《Loki’s Successor System 》Chapter 120: APOCALYPSE DAWN (5)
Advertisement
Jin quickly ducked as the red blast veered at him. The blast had ended up mercilessly destroying members of the plague behind him. However, the rocky creature did not care about destroying its own comrades.
Jin had heeded this. He quickly ran around the creature. It turned its head and body to follow him, blasting relentlessly. The erroneous blast—which had constantly failed to touch Jin—had burnt monsters accidentally. Jin was deliberately causing the rocky creature to annihilate more of its kind!
After doing so for a while; Jin had lunged toward the rocky creature from behind. He clenched his teeth, and slashed his green dagger at its back. His blade had made a clashing sound as if it had collided with sword, and then ... it had bounced off the sturdy material. No use.
Jin grimaced. "You would expect a weapon of the Gods to destroy simple rock ... but O fucking hell, it doesn't!"
As the creature turned around—finally halting its blast—Jin dashed left. The creature thrust its rocky wrist at Jin. The blade extending out of such. Jin sidestepped. Then, he quickly thrust his dagger into the red, glowing hole in the creature's chest: the core—much like a heart—where energy emanated.
As the blade sunk into the creature's core; its red eyes bulged. Its body wavered; veering in all directions, aquiver. The core's glow had intensified by over seven hundred percent. Jin was forced to squint to retain sight of the monster.
Jin quickly yanked his dagger out, and dashed away. The creature was about to explode! He ran away from the center of the circle and budged through a group of spectating monsters. They had tried to stop him, but that was when he used his dagger to lop hands off.
He constantly dashed through the group, nearing the tall Sorcerer who had remained etched behind his mind. In doing so, he looked behind his shoulder at the rocky creature who he had only just slain. Holes appeared in the creature, and thousands of red blast came out of these holes. Then, the creature had exploded in red, prevalent glory.

Unfortunately, Jin did not get any experience points ... what a pity.
Frowning at this unjustness, he continued toward the Sorcerer. He sprinted swiftly on his feet When suddenly, a human-like creature had caught him. The creature possessed pitch-black skin with shining stars on it. To Jin, its skin was reminiscent of a galaxy. The creature pulled Jin toward him. Jin quickly slashed at its hand, furrowing brows. The blade had simply passed through its skin like nothing, dealing no damage.
The creature peered into Jin's eyes. "You," it said, "it was your kind that had caused this ... you had created a monster! Revenge will be begotten!" its voice echoed as if in a cavern.
Jin continued to slash relentlessly at the creature. 'Come on, come on! Special attack, special attack!' he thought, clenching his teeth. The creature had cupped its hand around Jin's neck, strangling him. It was strong.
"Blade do not cut through the flesh of Oraxians! Can you cut the sky, boy!?" It gritted its teeth.
[Weapon special attack (Poisoning) upon next blow]
"I wanted a special attack but not that one," Jin slashed his dagger, "but it'll do for now!"
The creature had paused, as if paralyzed by Jin's attack. Jin quickly kicked off its chest, landing on his back. He hurriedly got to his feet, and continued toward the Sorcerer. A creature grabbed him. He slashed it, shredding through flesh. A creature stood in front of him, blocking his way. He quickly dashed, decaptitaing it. Then he beheaded another. Another again.
A tall skeletal creature stood in his way again; Jin slid through its legs. Another creature gnashes its draws it him. He dashed left, dodging and slashing it at the same time. He slashed again and again and again.

"STOP THE HUMAN FROM GETTING NEAR THE SORCERER!!! ATTACK ALL AT ONCE!"
"WE SHALL!"
"IF THE BOY RETRIEVES HIS TRUE POWER, WE LESSER CREATURES WILL BE DOOMED!"
"I INTEND NOT TO DIE BEFORE TAKING DOWN A HUMAN WITH SUCH CALIBER!"
"AND I REFUSE TO DIE AT ALL!"
"ATTACK YOU SPEECHLESS MONSTERS!"
"THE SORCERER'S SPELL WILL BE GONE SHOULD HE MOVE! STOP THAT HUMAN!"
Jin stood in the middle of thousands. Thousands of creature lunged at him. He simply stood, menacingly as they neared, screaming and roaring at him. "That's twenty nine," he slashed his dagger at his palm,"now that's thirty!"
His blood dripped as a system screen manifested.
[Weapon special attack (Gamma Explosion) upon next blow]
Jin grinned widely as the creatures all came from all directions. As they got in his reach, he quickly leaped into the air. He retained his smirk, dashing further into the air. Creatures jumped in efforts to get him, but most of their attempts were vain. Juxtapositioned, Jin flipped in the air, and bolted down at the slew of monsters.
His dagger electrified as it neared the group; a powerful sensation rushing up his hands. Jin crashed down on the creatures. And after a brief second delay, there was a huge green explosion. A voilent shake ensued. And finally, a pulsing shockwave. The green explosion—though not too large—had spanned accross the area. Beautiful, it was on Jin's part.
Hundreds of the creatures were sent pitching away in pieces. Others were torn radically asunder. Blood mixed. Red, blue, purple—all meshing together. This too was beautiful in Jin's regard; flooding him with a thrill stemmed by a glorious battle.
After landing on a knee, Jin had gotten up again. He bolted toward the Sorcerer who still hadn't moved from the very spot at which he stood from the beginning. Jin smirked widely. Not many were in his way of getting to the Sorcerer. Only a few had stood around said Sorcerer.
Jin jumped and dashed into the air. Then, he dashed again. The defending monsters would not be able to protect their Sorcerer when he had the high grounds Jin hurled his dagger at the Sorcerer from such height.
The dagger had stopped when it had reached close to the Sorcerer's face. Powerful telekinesis. The Sorcerer shifted his attention to Jin—
But wait ... where had the human boy gone? He was only in the air just now. Suddenly, the dagger had vanished from the Sorcerer's eyes. The Sorcerer qailed. Where did he go? Did he flee? No! Not when the battle was turning in his favor! Suddenly, the Sorcerer felt something approaching his body. 'Ahah! From behind!'

The Queen's Guard
Friedrich Schreiner is a proud gefreiter of the Queen's Guard, 2nd Company: the finest fighting infantry on the continent (barring the Temple Guard; but please don't bring that up). Service is honourable but, with the Empire on a peacetime footing, terribly boring. Affairs take a dramatic turn for the worse when a mysterious invader uses a forgotten and taboo magical means to breach the capital, plunging the nation into chaos and endangering the royal family. With events spiraling out of control, Friedrich is entrusted with a critical mission. Will hot lead, cold steel, and his determination be enough to see him through? The Queen's Guard is what I'm calling a black powder fantasy story: it's set in a loose equivalent of the early 18th century (plus or minus a few pieces I decided I wanted or didn't want). Magic exists, but not in a spell-slinging sort of way: it's Earth-shaking undertakings or minor enchantments forged in by master craftsmen, the grand working of a secretive cabal or a slight nudge to the course of a blow. I, the eternal optimist, have a full trilogy in mind. The first book is The Prince's Arquebusier, hence the cover and the title disagreeing! This is my shot at 2021's NaNoWriMo and RR Writathon! I've hitherto been terrible at writing long-form fiction, so this is an effort to break out of that by having some accountability in being supposed to post chapters regularly. Here's hoping it works! I have an outline, but not too much detail. I'll do my best to avoid continuity errors, doing anything glaringly stupid, or otherwise fluffing my lines, but I can't make any promises on that. Please do let me know any feedback! Always happy to improve. [participant in the Nov 2021 Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Seize the Sky
A missed opportunity...A second Chance....Justin McClain, a poor web-developer, is killed on the night he means to propose. Instead of dying he finds himself reborn into a child's body in a strange and alien world. Will he repeat his past mistakes or will he use his knowledge and Seize the Sky?This is going to be my attempt at a Wuxia/Xianxia/Cultivation Novel. I've been reading a ton of Chinese web-novels recently and Couldn't resist trying to write my own. This story will contain lots of action and martial arts and will most likely make the MC pretty OP, but that's sorta the point of wuxia novels. This is also going to be focused on pokemon like animals and will be somewhat along the vein of Long Live Summons although less haremy. It will contain mature content although I have no idea how much. Also, this is a secondary project for me. I've already got a novel on here I don't update enough so I'm treating this as a side project. Be prepared for very sporadic updates.
