《Multiverse of Marvel》293. Heven
Advertisement
Loki became silent when John said that he was really privileged in this regard. He had all the luxury one can think of. Being a Prince he never cared about it. But what John said was right. Now Black Winter was coming and all the past grievances needed to be together to save themselves.
"I hope we all can be together to face the upcoming danger." John said.
"Agreed. We need to be together. And I need to go to Norn Cave. Who will accompany me in this?" Thor asked. Strange got up and even Zatanna. John expected Strange to go with Thor as he had seen the future. But never expected Z to join.
"Don't want to meet Constantine yet?" John asked.
"Who cares of that assh***? I will meet him when I am in a good mood." Z said.
"Mother, you should go back to Asgard with Loki." Thor suggested.
"Yes. You should go back, Queen Frigga. I don't think the TVA will come after you anymore. The future is already in the garbage bin. There is no point anymore to fear them." John said. Frigga nodded at it as she really missed her home now. Especially after the death of her husband.
"What shall we do about our other sister?" Loki asked as he remembered another sister being present in the universe.
"Heven isn't exactly friendly to the nine realms. Opening that realm will cause a war. We will have to tread very wisely here." John said.
"Opening the realm? What does that mean?" Loki asked.
"The current 9 realms were once 10 realms. Your father sealed away the 10th realm, known as Heven after a war which broke out for supremacy of all realms between Asgard and Heven. In that war my daughter was kidnapped and killed. In anger, your father went to the Yggdrasil and cut away Heven from the World Tree sealing away that realm forever. We always believed that my daughter was killed." Frigga said.

"Until now..."
"Yes, I can sense her in that realm. But in order to save her we will have to do a tough fight. This will be an uphill battle to free her as she has already been brainwashed by them and she doesn't even know her own heritage and birth." John said.
"How dare they kidnap our sister and brainwash her? I will kill everyone in that realm." Thor said with anger.
"For once in life, we agree with each other, brother." Loki said. John shrugged at it as Heven really needed a kick in their posterior to remind them who was the boss in all the realms.
"Before saying such big things, get your power. Then we can talk about your sister." Frigga said as she too felt a little angry for being deceived by them and losing a daughter.
After a small chat with everyone, Thor, Strange and Z left for the Norn Cave where the Water of Sights was present. Every realm has it's reflection in the Water of Sights and all of the wells were connected to Yiggdrasil and originated from the Well of Mimir, the place where Odin got his power and knowledge.
Frigga, Loki, Krtaos and Atreus and Erza left for Asgard. Erza left with them in order to see her future home. Since John had said that the Fairy Tail would arrive on Asgard she needed to see the place with her own eyes.
John went to rest after everybody went away as he was a little tired from all the fighting. Especially him being impaled was painful. Even though he healed with no scars he still didn't like it.
He just went to bed and slept. He was so exhausted that he slept till the next day. He felt refreshed after waking up. He called Audino and the Spirit to make him good food as he was hungry and needed a recharge for his body.

He was having a good time when he heard a knock at the door. Audino went and opened the door only to see Thor whose vest was in tatters standing. With Z and Strange standing behind him.
"Come in." John siad.
"Can I have some sleep here my friend?" Thor asked.
"Sure. Audino, take him to the guest room." John said. Audino led him away to the guest room so that he could rest. Thor looked like he had a tough battle.
"Did he dip in the water with all his clothes on?" John asked.
"Yes." Z said.
"No wonder his clothes are in tatters. Did nobody tell him not to do so when you go swimming?" John asked.
"We wanted to but he jumped before we could say anything." Strange said.
"No wonder. Was the journey successful?"
"He hasn't spoken a word after coming out of the pond. He just asked us to take him to the Ring as he needed a good sleep."
"Hmm. Let him wake up. We will know what his deal is."

Wildling
Blurb: Silas--a scavenger living off the ruins of humanity--has spent his entire life fighting tooth and nail to provide for himself and his crew. But when a scavenging run goes awry and he's snatched up by an android patrol, he finds himself thrown into a cage and priced to sell as a pet. And when a suitor comes calling, he fears the worst: that he'll be turned into a Domestic, a human lapdog brainwashed into total obedience. Instead, he discovers an equally disturbing truth: that the creatures who stole his world have created a videogame the likes of which Earth has never seen; a sprawling, game-like theme park where humans are the Avatars and androids are the players who control them. And to make matters worse, his android guide is as hopeless as they come, having gotten all of her previous Avatars killed in record time. So if Silas wants to regain his freedom, he'll not only have to fight his way through a world that was specifically designed to murder him in brutal fashion--he'll also have to convince his android guide that he should be the one calling the shots. FAQS: Q: Who are you, handsome stranger? A: I'm Kyle Kirrin, the author of Shadeslinger, book 1 of The Ripple System, published by Portal Books, and I write crunchy LitRPG. Q: What is Wildling? And is it complete? A: Wildling is a crunchy LitRPG mash up of Fantasy and Science Fiction. And yup, Wildling is already complete at 64 chapters, or about 120,000 thousand words. You're looking at something like a third draft here--it's fairly polished, but it hasn't been picked over by a copy editor yet nor has my developmental editor seen it. Q: Upload schedule? A: 5 initial chapters today (2/15/2021) and one chapter a day for the next month. After that I'll probably slow down to 2 or 3 chapters a week until the story is complete. Q: How crunchy is it? A: It's pretty crunchy. I'd put it on the same tier as Ascend/The Land/RSSG, but it might be a bit crunchier than those three? Q: Is this the first book in a series or a web novel or what? And what are your plans for it? A: It's currently a standalone with series potential. Full disclosure: this story may head the way of my publisher eventually, but will be available on RR for quite a while no matter what. Likely several months after it's complete with plenty of warning before/if it's taken down. Q: What kind of build does the MC create? A: Sword and board! Q: Crafting? A: Plenty! Crafting isn't as center stage as it is in The Way of the Shaman, but it's close. Q: Base building? A: Two fully separate, distinct bases, both of which play a major role in the story. Q: VRMMO? Portal? Reincarnation or what? A: This one's a bit tricky. Basically an advanced race has created a game-like world that closely resembles a theme park. Think Westworld but with copious amounts of loot. And the MC has to fight his way through that to earn his freedom. Q: Permadeath? A: Nope! The MC gets 3 lives to play through the entirety of the game world, and death is extremely punishing, but not fatal. Q: Harem? Or romance? A: No and no. Q: Cursing? Blood? A: Quite a bit of cursing, yeah. There's blood, too, but it's not a gory book by any means. Q: How can I support? A: Instead of a Patreon/donations etc, I'd ask that you consider giving my debut LitRPG Shadeslinger a chance. It's free on Kindle Unlimited and the audio is already out narrated by Travis Baldree. It's an epic fantasy VRMMO where the main character gets 3 days of exclusive access to a new game plus a snarky, talking axe to guide him through it in exchange for agreeing to become the target of a serverwide manhunt once the Head Start period ends. Q: How's it similar to Wildling? And how's it different? A. The crunch level is very similar, but Shadeslinger is a much lighter, epic fantasy take on the genre. It's also VRMMO, but without any real world components aside from the first chapter. The MC is very different--he comes off as a bit of a jerk early on and can take a bit to warm up to, especially before his backstory is revealed--but he's also got a talking axe that constantly puts him in his place. Shadeslinger's a much more humorous story in general, and it's a great deal more polished as well. Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoy Wildling!

Grinning Enigma
Freddy is a very bad boy. Meets some people that know what he did. He tries to escape punishment, makes it [Redacted]. Freddy might be a mass-murdering troll, but he isn’t a bad person, right? Right? Disclaimer: This is not an instruction manual. If you want to be a horrible human being, go figure it out yourself. Autopsy: Writing this story gave me some degree of insight into how much I've managed to fuck up my own personality by suppressing basic needs. Now I hate myself even more. It started as a story where the MC was supposed to be a blend of the NZ-land shooter and other cancerous personalities. That way I wouldn't feel bad about torturing him. Instead I ended up witnessing all the worst aspects of my own personality, or lack thereof. I'm a horrid person, I can't even bring myself to do what's the only right thing at this point.
