Playing With Other Supernaturals Chapter 629
Advertisement
An abrupt workload suddenly came to the Hephaestus and Loki Familias' way, but they didn't mind it too much, as it was an extra income for them. The Guild also sanctioned their activities after finalizing the tax they would be getting out of it.
But even if everyone was busy trying to 'earn' some money, they didn't stop watching the feed that was still showing the Hestia Familia. Hermes could have switched it back to the Apollo Familia, but since their enemies were still not there, nothing interesting would happen.
After their meal, the Hestia Familia immediately made their next move, but instead of going in the gate's direction, they made their way towards the Guild's Main Building, Pantheon.
"Oh my~ It looks like they still don't intend to go to the battlefield. What do you think they are up to this time, Ganesha-sama?", asked Ibri.
"I'm Ganesha~!"
"Please leave if you won't make any proper commentary."
The people watched how the Hestia Familia entered the building and went straight towards their advisor, who was making an interesting face. "Why aren't you out there for the game?", asked Sophie with the corner of her mouth twitching.
"Yo~ Long time no see, Sophie-san~! It's been a while~!", Kisuke greeted her.
"...It's really been a while. I've always wanted to talk to you, but I suppose this isn't a good time. What business do you have today with the Guild, for you to prioritize it over your current predicament?"
"We'd like to update some of our members' Guild status. We don't want to be branded as cheaters, after all~", Kisuke went straight to business.
Hearing that, Sophie's eyes widened and her long ears perked up a little, "Are you saying that..." But before she could continue, she managed to stop herself, "I'm sorry. Please follow me to a private room to process your request."
Sophie stood up from her seat and faced the direction where their image was being taken, "Please look away for a few moments. From here on, it'll be their private affair."
Hermes understood her point and immediately changed the point of view back to the Shreme Castle where the Apollo Familia and their alliance were still waiting for their enemies to appear.

Some of the Gods immediately started complaining but Hermes ignored them.
Within the private room, Sophie immediately asked, "So who is it? Why now of all times? And you do know the clamor this will cause, right?"
"It'll be Sona-chan, Aika-chan and Koneko-chan~. Please process it.", answered Kisuke.
Sophie sighed, 'If it wasn't clear before, now it'll be clear that they are the fastest leveling Adventurers in history. [Record Holder]'s... More Deities will be after them...'
But since she had already said what she wanted to say, she proceeded, "Understood. I would need the certification from Hestia-sama with her Divine mark."
Sona handed over the documents needed and after Sophie confirmed them, the latter kept it in her folder, "Once I filed this, you'll be officially announced as Level 3. Congratulations on your Level up."
"Thank you."
"Then I won't waste more of your time.", said Sophie and stood up from her seat, intending to leave the room to further work on their documents. However, she stopped just before she exited and asked without facing them, "Can you win?"
Kisuke opened his fan and placed it in front of his face before answering, "You may bet everything on us and I guarantee that you'll become a rich person overnight~! Oh, and by the way, please take this to where the Gods are meeting after the game." Kisuke passed a note to her.
Sophie took the note and smiled slightly before replying, "I'm sorry but I hate gambling. Well then, please excuse me." Their advisor left them in the private room.
"Should we leave?", asked Serafall.
"Right. It's about time. Let's go and test that thing out on the road." Kisuke also stood up and recalled something, "By the way, Medusa. How did it go with Soma-sama's side?"
Medusa nodded and reported, "Everything went smoothly. Though before he agreed, he gave me one of his creations. It's delicious and has some sort of bewitching effect, but it's not something that can affect me."
"Hoh~? So that's the rumored 'successful' wine of his, huh? I'll place an order later."

Some time after the Hestia Familia entered the Pantheon, Ibri Achaa finally received new information. One of the Guild employees who approached the stage passed a note to Ibri, "Hmm...? T-this is!?"

Ibri immediately grabbed his voice amplifier and shouted, "Ladies and gentlemen~! Big news just came from the Guild. Apparently, Magical Girl★Azure, Flashy Knight Champion and White Flames of Dawn updated their Guild status just now and after just two months from their previous level up, they officially became Level 3 Adventurers!"
A wave of silence engulfed everyone before an explosion of discussions occurred. While most were shocked by the news, some were jealous while others wanted to know their secret, more specifically, the Deities.
While Apollo became even more exhilarated with the news, some Gods started plotting on how they could snatch them from Apollo after the game.
Away from other Gods, Loki, Hephaestus, Hestia and Artemis sat together. "If it was from before, I would have been furious with them breaking my Ais-tan's record.", commented Loki.
"That's really thought-provoking eh, Loki. What changed your mind?", asked Hephaestus.
"'Cause I can say for sure that they are in a different category than anyone else. They can't be compared to the normal ones."
"How rude. Are you saying my children aren't normal?", Hestia immediately complained.
However, the teammate she thought she had immediately rebuked her, "That's only because you haven't experienced what's truly normal.", added Artemis calmly.
Hestia knew that she couldn't win an argument against them so she immediately changed the topic by addressing Hermes, "Hermes! Enough of that boring castle where nothing is happening! Show us my children!"
"Understood~!" With a snap of his fingers, the scenery changed and it was now showing the road outside the walls of Orario. The party was still present, but what caught everyone's attention was the strange black 'carriage'.
"What's that? Is that a carriage? It has a strange shape and peculiar wheels.", asked one of the Deities.
"Not just that. It seems to be made out of something metallic. Tamed monsters aside, there's no way a normal horse would be able to pull that.", added another Deity.
While everyone started chattering, Hephaestus asked Hestia, "Hestia, what's that?"
Nonetheless, Hestia was as clueless as everyone else, "I-I don't know... Kisuke-kun never showed me anything like that before."
From the screen, Kisuke's voice echoed, "Alright everyone, hop in~! I'm going to drive."
But as soon as he said that, Serafall immediately rejected the idea by asking, "Do you have a driver's license?"
"Ah... Er... I don't."
"Then leave it to me since I'm probably the only one who has it~!", declared Serafall gleefully.
Kisuke thought about it for a moment before agreeing, 'It's not like something bad will happen.'
In front of them was a High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicle (HMMWV), also known as Humvee back on Earth. In his free time, Kisuke was able to assemble this vehicle with an engine that used Magic Power to move. Aside from the absence of the firearm on top of it, it was very similar to the original one.
Of course, even though it looked like a Humvee, the technology behind it was very different. For one, it had multiple features that would allow top speed on multiple terrains and stability that would keep the vehicle upright even when turning tight corners at high speeds.
Kisuke also didn't forget the safety of its passengers as there were multiple barriers inlaid in its chassis which would automatically activate if certain conditions were met. Magic barriers were also used to achieve the utmost comfort even in rugged situations.
As they got on board, Sona finally recovered from the teasing she received from Serafall after she'd heard her nickname 'Magical Girl★Azure' and recalled something important.
The Humvee started but there was no noise due to Magic directly spinning the wheels similar to an Electric Vehicle. "Ah, I remembered something.", said Sona suddenly.
"What is it?"
"Nee-sama would always drive every vehicle as if she's in a race car and participating in a competition. Her license was actually revoked a few years ago because of that."
Kisuke, Medusa, Koneko, Aika, Akeno and Irina all looked at each other before looking towards Sona with an empty smile, "Too late."
Without anyone being able to stop it, Serafall, without any hesitation, floored the accelerator.

Entangled Fates Book 1 - Quantum Beginnings
“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.” —Eliezer Yudkowsky Hey all, we're moving over to book 2. This content is in a state of transition. The book is now availble on Amazon (includes extra chapters): https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07W1534R8 Artificial intelligence was nearly mankind’s last invention. AI took off like a rocket, then when it racked up an impressive death toll, it crashed before it could blossom and took most high-tech industries with it. Resistance and fears became deep-set. Two decades after the infamous Rev. 4.6 incidents, humanity hasn’t quit dreaming of the wealth and power that could be at their fingertips. A new generation of mega-corporations rose from the ashes. When one melds a quantum computer to a barely functional mental patient as a PR move, there are those who seek to profit, those who want to destroy it, and Alex. Alex Sage is a typical college student trying to keep up his grades and maybe find a meaningful connection with the fairer sex. Then, an automated semi crashes into his home, killing his family and turning his head into a pin cushion in the process. Alex awakens to find most of his memories gone and an illegal AI hidden in his brain implant. Now the pet project of a tech billionaire and heavily in debt, Alex struggles to stay valuable enough to be kept online. Still grappling with the repercussions of his injuries, and threats from a dangerous anti-augmentation political movement, there are no easy answers and threats loom around every corner. Alex must use whatever resources he can to escape from under the thumb of a ruthless corporation, while keeping those he comes to love safe. Chapters will stay up on RRL until Aug 10. It'll go up on Kindle Unlimited after that. How do you get those extra chapters I didn't have planned for RR? If you want them, they'll be in the published book. Book 2 will still make sense without them - I made sure of that. But... isn't $3 a lot for extra chapters? Think of it as tipping me for a good job and you'd also be getting my eternal thanks. If you enjoyed it so much that the idea of missing out a few chapters haunts you, I did my job as an author and made an engaging story. What's in those extra chapters? Resolving a few issues, set up for the cybernetic revolution, a rather intense sex scene with a new partner, revelations of who's really pulling strings, and a bit of set up for book 2. Complaints that people missed out on it when it was published here won't help (sorry!). I posted this for the folks who helped me shape the book, which is you all! (Again, yay!) But... Why! Why not keep it all on RR forever? My editor likes being paid for one. For two, I'd like the ability to get broader readership. If I break even on editor costs, I'll be incredibly happy. What about book 2? Drafts for Book 2 will go up around Sept 10. My draft of Book 2 is done, and it will be handed to the editor once Book 1 is published. Feedback has been even more positive. Beta readers devoured it and wanted more. I'll add a link to Book 2 once it's up on RR. I'm more or less, using you all for Beta Readers, so you get it before it's "canon" and edited. I invite active and meaningful feedback during this process. In return, you get early access to chapters. That does mean that the book content or plot might be adjusted before it gets published as I refine it. Sex Y/N? Yes. I heard the feedback, 90% wanted it explicit. You all will get the "full" experience. Will I dump all of book 2 here? Honestly, I'm not sure yet. At a minimum, it'll be up to the 75% mark as we collect feedback, much like what I did with book 1. It really depends on how good the feedback is and how nice people are. Lots of support + meaningful feedback to make it better = higher likelihood you get all the book. Will be it up here indefinitely? No, it'll probably go up on KU at some point, but I'll make sure there's enough time for a large readership to grab it here. Then we move to book 3 which already is around 60K words already. What about other adventures in the same universe/characters? Yep. Absolutely. Nothing ready to share yet though. I plan to keep those side chapters and more slice of life stories as RR exclusive. Since I'm carving this off in book-sized segments, I'll have to figure out where those disconnected story arcs belong. I'm open to suggestions.

Bookworld Online: Marsh Man
Welcome dear friends, to the Virtual Reality Full Immersion System called Bookworld Online! Your name is David Drake and you are a 10 year old slave to the Marsh Hag. You were bought from your parents when you were only a small child at two years old. You don't really remember your old family at all. That's a good thing, since you would hate them on sight for selling you to her. All you've know for your whole life is pain. You are usually quickly healed and receive a lot of training and experience as her unofficial apprentice. It's unofficial because she would never pay to have you registered as an actual apprentice. To everyone else, you are just the boy she took pity on and brought into her home. What they don't know is that you are much more than that. So much more. You are her food. She uses you as her own personal buffet and she indulges herself quite often. You even have the permanent scars to prove it. You have learned many things from her, mostly without her knowing, since you have been helping more and more with her spell work the last few years and her potion making. The only parts you can't do are the magic condensing rituals that her potions require and the mana infusions that a lot of her other creations need. Do you wish to initiate the Main Storyline with these parameters? Please Note: I publish daily.Second Note: I changed this story to a fan fiction. It is based on Swamp Boy. The old story is about 4 years old and was dropped after 19 long chapters. The author hasn't been online since then, so I figured it was safe to do my own take on it.
