《The vengeful invoker》chapter 6- The first battle
Advertisement
How strange, if I remember correctly in the information I got from the waves essences the color of my electricity should be golden not this azure like thunder.
“What a nice color~ Master is this electricity?”
“You can tell?”
“Mmmm! Is because I am a thunder-beast so I can identify thunder energy but this thunder azure thunder… I feel like is purer and richer in energy that a normal thunder, How mysterious~”
“? Well, let’s test it our later, for now, we need to get some food”
“Master, master~ if you are okay with it can you give a little bit of your electric energy, just a tiny bit~ please, please~” said little lightening with a pleading face
“Sure”
I concentrate a little bit of my energy and passed in the form of a tiny ball to lightening
“Is too much master, I feel this could hurt me, its need to be smaller~”
“How much?”
“Half of it~”
“Okay”
I concentrate and cut the ball in two halves, one return to my hand and the other went inside the mouth of the little fellow
“Waaaaaaaa~ this is SO GOOOOOOOOOOOD, Master it's too delish, thank you~!, but as I suspect It will take a while to convert all the energy, I fill so full now~” said the little fellow with a satisfying face.
“Let’s go we need to hunt some beast and get some water”
Little lightning transform in a stick, I Pick it up and then I began to advance through the forest.
[Two hours later]
I arrive at the edge of a river and drank some water, now that the water problem its solved I need something to eat.
Just when I was thinking where to go hunt, I heard a sound
Ka,ka,ka,ka,ka

I hide in a tree and so from below, I saw a huge bird that was hunting some fishes.
The huge bird had golden fur and a red pick, it also has two thunder-like patterns eyes.
It was a sparkling-crow.
A thunder beast that was at the level of teacher magus.
This is an opponent that I Can’t beat.
Although beast doesn't receive a blessing and doesn't cultivate, they naturally absorb the essence of the world in their core.
Si they can use magic.
This crow has the thunder and the wind elements at the apex, so someone like, who does not even have 1 element at the apex can’t beat.
But I want to fight, something inside me tell me that I should fight it if I can’t beat it then I can run.
I look down at the crow, that is slowly eating, and make a plan
[5 minutes later]
The crow is almost finishing eating and is picking his last fish.
I noticed that when this crow is eating, it closed its eyes when gobbling the fish.
So now is the time
I jump from the tree and I electrify the stick and press it into the water.
The electricity amplifies in the water and travel all the way to the way to the crow
Zap, zap, zap
[Ka!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!] the crown produces a painful scream and look at the source of the thunder, me.
Its eyes were bleeding then it flows directly to me.
Its eyes flash with a spark and then it opens its beak then from its mouth an electric ball was thrown!
I jump to the side but some of the sparks touch my arm.
I feel like all my arm went numb and some of my skin was burned.
“Master this is dangerous we need to back up”
Advertisement
“Not yet, Look closely the crow was badly hurt in the last engage it can barely stay in still”
Like I said the crow was barely able to stay still it eyes were bleeding
But I wasn’t better, I couldn’t feel my left arm.
“It’s time to see how much is the power of this azure thunder”
I concentrate and electricity appears in my hand.
Zap, zap, zap
The golden crown looks at me and produce a cry
[kaa!]
Then is wings produce a wind-like armor.
Then it flew directly at me.
I concentrate all the electricity in my hand in the stick and went toward to meet the crow.
I raise my stick and hit the crow wing!
[Kaaa!]
The wing fell off but, with its other wing, the crow produce a wind slash And it hit my back.
A line of blood appears in my back and because of the impulse, I flew a few meters before hitting the ground.
My all body hurts and I could feel the taste of blood in my blood.
But for some reason, I feel good.
This is what I wanted!
Power!
The absolute power to destroy my enemies!
In the past, when I was an apprentice I couldn’t have injured this crow and most likely I would be dead by one of it attacks but now I can fight with it even If I am not an apprentice magus.
“Master your smile is a little scary~”
Smile?
I touch the corner of my mouth and actually I had a small smile on my face.
What a curious thing indeed.
The crow, with only one wing, stand up and look in my direction I see it and it concentrates electricity in his beak.
I can’t produce the sufficient electricity to charge the stick so I just electrify my hand
I let the stick in the ground and run towards the crow!
BAMMMM!
An explosive sound could be heard while the beak and my punch clash other!
I was sent flying while my hand was bleeding.
While on the ground I look up and the crow was lying motionless on the ground, I could see that his beak was destroyed and its fur all over it body was burned.
“Haaa~”
I make a little laugh and then fainted.

Sword System Academia
2/17 NOTICE: I'm putting this on hiatus, possibly permanently. I didn't want to spam with an "update chapter", so hopefully here and in the story blurb will get enough eyeballs. There are a couple reasons for ending SSA for now. 1) I wrote the next chapter but wasn't happy with it. I've been less and less satisfied with SSA's quality the more I thought about it. Part of the reason is... 2) I am seriously thinking about trying to publish some novels to help pay the bills, since I don't have my other source of income anymore. I have never asked for anything from SSA readers, no money, not even a review or rating. SSA is written for fun to amuse myself, primarily, and I would kind of feel bad actually charging someone money for something as unserious as that. I don't think it is good enough to ask anything in return. To use an analogy from music, SSA is more like a jam session with a bunch of friends. You're just chiling and having fun playing some music. I mean, if you are Mozart or even Eminem, your jam session is good enough to sell, but for an amateur beginner like myself, haha, no. If I want to publish something, I feel like I need to go the proper route of practice and rehearsals, which might be more similar to a classical concert performance. With SSA, I work from worldbuilding notes and a loose outline, but what you are essentially getting is the first draft with lots of so-called pantsing. Pushing out a web novel like this also means it is very difficult to go back and improve things without breaking everything else downstream. I wanted to try this "jamming" approach, as it was a good way to teach me about another aspect of writing, but to move forward, I think I need to hone my "classical" techniques, which emphasize rewriting, or at least, revising outlines. 3) While I intend to try to make $$$, my actual current goal is to "get gud". I've spent a lot of time recently trying to understand the self-publishing industry, and I'm pretty sure I can make some money by using short-term strategies with my current amateur skill level. But I've seen too many authors come and go/burnout, and really, the only way that I think I can enjoy writing and still make money on a long-term basis is to become a better writer. And the next step for me, which I haven't done much before, is to spend more time on rewriting and outlines. That is pretty much antithetical to the way SSA is developing. I've always been kind of 20/80 plotting/pantsing, but I want to spend a lot more time outlining before I even start writing. SSA jam sessions don't really fit my goal anymore. If you're curious about what's next, read on... Among other regrets, I regret not finishing SSA. It's the first story I've dropped, but then again, it's the first web novel I've attempted, so I suppose that's not a surprise. I don't think traditional web novel formats suit me that well. The whole SSA story I had loosely planned (beyond a first book or major arc) is way too large as well. Big story = good for neverending webnovel with Patreons, bad for penniless and fickle writer like me. I am currently outlining a complete trilogy to another story in great detail. I want the story to end concisely, and I also want the chance to really spend a lot of time on the full outline to spot pacing problems, character issues, lost themes, and so on. I'll still share this story on RR. What I intend to do is finish book 1, flash-publish the whole thing here for a few weeks, then publish on the big Zon. Repeat for books 2 and 3. The upcoming story will be about crafting heroes. The backdrop is an isekai-like setting, where elves will summon humans to their world as heroes, but the whole hero crafting business is still in its infancy. The elven mage researchers are figuring out how to imbue heroes with power, while the heroes are trying to figure out how to use the powers that they gain. Humans are the best hero templates because they are blank and have no intrinsic magic. Or at least that what the elves thought. The human MC has his own secrets... There will be some similarities with litrpgs, but I would call it more a progression fantasy or gamelit story. For example, the stats are very low, at least initially. Say we have a stat called Str. Going from Str = 1 to Str = 2 is a huge deal. Also, going from Dex = 0 to Dex = 1 is an even bigger deal. I guess you could call it a "low-stat litrpg", haha. Also, the heroes won't be gaining stats simply by killing things or leveling up. You can't increase stats arbitrarily, either. There will be rules to how stats can increase, and how they work with each other. The elven mages will be figuring out these rules in order to craft stronger and stronger heroes. Some inspiration will be from cultivation magic systems, but there won't be overt cultivation, at least for now. A theme I really want to explore is the idea of interactions. That includes things like hero crafter vs hero, tactics vs strategy, skill synergies, racial interactions (dwarves, elves, etc), and son. Yeah, so hero crafting. I'm super excited about this project and venturing into publishing. If you want to check out the upcoming story, you can follow my RR author profile to see when it drops here. Finally... THANK YOU TO EVERYONE! I'm very sorry that SSA is stopping, but I hope at least some of you will find the next story at least as enjoyable, if not more. Thanks to all the readers who gave SSA a shot. Big hug or solid fistbump to all of you, whichever you prefer! I hope this message is not a downer but an upper, because I am psyched!! -purlcray -------------- BLURB: Talen, youngest Master of the Koroi, makes his way to the Empire's capital to salvage his clan's fate. But the bustling city has few opportunities for the traditionalist. For the old sword clans are fading. With the rise of alchemy, gold can purchase strength that ordinarily took years of training to cultivate. Sword artists, once rare and accomplished, are quickly growing in number, especially among the wealthy noble class. Even with such alchemy, though, no one has advanced to the rank of Grandmaster in countless years. Talen's true dream is to walk the path of a sword artist to the very end while fulfilling his clan duties. And then the Swordgeists return, fabled founders of all sword arts, gods who had touched the world long ago and vanished. These myths turned into reality warn of a coming threat. Alongside this warning, they issue an invitation to the Sword System Academy, a path to power beyond the mortal realm. But first, they will hold an entrance exam... Story notes:Sword System Academia blends elements of western and asian fantasy such as xianxia and litrpg. I took parts from different genres I enjoyed and twisted them into my own creation. There will be an explicit system, both of the litrpg kind and the hard(ish) magic kind, but it is embedded within an academic structure that will develop over the course of the story. This is my attempt to design a unique type of system, the System Academia.

What if the world was an RPG?
What if the world turned into an rpg? Throughout my entire life I always dreamt about magic, fantasy and otherworldly stuff that could never exist in my world.I would constantly daydream about being a hero in another world or maby a demon king in another world. Not only would i dream these dreams for years on end, but i would also ask myself questions such as "what would happen if people got superpowers" or " What if there was a RPG-system that gave you a class and powers and so on". These were just some of the questions i would ask myself on daily basis, well rather than to ask myself questions about it. I dreamt about it, I wished for it and i begged for it, but to no avail. So what was to come now, when a bluescreen suddenly popped up infront of my face and my surroundings turned to white.

The book of forever
An experimental diary of sorts recounting my life and experiences, written as a slightly whimsical scifi story about setting off from the past to unknown lands, rebuilding from nothing and finding myself again. The first section of the book contains matched chapters, a chapter for a interlude, both happening at the same time roughly The second section of the book contains more one off stories as we follow one of the travelers explore their heart as well as a unknown land, growing in the process. All of the text here was written in 10 syllable chunks, this reads like a epic of sorts, just with more philosophical focus and POV jumps. Hope you enjoy! >Updates may be sporadic as I only write when I have something about myself I want to share The chapters can all be read individually, although there may be some crossovers between them they work as single poems. You start at whatever chapter you want since these are a collection of roughly connected poems (although you'll notice tie ins and references to eachother)

He had trapped me, his scent overwhelming my senses. I closed my eyes as he got closer and turned my head away. His lips connected with my jawbone instead, he made the most of it and trailed tiny butterfly kisses down my neck and collarbone. He smiled faintly at my gasp of reaction, he lowered the other one to my face and gently pulled my face to face him. He skillfully closed the gap between us devouring my lips and stealing all my ability to think. Without giving a second thought to what I was doing I arched my body into his and kissed him back.He let go of my trapped hands so his could go other places n i pulled him closer."I love you my angel",he said in between the kiss...."what !" ,i asked!.."I SAID I LOVE YOU ANGEL",he replied.I pushed him with all my force..."Angel Please...just please",he said weakly......"Leave Aadi , NOW", i shouted and turned back..through the side window i could see he had tears in his eyes!!*********#32 in general fiction on 10-11-15
