Advertisement
[part 2]
Ray and Egbert finally find food stall in kyros, its not like human city where in Kyros there just some place one can truly say as restaurant from how human veiw it and most of they sell food on stall and other easy to construct building,
The owner of the stall seems female auger if Ray see her, the difference between male and female auger of course the different in height, if an adult male auger had range more than 300 cm in height then the female one is more small compare them around 270-280 as average height even that still high compare human standard,
Auger actually ferocious tribe, long ago they live in mountain caves and they usually choose the really highest one and rarely come to contact with people of the plain ,
Auger had unic trait and unusual appetie even for asmodian. some auger had four arms , some had twin big horn horn, sharp fang just like an orcs, but all of them had what they share as same that is black hard skin and usually with long black hair.
From the information ray gather, auger become this city ruler for few hundred years and someone say they had great achievement in asmodian against the human war thousand years ago when the chief of auger tribe lead ten thousand of his kind to the front line, as the prize for their brave and heroic act the demon king give Kyros to them.
“ur order” the female auger place three big pan fill with Kyros speciality food, some like armored boar meat hind leg, there black jam likely made from grapes, some yellowish soup, a bowl of fresh salad (mix with paper, cucumber, jicama, red onion, carrot, and tomato), some more unknown food and lastly two piece of big wheat bread.
“ohh seems good, come sit now Egbert lets dig in” just as ray said there not really different in asmodian and human taste of food, even if some ingredient came from southern country (outside night territory) doesn’t mean there is none in here, if fact the trade between kingdom already smooth even before the civil war erupt in asmodian land.
“...” even if Egbert had share the same table a few times with ray and began to know his master habbit, but because how they train him from how many years he don’t even remember he always know that he life only to serve krassuva family or to be excact ignanua risovo clan just like other clans warrior that rise with him, that make him unconsciously know where he stand in clan hierarchy.

“ come Egbert sit, you know that I cant finish all this dish alone right” if ray a normal human youth then he really no tell lies because the food the auger serve actually big size portion for at least ten man portion how human see it, but this youth can eat it leisurely even had two more serving .. no no even if the stall empty he still can eat but that if he want, and even if he don’t need to eat (that what he said before) but he love to eat.
“yes my lord”
If someone see the two of them one maybe guess that the two of them sibling where the younger cheerful brother want to please the emotional older brother.

*much**much*
“wow this is a good meal aunty” Ray give his shameful praise
“shishishi ur had great appetie bouy” the female auger only laugh at ray because its been a long time for her serve food to tourist (human is tourist in this land because there almost no good reason for them to came to this land).
“of course if its this delicious then im can even take the second serving after this hehehehe”
“if ur really want jus (just) tell I (me)”
after almost finish all the food in the table now ray finally ready to tour this demon city,
“good now that we full lets tour the city Egbert”
“yes my lord”
“actually I came here to search the former undead race”
“…”
“did you know anything about undead Egbert?”
“I had some knowledge of them my lord”
“right tell me what you think about them”
“as you will … undead race is one of asmodian or some people say them man of the dead, they actually not dead but the characteristic of them which they really had long livevity with almost idestructble body make them feared even in asmodian land, and the really make them really become fearsome race is because the legend of their deed thousand years ago where when the undead become demon king of asmodian and wage war with the world where they killed almost everything alive even the same race include the former undead race… at this time there two different kind of undead one can be accept because they make contribution to night land but one of them which classified as dead army, one of them is zombies race which corrupt version of undead and ghostly skeletal who born from the remaining of zombies body”

“I had read those in library but what is this zombies thing? I know that skeleton from long ago but this zombies race it’s the first time I hear it.. or maybe not dunno I forgot”
“... then i will try to explain it my lord... zombies actually a dark version of moving corpse my lord, some of them don’t have mind but there a case where zombie had a mind where they can think.. this variant which really different from most of zombies can control their brethren at some stage there one who call himself 'Lich' who take a name as controller of the dead, he can call upon their brethren and revive corpse to make dead army… this is why the undead race really dislike from almost all race even as part of asmodian just a minor of them who really can be tolerate where almost the other already extinct even in their own land”
“…”
“…”
“now that really a sad story for them”
Ray remember how he meet the undead race before, their appearance no difference from human and elves, they are smart race who like to collect knowledge and do experiment, in that days they had what they call life fountain who generate power for their whole race from the moon, even without that fountain they already strong yeah almost undefeated if you ever want to challenge them in their land, and in all demon race before they are the most rational race who want a bright future for their race and come to support their allied race when ray come to invade their land.
“ alright we should move for now, its still early and there still much time left before we back to Irvin”
---
Just when ray and Egbert began to walk from their seat there seems commotion in some table after some guy came to this food stall, even if one tell it’s a stall actually there more than fourty people who eat in this place right now (why you don’t call this restaurant you ask? Because the owner said its not)
“is there something happening sir?” ray ask the nearby asmodian who seems a marchant looking goblin who come to eat
“oh human huh, its rare to see human in deep of asmodian territory… not really your problem but if you really want to know because there a search party who seek a fugitive who do jailbreak.. they say there sixteen missing prisoner so if you want to be safe I think you should head to your place and wait it to cool down”
“jail break huh?”
“I warn you human kid, because we asmodian don’t want to lose face to other race even if there turbulence in our land right now so we don’t really want other race like you who seems like noble brat from human race to died in our land”
“…”
“what are you waiting for get loss!!”
After a few step outside the stall now ray can see that the city become more noisy or one could say alert after the news of jailbreak spread, sixteen prisoner, six auger, four goblin, one undead, two orcs, one wolf man, and lastly two human.
After ask to some other man now ray know actually there more than thirty prisoner who escape but ten already been capture the other twenty seems more dangerous then the other escape one and half of them actually former flying pirate who been subdue a few days ago by Kyros Army .
“wow this town really lively eh?,really different than the last town ”
Just as ray said in wuin kingdom there almost no crime there even if there any just some random pickpocket and some small fry thug who not even bandit, in asmodian land because they had civil war for three years right now the security become decline bandit, pirate, monster roam in some area terrorize civilian, lack of food and job in some part of the kingdom make crime spread more wide in asmodian land.
"right i want to climb that black castle, if i am remember correct thats where the fountain place before"
"lets go Egbert"

Outlook: The Stars (Consciousness Unbound Book 1)
The year is 2152. Rune Yahui is a nineteen-year-old failure, not having gained entrance to college or the military, with no significant prospects in life. Even worse, Rune is the poorest of the poor, hailing from the mega-slums of New Southern Chicago, the lowest pit of America. In a desperate last-ditch attempt to gain a future more lustrous than toiling the rest of his days away in abhorrent conditions in one of the near sweat-shop level factories that dot the megapolis, Rune signs up for the Virtual Citizen program, a program to cull the excessive world population by transferring just their brains into a video game. In a stroke of rare luck, Rune is admitted into the program and happily submits himself to the surgery and digitization process. Unfortunately for him, he wakes up several hundred years later than he expected... or does he? **Author's Note** This isn't a type of story typical to RRL. You may have noticed LitRPG in the tags, but it's a relatively minor element in the story until later. You may also notice Slice of Life is in the tags. This story is going to be slow and there won't be any power tripping until way later if at all. The focus will be on character development. That doesn't mean I won't still have action/excitement, however. I encourage you to give the story a try. Maybe it will be your thing, maybe it won't. Thanks for even taking the time to read this, and if you do give my fiction a try, I hope you enjoy it. If you don't, well, I hope you find something that you do enjoy. Happy reading!
