《Queen of thieves》Chapter 9

Now that the runes were set in place Morgana turned her attention back to the actual manor and sighed. Although from a distance the building looked very impressive on the out, up close it was very easy to see the buildings flaws, such as the crumbling walls and near collapsing roof.
Entering the property Morgana noted that while the property was stable for the moment the foundations would not remain so for much longer. The easiest course of action would be to destroy the manor and then recreate it from scratch, the destroying part was easy and any number of runes could be used for that but unfortunately there was no such thing as a house building rune, however convenient such a thing might be.
Sighing Morgana walked up to the house and concentrating the magic in her fingertip, drew a rune in the air. Once she had drawn out the rune Morgana then launched it towards the old building, a light engulfed the manor and within seconds all remained was a huge patch of land with all the raw materials used to make the manor on it.
Now that the rune had activated Morgana sat down in exhaustion, the rune she had used was known as a time reversal rune and to say it was advanced was an understatement. The rune couldnt be used on living creatures but any other option was fine, the only other things that the time reversal rune couldnt be used on was objects that already had runes on reversal as the runes would cancel each other out.
Although Morgana had restored the materials back to their prime condition, she was still going to need help assembling the house, and for that she would need a significant amount of money. Although she still had over a quarter of her original funds left Morgans decided it was time to replenish her funds a bit.

Grinning evily Morgana headed towards the nobles district. Two hours later and Morgana had stolen jewellery and funds from most of the surrounding nobles houses, of course she'd not taken so much it that it would be noticed. Afterall if any of the nobles noticed and added runes to their security it would make it significantly harder to steal from them in future, of course she could still do it it would just take longer.
Although Morgana had only stolen a small portion of wealth from each house that amount had quickly added up to replenish the entirety of her original funds, smiling Morgana headed towards the craftsmen district. It was time to build a house.
And so it was that 2 days later that a brand new manor house had appeared in the slums, although there was no runes to build a house there was runes to speed up the workers, not that the workers noticed the subtle increse in working speed.
Morgana also had to create a temporary rune using their blood to allow them inside the property without dying, this temporary rune was merely drawn on and easy to wash off removing their acces to the manor once the building was over.
Now that the manor was fully built Morgana had added yet more security runes to the inside, she had also had the builders, for an extra cost, add a basement safe below the house. For the fun of it she had also let all the workers catch a glimpse of the money she put inside it as well as the ocean gem around her neck. She was intrigued to see how many corpses ended up on her lawn tonight.
Smiling evily Morgana decided it was about time she paid Malaki a visit, afterall although it was easy enough to break into the lower nobilitys houses that didn't even have rune protection, Aegis being the capital city was home to royalty and upper nobility.

Both of whom not only had wealth but important documents concerning the kingdom as a whole as well as the city, of course the funnest way to steal from such people was to go right under their noses, afterall the way to the parents was through their children and Morgana already had the pleasure of being in the good grades of fair Prince Arthur who was still probably unaware that she was the one who had stolen from him.
And even if he was aware Morgana was happy to take the time to persuade him otherwise. The evil grin once again emerged from her face as she strolled off in the direction of Malaki's house, whistling cheerfully as she went.

Braza the Architect - Magical Crafter, Builder, and Adventurer!
This is the story of an older man who lived a hard but full life, being reincarnated into a fantasy world as a human-lizard hybrid. The new world is violent, magic is real, a game-like development system crushes physics and natural law under its ambivalent thumb, and myth and legend don't just meet, they chase you down to eat you.Follow Braza as he tries to make a very different life for himself in a familiar but ultimately alien world. In this story the protaginist will not just be a muscle bound monster. He is not a proper hero, willing to sacrifice himself for the good of a stranger, but neither is he a maniacal villain. He is trying to survive, and he is trying to give himself and those he deems himself responsible for a seat at the table of the"goodly", the "civilized" races. He is trying to create a secure home for his people, to arrange beneficial trade agreements, explore ancient ruins, decipher ancient runes, push the boundaries of magic to create a better life for everyone around him, to learn about the history of the world and the multiverse, and ultimately attempt to become powerful enough to take on a being that even the gods themselves fear. This is my first story and it blends many different elements and styles. It's a bit darker than most of what I have read on Royal Road, but even with that, I hope you give it a try, and I hope you like it!

"How could you screw up the world this badly?" That's the question Billy the God finds himself asking when he looks upon his First World.

Billy is one of the students expected to get in, but the school evaluates all the worlds a God's made during their entire life. And Billy's first world is everything that the school abhors. Billy's only hope for getting in? He has to raise a team from his world, comprising of the best of the best. To steal the system of another world and use it to replace his own, dooming the other in the process. The team he's created from his world's inhabitants? A BloodThirsty Crusader with more orphan murdering than 7th circle demons. An Orc prodigy of blood magic who faints at the first bit of gore she sees. A drunk Warlock who's responsible for the reason why most wizards are dead. A tax evader Druid who got her hand's on the 9th Edition of Karl Marx's Communist Manifesto. And a Blind Dragon Born Ranger, Druid, Sorciesta with a gun.
