《The New World Rising : How to Build a Dungeon Kingdom》Chapter 13 - Proof of the Dungeon Master
Advertisement
The goblin chief was looking in disbelief at the 10 new goblins that appeared out of thin air. In fact, these 10 goblins looked no different from outside to the naked eye to any of the goblins of his own tribe or perhaps to any goblin chief has ever seen in his entire goblin life. It was indeed a better idea to not take these goblins who did not believe neither the power nor the existence of a dungeon master to my dungeon but rather to demonstrate my abilities in front of their eyes. Plus, by doing this I was also able to expand my dungeon.
In fact, it was not only the goblin chief that was looking at the scene as if I casted some forgotten magic, but the entire village of goblins that surrounded us. To be fair though, summoning sending creatures was probably a forgotten magic since no dungeon master was born in the last 70 years according to the best of Lilith’s knowledge. Unless of course, other races are able to use the summoning magic to someone other sentient creatures. That, however, is not a question of today.
Besides all the goblins, Lilith’s looks were also not quite normal. Rather, she looked at me as if she was trying to ask me a question. What could it be? I tried to ask myself. It did not take me too long to realize what she was trying to indicate with her eyes. I did in fact ask her whether dungeons could be expanded to above ground. To the outer world. And here I was, next to her. Couple hours after that question expanding my dungeon recklessly into a territory which is prone to attacks from the humanoid other races of the outer world. Yet I had more questions to ask her about this. What would happen if an army of humans actually invaded this territory but not enter the dungeon itself? Would it have a negative effect on the dungeon or me? Would it limit my powers as a dungeon master? What day even be able to understand that this part of my dungeon is in fact a part of my dungeon? From our reactions and her answer, I was able to deduce at least the fact that she thinks it is very, very, very rare for a dungeon to expand to above ground. That is, if there has been a dungeon before which has done so. So I guess this is what you call innovative.

“Just who are you?”
“I told you, I am a dungeon master.”
“Dungeon master is also able to do something like this? This is much more different than just uniting different races of monsters to build the Kingdom. You can summon Goblin kin.”
“I can also summon monsters of different races.”
Surely the skill of mine is well respected by the monsters who have seen it for the first time. It is just that I hope disrespect translates into the willingness to work together and cooperate for the sake of my Kingdom. The New World must rise. No, I should correct myself. The New World will rise. And if it is with the power of these goblins that it could rise just a little higher, then I should give mu utmost effort here and now to facilitate a better cooperation.
“How can you prove that you will not be a threat to our village in the future?”
“I have no proof for that. However, I have proof that I can summon many more monsters right here and right now and, despite this, I have come to you at peace. This clarifies my objectives for you.”
“I see. You indeed seem to be powerful. Powerful enough for us to not be able to comprehend your powers fully. The skill you have just shown us is beyond our understanding of this world. If I may. Can these goblins speak?”
“Of course, they are goblins.”
I shoot a glance at one of the goblins I summon, as if I demand him to show the Goblin chief that he is in fact capable of speaking. For a brief moment, however, I felt like I'm a circus master, putting on a show for a village of goblins. If it will help us, however, I'm OK with it for the time being.

The Arcanist Seer
An eye of which sees everything beyond the skies and heavens saw an embodying fate with reek of blood and greed. He who sees the future and yet is restrained by his own shackles of his destiny. An eye that serves a purpose but nothing in exchange for his freedom. Will he remain as a tool of his adversary or escape from his own shackles of fate? This is a story of two old men trying to free from the shackle of their destiny set in a future only to await their impending doom. This is a story of a dead god, and of a storyteller, trying to break from the bonds of the past. And as their stories go, one of them will face the events that unfold in their distant past, as the other one will unveil its mystery predicted by its future. Is it a mistake to challenge fate, after all? *** The world-building is set upon on the universal scale, with dungeon and old-style fantasy. It has a progression that follows with the consistency of a dungeon setting, although it's not what you call a dungeon, but a function of a crystal. There's a lot to take in this novel, but that's all within my intention. I have always enjoyed challenging conventional ideas. The cover is not mine, it's just temporary.

Whispers of Long Lost Voices
When all hope is gone, the crew of Hestia’s Hearth will make their own.What You Can Expect: * A Dark Yet Hopeful Universe* Kick Ass Found Families* Hero Moms* Dancers, Musicians and Space Shanties * Disabled MCs* Space Nazis Getting Punched in the Face (Sometimes Literally) * Folks who actually deal with trauma and griefThe Known Universe has been at peace for almost 100 years, but for most of Brenn’s life, trapped on an Earth controlled by the genetically superior Aesir Empire, it hasn’t felt like it. The Aesir took her peace, they took her parents, and then they took her wife. Three years after her wife’s murder, she’s found a new life light years away from Earth. A happy one, most days, with a best friend and captain who understands her, and a shared mission to undo some of the damage the Aesir have done to the Universe and offer relief to anyone who needs it. But the past has a way of rising again. A surprise rescue mission brings Brenn face to face with her wife; delirious, ill, and scarred from the bullets Brenn thought had killed her, but very much alive with a newborn at her breast. A newborn whose very existence could mean intergalactic war. Now Brenn must balance her wife’s delicate mental health, new motherhood, and her own complicated feelings while working with her Captain and their odd bunch of friends and allies to protect her tiny family from a small, but influential group within the Aesir government who will stop at nothing to take back Brenn’s wife and child. All the while, there are whispers of a greater and more ancient power coming to life. A power Brenn’s wife knows more about than she wants to let on. It’s a good thing Brenn is used to fighting. CW: Contains mildly graphic scenes of violence/death, topics of unwanted pregnancy/abortion, scientific experimentation on sapient beings, depression/suicide, grief, and trauma. The tone of this fiction is often dark and distinctly dystopian in lighter shades of Margaret Atwood, though where there is darkness there is always hope and light. On Hiatus Until September When the School Year Begins and Mom This story takes a considerable amount of time and mental energy to complete. I thought I had enough backlog and time to post it as a serial while COVID kept my child home from school, but it turns out while I can quickly write other pieces, I cannot produce the quality I need with this one at an acceptable rate. We'll resume in September when my days are much freer. Thank you for your patience and stay tuned for a different storytelling romp more suited for a serial platform in the meantime.
