《Eternal Soul》Chapter-16

The officer looked at Grekorio, and said, "Young man, you have the will but not the means.", and the officer get back to his early position.
"But sir, at least give me a way to prove myself!", Grekorio argued.
The officer turn to look at grekorio again, saying slowly,"Okay, then i will give you two tests, one simple and the other hard.", said that the officer start to walk in a direction with Grekorio following him.
After walking around a few tents for a few minutes, they arrive where is the training ground with training dummy spread around the place, they walk in middle of the training ground and the officer stop besides a dummy, and speak to Grekorio.
"The simple one, is for you to destroy this dummy." , after saying that he take a few steps back and blankly stare at Grekorio.
Grekorio take the gladius from his inventory and unsheath it, holding the sheath in his left hand while wielding the sword with his right one, Grekorio take 3 steps forwards and casually swing his sword, following by a sharp sound from the wind the dummy soon start to fall apart from the middle.
After the dummy fall on the ground, the officer came forward and while looking at the dummy, say, "It's seems that won't be there a need for hard test, since it's only for you to gather treant core."
Hearing that Grekorio was dazed, by discovering that the treants have a core while he didn't took one on the way, he could probably be richer now.
"What is this treant core?", Grekorio couldn't help himself and asked.
"The treant core is just like the name says, the core of a treant, and it's help necromancy magic or something, and it's price is 1 gold." ,The officer said while motioning for Grekorio to follow him.

Grekorio started to follow him while nodding calmly while sheathing the gladius and putting it back inside the inventory, but inside he was screaming about the money that he could get.
Entering a tent, the officer stop on the side of a table with a map spread across it, and say to Grekorio,"Stay behind me, now you are my subordinate, my name is Alexandre, you can call me Captain Alexandre."
Grekorio start to analyzes Alexandre clothes, green clothes, with a insignia that has 3 stars and crossed swords on the shoulders, without a wrinkle on his clothes.
Soon enter more 3 persons, with insignias that has the crossed swords but have one more star and they are more flashy, and the one in the middle has a arrongant air while looking at the few persons in the room, even more when his gaze passed by Grekorio, but Grekorio didn't even noticed that, he was excited thinking,'Good!! A quest scenario.. but, Alexandre is the one with the lowest rank here, and the other are probably colonel, but the arrogant looking one is almost surely the gereral that will 9 times out of 10 give dumb orders.'
While Grekorio was lost in his monologue the NPCs are already discussing about a mission while pointing on the map, except Alexandre that is on the side quiet only looking at them.
"Okay, then we will have Alexandre company charge at the wood elves in middle of the mountain." , Suddenly the General-looking dark elf said out loud, suprising Grekorio who was looking at his character status and noticed something weird.
Grekorio was suprised that he was right, this general is stupid, even he know that is a stupid thing, and Grekorio don't know anything about tactics, this will probably kill everyone under Alexandre, at a better scenario a few will survive.

The dark elves know the mountains like their hands, so why they would throw themselves at wood elves without this advantage, while the middle of the mountain that the general is speaking is a good spot, it's not for charge, but for assasinations, since the wood elves don't know anything about the mountain, and they could use the undead for charge in place of a company of dark elves.
On Alexandre's face you could only see wrath, but a second later it transformed in apathy, after hearing what the General said, he saluted he start to walk out of the tent, and Grekorio did the same actions.
Outside Grekorio couldn't help but ask, "Captain, why that asshole gave such a dumb order?", Grekorio didn't resist the urge to be sincere.
"Because he has a inferiority complex, and think that all his subordinates are scheming to take his position, so he make this kind of dumb decision to free himself of worry."
Grekorio was suprised by how this quest was progressing, and was waiting for the quest window to appear,'This is becoming interesting, but what was that on my status?', then he opened his character window.

'This is useful, it mean that i can pretty much disguise myself as any race, and that is, i can disguise myself as a wood elf, enter their city find out about their side of the history, while killing their officers too.', Grekorio was humming happily while following to where Alexandre's company is.

Eleknar's Heir, The Infernal Prince (Demonic LitRPG)
A LitRPG and Epic Fantasy adventure: The son of a mafia boss finds himself abruptly plunged into an alternate world where he must find a way to survive the horrors of a realm called Oblivion, make pacts with demons, form unnatural friendships, and figure out what the hell is going on – all while dealing with the depressing reality of his past. An artificial intelligence has ascended into godhood and has thrown Trey’s home into Chaos, pulling millions of people into an enchanted new life... or, in Trey's case, a violent nightmare. As far as he can tell, he is locked into what the system prompts call a ‘Death Game.’ Here, artificial reality is manufactured for the enjoyment of a being called the All Spirit, and he has a very real chance of truly dying. Just how real is this place though? Is it merely a simulation, a realistic game of life and death… or is it something much more? Elves, dwarves, undead, and other races only thought to exist in fairy tales are now a reality. Black magics, pantheons of gods at odds with one another, predatory symbiotes, and an unholy calling, the significance of which he has yet to grasp, are all entangled with his fate. ============================================ ============================================ Some things to expect when reading this book series: - Brutal storyline where no character is safe and choices have real consequences. Heavy on action, survival, and adventure - An isekai. The main character struggles to find himself, repeatedly crossing the line between good and evil as other important characters influence his life - Harem (explicit), though this only starts about 180k words in. - Good amounts of crafting, town building, and guild building later on - Good amounts of fantasy-related LitRPG stats, rank ups, and evolutions. Heavy focus on demons and black magics - There will be many points of view, but there is only one primary/main character that takes up 90% of the POV - A long storyline. Currently (as of 7/26/2021) I have about 1500k words written, though much of it will have to be heavily edited and re-written. I also plan to go far beyond 1500k words if people like the story (A lot of it is also in the 'backstories' book that explores the guildmates, the link is below) - Chapters will have an average of about 4k-5k words, a little longer than most other books on RR, though there will be exceptions for more and less. I just didn't like posting chapters that didn't feel complete, and 2k words often felt like too little. - If you like super-heroic and goody-goody characters, this story is not for you. ***Updated once a week***

Short Stories: Character Ideas
Training writing by randomly creating characters stories without screwing up some full-fledged story that I may or may not write in the future. There is a main story here; however, as I'm still bad at writing, I decided to just put a small part of it here. Leaving the full story for another book. Also, please notice that every single chapter can and will be edited at any time I think I'm ready to enhance this book's quality.
