《My Hermit Life》Chapter 5 ( re-edit )
Advertisement
One day after Solomon became Aoparas student. During the day the group had visited ever being they were friendly with in the forest. From tiny sentient bushes to ancient sentient mountains. They even visited a floating lake that Solomon thought had a great sence of humour.
" Phew I think that that is all of our friends that are still in the forest, Cery, Beast thank you both for joining us in showing off Solo. "
" No worries Shie, Cery and I always enjoy hanging out with you two and now its more fun with nephew being around, plus it was more than worth to see everybodies surprised faces . "
" Well I thinks its about time we head off, you two can come visit when ever you want. "
" All right bye, you two and bye to you aswell Solomon. "
" Bye Aunt Cery bye Uncle Beast. "
While Solomon and his parents were walking home Solomon started thinking about some of the fantastical creatures he had met. His favorite of which was a Queen Harpy whose mountain the group had passed yesterday.
The mountain that the harpies were living on was bigger than three Mt. Everests from Solomons old world. The groups destination was at the top of the mountain, while walking up the mountain Solomon saw millions of bird nests big enough to fit an adult human male. At the top of the mountain was a nest that could fit a football field, the nest looked like it was made of entire trees instead of twigs. Inside of the nest was a massive bird with the face of a gorgeous human woman. That giant was the Harpy Queen who just so happned to be great friends with Solomons mother, Shie. They didnt do much other than talk with the Queen but Solomon did get to lay on her back and he almost fell asleep simply from how soft her feathers were. Apparently thats how harpies compete for mates, who ever has the softest feathers gets the first pick of captured males.

While Solomon was thinking back he remebered his master and decided to ask his dad more about him.
" Dad can you tell me more about my master? "
" Sure son, lets see where should I start, well for one your master is extremely old and powerful even by the standards of other Gods, to the extent he has seen many universes be born and destroyed even destroying a few himself. He has mastered many ancient and powerful magics and techniques and he is one of the few creatures to learn Dragon Magic without the bloodline of a dragon. Not many people have seen him use his full power and any who might have are most likely dead or have had there souls and mind destroyed making them nothing but a vegetable. "
" Wow, then why would he want to teach me? "
" Son your parents are two of the most powerful species of Legendary Beasts and even then we are both extremely talented individuals even by our race standards, so even if you didnt become a seperate Legendary Beast species you would still be extremely powerful in the future. So with you being a Tribulation Monkey who has a race skill even though you are the first of your kind which means you will definitely become a God as long as you are not killed early. Another thing is that your starting stats are at the level of a Lv1 Lesser Dragon after it has gone through puberty, dont let the Lesser or Lv1 throw you off Lesser Dragons can still become real dragons in the future so the fact that your stats are like this is truly insane. "
" Oh alright I will keep that in mind in the future, do either of you know when he will be getting me and if I will be able to see you guys often? "
" We have no idea son and we will probably not meet often so we should spend as much time together as we can. "

" Sounds good to me what about you Solomon? "
" Yes lets do that. "
After that the family of three spent exactly one month together, though to Solomon it felt like a day. Solomon truly loved his new parents in this world, he could feel the pure love radiating off of them even though he is a reincarnated individual. One day while the three were together outside of the tree house that is actually there house both of Solomons parents stopped and started waiting. Solomon knew what this meant so he also stopped moving around.
" Hohoho its been a while since I have visited you house little monkey, I still love the design. "
" Well Master you can visit whenever you want, and I would hope that Master likes it afterall it took me thousands of years to find the Dragons Blood Baobab, and it took even longer to grow the branches into a house that is livable. "
" I very much like that Shie used her Dragons Magic to make a natural formation using the ambient mana, its even perpetual, you did an amazing job with it. "
" Thank you very much Mister Aopara your compliments arent given very often after all. "
" Well lets get going Little Solomon. "
Solomon was sad to actually be leaving his house. Even though he didnt spend much time with his parents the three had truly built a connection. Before he left Solomon ran up to both his parents and got a hug and a kiss from both.
" I will miss you both and I will try to visit as much as I can. "
"" We will miss you to, now get going dont keep your master waiting. ""
" Alright Solomon lets get going it will be a bit of a trek. "
3 Days Later
" Alright Solo I am sure your parents told you about how I am very old, powerful, and knowledgeable right? "
Solomon nods his head up and down.
" Ok good then I will make a list giving of magics I will teach you, you can choose a minimum of three and a maximum of ten, here is the list. "
In front of me pops up a screen. Before I decide I ask Master a few questions.
" Master before I decide can I ask a few Questions? "
" Sure. "
" Alright then why is there a limit to how many magics I can choose and how did you make a screen pull up? "
" For one, one of the magics you might choose could take up all of your time and plus if i teach you to many magics you could be jumbled and not know which magic to use leading you to die in a fight, and even though I am teaching you and want you to live I do want you to have to struggle sometimes as that will give you a solid foundation for God-Hood something your parents would agree with. "
" But master God-hood is so far away for me. "
" So, you should know the Divine Domain is the total of all your experiences meaning the more extreme and impactful your experiences the stronger your domain will be. Anyway to answer your second question when you become a God this is one of the perks you get. "
" Oh ok Master then I will choose now. "

Sara's (not really) Fabulous System Armageddon, Book I: The World Ended at Rush Hour
Planet Earth, Monday, October 7th, 2019. 18:30 * * On a fateful day, during rush hour in eastern North America, Heavens and Hell crumbled and fell from their higher dimension on Earth. It came from "above" but not the same above we regard in our tridimensional Euclidean reasoning. No, it came from "above" as in from a higher dimension. Bits and pieces of those places fell on Earth from all directions, this time in tridimensional Euclidean space. Satellites, the ISS, and space debris all were wiped clean from orbit. Even those that didn't crash with the falling debris were knocked off orbit by the shockwaves. On the ground, power distribution lines were disrupted and most power facilities were left abandoned by their dead staff. Most of these had emergency shutdown routines that engaged in a few days. Some others had a survivor among their staff that followed protocol and activated their SCRAM switches, stopping the power plant. Long-distance communication disappeared the internet along with it. The world was plunged into technological darkness. Nine hundred and ninety-nine out of every thousand human beings perished immediately in the pulse of magical energy from the torn spatial boundary. Spirits were rent asunder and vanished, their fate neither salvation nor damnation, only oblivion. The criteria used for this culling was latent magic potential. It didn't discriminate against education, gender, age, or ethnic group. But of the around seven million survivors, most would meet their doom moments later. Those on moving vehicles, like the ones driving on highways suddenly had to contend with high-speed uncontrolled cars and trucks driven by corpses. Trapped in their vehicles and helpless, they became part of the long snake of crushed metal. Very few survived. Those in the air or out in the sea were alone and probably unable to control their rides. Airplanes crashed, and ships kept their course or drifted away, depending on their autopilot. Several ended their own lives in utter despair after seeing their loved ones die in front of them. Another large group would die at the hands of other survivors. Violence and aggression became the norm. Only a few sparse pockets of not-so-sane survivors managed to band together and cooperate for the sake of mutual survival. The sole survivor in a five-over-one apartment building in Georgia, a girl became the keystone to humanity's survival. Sara's fabulous System Apocalypse had just started. She has only one remark. It was anything but fabulous. * * Updates every Wednesday and Sunday.

Campaign: A Project Starfarer Sidestory
This novel’s lore, story and characters are entirely fictitious. Certain long-standing countries, institutions, organizations, agencies, and public offices are mentioned, but their histories and the characters involved are wholly imaginary. "What will you do with your freedom?"Growing up in a meritocracy, infamous for being lawless, Jordan Astros had been repeatedly asked this question, since times unmemorable. In a society where one's accomplishments and skills were tallied and ranked in order to determine one's standard of living however, Jordan quickly grew to understand that 'freedom,' was a reward earned by accumulating Merit. And so, after his 17th birthday, Jordan departed his Clan's habitat in orbit of Europa to embark on his century-long journey to rise from E-Ranker to S-Rank. And spread his name throughout the Galilean Powers. *** Campaign is a sidestory within its NanoPunk parent series, Project Starfarer. (Yet to be published. Be on the lookout for it!) In which the first transhuman known to humanity, the Starfarer, invokes a plan to seed terrestrial life throughout the galaxy. Campaign takes place around the middle of that timeline and explores the life of a key figure in that universe, Jordan Astros. And explores one of four great nations thriving in the Solar System during that time. A Meritocracy that spans Jupiter and its 79 moons, The Galilean Powers. What you'll find in Campaign: Brutal melee combat in airless and pressurized low gravity environments. A technology based progression system influenced by merit and accomplishments; using tech that's theoretically possible to exist in the near-future. An exploratory perspective of the dozens of Galilean societies, or 'Powers,' from Jordans; and sometimes others', POV. What you wont find: Romance. Harems. An MC who receives shortcuts, handouts, learns things unnaturally fast or has OP plot armor. Jordan is not a special individual. Jordan is not OP and he likely never will be. He's no different than any other citizen in the Galilean Powers and will certainly face as many defeats as he does wins. He'll suffer losses and grow as an individual, while the Powers evolves around him as well. This is semi-hard sci-fi/NanoPunk and takes place in a fictional version of our future solar system. Centered around technology that's plausible in the near-centuries to come. Everything abides by the laws of physics/thermodynamics (As best that I understand them, at least. I'm no scientist.) No artificial gravity, inertial dampeners, teleportation, FTL, or hand-wavy materials will be found in the Project Starfarer universe. Just advanced automation, nanotechnology, cybernetics and AI. Set in the backdrop of space. *I do not own the photo used for the cover*
