《[French] Les Pions de l'Equilibres》Épilogue
Advertisement
Pendant des années, il avait renié sa vraie nature. L'Équilibre était clair à ce sujet. Un homme se devait d'aimer sa femme, et une femme se devait d'aimer son mari. Tout autre type de relation était contre nature, et aimer une personne du même sexe était aussi pervers qu'aimer un animal. Mais à cent vingt ans, on avait un autre regard sur la vie que celui imposé par des textes religieux, et plus important encore, on apprenait à s'accepter.
Il caressa le bras de l'homme à ses côtés en s'apprêtant à le réveiller en douceur, mais n'en eut, au final, pas besoin : une alarme assourdissante se fit entendre, ayant pour effet immédiat de réveiller Kesef en sursaut.
̶ Que se passe-t-il ? demanda celui-ci avec une pointe d'inquiétude dans la voix.
̶ Je ne sais pas. Quand l'alarme du village retentit, ce n'est jamais bon signe. Je dois rejoindre mon poste, et je te conseille d'en faire autant, dit Nééman d'un ton sérieux.
̶ Fais attention à toi, lui dit Kesef en se mordant la lèvre.
̶ Depuis quand ma sécurité t'est-elle importante ? demanda le chasseur, avant de disparaître avec un sourire aux lèvres.
L'une des choses auxquelles Nééman prenait particulièrement plaisir, depuis qu'il était devenu Miktsoane, c'était de pouvoir voler. Et c'est exactement ce qu'il fit. En une fraction de seconde, il surplombait le village de plusieurs dizaines de mètres.
Cependant, la scène se déroulant sous ses yeux fit immédiatement disparaître le sourire ayant persisté sur ses lèvres après qu'il eut quitté Kesef, laissant place à un frisson lui parcourant tout le corps. D'innombrables torches entouraient la totalité du village, illuminant celui-ci aussi bien que l'aurait fait un soleil au zénith.
Le simple fait que les torches soient assez nombreuses pour totalement encercler le village, bien qu'il soit devenu six fois plus grand, démontrait qu'elles pouvaient se compter par millions.

Bien sûr, ce qui l'inquiétait vraiment n'était pas les torches, mais les mains les tenant. De toute évidence, les bandits étaient revenus, et devant des ennemis si nombreux, il était clair que le village n'avait aucune chance.
À quoi rime un tel acharnement contre un village aussi mineur que le nôtre ?! ne put s'empêcher de se demander Nééman, en ressentant une chose qu'il croyait pourtant qu'elle l'avait quitté... de la peur. De la peur pour ses proches, et pour le village qu'il avait juré de protéger.
Yashar et les onze autres Miktsoanes ne tardèrent pas à faire également leur apparition, affichant tous la même expression de désespoir que Nééman.
̶ Peut-être que c'est du bluff, et qu'ils ne possèdent pas autant de Miktsoanes que nous, espéra à haute voix le Miktsoane de Mordim.
Mais comme s'ils l'avaient entendu, une vingtaine de sonars spirituels, équivalant chacun à la signature d'un Miktsoane, parvinrent à eux.
̶ Ordonnez l'évacuation du village ! dit Yashar, avant de sortir une carte noire s'illuminant d'un feu vert un court instant, avant d'être réduite en cendres.

La balance d'argent trembla légèrement, mais le Frère et la Sœur n'y prêtèrent pas attention. Sur les cases de l'échiquier résidant au-dessus, une nouvelle case enneigée était illuminée de mille feux.
Bien sûr, celle-ci n'était qu'une case parmi des milliers de cases traversées de scènes similaires. Cependant, alors que la Sœur était concentrée sur la civilisation Geth, localisée dans des cases bien plus éloignées représentant une autre planète, le Frère portait sur celle-ci un regard particulièrement scrutateur.
C'est dans le danger qu'un Cultivateur peut débloquer tout son potentiel. Va-t-il parvenir à atteindre le quatrième Pas ? se demanda le Frère, avec une pointe d'attente dans les yeux.

Bonespore
Harux Y'saanith is not your average elf. He is wild, untamed, and likes a good old cut of meat over a plate of vegetables. But what he does have in common is his love of fighting and magic. So when he gets the perfect opportunity to join an academy full of strong fighters, he couldn't resist. Journeying with an eccentric tech billionaire, a boy who's way too theatrical for his own good, a proud knightess and many others, Harux wonders if he'd finally found strong opponents, or even people he can call his friends. Bonespore is a shonen-inspired story set in an academy where students train and fight. There is also a blend of magic and SciFi as it is set in a post-modern world of sorts. If you like something that is a blend of both magical slice of life, and tense moments with battle, horror and other events, then it'll be to your liking. (This will be crossposted onto Scribblehub)

The Bronze Players of Recreation
The world of Creation has seen a recent explosion of what can only be called an adventurer’s culture over the past few decades. People who were once looked at as nothing more than lower class mercenaries rose to the ranks of heroes and legends as adventuring became recognized as an idealized lifestyle of overcoming hardship and finding triumph. With the establishment of a guild-based government system on the continent of Terramania, adventurers were soon legitimized and adventuring became a phenomenon universally accepted around the world. Redlette had retreated from this world to live on Earth for the remainder of her years, having been born and outcast by the gods of Creation. However, upon meeting a friend that she treasured dearly, she found herself longing for a return to her world—she wanted to experience it properly and go on adventures with someone whom she holds dear. Putting a plan into action, she meets with her friend, an awkward, nerdy boy by the username of Herring who she’d only known through years of playing online games with him, and invites him to go on this fantastic adventure with her. An adventure in another world had always been an impossible dream for Herring, but when he suddenly found himself with the opportunity to embark on one, he knew it wouldn’t be as simple as books and shows made it out to be. Redlette was notorious for rushing into things without thinking them through, and he was flighty and weak. In the games they played together, they rarely grasped victory. They were losers through and through, both in hobby and life. Despite this, though, he takes the leap and sets off with Redlette into the world of Creation. Together they only had one goal: to have fun and go on the adventure of their lives. This time, they’d establish a guild of their own and be free to take on whatever exploits their hearts desired. This is the story of the founding of their guild. Author’s Notes: -My writing style is largely based off of the absurd amount of light novels I’ve read and anime I’ve watched, so it may come off as cartoonish or exaggerative at times. If that isn’t your thing, I’d steer clear of this story.-Not an MMO story.-No numerical stats.-Relatively slow pacing.-Posts are between 2000-5000 words weekly after Chapter 1.
