《The modern day plague doctor》Chapter 12
Advertisement
I wondered the forest looking for something that will attract things in the ocean. On the few occasions I was by the ocean I could faintly see way off in the distance something large surface and move with great speed before splashing into the water with such strength that the waves it made reached where I was. The things out there are big. I mean really freaking big. So I would need something as large as a dragon to cause 1000 battles.
Well more like 3 dragons. I won't fool myself into thinking that one carcass will make it through so many fights unharmed. Though finding a dragon is difficult but not impossible. I see them flying around occasionally but they are kind of small. What I need is another one of the dragons who landed on my roof. Though since I haven't seen one that size since then he must have been a special case or something.
I could use the tiny dragons but they are a bigger payout when they are bigger. After a while I decided to use wyverns since they are numerous in number. They are 1/3 the size I need but if I can get around 20 then they should get the job done. Though since my trip is coming up then I would have to hold off until after after that. I need a place for the fight. The water around here is put simply disgusting. There is so much trash and sewage around here that I don't even want to get splashed by it. I know it's been months since the sewers were last operating right and no one has been throwing trash in there recently but still.
Out in the middle of the ocean is a no go. The depth is too deep and I still don't know what's out there. I thought for a while before a idea struck me. There was a certain island 550 or so miles away. There is supposedly a great treasure hidden there and a whole tv show was based around it. My adventuring spirit has started to become active. Maybe I will find what many before me has failed to find. Now I just need to figure out how to keep the plant safe.

Maybe pile rocks on it and put it on the ocean floor. Nah, if just one thing crashes into it the plant will be destroyed. I can't go down with it and protect it since no matter how powerful I get I can't hold my breath that long. Maybe put it on a boat? Denied, all it would take is for something to think the boat is food and I can say goodbye to the plant. I went through more ideas that wouldn't work out before giving up.
I headed towards the ocean and looked out at sea. A giant shark half the size of the Empire State Building jumped out of the water. How am I supposed to keep a tiny plant safe from something like that. If only I had a certain shark killing sheriff by my side. But I am all I got. So what to do, what to dooo. I looked over and saw a old fishing boat. I linked that to fishing and had a great idea. I could put the plant in a safe, tie steel cables or something around the safe, and then toss it in the ocean. If something eats it I can quickly yank it to land.
Lately I have been getting pretty confident in my strength. But I would need strong metal for cables. I will have to get a blacksmith of rafsen to make that. I now have a plan to work with. It may not be the best plan but it's all I got. I need to find a safe, some metal scraps, and pack enough food for the trip. I also still need to make potions for that egotistical king. I may have to pull a few all nighters. With that done I went around looking for what I need.

No More Respawns
Synopsis: The first time Allen died, he was forced back into a living hell where death is temporary, and power is all that matters. With evil and depravity as the rule, tragedy becomes comedy and life becomes an act. Only a deal with a shady god can get him back to his old life, but what happens if there’s nothing left to save? Maybe hell isn’t so bad if you have infinite lives… until you don’t. Needless to say, it’s all fun and games until there’s no more respawns. Foreword: This story is meant primarily as an action adventure and secondarily as a dark and nihilistic comedy. It may not be readily apparent in the beginning, but that's what I have planned (I feel the need to emphasize the dark; don’t rage at me if it gets too ‘traumatizing’ or something). I’m going to take my time with this, so it won’t immediately inundate you with doom and gloom. This is also a comedy, remember? On that note, if for some cursed reason you just can't handle either the references or the jokes, I am willing to battle in the comments. Anyway, I still put a significant amount of effort into the system, so I hope you enjoy that part. It is a little bulky, I'll admit to that, but I wanted to try something new and its more fun when there's more depth to it. Regardless, I still have a lot of fun doing math in the middle of writing a fictional story (/s). I also want to see if I can keep from messing up the pacing. Many times, I end up going too fast because I'm afraid of the story getting boring, which tends to ironically have the opposite effect. I'm still learning I suppose; we'll see how things go. Lastly, please leave reviews and comments, they really mean a lot to me and (usually) help me improve considerably. I'll be asking for feedback in the polls and I do still check the old ones from time to time. Notes: The story takes a bit of time to develop; give it time if you're here for drama, grimdark, or antihero. The system is all blue boxes and I'm not half-assing the numbers. Chapters will be between 1k and 2k words usually. I always use the oxford coma, fight me. Might drop if rating falls below 4 stars, idk. It depends on how my life is going. Cover drawn by yours truly in MS paint. (I have skill, I know)

The Fire Within Can Be Scary
In a fantasy world similar to ours, magic worked similarly to physics, with each elemental spirit magic being tied to a state of matter. Earth is solid.Water is liquidAir is gas.Fire is plasma. Four elements, four states of matter. However in the ancient world of Hitarea, "Plasma" hadn't been discovered yet. The people of this world believe that only three states of matter existed, and thus, only three elemental magic could exist. For years, Earth, Water, and Air stood alone as the three main elements from which all others originated. Advanced arts like metal from earth, or Ice from water were only extensions of their original element . . . so what does that make Fire? Fire is powerful as the earth with its mighty explosions, flexible like water as it writhes around in the air, and swift like the wind. All at the same time. Fire, in regards to combat, is the most powerful element by far. This fearsome power is Alden's to master, but this power is a double-edged sword. One shouldn't play around with fire if you don't want to be burned. The fire within can be scary, you know?
