《Winter Sovereign》Chapter 24: Conclusion of the crisis
Advertisement
After Serra finished explaining everything, he left the meeting room.
He left the same way he came, disappearing into a blue light.
One by one, the leaders of the human race gazed at Lucas in a meaningful way before bading farewell and departing to fufill their tasks.
Finally, Lucas was left alone.
A few moments after the last guest left, Lucas burst out in laughter.
"Hahahahaha... This is truly magnificent. Our Recquir Clan is rising to become the leader of this world... Truly a blessing from heaven..."
Lucas was a man who never had a great ambition. Only wishing to fulfill his duties and be a good father to his children.
For this reason, he's only had a few wives and was never too extravagant or too ridiculous.
But now... With the power to rule over the world at his fingers, how could he calm down!?
Serra has little interest in mundane matters and would most definitely leave it to him.
However, he didn't do this just because Lucas was his descendant.
He peered through Lucas soul and knew that although he can be overwhelmed with excitement...
"I should bring out that Thousand-Year White Grape wine... But I shouldn't get carried away. I'll celebrate and make sure to do my duties well."
He is an intelligent man and wouldn't be swayed by his greed or ambition and do what is right.
Serra truly has great foresight.
He knew this man had what it takes to be a wise king.
"Master, please have some more."
Currently, in his room, Syrene was there serving Serra with some fine wine.
"How pleasant."
Serra remarked as he sipped the wine.
"Speaking of which, how is Maia?"
"Oh, that little girl? She's rooted in the garden saying she likes it there."

"Oh."
The garden of the Recquir Palace had many rare spirit flowers that brimmed with elemental essence. It was paradise for plant-type demonic beasts like her.
Paying her no more mind, Serra began sipping his wine and enjoying the flavor.
"Well now... I'll begin teaching that Demon Lord at sometime later... For now, I should pay my disciples a visit..."
"Master, you're leaving?"
"Just a short visit. Why don't you come with me?"
This made Syrene overjoyed.
She was always resentful at not being able to follow her master.
"Of course I will!"
"Haha, good girl."
Serra patted her head.
"Should I also bring some of my descendants along?"
Serra pondered.
It might be a good experience but they might be busy...
I should ask Lucas.
Serra thought to himself.
"But I'll enjoy some more fine wine first."
There's no need to hurry. I'll stay around for some time before I go.
Serra regretted this decision a few days later when his wife arrived.

Far Strider
A college student finds himself transported into a strange land with burgeoning magical powers, and is taken in by Ned Stark. Will he sink or swim in this medieval society, and will he ever get home? ====================== OC-insert without knowledge of Game of Thrones, new planeswalker. Slow power ramp. Second crossover: Star Wars (around chapter 39). ======================= As a note, I started this as a speed writing challenge to myself. The challenge was successful, and I managed 100,000+ words (as well as some character sheets in excel and such) over 10.5 days. Then I had to stop and let my hands recover from their burgeoning carpal tunnel syndrome. The story currently stands at around 150,000 words (or ~550 RRL pages) over 54 chapters; expect a chapter a day until I've caught up with the backlog. The focus of this story was not quality writing, and that hasn't changed. I mostly use it as my semi-guilty "I need to write something, but am not focused enough to write something good" story. Expect self-indulgent writing in general, and a bit of OP (or, well, more than just a bit if we're being honest), especially later in the story as the protagonist matures into a more full-blown Planeswalker. But if you're looking for something with a power-ramping protagonist romping around the place, something you'd be a bit embarrassed to admit liking (I know I am) but like anyways (and come on, this is RRL, so that probably describes just about everyone here who actually has shame), then this may be a nice bit of mental junk food for you.

I might not be able to be consistent with updates to the story, but I'll do my best! I hope you enjoy! ---------------------------- Cover art done by ShayeSoForgetful.
