《Murder of the Three Dead Men》Prologue
Advertisement
The man stood in his kevlar suit. He was masked with an owl's mask which he had purchased in America. The London morning was just shedding it's first stray lights. The sun had just peeked over the horizon. Today was his good day he would end this today. He stood next to his black SUV parked in front of a house. The house had all of its curtains closed and the glass was bullet proof. This was a house of a man with paranoia. He knocked on the door. He heard muffled footsteps. The door opened and the man quickly stepped into the bushes, next to the porch on which he stood. An unshaven man stared out at the street through plexiglass screen door. He sighed and was about to shut the first wooden door he had opened when the man leaped from the bushes. In fright the man on the other side of the plexiglas jumped back. In the instant the glass was shattered by a high pitched sound emanating from a device which was held by the kevlar clothed man. He opened the door wide and said in a mechanical voice, "Well Raz we are here at last. The day of reckoning is upon you." With this he lunged at Raz. In one deft move he put his hand to Raz's mouth and tackled him putting his knee on Raz's chest.
"You my friend will come with me." Raz struggled on the ground for a few seconds and went limp. Raz was dragged to the SUV and thrown violently in the trunk. The man was not afraid if Raz woke up. The back of his SUV was caged and if it was touched it sent hundred of volts of electricity to the person touching it. As he drove the sun grew higher. It was around 7:00. The man had planned for this to happen earlier but he had been sidetracked by other matters.

It was almost 7:30 when they drove up to the top of the mountain. The man stepped out of the car and looked over the edge a sheer drop to rocks. He wasn't going to through Raz off. He needed information. Raz was the third person killed in this day but the other two men hadn't given him satisfactory answers to his questions.
The man walked to the trunk and opened it. Raz crouched there ready to spring. The man had expected this. As Raz sprung he sidestepped and jumped ontop of Raz. With the momentum of both falls Raz crumpled to the ground. A ew feet away lay a large rock witch Raz staggered into as he got up. The man round house kicked him. Raz fell once more but using another rock got up.
"What is your secret. I have asked twice from your dead friends. What is this secret you keep?"said the man. Raz coughed up blood and laughed, "I will say the same as my friends, in the east lie the Kings forever buried under wings." Raz chuckled, "Good bye Thoth for the last time I will see you." Raz who had reached the she of the mountain spread out his arms and fell.
A scream of rage burst from Thoth he dived for Raz as he toppled off the mountain into the mist which had formed along the bottom of the mountain. Thoth barely had time to catch himself and grab onto a rock. It took him a few minutes to regain the safety of the mountains edge. He looked over the edge of the mountain and saw nothing but the curling mist. It took minutes but when the mist cleared far below he saw the outline of a body enveloped in scarlet blood. He screamed once more as he climbed into his SUV. He repeated the line over and over again. In the east lie the Kings forever buried under wings.

The Unbinding series Arc: The Dark Spiral Book: Darkborn Shae is broken. Deeply hurt by life, unable to fit in and without the perspective to understand what the people around her mean by their actions. Her only link to the world around her, a pet cat, dies, and her world is turned upside down. When an opportunity presents itself, she grabs onto it, unaware of the part she is made to play in plots that may well determine the fate of mankind. Forum post: https://forum.royalroadl.com/showthread.php?tid=100419 *** 03-May-2018 For all intents and purposes, this book is now finished. At least the second pass. Editing a book is soo much slower than writing it in the first place :( Book 2 of the Unbinding series, chapter 1 has been submitted, and should be readable any moment now. Please check it out, read it, enjoy it and maybe even comment on it.

8 197Medley of Fates Worse than Death
Rick wakes up in a world unknown to him. He doesn't know what exactly happened or why he is there, he just feels he's not from that world as if he had Dissociative amnesia. Soon after waking up, he gets attacked not once, not twice but three times in a single day. Our hero can know how strong enemies are thanks to a special ability of his, but the thing is... What good does it do to know just how weak you are compared to a deadly creature chasing you? This is a LitRPG Fantasy Adventure in which battles are won (or lost) with strategy and wits as our protagonists aren't necessarily the strongest... So if you enjoy more strategic battles I think you will love this story!About the chapters: I will post mostly 1,300 or so word chapters, I love weekly manga and feel like that pacing is similar to the one in a weekly serial chapter, hopefully, you enjoy these chunk-sized chapters :) I only do this for fun in my free time so I think I will probably post a chapter a week, but if my patreon ever gets busy I might put more time into my hobby xD If you feel like checking out some of the newest chapters, I have them over on my Patreon (Currently 5 chapters in advance): www.patreon.com/rija Extra info (Might get spoilery): As the story progresses I intend to add more strategy, politics and economics into the story, but it will still be mostly a LitRpg action-adventure. (Also if you had read my synopsis previously I changed it a bit because the elements I mentioned before in the synopsis won't come into play until much later into the story, and that's why I changed it.)
