《There can be Darkness without Light》Chapter 3: Finally get to go outside ( A bit rewritten and edited)
Advertisement
Days are slowly going by. I enjoy this kind of life because i never had it before. My mom spoils me while my dad talks about his greatness like an idiot he is. Mother just laughs at him. It's fun growing up. You get to experience many things.
After my fourth birthday when i got my own room i finally started doing some work. I asked dad to make me an wooden sword if he could and he did. And i must say even if my dad behaves like an idiot he can make anything. All of my toys are DAD-made. ( see what i did there?huehue)
I'm happy that i was able to start my second life in this kind of a family. They show love and care for me. And they hold no greed. My mom didn't even care about the Dirkas clan that my uncle took over, but she was sad that many of her loyal servants died and that grandpa died. And she was even planning on revenge but then she got pregnant and didn't care any longer. Or that's what she thinks at least but i can still see it in her eyes, she wants justice to be brought forth.
I guess now at least i have an goal and a purpose for my training.
Every time i'm alone in my room i use that time to gain some muscle, but my body is still that of an child so i'm forced to limit my training. But the wooden sword swinging doesn't burden my tiny body that much.
I also noticed something that has to do with the Magma. I don't know if this is supposed to happen but sometimes i can see.
+1 Strenght
Mom didn't mention anything about this while explaining but so far since i turned four and started training four months have past. And soon i will be four and half years old. And in those four months i have gained twelve+ strenght. seventeen+ agility and eight+ vitality. It surprised me. Because when i remember my moms status she had very little strenght and vitality, yet i gained so much in just four months. I guess my development is a bit abnormal. But it doesn't surprise me, even thought the body is that of an pure blood vampire it is still my soul that's within it.
So far i don't seem to be able to wield any magic other then void and darkness. Because basically, my soul is the void and the darkness. But my control over them is weak for some reason. Must be because my sealed body has 10 spears of Truth stabbed through it. Every single one of those spears took me years to create. Pouring every single element with in them. If even one of those spears was to explode then i'm pretty sure one good chunk of the universe would be damaged.

But i don't mind the weak control. It's perfect like this.
Right now my void control is very weak but i can still use it to enhance my body while i can't devour anything with it right now. Darkness on the other hand. Zero. I'm supposed to be the darkness and i can feel it within me yet nothing. It must be because this body is too weak. If i was to used even a tiny bit of the darkness the soul would be unharmed but it's a different situation for the vampire body. My soul is the darkness but this body is not. Same thing goes for my soul weapon. I'm pretty sure once i turn ten i won't be able to summon it. But i have that already figured out. Once i turn ten my control over the void should be good enough to create an void blood bound weapon. It shouldn't take me long to make two good daggers once i have more control over the void. But i will deal with it when the time comes.
Right now it's night outside, perfect time for vampires to go hunting. I was planning to sneak out and to inspect the creatures that are in this forest but that plan died shortly after i found out that every night my dad goes hunting and guarding. Looks like he wants to make sure that no harm comes to us, after all the Dirkas clan is still after my mom.
Even tough dad is an idiot he still has some brain left. He's like me. When it comes to his loved ones he will do anything.
And mom knows that. That's why she acts tough in front of him and me. She tries to hide those feeling of revenge to not worry my father.
By the way my mom is one whole realm stronger then dad. A normal warrior vs a master warrior is like a amature against an master. So you can think to yourself how a normal 3rd rank warrior would fight against an 1st rank master mage. My mom used to be a 5th rank master mage but vampire births are bloody like i said. A female giving birth will lose her cultivation whole was down to 1 of the real she's in at the moment.
But as i was looking down out the window i saw my dad coming back from his hunt. On his back he carried two creatures, One was a sneak like creature with two arms below it's head. The creature was about two maters long, the creatures name was Borrow sneak.It was only a primary rank two monster and it was known for it's patience, it could wait for days for pray to come then it would jump at it. The other creature he had was what it looked like to be a large bird without any wings, it had all the looks of an bird but no wings. The creature was called the runner. The runners look almost harmless they are 1 mater tall but when they open their mouth you would be more scared of then of that creepy looking sneak. In fact you wouldn't even know it was a ranked monster until it would open it's mouth, there is no tongue only teeth. The upper jaw and the lower jaw all just teeth everywhere. Only then would you pull out your weapon to fight the creature. The runner are a bit stronger, normal runners are middle second ranked monsters.

As i continued to look down the window my dad summoned forth his soul weapon. His soul weapon was a long sword and it was normal looking except for that one of it's sides had teeth.
*CHOP**CHOP*
With two fast swings he chops both of the heads from the monsters, at first i didn't know why he was doing that. I mean more meat is more meat, right? But later i found out that they didn't want me to become scared of the creatures. Haha how lucky can i be? To stumble into this kind of an family that worries even about those little thing.
-Flashback-
-Life: How long do you plan to look in that damn well?-
-Hisrom: But big sis this is the only way i can see the outside world. Please only a bit more and i will answer some wishes then.-
-Life: If it was me, you know that i would let you watch for as long as you like. But God wants you to do your share of work i'm sorry HIsse.-
-Hisrom: Only one more month, then i promise to answer wishes for as long as father wants!-
-Life: Sigh... Alright, but only one more month, i don't want God to punish you.-
-Hisrom: YES! I promise big sis only one month and then i'll answer the wishes.-
-Life: Ok, have fun now, big sister has to do her own work now. Bye~Bye~
-HIsrom: Bye big sis!-
Yes! Now i can watch and learn for one month! I have to use this time perfectly. Hmmm. What planet should i watch first.
Ohhhh this one. Errrr Earrr Ahh! Earth! Isn't that the name of the element? Ohh whatever, let's just see what this Earth is like.
As the Well of Truth zooms in it goes straight to a big building that looked like an castle. When the Well zoomed in Hisrom saw something which he wished he didn't.
In one of the castle halls there was a cell that was full of children. All of those children were chained to the wall unable to move. Most of them were boys while the others were girls that looked like boys, their haircuts and everything matched boys the only reason i can tell gender is because my eyes of truth. Their ages were between what looked like ten to fifteen. Some of the children were missing an arm or an leg while other just stared at the wall lifelessly.
Hisrom stared at the Well with eyes wide open. Shocked. How could they treat their own like this? What is the purpose of this? Why not just free the children. Slowly a tears started to run down his eyes. As the Giver he mostly sees the happy families.
Why?! What did those children ever do to be treated like this!
-Flashback-
I'm so happy that i got born into one of those happy families.
As Hisdram was lost in his thoughts his dad noticed him looking trough the window and yells.
-Dad: Hisdram it's time for bed or do you not wish to go outside tomorrow!-
Ahh i totally forgot. Tomorrow's supposed to be the day when mom finally has agreed to let me go outside! Yes i can't wait.
And like that i went to sleep.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The next day when i woke up mom had already heated the water with her magic for me to take a bath. After the bath we had breakfast. Me and mom ate the runner while dad just sucked some hunter rabbits dry. While having breakfast we talked about what was to be done today. But it was mostly about mom just nagging to be careful outside.
-Mom: Hisse sweetie you know now what we talked about today?
-Hisse: If dad tries to take me deeper into the forest i pull of the ribbon. If dad talks about how it's fine to sneak out when mom is sleeping i pull the ribbon. If dad leaves and doesn't look after me for a long period of time i pull the ribbon. If dad starts saying something stupid you don't listen.-
-Mom: Perfect.-
I can swear that dad looked at the ribbon and then shivered. Poor guy. All i can see around my finger is a red ribbon, but what dad sees is the red ribbon of death. Hehe i might be able to use this.
Hisdrans eyes start to shine as he gets an genius idea about how to use this ribbon to make dad let him explore.

Tempest Rogue
This story follows Auron, a man who has been plagued with vivid nightmares his entire life. While running away from a beating, a splitting headache causes him to fall to his knees. Once again his nightmares bleed into reality. The next "episode" he has brings him from the scene of his nightmare, to a posionous swamp. To make matters worse his memories from earth are fading, and these nightmares that plagued his childhood, filled with darkness and a red coocoon, are back and worse than ever. As he clings to the only memories he has left, he is forced to fight through a world of brutal blood thirsty monsters, dungeons, and a complex magic system governed by an ancient agreement. First time writing any sort of story. Everything is still a work in progress. As I improve on my writing I will go back and edit parts. Early chapters are subject to change as I grow my ability. I am going to try my best to write this world and improve as I go. My goal is to make my dream come to life through the medium of text. This is why I wanted to post it here. Feel free to comment, and bring constructive criticism. Hope you enjoy! More info (Spoiler warning): only read if you are picky, read a lot, and want to waste no time with a story you may not want read. This book is a litrpg. This means it contains stat tables, and other game elements. (Which you may gloss over if you would like) It is written in a fantasy world, in the style of a progression fantasy. The main character grows in power as the story plays out. My characters are written to my best ability, but you may find them immature. The MC has to adjust to fighting, and killing which he struggles with for a while. His partner is a magical salamander who is a friend and mentor. The world building, monsters, and descriptions are also low tier. (I am working hard to change that!) If you are okay reading something by someone who is just getting started then welcome! I am doing my best, and incrementally improving as I go.

RETURN, A Dark Lord story.
Return, Synopsis In the Triangulum Galaxy, one of a number of galaxies controlled by the Empire of The DARK LORD, JENNA OF CHRISTOS finds herself on the run after she killed a patrolman. Becoming pilot on a pirate craft, several years later she and other pirates are devastated by attacks of the Imperial Legion and are now trying to regroup. Seeking funds that will help them hide out for a time, their leader THURGOD DRISTA and JENNA meet with a PROFESSOR of galactic history who gives them information, a map and an ancient artifact described as a singing stone. He tells them that this could lead them safely to a legendary treasure trove, called THE DARK LORDS HOARD, on the forbidden planet TRILLA. The hoard is supposed to belong to the ruler of the empire who vanished close to one thousand years before and is presumed to be gone. The treasure is believed to be hidden in a tunnel accessible from the planet surface but no one who has gone into the tunnel has ever come out alive or sane. Leaving the pirate hideout immediately after the meeting and avoiding a major attack by the legion, the pirates travel to the galactic rim for supplies and to leave a false trail. With them they take the PROFESSOR and ILISA, a serving girl. However CAPTAIN TRASKA the commander of a Legions task force called Detachment T, has guessed the pirates intentions and tracked them to the rim. The pirates leave on their next leg to TRILLA unaware that CAPTAIN TRASKA with his force of heavy cruisers, is already there and lying in wait for them. Allowing the pirates to land, including an unexpected second pirate ship, CAPTAIN TRASKA sends a force of troopers to capture both craft and their guards. Before they can do this, THURGOD, the PROFESSOR and others, numbering thirteen altogether and led by JENNA entered the tunnel complex. JENNA, warned by ILISA that she must be the one to hold the singing stone, carries it in the hope that it will guide her and her companions past the many dangers in the tunnel. Shortly afterward, VIS VISTRICER the Legions overall commander travels to Trilla in an armoured planetoid, a spacecraft as large as a moon. On his arrival at TRILLA, VIS VISTRICER meets with CAPTAIN TRASKA but before they can do much, they are both surprised by one of the LADIES OF THE CIRCLE who is waiting for the outcome of what is happening in the tunnels. In the tunnels, JENNA leads THURGOD and the rest of party through many dangers and tests. Four are killed in the tunnels but the rest finally come to their goal where, to their surprise, in a cavern they meet the DARK LORD who is alive and very well. He has been waiting for them so he can return to the Empire. JENNA finds out that the patrol officer is alive and that she and many others have been manipulated all this time by the DARK LORD. She also finds out that ILISA, whose real name is JURA, is a member of the CIRCLE OF LADIES and was sent to teach JENNA many years before on her home planet of Christos. The DARK LORD restores and fulfills a promise to release JURA from her service as a LADY. He next has each pirate declare their own fate and takes them to the surfaces of TRILLA. There, at their election, he executes two of the pirates while JENNA is pardoned and some have the death penalty reprieved. The rest will face the courts of the Legion. VIS VISTRICER is raised to the rank of STAR COMMANDER, the highest rank in the Legion while TRASKA becomes a COMMODORE. The DARK LORD returns to Tihab, the administrative centre of the empire. There he takes up his residence in a surprised and disconcerted imperial palace. JENNA is returned by COMMODORE TRASKA to the planet Christos where she is welcomed by the planets rulers and her family, some of whom were aware of some of what was happening.
