《The Creep of Fate - Dropped》Chapter 15

“Hey Lugh what took you so long?”
“I just needed to get used to the amulet.”
“I heard that you dominated the competition. How did you write all of those in such a short period of time?”
“I didn’t really write any of those. I just plagiarized from a friend of mine.”
Joseph laughed and said “If the other nobles found out they would be green from regret.”
“Anyways how did you do in the noble tournament?”
“Good, not the best but still strong enough to beat my brothers.”
“When is the next tournament?”
“Its an annual event.”
“Oh, that’s good.”
“Are you actually going to join it next year?”
“Of course.”
“That’s good because if you join I can enter the tag team tournament.”
“Do you have any allies/friends besides for me?”
“I wouldn’t be the main successor if I didn’t. But my main support is from the commoners.”
“No noble support?”
“Besides for you I only am allies with the Deepheart family.”
“Deepheart family? I’ve made sure to learn all of the houses and political powers in the capital but I’ve never heard of the Deepheart family”
“The Deepheart family is the royal family of the Leviathans.”
“Why did you choose support of the Divine Beast families instead of human families?”
“Because the Divine Beast families power exceeds our nation's power and Divine Beast rulers don’t have power changes very often unlike human powers”
“Even if the Divine Beast families powers exceeds the human nobles power the Divine Beast families are far away.”
“Even if they are far away their future successors aren’t.”
“Who?”
“From the Kitsune side you and your sister are both from the True Family and from the Leviathan side there is a kid named Sarah who is the direct descendent of the current Leviathan king.”

“The True Family?”
“You really don’t know anything about your own family?”
“If I knew would I be asking.”
“I wouldn’t be the one to ask but basically if you are in the True Family you have a top tier bloodline.”
“Okay. Do you know why Kitsune abandon their kids at 1 or 2?”
“All I know is that it is a recent tradition.”
“Anyways I want to meet Sarah where is she?”
“Sarah is currently helping her family in the Royal Reef.”
“Royal Reef?”
“The Royal Reef is in the depths of the ocean.”
“I just realized how much I don’t know about this continent.”
He laughed and said “Of course, it takes years to learn about every part of this continent. Anyways do you want me to give you a quick geographical lesson about this continent? ”
“Yes please.”
He told be about the general locations of the continent. The main points are that we are the only country on this continent, we are surrounded by a giant ocean, have lost contact with other continents and the Royal Reef is in the depths of the eastern sea. It is also where the Leviathans live. After the mini geography lesson I asked him “I’m assuming that you wanted to talk about something more important.”
“Yeah, I wanted to ask you if you know about your family's condition?”
“What happened to my family?”
“Well it’s not just your family but your entire race.”
“Continue.”
“The Phoenix clan declared war on the Kitsune.”
I shocked. I couldn’t even think clearly for a couple of minutes. Thankfully when I could think I was somewhat calm. I activated my amulet.
“Give me specifics please.”
“You reacted better than I thought you would and currently it isn't a true war but the Phoenix clan revoked their peace treaty. Other than that I don’t really know much.”

“Do we have any allies?”
“Yeah, for beast allies you have all of the nature alliance and for the mortal allies you have the Elves and Dryads.
“What allies do the Phoenix clan have?”
“Fire Giants and Dwarves.”
“Why would the Dwarves want to support the Phoenix clan?”
“Because the Phoenix clan is offering them Eternal Flames.”
“Eternal Flames?”
“Once a Phoenix dies they turn into an egg and live anew but when they die they leave a little bit of flames that never die. The Eternal Flames also auto tune their temperature for forging and before you ask Dwarves value forging over their lives.”
“I at least know that much about Dwarves and have the Phoenix clan burned down any forests yet?”
“Actually about that the Phoenix clan won’t because the Luna clan said they would join the war if they do.”
“Luna clan?”
“You truly know nothing. The Luna clan is a combination of wolves and other canines.”
“If you inherit the throne will you help my clan?”
“Of course but I need the throne first.”
“When will you inherit it?”
“In 5 years.”
“Don’t you just have to conquer the throne since you're of age?”
Joseph had black lines forming on his forehead and said “I’m 16 right now.”
“WHAT!”
“I’m only 16.”
“You look like you’re 36.”
“To think that I was going to give you housing at the palace.”
“I have no idea what you are talking about you look like a young 16 year old.”
“I can’t hear you.”

A cataclysm occurred in the world, which rolled back its development for many centuries. The power in it returned to the church, because otherwise, as the "2nd coming", the event that destroyed the earth, cannot be called. A big war is brewing, humanity has already mastered all places suitable for life, and the rulers are trying to expand their possessions at the expense of others. Our hero, Marzio, lives in one of the free Italian towns. He is the bastard of a major feudal lord who made his name in the war. His mother, despite her righteous lifestyle, practices quackery. For which one day, on an unremarkable and ordinary day, she is sentenced to death. Seeing the burning of his own mother and losing faith in people, Marzio begins his journey. Thanks to the connections of his small family, he escapes from the city and, together with a trade caravan, moves to another city, where he plans to enter the academy and become stronger. Along the way, he contacts people who call themselves "diggers" - plunderers. So, he finds himself in the ruins of the old world, which was much more developed and finds more and more evidence of the terrible secret of the true cause of the fall of the world, which the church so zealously hides. But the second coming gave not only the suffering and wrath of God, but also monsters from mutated animals. In a fight with them, he falls into the eyes of the detachment of the sacred order, after which they, having estimated its potential, take it to themselves and, with their patronage, he enters the academy. At the academy, he meets new friends, and his origin is revealed there. Since he is the only male descendant, he can claim the title and possession of his father. Thanks to this, our hero receives a certain amount of attention from the opposite sex. After training, Marzio learns about the so-called knowers who are aware of the artifacts of the ancients and how things truly are. New prospects are opening up for him, but also new dangers. He becomes part of the squad that helped him. And using modern for us and futuristic for the Middle Ages, small arms are engaged in protecting the secrets of the church and persecuting a group calling themselves apostates, who want to reveal all the cards that will drive the world into a new branch of chaos and the fight against the regime. As cover, his order sided with minor rulers to fight the old-fashioned way and maintain the balance of power. More and more secrets are revealed to Marzio, and a serious intriguing game unfolds behind him, into which he is sucked in with more and more force. But the hero is the hero, in order to grow and cope with the twists and turns of fate, he stoically withstands all trials and even not knowing about the threats from the east and another continent continues to go forward to meet his fate, for the sake of freedom, revenge and struggle.

Thomas the Brawler
Thomas doesn't remember what his last name was, before it became Bluebrim, a name belonging to another universe. He's also pretty sure he wasn't this stupid before he arrived, but what can you do, when a day that was supposed to begin with an interview to set your life back on track instead begins in a universe that makes no sense, with rules you can't begin to understand? Maybe he should have paid more attention to the avatar creation screen ... Content warnings: All of them. Seriously. Expect lots of blue screens to begin with. Don't expect a power-leveling fantasy, in which the lone hero beats up all the bad guys, and gets a harem of women. There's just a guy who treats character creation like an annoying series of pop-up advertisements, and the story is basically the ramifications of that. The main character has to learn to take the world he's found himself in seriously, and he'll learn the way most of us do, by doing it wrong first. This is, insofar as it is successful, a dark comedy fantasy. Also a bit of horror, particularly but not exclusively body horror. I'm pretty sure I've earned those Content Warning tags, so, uh, yeah. This is practice. Hopefully things improve as I go, and figure out what I'm doing wrong, but I make no guarantees things will ever get better. I've already made mistakes, I'll make more, and I'm happy to notice them each time I make them. You don't improve unless you fail. (On the plus side, it probably won't get much worse.) Feel free to point out anything you think I'm doing wrong; I don't promise to change anything, particularly if it's a matter of taste, but I am looking to improve, and figuring out what I need to improve goes faster if I don't have to try to figure it out myself. I've updated the earlier chapters for formatting, in the hope that it would make everything easier to read on mobile devices. Hopefully things work slightly better now, but please let me know if there are any issues anywhere.
