《Deck of Cards》Angry
Advertisement
Right now Echo is sitting on top of a bed in a cell. He got here when a large group of guards arrested him after beating up the group of guards who tried to take his bounty. Because currently he needed the kingdoms support, he couldn't kill the guards and so he just surrendered when ten or so guards appeared. After that he was thrown into this cell and has been here for a few hours.
He knows that he will be freed soon from here, so he just needs to wait for it.
'It has been a long time when I was last in jail...For the same reason.'
Currently he is resting his head on his hands while watching the stone ceiling with cracks in them. He also can't use his magic because of the black bracelets around his wrists that will cancel any of his spell. So he can't get his cards either.
'It's boring.'
Time slowly passes and Echo starts to be more on his thoughts. But he is soon brought back by a loud noise made from metal hitting metal.
He looks towards the cell door and sees one of the creepy Royal Guards there. He doesn't say anything, just motions for him to move with his head.
'Fucking speak for once. That is really fucking creepy. Maybe they aren't even humans. Maybe some kind of doll or something. Fucking hell. I really want to fucking know.'
Echo just sighes and pushes himself up.from the bed and walks up to the cell door, which is then opened by the Royal Guard. So he gets out and follows the knights for a while until they reach a room with soldier who looks like a higher ranking person.
"Sit down please."the man says and points towards the chair across from him. So he sits down and puts his right leg onto his left and crosses his arms.
"So what do you want to talk about. Maybe about how your fucking subordinates tried to take my bounty."Echo says with an angry tone.
"I am deeply sorry about that, Hero. I have already dealt with them."he says.
"Good to hear. So can I go now? I have shit to do."Echo asks and he immediately replies"Yes. Of course. You Will get your belonging back plus the bounty and then you can leave."
So after Echo got the cuffs taken off from him and his money back, he left the building with the Royal Guard following him. As he was about to walk away, the Guard stepped in front of him and shaked his head.

"I need to go back to the castle?"he asks and receives a nod from the Guard who then shoes him the after you motion with his hand.
"Fine. Lets go."He says and the two set food towards the castle. On the way Echo managed to quickly but some saslyk from one If the stall st the market place as breakfast. While eating the meat off the rod and walking, he looked around the city more then last night. All of the buildings looked like the medieval ones back on earth. The city itself looked exactly like the medieval city back on Earth, but there were magic shops added.
Also the Guard behind Echo attracted a lot of attention, because he, she, Apache helicopter is pretty tall and the armor is pretty white, which obviously would attracted attention. This also drew attention to Echo, who was calmly walking in front of him.
'They probably think that I am someone important because of the Guard.'
He didn't think he was thought as a hero, because as far as public knew, the Heroes weren't in this world. Only a higher ranking people know about them.
So Echo just ignores the peoples gaze and just continues to walk towards the castle.
After a while they reach the gate of the castle, which is also guarded by the Royal Guards. As he nears the gate, the guards open it and let him in.
After the two have entered, the gate is closed behind them and they keep walking towards the castle.
Once they are in, he tries to go back to his room, but is stopped when the Guard grabs his shoulder. So he looks back and says"King wants to see me?"
The guard nods and he just sighs.
'Should have guessed.'
So he now starts walking towards the throne room, where he gets in a minute. He opens the door to the room and sees the king on his throne with her mother and two daughters at her side.
'Oh. It's that brat.'
Echo stops on the halfway point between the throne and room and stands there with his arms behind his back. He looks at the ceiling and can barely see the Guards up there with their bows aimed at him.
'Sudden movements and I'm dead.'
"So what do you want?"Echo just asks him without caring about his status.
"You first beat up my guards and get arrested. And now you dare to act rude in front of me. Don't you have any manners?"the king says with a serious voice.

"I have manners, but just not towards everyone."Echo continues"Also don't you fucking dare to ask me about my manners, when your fucking soldiers tried to take my bounty. My kill, my rewards. A simple rule that your boys obviously don't know."Echo says with an angry voice. Immediately a spear from behind is placed on his neck, which he just grabs and holds onto it.
"You want to fucking kill me, then do it."He says to guard behind his back, while holding onto the spear.
"So much talent, but so rude. Take-"
"Stop all of you."says the first princess.
"What do you think you are doing?"says the king to his daughter.
"Saving your life."she replies.
"It seems that you are saving his, Elysa."the king says to her."You know about them, don't you?"she directs her question to Echo.
"You mean the fucks who Are aiming their bows at me on the ceiling? If that, then yes. I knew it the first time."Echo replies, while still holding onto the spear, which is Held against his neck.
"Ao I was right. All of you stand down. You too Echo."she says.
The spear is removed from his neck after he lets go of it and the archers slowly move their hand back, so their bow won't be drawn.
"So now what?"Echo says and the princess replies"You can leave. But next time don't attack the guards."
"Only If they don't threaten me first."Echo replies and leaves the room while all of the eyes are on him. After the door closed behind him, the king says"What do you think you are doing?"
"Thinking unlike you. I have told you before to leave him be. The thing got already solved, so why did you summon him here and then started to yell at him. I have said it again not to make him angry. His only reason for even fighting is money and if a employee isn't happy with his employer, he does what?"she says.
"Looks for a new employer."the king answers.
"Exactly. So lets him solve his stuff by his own and keep your nose out of his business. He knows about the shadow guards, he would definitively know about any spy you sent at him. So leave him alone as long as he doesn't commit a crime that he actually is guilty off."
"Attacking a soldier is a crime Elysa."the king reminds her.
"And using your job to take from others is a more serious crime here. So this was your fault in a sense. Your employees, your fault for not teaching them well. So just pay him and he will fight for us."
"How should I trust a man whos only motivation is money."the king says and she replies.
"You don't, but you can just pay him enough not to betray. As simple as that."
"It isn't as easy as you make it to be. He is a rude man with serious attitude problems."
"He also is stronger then the hero and actually could kill. Unlike the others who have never killed and have brightness in their eyes, he has killed and his eyes show only darkness. He isn't afraid to die, so you can't threaten to kill him either."
"And more the reason to do it. He is dangerous."
"And also would be helpful on the field. You need to be able to kill, If you want to live. So for the final time I say: Leave him alone?"the princess says and proceeds to leave the room, leaving her parents and younger sister there.
"So what will you do my king?"asks his wife.
"I'll decide once they are on the field. Depending on his usefulness, I will judge him."
As for Echo he had run into his beautiful brown haired green eyed teacher, Evelyn. The first thing she said, when he saw him.
"What the fuck happened to you? Why Are you covered in blood? Are you okay?"she asks while panicking.
"I'm fine. It isn't my blood."Echo replies.
"Then who's is it?"
"Some dead fucks. I guess. I don't remember."Echo says and walks on.
"What do you mean by some dead persons blood?"she asked with a confused guy.
"I killed a few guys."he says and follows it with a small laughter.
'What the fuck.'she thinks'Did he just mess with me again or told the truth. Damnit it is impossible to understand him.'
She just sighs and then realizes that she needs to go fast to the bathroom.

Katra
Kardin lived a happy and good life. That is, till he was given a strange orb by an even stranger man, maybe even a demon. He watches as his village is burned, the villagers slaughtered and his friend devoured. He escapes into the Jungle of The Gods, a place of ancient ruins and deadly animals. There, he is changed and his fate diverges from what should have been his death. Now he must forge his own path in a world of great beauty and power, where death lurks around the corner and battles between veritable gods are fought. Where nations clash and ancient beings destory civilizations on whims. But unseen cogs move under the surface, events transpiring beyond simple understanding. Strange and powerful items called Artifacts have started to reappear across the land of Auren, empowering their wielders far beyond what cultivation can give. The Traezar Empire and all of Auren are on the precipice of war and strange beings have started to emerge, all with an agenda of their own. Chaos is brewing, and Kardin must survive it, all while trying to attain vengeance and understand his strange and anomalous Katra. ***Current Schedule*** I am currently releasing 1 3,000(Sometimes I end up writing waaaay more) word chapter halfs every week. If there is not some sort of notice as to why I have vanished, then I'm probably dead. Let's hope I don't die then, eh? *Ducks under flying knife* I own this cover, put my own blood, sweat and an hour of my time into it. Ahahaha! This story is inspired (I stress this word, as because most of the story is different) by Will Wight’s Cradle. I highly recommend you read it! (Please for gods sake, if you have something to say, please do it in a curteous fashion. I don’t need any more maniacs flying at me and trying to stab me with sporks, I am already insane enough to fill that role.*Winks*) **What is This Story?** Think cultivation mashed with western fantasy, put into a pot to boil and then drunk while it's pipping hot. All the while a mad man(me) cackles insanely over the pot, stirring. It draws from xianxia lightly, which means no exasperated angry young masters. No “genuis” or “prodigy” MC, one that is not OP, or anything of the like. If you don’t like cultivation novels, this might still be up your alley. MC focuses on “Life Shaping”, see poll 2 for more Info. Warning! If your are squeamish, that gore and traumatizing content tag is there for a reason. I shall dive into both bloody and disturbing scenes and the questionable ethics of manipulating life, and some of it won’t be pretty. With a dose of realism added in. I do add my own evi- I mean despic- no, sorry, interesting twists aswell. >:) Also, I HATE info dumps! *Steps out of the way of a charging semi* Still not dead! Arc 1 (Kindling): Chapter 1 - 13 Arc 2 (Metempsychosis): Chapter 14 - 29 Arc 3 (???): Chapter 30 - ??? A disclaimer, I am new author and am still feeling out my limitations. This story is my hope of bettering my writing skills and to have fun. Buckle up and enjoy the insane journey that is Katra. (Pronounced as cah-tra)
