《Reaper's Grimoire》A friend? Ch.4
Advertisement
After spending hours hunting rat I leveled up quit a few time but dang rats keep coming like there is no end. Some more hour later I manage to find out that the dang rats are coming from a hole in the ground near the defense magic circle under the the tower. Speaking of which I manage to find out more about the tower, the tower is made of 12 floors including the 2 underground floors with one containing some broken tools, weapons, etc. from the years Merlin lived here. The second one is under the other one it contains the spell circle and the mana source that power the circle and every experiment Merlin ever did.
'Well I would have never found the second underground floor if the rat didn't keep coming under the a specific area of trash.' After killing all the rat on the top floors I gone under the trash pile entering the second underground floor. The first thing I saw is a huge pool of the glowing blue liquid thing that is flowing around in me with several spell circle in it protecting the tower. The second thing I saw? well it's a grimoire floating above the liquid covered in a blue coating of mana crystal draining the mana core that powers the circles and the tower.
The first thing it did after seeing me, is to drawing spell circles that summons rats to try and kill me. Using my blade I cut off the head of the rat nearest to me and started to move towards the book, after killing few more rats I notice that a few of the rat body didn't turn in to dust and dispersed like a summoned being would but instead it's organs and or headless body are laying though out the floor. 'It seem like the book is a evolved one but extremely hostile with the ability to summon and tame rats to attack me.' While thinking about that a rat managed to sneak up on me and knocked me into the blue liquid with it, but instead of dropping to the bottom of the pool the area around the rat started to bubble and covered the rat. Soon after nothing but bone started the drop to the bottom.

I would love to say I'm immune to the liquid but the liquid is also starting corroding the dark steel that made up my body's defenses. Noticing the liquid's corrosive properties I quickly started to move towards the wall of the pool and started climbing up using the stones that made up the pool as a foot hold. When I finally made it out my armor was almost completely gone. With my blade now useless I started to use Golem Creation using the liquid as a materiel because of how fast it can kill the rats.
I used the most simple and mana conservative method I have to create my army a blob of liquid or in other words a slime. There is no other way to describe the thing I made it's a blob of blue corrosive liquid that seem to melt every thing it "eats". With my slime army I manage to kill the rats and clean the floor of blood and gore.
The floating grimoire noticing it's army of rat being destroyed started to a even bigger circle. Well you would think he will abandon summoning rats but nope he just summon a bigger rat. The bigger rat is about 10 feet big and 20 feet long and have white fur instead of black with a crown I think on top of his head.
While all that is happening the floating grimoire lost track of where I am and started to look for me. I was in the liquid slowly moving toward the rat loving book when I am finally directly under him I used Golem Creation and made a golem with a plank like shape to bring my up. When I am only a few feet away from him, he noticed me and started panic and called to giant rat over. Which is by the way half covered in my slimes with it's bone starting to appeared.

With it only being under a feet above me I jumped and grabbed on to the cover and used 'absorb' on him. Being a evolved grimoire made it so that it's above the level it should have been so I instantly fainted. After waking up a few days later I heard a familiar sound.

8 113The Kings of Thendor - The Two Kings
To some, it would probably be obvious. To others – not so much. In the land of Thendor, where magic is mysterious, unmentioned, and sometimes even disbelieved; where kings, queens, and stewards rule, the ages-old kingdom of Alldel remains without its king. Heirs come and go and no one can explain why each one chooses to abdicate to the steward. And who are these heirs, anyway? Some say the line of kings is dead, while others whisper of magic. Some, though few they are, will tell you other kingdoms have interfered, keeping the line of kings from rising in the nation of Alldel. But why? Adric, son of Cassian, heir to the throne of Alldel has come of age and must answer the question, whether to assume the throne, or abdicate as his ancestors had done for centuries. Raised as a blacksmith by a family friend, Adric struggles with the decision to take up his place as King of Alldel, and to make matters worse, a neighboring kingdom has confirmed the rumors of the common folk. An impossibly old king with a centuries-old message arrives and changes Adric’s life in ways he could never have imagined. Adric must decide the future, and perhaps even the fate of the great kingdom of Alldel. Unprepared for this turn of events, he enlists the help of allied kingdoms and even the mystical nymphs of the Tulusbian forest. Some say his actions will start a war on the continent of Thendor. Ohers say he is resurrecting a long forgotten one from centuries ago. Abdicate, or become king? To some, it would probably be obvious. To others – not so much.
8 174Being the God of Hell is a bother [On temporary hiatus]
A group of people dies in a plane crash, but their souls are snatched away by an entity called the Highest One, that wants to make them the gods of a new world in order to guide and control its population. One of the passengers, Viktor, protests this, saying that the people of the new world should be entitled to find their own path in life without immortal beings ruling over them. The Highest One then ask Viktor if he really has that much faith in humanity, and after Viktor answer positively he made him into the God of Hell, tasked with redeeming the souls of the damned, as a way to test Viktor's faith in humanity... EDIT: I'm reworking this novel a bit, changing the first chapters from the "screenplay" form to standard prose. I should be done and start a shedule of one chapter per week at the end of february.

Everything you do is up to you. A free reign universe, multiple destructible or create- able worlds. Even worlds that can be Terra- formed. This is the story of me the author and what I would do if given the opportunity to partake in such an adventure.
