Chapter 195
Side Story – Jeanne and the Monsters
Outside of the walls of Ashtaroth Castle
“Why are there so many monsters here!?”
“I don’t know. In any case, we just have to kill them all.”
“You don’t have to tell me that! My unit is over here!”
“Yes, Saint Jeanne!”
“Now, brace yourself.”
“You too, Hijikata.”
“He’s raising his hand silently and trying to look good…it’s most vexing.”
“Saint Jeanne. Should we attack the monsters like this head on?”
“Yes. We will do that, because Hijikata will go around their backs.”
“Understood! Follow after Saint Jeanne!”
“Defeat the monsters slowly but loudly so that we attract their attention. However, be careful so that they don’t surround you.”
“Brilliant! Saint Jeanne!”
“I’m just repeating what Ashta said.”
“The Demon King is brilliant! He is our Demon King!”
“Ashta is a genius…oh! That was close! …Huh?”
“Th-thank you…!”
“Don’t mention it. Right now, we must focus on defeating the monsters.”
“Yes!”
“…Hmm? My sword seems dull today.”
Ashtaroth Town – Blacksmith
“Gottlieb!”
“Hmm? What is it?”
“I’m having trouble cutting with my sword. The Nouvelle Joyeuse.”
“This sword?”
“Yes.”
“I see. You can’t cut with it, eh? Let me see…”
“…”
“Hmm. It seems like you do proper maintenance on it.”
“Of course, I do. Swords become dull if you don’t.”
“Indeed. …Perhaps it hit the bones of a monster. The blade has a small dent in it.”
“Even I could not fix that dent…”
“It would be difficult without a special whetstone. But I can fix this. However, I will have to carve away at the blade, so it will be a little smaller. Is that alright?”

“That’s fine! Thank you, Gottlieb!!”
“Thank me when I’m finished. Hey!”
“You called me, Sir Gottlieb?”
“I’m a ghost, so I can’t repair it directly. And so I’ll leave it to you.”
“Very well. Saint Jeanne, I will repair the blade for you.”
“This is Jin. He’s a master sharpener.”
“Is that so? Then I leave it to you!”
“Now, you should rest in the town until it is finished.”
“No, I would like to watch. This weapon is very important to me.”
“…I see. In that case, you can sit right here.”
“Yes. …There are so many whetstones.”
“We change whetstones by grit, depending on the chip in the blade.”
“And the rougher ones carve off more?”
“Aye, that’s right. We use the rough whetstones first, and then the smooth ones to finish them off.”
“But I only have one whetstone. Should I have lots of them too?”
“You would be able to do this yourself if you did. But leaving it to the blacksmiths is also fine.”
“Hmm…”
“But you’ll likely make mistakes at first if you do it yourself. And so you should watch Jin and learn from him.”
“That is a good idea! I will do that!”
“Come any time. You are very welcome.”
“Sir Gottlieb, Saint Jeanne. I have finished.”
“What!? That is so fast! And it doesn’t look smaller at all!”
“But it is smaller. I sanded it down over the dent.”
“It feels just a little lighter! And it fits in my sheath.”
“Of course, it fits in your sheath. In fact, it might be a little loose now. Perhaps…”
“Amazing! It fits perfectly!”
“Perfectly…?”
“See! It fits in my sheath and isn’t loose at all! And I can unsheath it without any problems.”
“That’s not possible…”
“I suppose it’s because it is a floating relic from another world.”
“How very strange. It seemed like an ordinary sword when I was repairing it.”
“Well, there are a lot of unexplained mysteries in the world.”
“I’m glad that it’s fixed! Now I’m going to test the sharpness!!”
“It’s only just repaired… What a lively child.”
“Indeed. …But I’m sure that the sword is happy.”
Outside the Ashtaroth Castle
“Why are there no more monsters!!”
Hello. Thank you for reading. While there are a few short bonus chapters, this is the last one I will be translating for this series. I hoped you enjoyed the ride and thank you for the support up until now.

Age of Gods - A VRMMO Story
Darren is just an average guy, not rich, not poor, not too fat, not too thin, just about everything regarding him is in the 'Goldilocks Zone'. He spends his leisure time playing VRMMO's, but he isn't the righteous hero or conniving villain, instead, he spends his time hunting down the rarest resources to craft the most powerful items he can. Today Karonite Industries newest VRMMO is launching and Darren is ready to play. Join Darren in a new world on his adventures in Age of Gods! ------------------------------------------- I had previously started writing this story but became dissatisfied because of my lack of experience. Now, Age of Gods is relaunching with the same premise but many many changes. I hope you will all enjoy this journey with me! (Just a quick note, any reviews dated before 12/10/2018 are for the previous version of this story.) I did not make the cover if the owner of the art wants me to take the image down please just send me a message and I will comply immediately.
8 281The Queen's Guard
Friedrich Schreiner is a proud gefreiter of the Queen's Guard, 2nd Company: the finest fighting infantry on the continent (barring the Temple Guard; but please don't bring that up). Service is honourable but, with the Empire on a peacetime footing, terribly boring. Affairs take a dramatic turn for the worse when a mysterious invader uses a forgotten and taboo magical means to breach the capital, plunging the nation into chaos and endangering the royal family. With events spiraling out of control, Friedrich is entrusted with a critical mission. Will hot lead, cold steel, and his determination be enough to see him through? The Queen's Guard is what I'm calling a black powder fantasy story: it's set in a loose equivalent of the early 18th century (plus or minus a few pieces I decided I wanted or didn't want). Magic exists, but not in a spell-slinging sort of way: it's Earth-shaking undertakings or minor enchantments forged in by master craftsmen, the grand working of a secretive cabal or a slight nudge to the course of a blow. I, the eternal optimist, have a full trilogy in mind. The first book is The Prince's Arquebusier, hence the cover and the title disagreeing! This is my shot at 2021's NaNoWriMo and RR Writathon! I've hitherto been terrible at writing long-form fiction, so this is an effort to break out of that by having some accountability in being supposed to post chapters regularly. Here's hoping it works! I have an outline, but not too much detail. I'll do my best to avoid continuity errors, doing anything glaringly stupid, or otherwise fluffing my lines, but I can't make any promises on that. Please do let me know any feedback! Always happy to improve. [participant in the Nov 2021 Royal Road Writathon challenge]
8 91Emancipation - An Isekai Story
When they tell you 'a hero was summoned'. Do they expound on what it takes to truly be moved? Does it make sense to rip a hole within reality into another dimension, to a planet billions of galaxies away, and accurately transport a single person(s)? No, well truth be told, it takes a whole lot to summon anyone so far away, maybe it might take an attempt in summoning of a Dark God, to transport him. Then again they never tell you about what it means to travel between Dark Matter. Or what horrors exist there. Cover by Red Bluebery! I am a new writer, I am trying to find my style of writing. So please have patience. If you see any grammatical errors let me know and I will work to fix them. If you have any criticism please Pm me. or leave a detailed review, not just a single star! Hope we have fun with this.
8 102SPECTER
This is a story I wrote when I was fifteen. I'm twenty-two. I decided to post this piece hoping it'll help inspire people to finish their story. The point of a rough draft is to barf words onto the screen. It's not suppose to be pretty. It's suppose to be finished.
