《Smile, Hero》A Person to Lean On
Advertisement
Ahhhhhhhh. I don't know where this story is going. But I'll figure it out. So. Would you guys like consistent updates, like one chapter a week that would be short, or one or two chapters every two weeks that would be long. I'll let y'all decide. Warning. This is a short chapter. Kinda a filler.

The axis trio paused, listening to America's cries.
"A-Arfred SAN is crying. But why? He is normarry so happy..."
"This ist very strange."
"Oh-a no! Alfred can't be sad!"
The three nations stood shocked outside Ludwig's bathroom, very concerned for the normally bright and happy nation.
America's POV
All I want is someone to lean on. Someone to see me and support me. No one understands. If I ever tried to open up and show everybody the person behind the smiling mask I put up, I don't know what would happen. This just showed that no one accepted me.
Everyone had someone that would support them. Except for me. I was completely and utterly alone in this world.
The axis trio.
They were perfect. They were the closest allies and friends you could ever find, and they stuck together no matter what.
Me on the other hand...
The allies all hated me and the mask I put on. Canada... Canada probably hated me for always overshadowing him. And Japan had the axis. He didn't need someone like me.
A fat, annoying, loud, selfish pig!
I heard a knock.
Oh no! No one can see me in such a weak state! I quickly shoved my glasses on my face, wiped my cheeks, and slapped a pathetic looking smile on my face. I knew it didn't cover the dullness in my eyes. It was fake.
I swung the door open.

The Dungeon Calls for a Sage
Archimedes was the ego behind one of the most powerful dungeons ever created. He grew and developed his halls, filling them with powerful monsters and beasts, over the course of thousands of years. He was a grand structure of ten thousand floors which even heroes had failed to defeat. However, an Evil God had come from another world, calling himself the Demon King, and a party of heroes were sent to do battle with it. Through their victory, they obtained enough strength to breeze through Archimedes' dungeon like it was nothing. Forseeing the end of his life, and realizing how pointless his pursuit of power had been, Archimedes destroyed himself, taking the heroes down with him. Still, Archimedes felt despair that he had lived a worthless life as something as pitiful and futile as a dungeon. Sensing his regret and potential, the voice of the world presented Archimedes with the chance to start anew and live a more meaningful life. Thrilled and hopeful for the first time in eons, Archimedes accepted the offer, only to be reborn again as a dungeon core with not a single room or monster to his name. Just what was the meaning of this?! Archimedes couldn't figure out what the voice of the world was thinking. Somehow, he would have to draw a sage into his dungeon to figure it out for him. _______________________ DCS is now a member of the WriTEr's Pledge, which means I have sworn to see it through to a satisfying end.

“It wouldn’t be a lie to say that many of us want to change our lives for one reason or another. Power, money, lust, love, acceptance… loneliness. Empty endless screaming loneliness; that was my reason. Loneliness that just didn’t go away no matter what I did or how hard I tried. Maybe some of you can imagine how I felt, perhaps even felt it yourself or still do. It is a terrible feeling isn’t it? It can be maddening beyond belief. I remember sitting on the floor in the corner of my room staring at the endless white walls hating myself. The loneliness had gotten so bad I would just sit there and cry. I felt so alone, so isolated, so inadequate. Would you run away from it all if this was your life? Would you try to change things? What my dear reader would you do? This is the story of how I ran, how I lived, how I tried to change things and how I finally died. Dear reader this book is the story of my life and those around me. The knowledge I’ve gained, the wisdom I have acquired, my triumphs, my failures, those I loved and those I hated. This book is all that I am and hoped to be. It is yours now, may it serve you well and guide you to a happier future than mine.” Excerpt taken from the journal of Kaden Vos also known as, “The Butcher of Rakan” -- I have been a long time reader and have always wanted to create something myself. I hope you all find this world I am creating fun and enjoyable. As I am new to this, any advice or feedback you have will be greatly appreciated and I will do my best to improve. My goal is a chapter a week, but sometimes it can be a bit tough with work and taking care of the family. Thank you all for reading. -- PS: I take no credit for the new cover, you are an amazing artist whoever you are. I am only using it for a temp cover till I can make something myself.
