Lyon POV
"What you did was a irresponsible & risky move Lyon! Do you know what could have had happened if you got caught-yoi?! You know what, don't answer that!" I rolled my eyes as Marco kept on ranting on & on about what I did, could have led to something stupid "Are you even listening-yoi?!"
"Yeah whatever mum." I say in a sarcastic manner, he groaned
"When will you learn that your actions have consequences?!"
"When will you learn that I'm not a kid anymore?!" I snap back at him "Everyone else sees me as this matured, young adult while you still see me as a 7 year old!!"
"Maybe you should act your age & I might!"
"I could say the same to you as well!" I then stormed off
"Hey! I'm not done talking to you-yoi!" I turned my head back to him & glared at him
"Well I am!" & I went to my & slammed the door behind me, I clenched my fists & held back a frustrated scream. I instead punched a wall & left a hole, I sigh to myself & sat down on my chair & look at the newspaper with my in it, I laugh to myself & grab it before reading the headline
(you have no idea)
What I needed the money & books for, I gave them to Nami & Nojiko while I gave the food to Luffy, unfortunately he was asleep when I left the food but luckily I sneakily left the food in the little shack like cabin, my thoughts were interrupted when I heard a knock on my door
"What?" I say rather harshly
"Chief, its me, Izo." I sigh & open the door
"What do you want?" I ask as I lean against the door frame "Apologizing for Marco? If so, I don't believe him. He can come up & apologize to me himself." I go to shut the door but he stopped me

"No! Um, c-can I come in?" I look at him skeptical before sighing again & moving aside, as soon as he got in I closed the door behind me "We need to talk about what happened early?" I cross my arms & roll my eyes
"Whatever..." I sat down on my chair & gave him a look to continue
"He's only concerned for you, you know that right."
"Well it gets annoying, every little thing I do is practically "dangerous" to him."
"Well he worries, he's very... paranoid for your safety. He did save you from when both my & Curiel we're gonna use the boat that you were in as target practice, for Thatch & Haruta's amusement."
"Then he needs to stop nagging at me, like I said before, I'm not a child anymore!"
"He knows that, but he can't help but love you & worry for you like a father." I look down at the mention of that
"Like a father...?"
"Mm hmm, just like Thatch, but instead he likes to be seen as an older brother than a father." I scratch the back of my neck but shook my head "Just know that when he does yell, scold or tell you off, its in a father way."
"Okay... but that's what I have pops for." Izo laughed while I chuckled, he placed his hand on my head & I look up at him
"Are you cool with him now?" I shrug
"I-I'm not sure if I should." I stood up "I need to clear my head off." I open my door & saw in the corner of my eye that Marco, Thatch & a few others were around the corner, totally not eavesdropping, as I made my way to the deck

"Where are you going-yoi?" I hear Marco, I whistle & Sil comes running over
"I'm just going to clear my mind." & I flew off, I was able to shrink Sil so he could just chill on my back but he still looked like he was gonna hurl so he looked away, I just shook my head & kept on flying
Third Person POV
Leo groaned as he took another swig of smirnoff, he blew his hair out of his right eye & slammed his head onto the table. Beside him was Sil, he rolled his eyes as he saw what Leo just did. He was basically keeping an eye on him, it takes a real long time for Leo to get drunk but it really does make him do weird shit
"*sighs deeply* mm, I like how Marco thinks of himself as a father figure to me like pops but, h-he needs to stop the nagging & r-ranting...! Don't you think?"
"Ahh, I'm not sure. if you don't like him acting like that, maybe that might stop him from scolding you."
"No no no! D-Didn't you hear me a s-second ago?! What I d-don't like is him nagging at me, him as a f-father figure... I respect that." & he slammed his head on the table again, Sil groaned while shaking his head until he smelt a familiar smell
"Cigars? But, your not smoking one right now. Who's smoking--" someone then smashed the table into pieces which resulted in Leo having to sit up
"That would be me." Leo lazily looked up & saw a man with silver like hair, was smoking like, 3 cigars at the same time & hat a jitte as a weapon "Virus Archer Lyon, it is my duty as a marine to bring you in for all the crimes that you've caused." he merely sighed
"& you are, you clearly know who I am but I don't know who you are." Leo chuckled when he heard him growl
"I am Captain Smoker."
"I'm guessing your a devil fruit users by the amount you smoke & by your weird name, fuck, who calls their son Smoker?"
"Shut it! Now you can come with me the easy way, or we can do this the hard way." Sil just stood up & walked away while Leo put on a thinking face while he crossed his legs
"Well, the easy way sounds boring so... I'll go with the hard way." a smirk had suddenly appeared onto Smoker's face as he bounced his jitte on his shoulder "Shall we?"
"We shall indeed. !" Leo was punched out of his seat, through the building & smashed through a brick wall until he slammed into the ground. He was looking up at the sky with a big smirk on his face as he slowly lifted himself off the ground
"This is going to be interesting." he mumbled before jumping to his feet & walking through the wreckage

Dominion Expansion (a 4X LitRPG)
Clay is one of the world's top players of 4X games, a genre where the goal is to eXplore, eXpand, eXploit, and eXterminate. He's also one of the only players in the world to so stubbornly stick to the one city strategy, a favorite tactic of his that involves only ever using a single city or planet depending on the game's setting. All that matters to him is winning with his favorite strategy, but earning the respect of his fellow players for taking a sub-optimal strategy to its highest level has always been a nice bonus. And now it is because of his skill and entertaining determination that he has been chosen to represent a higher realm in a strategy game where the fate of Earth and dozens of other worlds are at stake. To the victor goes the spoils, and the spoils include entire worlds and billions of lives. That's how he ends up representing the ascended realm of Hell in a grand "game" between an entire pantheon of godly beings and other higher powers. But while it may just be a game to those overseeing it, it is a genuine war for survival to those participating in it where billions of real lives will go to the victor of whoever wins, and many will die before the game is over. Quick Author's Notes: System inspired by Civilization, Endless Legend, Stellaris, and Crusader Kings 2. Combat mechanics inspired by the Total War series. Slow-paced with many long-term plans. Protagonist has a personality heavily inspired by Ron Swanson. Know who that is and love him? You should like Clay. Know who Ron Swanson is and hate him? You'll probably hate Clay. Planning on writing every single day (turn). Days with important things happening will have the system/game mechanics be the priority of the chapter. Days where there isn't really anything important happening will be more slice-of-life and focused on character interactions. Designed a dice-based randomized map generator to create the world as the story goes on, so I don't even know myself exactly what's going to happen as a lot is dependent on world generation. Tech tree with hundreds of technologies already designed. There is a "harem," but it's not the main focus, the girls won't be cardboard cutouts, and I'm not going to completely forget about any previous women in the relationship whenever a new one comes along. One last thing. The "game" starts off with primitive technology level. The current plan is for the "endgame" tech level to be equivilent to WW2-era technology. After that and war just gets boring until you end up in space. Cover is temporary and made from royalty-free stock images while waiting for the real cover's commission to finish.

Dark Souls is known as one of the hardest game series to have ever existed and with the third installment of Dark Souls, being Dark Souls 3, the makers of the game decided to not make another. With the licensing of the game being put into limbo, a game company called Virtual World decided to buy the right to make another game in the series, this game was called Cinder Souls. Something was different about this game compared to the rest of the series and that was it is on the World Gear, a device that put your consciousness inside of the game and gave you complete control of your character's body. This game exploded and sold over 5 million copies in the first week since it had something other games didn't. Freedom. You could do 18+ actions, take over kingdoms, destroy guild bases entirely, and even rob NPCs. Of course there are laws in certain areas that prohibited certain actions but that all depended on what guild was in control of the land you are at. There are 4 continents with there being several countries dividing each continent into different sections and each having their own difficulties. The strongest continent of them all is Land of the Gods, which only the most legendary of players can enter and become apart of. It is a small island which only has 10 inhabitants but these 10 people could easily take over any other continent on the planet but decide to lay dormant on the island, waiting for something strong to spice up the game. Each of these 10 players is considered a God in the game and even have their own following base. Each God had major influence over the millions of other players in the game but that was all in the past. Now it is time for an update, a completely new world with new enemies and new beginnings for all and that update is coming soon. Its supposed to arrive in one day in fact. This update would have new quests and new adventures and the game title will be changed to Cinder Souls II, whether you kept your character or not is unknown but what was known was that the real world was excited for this.

This story follows one of the best players to have ever graced the game, Frew, the God of Miracles, and his new adventures but it is not as expected. Not one of the 14 million players could expect what would be coming up next in Cinder Souls II nor would anyone be prepared for it. *****WARNING, IF YOU ARE HERE FOR THE VIRTUAL REALITY ASPECT IT IS NEXT TO NONE EXISTANT EXCEPT FOR CHAPTERS IN THE FAR FUTURE***** For the original cover picture, check out this link! ----> https://www.pinterest.com/pin/420875527667199123
