《The Endless War》Side Chapter 002: Noel
Advertisement
All it took was a single day to become a member of the Seer force. That was really all it took. It seemed so simple but also frustrating that he was literally carried by the man known as Yadon. The behemoth could sense his fear and just led him to an easy victory.
As he should. After all, Noel was basically royalty. His family was it, promoting the best that Terra had to offer and advancing this city into the Region of tomorrow. It would be just a matter of time before they gobbled up the number one Region in the world.
Of course, he didn’t even need to become a Seer since protecting the people wasn’t a concern for him. It was more suited to commoners who couldn’t really do much with their lives. But that never would pertain to him.
He didn’t know how the others would be celebrating if they even made it out alive, but he was having a five-star meal all to himself. Prepared exclusively by his personal chef.
His golden plate sat firmly in place on a fine wooden table which was surrounded by his numerous maids and butlers. The chef had made him a finely cooked steak glazed with honey and bell peppers.
His personal butler was busy at work cutting his meat for him before blowing on it delicately and then stuffing it into his mouth before assisting him with chewing by holding onto his facial muscles and guiding him through the process.
“Steady and firm bites, master Noel.”
“Mmmm.”
To believe I’d make it this far. I mean of course I would, it’s just I never thought I’d actually have to compete in the test. Perhaps I should have a talk with the captains.
Another butler promptly wiped the boy’s mouth with a red handkerchief. “There you go master, I know how much you like to keep a clean face.”

“Indeed I do. Good work. Alright, I’m ready for my next bite.” Noel demanded, well most of the words that came out of the male’s mouth were demands. He was very used to getting his way.
“Yes, master.” As instructed, he cut another fine piece of meat before guiding it to the boy’s mouth while the other butler helped him chew it very carefully, but soon he started to cough.
Everyone gasped after hearing this and one of the maids intervene, grabbing ahold of the boy to pull him back so she could pat his back. The added force caused him to cough louder until he was offered a glass of water.
“...”
“I’m sorry master… that was my mistake…” The butler started to sweat.
“You’re fired you waste of space. Collect your final paycheck and then leave and never show your face here again or by god you’ll never work a day in your life!”
The butler nodded before walking off a few tears sliding down his face.
If there’s one thing I hate most it’s incompetent people. Even with such a large sum of money being delivered into his account he still can’t do a simple job? Useless!
“I’ve lost my appetite.”
“What should we do with the steak master?”
“Throw in the trash. If it isn’t fresh off the stove there’s no point in consuming food.”
“Understood.” The maid went to grab the plate, walking down the hall and back into the kitchen.
“Mother and father couldn’t make it, huh?”
“Unfortunately not… your mother is working with Dimitri today on some new designs for the magic guns. Your father is-”
“Busy as always… well, it’s to be expected from such brilliant people. Making this world a better place to live takes effort. They’re the true heroes of this world and in time I hope the world will truly understand it.”

“Certainly.”
It’s always like this. I can always count on one hand how often my parents are home and around. They’re gone for most of the day and they only come home to rest their batteries. They’re like robots it’s unreal. I know they’re trying hard to fix this broken world, but still… I’m so bored. I always have to entertain myself with these morons. I can’t even remember their names… it doesn’t matter anyway… they’re not real people they’re just slaves to the money.
Noel releases a deep sigh as he takes a stand from the table and walks over into the large area which was his living room. He sat down on the red velvet couch, resting his head back on the cushioning.
His living room was spacious with a 60-inch flat screen TV mounted on the wall which was directly above a nice cozy fireplace. He soon put his feet up on the oak colored coffee table. Stressful days would be ahead of him, but there’s nothing money couldn’t do.
I’m going to show the world just how powerful money is. Everyone has a price that they can be bought with… everyone.

8 769The Supervillain Tries Playing Games to Relax
After yet another hard day of work, William Ainsworth, a National-Level Villain and the CEO of Hound Corporation is surprised with a birthday gift from his head scientist. The gift turns out to be a VR-headset, and after some convincing, William decides to try it, joining a fantasy-styled VRMMORPG alongside thousands of other players. In this new world where he suddenly isn't feared, he finds unlikely friends and allies, including such characters as Tin, a popular girl hiding her nerdier tendencies, Track, a NEET hidden away for the good of the world, George, a military field doctor trying to learn combat and Chrys, a Superhero in-training trying to learn how to fight. At first, William wouldn't consider these oddballs to be any important to him, but after being stuck with them for long enough, they might just let him melt his icy exterior. ------- -In a world where Superheroes and Villains have existed for only a few meagre generations, this story will focus on how a stoic supervillain comes to befriend people when he hasn't ever been allowed to get close to anyone. Imagine it like a sort of Boku no Hero Academia where the big bad villain is playing the same game as the kids, which happens to be a similar game to Legendary Moonlight Sculptor. The story will take place in both the real world and the game and these plots will interact and intersect. Characters will be fleshed out as the story goes along. Enjoy!

Sanctus is a Dungeon core on a remote island in a world filled with monsters and heroes. A world where people deal with demons and pray to angels, and a world where even gods know fear. Sanctus isn't just a normal core but also a demonic blade forged with angel's blood and trapped in the ground for thousands of years. Follow sanctus as it grows, and devours any soul foolish enough to die in its depths. This is my first story on Royal Road and I am using it as an exercise to become a better author. Hope you enjoy.

8 237The World of Arcadius
In the 57th year of King Kayan the Hunter’s reign, a heavy soul comes awake to a new world. Without memories or a name, the conscience of a young man is thrust into a conscious body of foreign origin with no sense for danger. Danger that can come from tiny talking balls of pink fluff, the hands of old men, and from within the ground as spears molded from earth. It is a dangerous world and our young soul has no idea as to what it is he must do to survive. Nor does he know his purpose. He must confront the world with the aid of those who summoned him. Those who wish upon him, a stranger, the goal of saving the world. A world coming undone by the powers that are beyond those of mortals; our young soul will be thrust amidst the conflict of it all. The balance of the world weighs on his shoulders.
