《Magic Barbarian》Chap 11: Githiom goes Shopping
Advertisement
"Good day sir.," said Githiom
the merchant then recognizes the paladin as Illumian and then straightened out his clothes, not expecting such an illustrious figure visit his shop
"as to you too," said the merchant, "Popol the weapons and magical trinkets seller at your service, now don't be shy take a look at my goods Illumian
you'll find all the things you'll need for whatever quest you may plan to take, I have a special on heal potions, buy three take 1 free only for today!"
Githiom actually considered the offer but snapped back to his objective and asked Popol,
"Quite tempting sir, but I there's another purpose that I'm after, as a man of commerce, you always encounter all sorts of adventurers passing by right?"
Popol proudly said, "that is correct sir!"
Githiom then went to the point and asked the merchant,
"have you ever heard of any land or kingdom called the kingdom among the stars?"
Popol, thought for a while and tried to recall which took several minutes
"hmmmmmmmm....a country located among the stars....." he thought some more about such a ludicrous question
"ah yes!, there was once I heard among the merchants about a legend told long ago....it was just an old tale are you interested in hearing it?"
"of course!" Githiom's face lit up
Popol then stretched out his hand and opened his palm,
"two silvers for a precious piece of information..."
Githiom's face then sunk and then said
"two silver coins?! I could buy half the items in your shop with that amount!"
Popol then slyly but politely smiled.
Well it seems you are eager to know and you must know good sir that I'm running a business,
I do need funds to run my shop" Popol then stretched out his hand and asked "two silver coins for precious information and I can guarantee you

Illumian that you will like what you hear"
************************
Githiom then looked over his money pouch and stared into the contents, he had 15 coppers and 4 bronzes, enough to buy lodgings for several days at a local inn or buy a sword, but not enough to pay for the information that the merchant had offered him.
Githiom walked out of the shop and pondered his next action, then remembered the contest that Zorm was to register them,
"perhaps the reward money will be enough, then remembering that the prize money last year was actually a gold coin and an exceptional
weapon Githiom then made a line for the inn called the "White Pony" to rejoin Zorm.

Universal Strength: Power is Everything **Indefinite Hiatus**
Power is a thing that many people greatly yearn. Those with power yearn more power and those without power yearn for it. There isn't anyone born with power that they can call their own. Power is either earned or given and in reality it doesn't matter which is better, power is power and power is everything. This is another story that has been going around in my head and I just had to let it out. I think I did a decent synopsis on this one lol. I will not be dropping my other two stories and I will be releasing one chapter of this a week as well. Chapter release is honestly whenever I can. (Warning! Story is partially wish fulfillment.) The cover art used is from Google Images and will be changed when I create one or have one created for me.

Shift (Ben 10+DCU Fanfiction)
Omnitrix+ DCU, what's not to like? The main character will not be Ben Tennyson, rather someone from our world who gains the Omnitrix Hello! This fanfiction Shift is what I wanted to do for an homage to what I thought were underrated pieces of media, Ben 10 and some DCU characters. However, I would be remiss if I didn’t add context to two of the major works that inspired Shift, Dial, and A Practical Guide to Evil. Dial is another ben 10 fanfiction, however that story takes place in the MCU, and with an adult that is already a grown-up at the beginning of the story. Dial, by my own accounts, is more superficially Like shift, even though the Omnitrix is a central device in both. My protagonist starts out around 18 years old, so is less serious and can build relationships with some of the junior justice league members, and then later on in the story meet the Justice League officially. The tone will be more light-hearted at the beginning of the story as teenagers are known to use sarcasm and jokes at each other’s expense. Furthermore, in Dial, the protagonist has a well-developed knowledge of the MCU which he uses to have knowledge on events and characters, that the character in Shift will not have. While the MC will have some knowledge of people's abilities, lesser-known characters and people's real identities will be not included as much, but the MC of Shift will have some knowledge. APGTE's influence is deeper than Dials'. The epigraphs at the beginning of every chapter are an example of that, a place for light-hearted jokes and worldbuilding that's not pure exposition, but I also want to incorporate narrative stories to Shift (heroes win more than lose, providence, etc) on a lighthearted scale. While the heroes of Shift will have to work to win against villains, the MC of Shift will be allowed limited precognition, through narratives tropes and archetypes as a trade-off of less knowledge of the DCU. For example, a villain a hero faces might monologue, but the MC will not instinctively know how to counter every villain they encounter. I also wanted to bring in more realism than usual superhero stories, ie: the MC cannot just walk and have a meeting with Batman or Superman, he would have to “work his way up” in terms of credibility and whatnot. The Aliens that show up in Shift I tried to make different than the ones in Dial, just to share the love for lesser-known characters. And to make it fairer for the villains of the DCU, the main character will not wantonly use if gain at all an Alien X or a ben 10 form of Kryptonians, just so the characters have to work a little bit for victory. I urge anyone reading to consider checking out both APGTE and Dial as they are both amazing works, and I hope you enjoy them. The beginning of how the MC enters the DCU will not be as important as him actually existing in that universe, so that is why a ton of time is not spent on that part of the story. Chapters will be around 2.5 thousand words and come out around every weekday.
