《Aris Cretu》Chapter 10: Outfits and Opinions
Advertisement
You are tempted to splurge on a flashy green and orange silk shirt, but then you consider that you are also paying for the shopping spree of three women. Better to stay simple, keep my costs down. You select a sturdy pair of leather boots, a pair of tan pants with reinforced knees, and a dark blue tunic. Wouldn't do to get this all muddy. You also pick out a rainproof cloak, and can't help but grin when you automatically pass over the brown and green ones to pull a black one in exactly the right size from the back of the rack.
You turn when you hear Talae whistle, beckoning you over towards the women's section. Now what could she want? you bundle your selections under one arm and follow the sound. You spot Aflia headed for a section in the back, but Talae all but pounces on you, and Little Bird stoops soundlessly out from behind another rack. They each grab a shoulder and drag you deeper into the racks, nattering away about fabrics and styles and cuts and a dozen other things you can't keep track of. Eventually you dig your heels in. "Alright girls, What's so important that you need my opinion?"
They promptly go silent. Talae scrapes one foot along the ground, "Well..."
Little Bird bobs her head, swallowing a laugh. "Talae doesn't know much about surface fashions. I've already made my selection," she hold up a set of neatly folded clothes, "I'll need to alter the tunic for my wings, of course. Could you guide Talae, help her make some reasonable selections while I go see about getting that done?"
Reasonable? What could she mean by that? "Sure Little Bird, I can do that." Little Bird promptly flutters away, leaving you with a flustered Talae. You cock an eyebrow, and Talae looks down at her feet. "Now what did she mean by that?"

Talae slumps a little smaller. "Lets just say my picks were better for a temple then a street and leave it at that, ok?"
Kuko worshiper, right, so probably something totally inappropriate. That would draw lots of male attention, all of it unwanted, and tick off a berserker in the doing. Woe onto the fool who rouses her ire! "Ok, I'll leave it alone. now lets see what's available..."

But life as Death's apprentice isn't all about strewing flesh and painting blood marks. It is about being a soldier of war against demons and being hunted by exorcists.

The discovery forces William to either become the great magician who saves the people or the one who casts death upon all.

8 70Once you go Wuxxia you never go back. [Not a Parody but moreso a revised wuxxia.]
Robert Nord wakes up from a deep sleep, one he regreted to ever take. Instead of waking up to his well-known, stark, eggshell-white ceiling, atop his luxurious 800€ mattress with down feather duvet and fluffy cushions, he finds himself staring at molden planks of wood, a stench of sweat, blood and iron mellowing in the air. A world of swords that sunder oceans and fists that crack mountainsides. This is a world known throughout the dimensions, a world of wuxxia and xianxia. (This fiction will be parodying many a wuxxia and hopefully do a good job with it. Not only will I try and stress the most ridiculous down-sides of wuxxias but I will also take a shot at making it enjoyable while I'm at it. And don't be fooled by the Lit-RPG tag, after all, every MC needs his secret weapon, regardless how much they try to deny it.)
