《Ember》Chapter 1-Princess left the castle
Advertisement
Bangggg!....
With loud noise something crashed and i feel ground shaking .
I jumped up from bed as my core crystal flashed rapidly , i run from my room without caring about anything .
I could see smoke and explosion outside from crystal walls . It looked as world is coming to an end .
I saw crystal wall behind me collapsing as a half torn soldier in Azure crystal armor broke into dust .
I panicked and ran towards main hall .
bam!....
I crashed into someone running in opposite direction .
As i focus on person in front of me . I smiled as he was my uncle . There was also one royal guard beside him .
" We are under attack . Take this command crystal and go to azure pool . Try not to use secondary command as much as possible . Ok i will come for you " he handed me a command token and moved away .
As i stood there looking at him wanting to ask about my father , guard held my hand and we ran toward transfer point .
Explosions rocked the palace as i could see troops outside fighting in sky or on land .
Guard pulled me back quickly as i stumbled behind him .
There was bright flash and smoke rose as he blocked an energy ray . Guard moved his heavy sword as two enemies attacked from both sides .
They were fast but guard intercepted them and pushed them back with pure strength in single move .
Enemies crashed into walls and he picked me up and ran faster .
We run past scattered bodies and debris . Another enemy tried to stop us .
Guard lightly flicked at enemy to blow him away .
As we exited from a side of palace . We quickly entered the transfer point .
Light fell , and we were tranferred far at side of azure pool .

We looked toward palace in valley at far distance where ships were firing and explosions are happening .
After few moments ,
..... a bright flash of light blinded my eyes and then ground moved beneath my feet like ripples in water .
BHHOOOOMMMM......!
Closely followed by loud noise . I felt myself flying in air without sense of direction .
My eyes were open but i could not see , my ears could not hear and my body could not move .
Then i felt pain washing over me , especially my head . I stood up pushing something aside , stumbling around .
It was guard barely alive . He appeard to be badly burnt while shielding me from explosion .
I looked back at palace but it was no longer there . Space there was empty as it could get .
I unlocked the key given by my father from my necklace and put it into transfer tower , as he had instructed me many times .
It started loading , the half burnt guard was trying to stand . He could be healed by command token .
I looked around for it . But it was not around .
Thump...!
I flew and rolled on ground as someone hit me on the back .
"Princess looking for this , i was waiting for you , sorry to be late " I saw a crimson guard holding command token .
He walked slowly . My guard rolled and griped his feet tightly . I looked at key . It was still loading and required few more seconds .
He laughed and kicked the guard away and continued to walk towards me .
" I command you , as a princess . Rise and fight for me " i whispered as his hands reached towards me .
But it was too late , i could see power flowing from me to guard . And then time stopped .
It is the first time i used primary command because my father had forbid me to do so . It was my last bet for my life .

I saw , no i felt as boy named Qwizz grew up from birth . He wanted to be doctor but he was given a special task to look after baby princess.
He played with her , gave her his candies and took blame for her mischiefs .
He did not wanted this type of life . But he started to like it . As he grew up . He was no longer with princess .
She was almost adult now . He was in shadows looking after her caring for her . Always close but away from her eyes .
One day he heard emergency signal . Then crash and wildly running princess out of her room .
He followed her to outside , shielding her from falling debris . He got instruction to protect and evacute her .
Then he shielded her from explosion and tried to helplessly protect from a crimson guard .
As all life of guard flashed past me . I felt his every happiness and sorrow and struggle .
Time started to move again . Crimson guard in front of me was pushed aside as now healed guard jumped on him .
Guard roared and punched the enemy in face . They rolled on ground kicking all dust and ash .
I stood there startled by everything that happened as i feel faint connection with my guard .
They shattered energy shields of each other stabbing , slashing and firing projectiles . They were too fast .
Earth cracked , and explosions followed . I had never imagined this level of power .
Teeeeee..!
I heard the noise of successful key loading . I looked at them fighting , reluctant to leave him behind .
I felt him requesting me to board the ship as more enemies were coming here .
I boarded the ship looking at him surrounded by enemies and i was covered in lights .
I was transferred to external ship hundred of metres long containing big pilot shell with fast revolving layers in which i sat .
I waited as crystal layers formed around me then ship flew faster and faster to leave behind my home planet .
Slowly ship trembled and pilot shell is ejected from ship as ship crumbled away and only shell reached into higher dimension .
Layers of pilot shell kept revolving rapidly in different directions . Then after lightning quick journey it fell back into lower dimension .
It moved at high speed , at end i could see blue planet in front of me .
Pilot shell enterd atmosphere burning its outer layers and crashing into deep ocean .
Shell started to dissolve around and
then innermost shell containing me floated back to surface .
And i was here on distant planet called Earth .

The Wandering Scholar
Zhou Mingzie, A young Chinese American is suddenly brought into a mythical land, similar to China in many ways, but is most definitely not. This new world appears to contain cultivation elements like the Wuxia and Xanxia stories he read throughout highschool, but he can also gain Levels and Skills, I mean Paths and Techniques. Sure he is Chinese, but he grew up in America, so he doesn't want to ascend to the heavens and fight spirit beasts, does he? But Mom wants him to embrace his heritage more...jk...unless? [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Inspired heavily by The Wandering Inn and Beware of the Chicken, as well as cultivation novels in general, this story hopes to take a Westernish approach to the standard Cultivation approach, being more subtle and changing how it approaches the standard tropes of the genre, without abandoning them entirely.
