《Excursion Book 1, The Goblin Curse. First arc.》Chapter 19 Futile Resistance and Achievement Gained

Glenn ran faster, faster than he has ran in weeks. The bout he had with the Reeves brothers, and that ridiculous looking magician has taken up his time. He meandered around the buildings, keeping low to the shadows as he passed by a few guardsmen; he can’t afford to waste anymore of his time, toying with other humans for now.
He followed the path of destroyed buildings, smiling while thinking about the destruction that the great beast has done. He eventually found Dominus Bestia, lying on the ground, head fried and smoking. Luckily for Glenn, the guardsmen are busy tending to the wounded and doing a head count elsewhere.
Glenn crept up towards the body, and looked around. He smiled brighter as he breathed in the air of this fallen ancient creature, knowing that he didn’t have to strain himself to kill this beast. He even pondered if he has the energy or time to kill it off himself.
Glenn moved towards the beast’s obliterated head, and fetched out his rough cut onyx out from his pouch. He closed his eyes and muttered a few words in the ancient language. He pointed the gem towards the beast, and sensed the essence of Dominus Bestia’s soul and focused to beckon it into his gem. The process took a minute to do, because Dominus Bestia knew what Glenn was trying to do so he had no choice but to put up a fight.
Glenn, however have done this charade before. He cackled the entire time, Dominus Bestia had never before felt this vulnerable, since the Leviticus family sealed him.
“Welcome home, old one. Soon you will be fed as a great power source to some sort of… God… After that… Well heheh… You’ll soon find out my new found friend.” Glenn gloated as he tossed the gem up in the air and caught it with his other hand without even looking.

He hid the gem in his pouch, and reached around for another pouch and brandished a red orb.
“And for the big finale, this one will do all kinds of wonders that will bring much despair to the people in this town, for weeks… Heheh.” Glenn said as he hid it in the same pouch again.
He immediately bolted off, towards the north east of town, unfortunately, he may have to wait it out a bit, he spotted a few civilians and guardsmen moving around, looking for other survivors.
He felt irritated and weary, but the thought of his final act of chaos and destruction brought joy to him at this very moment. All he has to do is get the great Allan Bridge, do his final deed and then rendezvous with Karr once again. Then they will be off, to their original hideout and plot the next chaos that will come for their future gains. Glenn grinned as he waited.

A Suspicious Lack of Horses
World: The framework of reality. The rules which govern interaction. The dimensions within which existence takes place. Soul: Mind. The source of thought, of consciousness. The means by which reality is observed. Body: Form. The means by which one interacts with the World. The substance from which reality is formed. Spirit: Life. The connection between Soul and Body. The anchor to the World. What happens when these foundational forces are given human form? When they're confronted with the truths of human nature, of human frailty? When the evils of reality are thrown in their face and the question is asked: What are you going to do about it? Why did anyone ever think they'd need horses? I upload ~30k word chunks at the beginning of every month, rotating through each character in order. I have at least four extra chunks on my Patreon. I suggest setting your reading preferences to indent and 30 pt paragraph spacing for the best reading experience.

The Sleeping Immortal
It's my first time writing, I'm going to try a mix up of LitRPG and Wuxia. God killed me while I was sleeping, and now I have the power to become a God myself just by well... sleeping. Ironic isn't it? Let's say it came as a surprise when I, Fiend Yuki, got killed by God. God, not wanting me to die as easily next time, reincarnated me with OP sleeping powers. Before this, I was just your average bum living in my parent's basement, sleeping and doing general otaku things. Now I have to worry about getting killed by Gods, kinda came full circle didn't it? Or I could just sleep and worry about it later... Yeah, I'll just sleep... Sleep sounds good. Yeah, it was until I woke up and found out I've become a toothpick and personal claw sharper of the world's strongest dragon while I was sleeping... I don't like being awake...
