《How Does One Become Strong?》Chapter 9- Benefactor?
Advertisement
"First off, bring me the carcass of an F- ranked creature."(Dark Dragon)
"Hmmh, that's actually going to be quite hard most F- creatures are tiny. Wait, why do you even... never mind I'll get it."(Jack)
Finally being released from the terrifying pressure I set off on my journey to find a F- creature.
"Okay Streak, since F- creatures are usually tiny and good at hiding we might need to split up. Streak, you go in the direction of the cave I'll go this way."(Jack)
"Alright."(Streak)
After watching Streak for a while I turn around and start my own search. I scan the soil and trees for any signs of creatures. After a while my eyes start feeling weird, I close them as an unbearable pain seeps in. It feels like termites swarming and eating my eyes as I can only stand and do nothing. I feel my eyes moving as if trying to burst out of their sockets. I fall to the ground scratching my eyes to no avail before finally the pain subsides and I can finally open my eyes again.
As my eyes open I see a completely different place from before. All around me I can see trails left by animals and where there was a battle which animals had passed by there. It was amazing.
[You have been given the skill perfect vision by 'Dark Dragon']
[You have gained the title Mentally Scarred as you have been the victim of unbearable pain]
"Damn, I feel grateful for the skill but did he have to send it to me like that? I nearly died"(Jack)
Once again looking around I see tracks of all kinds of animals. Ignoring most of them I search for a few particular ones. "Bingo" I say as I spot the trail of a small worm.

'That's got to be F- ranked right?'
Following the trail I find a small black worm.
[You have encountered the F- ranked Black Worm]
"Wow, what a creative name...not. Stupid Titans."(Jack)
I quickly bring my claw forward and stab it in the head. Welp, let's get back. I retrace my steps to the large tree that Drago is residing in. 'Yeah, I gave him a nickname. Problem?' Sitting outside of the tree is Streak chewing on a bone.
"Took ya long enough Jack."(Streak)
"Yeah, well there was a 'situation' so don't get arrogant." I say while glaring at the tree Drago's in.
"You didn't like my gift?" A burnt and decaying muzzle pokes out of the tree.
"I thought you said you couldn't leave the tree?"(Jack)
"Ho~, getting arragont are we?" He says blowing a small puff of air that throws me against a tree.
[-20 HEALTH]
"I gained enough strength to move a bit thanks to the mouse Streak brought."(Drago)
At that moment Tor stumbles into the clearing and falls flat on her face.
"What. Are. You. Doing. HERE!?"(Jack)
"W-well I was bored and I thought you might be in trouble so I came to save you." She says while looking at me with teary eyes.
"Why does it feel like you're suited to be some kind of heroic Prince? Anyways, I told you to stay there for a good reason. It's dangerous out here."(Jack)
"Hello? Tor."(Jack)
Tor suddenly drops to her knees and nervously says
"H-h-hello great benefactor."(Tor)
"HAHAHAHA. I knew there was something familiar about you little one. You are of the royal matriarchal lineage."(Drago)
"Okay, I feel like I am missing something here."(Jack)
"Of course you are. None other than the royal matriarchal lineage would know that I was the one who trained their founder. That I was the one who created their kingdom. Of course you are missing something."(Drago)

"Well, I have a question for you Drago."(Jack)
"I think you have something mistaken. You do not have the right to ask me questions. It is I who asks you questions.(Drago)
"Grrrr. Fine"(Jack)
"Good, at least you understand your place."(Drago)
"If I may, what is the reason our great benefactor is with this plebeian."(Tor)
"Ahem, We'll talk later Tor."(Jack)
"Heh, I like you already Victoria. Anyways, as I do not see anything wrong with telling this to the royalty of my kingdom I shall tell you. You see, all though this kid and I are centuries away in power still, I have been weakened greatly by the TITANS and banished here. The only one in this forest who I could ask for help to escape was this young boy."(Drago)
"May I join you in escaping? I have to get my throne back from my sister."(Tor)
"Hmmh, very well. I shall help you escape if you shall allow me one favor when you take back the throne. Deal?"(Drago)
"Yes!"(Tor)
"Hmph, I bet she just gained a notification saying [You have made a deal with the devil]"(Jack)
As such, we started our March to freedom.

The Rise of the Winter Wolf
What would you do if your entire life was suddenly changed at the drop of a hat? The entire population of the world that you were born into suddenly transported to another planet along with the rest of the intelligent inhabitants of the Milky Way Galaxy. A strange System talking to you about abilities and levels without a care for your opinions. Thousands of monster spawning dungeons placed around the new world without a care for the new inhabitants. And if those weren't bad enough, a forced invitation for one thousand random individuals to compete in a livestreamed competition within a dungeon with the rank of Administrator as the prize. You don’t know? Well, it’s actually pretty simple. You survive. Our story follows Wolf Adler as he, along with every other human on Earth, are faced with a strange blue box filling up their vision, warning them about an upcoming reappropriation of every being of sufficient intelligence to a new planet for the initialization of some sort of System. Will he perish in this new world? Or will he thrive? Except for the first 4 chapters, Book 1 has been moved to Amazon Kindle Unlimited. Except for the first 4 chapters, Book 2 has been moved to Amazon Kindle Unlimited. If you do not have the financial means to purchase the books, then you may DM me on discord through my discord channel for a pdf version of the book. There is only one main protagonist, but the story does have more than one perspective that it is told from. It's mostly first person from the main protagonist and third person perspective for the livestreams. The beginning of the story has also been massively rewritten since most of the reviews as of 1/23/2022. The release schedule right now is dependent on my college classes and coursework, but I always try to keep it to at least one chapter every other day, if not one chapter every day. I do not write sexual content or harem stuff. I am also not very interested in writing romance, so if you think you might see some romance, then you are probably wrong unless it's only a slight hint at romance or a slow romance very far into the story. Lastly, know that I don't like long-winding antagonists that get on everyone's nerves and last throughout the entire story. And I do like plot twists, so if you are predicting something that you think is going to happen later on that you dislike, (particularly around the middle to end of book two) then it likely won't happen.
