Journey Towards Greatness Chapter 998
Advertisement
Ignoring the awkward silence between him and the old man, Julian took his seat on the edge of the cliff and wound his fishing rod, and tossed it into the powerful current that is crashing into the cliff.
The pokemons he is looking for can only found under these kinds of strong currents, as the currents swept across boulders, the bait under the water acted like a living thing attracting the attention of pokemons swimming in the deep waters.
Julian kept waiting, waiting for a pokemon to take his bait and he didn't have to wait much longer, his bait was taken as he felt a strong pull at the other end of the string, feeling the power behind the pull Julian knew he caught a powerful pokemon.
He started to reel in his catch, it took a few minutes before his catch finally surfaced, the pokemon jumped out of the water shining under the bright sunlight as its scale reflected it over the cliff.
The old man who was fishing beside him was suddenly shocked by seeing the pokemon that Julian just caught, he couldn't believe his own eyes, he thought it was a myth but right now the pokemon is right in front of him.
Many over the time have tried to catch this pokemon but none were successful and the pokemon soon turned into a myth but now it has been caught for the first time.
Julian looked at his catch in surprise as well as it was a massive golden Magikarp, it was even bigger than the one he caught in Kanto, looking at this Magikarp, Julian could tell that this one is over level 40 and one of the strongest wild Magikarp he has ever seen but this was not the pokemon he is after.

He pulled up the Magikarp and cut it loose, the golden Magikarp dove into the water again and disappeared, and only two people were fortunate enough to see it.
The old man next to Julian is still in shock with his bulging eyes staring at Julian and confused by the choice that Julian just made.
Old Man "Wh...Wh...Wha...What ha...have you ju...just done?"
The Old man shuddered and exclaimed.
Julian turned and looked at the old man notching that he was in shock.
Julian "What happened Old man?"
Julian asked totally confused about the current situation.
Old Man "That Magikarp that you just caught and released is a myth, many people over the year tried to catch it but none were successful, people thought that it was just a myth made by fishermen over the year"
Julian "Oh! cool"
Julian said and tossed his bait back into the water to catch his next pokemon.
Old Man "Oh! cool? Nothing is cool about releasing that Magikarp, do you even know how much fame it would bring if people in the fishermen community knew about it, you would have become world-famous!"
The Old man said while still astonished by Julian's decision to release the Magikarp.
Julian "Oh No! Anyway, I am busy right now, I can think about it later"
Julian said and went back to fishing ignoring the astonished Old man, while the Magikarp might seem like a big deal to others, Julian didn't care much, someone like him who has seen and caught pokemon that are rarer and dangerous than the Magikarp, though the Magikarp was a surprising catch Julian was not that taken back by its appearance.
Julian continued to fish and the old man sighed and returned back to his spot and did the same, Julian caught more pokemons as he waited, he even caught the ones he was looking for but as he wanted the better ones he let them go.

The Old man kept observing Julian's action, even after seeing Julian catch a Clauncher, he saw the young man cut it loose, he didn't understand what Julian was after but decided to just watch.
After hours Julian finally caught a pokemon he found, a Skrelp came out and landed on the ground and suddenly used Acid on Julian, he jumped to the side and sent out Honedge.
This is Honedge's first battle, even though not official, he could still gain some experience, being immune to Poison and resistant to Dragon-type attacks, Honedge was the perfect match for a pokemon like Skrelp.
Skrelp shot another Acid at Honedge but he didn't dodge, the Acid blob fell on him and slid down his body falling on the ground, the acid touched the ground and sizzled.
Julian "Fury Cutter"
Honedge charged forward and slashed at Skrelp multiple times, with no experience in battle as it being very young, it couldn't counter those moves from Honedge, Skrelp was sent rolling on the ground.
Julian didn't waste any time and threw a Pokeball at Skrelp and caught it, the Pokeball shook multiple times before stopping with a confirmation beep.
With one catch successful, Julian was quite happy, he decided to go back and come tomorrow, he is mentally tired after waiting for such a long time catching pokemon and releasing them back into the water.

The Traitor Games
Welcome to the Traitor Games, and congratulations on your invitation to join as one of the races putting on a show for the galaxy. Your species has been judged as too violent for integration into the Galactic Conglomerate and thus the decision has been made to relegate you to a probationary period during which members of your species will be pitted against each other in games of lies and betrayal. Unfortunate, but the great thing about a probationary period is that it can end! How can we do that; you might be asking. Well, that's easy, if those participants can earn enough points through playing the games, they can potentially buy out your probationary time. Of course, other rewards will also be on offer for success in the games, and if none of your species chooses to be selfless, well then it just goes to show that you wouldn't have been a good fit for us anyway. All those on Earth unlucky enough to not be chosen to become part of one of the most popular shows on Galactic Television, fear not. We will be streaming the various games your race is participating in all across the world. Should we run out of participants, even with our most generous three life system, we will draw more from the population. Good Luck! Noah Landry is one of these participants, he just doesn't know it yet. He blacks out while walking to the local bar McCaffery's, and finds himself, somewhere else. He's wearing clothing he doesn't remember putting on and rocking an absolute banger of a headache. Now he needs to figure out where he is, what's going on, and how he can get out of the Traitor Games. [Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

Barry Buckman and the Interdimensional Beastiary
In the beginning of 2021 I did something possibly stupid, I hired a ghostwriting company to write one of the many ideas going on in my head since I was busy with my job. Unfortunately... They were not the greatest, after the first writer assigned to me left I was stuck with... We'll just call her 'Karen'. Karen didn't want to listen to my feedback on chapters, and turned what was supposed to be a long story about a young guy surviving on an island of supernatural and crazy stuff, and becoming stronger from it, was turned into a not so great romance novel.I plan on releasing another one, probably after this that will be Barry Buckman Redux, which will be me writing it out the way I originally envisioned it.

Virtuous Sons: A Greco Roman Xianxia
Book one now available on Kindle. The saying goes that when a man is born the Fates weave his destiny and swaddle him in it. Then one day the man dies, and the swaddle becomes a shroud. Heaven moves on. It is audacity to question the Fates. Olympus is Olympus. The land of men is the land of men. To transgress that, to cross the line of divinity and scale Olympus Mons? To defy the Fates and cast off their threads? That is hubris. It’s a mark that every philosopher bears plainly on their soul.
