"Where is he going?" Elisabeth asks Natalie.
Natalie shrugs her shoulders. "Let's follow him." Elisabeth says curiously. Elisabeth takes the hand of Natalie and she drags her towards the direction that Eric went.
"Wait." Natalie shouts.
Eric stops and he looks back. "What do you want?"
"We want to come with you." Elisabeth
Eric nods. "Where is the King?"
"He should be at his office." Natalie
"Where is the office?" Eric
"Follow me." Natalie
Eric and Elisabeth follow behind Natalie.
After two minutes of walking the group arrived at the office.
The guards at the door respectful bow at the Princess and they open the door. The armed guards stand at the side as the group goes inside.
When the group entered inside they saw the King and Arthur look at a map with a solemn expression.
"Why are you here?" The King looks at the three people.
"I want to give me the herb." Eric
"Bring the doctor here." The King orders the guards.
Natalie looks at the map on the desk curiously. "Why is the map of the Kingdom on the desk?"
"We want to see where to put the troops to defend against the beast tide from the Black Forest." The King
"Beast tide?" Eric, Natalie, and Elisabeth say at the same time.
"Every 30 years the beasts from the forest attack the Kingdom." The King
"Why the beasts come out from the forest?" Eric
"I do not know. The beasts that come out from the forest emit black smoke and they have red eyes." The King
The discussion is interrupted by the doctor when he opened the door.
Eric looks at the man that came inside the office. The old man has a tall slim figure. He has white long hair that is bonded by a hair ribbon. From his body emits the fragrance from the medicine.

"Your Majesty." Doctor bows at the King.
"Bring the medicinal herb that can help restore and revitalize the muscles." The King
"Your Majesty, the herb must be put inside a barrel filled with water to be effective." Doctor
"When is ready inform my daughter." The King
"It will take 1 hour to prepare the medicinal bath." The doctor leaves the room.
"When the beasts will attack the Kingdom?" Natalie says the question that has in her mind.
"In four days." The King
"We must protect the people that leave near the Black Forest." Natalie
"Do not worry I sent some guards to help them move in the capital." The King
Eric walks at the desk to see the map. He looks at the map carefully. "Will you defend at the fortress that exists near the Black Forest?" He looks at the King.
"Yes." The King
"If the beasts change direction and attack the capital?" Eric
"What do you mean?" The King
"The beasts may split into groups if someone controls them." Eric
All the people in the room are shocked. "I read that some beasts possess intelligence and they can order weaker beasts." Eric
"I will split the guards into two groups. One group will protect the capital and the other the fortress." The King
The discussion about the defense against the beast tide continues. All people say their ideas on how to protect the guards from the beasts.
The discussion stops when the door of the office opens as a young man comes inside. "Your Majesty, the medicinal bath is ready."
"You will continue the discussion later." The King looks at Eric.
"I will take my leave." Eric
"Follow me." The Servant
Eric looks at the servant as he is walking away and he follows him. Eric and the servant stop before they leave the office.

"We will come with you." Natalie and Elisabeth.
"You can come with us." The servant continues walking.
4 minutes later
Eric, Natalie, Elisabeth, and the servant stand in front of a door. The servant knocks the door and he waits.
"You can come in." Doctor
The servant opens the door and the people follow behind him.
"Did the King inform you that the process will be painful?" Doctor
"Yes." Eric
"Take off your clothes and go inside the barrel." Doctor
"Here?" Eric looks at the two females.
"We will leave the room and wait outside. If you can not take the pain call us to take you out of the barrel." Doctor
Eric nods, he starts to take off his clothes and he sees the content of the barrel before he goes inside. The water has become black. Eric sits inside the barrel and he waits for the medicinal bath to work. Eric frowns "Why does not the medicinal bath work?" Murmurs after 3 minutes. Eric feels that his body is a bit different now. He closes his eyes and he sees that his body absorb the black liquid. Suddenly all his body starts to ache. Eric grits his teeth and he clenches his fists to endure the sudden intense pain. The veins start to become visible on his body and his face become a bit red.
The water inside the barrel starts to become clear. The water inside the barrel turns around Eric like a whirlpool.
The pain becomes weaker until it disappears. Eric relaxes his body and he opens his eyes. He sees that the black liquid disappeared and the barrel has only clear water. Eric inspects his body to and he sees that the side effect disappears.
Eric stands and he leaves the barrel. He looks around to find a towel to wipe his body.
"Is anyone outside?" Eric shouts.
"We are waiting for you outside." Natalie and Elisabeth say at the same time.
"Bring me a towel." Eric
"I have a towel with me. Can we come inside?" Natalie
"Wait a moment." Eric
Eric looks around to find something to hide but he does not find anything so he goes inside the barrel again.
"You can come inside now." Eric
The door opens all the people that they were waiting outside comes inside.
The servant takes the towel from Natalie, he gives the towel to Eric. Eric looks at both females.
"Turn around." Eric
The females turn around and Eric leaves the barrel and he wipes the body with the towel. After he finishes he wears his clothes.
"You can turn back." Eric
"How you feel?" Doctor
"The treatment was effective." Eric
"If you need another treatment you can come to me." Doctor
Eric nods and he leaves the room with the two women.
"Are you sure everything is ok?" Elisabeth
"Yes, my body is better. I can fight again." Eric
"Let's go back to discuss with the King about the defense." Eric
A voice comes from behind them. "Do not need to go back. I am here."
Eric looks back and he sees the King. "I need to go to the fortress to help with defense."
"You go there with my daughter together. Before you leave here tell me to give you a letter that gives you freedom there." The King looks at his daughter.
Natalie does not refute because she wants to be together with Eric. Elisabeth wants to go together with them.
"Father, can I go with them?" Elisabeth
"Yes, you can go but you must be careful." Arthur
"We will leave now. Let's prepare." Eric says before he goes back to his room.

Phantom Swordsman
Jason Darting was having a walk, like normal, when he suddenly found himself literally dragged into another dimension. Now, he has to fight ghosts, get a Class – because that’s apparently a thing – and then discover that his powers make him a target for some fanatical religion, which may or may not have an actual god behind it.

Thankfully, while his Class does have some issues, it also has a great deal of potential, and Jason quickly discovers that this new world of fantasy is more exciting than he expected. Comments will be locked, cuz I have pretty bad anxiety. – Sorry!Expect corrections, because I struggle to notice a lot of mistakes until they've been posted.

School-life & Swordfights: A Clubs and Stubs Tale
Warning: Clubs and Stubs contains strong language and situations throughout that may not be suitable for younger readers. "This story takes place in a fantasy world with a modernish setting. It mainly follows four students of Hardires High School who are members of one of the greatest Team Arena Squads in the history of gladiatorial school athletics. Already two-time high-school world champions, they have entered their fourth and final year of high school in hopes of capturing a third straight world championship—something that no other school on the continent has accomplished. As they prepare for an upcoming match with a rival school, it becomes evident that keeping their two-and-a-half-year winning streak alive will be tougher than expected. As both personal and external problems abound for the student-gladiators, can they manage to keep it together under the constant pressure of being the perfect fighting unit? A blend of action, drama, adventure, and humor collide in this brand-new series!" Thanks so much for checking out my story! This is the first time that I've released any of my work to a public space so any feedback, be it positive or negative (but please be respectful if so) would be greatly appreciated. I'm hoping that this story is only the beginning of a long-running series of short stories set in the Clubs and Stubs universe. Temporary Book Cover Design by David Watson The release schedule is rather tentative, but the goal is to release a chapter every 2-4 days. I want to make sure that every scene is the best it can be before it’s released, so it may take a bit longer especially if it's a longer chapter. However, no chapter should take more than a week to be released. Each scene varies in length, but are usually between 1,000 to 2,000 words.

Blood Island
So far, life had done Nuriel Cunningham no favors. The orphaned daughter of a petty thief, she's had to grow up on the streets, with nothing but her wits, her late father's advice, and whatever luck she can scrounge up to keep her alive. However, now that luck seems to have ran out. After being discovered passing as a boy on a ship sailing the Caribbean, Nuriel is blamed for the ship's troubles and thrown overboard, seemingly to her demise. But rather than die, she awakes on the shores of a strange and terrifying island, one inhabited by monsters from a bygone age. Now she has to use every bit of cunning and skill just to stay alive, as one false step could cause her to be torn apart for some ancient creature's dinner. But as she works to stay alive and uncover the island's secrets, she becomes aware of something very troubling. There is someone else on the island, someone not quite human, a creature with glowing red eyes watching her from the shadows. And though the creature seems benevolent, perhaps even friendly, Nuriel is not about to let her guard down. After all, every stranger is an enemy, and there is nothing more dangerous than the attention of another person.

The Undying Magician
How would a true immortal with average talent in magic fare within a world where magic is everything? In the world of Aria, only a small fraction of the population are classified as magicians.These magicians are able to use magic through the manipulation of the mana they are born with and are the core of the military strength within every nation.However, one nation in particular uses magicians to an even higher extreme than the others.This nation is known as The Republic of Arcania.The largest power in Aria. Our story follows Nathan Fox as he graduates from high school and is sent to the Arcane Academy for his required military training as a magician before he eventually serves his ten year term in the military.Nathan has been a true immortal ever since he got a semi-magical disease that makes any damage done to his body instantly reverse itself, bringing him back to his top form on the day that he became an immortal. Ever since then, it has been impossible for Nathan to die.But there are worse things in the world than death.And if the power-hungry magicians of the world were to learn of Nathan's true immortality?Then he might just experience those things himself. What will happen to Nathan as he traverses life in the academy?Will his secret be found out?Or will he be able to safely make it through the four years of academy life with his secret intact? That has yet to be foretold. The beginning of the story starts out slow for what many Royal Road readers are used to and then speeds up after around chapter 20 or so. It is a school arc, so it is supposed to be slow. Most of the combat and action isn't seen until after these chapters, which you can view as an introduction to the world, the characters, and magic itself. Many of the reviews are outdated due to edits I've been making along the way through the story. Specifically some of the edits going over the world itself, including pointing out in the story some of the things a few of the reviewers missed when they wrote their reviews, along with fixing other things that were pointed out in the story from the reviews and comments. This book is also being edited as it's being written, so some small parts might change as I get suggestions from readers. I do not write harem or sexual content in my stories. Ever.
