In morning, while I and Dina is cooking
""Good morning!"" Diane and Sheryl
""Good morning"" I and Dina greet back
"It’s seems something in you two change ... what's the catch? " I said
"hmm.. nothing its seem we just adjusted after, yesterday girls talk" Sheryl
"Well... its good because I keep thinking how to make you increase you're confident pfft*!" I said
"And why keep thinking about it?." Sheryl
"You know Kara and Nina really like to play with you but they might scare you so, I'm thinking if I lock you with a group of middle-aged look dirty adventurer would you increase you confident? pfft*"
"""huh?!"" The 3 shocks
"If you do that, I'm gonna have confidence to suicide...hmmf" Sheryl said while pouting
"I'm just kidding pfft*! " I said smiling
"If there's anything we can help?" Diane
"Sure look that…, mind to skinned it?" I said
"Sure, wait gonna wash my hand" Diane
"It sure good if we can maintain this don't you think?" Dina
"um.. but nothing stay forever, only my love to you.. " I said to Dina then she turns red.
"You always like teasing other.." Sheryl
"Because it’s fun, for example... how do you think about Gin?" I said
"Gi..gin? of course nothing..." Sheryl, she simply blushed
Diane, Dina, and I smile
"pfft* Diane what do you think about the princess*?" I said
"pr... princess... I'm normal you know.." Diane
Me, Sheryl and Dina laugh
"Hahaha see a simple joke can lighten up the mood, it’s stressful if I act mysterious and I can't do many things if I restrain too much" I said
"Well, you have a point..." Diane
"Do you remember in the castle, when I making joke, talking to you even though I look stupid in the eyes of higher-ups, it’s because I see Sheryl scared hugging the back of Diane the whole time, so it’s good that you cool down now?" I said
"Um, thanks" Sheryl smile back on her composure
"so, what do you think of Gin? pfft*!." I said again
She starts to pout with her red face.
After making a fun talk, we finish cooking then we prepared food at the table
""Good morning"" Kara and Nina
""""Good morning""""
"So Kara, why it feels like you didn't have a good sleep" I ask
"I have bad dreams" Kara said while looked sad
I hug her and stroking her hair
"What it is? Can you tell me?" I said
"I dream Nina and I ask Sister Diane and Sister Sheryl to play, they got angry with..sob*!.. us." Kara said while starting to cry
I look at them and smile
"Don't cry, you know sometimes dreams mean the opposite?" I said
"Opposite? Sob*!" Kara
"Um… you dream they can't be friend with you, but do you know, they ask me to be your friend?" I said
"We can be friends ?" Kara
"Um, right Diane and Sheryl?" I ask them with smile
"Um, from now on we are friends, right Diane?" Sheryl
"Right, it’s different if you don't want us to be a friend." Diane
"No! me and Nina, want to be your friends with Sister Era and Sister Mirna and Sister Dina, right Nina?"
"umm.." Nina nod
"So from now on, everybody is friends understand? " I said
""""umm""""
"you both really cute" Diane while hugging Nina, Sheryl hugging Kara
"Good morning! yawn*! " Era
"Good..good morning! " Mira
"""Good morning! """"

" pfft*! pfft*!" I laugh then
"What are you laughing? you're thinking strange thing again?" Era
"No, I just think of a scene pfft*! " I said
"Mind to tell it us" Era
"Look, I kidnap the princess, what if I ask the Queen as our guess for a week, what's the king reaction would be, don't you think it’s fun?" I said
Everyone nod except for Era and Mira
"The King will kill you" Era
"That's what more fun.. hahaha because he can't hahaha" I said
Everyone looks at me
"Fine... I will not do ... you're all no fun... hihihi" I said
"Good morning!" Kimiru
"Good morning Sister Miru," I said
""'"Good morning""" Gin, Tom, Mike
"Yo! You all sit now were going eat.." I said
"Why are you look down today, Jack" Kimiru
"Yo! I just planning to kidnap the queen to see the reaction of the king, its fun don't you think?"
""""No!!""""" the four shout
"What!!, you all like to bully me, even tom and mike... " I said
"Don't you do that understand Jack?" Kimiru
"Fine I will not do.. look here is her daughter number one informer hihih," I said
"Come let's eat, after this I’m gonna teach you how your stat work ok?" I said
Everyone nod
After we eat we go to lecture hall there's a board and a small table, then a group of chair surrounds it
After explaining things in
"There so many differences between heroes and us, their potential cannot be compared with us" Dina
"So if I have strength, 200, then I can have 30k damage right? is it powerful enough?" mike
"Yes and no, we'll base on old foggy I see before, the other old foggy should be maximum to 10k- 50k damage I'm not sure the magician maybe they are more but just a little! " I said
"So, weapon class is better than the magician?" Mike
"Why?" Tom
"I punch 30k, he cast a spell with long incantation, it’s also 30k? "
"You're wrong... stop thinking this angle ..." I said
"Why? What’s wrong I think mike is reasonable?" Diane
"I will ask a question, mind to ask truthfully?" I said
Everyone nod
"What you're planning to defeat? Each other? If Heroes vs Heroes I agree weapon class is a little advantage right?" I said
"Right..., I'm sorry." Diane
"If millions of monster beasts attack? You will whack a million, but mage will not cast a million spell, do you see the difference?" I said
"To be honest I don't have an issue if you want melee Mike, I'm gonna ask you to be anyway... Tom its good if you became damage type like Mike because the mage and priest doesn't need protection, they're gonna be stronger, besides they're not gonna be just priest or mage so self-preservation is not an issue
If you want mike and you can go to dungeon, if the two girl doesn't want and there's a map here 1-70 floor, monster list the weakness or the easiest way to kill them, just remember not all monster beast means bad you can see monster beast walking side by side with you but once you attack them they will charge to you, they just simply exist with a rules to follow,
I set teleportation rune each entrance of the dungeon, it will be easy for you to return, but easy forward, only up to 37 which has a safe zone area, this map is only our to use, or if possible I'm gonna give them up to 37 but that's all, "

"Why?, won't be easy to make all of them powerful, so they can help for the coming calamity?" Diane
"No,.. from 46th floor upward, it’s hard to see adventurer but still there are, but 46 below you can't see a neutral monster living do you understand?" I said
"What do you mean..?" Sheryl
"Because, it’s easy to plan them out" Tom
"yea, but that’s the problem, if they know there's a peaceful race loving inside of dungeon, it’s easy to plan them out" Mike
"Yeah, something like that, imagine group rank 10 and 9 plundered them? For benefit? So one of my plans is to put them under my protection too" I said
"The Kingdom will not allow that!!" Mira
"Relax, Mira he never said the kingdom will" Era
"yea, yea, I didn't say they will, it’s just a possibilities, and if that happens, ..." I said
"All dungeon visitor will become criminal in their eyes... next time they see one, they will not show mercy" Diane
Everyone understand that point, so no one refutes
"So, weapon rank, status, skill, dungeon information, well its good if you ask Gin to join your group, so he can protect Sheryl pfft*' " I said jokingly
"You.. you... hmmf.." Sheryl glanced to Gin and simply blush then talk with Diane
"Well, from weapon class, let say 30k damage plus 35% body enhancement, or any other buffs, and if the Lucky strike, it can also double your whole damage + weapon additional damage, imagine your damage is hundred thousand, with high attack speed would it be a superhuman , right Mike?" I said
"Yea, thinking about it, I decided to be weapon class, I'm not good at memorizing incantation, even it looks cool, I don't think it’s will suit me" Mike
"Yeah, not included the weapon class skill as multiplier," I said
"Um, really.., That's why the Elf back there is using sword, I always thought when it comes to elves they will be magician" Tom
"Yeah, I heard in 9 protectors all over the kingdom, 7 is weapon class," Mira
"Because of it easier than mages...?." Sheryl
"Before forget, one thing good for mages is, they can choose element to defend on the enemy, well example you attack a lava monster with fire of course it can decrease damage up to 20% or sometime 100% if your low int, but using ice can make your damage increase up to 200% or more, because their low resistance against it, plus weapon additional percentage, magic mastery on certain element, example ice magic, increase 50% each level, and a skill, example Icebolt skill, depend on around 100% or more, so it’s not the mage is weaker than weapon class, it just harder than them, even I choose mages, I'm using sword but I just swing it, with the way I want" I said
"So, that's all, if any question you can just ask, well later I'll start dungeon conquering" I said
"I have a question" Diane
"pfft*!, seems like you're question going to be interesting... pfft*! " I said
"Why did you choose mage?" Diane
"I said I have both, sword class and mages class, but I choose mage as primary because there's a lot of things you can do about it" I said
"About damage difference ?" Diane
"Heaven and earth,... That's the difference" I said seriously
"Heaven and Earth? What do you mean?" Diane
"Mike your thinking, if a mage and weapon class maximum damage is hundred thousand, It’s good to be weapon class because of its convenient right?" I ask mike
"Yes.. am I easy to read hehehe " mike laugh
"No, just my intuition told me that your tardy, pfft*! just you imagining memorizing incantation in an unknown language, makes your headache right?.. hahaha" I said, I and mike laugh
"But don't you know? We been talking 6 digits here since the start?" I said while smiling mysteriously
"So you're saying.." Diane shock realizing, what I'm saying
The four heroes understand it, Jack damage already reach more than 6 digit which makes them realize jack strength different to other protector levels.
"Yea, that's why I said I'm you're the greatest backer against the calamity,.." I said while smiling at Diane
"I'm gonna get ingredient on floor 52, Nina Kara, Mirna, Sheryl wanna come?" I said
"We're gonna travel!!" Kara
"'"Hurray*!!""" Kara, Nina, Mirna
"..hurray*!?" Sheryl shout wearily
"Don't mind it, it becomes their tradition just go along pfft*!" I said then we leave
After we leave
"Princess Mira...." Diane
"why? there's a problem and why there's a 'princess' we talk yesterday about it right?" Mira
"no. I'm sorry.. Sister Mira make sure your father will not become his enemy ok?" Diane
"why?... jack is strong but I never see him bully anyone?" Era
"No Sister Era, it’s not that. , Sister Mira don't let your father do something against him" Diane declare
"Why?. my father is the king, he is a good man, and he is one of the most powerful in the Kingdom, " Mira said
"No!" Mike said everyone look to him
"Because once the kingdom became his enemy, it will be a true calamity" Mike continue said seriously "And against him, we are truly doom to fail."
"Thinking about it, .. he knows the heroes arrival, all this thing we heroes doesn't know, he is powerful, which 6 digit damage, we hope to attain, cannot be placed in his eyes... what if.. he is the calamity coming, which will destroy the Kingdom.." Tom said
""NO!!"" Dina and Era shout
"He will never be, he is gentle, he's been good to us, never bully weak, even respect monster beast who never attack him" Era declaring
"Yea, Jack will never destroy the Kingdom, .. he .. just wants a simple place for us to live... to start a family that's we always talk about.. so never.. never will be" Dina saying..
"No.. he can, there's a possibility... a high possibility...." Mike
Everyone look at him again
"What if the kingdom is the cause of your death? won't he buried all living here along with the dead?" Mike said
"silence~~~"
…
…
…
"Well, we are not sure, maybe not, so don't worry about it, but one thing can avoid this is, Sister Mira, do not tell the possibilities Jack might be the calamity to anyone, including the King and Queen" Mike
""right"" Diane and Tom
"Actually we shouldn't talk this with sister Mira here, we might be the cause to trigger it' Diane
"yea I shouldn't talk about this with princess Mira..." Tom nodding while saying
"What do you mean?" Era
"Look, because we talk about this possibility with sister Mira, sister Mira will talk this to the King and Queen, then they will talk it to the council .. then what the council will do?" Mike
"Yeah, because they can't do anything to Jack, one thing is to hunt those close to him," Diane
"If that kind of accident happens, yes.... jack will kill the Council and the King, anyone who have possible related to it.. he will not show mercy for those who bully his person, especially us"Dina...
"Sister Dina is right, but not only that, he will become all race criminal, what worst he can become newest demon king, which make this whole kingdom perish.." Mike
"So we can avoid this, by not telling Mira to other this right? R…rright?" Era trying looking for a leeway
"Yea, but I guess, if that's really it is, Mira will say it one way or another" Mike
"No! I will not.. if calamity will start by me telling this, then I will simply forget this.. and that's all!" Mira said with determination
"Let's stop this talk, Jack is trying to stop the calamity, and he will not be...., let's just forget this ok?" Dina said then everyone nod

Ætla Verǫld
AV Online was just a flash in the pan—a harsh, experimental land which lost most of its players in mere weeks. Only the dedicated few remained, carving out their destinies in corners of the vast abandoned world. Lily Quinn wasn't one of them. With a career worth millions in the esports world, she didn't have time for a game like Avo—but when an exclusive beta test for the new version showed up on her doorstep, she couldn't say no… as much as she wanted to. Literally hooked into the simulation, Lily reluctantly entered a world beyond anything she'd ever dreamed of. Accompanied by seven other beta testers desperate to save their beloved game, Lily dives into a vibrant, beautiful world, where mystery and adventure waits around every corner. Despite her reservations, Lily finds a joyful escape in Avo, shattering her cold, hollow reality. It was just a game though… until the group discovered they couldn't log out. Trapped in a game with no rules, and surrounded by cutthroat players eager to kill for a quick windfall, Lily and her ragged band have no choice but to fight their way out, or die in a game that has turned all too real. Hi there! I'm setting off on yet another adventure, come join me :3 Unusually for me, there's only one perspective this time, and it's quite a bit more action-oriented than I usually write. Don't worry, though: everything's still as character-driven as always, and I never get tired of writing dialogue. Just to acknowledge it up front: this story is heavily inspired by EVE Online and the many stories generated by that world. However, since this is a fantasy setting, not sci-fi, don't expect any real parallels. Chapter publish rate for this one will be whenever I write them, as with Epilogue. I don't expect to move as fast here though, since it's not for NaNo. The plan is chapters somewhere in the 4k-5k range, and hopefully frequently. The Last Science takes priority as always though. Special thanks to Reaver and Ace Arriande for pushing me to get this going, and to all my fellow writers whom I've stolen from been inspired by. You're all wonderful people and I love you Quick reminder: Patrons get to read ahead of what's published! Also, try my other works: The Last Science — A Tale of Modern Magic Epilogue — A Post-Fantasy Psychodrama What are you still doing on the synopsis? Get to reading!

8 213Iron and Wood - A Tale Of Empire and Clans
For centuries, the Midlands had been split into fragments. A once glorious, united Empire has become a shadow of its former self. Unity has not returned, and not for the lack of trying. The greatest of these successor states were the Li Dynasty to the south, the rulers of old, and the Emerald Empire to the North, with its vibrant vitality. Unity is the end goal, and both will sacrifice anything to attain this elusive dream. For unity would surely solve the conflict that had long plagued this once prosperous continent. The Ironwood Clan was a prime player. Some would consider them the ones holding the reigns to the horse named 'Unification'. Iron and wood were the backbones of civilization; similarly, the Ironwoods were the backbones of the Northern Empire, and by extension, the people of the Midlands. Their methods, as questionable as they might be, had strengthened the North. Yet, were they enough? In the midst of it all, a young Ironwood who had lost his path must once again find his way. For the sake of his own wellbeing; for the sake of his clan; and for the sake of the Empire and its subjects. However, is he willing to sacrifice for the good of all? Is he willing to condemn some for the sake of others? Is he willing to make the right, albeit harsh, decisions? Only the heavens would know. Disclaimer: This is a work of fiction. Names, characters, businesses, events and incidents are the products of the author’s imagination. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental. Additionally, any views and beliefs expressed by the characters are not the author's own. The story is also not an endorsement of any actions taken within. The 'profanity' and 'sexual content' warning tags are there to be safe (and to leave room for potential future changes), but for now these two things are not inside this novel. This is my take on 'cultivation', though it might be somewhat disconnected from the general idea of the genre. Release schedule: Two chapters a week. The cover was created using wombo art. While I believe that creations using the app are in the public domain, if that is not the case, I will take it down.

"What does one expect from caves? Normally, that would entail something like bats, guano and insects in narrow passages, ones that needs to be squeeze through? But...
