Master Of None Chapter 44
Advertisement
Walker had chosen a bedroom close to the stairs so he could get up and move more easily without waking others. The room was not furnished and only had a bed as of now but, walker knew he could fill it over time.
Leaving his room just as the sun rose he found Remey already waiting for him. "Well didn't you sleep long pfft" he knew she was just teasing him but was curious how early she had awoke. He was sure that being the big sister of the orphanage gave her plenty to do earlier in the morning.
They walked down the stairs and grabbed some bread to eat on the way to the forge. Walker's mother had already been up as usual baking so he didn't disturb her. He was thankful that with her system she could place orders for food from home and have them delivered. It definitely took the hasstle out of shopping for ingredients.
Exiting the mansion, Walker said a quick good morning to the guards and proceeded on their way. The nice part of being out early was that they didn't get any looks from wandering nobles as they weren't out yet. Only craftsman and carriage drivers seemed to be out to do deliveries. Many delivering high class ingredients or the unusual parcels to large mansions or high end shops. Even the horses pulling these carts were high end.
With no problems at all the pair made it to the lower tier and headed towards the orphanage first, mostly because walker could see a bit of stress in Remeys eyes. The orphanage was a slightly run down building near the church. It's walls used to be white but had faded to grey. A small garden made up the yard to help with food. They'd built a small pen for a cow to provide milk. This was due to the nuns being required to assist in the growth of orphans as part of their training. However the funds for the orphanage came from the castle not religion.

It wasn't so much that they hurt for funding; it was more that people chose not to recognize that some children had no homes or family. It would be interesting to see what Remey could do with her title of hero to affect the orphanage.
Before the two even made it to the door, a group of kids burst out tackling Remey to the ground.
"Get her!"
"Surprise attack tackle!!!"
"This time we'll win!"
These phrases of battle continued as Remey began rising up and throwing kids off her arms and legs. It was an endless battle, making walker realize how she had easily unlocked her system. While Remey said hello in this manner walker noticed an older woman watching with a slight smile.
"Hello, my name's Walker I'm a member of Remeys party, we were in the area so we decided to stop by for a bit before we headed to the forge and alchemist building." Walker was polite as ever.
"How nice, tell your parents they did well raising you. Hahaha, my names Lin I'm in charge of the little monsters over there. I hope you're all treating Remey well, she's always acting hot tempered but she's more doting than anyone else here. Although her sense of timing could use work, we were just about to start lessons for the day now I'll have to calm them down." Even with those last words the smile grew on Lin's face. She was fairly happy that the first of Remeys party she'd brought home was a boy and decided she might just tease Remey a bit later.
"Hey get your butts inside before I drag you in!!!! You aren't escaping math lessons today!" Surprising Walker Lin let out a loud yell causing every child to snap to attention and rush inside.Some glanced at walker in curiosity but didn't dare disobey Lin.

"We'll get you next time!" One boy yelled as he slammed the door closed so Remey couldn't pursue him.
"They'll never beat me, I'm just too strong" Remey was all too happy at another victory over her siblings.
"Ohhh yes another win for Remey I guess being the only one to bring a boy home does make you a winner." Lin's statement caused Remey to stutter and flush red. Walker however was unfazed catching on to Lin's mischief.
"I know you worry about those gremlins in there but you haven't even been gone a day! Take this polite young man and get a move on! Here I thought you were growing up. Hahaha" Lin chuckled as she said this causing Remey to turn and move on her way at a fast pace.
"Fine I won't visit ever!" Remey was embarrassed and said she wouldn't return but both Lin and walker knew they were false words.
Fearing Remey would get too far away walker quickly followed "it was nice to meet you! I'll have my mother send some bread for you all!" Walker hurriedly caught up to Remey. It was time to pay the forge and visit the alchemy building.
The walk was short and Walker was able to pay at the counter of the forge very easily, being told that the gate would be placed in a few hours and people had already been sent to repair and clean up the wall.
This left the alchemy building. The building was similar in size to the forge since they required heat to cook many things. The first floor was a large shop selling potions, herbs, and some monster parts. There was also an assortment of tools one may need. The second floor housed many rooms for producing potions and processing herbs. Their third floor was the same as the forge; housing the offices of the alchemist building. As the pair approached the entrance walker noticed many colored smokes coming from the different stacks. He had always wondered what herbs and potions created these different colors. Pushing the theory from his mind, he opened the front door.

The Fate Eater
What might a man really do if he found himself reincarnated into a fantasy world as a dragon prince? How would he come to terms with his new nature, his larger-than-life family, the agendas of warring factions, and the destiny he never asked for? This is a story that intends to defy some isekai tropes, but play into others. It's mainly about exploring a rich hand-crafted world, full of its own history and mysteries. Its characters have their own lives and aspirations, and our protagonist is but a piece of the greater tapestry. This story is not about right and wrong, or good and evil. It's about a dragon-man being tested by fate, power, and time. It's about what it's like to live as an outsider who lost their home. But perhaps the most central theme is freedom. What does freedom really mean? What will it cost and how much might one be willing to pay for it? Does it even truly exist? Let's find out together.

Dark Matter
In the year 2023, scientists investigating the nature of dark matter caused a blackout throughout the entire world of Coranth. With this blackout came the appearance of supernatural and near-magical elemental abilities able to be wielded by all. By harnessing the dark matter in the environment, even ordinary humans now accessed powers that would have been deemed fantasy. These abilities include Wind, Fire, Lightning, Water, and Terra, being the five natural elements of which dark matter is absorbed by the planet itself. Additionally, the two moons orbiting Coranth offer the "Superior" elements of Dark and Light. The year is now 2041, and Dark Matter will follow the story of an adolescent boy named Raiden Sullivan in a dystopian future, 16 years old, eldest of 2, and son to Marcus Sullivan. Raiden is an intelligent young man belonging to a poor family with an absentee mother. He partakes in daily chores to cover living expenses after school and his home life is surrounded by his caring father and younger sister. In truth, this is my take on urban fantasy with slight LitRPG that keeps the "magic" elements somewhat scientific for a more realistic story. In using the dark matter surrounding our universe, humans can now harness elemental abilities as well as absorb dark matter from the beasts/monsters to further strengthen their abilities. For the most part, that'll be the main premise of the power system. Full transparency, this will be the first story I write and also the first story I publish, so please be patient with me. For some context, I'm an avid reader and after 4 or so years of only consuming, I feel that it might be time to try my hand at writing instead. Please feel free to add your opinions and criticism, it would be much appreciated. With that said, I hope you enjoy Dark Matter!
