《Path of Damnation》Day 36: Kaisers Day on the Road
Advertisement
My forces marched through the burned path that had been laid out thanks to that blasted orc.
We marched through the road that had been built out of fire and despair.
The road we had carved that had split the forest of the elves in two. The bloody road that had allowed my Horde, to invade Elven kind under the bidding of the Legion.
Even though we had created a terrible scar upon the lands of Thecillia, at least we did not have to spill any blood.
As much as I hated the road, it was a good one as it allowed me to move my forces back towards the Fortress quite smoothly.
Even though the road shortened the journey by quite a lot, we still had a long time before I could reach my master if my horde continued at this pace.
Even the current pace I was going at made my horde unhappy, seeing as how they were trudging behind me with looks of annoyance plastered upon their faces.
The speed we were moving at wasn't the main reason for my hordes unhappiness. The main reason was that we had been marching for days and instead of bloodshed, war and glory, all they had gotten was happiness and peace.
That was not what my horde had in mind when we set out to conquer the elves.
No conquering force ended their war with a few words and flattery. Well, not usually anyway.
I found them quite foolish to be displeased with my actions. I'll make them come to accept my view in time.
It didn't matter if they accepted or not, because they'd find out that if they didn't, bloodshed isn't as fun when it is applied to you.
Ignoring my hordes wildly exaggerated huffing and puffing, I forced them all to once again, increase our marching speed.

Turning around, I looked over my hordes soldiers and saw that a lot of them wanted to complain.
I was honestly bored, so I would be quite happy if one did, but none of them had the gall to do so, so I'd have to pick one of them myself.
Seeing that I had turned around, all of my soldiers had immediately brought out their stern and stoic faces.
I turned to the orc who had the most displeased face amongst all the orcs near me just a moment ago.
Seeing that I had locked my eyes onto someone aside from themselves, all the orcs except the one I was looking at, had relieved expressions on their faces.
Kaiser: “You” I growled out slowly towards the orc who was now shivering in fear “I see you are displeased” I smiled at him, and all he managed to reply with was 'Mhmm' with a shake of his head “Come on now” I cooed towards him “Tell me what you are displeased about?” I commanded him, daring him to complain out loud.
All the members of my horde who were surrounding the orc I had locked onto had already begun to slowly distance themselves from him.
It seems like no one wanted to aid their comrade.
All the orcs and beastmen who had been accompanying, gossiping and complaining with him just a mere moment ago abandoned him in his time of need.
He looked left and right for support but seeing he was alone, he began to shake outright.
Kaiser: “Well?” I asked him acting as if I was angry “TELL ME” I roared to which he screamed like a little girl in fear.
Orc 77: “I…” he paused stuttering as he attempted to think of something to say “I.. I… I-I-I” he couldn’t get the words out “I-I-I-I… Ah… Uh.. Ah.. I-I.. I” I really didn’t want to do this, but I had to discipline this horde of mine that was seriously getting annoying lately.

They had been huffing and complaining for days now and that was no way a horde should act.
Kaiser: “Oh, so that is how it is huh” I acted angry “Talk and gossip all you want, but when I ask you a question, I get the silent treatment? IS THAT HOW IT IS?” my roared echoed across the forest causing many of my horde members who were close to me to flinch.
I moved my eyes across the people around me and they all turned away when I stared at them.
Orc 77: “IM SORRY! I REALLY WAS NOT COMPLAINING” he yelled out to my surprise “SEE, LOOK AT MY FACE, A GIANT SMILE” and with that he had the most hideous smile I had ever seen.
I guess that is why orcs don’t usually smile.
Kaiser: “That’s what I thought, now you come next to me and walk by my side from now on” and with that I brought the terrified orc to come and walk by my side.
But my discipline had worked and I now had my horde moving at triple the speed without a single sound coming out of it.
A fast, silent and deadly horde.
What else could I ask for?
Leaving my horde alone.
I wonder what my master was doing.
He should have begun or nearly finished his preparations to begin his march.
Hopefully it’s the former as that would mean I could catch up and we can march together.
How I miss my master.
It’s been too long since we have separated.
I wonder what he made Ghum’bil do.
That blasted orc had decimated the Lion tribe, a powerful tribe that could have aided us immensely.
Nonetheless, I’m sure master has punished him properly.
Smiling, I marched with my horde in a very happy mood.

Ak here,
Sorry for the late chapter.
This one is quite short, (1000ish words), so I'll put another one as well. That way I make up for not putting the chapter I promised to put up 2 something days ago.
Love and Peace,
-2nd Chapter in a few minues.

The Arcane Gunslinger
A lazy celestial being's mistake leads to Sergeant William Remington, a decorated member of the Coalition Marines, to be placed into a new body. His old life aboard the Valkyrie, an interstellar destroyer has also been replaced as he finds his new body in an unknown world. Where he learns of magic, skills, the system, helhorses, and slinging lead with ancient revolvers. Initially, he is skeptical of his new norm but the desire to survive leads him to try to earn a living while he figures out what just happened to his life. He's a fighter but far from the elite, a grunt with some experience. But what better way than to fall back to what he's familiar with, weapons and going after criminals and rebels. With the added challenges of monsters. This is my first Litrpg writing. It's a wild west fantasy setting with the MC taking a role as a gun-slinging bounty hunter in a world of magic and monsters. Hope you enjoy it. UPDATES AT 3PM EST ON MONDAYS AND THURSDAYS! Warning. The story has a slow start because I'm trying to keep my MC realistic. It takes him some time to adjust to his new surroundings, start to make some friends, and really get into the swing of it. I kind of think it's dumb when an isekai's MC manages to blink twice and suddenly adapts to their new world without any sort of struggle or learning period. So not doing that but don't worry Will may be confused and a bit unfocused at first but he'll grow into his own. Also using it to practice my digital artwork... which is far from par but improving. Keep an eye on author notes for maps and depictions of monsters and characters.

Don't Come Inside, Okay?
Lars Cromwell just got dumped by his girlfriend of 3 months, apparently because she found someone better. Although the normal man would have been bummed out by this, Lars didn't particularly mind. Because Lars just won the lottery, which meant he was about a billion dollars richer now. And he had one less person to share it with! Even if he was single, at least he was filthy stinking rich! In any case, this is Lars' story. A story that begins just like how many others do. With his death. Join Lars as he reincarnates into another world as his Avatar together with his favorite game's Dungeon and it's NPCs! = This Work is on an indefinite Hiatus. I do not know when I'll get back to this, but I plan to rewrite a bunch of stuff when I do. If you liked this, keep following it so that I can inform you of when I improve this! = Hello, I'm Lire, and this is my 2nd fiction. I recently got into the whole dungeon thing, and thought that I wanted to write one of my own! Chapter Length: 2000+ Words. It can only be more, never less. Chapter Release Schedule: Whenever I can write. I am juggling this with my main Fiction, so yeah... Disclaimer: - Don't expect much statistical growth from the MC. Although I plan for him to refine his techniques and increase his repertoire. - You can guess from the name, but there will not be too much action in the dungeon itself. Plus, the dungeon has been fully built, so not too many things will be added either. The whole idea is to kill potential intruders before they enter the Dungeon. - This will be more like a Kingdom building story, than a Dungeon Building one. MC will try to dominate his surroundings so that he can keep his Dungeon safe. - There will be Slice of life elements, since realistically speaking, events aren't supposed to happen all the time. - This work is inspired, to a certain extent, by Murayama-sama's Overlord Light novel. Minus the 'emotionless' undead MC, and the premise of misunderstandings. The NPCs will also be aware that they were characters in a game, that came to life for some reason, so no need for MC to role-play to pull the wool over the eyes of his own allies. Also, unlike Overlord, there is a chance for the cast of characters to increase through a built-in gacha system(This is not a spoiler, this will literally be explained in the first few chapters.), except that the rates are absolutely abysmal, so it won't happen frequently. Maybe I'll use a poll to decide the next ally? We'll see.
