《The Solitary Sword Sovereign》Standing Corpses...
Advertisement
As soon as Letty heard these howls her face became ugly. She knew these howls very well, as a top quality guide she could identify a creature by its sound.
'Impossible, this is not their territory. Why are they here?'
She did want to summon a strong horde, but she had inadvertently summoned one of the most dominant beast hordes in Miami. Letty was about to warn Will when she stopped due to the expression on his face. It was genuine shock.
"Master, I am sorry I made a dreadful error. We need to run."
Will shook his head. Then after that, he said words that made her feel powerless with a devilish grin, "Why? It's only a pack of Storm Wolf Guardians led by a General. This won't even take me five minutes. Sit back and watch."
'Sit back and watch? Watch what?'
Will's words gave Letty some expectation. A horde of Storm Wolf Guardians led by a Storm Wolf General was no laughing matter, especially considering Will's level.
"By the way, Letty, what level are you? And what is your class?" As the horde got closer and closer, beads of sweat started trickling down Letty's forehead, yet Will was calm and started some idle chatter.
"I am level forty-nine, and my class is Nether priest."
"What kind of class is that?" Letty smiled wryly at Will's question. She wanted to say 'just another piece of rare garbage' but she quickly held her tongue and corrected herself.
"It's a class that focuses on communicating with the dead. I have some skills related to soul magic and necromancer magic, but they have major drawbacks."
Will became curious as Letty spoke about her class. As far as he was concerned a necromancer type class should be quite powerful, so why would she look down on it?

"The majority of my skills are for communicating with the dead. I can also only raise undead that I myself have killed. My undead are incapable of independent thought which puts stress on my mind because I have to control their every move. My class is suited toward scouting and information gathering, but at the lower levels, it's not very useful for battle. Until I am able to slay a powerful beast, I will not be of much use to you. Even then my using the beast will no doubt require mana I cannot provide..."
Letty's voice trailed off and her mood became more depressed as time went on. She was incredibly talented, one could even say blessed by the heavens, but unfortunately, she was given a class that was very difficult to use.
"Wow, that sounds really OP.," said Will with approval.
"Yes, it is Op-wait what?"
By the time Letty had registered what Will had said, they had been completely surrounded. The giant wolves stopped a few meters away from the duo and made way for their leader.
'Classy as always I see.'
Will admired how orderly the Storm Wolves were. The respect they had for their superiors impressed Will.
'It's a pity there isn't a King. That would have been more fun.'
The general came closer on foot; saliva dripping from its mouth as it glared at its soon to be prey. Letty wanted to ask Will what he meant by OP, but the general was just too intimidating. Letty gripped onto Will's hoody in fright as she glared at the giant wolf.
Will moved his hands and was about to remove the glove on his right hand when he hesitated. "Nah, he isn't worth me going that far." Letty couldn't make head or tails of what Will's mumbling. Will was trying to decide how to kill these wolves in the coolest but most efficient manner possible.

'A true strike is out of the question. It's too flashy. Should I fight as a swordsman or a meister, or both? Well, I do carry a sword around with me, but I don't want to use sword skills too much. Right now my understanding of the sword Dao far surpasses my understanding of water. That's settled. Water it is.'
Some water suddenly materialized in front of Will. The water floated about and constantly changed shape as if it was alive. Letty had seen many people with the ability to manipulate water, she had seen things that were far grander in scale that bringing out a little blob of water.
'You are going to need much, much more water if you want to defeat the General.'
The Storm Wolf General stopped a few meters from the duo, it enjoyed the look of fear in its prey's eyes before it had its meal. It often made such things a game if it could, because, for the more intelligent demonic beasts, a battle was often the most entertaining thing to do.
Fear was evident in Letty's eyes, much to its liking, but when the General looked at Will and so his confident expression, it was unhappy. Will noticed this and snorted, his confidence quickly turned into disdain as he looked at a beast that was capable of destroying mountains.
Letty found Will's confidence unreasonable, but she still had hope in her heart. Only an idiot would be this confident in front of a beast he could not kill with ease.
'I hope he is not an idiot.'
Letty silently prayed in her mind. "I know what you guys are thinking, you're probably thinking that this isn't enough water right?" Will's voice caused everyone's attention to fall on him, "This is about 10 liters of water, lesson number one Letty when it comes to being a true warrior, quality over quantity." The water blob quickly rose above the duo, to just above their heads.
Swoosh!
Like a gale of swift wind, it moved, vanishing into thin air. Letty was wondering what happened to the blob when her senses made her believe she was insane. As a Nether Priest, she was sensitive to the presence of souls. From nowhere, thousands of souls suddenly appeared in the space around them.
Letty let go of Will's hoody and walked forward, the body of the General was completely still, and so were the bodies of all the wolves around them. It was as if they were standing corpses.
'No, these are standing corpses.'

A Fool's Journey, or the Vagrancies of a Man in Exotic Lands
What does a sad bastard do when fate, literally, decides to throw him into a fantasy world? Solon just wanted to lead a normal life; work, share some pizza with friends, work, play some videogames or read something, work, maybe sleep?, work... Pretty much the usual, rinse and repeat. It was far from perfect, but life was nicely boring and comfy enough. Truth be told, he had hoped it would go on forever, or until he got married, or until the apocalypse finally decided to bring an end to everything. As far as he could tell, though, the former was about as likely as the latter; not very. And perhaps even somewhat related, if it ever came to it. Unfortunately, he saw himself involved in some sort of cosmic fart that screwed him over, brutally severing his life-plan. Or, maybe, would it be more suitable to say that Fate had other plans? Sure, he's yet to find out exactly what those plans might be, but, at the very least, they do seem to involve him being shoved into another world, fighting off a couple of horrendous creepers, and -almost- an accidental liaison with a baboon. Needless to say, the job doesn't come with dental care, and death seems more likely than retirement... Yep, when he got yoinked out of Earth, there were no princesses waiting for him, no sexy goddesses, and no severe Gandalf-wannabes! Heck, not even a bunch of demonic cultists! All he got for the trouble was a bunch of snarky windows and the honest desire to punch whatever bastard happens to be behind the smug System. Well, that, and a few forced trips to the so-called Tower of Ascension. Not exactly what he would have expected but, on the plus side, he does get to do some magic. Though, not quite the wand-waving kind. Whatever. One thing’s patently clear, though, he’s certainly not the chosen one, nor the summoned hero, nor the Savior. If anything, he himself might be in need of some saving... Just what kind of fool does the System take him for? Please do consider the tags. Also, 'Strong Lead' here means weak to strong, over a decent amount of time, not op from the very beginning. Things to expect: decent grammar, cheeky goats. Things not to expect: Harems, a decent sense of fashion.

Daily life of a cultivation judge
Tired of those cultivators who think it is righteous to eliminate a sect or clan root and stem all in the name of revenge and avoiding future troubles, fights over treasures that end up destroying cities with no consequence whatsoever to the culprit, these psychos whose aim for the peak always involves a trail of carnage and bloodshed in its wake for some reason. Then look no further than the daily life of a cultivation judge. Yang Qing, is a young genius cultivator from a low-tier family whose only safe choice to get resources and hopefully lead an easy life led him to the courts of the Cultivation Order Society. Author’s disclaimer: Hey there this is my first novel so any criticism will be well taken though beware I’m a million-year-old monster who has cultivated the way of the sword to the peak. The daily life of a cultivation judge will be true to its name so it will be heavily on the slice of life lane with a bit of action here and there.Meaning we will see the life of Yang Qing when he clocks in and out. Hopefully, it will be one of those novels you read if you need to relax or are in a slacker mood like one of those otakus who listen to the noises of cicadas in the summer famously used in most animes. And it is in the slacker spirit that chapter release will be on Wednesday,Thursday and Friday. Sank yuuu Cover art by Conny Schneider on Unsplash
