《Stuck in a zombie world with an OP shop》Chapter 13
Advertisement
In the morning, Ryan climbs down to the bottom of the manhole to take care of his business. Unbuttoning his pants and pulling everything down is easy enough, and a roll of toilet paper only costs 10 credits. However, when Ryan hears a person shouting when he'd mid-way through a push, things become difficult.
'Oh shit,' Ryan thinks and hastily finishes his business. The sewer is bound to be filled with shards of glass and dirty toilet paper at the rate Ryan has been dropping them, but he doesn't regard it as important. Whatever monster killed his friend on the first day, Ryan sees no reason to impose on its territory.
"Is anyone down there?" A voice says from the top of the manhole, and Ryan looks up like a deer in headlights. The unknown man and Ryan's eyes meet.
"Just a moment and I'll be up," Ryan says, half way though pulling squares from the roll of toilet paper.
"Excuse me..." The man at the top says and backs away.
Ryan finishes his business and climbs to the top of the ladder, leaving his spear in the plastic bag at the bottom. Once at the top, Ryan sees the feet of several people walking around the van and his car. Deciding against pulling the gun and killing the people, Ryan crawls out from under the van.
The four people who were circling the van now stand and look at Ryan. Of the four, two of them have pistols and two of them have baseball bats with nails stuck through them. All of them are wearing hearing protection, but they have the earmuffs around their necks.
"We come from a large settlement just a few blocks away. If you're willing, we'd be glad to have you as a member," The closest man with a baseball bat says to Ryan.

"What do you mean 'settlement'?" Ryan asks. Though he asks, he is almost entirely sure he doesn't want to join their settlement. The only thing which could change his mind is if his parents were with them.
"We have secured a highrise on 4th street. All zombies on the inside have been cleared, and we have food stored to last of for several weeks," The man replies.
"I'm sorry, but I'm actually waiting for my parents. Eric and Cathy Stone, have you heard anything about them?" Ryan asks.
"No, have any of you?" The man asks his teammates.
"No," Is the resounding response.
"It doesn't sound it like," The man says to Ryan.
"Then, I'll have to stay here," Ryan says and goes back under the van. If a fight were to break out, he'd want to be inside the manhole where he could shoot the four men without fear of them having too high of a chance of hitting him.
"That's unfortunate but fair," The man says and crouches so he can still talk to Ryan. "We'll be sending men every few days to keep the streets clean. If you want to join us, just ask one of them,"
The four men walk away from Ryan, further in the direction of the car dealership. Ryan sighs and descends to the bottom of the manhole, resuming his collecting of credits.

Tales of the Legendary Scholar
They meet in the most unlikely moment and turned their life around. Freidrech newly arrived in his own nation's capital city, which is so foreign to him compared to his village's idyllic and nondiscriminatory atmosphere, after he is forced to come. Now, he is facing a royal prince and tells him to bow. This draws out one of his late father's teachings from the deepest recesses in his mind. "The blood of your great ancestors runs in your veins. Don't easily bow down to anyone, or accept suppression by any being, not even from a monarch, unless you pledge your allegiance to him. Also, giving in to oppression is directly telling the oppressor that you're easy prey and open for manipulation." He is uncertain on how to face this oppression right now. Will he bows or not? What will he do to uphold his father's words while keeping his life safe? As for the prince, Theodrech has nothing to do with Freidrech, so he wishes to let this slip, but the boy opens his mouth and proposes the most ludicrous challenge he ever heard and triggers his curiosity. "I, Freidrech Goederf Gerboud, son of the late Village Chief Louvel Gerboud of Wrilon, will challenge you, Your Highness, to a battle of riddles… If you win, I will not only bow but be your servant for the rest of my life." This amuses the prince. It is the first he met a boy of the same age who is not intimidated by the air of authority he projects. Rather, this boy challenges him. "Why are you so headstrong? In fact, bowing to me is an honor. You saw the King's noble Knights. When they saw me, they bowed," says Theodrech, testing Freidrech. "Allow me to be forward, Your Highness. For me, bowing to a monarch does not guarantee loyalty. If I were you, I rather have men who stand straight in my presence but who got my back, than bowing men who are dreaming of my death," replies Freidrech. The prince’s curiosity increases. A huge smile is seen on his face. Prince Theodrech decides to take Freidrech under his wing. Little did they know, this boy who Prince Theodrech takes in as his confidant and friend in the most ridiculous fashion is someone indispensable in his life and the one who can help him succeed the throne when he almost believes he has lost. Thus, the Tales of the Legendary Scholar begins. ------ o ------ Old Synopsis: A famous ancient adage stated, behind a successful man is a woman BUT… In these lands, the monarchs are seeking not a woman to stand behind them but the man hailed as the Legendary Scholar.

Also, with the assistance of two ousted beings: a former aka 'great wizard', and a burly fairy. Follow Freidrech’s adventures, on how he wins the heart of the future king of Xaeviel, befriends outlaws, prevents the people from being slaughtered from an unknown plague, rerouting the enemies’ attacks when reinforcements are denied, secures Prince Theodrech’s claim to the throne in the midst of utter despair, and many more.

Having a Common Game Ability In Normal Life
As long as i can remember, i can see something other people can't see Yes, on the top right of my vision, i have something that looks like a map, does it useful? how does something that blocks 1/32 of my vision to be useful? Does it have to be useful.. right? As i get older, this looks like "mini-map" in a video game that i played, so i decided to call this Mini-map at least I'm not the only one with this kind of thing.. from what I've found, everyone has different ability, for example my little sister can see another person status, there's a person that can heal wounds by eating meat, there's a person that once a day can spin roulette to get reward, there's a person that can jump twice in the air and there's a person that can throw fireballs..... wait a minute!? the story will be slow, since i just write this to train my english anyhow the idea of this story will be if someone can throw a fireball does their hand burns? if someone can jump for 30m can they survive the fall? if a bard play a song that can regen their allies, why’s the enemy isn’t regenerating? if a cleris creates a barrier can their allies attack from inside barrier? and About the first few chapter i know the grammar was really bad but it’ll help me if you guys read the first few chapter and go straight to the last and tell me have i improve or not P.S i hope The world has “common language” feature so everyone speak in the same tongue lol
