《Harmony: An Assassins Tale》Chapter 31: Johnny The Mimic
Advertisement
It was time . Time to see whether I will live or not, time for Sensei to give me my questions, yet I couldn't stop but worry because she had her sadistic look on her face. "Question Number 1: Tell me the power of each different race discovered so far." and I answered it , correctly this time. "My,my, you actually learned something, alright, now, time to continue onwards!" and she kept on asking me questions, and each of them weren't even in the books, yet I was able to solve them correctly by sheer luck and by ability of deduction. "Well done, I myself am amazed you actually solved this far, now tell me, Question Number 24: What is the meaning of SPIRITS, and what are they meant for?" and I thought for a while, then I remembered Jennifer telling me a little about it. "SPIRITS came from the Dragon Tongue. "In Dragon Tongue , it was 'Satra Pikat Iram Ripare Itrav Travpe Saotba' meaning 'Save Humans And Fight Off The Demons' and she was impressed, losing her sadistic face.
"Okay, last question, now tell me, what is my name, and what race am I? You must tell me exactly. You have 3 questions to ask, and you can't ask directly my name nor my race, or races." and this got me thinking. I could guess her name, because i need simply two questions to figure out her race, or races. I thought of it for a while, and then got an idea of who she might be. "Okay, question number 1: If you have a soul emifer, take it out, and use your most powerful attack on this ....... wall. Can you do that?" and I created a wall made of Diamond, 500 metres thick, around the north west corner of the Dimension. She then called out her Soul Emifer, so now I know that she was part human, for sure. Then, after that, she used her Soul Emifer, which looked like a gun, kind of like a Dragnuv, and when she shot it, it easily cut through the diamond, with a big hole, and even the Dimension walls were with a big hole, and she repaired it right afterwards, because if it was left open, then it could danger the entire dimension itself. After that, I asked her my second question. "If you are hiding any extra limbs or body parts, please show them to me, and if you aren't hiding anything, then , lift....... this. Also, kill yourself." I said, taking out a big dumbbell , around 2 tons in weight. Aparently she didn't have any extra body parts, so that told me she was not a Mutant, and a Hybrid, and she was able to hold the dumbbell with ease. Instead of killing herself, she simply said, "I'm not immortal." I then asked her my 3rd, and final question. "What is the name of your father, and mother?"
She seemed a bit shy at first, but then she said, "My father was Yumino Miusa, and my mother, Yuuki Miusa, Miusa was originally my mothers last name, however. " and with that I knew her name. Yumino and Yuuki were well known 'familiars' of Lords, so I knew she was there only daughter, Mikasa. With that, I thought it over once more, that whether or not she took her father surname, or mothers, so I decided it was her mothers, that she took. "Okay, I got the answer." and she nodded. "Now, lets see your skills, young man." and I told her. "You are a Hybrid, not a Mutant, because you do not have any extra limbs. You are part Human, because you have a Soul Emifer, part Dragon, because of your insanely power ME, and part demon. You can't be Flugre or Reaper, because then you would kill yourself, and you can't be an angel because you don't have a halo or wings. Since your father is Yumino Miusa, and mother Yuuki Miusa, the renowed familiars of Lords, I have came to a conclusion. Sensei, you are Mikasa of the Miusa household, and is a Hybrid of Human,Dragon, and Demon!" and she clapped.

"Well done, well done! You got everything right, except one thing, my last name. Although it made more sense I would've taken my Mother's last name, I changed my last name myself, to my Father's last name, Yuta. So I am Mikasa Yuta, not Mikasa Miusa, but I will let it slide, because you have deduced it well. You've passed the third test of phase 1. Now, to finish phase 1, Mimic every single Soul Emifer you have seen so far, that includes Yartsdra, Tou's body armor, and any other you have seen. Hartsen's and LesLout's, perhaps?" and I did as she told me. Aparently with her she had the real version with her. "No, this too, is a replica, you've made it previously, and is 3 times stronger than the original, I would like you to make another one, that is 5 times stronger than the original, which is around 1.666 times stronger than this one, here, I'll show you it's strength." This time, Mikasa recreated the wall, making it 3 kilometers high, because the room wasn't that big. She then jumped up to the top of it, and pierced the centre of the 3 kilometer high stack of steel, and the impact of it was so strong, I felt the shockwaves all the way down here, rippling. There was a big crack on the floor, and it almost sucked me in, when she sealed it. "Oops, I forgot about that, we are in the midst of the Dragon Dimension Void, but a bit special, a bit more... whats the word... dangerous? I don't know. Anyways, you need to recreate it, and make it so that it does this same damage, but 5 kilometers high. You have 1 year to practice, and then I'll see your results. After that, we will do the same for the other weapons you know, and I'll show you how to quickly analyse and use a Soul Emifer to your own wish." and with that she went back to her house, and locked every single door.
I myself continued training, knowing that it would almost be time for me to leave this place and check on Hazen, its been only 8 days out there, so who knows what he has been doing. Knowing him, most likely he is lazing around eating a pack of Yals, a well known chip company. I suppose by now he's playing Subway surfers, and already killed my savings. Well now I need to work more when I come back, because I've been working part-time at pretty much anywhere, because the school is still closed and all. It's going to be opened again around 2 years Earth Time. I first tryed to call on Yagrik to create a replica of Yartsdra, but when I attempted to, I was only able to create the shaft , and then Yagrik was fully used, so I knew I had to do either two things. A was to make Yagrik bigger, B was to make Yagrik denser. Making it denser would need alot of energy of compression, and so I decided that was a big no-no, so first I would make it big, and then compress it later onwards. Since Yagrik's size depending on my mind's sharpness, I supposed it was going to enlarge by quite a bit, but I realized not quite. This time, I had to go back and study a bit more, and I spent 2 months studying alot more about the others. I realized what Hybrids and Mutants were. Hybrids were more of a creature born into life by other types, whereas a Mutant was something that was genetically made. So , suppose a Dragon, and a Demon mated, the Dragon would firstly have to change its form, because a Dragon's body would be to large. After those two mated, they had a child, who would be 50% Dragon and 50% Demon. Suppose than, another person had an Angel and Human as father and mother, she would be 50% Angel and 50% Human, now if this person and the previous were to mate, they would have a chance of having a child of those 4 types, and if that mates with another that has the other 2, it will be a full hybrid, a Perfect. However, if a 100% Human was to be genetically modified with parts of the other races (usually gathered from corpses), than it was able to have the powers of these, yet they would be weaker than a Hybrid overall, yet stronger, in single. so If it was a battle between a Hybrid, and a Mutant, and they both had all 6 races discovered at the moment, then the Mutant would have a better chance at winning.

After spending two months of studying, I understood more and more about this universe and the others, and I was believing I was able to create my own portal to jump, but that is a major killer of ME. It seemed hard at first, but understanding all this was simple. I then called on Yagrik, and , just like I thought, it was much bigger, and seemed denser. I didn't know this as a fact, but I believed that Mikasa was watching me, probably reading a newspaper or something, I don't know what she does for a living, but I wondered who's familiar she was, to be locked up into here, I supposed she was RagNar-Ok's. I didn't have the guts to ask her as well.
I tried called Yagrik again and transforming it into Yartsdra , and this time I was able create it fully. I decided it wouldn't be that strong, so I decided to first make it a kilometer high. I then jumped up, with the help of my ME, to go up, and then I pierced the steel. I was stupefied. I didn't even pierce it, my Yartsdra makeshift wasn't even able to dent a little bit of the steel. I then noticed that Mikasa came out of no where, laughing, clapping her hands. "Ha,ha,ha! Well done, Johnny! You have officially created a clone that isn't even 10 times weaker, more like 30 times weaker! But still, good job on getting the details, now you just have to densen Yagrik more, and there's a different method to that. Increasing Yagrik's size depends on Will power, and Mind, however, making it more dense, depends on your physical strength. So , increase your physical strength, before trying. We still have 9 years left, so don't worry about time, spend like 2 or 3 hours a day." she said, in a kind tone, afterwards.
I then knew I had to train, and become stronger, because at this stage, I was still very weak. I couldn't believe just how strong Yartsdra really was, because with the amount of Yagrik I had, I could easily make two perfect clones of myself, and even without my assassin skills, I would be plenty powerful. I knew now just how weak I was, and that I couldn't hold a candle to Diablo, not yet, anyways. I continued my training, spending 7 months punching iron and steel, trying to bust a hole just with my fists, and everytime I started having my knuckles bleed,I would repair it, and since I've been more use to repairing, it now also comes in instinct, like my barrier, which is almost perfect now, thanks to Hazen. I then looked up, to the bright future that was ahead of me. Yet I didn't know, I didn't know that rather than a bright future ahead, it was a dark and gloomy one , filled with death and despair.

"Humanity is on the cusp of their Great Expansion. It will be the first time in history that they’ve reached beyond their own solar system in an attempt to colonize the galaxy. Or, at least, so they thought. Peeling back the veil of time, The Empire of Sol has uncovered vestiges of a secret genetic program on the far flung planet of Hod. The advent of the Empire’s ancient enemy could upset the careful balance of power throughout in the Sol System. When Hod is invaded by the Empire, Andros Aeton is pressed into their service and his people are held hostage. Unbeknownst to him, factions within the Empire vie to use him to their own ends. He must claim his heritage if he has any hope of escaping the clutches of the forces that seek to use him." This is a work in progress. Major editing will be done after the book is complete, so there will be egregious typos and parts that make no sense whatsoever. Please feel free to point any and all of these things out. Chapters WILL get edited, and that editing might break earlier chapters. I will attempt to keep readers apprised of all changes. As always, feedback is welcome and appreciated.

Entangled Fates Book 1 - Quantum Beginnings
“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.” —Eliezer Yudkowsky Hey all, we're moving over to book 2. This content is in a state of transition. The book is now availble on Amazon (includes extra chapters): https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07W1534R8 Artificial intelligence was nearly mankind’s last invention. AI took off like a rocket, then when it racked up an impressive death toll, it crashed before it could blossom and took most high-tech industries with it. Resistance and fears became deep-set. Two decades after the infamous Rev. 4.6 incidents, humanity hasn’t quit dreaming of the wealth and power that could be at their fingertips. A new generation of mega-corporations rose from the ashes. When one melds a quantum computer to a barely functional mental patient as a PR move, there are those who seek to profit, those who want to destroy it, and Alex. Alex Sage is a typical college student trying to keep up his grades and maybe find a meaningful connection with the fairer sex. Then, an automated semi crashes into his home, killing his family and turning his head into a pin cushion in the process. Alex awakens to find most of his memories gone and an illegal AI hidden in his brain implant. Now the pet project of a tech billionaire and heavily in debt, Alex struggles to stay valuable enough to be kept online. Still grappling with the repercussions of his injuries, and threats from a dangerous anti-augmentation political movement, there are no easy answers and threats loom around every corner. Alex must use whatever resources he can to escape from under the thumb of a ruthless corporation, while keeping those he comes to love safe. Chapters will stay up on RRL until Aug 10. It'll go up on Kindle Unlimited after that. How do you get those extra chapters I didn't have planned for RR? If you want them, they'll be in the published book. Book 2 will still make sense without them - I made sure of that. But... isn't $3 a lot for extra chapters? Think of it as tipping me for a good job and you'd also be getting my eternal thanks. If you enjoyed it so much that the idea of missing out a few chapters haunts you, I did my job as an author and made an engaging story. What's in those extra chapters? Resolving a few issues, set up for the cybernetic revolution, a rather intense sex scene with a new partner, revelations of who's really pulling strings, and a bit of set up for book 2. Complaints that people missed out on it when it was published here won't help (sorry!). I posted this for the folks who helped me shape the book, which is you all! (Again, yay!) But... Why! Why not keep it all on RR forever? My editor likes being paid for one. For two, I'd like the ability to get broader readership. If I break even on editor costs, I'll be incredibly happy. What about book 2? Drafts for Book 2 will go up around Sept 10. My draft of Book 2 is done, and it will be handed to the editor once Book 1 is published. Feedback has been even more positive. Beta readers devoured it and wanted more. I'll add a link to Book 2 once it's up on RR. I'm more or less, using you all for Beta Readers, so you get it before it's "canon" and edited. I invite active and meaningful feedback during this process. In return, you get early access to chapters. That does mean that the book content or plot might be adjusted before it gets published as I refine it. Sex Y/N? Yes. I heard the feedback, 90% wanted it explicit. You all will get the "full" experience. Will I dump all of book 2 here? Honestly, I'm not sure yet. At a minimum, it'll be up to the 75% mark as we collect feedback, much like what I did with book 1. It really depends on how good the feedback is and how nice people are. Lots of support + meaningful feedback to make it better = higher likelihood you get all the book. Will be it up here indefinitely? No, it'll probably go up on KU at some point, but I'll make sure there's enough time for a large readership to grab it here. Then we move to book 3 which already is around 60K words already. What about other adventures in the same universe/characters? Yep. Absolutely. Nothing ready to share yet though. I plan to keep those side chapters and more slice of life stories as RR exclusive. Since I'm carving this off in book-sized segments, I'll have to figure out where those disconnected story arcs belong. I'm open to suggestions.

Bastard's Wrath
The Wyvern reared its humongous head, serpent neck coiling back, onyx scales of opulence shimmering in the dimness of the cloud smothered sky. It spoke, eye's ashen, like the surface of a star, "What is it you desire, boy?" The word's rolled from it's pointed maw, tongue flicking, it's deep and ferocious voice sending the ground below rumbling. Damien looked up, hair sodden with rain, his face battered beyond recognition, his lips curled into a snarl. He had gone past the point of being frightened; he was tired of his weakness. He spoke, voice wavering, mist floating from his mouth in the coldness: "I want them dead. I want everyone who stabbed me in the back; dead." The Wyvern smiled, rows of teeth exposed, "Then sacrifice it. Sacrifice your humanity." - The story of a bastard within a crippled family,who beyond all odds becomes known as the Greatest Swordsman to live: the one that, even the Gods, would someday fear.

Now instead of worrying about SATs and college applications, he only has demons, magic and rips though the very fabric of the universe to occupy his mind. Quite a bit easier in his opinion.

I’m also a very new writer, so please let me know of any mistakes you see! Updates Mondays and Thursdays Image credit: Credit: NASA, JPL-Caltech/S.
