Ocular Menace: Misadventures of a Man with many Eyes

Johnathan Reed had just finished celebrating his 18 birthday, when like any self-respecting novel protagonist, died to the hands of Truck-Kun. He laments in his last moments the fact he never made it past 24 hours of adulthood, and should have looked before crossing the road. Next thing he knows he's in a old medieval style house. After successfully running away from the house, and whatever problems might come from meeting people, he's in the middle of nowhere until he hears the classic *Ding* any gamer would be familiar with. The Art Is Not Mine. If you are the owner of the art and want it down. let me know and I'll oblige. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- --Do I have you interested? please do let me know of any feedback you have, as again, this is solely for my own enjoyment and to improve my literary skills. I'm the only person proofreading this, and the grammar is probably killing you, so just bear with me, because English was never my best subject Also my jokes could be unfunny, let me know. Also I will do my best for compelling characters, but again first time writing. so stuff like romance might flop and be underwhelming for people and is probably gonna be a side bit, not the main focus and later on.

To say time magic was unfair would be an understatement. The only downside was it seemed to take a lot of stamina to activate, and that would hopefully be changed when he unlocked more of it, he could look over his other skill trees, but he should probably solve the problems of the people and gain their respect and admiration, so he put it off.

"What issues are left to be resolved?"

"Your majesty, our eastern region is having a drought-"

"Alright, prepare a list of problems needed to be resolved for me by the time I'm back" He then teleports away. Everyone is left dumfounded, before they all scramble around to get a list.

After teleporting around for an hour or so, he finds a village, it has a lot of fields around it, however there full of withered crops. The village has a wall and people patrolling said wall, however they look dejected and a bit thin. Johnathan had decided to keep his multitude of powers away from prying eyes, so he would be using space magic to solve these issues when others were looking.

To start, he made a freshwater lake near his mountain, he then opened small portals in the sky to make it look like it was raining, after he finished his work there, he left and went north of the village. He repeated the processes 5 more times for north and south, and figured that was all the villages. He had made enough water to have it rain for around 2 days, so a flood shouldn't happen. After his rainmaking, he heads back.

When he arrives back, he sees a massive scroll of parchment in the hands of one of the men. Johnathan looks apprehensively at the massive scroll, he was coming to the realization that he probably wouldn't be getting any sleep tonight. Not that he needed it, but it was still felt nice and is a good way to relive mental fatigue and a great way to recover energy.

"Start with the problems that can be solved without me travelling the territory"

"To start your majesty, you must hold a meeting with the leaders of the other races to announce your are the new emperor. You must also give your tributes to the other leaders-"

"Wait, I have to give them something?" Johnathan is clearly shocked, but he then remembers that the humans were probably getting pushed around by literally any other intelligent race due to being extremely weak. "Not happening, but they can come over and complain if they want. Next!"

"We have server issues with the underworld, and they will probably try to assassinate you your majesty!" One of them exclaims.

"Not getting any sleep tonight anyways, when they come ill interrogate them and deal with them myself."

"Your majesty. the nobles are quarreling over the loss of one of their young masters. One lost a limb while fighting the other houses young master in an official duel, and they are trying to sabotage the other."

"Tell the house that lost an arm to stop, it was official, if I see that they're still doing it after I told them to stop, punish them, just make sure to announce a punishment that's enough to dissuade them."

"Your majesty, you must arrange a party with all the nobles to announce your rise and you must have announce someone as empress"

It was time.
