Searching for Fruit
◇
◇
A few days later.
I had left the mines and come to Baozaria, the town that was close to Baozard’s territory.
Baozard had told me that it was a completely normal town…
“…This is…normal…?”
I muttered as soon as I stepped foot into it.
After all, all over town, people were partying and drinking as if there was some kind of festival going on.
Well, it was a normal festival, at least.
But it was hard to believe that it was like this all of the time.
Perhaps I just had bad timing.
Regardless…I might have trouble finding a room.
As I wondered about this… A drunk man grabbed me by the shoulder.
“Hey, don’t just stand there! Come and drink with us! The owner says it’s on the house!”
“…It seems like everyone is celebrating. Did something happen?”
“Didn’t you hear? …Lord Baozard has returned to us! How could anything be more worthy of celebration!”
I see.
I had wondered about this timing, and it turned out to be because of Baozard’s return.
From what I heard, Baozard was seen as more of a guardian deity than a dragon to be feared.
‘They worship you, huh…’
‘I helped them before, and so they started bringing me offerings.’
‘I see. And now you’re like a god.’
‘Yes. Of course, I try to make up for it by helping them whenever monsters attack.’
Apparently, Baozard was coexisting with the residents very nicely.
I had assumed that dragons were all monsters that attacked you as soon as you encountered them…but Baozard was clearly different.
All the dragons I had met up until now couldn’t even talk. I suppose there was a great variety when it came to dragons as well.

I thought about this as I walked through the town…then the slimes started shouting.
‘Where is the fruit!?’
‘There’s no fruit here!’
As scouted around, the slimes had spread out throughout the town and searched for the fruits.
And while the town was still celebrating, all of the shops were open.
If there was a forest with fruits nearby, surely there would be a fruit stand or two in town… But apparently, there was not a single one.
The slimes could not have been any more serious as they searched for a fruit store… It reminded me of that time when they angrily hunted the monsters who were eating the delicious vegetables. And yet, they were unable to find any… So there really weren’t any after all.
Well, maybe there would be some in a vegetable store?
Well, maybe there would be some in a vegetable store?
And so I went to a nearby one and asked.
“Hello. Do you sell any fruits?”
“Fruits… When they are in season, yes. But I don’t have any right now. What kind of fruits?”
“Like this.”
I said as I offered him a picture I had created through Thoughtography.
The owner looked at it and scowled.
“Ahh. This is the fruit that grows on the dragon god’s mountain. Of course, they don’t sell that in town.”
So, it wasn’t something that we could buy.
Well, I could just send the slimes to the mountains and they could eat there.
As I considered this, the slimes started talking again.
‘He said they don’t sell them!’
‘What! Then let’s go get some!’
‘Yes! Let’s go!’
Apparently, they were heading towards the mountain before I had even given them an order.
The problem was, were they allowed to just go and take those fruits without permission…?

“Are people allowed to go there and pick them?”
“No. Those fruits are for the dragon god. We keep track of how many there are, so we’ll no if someone takes any.”
They even counted them…that was some heavy security.
Why would they go to such lengths…?
“So, uh…Baoza-…this dragon god is protecting the fruits?”
“No, the people of the town protect them. It’s not like the dragon god ordered us to. But the fruits will become its food. And so humans must not be allowed to take them.”
I see. So they were just doing it themselves.
If the fruits weren’t protected by Baozard’s order, then I wouldn’t be able to send the slimes to get them directly.
Though, I doubted the slimes would get caught if they did sneak in…
But considering their numbers and appetites, they might just wipe the forest clean of all its fruits.
That wouldn’t go unnoticed.

Exuperius [DISCONTINUED]
Terravest. The northernmost continent of the world known by many names of legend, but is most commonly reffered to as Athora, has, for eons, served as the land of exiles. Human criminals, dark elves, grayskinned orcs and dwarves that preffer mining with machinery over the traditional pickaxe alike, have come to call this half-frozen hellhole their home. It is a land of great strife, calamity and crisis, where one legendary tale ends only to begin the next, heroes fall down and villains find themselves thrown into lava. Around seventy years ago, a legendary figure appeared out of seemingly nowhere and conquered three human nations, forming a kingdom worthy enough of being called a small empire. However, at the eve of his heirs ascension, the legend breathed his last, leaving this same bloated, chaotic realm without the pillar that kept it together. Already, the carrion nobility, still spiteful for being denied their "rightful" place below the sun, rise up and gather at the court, each eager to consolidate their own power in these troubled times. Tempers flare, power is exercised without restraint and no one expects the hedonistic prince to succeed at keeping the realm together. Alas, as is often the case with such tales, not everything seems to be as it might at first appear and the vain lords of the realm may yet come to regret their carrion will. --- The Content Warnings are there for a good reason. ---

Multiverse of Marvel
-------------- "Let's leave my origins. We both have unspeakable origins. But the problem is I know of your origins. Galan of Taa." John said. Galactus' eyes squinted as John said his real name out loud. He never expected someone totally out of nowhere knew his actual name. "Never expected an unknown guy would know my origins. So what of it? I don't think it matters where I came from." Galactus replied. "It doesn't. You did what you had to do to survive. But the problem is you made a deal with the devil." John replied. Galactus looked at John with more stoic eyes now. He had done many things in the past and he made many bad decisions. He just wasn't sure what John was referring to so he was silent. John seeing that Galactus was silent and refused to speak said "Black Winter is coming." -------------When a cinephile and an otaku/weeb travels through dimensions and gets a system which can only be described as overpowered but comes with restrictions. At first he was overjoyed with the system but soon realizes that he is in a very dangerous world where his life was at risk all the time. (There will be no change in the canon until the New York War ends) Disclaimer : I am not an economist so I might have done some mistakes in the economics section of the story. If you have suggestions to make it better you can leave in the comments. Warning - The MC won't be OP from the start itself and will grow to a powerful character in due time. The starting feels a bit odd because I am totally new to writing a novel and I don't have an editor so the conversations and descriptions might be little stiff. I have been trying to improve. The romance in the story is very little and I understand that its badly written. I am sorry about that but no need to worry. It doesn't have any effect in the story. The story is assumed on the fact that the reader at least knows the plot of Marvel movies and some popular animes. All the other elements are explained as much as possible. P.S. This story is based on pure Marvel Multiverse

Knight’s Fate: Knight and Princess
When war finally ended, the Arcadians sought retribution from the nightmares they had suffered from demonkind. A noble Princess had taken her mother's mantle in order to uphold peace between the two races so humanity could co-exist with their fellow demons in a kingdom without strife, but war paved the road to peace in blood and such path is but a fragile thread awaiting to be ignited by the flames of hatred. Another great war awaits, but will she be able to avert it?Second iteration of the Knight's Fate saga chronologically speaking. Yes I'm starting from the second because the first was an utter failure when I tried to write it, it just didn't fit the mood of a fantasy novel unlike this one. Though don't worry this doesn't mean you can't enjoy this one before I write the first. This is the first story I've actually published so I appreciate any feedback, be it good or bad just let me know what you think.
