《Player Glitch *paused*》Chapter 7 - To the store!
Advertisement
Ludius awoke from his slumber on the old wooden bed that Ed and Sandra owned in the spare room of their house.
---
Their house was home to the only apothecary in the area, and to keep up with demand the father and daughter duo often travel led to the forest to collect herbs.
---
His back aching Ludius attached his sword to his belt and went downstairs.
"Oh, Ludius you're down already! You only just went upstairs.", said a confused Ed washing up the cutlery and plates from their dinner.
"Er y-yeah. I just wasn't tired yet you know. I was going to head out for a bit."
"Okay, but come back before morning. We'll treat you some breakfast... By the way what happened to my daughter in that forest. She's telling me not to worry but I need to know!"
"Alright. Some bear covered in scars was closing in on her so I killed it."
Suddenly Ed dropped the plate and rag he was holding in his hands. His mouth was agape and his eyes were no better.
"S-Scarface is dead?.... Hallelujah!!!", Ed jumped up in the air and started laughing.
"Ha, ha, hooo. So~ how did you kill him. I expect it was quite the fight. Many bands of adventurers had gone after him before but none had managed to kill him till now. So how did you do it?!",
"I sort of just cut its arms off and then lopped the head off afterwards.", Ludius said bluntly.
"You weren't injured?"
"No"
"...
... Come back in the morning I'll take you to the adventurers guild. They could do with someone like you, I assume your not a member yet?"
"No."
"Good! See you in the morning then."

Ludius stepped out onto the night time streets of the village. He wanted to just find a quiet place to think and maybe buy some new things from the points store.
It was quite dark and only the pale moon lit up the dirt streets. There were a few people dressed in armor and carrying weapons walking around or going into a nearby tavern. To which Ludius walked directly away from. Ludius wasn't fond of large groups of people since years and years ago, he didn't like how they mocked him and compared their lives to his.
Anyway, Ludius went over to the center of town where in a large square was an old birch tree with benches all around. Ludius, instead of sitting on one of the benches, swiftly climbed the old birch tree and sat high in it's branches away from the ground.
Comfortable, Ludius began to ponder.
"I must have bought too many points to start off with, I'll need to look for something to test my strength on later...
I wonder if I can buy skills on the points store? Titles? Wait a minute... Money?
Points store!",

Post War Rules
Life on Torus Terminal is usually fast paced, but simple. A frontier Terminal has little room for easy living, but the great, circular station does boast shopping and culinary experiences from many Imperial races and cultures. Any star is, by its nature, extremely far from its neighbors. But laser highways, and the great shimmering sails of the light-rider spaceships make the trip into only about ten years. Still, the denizens of Torus Terminal eagerly await the day when the Anti-Euclidean Engine their station is built around finally comes online. Once that is done, they will have unfettered access to the entire Empire. Instantaneous travel and trade across hundreds of stars. Torus Terminal does boast one other oddity: a creature which calls itself Human. As he says, the last of his kind for now. He has made quite the life for himself on Torus Terminal, especially in the darker corners of the station. The elites of Torus Terminal praise his name, for once he took up arms, crime began to fall. What they did not realize was that was because he had claimed the seedy underbelly of Torus Terminal for himself and his own goals. The elites praise him as a paragon of law. The criminals fear him as a ruthlessly clever crime boss. Those closest to him, know him as the General. This story was originally posted on the Humanity Fuck Yeah subreddit, where it evolved from a simple play on a historical figure in a science fiction setting into a full blown space opera. I kind of took it as an opportunity to explore a setting I've had rolling around in my head for years. I also decided that it would be nice to have it in a place where I could more easily come back and edit it later, so I'm reposting it here. Here's a link to the original posting if you're interested: https://www.reddit.com/r/HFY/comments/e9cwpl/post_war_rules/ If my genre and tagging is subpar, let me know. I'm still new to Royal Road and I'm open to help. Feel free to comment and make suggestions, or discuss. I love comments, and so long as we keep things civil I also love criticism.
