"Midas?"
"Hm?"
"I like that name. It fits you a lot."
"Huh...thank you Sophie. Not many people tell me that..."
*****************************************
Upon bandaging up her arm, Midas and Sophie overhear 2 very familiar voices:
One being Jules from a distance:
"What?! Well don't just lie there! Get up! If you won't bother looking for them, I'll go in myself! Now move it!!"
"That doesn't sound good." Sophie mutters, turning to a sees Midas' tense expression. "You alright M?"
"Hm? Oh, i-it's nothing."
And the other voice sounding a lot like Skye:
"Huh? Bossman?! Is that you I hear?"
Following the source of the voice, the duo find the legendary adventurer locked up tight within a cell.
"Oh my gosh! Boss! Sophie?! You're alive!!" She smiles, reaching through the bars to pat the girl softly on her head.
"Shadow can't get rid of someone like me that easily, agent Skye." Midas tells her with a hum.
"Well, that's true bossman! You're the best!"
The bittersweet reunion is cut short however when pounding footsteps begin to approach them at a rapid rate.
"There'll be time for chitchat later, for now, let's get the hell out of here." Midas groans as Skye recovers her bag and swords, along with Ollie, whom she places on her head.
*****************************************
Using a portion of his golden power, Midas manages to make a gap in the bars wide enough for Skye to clamber through safely. Then they begin to do the most logical thing:
Run.
Their plan?
Bust through Jules' henchmen and possibly Jules herself, get to the exit, and by using Skye's grappler, grab the nearest boat and make a break for it.
"Kill the henchmen if you must...but leave the girl unharmed." Midas orders.

"You mean Jules? Why M?" Sophie asks, confused.
"Just! ... don't harm her. Shove past her if necessary." He shouts, trying to keep his golden power under control.
"Yes boss!" Both girls reply.
Hmm, I wonder why he wants Jules unharmed?
Maybe he's known her once before. He's obviously hiding something...but what is it, I wonder?
Sure enough, the trio of runaway Ghost members run into a bunch of henchmen, all with submachine guns and assult rifles pointing right at them.
"Nowhere to run you 3." Jules' voice cuts through the crowd. "So just lay down your weapons and-"
She stops upon looking at the surrounded Ghost agents. Of course, she throws a glare at the girls, but when she notices Midas in between them, her face:
She looks like she's seen a ghost.
"Um, are you alright miss Jules?" Sophie asks, reaching out her hand before Midas puts it away again.
"Shut it, kid." She frowns, glaring at her.
"W-Well, what are you waiting for?! Shoot them!" Jules orders, regaining her focus.
But Midas was faster, pulling out both revolvers from his jacket, he shoots 2 henchmen blocking the way as Skye and Sophie shoot past, with her firing a few warning shots.
"Ugh! After them!"
Jules and the few remaining henchmen race after them as they reach the exit, bullets flying in spray.
"Quick! Grab a hold on my hand!" Skye shouts, pulling out her grappler.
Midas, as Sophie wraps his arms around him, grabs a hold of Skye's wrist as she shoots the grapple, latching onto a speed boat.
With a slight wobble, all 3 manage to land on their feet.
"Good shot agent Skye." He congratulates her as she smiles with a thumbs up. "Um, kid? You can let go of me now." He requests, looking down to find Sophie still holding onto him.
"Ah, sorry Midas." She grins.
The moment is short-lived, however, as a very angry voice shouts at them.
"You may have good tech Midas. But does her grappler do this?!"

Hack Alley Doctor
It’s 2034, and Derrick Yu is an apprentice mod-doctor at Hack Alley, a prosthetic modification shop in the ugly part of Chinatown. Or, what used to be Chinatown at least. Gangs from all around the country prowl the streets, robbing the locals and refugees alike, as the rest of America is torn apart by greed and poverty. And Derrick wasn’t always an apprentice mod-doctor; he has a secret that could put him in danger if someone found out, especially a gang like the White Leopards. Meanwhile, people around the world are realizing that something’s wrong with their mods. Mod manufacturers like Stoneridge Prosthetics pretend like everything is normal, but not everyone believes them . . . . As the bills pile up, and Hack Alley battles bankruptcy and gangs alike, Derrick’s going to learn to fight back and stand proud, all while installing mods for the community, and upgrading his own. Gangs, secrets, and conspiracies: what else could a Hack Alley Doctor hope for? ********** Vote for Hack Alley Doctor on TopWebFiction! ********** Cover image attributions: Photo by cottonbro from Pexels Hacksaw made by Icongeek26 from www.flaticon.com Blood drop made by Pixel perfect from www.flaticon.com
8 126Cultivating Dungeon
He was once hailed as the Sage Emperor, although not the strongest in the world, he was the most knowledgeable. People traveled great distances to seek him for help with their cultivation. One day he suddenly died in an ancient ruin and when he thought it was all over he was given a second chance. He reincarnated, not as a human but as a dungeon! Join our MC as he is thrown into a world of magic and fantasy! P.S. This is not an OP MC story, the MC will be starting from the beginning. While he has the benefit of his previous knowledge there are large drawbacks as well. I want to clarify this as my description can lead to the assumption of an OP MC. Please vote on Web Fiction Guide (online novels, reviews) Novels Online Cover created by: Catastrophic_Finale http://royalroadl.com/forum/showthread.php?tid=72311 Hello everyone, this is going to be my first book and I’m very excited to write it. I had many ideas I want to write about for a long time but never wrote the out. I started reading JPN LN then got into all the Chinese LN so was influence by both types. I already read a few ln about being a dungeon/dungeon master and really enjoy and one day suddenly had an idea. What if a cultivator was to become a dungeon? A lot of these dungeon ln all have someone with modern world experience become the dungeon so they all have this advantage of games but what if someone who is straight out of a xianxia novel instead? Someone who has no idea how a more medieval fantasy world works and have no idea what a dungeon even is. This give me a lot of fun things to write about and finally decide to try writing it share it with you all! I hope you all enjoy it and please leave comments/review telling me how I can improve.
