Advertisement
Author note: I have good news and bad news.
The good news is i'm finally done explaining the basic of this world and we can proceed the story. Yeeeeey!!!
The bad news is my holiday about to end. So the update might be once a week. At least i'm planning to finish the opening part before it end. The end is near!
A week had passed since the heroes came to Fruush village.
As the first week pass, Kevin, whose arm was burned black by Asche, got out from the cocoon.
“It felt like being reborn as a butterfly.” was Kevin’s impression when asked.
There was no after affect from his wound. From what Olwen told them according to the tier of the magic, even severed arm can be attached back as long the arm condition still good. However internal illness was impossible for magic.
In this world the common knowledge was magic for physical and medic for sickness. Pain and fatigue aside, it wasn’t even able to cure a fever.
Kevin who didn’t had any problem with his body also joint the training. His friend welcomed him with open arms.
There was no problem with that. However the night that day……
“Wait, there’s no room for me?!?!”(Kevin)
Night, after the men finish rinsed their body after the training, Kevin was left alone with no room to stay.
“I’m sorry but, unlike the others, the hooded lady didn’t pay for your room.”
Although Elfie knew the total number of the heroes, she didn’t immediately rent the exact number to save money.
In this world the money are divided into three, cooper, silver, and gold coin. Ten cooper equal to one silver coin, ten silver equal to one gold coin.
The stay fee for a night was three cooper coins. Of course it was small money but, for him who doesn’t have money he had no choice but to ask for it.

Kevin went to search for Elfie.
“Kevin, what are you doing here?”(Jane)
When Kevin was about to search for Elfie, he was called out by Jane. Behind her there were also the other adults.
“There still time before dinner. Why don’t you go back to your room and rest?”(Jane)
“Teacher, I don’t have a room. Lent me yours!”(Kevin)
“What do you mean?”(Jane)
Kevin explained the situation.
“Then I’m off to borrow some money!”(Kevin)
“Wait!”(James)
He was stopped by James.
“We can’t burden her anymore. Not only she already pair for our share, she also volunteered to the others selfish request.”(James)
“So you want me to sleep outside?”(Kevin)
Kevin asked that without any hidden meaning.
“No. We adults feel useless for not doing anything. That’s why starting tomorrow we will work to earn some money.”(James)
The adults who did nothing but, eat and sleep felt ashamed. Jane who took care of the children aside, the other four was useless. They can’t fight, their body too old to train, and their knowledge were useless here. They were
a burden.
At the very least they want to lessen the students’’ burden. After discussing it, they decided to work to earn money for living.
From the walking around the village, they already had something in mind. Finally the adults decided what they want to do.
For tonight, Kevin was stuffed into Icarus’ room. The next day Icarus had a black circle around his eyes.
After informing the students about their plan that morning, the adults started applying for a job.
At first the villagers were suspicious of them. However after a certain thought, they were accepted by them. That thought was, in a way they were the village savior from the evil demon.
Either because this was a fantasy world or the culture was around Mediterranean age, the villagers were nice and open to them. If this was modern world, the people wouldn’t accept a suspicious stranger like them to work there.

James chooses to work as a farmer. He didn’t know much about this world plant but, his parent work as a famer. Because of that when he was a child he help them to mow the land and stuff. He never thought that it would be helpful now.
Benedictus, the priest, chooses to teach moral and spread his religious. He who was old didn’t have any choice. It might later become a trouble when it makes contact with this world religious but, this was his only option. It was effective to earn money, food, and hospitality.
Boby, who was the security, decided to patrol the village and alert them when monster came. Even in this world he still choose the same profession. Strangely a notification sound rang in his head, and he earned his
additional title.

It was a joke or he loves his job, he once again got the same thing. The last one was surprising.
Markus, who was the long hair that had the image of gloomy janitor, became a blacksmith. It was because on the first day he went around the village.
He spotted a particularly different house then the other and took a peek. There he was discovered by a grumpy old man.
The old man was a retired blacksmith. He still makes a weapon but only as a hobby. The old man was also a man with few words. With that similarity they got along well, and Markus tried blacksmithing.
Strangely again, he also got his additional title.

Smithing: Blacksmith basic skill. When using hammer to smash a rock, blacksmith strength, vitality increases.
Markus doesn’t have any relation with smithing but, he gained that title. The condition of getting a title was more complex than the students thought.
What about Jane? She still baby-sitting except, with the extra of villagers’ children. As expected she didn’t get a babysitter as her additional title but, she got close with the villager because of this job.
Because of the interaction when they did their job. The villagers started to welcome the strangers who have difficult circumstances, and a good relation was made between them.
However because of the number of the student it was impossible for only them to support the other’s life. Soon it was decided that after the month passed the student would also work to earn for their living.
Nothing happened in that one month and the injured also got out from the cocoon without after effect. Well, except their hair...
The hair that got burned didn’t get heal with the cocoon, and everyone except Selia became bald.
That story aside, after a month passed incident started to occurred.

Bow of the North
In game of thrones i felt that the Starks received way too much hardships and tragedy. i know that there were vital points of story, and there were times these hardships were building points for their characters, but i feel when every member of a family has been either killed, raped or crippled then they deserve a break. In my story that break comes in the form of a powerful hunter/general from another world. I have no intention of altering the story to save every stark, or have them win every time, and some of my favourite characters may even be victims of this plot change as well. edited The main character, and there will be several new characters introduced to the storyline, will not just be some over powered guy who makes outrageous decisions that always work out (cough Plot armour) but will be someone that treats the world as a real world and has fears, doubts and is cautious in his decisions. He is susceptible to changing his mind and character traits depending on his experiences in this life. The story will primarily follow the plot at the beginning with some minor changes, and as more things change they will increase till the entire story is changed at the end. I am not copying the world of GoT exactly. cultures, politics and nobility may be changed or made up.

8 139The Pharaoh's Dancer
"Do you know what to do, Amunet?" A voice as sweet as silk whispered into the young girl's ear. Amunet didn't look over her shoulder, but shifted uncomfortably on her bare feet before nodding her head. A soft hand touched her back and urged her forward. All eyes turned towards the girl dressed in transparent linen with her dark hair tumbling down her back and her violet eyes lined by kohl. Every movement caused the jewels on her wrists and ankles to dangle and shimmer in the light.She raised her head and found the Pharaoh's transfixed stare. His jade eyes narrowed in on hers and the room became still and silent. Amunet bowed and, at the pluck of a harp string, began to dance.---cover by @AddietayDoes contain reference to some mature themes that may not be suited for a younger audience.
