《Justice》Chapter 7 - The past
Advertisement
Ever since all these events happened, I've been wanting to get answers, and why the king was hunting me down.
"Chow, why is the King hunting me down? I've done nothing wrong"
"Because of your blood line, and because of what our ancestors did to the royal family"
"What do you mean?"
"you mean you don't know?"
I shook my head. I knew nothing of what happened in the past.
"Sigh. Sit down Laika, I'll tell you the story of the past"
I sat down to listen to Chow's story, I felt this story might take a while to tell.
"15 years ago, in the royal palace, all of the knights were quite capable of taking care of criminals, but a new threat arrived. Dragons came to the land. The King thought of this as a chance to take control of them and use them to conquer other lands. When the Dragons refused to help the King, he was furious.
"The King plotted to kill all the dragons, and succeeded in killing one, but just barely. The King heard of this and thought of an easier way to kill the dragons. He summoned his wizards and sorcerers and they performed experiments, and after many years, they finally found a weakness. Dragonite stone, created from boiling dragon blood and diamonds. The King was pleased to find that his army finally might have a chance to beat dragons. He sent a army of 50 men all with Dragonite swords and arrows"
"The army was surprised with their discovery, the dragons drew weak when they got too close to the stone and upon being hit, could not move. After they defeated 5 dragons, they felt like going on a killing spree but decided to stop and tell the king their discovery. When the King heard of this victory, he was speechless, pleased that after months of experimenting and test but after a while, he began to chuckle, and that chuckle turned into a laugh... a demonic laugh"

"Those pathetic dragons think they are superior to mankind! but with our new weapons and armor, they'll never stand a chance!"
"So that’s what they did. The king had the finest blacksmiths in the kingdom craft more Dragonite swords, halberds, arrow tips and armor. Now at that time the king's army had many men and armor, so the king finally made up his mind... he declared war on dragon kind"
"Little did the king know, the dragons also had an ace up their sleeve. There were some people who respected dragon kind and wanted to help them in war. That's when one smart dragon came up with an idea. This dragon asked for firstborn over the age of 15 and had them train for weeks before the war, and during that time he asked for one child to help him with experiments. A week before the war, the dragon finally came out from his cave with the boy"
"What the people saw changed the way people thought the dragons where capable of"

An Unwavering Craftsman
Given the hereditary nature of classes, everyone expects Damien—the child of two high-tiered adventurers—to be granted a high-tier combat class of his own. Expectations are betrayed, however, when Damien finds himself instead saddled with a crafting class of the lowest possible tier: [Neophyte Tailor]. Left practically crippled compared to those with better classes, Damien wants to avoid becoming a pawn in the machinations of the nobility, desiring only to grind his level in peace while wondering why the usual rules of inheritance were broken. Was it his desire to excel by his own effort, rather than an unearned blessing from a god? Did the Five take offence at his opinions on the unfairness of hereditary classes? Or maybe it was something to do with the alien voice that intruded on his ceremony? A voice that offers great power, and freedom from the tyranny of the Five, but that never names its price. This story is litRPG-lite. While the class someone possesses controls most of their lives, people don't get dinged at for every level they gain, nor can they see their status without undergoing a special ritual. The MC has no romantic interest. Crafting is merely a way to game the system, and doesn't feature heavily in the story, aside from a few descriptions on how they're carrying out the system abuse. There is, on one unfortunate occasion, maths. The pace is quick. This was a participant in the Spring 2022 writathon. (i.e. it was posted as-written at high speed. I may give it another editing pass in the future.)

Love, Napalm & Homicidal Fairies
When Nasilain started traveling between worlds, she hadn’t expected to get caught by a police officer. Nasilain: Traveling between worlds always filled Nasilain with dread. All those men with their friendly smiles and hundreds of questions. What was the last movie she watched? What music did she like? What country was she from? If Nasilain could use magic in this world, she would’ve blocked the flow of calcium ions in their jaw muscles just to shut them up. The scientific knowledge she could find on the internet using the free Wi-Fi in one of the local coffee shops forced her to tolerate the occasional interrogation. But even hipsters were better than Seth, the beefy police officer that caught her teleporting. Apparently, she wasn’t allowed to lie to him, which was fine as long as he didn’t ask about the clone. Seth: Seth had seen his share of bad luck. On normal days, it manifested as a shoulder injury that got him discharged from his SEAL team or wounding a civilian while on the police force. But landing in a parallel dimension with elves in neon green pants, a cute mad scientist with magical abilities, and swarms of carnivorous fairies? That was a first. At least Nasilain promised not to use her magic to split atoms. Content warning: This book DOES NOT contain zombie fairies. Everything else is fair game though.

The Swimming Pool from Another Freaking Dimension
When the world’s on fire and your garden sprinkler is not going to cut it, there’s only one thing to do: just dig. But the town’s hillbillies are laughing behind your back and your so-called mates are laying bets on you burying yourself alive and venomous spiders are breeding in your 3D printer and those fires are inching closer every freaking day. Just dig, baby. Stranded in a mountaintop suburb monitored by military drones and plagued by wildlife and weather gone crazy, Dezzy and his teenaged neighbour, Sonia, are just trying to save their homes from the next megafires – by digging the biggest, deepest, most badass swimming pool possible. A chlorinated moat at the edge of their derelict suburb that might also provide a refreshing dip in between raging infernos. Only they dig up more than they bargained for, a hell of a lot more. Never mind the secret military base, the burn-scarred locals and their Truth Church, or those birds attacking people out of the blue, because Dezzy and Sonia have bigger things to worry about, things perhaps not of this freaking near-future reality.
