《My Short Stories》Chapter 21
Advertisement
Hearing a crash I woke up startled. I live alone so I was terrified. I quietly sneaked inside the kitchen. I saw the back door open. I am sure I locked it when going to sleep. I saw the vase I keep in the kitchen at the floor in pieces.
I turned on the lights. I screamed when I felt a hand on my shoulder.
He turned me around and placed a hand on my mouth. I looked at him wide eyed. He shushed me. I nodded. He removed his hand.
"What are you doing here?" I asked to Alex. My neighbour's nephew who recently came to visit him.
"Don't shout. Let me explain." He said. We sat down in the living room.
"My name's not Alex nor am I Mr. Chris's nephew. I am Damon. I am a secret agent and so was Chris." He explained.
"Why should I believe you and why are you here?" I asked.
He passed me his identity card. "I found out something about someone I shouldn't have and now I am a fugitive. Chris was hiding me but somehow they found out about it. They are coming tomorrow to take me. I can't go anywhere as they have eyes everywhere. So I came here." He explained. "Also sorry about the vase. It was an accident." He explained guiltily.
"Come on, it was my favourite." I said jokingly. As if that's important right now. "So you are going to hide here?" I asked. "What makes you think that they won't check the neighbours' houses?" I asked skeptical with his plan.
"Because you won't let them." He said smirking.
"How?" I asked.
"We will act as if no one's home. And as you barely go out there is no record of you in the cameras." He said.
"Fine, I will help you but what will I get out of this?" I asked.
"Whatever you want." He said winking.

8 508Roots and Steel
Hunters wait all year for the Festival of Knives, when they put their skills to the test and claim new ranks with every monster they kill. Trapped helping the family business instead of pursuing his own career, Trellin has never been allowed to participate. But when he risks expulsion to sneak out and claim a kill beyond his rank, his hunt is spotted by a senior guildmember. Rather than turn him in, she offers him a chance for freedom: Join her, and sail to the distant isle of Deldynne to compete in the bloody race for the rank of Guildmaster. If they can kill the monster that calls Deldynne home before the other teams do, he'll soar to new heights as apprentice to the leader of the Hunter’s Guild. But if they fail, neither will leave that island alive. Roots and Steel is a Monster Hunter LitRPG series.
8 270Sengoku Demon Chronicles
Sengoku-era Japan was already batshit crazy. Now it’s got demons. ~~~ Japan 1541-2. Miho, a young village guy [with a female name], is on the trail of his mysterious lost love when he unwittingly saves the life of Akira, a cynical ashigaru [low-level samurai]. By doing so, he incurs the wrath of a box demon who is way too petty to just let it go. After that, it’s mostly downhill. ~~~ Includes: purple mist demons, portals, Yuki Onna, other demons, warlords, ashigaru, a try-hard mage, an eight-tailed fox and an endless litany of pathological liars. Historically, it’s about as accurate as most Hollywood productions. Hopefully, a little better. ~~~ Note: due to having fewer followers than a no-touch, no-look sex cult, I'm taking a break from this for August/September. Will be back in October to finish off Volume 1 and start off Volume 2.
