《The Blood Mage》1 - When a frog flies (Almost Useless Chapter!)
Advertisement
First of all, this chapter doesn't relate to the later fiction at all. It's like a pilot episode really, where it gives the main idea about what the fiction is about. You are totally fine if you didn't read this. Also, the quality sucks. Adios~!
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hmm hmm hmmm, hm, hmm hmm hmm.
Ah, you've must been wondering what song is this? Well, I forgot about the name, but it's about a mother banished from her home with her baby child. The song was about her lullaby. Telling her son about the hardships of the world, to always be strong, to never cry and whatnot.
It was such a sad song. I cried the first time I heard it. In fact, I can hear it right now, playing it's tune. Oh god Im tearing up.
Well, lets assess the situation, you see, I died recently. It's because I drowned, well, not purposely, some people had a slight grudge on me. But the world can be cruel sometimes, so I'll just let it slide
*sniff*, ah, the song isnt stopping. I wish I had a mother like that. Lets have a bit backstory, shall we?
My mother wasnt lucky in her office work. She had this, revering beauty that would catch any man's gaze. Several men couldnt take it, and at one night, they ganged up on her. She conceived me that night. After that, they blackmailed her to stay shut. My mother complied, but her sanity got, blurry? Yes, a bit blurry. She brought me with her to another country. And we lived happily ever after.
Haha, actually, no
As her mind was a bit broke, when she got back home after her new job, she would sometimes imagine me as one of those men, and injured me. It wasnt frequent, but it wasnt seldom. I stayed with her though, I felt somehow responsible for her. Like it was my duty to heal her.

Isnt the song going to stop? *sniff*
At school it wasnt any better. As I disliked the people who forced themselves upon others, I stood up against bullies, naturally, I had no one to aid me, but that was fine. I got better at fighting after a couple of years. Eventually, no bullies were present. Or, they were just good at hiding. When it was time for my graduation, they sized up against me, brought me to a nearby river, took turns in beating me into an unrecognizable pulp, and pushed me into the river. Since I couldnt feel my arms to struggle, I let the cold embrace of Death comfort me.
I felt no attachment towards the world by then, as my causes towards my mother lessened day by day. It was partly her fault, partly, if she stopped hitting me everyday after work, perhaps I would still love her. But now, its just annoyance.
And that was the end of my life.
I know my backstory was a tad short, but I cant remember much, as it wasnt a pleasant experience.
And now we're here. In a pitch black space, kinda reminds me of some light novels where the protagonist got reincarnated into a baby, or the other web fiction where a powerful divine being reincarnated the protagonist to become it's champion and whatnot.
I dont see any light, so perhaps this is life after death. If so, this is boring. Ah wait, the song stopped playing. I want another tune.
*tune plays*
Nice. It's a sad tune, but its slightly happier than the previous.
-Time Skip-
Dont know how many years have gone by, but Im still the same, stuck at 18. Its nice here, you could practice swimming, singing, dancing, walking, runnning, pretty much anything. I can feel my body, which is comforting.

Various songs played in my head, I didnt turned insane because of that.
-Time Skip?-
I would probably have a beard by now, but it seems Im unaging here. I want a beard to stroke, it makes me feel.....wise.
-Probably a Time Skip-
Oh god, the songs are the best. Normally you would feel bored listening to them for several dozen years, but I dont, they're my only friends here.
-Skipping Time-
Im doing my daily jog, when something happens, its.... the next song!
-Time Dash-
Hmm....I just noticed this after so many years, I didnt needed sleep. Strange.
-Piks Emit-
I ponder through mankind's advancement, humans are fascinating. Some of them anyway.
-A Marathon of Time-
I remember one day, at my birthday, my mother brought me a cake. It looked lovely from the box, but surprise surprise, there were worms inside. I got admitted to the hospital after that, my mother proclaimed she was innocent. And the case was dropped. Such a perk to be a beauty
-Yup, a Time Skip-
I have a knack for intuition, if I guessed something, theres a seventy-five percent chance that my guess is correct. And now Im using it to guess how much time Ive spent here. About a thousand years perhaps? Give or take a few hundreds.
-Almost there-
I feel something is coming, and its gonna be awesome. My sense are tingling. Im sorry.
-Shame on you-
The songs are still playing. And Im running out of thoughts. Great.
-Almost almost there-
I feel...sleepy...agh...its a sign.....Im gonna..nap for a.....while..
-We're here-

Savage Hunters
Giant monsters roam the land Civilization is frozen in a savage age. For the beast slayer Alden, power and survival are one and the same. The ancient evil that once ravaged his village and murdered his ancestors has returned. At the same time, politics hurls Alden and his crew into gladiator pit battles for control of the throne. When Alden takes possession of a cursed sword promising untold power, the hunter is determined to save his people by slaying every giant monster standing between him and the throne. But the angry ghost trapped inside the blade has other ideas. Buckle up for the brutal LitRPG ride of a lifetime Savage Hunters is an alternate-world neolothic fantasy. Characters grow their powers with explicit stat blocks presented right in the text, including levels, attribute scores, and unlockable skill trees. Experience is accumulated by battling enormous monsters the size of buildings. Political intrigue and romance elements ramp up as the series progresses. I originally wrote this story after playing Monster Hunter with my niece. She was 12 at the time, already an avid reader, and wanted to read my other published books. I'm a licensed psychotherapist specializing in severe trauma so I tend toward darker fiction. I told her my usual books are too brutal for her but I'd write her something special. The result was this series, which has been praised by both teens and adults for its depth and universal appeal. It begins with an emphasis on cultural elements because I consulted with a trained anthropologist to craft this neolithic setting down to exacting social detail. After these opening chapters, it rapidly shifts to an action-packed adventure. The first 3 books are fully written as of November 2020, totalling approximately 69 chapters. The first book has been professionally edited already. The following two books require some editing which I'll do on a chapter-by-chapter basis as releases progress. I welcome reviews and comments. Writing is a passion, and reader engagement makes my labor all the sweeter.

Shadow Knight
MAIDEN TRILOGY: BOOK 2 Devorah Kempenny is small, slight, and sickly. Her aunt, the Governor, insists that she learn history, politics, and economics in preparation for some mysterious purpose. But Devorah would rather read novels and dance in the rain and while away her time wandering the dusty old library. When she's summoned to Fort Shepherd, Devorah learns she may well be the secret weapon her aunt expects her to be. Soon, she finds that swords, shadows, and necromancy are hers to wield with ease. SHADOW KNIGHT is the second in the MAIDEN TRILOGY, a fantasy-epic, coming of age, hero's journey. It is my second novel, written between January 1, 2011 and July 21, 2012. The novels in this trilogy take place concurrently rather than consecutively.
