《Old Cultivation Record》Chapter 36 - Lazy Kid

“You got'em?” Taylor asks with a deadpan expression.
“Yeah. One of our guys nabbed him on the road.” Brollie says, his voice almost uninterested.
“Fuck. Now that I think about it, this guy was just a delivery dude. Why the fuck would I be involved in that?” Taylor asks, feeling dumb.
“Yeah, I don't know man. You seemed kind of out of it last time I saw you. Thought you could use a road trip.” Brolly admits before laughing out loud. “Besides, it's better than sitting on your own wallowing in your own crap.” Brolly says honestly.
“This isn't really about being a man, Taylor. We're all human. A kill is going to take a toll. No matter how tough you are.” Brolly says with a sigh.
“Fuck, are you looking out for me?” Taylor asks with some disbelief. “Whatever, I'm the best that there ever was. A few kills won't do much.” Taylor says, pushing on.
“Whatever, bro. At least you got to chill at home for a few days.” Brolly says before continuing. “Stay a little longer before coming back to town in a week or so. There's a job waiting for you when you get here.” Brolly says, getting back to business. “And this is from the higher-ups.” He says, gravity in his voice.
“Alright. Thanks for the heads up. See you later.” Taylor says before ending the call.

Taylor's mom opens the door and walks into the house.
“Wow, would you look at that. This place is spotless.” Taylor's mom says with a smile. “Taylor, get out here.” She calls out.
Taylor walks out of his room and sees his mom in the hallway. “What do you think? Pretty clean, right?” Taylor says with some pride.

“Pretty clean, indeed. All the mess you made as you were growing up is almost worth it. I'm proud of you, son. Now you can hold your head up high, with the knowledge that you were able to clean a house once. Good job.” Taylor's mom says with some sarcasm before giving Taylor a pat on the head.
Taylor didn't care about the sarcasm. He saw that his mom was happy and he was glad for it.
“Thanks, mom.” Taylor says with a smile.
“Now get out before I see you make a mess of it.” Taylor's mom says playfully.
Taylor gives an awkward laugh. “I'll be leaving tomorrow. Put up with it for a day.” Taylor says before heading back to his room.
“How ‘bout you cook dinner too?” Taylor's mom calls out from the kitchen.
“I'm sure you can handle it.” Taylor says before closing the door.
Taylor's mom shakes her head. “Lazy kid. I could use a hand making dinner; but no one ever asks, do they?” She mumbles to herself.

Mage Among Superheroes
Turlough is a mage. He also happens to be an orc, generally lauded as being less intelligent than humans. He was unfortunately born with the Curse of the Barbarian, meaning that he can’t level up except through combat- which greatly hinders his ability to show he can be a proper mage. In a world with necromancers, dragons, invading armies, and all sorts of other monsters he would still be able to advance quickly, but unfortuantely… that world is not his world. An unprecedented peace reigns across the land, and in the last several decades there’s been little use for people capable of fighting- and thus little reason for people to fight him. So when he sees a portal in his master’s study he takes it, hoping to find a horde of demons or something equally foolish to combat at low level. But instead he ends up in a strange city full of skyscrapers and people running around in colorful outfits. Superheroes- and of course supervillains as well. What dangers and opportunities could await him in such a strange and unfamiliar world? Only time will tell. Inspired by many things in the superhero genre, and Super Minion specifically- though while the setting will share some standard elements, it is an original setting that will hopefully be as engaging as many of the other universes. Schedule: One chapter each Monday/Thursday, approx. 2000 words.

The Weaver's Wrath
Millennia have passed since the end of the God Wars. Mankind's heroes of these wars, the powerful Luminescents, have since become the rulers of the lands, relying on their ancestors' deeds to fuel their own ambitions. The Church itself has fractured since the death of their Goddess. Now it has shifted its focus to a new power - the descendents of the men and women who had received her blessing in the past - the Luminescents. However, with the death of the Goddess Selene, their own abilities began to lessen in quality with each successive generation, leaving them grasping desperately at whatever they can; money, lands, power. Sevrath was born in a time far different than that of ages past. Much of the continent was under the rule of the powerful Luminescent rulers. The Gods were dead and gone; the age of man had begun. Only the Desolate Lands lay unconquered and resolute, a relic of the power of Deimos, the God of Death and Destruction. So when he is found near the borders of the Desolate Lands, what does it mean? Is he some spawn of demon, like many of the townsfolk of Carthal believe, or something else altogether? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This will not necessarily be something that is updated often.
