《Emperor Saga》Chapter 27.5 : Ravenking
Advertisement
Here you go, one more chapter. Thank you for reading and the chapter already proofreaded.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________
My name is Craphto Ravenking.
I was a Great General of the kingdom of Barsa.
For more than 500 years, my kingdom always in a war against the dark side.
Back in my younger days, I was known as 'Mad Beast'
That is because I was always on the frontline rushing at my enemy to slaughter them.
To survive on the frontlines wasn't an easy feat.
None of my colleagues on the frontlines ever survived more than 5 battles.
And anyone that survived turned up crippled with severed limbs here and there.
But I on the other hand always survived and returned triumphantly.
I could achieve all that because of two reasons.
First, I was a genius fighter.
Because of my low status I was forced to fight on the frontlines when I was 12 years old.
But even with my young age I didn't become a burden to my older comrades.
Since I was a genius fighter I survived until the 15th battle.
But even as a genius fighter,
If the general in charge of the army got careless
And the army was wiped out.
There was no way anyone could survive even as a genius fighter.
Because the dark army never took prisoners.
They would kill any survivors.
That happened after my 15th battle.
But instead of dying, I survived.
There is a second reason I have survived until now.
I had a strange power
Where I can regrow my limbs
Or survive any fatal attack.
Basically the power of an immortal.
Unfortunately it was not that powerful of a power.
It still felt I would die if anyone decided to behead me.
The pain is still there
And it will take more than 24 hours to regrow a limb.
I felt like hell waiting for my wound to recover.
***************************
With my power I survived on the frontlines.
Until I was 20 years old I was finally noticed by the higher ups.
With much debate among the nobles I could finally rise a rank.
And since that time my rank kept on rising.
I rose through the ranks even with my low status because at this time talent was needed more than some noble’s blood.
At the age of 35 I finally rose to rank of Great General.
Even though it was a great honor, a Great General in the kingdom of Basra is destined to fight in the offense army.
The army that will penetrate the dark lord kingdom.
I left my wife and my two children for a better tomorrow.
My wife was lovely and beautiful and both of my sons were cute and strong.
Since my kingdom was always in war and strife even nobles lived in poverty.
A normal house was all I could afford even as Great General.
It was a nice house with a flower field on the left
and a river could be seen on the far right.
The house was simple but had a great view.
I wish to live a normal life here with my family after the war.
With the intent to return, I went to battle against the Dark Lord.
I fought on the frontlines for five years and finally I breached the enemy’s defences all the way to the heart of the dark kingdom.
In front of me was the Dark Lord commanding a million of his soldiers.

I commanded my army to march on ahead to fight the final battle.
In the final battle, my army and the Dark Lord’s army fought equally
But our side managed to somehow come out on top.
My battle against the Dark Lord had almost come to an end.
Both armies had taken huge losses but victory was something I could achieve today.
That was until the Dark Lord unleashed his ultimate attack
'PLANET BOOM'
A dark light erupted from the dark lord and I was blinded by it
then I heard a huge noise.
BOOOM!!!
When the light faded the lower half of my body was already gone
Thanks with my power I survived
but I knew that was not for long.
And when I looked at the corpses of my comrades and the dark army lying around me.
It seems everyone died from the dark lord’s final attack
and I thought this is it for me.
And then I saw him
The dark lord stood before me
But it seemed he was almost at his limit.
"Now I did it, I shouldn't have use that last attack. Now I need more than 300 years to recover my mana."
The dark lord was trying to stand and walk but failed.
I thought he was also on the verge of death
If I can land a final attack on him the war will be over.
And that was when I mustered the last of my strength.
I held my sword with my right hand.
While using my left hand to throw my body towards the dark lord.
I gritted my teeth holding back the pain while mustering the last of my strength for the final attack.
"DARK LORD!!!"
Noticing me, the dark lord seemed to panic
I thought he didn't have any mana left
But for some reason he managed to used one last skill
'Random Jump'
A dark light surrounded us
And that is when I thought
Crap I missed my last chance.
************
When I regained my consciousness I was in some random wood
And death seemed imminent
I failed to kill the dark lord
He will just reincarnate somewhere in the world
"M1573r , 4r3 y0u 0k4y?"
A kid approached me
What kind of parent would let their child play in the woods?
I always scold my children even if they try to go outside of the city.
Since it is a dangerous world where monsters are everywhere.
Even when I was small my master would always scold me when I tried to go outside of the city.
"Don't you know you are worth 5 gold?"
was what that guy said, I think he was actually fond of me.
But I changed my mind when he sold me to the army for 8 gold.
So that guy just wanted profit
If I died before he could sell me he would not make a profit.
That was it, he raised me for profit.
"M1573r?"
Ah, I forgot about him, nobody told him someone with the lower half of his body gone should be dead already huh?
He didn't get scared at all, he sure is a brave kid.
Whatever, I will just use my remaining life for this one last skill.
I never had any mana but I can still cast magic with my life.
It was the skill to transfer my life experience to other.
"Kid, can you come closer?"
Advertisement
It seems, he didn't understand me, I don't understand his words either.
I just used a hand gesture to make the kid come closer.
As the kid got close enough, I put my right hand on the kid’s head and cast the skill.
'Memory Transfer'
Now the kid will receive all of my life experience.
Now he will inherit all of my battle skills, my story and my will
As I used the skill my body faded away
and vanished into thin air.
"Daniel, where are you!!"
*****
My name is Daniel
When I was in school I was called the game god.
I was known as the best player in all kinds of games
especially games that specialized in sword and magic.
Why? Because back then when I was a 6 year old kid
A weird dying middle age man approached me.
And he transferred all of his memories to me.
That was when I became interested in sword and magic stuff.
I read all kinds of books about sword and magic
and at some point I played a game about swords and magic.
I became obsessed or maybe curious
About that Craphto guy’s world.
But none of the books I read and games I played
showed anything about that guy’s world.
I was sure he was truly from a different dimension.
Or maybe from another planet I don't know.
But I know one thing
That Dark Lord’s last skill, 'Random Jump' was too random.
Because it turned out t.hey both or at least that Craphto guy jumped to a different dimension or planet
By the way, even though I now know how to cast magic from that guy memory
I can't do it because magic doesn't exist in this world.
And no, I never tried using my life force to use magic because obviously I don't want to shorten my life.
And yeah, I never tried that guy’s regrowing limbs power because I will lose a lot if that doesn't actually work.
Also, if the Dark Lord also jumped into this world I pity him.
Because in a world without magic that guy is just a normal person.
And his knowledge from the previous world is almost completely useless.
I really do pity him
*********
Nothing turned out well when I tried to become a real adult.
And to make it worse my debts kept on increasing until it was hard for me to get back.
If this was a shounen manga, that Cr.aphto guy’s memory was enough for me to become a hero
But no, money talks in this world.
That guy’s knowledge and godlike combat ability was useless in this world.
That guy’s memory did help me a little in the game but that was it.
I haven't played games for 4 years now to chase my dream
Nothing fancy like richest man in the world,
I just want to become a successful businessman.
Now, in front of me is Emperor Saga’s cube console
Waiting for me to assemble it.
When the game turned public I was excited but at that time I was busy.
Maybe because I am trying to run from reality, I bought the cube on a whim.
Maybe I should try enhancing my business ability there?
What a great idea I should have done it earlier.
Yeah, that's it, I want to play the game just to enhance my business ability.
For that reason, I will choose a merchant.
***********
Wow, what a game.
I heard about it before but I never thought it would be THIS real.
All of my five senses work like in the real world.
It’s so real, it is as if I am living in a different world.
But I hope the game doesn't develop a sense of pain that will be scary.
Okay, I will try it once just to be sure.
................Good, no pain I just feels numb.
For a newbie avatar I got newbie sword, attire and some healing potions.
But to become a merchant I don't need to leave the city.
I will just work part time until I get the merchant quest.
Hmm....Let's look around
Then, suddenly a bearded soldier approached me and started to talk.
"Greetings newbie, are you getting the hang of it? How about doing some tasks for me for some reward? For a man, the sword does the talking, how about some monster extermination quests?"
"Hello Grutaz, working hard I see but I want to become a merchant, sorry about that."
"......A merchant eh? How disappointing, I see great potential in you."
"By the way how’s your kid? Doing good?"
Without replying to me, the soldier just walked away.
How arrogant, he used to be quite friendly.
......Wait, how do I know about him again?
It’s not like his name appeared above his head like in the normal games.
In this game, to learn someone’s name, that someone needs to tell me their name first. In an NPC’s case, I need to raise intimacy to learn their name.
Maybe I read it in the forum, surely he didn't reply because our intimacy was too low.
Wait, why did that guy ask about monster extermination anyway?
Users that spawn in the city of Mafoso mostly want to become a merchants.
I shall bring this matter to the forum later.
"Hi Grit, how are you?"
"Hello there Yasmut."
...................I think I was too excited before. Now I know every NPC’s name in the city hahaha...
And for a game I played for the first time, it seemed strangely familiar.
Maybe because I have been watching the broadcast and everything about the game since 10 years ago.
As I wandered around exploring the city, finally I arrived at that place.
My eyes wide open and my grip on the newbie sword loosened, letting the sword fall to the ground.
When I came back to my sense I was already on my knees.
Because what lied in front of me was a scene too familiar for me.
It was impossible I saw this on the broadcast.
It was impossible I read about this in the forum.
A nice house with a flower field on the left
and a river can be seen on the far right.
A simple house that has a great view
And I saw a middle-aged woman looking at both of her sons training with the sword.
Both the middle-aged woman and her sons’ faces were way too familiar for me.
Now I understand, that familiar feeling when I met those NPCs.
It's not something I saw on the broadcast.
It's not something I read on the forum.
It's something I saw in the memories that I received.
Now I realized
This world
Used to be that guy’s world
Craphto Ravenking’s world.

An Unwavering Craftsman
Given the hereditary nature of classes, everyone expects Damien—the child of two high-tiered adventurers—to be granted a high-tier combat class of his own. Expectations are betrayed, however, when Damien finds himself instead saddled with a crafting class of the lowest possible tier: [Neophyte Tailor]. Left practically crippled compared to those with better classes, Damien wants to avoid becoming a pawn in the machinations of the nobility, desiring only to grind his level in peace while wondering why the usual rules of inheritance were broken. Was it his desire to excel by his own effort, rather than an unearned blessing from a god? Did the Five take offence at his opinions on the unfairness of hereditary classes? Or maybe it was something to do with the alien voice that intruded on his ceremony? A voice that offers great power, and freedom from the tyranny of the Five, but that never names its price. This story is litRPG-lite. While the class someone possesses controls most of their lives, people don't get dinged at for every level they gain, nor can they see their status without undergoing a special ritual. The MC has no romantic interest. Crafting is merely a way to game the system, and doesn't feature heavily in the story, aside from a few descriptions on how they're carrying out the system abuse. There is, on one unfortunate occasion, maths. The pace is quick. This was a participant in the Spring 2022 writathon. (i.e. it was posted as-written at high speed. I may give it another editing pass in the future.)
