-ha and Edict. Story one: The Monk and The Princess After a several months break from duty, Soletus, is asked to serve by the Patriarch as an escort to a conference the Brotherhood is attending. The only catch is he's acting as a second warden because someone wants him promoted. All he has to do is be at his best. However, his best is put to the test as he led surly men and then get whisked off to solve a disturbing plot with a determined and bored princess. Notice: Please note, that Soletus, aka main character is asexual. That is part of being a neth elf. This story delves into information about it neth and gets into the neth elf experience a few times in this story. You've been warned. Also note: As much as I didn't want to put it in this story, avoiding it was a futile effort on my part. There were things I needed to explain about Soletus and it's hard to write personal tales about character when avoiding talking about certain personal aspects of them. Story Two: The Sun and Stars - Summary and Date TBA

This project has no purpose
Summary: This is the story about the life of a "human" amidst a world that only appears to be earth at first glance. Long ago the face of this world resembled the typical tales of yore; of knights and fairies, swords and magic, however such an era has come and gone. Even the world of fantasy has progressed steadily into the modern epoch filled with the wonders of science and technology! In the ancient times a certain crisis had occured that lead to the quick decline of various magical species. Due to their low population and general incompatibility with the other races they could not crossbreed to save their numbers. Left with no other choice the major races of the world gathered together in an attempt to change the fate of this dying world. Their only hope was a special 'world-tier' magic known as 'the dusk of harmony'. The result of this magic would dissolve every race into their purest essences known as 'aspect' and instill them within the human population. The humans were the best choice as their numbers were numerous and form was similar to most races. As such, the various races of this world managed to save themselves in essence and soul only, though perhaps there was no other choice. With the various humans now carrying the weight and aspects of those who came before, life has continued onto the modern age. Yet, even amongst these hybrids 'Pures' emerge from time to time, beings who have inherited not only aspects of the ancient races, but their forms too. These Pures are often times exceptionally talented and seen as near deities. This is the story of a perculiar boy who is born with the soul of a stranger from the world known as 'Earth'. With the memories and soul of a human, he too is a rare Pure; a pure human. --- This project literally has no purpose and is being written because I felt like it. There isn't any semblance of a solid direction nor have I thought about any characters aside from the main character and a few auxiliary cast. If you would like to contribute to building this world with me then please contact me through a DM or by leaving a comment, I will be sure to credit you.
