Chapter 9: More Strangers
As it kept being dead silent I first would check the window in case he did not really leave, but I saw nothing, nobody was outside the house, or nearby as far as I could see through the window, it was quickly becoming dark outside, I decided to stay the night, and leave early in the morning since it was not safe to travel in the night with creatures and strange people with weapons running around, I would go back upstairs closing my room door locking it from the inside, the night went on peacefully, it kept being deadly silent all around the house before I knew it I woke up, it was early in the morning, I stood up opening my room door, as I would hear voices from down the stairs, it was the same man from the day before, but this time there were like five more men with him all in black wearing the same type of sword, one had a bow on his back.
I would quickly hide at the same place I hide before, looking down the stairs, as the man who took a sample of the blood before showed them the place with the blood on the ground, they all seemed to be very interested in the blood, I wondered why, and who were they? I did not trust them at all, I stayed hidden till they were all gone, after some hours they would leave the house, they took a lot of the blood with them, I had no idea why or where they were going to take it, but one thing was for sure I did not want to find out.

Deeper Darker
Set in the far future when humanity has reached the stars and finds it is not the first to do so. Alien technology has been left behind by a long dead race. Ancient cities, abandoned starships, temples and fortified bunkers all contain artefacts and devices far in advance of what humans have been able to produce. Technology that feels more akin to magic, so powerful it can allow a single person to dominate a star system. But these relics of another time have been left well-defended and behind bewildering and impenetrable security measures.There are those who are compatible with the alien technology, who can augment themselves to face the evermore extreme protocols in the depths of the alien ruins, and by doing so attain greater power. And there are those who just want to sell what they find to the highest bidder.The rewards are high, but you have to be prepared to go further and risk more to discover the greatest secrets of a civilisation that vanished long before the first human walked upright. Secrets that could irrevocably change humanity’s future, or end it.

The way to get status points were based on the way in Unlimited Power - The Arcane Path. Note: I'm only borrowing the way to get status points as I thought it was cool. I am an amateur author and am writing this as a cool hobby to get me through quarantine. If you see any grammar mistakes or anything, please let me know. Criticism is accepted, but don't use that as an excuse to just hate the book. If you don't like the book, tell me why so I can improve upon it. Cheers! Schedule: 1 chap a day
8 451There's Always A Catch
Measured, clacking sounds of high-heels can be heard walking towards an elegantly decorated hall; illuminated only by the sun’s rays streaming down from glass panels, grand frescoes decorating its concave ceiling. Two imposing guards stationed at the entrance saluted as she passed by, stopping before the foot of a raised dais. “My Lady.” She reverently said, bowing deeply to the woman sitting on the throne. Eyes lazily opened and a smirk slowly forming on her tinted lips. “So it's time.” ••••• How does one act when luck granted power unimaginable. To rule? Become rich? Murder? Decisions one makes have consequences. And there’s always a catch.

I won’t say this is a fiction, In fact it’s just things I suppose I need to put out there! Some things might be synonymous to a story, mainly my story. Interesting tidbits I’ve wrote down while high, sad or otherwise distracted in life. Hopefully it’s received well! This is for those who believe they are alone, you aren’t.
