《Antagonist's Sidekick Becomes the Hero!》Chapter 46: Rushing Through Summer Break
Advertisement
The year was over. People could go on vacation for two whole months.
But where to go? Emeril, Hector, Lily, and the baby dragon girl all left for the northeastern border, while the other players had other plans already. Yidris had been avoiding Nolan, to where he couldn’t even see her, so he decided to take Ilya, Gina, and Delania to a stronger Dungeon.
During the last few days of school, by using her amazing eyes, Yidris could keep an eye out and run away from Nolan. On the first day of summer break, she had let her guard down and didn’t notice him until he was several yards away. She ended up running away so quickly, she wasn’t paying attention to her surroundings.
So when several shadows were waiting for her around a corner, she couldn’t react fast enough to avoid the magic that was used to incapacitate her. Julius’ men silently took her away.

For Emeril, he was in a better position. They were to take care of a stampede of wild wyverns. Not full blown dragon dangerous, but wyverns were still lesser dragons. They could cause all sorts of problems. And so, the numbers of the wyverns were culled.
They met up with envoys from other groups, such as the Demon Kingdom and even the Beast Kingdom. However, every little warning sign was going off in Emeril’s head. The monsters never ceased and the most of the fighting was done by the four of them, even though the other groups all had close to ten people.
So when they turned on him in the middle of a dangerous fight, he wasn’t that surprised, but he was still upset. Thankfully, Hector’s level 10 swordplay was enough to deal with any scoundrel that wanted to mess with him.
“Who the hell are you?! Why are you at level 10?! Dammit!”

Several of the people responded as such to Hector, but there was no one who was leading them. Instead, it appeared that everyone was almost acting independently. Sure, they were all way above average in strength, but their teamwork was nonexistent.
Even though the three of them and the baby dragon were all special, they couldn’t really hold off against several tens of fighters. And since they were ‘allies,’ they couldn’t be killed. So they were saved when a large dragon came down and stopped the fight.
She apologized for the migrating wyverns and saved Emeril’s group, as her daughter was with him. It would seem this event was still trouble caused by the large dragon.
So the whole plan was in vain and now they would be disciplined. Many of the people were crying out things like ‘Game Over’ and ‘This is unfair!’
But that didn’t stop the consequences of their actions. They were not really ready to kill people, which was nice, but they were still weird. Emeril couldn’t wait to tell Nolan.
>>>
Yidris was practically thrown into a gaudy room where a blue haired pretty boy was. He was currently speaking to someone, but Yidris was surprised to see it was Josine and Ophia!
“Princess!”
“Ah, so you’ve arrived. I just got them under my spell, so I haven’t done anything yet, but after I get you, I will have some fun, hehehe. I hate that I was given such a body, but this power isn’t that bad!”
‘A player?! I have never seen him before! Is he supposed to be in our grade?! A second year?! No…no, this guy…that’s it! He is a freshman next year! No way!’
She readied herself and pulled out two strange rods from some straps on her legs. Her real weapons had been removed, but with these, she should be alright.

She twisted one rod and it lengthened to become a long and thin staff with weird curves. However, when she pulled some string from one end and connected it to the other, the staff bent and became a bow! She had done this so fast, it was amazing!
The other rod opened up and revealed several needle thin rods that were the length of crossbow bolts. She grabbed one and pulled it to the string as she enchanted it with fire magic.
“What?! I have never seen you have that weapon!”
“I don’t mind killing you, player.”
“You!”
For some reason, the incubus started to shiver in place. He had never thought Yidris would come up with something like this, not that she knew he was a player. He knew she was a player because he had done some research.
If he had found out Hector had become level 10, then he would have called the whole thing off, as no matter how many, level 6s would never defeat him. So it wasn't just in this case where he didn't do his research.
A hastily put together plan is easy to pull apart.
No, he thought that Yidris was defenseless. He reached for his weapon, but it wasn’t drawn yet and he got a needle stuck in his arm. The fire burned right through and a small black hole marred the incubus’ skin.
“AAAGH! IT HURTS!!”
He fell down and grasped his arm, giving her the time she needed to rush in and beat him up. Once he became unconscious, she went to the two girls and started to cure them of their bewitched state. It took a little, as she wasn’t well versed in that area, but she soon got it. As she shouldered them to the door, someone’s loud footsteps could be heard.
They backed up just in time to see Bucco smash through the door wielding two flaming heavy weapons. He was in a berserk state as he looked around, but then he stopped after seeing the girls okay and the enemy on the ground.
“Oh. My bad. I guess you are already good.”
Abigail slowly came in with grace, but when she saw that the fight was over, she relaxed, dropping her shoulders. She rushed over and hugged Yidris while her fire was out of control.
Bucco carried the perpetrator while the two girls helped the princess and Saintess to safety.
Yep…things went well…
Except for on Nolan’s side. He was all alone and surrounded by enemies. The Dungeon they had gone to was actually the special island one of the coast, the supposed hardest Dungeon in the game.

Cary Simms: The Fairy Mushroom Forest
From a young age, Cary Simms knew that she wasn't like the other boys her age. She didn't know why or how that was, but it seemed apparent to the bullies of her school. They would often call her names, chase after her after school, and beat her up when they could catch her. Her only protection, besides escape, was in the words of the Good Book. But that was before she stumbled into the supposedly haunted house at the end of her street. When a mysterious ring and a drawing on the back wall of the post office opened up a whole new world for her, things quickly went from weird to scary. At a new school, in a new world, surrounded by people who had access to magic, all Cary could think of was how to escape the witches that had her trapped there. It was only having her best friend by her side that gave her any comfort at all. ***This is my first attempt at a middle grade book, and would appreciate feedback. Please note, this is a second draft, and might not represent the final product.***

The Nightcore Trilogy
Going to space was supposed to be the adventure of a lifetime, but for Reece Danielson and his crew, it was only the beginning. As the fresh astronauts aboard the Zhengzhou International Space Station start their on-the-job training, Reece is shown a discovery that changes his entire worldview. It isn’t long before a tragic accident aboard the station sets off a series of events that not only puts the crew in danger but at odds with each other. The events quickly escalate into a man-made apocalyptic incident on the surface of the planet. A virulent plague is prematurely released which transforms everyone into flesh-eating undead, and that is only the beginning of the troubles. There are far worse things down there than zombies and possibly a few of them lurk on the station itself. The Nightcore Trilogy thematically begins with a heavy sci-fi feel coupled to a gritty space-based horror mystery. The story's layers are slowly peeled back, evolving into something much more supernatural, mythological, and high-fantasy-based. It's a mix of elements from survival horror, zombie apocalypses, ancient mythologies, supernatural stories, and harem anime. It contains semi-descriptive sex scenes (traditional and non-traditional), descriptions of gore, profanity, and adult situations, so I recommend it for mature and open-minded audiences only.

Mistwalker Xyn and the Cult of Eldritch Evil
[Participant in the 2020 Royal Road Writathon Challenge] Having just graduated to adulthood, Xyn is salty about how his lackluster Awakening has resulted in his current derided status within his clan and tribe, particularly when compared to the successes of his litter-siblings. The revelation of the truth about his heritage sets in motion events leading to him traveling to human lands on a secret mission for his tribe. Cringeworthy moments and awkwardness will ensue as young Xyn (an anthropomorphic tiger-kin), raised in the sheltered life of a martial artist, navigates human society with a trusty sidekick or two picked up along the way and might just save his corner of the world while he's at it. Gore will be minimally present as needed to tell a fantasy martial arts tale. There won't be any sexual content, but mild/vague suggestive themes may occur occasionally due to the nature of Xyn's mission and his insecurities. Story should be teen appropriate. Thanks for reading! [Background for the cover art is courtesy GG-graphics via Pixabay.]
