_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
In a forest covered by dark clouds.
"You guys are getting weaker."
A young boy was running with ghostly apparitions on his back.
"Fast!! or you will lose me."
The apparitions were not your average undeads, they were wraiths belonging to specter species of undeads.
Wraith were the spirits of the people who died with a lot of anger at something or someone. After reviving as wraiths, these undeads don't have a physical form, so physical attacks are totally useless on them.
As the wraith were chasing the young boy, he was smirking while jumping from tree to tree like a monkey.
"hihih!! come on you floating assbags!"
The boy was jumping all over the forest while going to the places where undeads and specters were present.
All this running has chasing had created a mob of 50 undeads which were all after the young boy. The scene of so many undeads can make a person shiver, the shrill cries of the specters were more horrifying. But the boy was still running and jumping.
Suddenly, the bly stopped in a open part of forest, but as for the undeads, they increased their speed to kill him.
Without wasting any time, the boy took out a small katana from his back, which started to burn with red splendor.
"At least you guys are slow!! Now get more slow..HAI!!"
The boy started to run towards the hordes of undeads, as strange symbols start shining on his body, it started from his back, then all over his body.
As the symbols spread over the boys body, his muscels started to bulged, speed multiplied from when he was running away from the undeads...
Then with the sword in his hand, the boy lurched toward the undeads.
Generally the scene would have been , the boy easily killing the undeads ...but.
*Thuck* *boom*
The boy was struck by the bear type undead, throwing his off on a tree breaking it.
'Me and my big mouth.'
The boy got up without any hitch, only to find himself surrounded by multiple undeads who were close to striking him.

He parried the blow of the closest undeads and dodging the curses thrown at him by the specters, he struck the bear type undead in his neck.
The blow didn't even made the bear flinch, it easily struck it's paw where the boy was.
The boy got stuck again.
But this time he parried the blow with the sheath of the katana, then using his whole force, he cut the ripped the katana through the body of bear , from neck to stomach.
"Die you fatty!!"
As he was rejoicing in his victory over on of the 50 undeads, one of the zombified undead threw acid from his mouth towards the young boy.
"Shit!!" Barely dodging this time... the boy got on his gaurd again and controlled his senses.
As he was breathing slowly, the area aworund him was starting to get cold.
"Now try to throw your stuff at me!!"
The temperature in the surrounding dropped so much, that ice was starting to grow on the dead trees and the land.
Even though the specters were not affected in the least, but the undead with solid body started to slow down. Even squeking sound was coming when they were moving.
The boy jumped in between the horde and started to slice things apart, he parried most of the strikes... but he was still hit by the curses at times.
As the battle raged on, fire was starting to be born on the boys back and the temperature in the surrounding was dropping too.
The more he cut, the wierder the smile on his face got. the sword in his hand acted like blackhole, drinking all the blood from it's foes.
The boy was not getting tired, instead the more he fought. more powerful he got.
"You and your pitiful curses!!"
The face color of the boy was pale, resulted by the constant curses he was inflicted with.
He hold his hand towards the sky... on which a strange symbol was pulsating.
"HOLY SMITE!!" From his hand a bright light came burning away half of the specters. and the ones that survived were in their corporeal form.
Even the blazing fire on the boys katana had started to burn with golden hue... having a holy power.
As most of the undeads were in daze becauseof the spell.

The boy didn't wasted any time, he jumped towards a group of undeads, while whirling his sword.
The undeads were already slowed down because of the cold... but as the holy fire struck them, their ones turned into dust, killing them in the instant.
As of now, more htan half of the undeads have been defeated by the boy... And the ones that were left were burning in holy fire.
As the boy killed the last undead. The strange symblos shining on the boys body dimmed and the mad look in his eyes disappeared.
The boy put the katana on his back while collecting spoils of war.
"Kyu!!?"
"Yeah!! yeah!! I can control it now... don't worry"
As the small little fox came to him, the boy took him in his shirt... and ran away from the cemetry he has created.
*************************************************************
It has been 1yr, from the day the queen raided the Muno Estate.
The city Memon was turned upside down in just one day. The people couldn't believe that their beloved ruler has sold away his kingdom(Official statement).
The affair was managed by a confidant of Duke Rosewald.... who took over the city in one month stabilizing it.
As for the Baron. No one knew what happened to him. The Empire's spy(Yeah!! I am going the Star wars route) was handed to the intelligence department to interrogate.
Today was a grand occasion in the Tharius Alliance.
In this day, the coronation ceremony of the new king will be held. Everyone was in high spirits because of the occasion. Every alliance member came to the royal palace with grand gifts.
Some even brought their young daughters of the family as the prince was said to be single and a king having more than 1 wife was not unheard of too.
The palace was decorated for the grand occasion.
In the throne hall, the a red carpet was spread toward the throne with soldiers in golden armour holding spears with imposing aura. And the church priest was standing beside the throne with a kind smile on his face and on the throne was the biggest attraction The Crown of the king.
There were people standing in the side of the hall waiting for the arrival of the new king. While looking towards the 2 beauties standing beside an old man.
While one of the woman gave off a gentle and motherly aura, the other one gave a kind of oppressive feeling.
In front of these 2 was standing the present king of Tharius alliance Henrich Ageras Lionel. He had a big smile on his face.
"It is sad that we lost Leo.... but we can't live in the past!! we need to move forward, remove that expression from your face.... atleast for today."
The King said to one of his wife.
"hmph!!" Ignoring the king the woman keep watching her small daughter who had lost her smile with her daughter in law.
She is not the only one who has changed after the disapperance of Leowald.
Lisa, Leowalds little blood sister has changed too. She like her brother takes intrest in the politics and economy in country, being a nine year old she didn't had a smile on her face, that's what worried her mother the most.
And as for Maisei!! She has become a good friend of Lisa... Giving Lisa the support she searches for.
Today is the last day Maisie will be known as a noble lady. She is going to start her own mercenary company and join adventurer guild.
The queen Angelica being a former adventurer pulled some strings, to find good recruits for Maisie's party.
As everyone was thinking about the change in life they were going to have from today.
"Lord Valcus Ageras Lionel, The Crown Prince of The Great THarius Alliance has arrived in the coronation."
A Loud shout sounded out from the gate of the throne hall.
A man slowly entered with people holding his clothes, he had black hair with specs around his eyes.
He was filled with heroic aura, there were a lot of women who were sighing seeing the stature of the man.
He was the crown prince and the new king of the Alliance.
****************************************************************************
"Geezer!! I am back"
"Leowald.... would you like to get out of this place?"
Leo's eyes went wide hearing this question of Daikran. He only went for his daily hunt but when he came back, the old man asked him this.
Breathing heavily Leo replied.
"Ye...YES!!"
THe old man only smirked.

Welcome to the Upward Bound System, V.2
Technically abandoned. I will be reposting an updated version of the story one chapter at a time. When the System came to Earth, it changed everything. It is a grand thing used by gods and men alike. What had once been fantasy was now a reality. People believed and so that belief gave ideas the strength to manifest. "Welcome Founder of the SCP Foundation" It stirred the gods from their deathly slumbers. Stirred by an almost mechanical voice promising them new life, and followers as countless as the stars. All it asked of them was for their help. Help with what though? The old gods, the forgotten gods, and the new gods drew breath, and then made their voices heard. On a day like any other Dante was home from college watching the Presidential inauguration with his parents. Little did they know that this day would turn out to be anything but ordinary. That this was the day everything changed. Dante is not your typical MC. While he has a troubled past, he looks forward to the future. Follow Dante, his parents, and the new friends he meets along the way as they traverse this new system world. However, before they can explore this new world they must complete, the Tutorial. (Please note: This tutorial will be part of the story. Rather than a skim of the information, you will get to experience it in depth. So the tutorial will last a good while.) A much slower style of LitRpg than what you would normally find. Follow Dante and his party as they find their world taken over by the system. Welcome people of Earth to the Upward Bound System!... With the system's arrival so too does great danger come... The tools of your survival shall be granted upon you by the system... Please note, I don't own the art. Please enjoy the story, and if you don't please leave a comment and I will try to improve the story for you. This is the second version of this story, so feel free to check out the original and compare the two.

World Master
Hey! I once lived on your world back in 2056. But that was a long time ago and there’s probably no records of my existence. Or, maybe, I haven’t even been born yet… …I’m still figuring out of the timelines correspond. Anyways, I was or will be, or whatever you want to call it (maybe I am?), John Pitcher, a resident at St. Jude’s Hospital for the Mentally Ill. I was a computer programmer and my parents had me admitted there because I was convinced that I had been contacted by Set, the Egyptian god of chaos, about creating a world. Well, apparently, I’m something akin to the great times a hundred grandson of over 10 000 gods, and they didn’t want me to live an ordinary, dull life (well, except for the god of normalcy, but he doesn’t count). Set gave me three years to prepare myself. This begins right at the end of those three years. [participant in the NaNoWriMo Royal Road challenge] I originally had this as part of the prologue, then I realized that it made a better synopsis. Please note: this might seem a bit clunky because I haven't done a lot of writing, and this is supposed to be a kind of prequel to another story that I plan on doing in the future. I will not be fully explaining everything but instead will be explaining things in that other story. This is mainly to help fill in the lore of the world so that people will have at least a basic idea of how things function. Regardless of that, that story won't be written for at least another year, so deal with it. Note: I am using ideas from several different authors in order to make sure that this can be a proper story. You may or may not recognize where I got them. I am not writing a Fanfiction and do not claim these as my own. I will add to a list of titles below as I find myself using those ideas. World Keeper (obviously) The Wandering Inn The Legend of Randidly Ghosthound (not yet, but eventually) A bunch of others that I haven't thought of yet
