Advertisement
A few days after Vel killed Bishop Selon most of the noble stop fighting for the throne when the Servants of Light announced that they are taking the seat and merging with the surrounding kingdoms creating the Light empire.
“From the information, I received the day of the inauguration for the pope is also the day he supposed to ascend into godhood,” Vel said looking at the palace that being rebuilt for the new emperor.
“How are you going to kill him and what your plan for afterward” Zelly said standing next to him since she learned to accept him and promise not to run away.
“I have a few tricks planned and for afterward I don’t know yet maybe travel the world” Vel said as he didn’t want to be in this kingdom anymore.
“…” Zelly suddenly felt little sad when he said this but couldn’t find the caused and didn’t know why she didn’t hate him for killing her parents.
After their conservation Vel started his preparation so he spent most of his time in the forging room while Zelly went out to collect information.
“The day is three days and it seems all high-ranking member are gathering” Zelly reported from her network as Vel was resting from forging.
“Good and now onto the hardest part” Vel said with a strange smile.
“Can you at least tell me what all these are for” Zelly said picking up a part.
“It’s a secret” Vel said leaving.
“Why is acting all mysterious” Zelly said before heading to her room.
The Day has arrived and the ceremony has begun with the pope standing in front of a large crowd staring at him.
“Let give a warm welcome to our new leader and emperor Bryan Xian” the crowd clap as they looked at the middle-age man who appears.

“I know some of you are not happy since this came so fast and the last king died not long ago and with the culprit still not caught…But as your new leader I hope we can rise as a new empire and-“ The pope paused as he saw a man riding a dragon appear in the distance.
“ROAR”
“Who are you” the pope said as he was confident as a fighter but he knew his skills were not up to par with a dragon.
“I am Vel Devil your executioner” Vel shouted causing the citizen to be confused why he suddenly said he killing the emperor.
“And what have I done for you to kill me” the Pope said
“For ordering your men to kill half million citizens because they didn’t want to follow your religion” shouted from atop the dragon.
This one sentence caused a storm to rise in the crowd as this just seem unreasonable.
When the pope looked at the citizen all he saw were angry faces staring back at him.
‘Is this the person that the oracle warn me about’ the pope suddenly thought as eight years ago before they started spreading their religion they visited an oracle and received a warning.
‘Beware of the teen who comes with black hair and red eyes’ she said.
“If you’re so strong why don’t you come down here and fight instead of standing up there” the pope said hoping that Vel come down and his guards could kill him and he announces that he a crazy assassin.
“I am right there” Vel said and bent down and whispered something into the dragon ear.
When the dragon heard what he said he couldn’t help but smile as it been years since he left his mountain.
“Here I come” Vel shout when the dragon opens its mouth and rained fire down on the pope.

“As if I go down into your trap” Vel said being anti-climatic with his fight.
When the citizen saw what happen they were shocked at first but then raised a complaint since they didn’t get to see a good fight. But the sky suddenly began to darken and lighten suddenly struck the burnt corpse bring the man back to life and has a glow to him.
“I have reached godhood” he began to laugh like a madman as he looked toward Vel like he was an ant.
“Dragon God I think this just got interesting” Vel said as he felt a little tick on the look he received.
“It all up to as I’m going back to my mountain” the dragon said as he turned around and left.
As Vel landed he stood in front of the pope who seems to grow double in size and not just in height.
“Why are you still trying to kill me a god” the pope said raising his hand forming a giant hand in the sky.
“Because it not every day you can kill a fake god and revenge” Vel said.
“Do you think you can stop me with your tiny power” the pope said smashing the giant hand down into the crowd killing hundreds of thousands of people in an instant.
“It a sad thing that you didn’t train to reach that level so you can’t bring out even 10% of its power” Vel shakes his head sideways.
“SHUT UP AND DIE” the Pope shouted as he began his attack on Vel which was easily blocked or counter.
“Why are you so impatient to die” Vel said activation his hidden blade causing wounds to show up on the pope body.
“UGH” the pope said enraging himself more since he can’t land a single hit on his opponent. When he realized he couldn’t win he began to gather his power and was planning to self-destruct taking everyone with him.
“Let end It here before you make a bigger mess than you already have” Vel said stabbing the pope heart and brain causing the pope to fall dead.
When Vel turned around he saw the crowd in a messy state as some were crying to other appalling him for saving them.
“Well I think it time to leave” Vel said as he fades out of view.

Believing this to be the start of a new age, they eagerly poured across the solar system and further beyond, greeting what space had to offer with hope and optimism. It was misplaced, however, for humanity's traditional quarrels soon resurfaced and engulfed a now interplanetary empire of many races.As the Earth Empire burned and an intense depression overtook the once optimistic people, some held out hope.

Some 200 years have passed since then, and those hopeful ones have finally found a place to settle on. Firmly planting their flag in paradise, they called this untouched land "Eden" and declared the beginning of a true new age, the age of After Eden.Trouble, however, seemed to still be hounding them, as barely three years after its founding, Eden finds itself at war with a seemingly uncommunicative and uncompromising enemy that far outclasses the odd pirates they were used to facing. A new era of peace, marked by an immediate conflict. Time will tell if Eden, the Grand Experiment, truly is as great as it's supposed to be. ---------------------------------------- This is a sci-fi, character driven, military space drama. Multiple POV protagonists and lots of unnecessary detail. Somewhat psychological. My first work on this website.

The Shattered Universe Saga - Deus Vult Alpha from Omega
This is book one. Rick West, a wounded Marine with a very unique past is transported, with a significant portion of Earth's population, to a new universe. One that is shattered and yet to coalesce under a divine law. This is the story of a military man who begins the saga immature, rough, careless of other’s feelings. A young man whose focus is on getting laid, fighting, and winning at every turn, regardless of cost. He gets caught up in a strange occurrence, along with a billion others, and finds himself in an oddly familiar place where life is lived as a timed-event role-playing game. He discovers that within the shattered universe he is a Mystic Player, a Marshal, a figure of power, potential, and probability. If he wins, he may even able to wrestle unto himself the very throne of heaven. Rick starts to build his Pantheon with his most trusted companions, friends, family, and a harem of strong and talented women. He faces challenges within himself and others, and also must lead his faction into battle with men and monsters. As Rick and his companions progress through the adventure games within the pocket universe, he develops a greater understanding of his humanity and the qualities of what makes each of us uniquely valuable. He grows mentally, emotionally, and spiritually, without really noticing how he is leaving his old existence behind. Striving against him for truly ultimate power are a thousand others with the same potential, the same possibilities. All are aligned on the spectrum from the brightest of minds, the lightest of hearts, to the darkest of souls. All Mystic Players, be they Monster or Marshal, share one characteristic. They thrive in chaos. And a shattered universe is a universe in chaos. At the end of the Saga, will the winner be someone worthy of emulation and even, if it were appropriate, of worship as an exemplar of divinity. Will the title granted to the Final Victor be EXEMPLAR, or will the title be DESPOILER? That is the question.

Dungeon Crawler Katia
The aliens killed everyone on Earth...almost. Every structure, from the Taj Mahal to the lowliest lobster trap, vanished into the earth, killing everyone inside. The survivors were given a choice: Endure on the surface without food or shelter or tools, or descend into a world-spanning nightmare dungeon that is also a reality TV show. Katia, an art professor from Iceland who has given up her humanity to transform into a shapeshifting doppelganger, meets up with Carl and his cat, Donut. Together, the three fight to survive in a dungeon filled with Clarketech goblin murderdozers and pyramid-scheme fairy moonshine-makers. The above is, of course, describing Dungeon Crawler Carl. With DoctorHepa's (the author) permission I'm posting some fanfic to expand on Katia, one of the secondary characters who started off not getting as much exploration as I would have preferred. I started off writing chapters that matched up to canon except from her POV instead of Carl's; that lasted a couple of chapters before going off the rails and spinning off into a completely new story, which suggests I should really go back and renumber all the chapters as soon as I find some tuits.
