《The Gods' Decree》Chapter 8 : Lou's heavenly bestowed blessings
Advertisement
"This one surnamed Lou is disappointed in his own short-sightedness". He looked around and scanned his audience as he spoke with pity on his face.
"I'll pay double the price, as I've been suffering from chronic back pains for a while now. The doctors can't seem to find a solution to my pain so I suffer continuously."
" However, I'm quite sceptical as to the short term use outweighing the long-term benefits."
How do we know the effects will last over a period of time and not without us continuously buying the product for its effectiveness?". An old man sceptically questioned as he examined the product.
"Fear not as this one puts his name on the line and certifies that this is a genuine article and its long term effectiveness is as such."
"As you know my store has been in business for decades and our reputation says it all ". Lou replied.
Soon the counters were flooded with persons making their orders and doubling the price as Lou looked on with a smile growing on his face.
"Haha, the heavens do indeed have eyes. This old boy finally had some blessing in this forsaken life of his. How many times have I prayed for some divine intervention and only received retribution instead?".
"who would have known that underwater cave would have such a glorious pond?. If I hadn't been chased by those bandits on my trip outside the city, I would never have discovered it. I must keep this a secret" he thought.
"I also have to keep supplies low in case I bring disaster on myself. If news of this were to ever get out, my days of heaven would be turned into the worse part of the extremity of hell"
Cold sweat dripped from his back as he thought.

"Imagine, I have diluted this by half with the addition of water and some none active herbs and it still has such outstanding effects. I wonder what other wondrous effects this might have?"
He pondered as he eyed the eager crowd.
"There were also other parts of that cave that I didn't enter at the time due to the shock of my discovery".
"Hmmm..., there must be some secrets to that cave, I should investigate thoroughly " He discussed with himself.
As all the commotion went on, Taf watched on with curiosity.
"Wow Mr Lou sure is having some good business recently", but after a while, he lost interest and kept on walking through the crowd.
As he walked he arrived at the Muscle and Strength Gains Gym.
"Do you want strength that knows no bounds and defy the logic of one's mortal body? Strength and muscles that makes all men envy due to their own inferiority".
"Strength that makes you the lantern and stern shield from the coldest nights in the eyes of the beauties of the world."
" Look..look.., as Luke lifts these weights over his head with such ease and calm". An overly muscular man bellowed to a large crowd of men and women.
"Feel scranny and inferior do You?"
"Ladies wishing your man had such strength, muscles, and stamina".
"Do you dare take the steps towards being a Lord among men?

It Started with Slime
Before we jump in, let me say that the MC starts stupid, so the language and writing style is straightforward to reflect this. The writing improves with the MC and as the chapters progress (I hope). It is also a gradual growth story, so no zero to hero in ten seconds... with that out of the way: An alchemical experiment has gone wrong and results in a Slime Monster. It doesn't have a name at first and is something that it will need to work out! This story follows a Slime that starts as a Micro Slime with some level of consciousness, and there is more to it than meets the eye. Survival is the name of the game. To improve, it works hard to grow, evolve and become more powerful to survive its harsh new reality. There is a lot more going, and only time will tell if this Slime (all its various versions) can become strong enough to make it through the strife to the other side. It's a harsh world, after all. It Started with Slime is a story with a Monster Protagonist Evolution story. There will be no profanity and no sexual content, and there will be some violence and fighting descriptions. I am a native English speaker, and so the English here should be to a good standard. That said, even though editing, there may be some corrections and typos, so if you see some, let me know! If it bothers you a lot, I am working to make sure all chapters have no typos, but of course, some might slip through. I will endeavour to correct any picked up, though! Also, I started this a few months ago and so any feedback is always appreciated, also reviews and ratings! If you like or don't like the story, let me know in the detailed reviews! That always helps me see what is good and what needs improving. Working on releasing chapters twice a week, I will try to increase that as time goes, but at the moment, that is what I can release. Patreon has more. If the story gets more popular, then I will increase the releases. I am aiming ultimately for a chapter a day if I can get to that. Chapters are roughly 1500 words, with Interludes every five chapters being more or less than that! Enjoy! Edit: Book 1 finished on Patreon, and the format for Book 2 is slightly different with Interludes every three chapters, and the release schedule will be three chapters a week.
