《Down the Deep Blue Hole》Volume 1 Chapter 20: Kimi no Na Wa
Advertisement
Hey all. It has been a wonderful journey. To all those out there who listen to my rants, my groans, my monologues, thank you so much. It has truly been a great time, I had so much fun.
I was a researcher in my past life, a core member of my alliance during the First Biological War(BW1). Some of my creations which escaped kinda went ham on the ecosystem, so as the one deemed as 'responsible', I had to fix it. Politics. *sigh* So I died, an anti-climactic death, all alone, at the hands of my incomplete creation. My greatest regret, was that I never really got to finish the anime and find out if the straw hat boy really did become the pirate king. Episode 1500 and still going...
Just kidding! I mean, that is the number 2, but number 1 is my regret of not being able to complete my creation. So I got a second chance. As a dungeon. Welp, it has truly been a great run. I enjoyed it all.
Why am I having a recollection? Because......(drum roll please)........
I AM GOING TO DIE FOR REAL!!!
Like seriously, goblins! Freaking 0.5 meter tall goblins! With big stone clubs! Nowaynowaynowaynoway! No way I am going to beat that! They are giants you know?! Bloody green and disgusting giants! Yes, they are disgusting! They look like a freaking..... goblin. I mean, there is no good way to describe it. They look like the classic goblins you find out there. A small ugly looking humanoid monster, two upward facing canines that jut from the mouth, green skin with enough defects to make even the most resilient of people puke... Ok maybe not that much but you get the point. They are freaking ugly.
There's just one issue. One tiny issue. My larva do jack sh*t against these f*ck*rs. Like seriously, we can't do anything. If you are bitten by an ant, will you die? No. Does it hurt? Yes. Will it impede your movement? No again. To the goblins, even the best of us larva are like ants. An annoyance, but not a problem in the slightest. For the bees, well, we are going to need to sacrifice numbers if we even want to minutely live. How so many goblins lived for so long? I don't even wanna know. That dungeon must have killed many other dungeons and enslaved their monsters and creatures for food. Cannibalism even.

"I leave it to your judgement. I trust you, honey"(bee)
She's got my trust in me, huh...
So the number one tactic when it comes to dealing with goblins? Swarm it. Aim for the nose, eyes, ears and groin. Ignore all losses and sting it with all you've got. I will remember you all for your sacrifices. No sarcasm here. I can't even feel sympathy for them when they are not my own monsters, what kind of ally am I?
I hate my dampened dungeon emotions....
--------------------------------------
---3rd Person POV---
In the life of a normal human being, one may or may not encounter what is known as a bee. A bee is known for its sting, its particularly painful sting. A last resort, since once the stinger is in, the bee will not be able to take it out of the victim. If it does, it will die. But the main issue is the painful sting. So here comes the hypothetical question. What if you were stung by a bee up the nose, in the ear, into the eye and bang slap into the balls.
The answer: Not good. Or so the goblins can testify. Those screams(or extremely loud 'Giiiii!', goblins don't seem to be able to produce such high pitched noises) Still,the loses on both sides are equally heavy.
For one, the bees have to sacrifice their lives to have any effect on the goblins at all, not to mention that there are spiders lurking in every corner now. A wildly swinging 'club' of a goblin easily knocks out 5-7 bees in the air, allowing the spiders to finish them off. Those who climb their bodies are slapped without mercy. They met a gruesome end. The luckier ones were not quite as fortunate as well, they were on a suicide mission after all.
They would immediately jam their stinger in and start biting at everything they could. The pain is....great. To say the least. The writhing and still very much alive goblins can testify. There were strangely no female goblins, not that any of the two dungeons noticed in the chaos of battle. They were hurridly evacuating all those in the previous cave while the front line slows the goblins down. Slow down they did, but the goblins are still moving. The number of goblins that died were only in the single digits, incapacitated ones as well, but there were close to 30 goblins present. A fairly large dent, but not for long. Close to a hundred bees covered the floor like a blanket, and many more would join them. It was only a matter of time before the goblins reached the cave. And on to the next.

As if possesed(which probably was the case), the goblins started to speed up and ran towards the cave. The entrance was large enough for the goblins, so they entered with ease as the last of the larvae entered the other tunnel. The remaining bees of the suicide group were not as lucky. With their exit blocked(by a particularly fat goblin sitting on the entrance), they had no way to escape. Embracing their deaths, they continued with their last assigned mission to their last breath.
The buzzing of wings no longer filled the air.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
For the love of god, those goblins are scary. Thank goodness our dear parasigot was there to eliminate the goblins who could not fight back. The bees did not have the power to finish them off, and have goblins resistant to our venom would make it very bad. Luckily, that guy had hopped on to a passing bee and made a beeline for the exit before the goblins came in. Dude, those goblins murdered those bees. Like, those warrior bees are as large as giant hornets in my past life you know? They are huge! Okay, maybe a little smaller. I mean, if I was human, I would smash them together too but...no one wants to antagonize bees. But those buggers seem very resiliant to pain. Thank goodness, the tunnel is too small for them to make it though.
The Spider Dungeon has called for aid from its allies. Goblins are now officially part of this Dungeon Battle! Since there is terrain that will hinder one or more of the parties' access to key areas, the terrain has been altered.
Oh F*CK!!!!!!
--------------------------------------------------------------------
---3rd Person POV---
Stone slowly crumble away into dust as the tunnel enlarged for the goblins to pass through. The tunnel was closer to the bee's dungeon, and the goblins immediately rushed there. They saw the queen bee clutching the core, protecting it. Not that it would help. The lead goblin drooled with greed(affected by its dungeon), and ambled towards it to destroy it. The rewards of killing such a dungeon will not be small. The other dungeon was definitely weaker, unable to do anything but watch. The goblin raised its stone club, ... and struck.
And then....................
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Gaaaaahhhhhhhh!!!!! It hurrrrts! Why the heck?!?!?! No! NO! NO!!! You will not! I will NOT!! I will never allow it! Never! EVER!
"You will NEVER take from ME again! YOU will NEVER harm MY FAMILY again! FOR SHE IS MY OATHSWORN! SHE IS TAPIRA!!!!!!"

Ari-os
Ari-os is a story about a 21-year-old woman who woke up in an abandoned lab with little to no memories of her past. Turns out she is in the future now and the world became a very different place from what it used to be. Magic appeared in the world, changing it forever, and humanity created a way to control it, allowing people to increase their physical and mental abilities while shaping the world according to their will, but something caused civilization to regress, becoming a mere shadow of what it used to be. In her journey to figure out who she was, what happened to the world, and how much time has passed, Kali will discover ancient ruins, fight horrendous creatures, find how humanity has fared in this harsh world and meet with droids that walk the land as remnants from the technology that the world once had. In this story, you are going to see Litrpg elements such as a system with panels, skills, and stats (Although not inside a game, the main character has access to information about her growth much like an RPG). Survival elements will be present but it won't be the focus of the story, but crafting and enchanting on the other hand are going to be quite prevalent. Please, do let me know what you think in a comment or review, all criticisms are welcome. Also, English is not my native language so if you see any grammar mistakes, do tell me :) Chapters of ~2700 words each.

Strings Of The Orchestrator
Intro: The system swept over the earth, wrenching everyone from their normal lives and throwing them into new worlds made of chaos and insanity. The rules that once governed the world have shifted. The laws that once bound people, both the dangerous and the kind, have vanished. Now, life is all about advancement, pushing your numbers and skills higher and higher. Alone on a distant world, Max Grand instead must now prove himself, not to the system that now governs his entire world, but to his companions and best friends. Follow Max on his journey through space, through time, through space again, meeting people, going places, and doing things. All the nouns. Note About myself: I am only a hobbyest writer. I hope the internet doesn't expect novel level content from me. I have seen what others on the internet, and even more so this website, can produce and aspire to reach their level. I have no Idea what will come of this, but it should at least be a fun experience for all involve. The writing improves gradually as the chapters go on. I invariably learn some stuff after writing a bunch, finding what works and what doesn't. I definately need to work on paceing and dialouge and flow. Those are the three main goals for now. **Chapter lengths float around the 2300 to 2500 word range as of current chapter Thank you and happy reading.
