《The Lonely Wanderer》Chapter 8: Doppelganger
Advertisement
As Shenzi drifts, unconscious Shenzi enters the inner world of Tears Of Rose to his surprise as he enters. Shenzi sees a clone of himself. With 100 petals floating around the clone, forming the Descending Phoenix Formation and breaking apart. With a careful look, Shenzi finds to his surprise, the way the doppelganger forms and deforms the Descending Phoenix Formation is much more precise and less forced. Like how Shenzi first has to use 100 leaves and then inject them with his Sword Qi linking them together before he’s able to form his Descending Phoenix Formation The doppelganger notices Shenzis presence “Good evening I am the Sovereigns Intent created by you and Adria. In this world, my task is to train you. However I will warn you now, I do not understand the meaning of holding back my punches. If you die in this world, you die on the outside as well. Here’s your first warning. I am the same as you. All your thoughts, insight, techniques I can read one hundred percent and even mimic you.” Tonight's lesson begins with Battle Intuition I will summon four more doppelgangers using all kinds of foundation techniques along with myself. They will be attacking you like you’re their most hated enemy. The purpose of this is to get you to learn how to control your body’s and Spirit Force with one hundred percent efficiency. The biggest problem for you is. If you’re not able to do so, these doppelgangers will retaliate back with 2x the force of your hit. If you’re not careful and slip up using 100% without full control, you’ll end up as flat as a pancake of guts and blood. Without any chance to react four doppelgangers appear one equipped with a bow and arrow, another with dual swords, another with dual daggers, another with a shield, and of course the Sovereign Intent with the Descending Phoenix Formation Facing this kind of danger for the first time, Shenzis body tenses up with the feeling of the grim reaper floating around with his scythe on the string of Shenzis name. Shenzi compresses his Spirit Force forming his outline of a sword. Except for this time into two sets of swords, as Shenzi equips himself with one sword in each hand, he attacked simultaneously to his right and left blocking the dual wielding dagger and sword doppelgangers. Then somersaulting 180 degrees controlling one sword to clash with the arrow aiming for his heart. Shenzi lands and bursts off the ground in a blur racing to the guardian. With one sword revolving in the air to behead the guardian, with lightning-like reflexes, Shenzis blade is blocked as the dual wielding doppelgangers approach from left and right again slashing at Shenzi. Slashing out with his resummoned two swords deflecting both assassin and attacker at the same time, Shenzi materializes 100 swords with his Sword Qi guiding them like falling raindrops to counter the Descending Phoenix Formation. Upon contact with a slip of his control, the Descending Phoenix Formation detonates sending a wave of robust Sword Qi surging at Shenzi leaving hundreds of tiny cuts all over his body. Standing up again after his failure with blood dripping from his body with a feeling of weakness after depleting close to 30% of his energy. Shenzi once again summons his two swords, crossing them in an x formation in front of his chest. Shenzi pours his Sword Qi into his two swords. Lighting up in brilliant flames, Shenzi unleashes his compressed Sword Qi at the guardian doppelganger. With a bright blood red X forming on the guardian's chest, lighting up in flames the guardian gets burnt into ash. With blurring eye vision and gasping for whatever breath Shenzi can gain. At this moment his danger perception rings as all he has is barely enough time to duck, as two swords come chopping at his right and left pictorials. With two bloody red lines forming Shenzi stumbles over stabbing one sword in the ground to stabilize his body, and the other slicing out three times in a W formation slicing one arm off of the dual wielding doppelganger. The Sovereign Intent claps it hands “Not bad, not bad at all you little runt. You show promise but if this is the best you can do. You better go and dig yourself a grave over there.” With a snap of his fingers, the previous wounded and dead doppelganger comes back to life. With Shenzi’s life hanging on the line Adrias beautiful voice rings in his ears “Come on you dummy. Your time to die hasn’t arrived yet.” As Shenzi recalls the beautiful times shared with Adria Shenzi’s dormant Divine Body, Empyrean Retribution shows signs of awakening. With a blazing purple gold aura covering around Shenzis body like curtains. The aura bursts out stronger and slowly compresses. As the light diminishes, Shenzi’s upper body is covered by a chest plate. Forming designs of a Dragon’s head and eyes with a purple and gold aura shining in each eye. On his back, a cape engulfed entirely by Retribution Flames forms as it hangs down Shenzis body. “Congratulations, Empyrean Retribution has unlocked hosts Spirit Armour Dragon Chest Plate." “Congratulations, Empyrean Retribution has unlocked hosts Spirit Cape Burning World." With an initial breakthrough in Shenzis divine body. Shenzi feels reinvigorated as his body, meridians, and vessels begin absorbing Flame Element Spirit Force into Shenzi’s entire body like a homeless man who’s been deprived of food for five days. Shenzi smirks at the Sovereigns Intent “Come and show me your worse” Smiling back and nodding his head in approval the Sovereigns Intent forms the Dragon Chest plate and Burning World Cape. With both at their peak performance, the Sovereign Intent dismisses the supporting Doppelgangers, “It’s time to teach you what it truly means to be an emperor.”

Only Villains Do That
While waiting on an Akihabara train platform one day, ordinary high schooler Yoshi Shinonome was suddenly plucked from his normal life in Japan and whisked away by a beautiful goddess to Ephemera, a world of magic and adventure, to serve as her Hero and drive back the evil Dark Lord. This is not his story. Standing nearby at the moment Yoshi was isekai'd was a man named Seiji - a rude, cranky, misanthropic musician who was not at all pleased to find himself also snatched up and transported to Ephemera by the goddess's wicked sister, Virya. According to this self-proclaimed Goddess of Evil, the whole fantasy adventure thing was a game she and her sister played to stave off the boredom of immortality, and since the good goddess, Sanora, had picked her Hero...well, Virya needed a Dark Lord. A grown man with his own career and ambitions, Seiji has no interest in playing. Unfortunately for him, the call to adventure was not a request. Now, he must conquer Ephemera and defeat the Hero...or Virya promises to make him beg for the release of death before granting it. Playing along for his own survival, Seiji nonetheless is under no illusions who his true enemy is, and it's not the naive young would-be Hero from his own world. Placed in an impossible position, Seiji must make enough progress toward world domination to keep his sadistic patron goddess off his back, but not so much that he can't strike an accord with the forces of Good and convince the Hero Yoshi that it's the goddesses who are their mutual enemy. Forced to embrace Evil without being too evil, Seiji walks the razor's edge, building his forces and biding his time till he can get revenge on the goddesses and be free of them, his only certainty that he will not be getting out of this with his hands clean. A Dark Lord's gotta do what a Dark Lord's gotta do. Updates Tuesday and Friday. Most Patreon tiers get to read one chapter in advance of the public release!

The Summoned - Complete
In a world of magic, ruled by many warring races, the human kingdoms are being pushed to the brink of collapse. In a desperate bid to gain the strength to stand on an equal footing with the other nations, they perform a forbidden ritual to summon combat slaves from another dimension. Unluckily for them, Mors Letus, recently named by their world's God of Death, was one of them. **** Warning **** This is a re-release (The Summoned) of the first book I wrote in partnership with my brother (who later forced the story to be pulled (It was released on his account here)). I have started writing my own version of the story (BOM: The Summoned) and will continue to primarily invest in that, though, now I have permission to re-release this one, I plan finish this as I have the drafts and it was close to the end of the first book. Many characters/scenes and events match/Will match BOM: The Summoned, especially in future arc's (Past Flatner forest). If you don't like spoilers, don't want to get confused between the two stories or hate first attempts at writing (god awful grammar/sentence structure and storytelling), I would advise against reading.

The Eternal Vigil
The year is 2220, a time when governments and nation-states are slowly becoming a thing of the past. Instead, all prominent parts of human society are now organizing around the commands of three great Artificial Intelligences, owned and operated by the world's largest corporation. World peace has been achieved, and the very word 'politics' has disappeared from people's lips. Religion has largely disappeared, replaced in some parts by worshipping of the great AIs, but mostly substituted by a devotion to material goods and faith in the market. There is now a general consensus that the best form of government has been found. No, it is not democracy, nor is it autocracy or oligarchy. Instead, it is technocracy - rule by the learned, the intelligent, and the skilled. And who are more learned, intelligent, and skilled than the great AIs? Exactly, no one. The AIs will correct some market failures once in a while, but shall otherwise let the market be free. After all, the freer the market, the freer the people. Some may question how society advanced to this stage, but that is all they will do - question. Because they will not find answers, for history is no longer taught anywhere. After all, it is not a practical subject. One cannot get a decently paying job with a history degree. Society doesn't have any time for people to idly ponder about the past. No, this is a practical society of practical people: engineers, doctors, lawyers, developers, managers, bankers, soldiers, and the such. My name is Aiden Scivit and I used to be one such practical man: minding my own business, doing my job, with the faith that hard work will always be rewarded by the market...and that politics and philosophy were things thought of by idly people who leech off society. But this all changed, and here is my story, my history. Just because the stories of ages long past have been erased, does not mean that a brand new beginning cannot be created. The story is already finished but I still need to do some editing so a chapter should be released each day for a month. It is a bit political, as you can probably tell by the introduction, so there is that (it will low-key read like a philosophy dump 10% of the time, so really it's like Atlas Shrugged but liberal and worse lol). Also, I actually wrote this in grade 10 as part of my MYP Personal Project, and recently touched up on it for online publication. Finally, if you find the writing style passable and are interested in my other works, check out the one in the link below. It is a fantasy set in the Ancient Greek world, and is completed and uploaded in full: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/35099/the-oresteia-modernized
