《Undead Anima》Chapter 18- Outcome
Advertisement
【 Defre's POV 】
Are we done for?
After fighting with the Cerberus with all our strength, we took only two heads.
It's because we also need to deal with several demon dogs.
Now the Cerberus is looking at us with bloodlust.
"May the children be safe!"
I entrusted them to one of the group of the clan and my most trusted person, Loki.
He was an orphan, because of losing his parents while still young his eyes lost its light.
Our clan has given him the opportunity to gain power, since his parents where from the support group he can only tame the monsters this group had.
With the power of the elemental king he was given the wind spirit, Sylph.
He obtained the power 【Watcher】 this ability is indeed a support type that can see through everything.
We escape many tragedies and also battles because of his skill.
The wanderer clan cherish him because we owe his parents.
His parents died because of our carelessness, after going through the dungeon we face several strong monsters. We exhausted ourselves to the point we can't even stand. We encountered a strong monster, a B-rank variant monster, an Orc.
Orc alone was fine but a variant appeared having a unique skill, we are about to collapse.
But the two of them stand together while summoning their spirits.
A man holding a sword wrap in lighting, his lightning spirit 《 Flash wolf 》.
A woman holding a fan gathering wind, her wind spirit 《 Sylph 》.
With both their powers combined creating a massive barrier of wind and lightning.
But we all know, their mana is exhausted like us.
Just by using a skill is suicidal.
"Our child needs to live and we entrust it to you..."
We escape the dungeon safely.

As we look back, we will never forget the image of two people saving us in exchange of their lives.
As the child grow up, he gain his own elemental spirit similar to his mother.
We obtain a magic item from the dungeon.
【 Magic item: Wind keeper 】
A unique item.
We’ve given this item to that child for his spirit to materialize.
Then he grow up with his spirit.
"I'm glad to be a part of this clan!"
"Yeah! I wish we could travel some more...” (Zello)
"..ye"
As we close our eyes when the gathering of demon dogs gather in front of us.
A silhouette appeared behind us.
"Grand battle!" (???)
"Shadow stitch." (???)
"Leech roots." (???)
A man clad in orange lightning wielding a giant axe appeared slicing the demon dogs that have been clump together by a black rope.
Other demon dogs have fainted when roots entangle their bodies.
"Who are you people?" (Zello)
"Us?" (???)
"We are here to help, we are the undead clan!" (???)
Undead clan.
The clan that perish from the war between the light.
"Don't worry, we'll take it from here." (???)
In a matter of minute, the entire pack of demon dogs has been slaughtered.
"No more dogs in the area, I think Seleca-san and Vera-san stop the summoner." (???)
"Hmm...I don't feel any contract magic from these dogs...seems that these dogs are wild demon dogs that followed the person involved." (???)
"Really?" (???)
The three people standing in the center of a massacre started to talk to each other.
"Uhm...”
"Hmm? Oh, my apologies." (???)
"When you said the undead clan...you don't mean the fallen clan five years ago?"

"We are indeed the undead clan, but now...we are no more the fallen clan you've heard of. Instead we are now rising from the shadows." (???)
"I see..."
"The children ask for help, our leader gave permission to help." (???)
"Leader? But I thought all the royalty of your clan are all dead."
"Not unless a child?" (Zello)
"It will be better if you met her later." (???)
A familiar person appeared on a forest covered in wounds.
"Xerxe!!!" (Zello)
"My...sky...is gone...*sob" (Xerxe)
Xerxe, Xerxe's crying.
"A very disturbing person is behind all this and to think that it was one of the seven deadly sins. Two appeared but we only fought one, it's good that it was still an amateur if it was an experienced sin then we are not winning without some of our body lost or even worst death." (???)
"Still you've said about winning! Haha" (???)
"So, the tamed monster of this person was absorb by Gluttony." (???)
"Let's think about that later, we need to tend the wounded. Let's hurry to our base." (???)
We carried the wounded and unconscious, thankfully no one died, but Xerxe's sky conqueror have been absorb by one of the seven deadly sins.
The seven deadly sins are the right hand of the demon king.
Their power is very dangerous, lust and gluttony.
Lust, to control the mind of the opposite sex while the same sex, she can give them nightmares or can destroy their mind.
Gluttony, the power to absorb anything, he can absorb any sort of magic or even living things and objects.
To even think we've survived from encountering those sins is a miracle.
"Defre-san!!!" (Loki)
"Loki!"
A small child welcome us with Flet-san.
"Thank goodness you’re safe! But your clothes?"
"Don't worry, a demon dog attack me but a kind person healed me." (Loki)
We can see the other children inside Loki's spirit.
"Uncle Zello!!" (Children)
"Xerxe-onee!" (Children)
The children greeted us.
"So how was it?" (???)
"Well complicated things, well talk once we get back." (???)
A petite girl wielding a great sword appeared.
"Everyone, let's go!" (???)
A man with a mysterious aura surrounding him started to guide us.
When you look at the surroundings...it’s full of skeleton monsters.
"Where are we going?"
"To our base, or should I say to our Hime's home." (???)

Almave
Welcome to AlmaVé. First thing you have to know is that it's a tragedy. Nope, not talking about my book yet. It's a tragedy that you're reading this instead of clicking on chapter 1. I did fail speech introductions after all. My story? Right that's what you're here for. My bad, try this: Lilia Hammond is reborn (cliché, but we all know we enjoy it when it's done for a purpose) as Syndra Sanmey. She was a graphic designer who hadn't caught her break yet. She was paralyzed for months before she was offered the opportunity to join a program that would allow her to-NOPE! not virtual reality. The doctors killed her and dumped her body. Tough. In her new world, Lilia has to fight herself to find out who she truly is. With the possibility to cast magic and a second chance at life, Lilia thinks she can really make something for herself. Her goal? Become the greatest artist the world had ever seen. The rub? World is a bit darker than anything she saw on earth. Thankfully, Lilia is getting quite familiar with the darkness inside her and her magic might just be the thing to save the-hey! wait it's not that kind of book. No saving the world. No hero syndrome. Just magic and blood and a bit of crafting. Yup. Fighting. Romance? Eh? What's that? The first arc is Lilia's shift from Earth to creating backstories for the three major characters. It's not funny and light. It's often dark and funny. Ah, I really should have gone through a punk-rock phase. Or goth. Would I look good with black hair? Hmm.. There are three MCs and they are Jackson, Daryl, and Lilia/Syndra. Daryl is currently kidnapped and Jackson just awakened his magic. I don't want to spoil (much) but soon things will be very fun to write. Hope to see you there! Leave a comment even if you're just stopping by so I can say hey! Chapters to be published twice weekly. Check tags before reading.

The Saga of Armageddon: The Call of Crows
Bjorn Stormtamer's world has been turned upside down in more ways than one. His shipmates have left him for dead on an island for quarantining victims of a disease that he now has. His partner in battle despises him, his family thinks he's dead and everyone else thinks it was good riddance. Moreover, the world is under attack by a virulent plague that kills with light and an empire from the east whose intentions are unknown but whose methods are merciless and bloodthirsty. Little does he know that the world itself is nearly on the brink of cosmic collapse.But when a bold, charismatic woman from another nation seeks him out, Bjorn discovers that the plague he has was not a plague at all, but a trial. A trial to determine who is worthy to wield the power of gods in order to give humanity a fighting chance against the winds of fate. This novel was written 2 years ago and isn't exactly my best work. I'm still improving my skills, but I encourage you to enjoy it for what it's worth. ALSO, the whole plague thing was written about before the COVID pandemic. The plague is fake and actually magic in the story, but that has NOTHING to do with real world events. I am under NO CIRCUMSTANCE trying to make ANY kind of statement with it. Please just enjoy the story and stay safe.

Four story anthology
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] [participant in #NaNoWriMo] Preface: This fiction will contain four different stories set up as a challenge for myself and to get better at writing. The challenge for royal road writathon is a 55.555 word goal while the nanowrimo challenge is 50.000 words. Reader suggestions is turned on, feel free to point out errors I missed and I'll fix them up! Chasing sun, napping softly: Cultivation/Xianxia genre. Some parts will poke at the ridiculousness of the Xianxia gerne. We follow the life of a magical fox monster, who doesn't like how the cultivation world works. Said beast seems to have more knowledge than is usual for normal magical beasts. In it's infinite wisdom it decided to search for the main character of the cultivation world to have a cozy and safe place beside him. Our fox will act as a "wise beast" to coast along on the main characters rise to greatness, all for peace, happiness and that amazing napping spot in the sun. The challenges for myself with this story: Writing in first person. Comedic effect between talking vaguely and sounding wise. The cost of heroism: A story more centered around fights and mental health of hired mercenaries/heroes. The world is infected with an eldritch corruption. Humans are trying their best to explore and clear out wilderness and the dungeons hiding in them to establish new cities. Lords seek for hired hands to do the professional work. Thanks to the setting, the story will show how awful pasts are the norm and how pragmatic people became thanks to that. People exchange their sanity for riches, fame and gods acceptance. Interpersonal relationships change drastically and quickly. The challenges for myself with this story: Writing grim scenes/imparting a feeling of how grim the world is. Writing fight scenes. Showing different mental states. Describing their influence on people during fights, walks or even after successful or failed campaigns. Who will be the next powerhouse? : A story about a gaming show, it's host Staan and the different participants. Stereotype characters, stereotype backstories, silly challenges and quizzes. The winner of those challenges gets powerups for their power system. Be it magic, ki, psychic power or anything else imaginable and unimaginable to reach the power of gods. The challenges for myself with this story: A softer tone for storytelling. Making the reader smile and enjoy themselves. A different try at slice of life story. I was left behind on earth as my family conquered another world and enjoys riches, but that's okey because I got a cheat too! : Stereotypical Isekai story parody twisted into an Urban Fantasy story. The challenges for myself with this story: Writing over the top and overdramatic scenarios/scenes Writing in first person. Walking into stereotypical scenarios and making them more dramatic/giving them a twist. Different type of humor.
