In the galaxy Naletar the planet Azen Primus lives creatures big and small, human and monster alike, where magic and science came together. Everything on the surface is fine, but behind the scenes someone is trying to destroy the world, so to combat this six hero's were made either summoned, or created to stop this force, but are they ready to fight on a bigger scale than anyone can imagine.
The novel has a lot of ideas taken from dungeons and dragons, so if you see any monsters, or abilities that sound familiar, it's probably because that's where i got them.

"I'm sorry... I'm sorry..." Rob mumbled while running away in random directions, "I'm sorry Lenny, I just did what I had to..."
When the monster had just killed Trevor, it was standing in between Rob and Lenny, and the monster, whom none of them had seen or heard of before, was eyeing for Rob next.
At that moment, Rob just wanted to save his butt, and no one else. So he grabbed a fairly big rock from the ground and threw it at Lenny's head. Lenny, who was fixated at the monster, couldn't fight the rock and fell on the ground with a thud. The blood gushed out of his wound on his head and attracted the monster. The monster ignored Rob and jumped onto a defenceless Lenny. What happened next was nothing less than a scene from a horror movie.
Lenny's death wasn't painless or quick like Trevor's. The monster took his time to kill him. It first tore his legs apart from his body, because Lenny had been desperately kicking the 12 feet tall humanoid monster, in a last effort to save himself, but this annoyed the monster even more, but this also the monster want to 'play' more with Lenny. With his razor-sharp nails, It ripped through his stomach and started eating his intestines like instant noodles... all this time Lenny was still alive, barely, but alive. The monster then pushed the nails through Lenny's eyes, at this point, Lenny didn't even have the energy to scream or resist. He just wanted to die, so he laid there, allowing the monster to do whatever it wanted until he finally died.
Rob didn't stay there and watch it all happen but kept running tirelessly. He did not dare to stop. He was afraid that the monster would catch up to him and do what it did to Lenny and Trevor, or maybe do something even worse. Even thinking about it made him run even faster.
He ran for what seemed like hours, but there was no end to the forest because clueless to him, he had been running in circles. The monster has already caught up to him and was sitting on a tree branch, Lenny's corpse still on its shoulders. It was amused to see the human's reaction and decided to have more fun.
The monster threw the gutless corpse of Lenny in front Rob, who stumbled over Lenny's body... his eyeless face gazing through his soul, almost cursing at him for doing what he did to him.
Right as he was about to get up and run, something grabbed his legs and lifted him off the ground. The monster turned him upside down and... smiled to Rob's face, it was no ordinary smile... it was filled with murderous intent.
Rob's fears overwhelmed him and he ended up wetting himself. This pleased the monster even more and he started laughing hysterically while touching his wet crotch, his ear-piercing laughter echoed through the forest.
Monster's laughter helped Rob regain his senses. He knew it was a do or die scenario for him right now, adrenaline once again rushed through his body, he wasn't going to go down like Trevor or Lenny, not without a fight. He gathered whatever strength he had left in his body and used the only magic spell he knew, [Fireball].
As the monster opened its mouth, Rob barraged him with fireball after fireball, it didn't do much damage but it temporarily blinded the monster and he dropped Rob on the ground.
Rob ran away once again, and this time he was successful in getting out of the forest, where he found a forest ranger and told him everything. The ranger knew the situation was dangerous and immediately contacted the police who then informed the Black Family about it.
****
A couple of hours later, inside the forest.
Arnold, Nathan, Nicole and Nina were examining the corpses of the two victims who were killed by an unknown monster.
One of the corpses was lacking its head, but they didn't have to waste their time looking for it, because it was already scattered around them. It looked like his death was relatively quick and painless in comparison to the other corpse which was mutilated beyond recognition.
His body laid there like a ghoulish mannequin, the oesophagus and arteries sticking out like so much corrugated and rubber tubing, even his eyes were gouged out. It looked as if a special effects team had worked overtime for some Friday the thirteenth movie set, but that smell... That smell could only come from the recently slaughtered animal. In this case, the animal was a human and his corpses was still warm, the blood had started thickening but not yet dried. Some cases took a while to decide if foul play was involved, but this was murder all the way. A murder committed by a monster of unknown species.
"I've never seen anything like this..." Nicole mumbled, "It almost as if the monster wasn't interested in eating them but was rather-"
"Playing with them." Arnold squatted down to closely inspect their wounds, "Is the survivor ready to talk yet?"
"No. He's still in the trauma centre." Nina replied, "But from what he told to the ranger, we can conclude that the monster is working alone."
"I don't like this..." Arnold mumbled, "A couple of years ago, I'd have been happy to know if a single monster came out of a dungeon outbreak, but after what I witnessed earlier in the wastelands, it only worries me more."
"So you're saying that the monster killed his kind inside the dungeon, to evolve?" Nathan asked Arnold, while his men were looking out for the monster.
"That's what happened, most probably. Otherwise, it wouldn't make much sense if a single monster caused an outbreak." Arnold explained to the others while analysing Lenny's corpse, "This guy's abdomen was cut in one swoop, so I think that the monster has got pretty sharp claws or nails or something along the lines. Looking at how deep the wound is we have to be wary about his strength as well... how far has your group managed to search through the forest?"
Deacon immediately ran through the list of places that could've been perfect hiding places for the monster, checking off the ones they had already searched, "We might not be able to look through the entire forest tonight. But we'll finish up the search till the day after tomorrow."
As Arnold gazed around the forest, the ineffectiveness of Nathan's people bothered him a bit, but he wasn't in the position to correct them, even though Nathan and the others knew him, he was still just a 'guest' there. Still, he needed to point it out to Nathan without causing unnecessary drama.
"That's too long. Who knows what that monster would do in the next two days. Also, your men would be in danger if they end up encountering the monster, because the way I see it, the monster is already at least S ranked." Arnold then turned towards Nathan, "Do you mind, if I take care of this?"
"What are you planning to do?" Nathan asked him, the time wasn't the same as before, Nathan couldn't have Arnold running around doing senseless things anymore.
"I'll just speed up the search a bit. Tell your men to retreat, I'll find the monster for you." Arnold smiled, even Nathan knew the limitations of his soldiers so he agreed in the end. But someone wasn't happy about it.
"What could a single man possibly do that our forces can't?" Deacon remarked as he handed the list of places over to Arnold.
Nathan thought Arnold would be pissed, but instead, he was smiling, "Excuse me, but do you know anything about me?"
"I don't." Deacon confidently replied.
"Then I'll suggest you start taking notes because you're about to." Arnold smiled got wider as a portal opened up in front of the others.
Soon Arnold's summons started pouring out of the portal. One after another, his undead summons, automatons, and lava hounds all came out of the portal. Deacon's overconfident mouth was wide open, he immediately realised his mistake in his remark.
'He's not a single man... what's the point of even staying here anymore? This guy can do everything by himself.'
Arnold didn't summon everyone out, yet the people around him were overwhelmed, of course, this didn't include Nathan, Nina it Nicole for that matter as they already knew about his abilities.
Arnold only summoned the ones who were capable of tracing a target as soon as possible, still, the number of his summons was way over 150. Once everyone was out of the portal, Talos walked out of the crowd, towards his master.
"Your command, master?" He asked.
Arnold tossed the list of places towards him, "Search these places and look for the monster who killed these men. Cerberus and the hounds would lead the search and would go through the forest in its entirety as they are the best at tracking something down, while you along with the automatons and the undead would look for the monsters strictly at the locations I've specified."
"Consider it done." Talos replied, "What shall we do upon contact with the beast?"
"Just report back and do not engage. I want to see that beast with my own eyes." Arnold replied to the automaton.
"Yes, master."
Talos divided his troops into eight groups, each of the group was tasked with searching at a specific location, while Cerberus and the other hounds sniffed around the corpses to get a whiff of the monster's scent.
After Talos gave them their instruction his group immediately departed to search for the monster, while Cerberus and his fellow hounds got the monster's scent and began following the scent.
"What now?" Nina asked Arnold once the summons had disappeared from their sights.
"Now, the hunt begins."


Do read my new novel **The Rise Of A Tribal Deadbeat**. 
It would mean a lot to me if you could read it and give your valuable review. Thanks in advance. 

****
The novel follows the story of Arnold, a porter, who accompanies warriors and superhumans inside dangerous dungeons, which are distinguished by their colours. The porters were always mistreated by the modern human civilization and even though their job was riskier than that of warriors and superhumans, their existence was never appreciated nor were they paid well.

No one knows why these dungeons started to appear all over the world. The only thing they know was the dangers that would find their way into the world if they didn't kill the monsters. But only a selected few cared about the calamity because for the rest it was all about earning money and gaining power. 

But nothing in this new world is constant and everything keeps changing, and this time the change would find its way towards an ordinary Porter.

After stealing a scroll from the dungeon, he ran off to his home. The scroll gave him powers no one could've imagined to gain. But he wasn't alone. 9 other humans had been granted similar powers... powers of the Gods! 

What would Arnold do with his newfound powers? Will he kill the other 8 Paladins and rule over the world which had oppressed him for years? Or will he rise against the Gods and make them repent for their crimes? 

Can the strength lent by the Gods be sufficient to deal with them once and for all? Would he be able to defeat his creator? Or will he join the Gods instead? 

Too many questions, too little time. The decisions he would make could be the end of humanity Or would an ordinary Porter, become he world's only hope? 

Follow me on the journey to the power of this ordinary Porter as he becomes the Savior or the Devil.

After we defeated the poison slime, our journey progressed relatively safe.

As usual, I was the one in charge of our meal.

Everyone complimented my food and they had this blissful face whilst eating my cooking.

I felt happy looking at them eating my food wholeheartedly like that.

Ah right, on our way here we encountered a wild hog monster.

They said the wild hog's meat was very tasty and juicy, it was the perfect ingredient for a steak.

Although I was hesitant at first since I didn't think we can consume monster's meat but they said it was normal to eat it.

Some meat on the market also came from the monster so apparently I might've been eating monster meat without me noticing.

Before we decided to form a party together, I was actually prepared to complete the subjugation quest all by myself by standing guard as support magician in the camp so at first I thought that the preparation that I've done might be a little bit too excessive for solo adventurer.

You know, with that huge tent that Malik-san gave me and all the food that I've prepared beforehand for both me and Chris-san..

But now I was glad since I could provide meals for my party.

Oh and the last thing.

We had a little dispute when we were about to sleep inside the tent.

Everyone was fussing over the right to sleep beside me but eventually we had found a peaceful solution through rock,paper, scissor competition.

The winners will be given the rights to sleep beside me.

The sight of the three of them playing rock, paper and scissor so seriously was both funny and scary.

As for barriers, since there was four of us casting barriers, the barriers were strong enough to last until morning came but there were rare case where a monster came close to our camp.

Well, the three of them easily finished the approaching monster though.

———————————————–

Today was the third day of our subjugation quest.

We've defeated quite a variety of monsters, from insect, animal, and event plant type monster but we've never met any humanoid monster.

I wonder if there were any humanoid monsters like succubus or dracula?

"Umm.. Is there any humanoid monster in Alsar?"

"Humanoid?~ Oooh~ You mean like demon kind?~"

"Demon?"

"Yup~ Demon is a high ranking monster but not only that they look like human, they also live like one. Rather than monster, they're more like another kind of beastman. They also have a very long lifespan~"

"That's right, the current demon king is over 300 years old. We live in perfect harmony, some demon kind also lives in human settlement. The current demon king is also my grandfather's godparent."

Eh?

Apparently demon and human had a good relationship to the extent a demon king could become a godparent of a human king.

Even though Alsar was like a world from fantasy game but there were some things fundamentally different here.

"Do they look like an elf or beastman too?"

"Nah, they have this.. Vertical pupil so they look kinda different than beastman or elf. Have you never seen one in Pedrell, Ren?"

"No, I don't think I've seen one in Pedrell.."

So their eyes looked like a cat or reptile then.

If I seen something like that on the street, I was sure I would've noticed one right away so I think there was not any demon in Pedrell.

"Pedrell and Ordeal, the city where demon lives are in the opposite direction. It's quite a distance and they also rarely leave their own territory so it's no wonder you've never seen one in Pedrell, Ren-kun."

I see, it couldn't be helped then.

Now, I wonder how was the relationship between monster and demon kind?

"Since demon kind is a high ranking monster.. How's the relationship between monster and demon kind then?"

"Well, although monster is a distant relatives of demon kind, they don't like it when we compare the two of them together. The demon prefer to live in peace and somehow there are not much monsters in the place demond kind lives. Maybe the monster are afraid of demon kind? Since they're higher in ranking after all. But in Alsar, it is a common sense to exterminate a monster when one appeared. If I have to say, I think Alsar is the safest country in this whole world."

Ah, I guess the demon didn't live in the way that I imagined at first.

I wanted to travel to their city if possible..

Even though fundamentally they were a monster, they were a lot closer to humankind after all.

————————————————–

Today was the last day of the subjugation quest.

We've defeated plenty of monsters and we've also reached the end of the prairie.

If we kept on moving forward, we will reach the forest.

"The other party hasn't reached this place yet huh, how about if we go and patrol this place for a bit?"

"Yeah, we've defeated a lot of monster already. Let's return back to the camp in the afternoon."

Sig-san and Fer-san discussed our next plan.

In front of me, there was this yellow veil that went from one ends to the other.

When I tried to touch it, I felt like there was some sort of wall blocking it around 1cm thick.

"Ah, don't put too much force when you touch it, Ren-kun. If you do, the barrier will activate and knock you back."

"Right, right. We don't want you to get hurt now, right?~"

"Ah,yes. I'm sorry.."

I kept on trying to touch it without thinking much, I had to be more careful from now on.

Since the barrier was used to keep the monster contained, of course it will cause damage when something tried to force through it.

"Ren-kun, can you sense any monster nearby?"

"Umm, no. I don't sense any monster within 500 meters."

In this party, my 'Search' skill had the widest range so I was the one in charge for look out for any monster nearby.

Also I had really big magical power since I could kept on using 'Search' from early morning until dusk.

Apparently normal people could only kept on using 'Search' for a couple hours at most.

So for normal parties, they will need to take turn using 'Search' during the quest.

In Luce, my role as support magician was to cast support magic for the other three.

They will need to preserve their magic power for battle so I proposed myself to become the one in charge of using 'Search' since I had a lot of magic power anyway.

"Hm.. What should we do? We can't advance even further anymore.." Fer-san murmured.

"Then how about if we patrolled alongside the barrier instead?~" Chris-san suggested.

The three of them started to discuss our next plan, they really had a good relationship.

They could came up with a good plan together without any unnecessary arguing.

"Well how about if we start patrolling by going to the left? After we patroll for a bit, let's have a lunch break and then we can go back to the camp. What are we going to do when we get back though?" I asked.

"Hmm~ We will need to gather up our guild cards and give it to the guild staff to receive our payment. I don't know whether Ren-chan knows it or not but they will transfer the payment straight into our guild card~"

Oooh I see.

How convenient, so we didn't have to bring cash everywhere since the guild cards could work like our debit card in Earth.

"After that we need to go sell our materials somewhere else since there's no adventurer guild in Baunov." Sig-san added.

"I see.. We need to wait until we find a proper adventurer guild then.."

There was no adventurer guild in Baunov after all so we need to hold on our materials for a little while until we found any adventurer guild.

Adventurer guild also very convenient~

They worked as a bank, managed available request, managed the adventurers and they also distributed various kind of materials.

I heard they also took the responsibility to educate any rogue adventurer.

For sure, they were a fundamental part of this world.

"We haven't encountered any monster so far, weird.. Have we eradicated all the monster near the vicinity?"

"Maybe? It's been 4 hours but we haven't find any.. I don't sense anything from 'Search' either.."

Since last night, we hadn't encountered any monster yet.

Maybe we've exterminated all the monsters?

—————————————————————–

After 2 hours more of walking and still, no monster in the vicinity yet.

"Hmmm~ No monster at all~ Maybe we were too worked up and accidentally finished all the monster?"

"Who knows? How about if we return back now? It's a little bit earlier than planned but we cannot find any monster anyway."

"Let's do that, I'm sure Ren-kun must be tired from subjugating for a whole week too."

"Yeah, Ren we will be counting on you to return back then."

We couldn't find any monsters so everyone decided to head back early and get some rest.

Umm, to return I need to use this bracelet..

"Well then, let's return back. [Party Return]."

I chanted the spell and suddenly I felt a distortion on the space and all four of us disappeared from our spot.

One day when I, Himukai Ren(21) woke up I was suddenly transferred into different world “Alsar” where monsters and elves actually exists! Homosexuality marriage is considered normal and what’s more they actually can have a child together?! What?!

This is a story of how I found myself entangled in this world!

Kyongsu carefully checked the conditions of the village players and distributed the items to the right places. 
He said, "We have supplied them with new equipment items. I'm sure they have become much stronger than before."
They were leveling up in real-time, but the speed of their level-up was gradually slowing. It meant the time came for them to change the hunting ground.
"Then, we are going to start attacking the second floor from now on. After each group makes a couple of rounds once more, all of our troops will go up to the boss room."
When Sungwoo said that, the players' faces turned pale then hardened.
"Let's start over."
Their hellish training continued.
At that time, the "Taebaek Investigation Team" of the Wide Area Surveillance Team of the Liberation Guild was searching all over Mt. Taebaek, focusing their search around Mt. Seorak. As they promised the Necromancer,  they were searching for the missing person named  Jisu. 
At first, they planned to fly a magic drone to scan the mountains for her at a glance. No matter how big and wide the mountains were, they could check it out quickly by looking down from the sky,
But things didn't work out as they wished. 
-'Lower magic' is blocked by an 'unknown power'.
They could not know the exact cause, but it was certain that something strange was happening in the deep mountains where humans had never trodden. 
"We can't help it. We have to bring more guys to search for her deep into the mountains."
In the end, they had no choice but to do some legwork. 
But the mountains were too wide and steep. Besides, there were dreadful monsters under the control of the "King of the Great Mountain" in the deep mountains.
"Ugh, shit…I now know why the Struggle Guild gave up and decided to join hands with other camps. Yeah, they were not crazy guys.  They are very rational."
"You're right. All the monsters here are very weird. It looks like each of them is a boss monster."
The Struggle Guild had been a powerful force, but they could not beat the King of the Great Mountain. In the end, they had to leave Mt. Taebek. 
Even though the Wide Area Surveillance team's intelligence agents, who specialized in concealment and stealth, focused only on the search for Jisu while avoiding the monsters, they still faced several dangerous moments. For example, all five members of the "2nd Search Team " were annihilated during the operation, which showed how powerful the monsters were.
These monsters were fundamentally different from the monsters of before who tried to beat back their opponents by outnumbering them. Most of the monsters here had their skills, and some of them cast powerful magic.
Also, they moved intelligently when they aimed for their prey, so once they started to chase, it was best to widen the distance between them and hide in a safe area.
If that happened, it meant their search efforts failed. 
"Damn it! Surviving alone in a place like this? Is that possible? Don't you think this is futile?"
It was natural they felt skeptical about their search efforts in such a situation. 
"Haven't you seen that woman fighting? She is not a human. Who knows? She might be already controlling this area."
"But this place is too dangerous. It's not a matter of a temporary win, but she has to stay and hold out here in this place teeming with the monsters. She is in a different situation where we only search during the day and escape into the safe zone."
"Oh, you're right."
When they thought as far as that, they began to feel anxious.
"What would the Necromancer say if you found her body and give it to him?"
"..."
"It's scary even to hear that."
They searched for her for long hours, but they could not find any traces. 
So, the search team began to think about giving up the search effort and withdrawing. 
And when they made the last search effort, one of its members shouted.
"I've found evidence of her! It's her footsteps!"
Jisoo proved she survived on this hellish mountain.

***
At the search camp installed at the Osaek Bus Terminal in the valley of Mt. Taebek,
the leader of the 1st Search Team reported, "We found her traces at an elevation of 980 meters on the northwest ridge."
The head of the search team,  who was only sighing while looking at the map all day long, opened his eyes wide and corrected his posture. 
When he nodded, the team leader continued, "We found a large number of monster corpses, but they seemed to have clashed with an extraordinarily strong man. I think it's the woman we have been searching for. And we have a witness who can decisively testify about her whereabouts."
"Witness?"
The only thing they could get from the monsters' corpses was sword wounds, but it was a different story if they found a witness. The witness might have had a conversation with Jisu.
"The witnesses are an old man and his granddaughters living in the mountains. It looks like they were with the missing person briefly."
"That means they are not together now, right?"
"Nope."
"Damn it! So? Did he hear anything? Huh?"
When the search leader demanded,  the team leader nodded.
"According to the old man, the woman must have received some kind of quest. And the quest seems to be related to the "King of the Great Mountain", so I think she might have followed the path of the quest."
"No way! It's hard to believe she was chasing the monster king…"
Wasn't it the quest that even the Struggle Guild, composed of hundreds of men, gave up? No matter how skillful she was in wielding the sword, she couldn't deal with the monster king. 
"Oh, there is something I can't understand."
"What the heck is that?"
"According to the old man's granddaughter, the woman murmured something like, 'The King of the Great Mountain had the last item of the King of Shadow', but I don't know what she was talking about."
The search leader frowned and said. "What the heck is the King of Shadow?  Are there two kings here?"
"Well, I have no idea. There is no mention of that in our intelligence report. I've never heard it."
The King of Shadow was new to them. 
"If a woman is chasing the King of the Great Mountain, it is unreasonable for us to search for her further. We are not here for a suicide mission, right?"
But the search camp leader didn't believe she went after the monster king alone. 
If so, where did she go?

It is very important to prepare for a war and there are many ways of preparing for it. 
Generally speaking, they can beef up power through training and stockpiling like the World Tree camp. On the other hand, they can inflict damage on the hostile forces through operation and intelligence. By damaging the opponent's firepower, they can widen the power gap.
This method is quite difficult, but it is excellent in terms of cost-saving. That's why this method requires those  'agents' who are thoroughly trained.
"Can I ask you for directions?"
Sangnok-gu in Ansan City was once a busy area, but after the world turned into a game, it was dreadful to meet somebody in this barren city, like this man in black who asked for directions.
"..."
Seungtae, the man who was asked for directions, was embarrassed, but he did not let down his guard. Of course, he was not that nervous at the moment because he encountered only two people on the street.
"Hey Seungtae, what's going on?"
Seungtae looked back as if he was dumbfounded. There were three trucks pulled over on the street, and  26 were on the bus. They were staring at the two men sternly who blocked their way.
Since they fIew a magic drone just in preparation for an unknown ambush, they judged they could win easily if an armed conflict occurred.
"Well, I don't know. They seem to be lost," Seungtae said. 
"Because we are busy, tell them to call 112. The police will show them the directions."
They burst into laughter at that. 
"Wait a minute."
Emboldened by his colleagues' backing, Seungtae openly expressed displeasure.
"Directions? Which direction are you talking about?"
"Can I go to Suwon if I walk in this direction?"
"Oh, my God…"
Seungtae slowly lifted his finger and pointed to the green sign on the roadside.
The sign showed the distances to nearby metropolitan cities such as Seoul and Suwon. 
In other words, the man didn't have to ask Seungtae about the directions.
"..."
The man's eyes slowly followed Seungtae's fingers, and soon stopped at the sign.
However, there was no change in his facial expression. Even his pupils didn't move as if he didn't know how to read.
He opened his mouth again.
"So, you mean Suwon is in this direction?"

It was just one of those ordinary college class sessions when all of a sudden, texts and quest cards started popping up in the air.
While everybody is flustered by the strange situation, all the lights go dark and the lecture room is engulfed in pitch darkness. Panicked, everybody is afraid of reaching out and taking the quest cards, but not the main character, Seong-woo: He instinctively realizes that he has to pick a card to survive, and he chooses to become a necromancer.
Soon after, a tutorial quest appears, and the entire school turns chaotic. Suddenly, goblins pop out everywhere and start slaughtering people. Survivors find it hard to adjust themselves to all the sudden changes, but Seong-woo overpowers one of the goblins by using his necromancy skill and starts to complete the quest given to him.
Seong-woo continues to grow his power and so does a number of his followers. He is surrounded by the forces of death that vow loyalty to him, as well as talented followers and trustful colleagues, but he is challenged by numerous villains in addition to a system that threatens to degenerate all of humanity.
In a world that is facing a change that it has never experienced before, a necromancer destroys everything with his committed forces!

Lebwin grabbed onto Almathea as she fell to the ground. Turning to his wife, he spoke in a loud whisper, "You shall take her to the back of the stables. There is a donkey-drawn cart prepared to wait there. Do your best to stay hidden."
Maore grabbed her daughter and carried her on her back. The shouts that previously seemed distant were moving closer and closer to the door. Maore bowed at the waist, "As you wish, my lord. I shall return."
With one sword in her hand, and the other hand supporting Almathea so that she wouldn't fall, Maore walked up to the desk that Lebwin used.
She pressed one of the buttons that was next to a pen holder. The desk rumbled as it pushed itself to the side, revealing a tunnel that was big enough to fit them both. She took a few steps down the stairs and when only her head was visible, she turned to the two people still in the room, "Stay alive."
Lebwin glanced at her before nodding. "You as well." before he pressed the button once more and the tunnel began to close.
After the two females of the house had left, he took his place behind the oak table.
Fazian followed in his footsteps and stood beside him.
Lebwin blew a stray hair out of his face and began sorting through some papers, the gun he had taken out of the drawers sat still on his lap.
"If you and her ladyship had not gone to visit her during the day, no one would have discovered..."
Fazian bowed his head, "I know my lord. I am ready to take any punishment."
As if he was not listening, Lebwin continued to sort through papers.
They had only stayed in that position for a few minutes before the door was forced open.
People moved into the small office one by one. Some were carrying rakes in their hands, others were carrying fire torches and others normal torches.
The leader of the group moved forward. He was a stocky man with dark skin and wiry hair. All who knew him knew he had always coveted the position of first lord and had had the idea of becoming the new Lord of the town over and over. He utterly detested the Bastete family and wished for their demise.
Who would have thought he would catch the Bastete family hiding such a large secret.
He snickered and sneered at the man seated behind the desk as if he was unaware of the trouble brewing.
All he had to do was ask those in the room to do a thorough search of the mansion. They would surely find the unknown child and bring it forth.
Lebwin, in line with his character, pushed his head up and looked forward quite lazily, "Kimani Verishe, what is the meaning of this. Breaking into this lord's house in the middle of the night. Have you no shame."
As if he had already won, the one called Kimani raised his head and puffed his chest, "It is time for you and your family to pay for your crimes. Bring that monster child of yours forth and you might be able to see another day."
The people standing behind Kimani raised their torches and rakes. "Bring the child monster forth!" They chanted.
Lebwin's lips pulled down into a frown. "What is this? Are you calling my son a monster child."
His words made the people in the room look at Fazian who was standing quietly by his father's side. He had a frown on his face and anyone who met his eyes felt a chill run down their spine.
However, Kimani was quite foolish. He took a large step forward and smacked the table behind which Lebwin was seated, "You cannot lie to us any further. We know that you have hidden it somewhere in this house. It would be in your best interest to speak now."
Fazian smirked, "What proof do you have to show that I am keeping a monster child in my house. If you would so desire, I will cut off your tongue for provoking me so."
Undeterred, the stocky man shook his head, "Even now you refuse to admit to your crimes. If this Lord does not, then we will have to take larger measures and search the house."
Fazian's smile faded, "On what grounds do you have to search my house? Do you have no shame?"
Kimani took this as fear of his secret being revealed, therefore a larger smile fell on his chapped lips, "This venerable one shall not be worried, we shall only be doing a search. After all, your features are quite prominent. We would not mistake another child for your own."
As if he already owned the place, Kimani placed forward some orders to search the mansion.
The townspeople did not move. Who in the town did not know how dangerous Lord Bastete was. If he did not wish to pull the monster child out willingly, then they would keep quiet and leave. Notifying the authorities would be much easier.
They looked up at the foolish Kimani who was still dishing out orders.
Just then, a soft voice came from outside the office doors. "What is the meaning of this. Why have you all broken into the lord's mansion?"
They all immediately recognised that voice, and like the parting of the blue sea, they all gave the woman outside a chance to walk into the room.
With her task completed, Maore had already changed into her sleepwear. She had tousled her hair and her eyes seemed a little hazy. She gave those in the room a single look each as she walked to her husband's desk and bowed, "Venerable husband. What is happening here."
Lebwin frowned, as if displeased. He moved off his chair and offered it to his wife. Maore did not feel like complaining so she immediately took it.
With both men standing on either side of her, she looked every inch a regal queen. A gun was stuffed into her lap and she held it tightly in her hands.
"These men would like to search our house, Venerable Wife. They say that we have raised a monster child."
Maore gasped, and in a flurry of anger, she slammed her hand on the wooden table. This left a small handprint that was only visible to the two men standing on her sides.
"You dare accuse the Bastete family of such high treason. I shall give you all a chance to search the mansion if that is what you desire. However, if you dare come out empty handed, I shall be the one handing out punishments for disturbing my sleep this evening."
The men in the room reflexively shuddered. Compared to the lord Bastete, the lady Bastete was harder to get along with.
If she did not like something, the lord would dispose of it without question.
As such, everyone knew to beware of the Lady Bastete. If she was angered, her husband would kill all who had angered her without question.
To Kimani, however, how could they leave at this moment in time. He felt that the anger Maore was showing was a bluff. She had come from sleeping, therefore she expected her anger to chase them off.
He bowed, "If this Lord and Lady have no qualms, then we shall begin our search."
Maore watched them as they left the room. She still had that frown on her face and her chin was pointed up.
Kimani left a few men in the office, as if he feared that they would do something that would impede their search.
Lebwin stood behind his wife, giving her a massage on her shoulders.
Maore's hand, which was holding the gun, raised up slightly, giving him a thumbs up. He relaxed. She had managed to get their daughter away. That was enough for the moment.
His eyes then turned dark, "How many shall we kill for them calling our child a monster?" He whispered only for the two ears that were close to him.
Maore checked the number of bullets in the gun and sighed, "It seems we can only kill six people my dear. It's a pity. They need to be taught a lesson."
Fazian discreetly placed his gun on her lap and her eyes shone. "It seems that the number has increased by five. This is a good number."
Her eyes flitted to the window that showed the beautiful night sky. "I hope she is safe wherever she is."

S/T:
Almathea: (Wakes up in the middle of nowhere with no memories whatsoever) ...

Almathea Bastete is the second-born child of her family. 
At the age of five, she was abandoned by her parents and thrown to the most desolate place in the house to keep her a secret.
In this society where the birth of a second child is illegal, Almathea is supposed not to exist as she should have been killed upon her birth.
Her parents do well in hiding her, however, when she turns seventeen, her parents have to make the decision to let her go for her safety and their own.
Will she discover why second-born children are shunned in their society and bring back the harmony between the children born second and the rest of the world?
What about the underlying danger that is lurking in the shadows, threatening to bring about the end of the world?
Do they have the courage to face it all?

After they arrived at Port Town, the merchant went off to his business while Haruto and Akari enjoy the view and went on so many places, eat so many foods, they were enjoying themselves until it's already evening.

The two of them stayed in a inn for the night and relax.

The next day, they search for Aiko to confirm if she manipulated the fire dragon to attack the village, since they don't know the face of Aiko, they search her using her name, but no one knows her name, they search for a whole day but still they didn't find her.

They didn't give up, they search for her over and over, until 3 days have passed they still can't find her. Haruto never thought that it she was so hard to find her, the two of them are already tired of finding her, and then Akari suddenly came up with an idea.

The next day they went to the guild hall, the idea that Akari was talking about, if Aiko register as a adventurer in the Port Town, they asked the receptionist of the Port Town if they have a adventurer named Aiko, but the receptionist said they don't know any adventurer by that name, they were really hoping that the guild hall will know.

Haruto tried something, he asked the receptionist if they have a adventurer that can manipulate, the receptionist said that they have a adventurer that has the power to manipulate, and Akari asked where that adventurer live, and the receptionist tell them.

They go to where the receptionist said to meet Aiko, when they arrived at her house, a girl came out in the door, and she call her mother and tell her that there's someone outside, the mother allow the two of them to enter.

When they were inside, they asked if there's a adventurer named Aiko living in the house, when the mother hear the name Aiko they were kick out of the house, and the two of them was wondering if they do something wrong, they knock the door several times, but no one open the door, they still insist and asked if there's a adventurer named Aiko in the house, but no one answered, 

After a while the town started to get noisy, there were making a fuss about a adventurer killed by a giant rabbit monster, the after that, a adventurer quickly go to where Haruto and Akari is, Haruto and Akari thought that they were the one that the adventurer want, but the adventurer suddenly knock the door where Haruto and Akari is, the adventurer called the named Sicily over and over again, The two of them was wondering who is Sicily, then the mother came out of the house and come with the adventurer, Haruto and Akari followed them.

When they followed the two of them, they were going into the fields near the Port Town, and they saw a giant rabbit monster, the monster was so big and scary, the other adventurer helped, to defeat the monster, until the Sicily use her magic, and suddenly the monster calmed down, when it calm down they attack them together and defeated it.

After they defeated it, Sicily was so tired, then a one of the adventurer mentioned how useful her power to manipulate is, when the two of them heard about it, they were sure, Sicily is Aiko the wife of the guild master Ichijou.

Then when they started to go back to the town, the two of them quickly go to where Sicily is, and they asked her if she's Aiko.



In 2047 a new VRMMO game has been released, Divine Online a game where you can enjoy your fantasy life. Yuzaki Haruto was one of the 50 000 players who play the game but a unexpected event occurred, all the players were trapped inside the game and couldn't get out until they defeat the Demon Lord.

A few minutes of silent between us make all of us are kinda awkward now. I never thought that when I brought miss Elsiya to the team. I mean I know that she is a well known person but seems like she is too high profile for a student huh.
"Ahem.. I think we should register our team now and take a mission." said Grid and try to break the silent
"Yeah right. I think we should go now before it's too late." I said immediately
Three of them of nod at the same time. Seems like it's still quite hard for Darvan and miss Velma.
"Hello, we want to register our party." said Grid to the overseer
He look at us and said "Alright, give me our Student ID Card and pin your blood to this crystal"
"Ok." then all of us give our Student ID Card and pin our blood
"You can go to Student Mission Area and talk to the overseer there." said the overseer
"Thank you" (Grid)
We walk towards Student Affairs Hall but all of us is silent. I thought that we can't keep this going like this. In the Mission Area we talk to the overseer and then she said "Alright, follow me."
She brought us to a room.
"This is a mission room. Now you can choose the mission the Academy provides. When you already choose your mission please come to me. If you have any question you can ask me." said the female overseer
"Thank you. We will choose our mission now." (Grid)
Soon after the female overseer left us, we begin to talk which mission should we accept
"Well then, do you guys have any thought ?" said Grid
I look at the mission and said "Are we gonna choose subjection or gather the material ?"
"For me it's better to fight" said Darvan
"I choose gathering" add miss Velma
"How about you miss Elsiya ? You are a research student, I believe you can provide us more information regarding this" I said and look at miss Elsiya
"Well.. There are only 10 mission and two of them is already been taken by others team. So that mean we do not need to worry about clash with other team because we will have different mission." and then miss Elsiya continue said "I think it's better if we take the gather mission."
"Hmm.. can you told us why ?" (Rudeus)
"Yes, first if we take the subjection that mean after we kill the monster the mission is done but the thing is we won't get that much point. If I remember in this exam the most important thing is the point that the overseer give us, the more point we get the more rewards we receive. Second, when we gather the material that means we must fight with a monster beast too, so we can gather monster carapace. Not only we can gain more merit point, we can even sold those things. That's all" said miss Elsiya
"Well I kinda agree with her in this. After all we need more resources now to become stronger" I thought deeply
"So any other opinion ?" I ask other member
"What miss Elsiya said is right. I agree with her." said Grid
"Well if both of you agree then we agree too. But how can we search the material. It's not like all of us is known for accepting that kind of mission right" said miss Velma
"Well I think there won't be any problem for that. We have miss Elsiya in our party now. I believe she knows many information about those kind of things." then I continue said "What do you think miss Elsiya ?"
"Thank you mr Rudeus" (Elsiya)
"Alright now which one we will choose ?" said Grid and he look at miss Elsiya
"The hardest mission to gather is that one. To gather the bone of hundred years monster beast. We will face so many beast that even third year will have problem. As for the second one it will be to search and collect a 5 leaf rainbow herb" said miss Elsiya
"Wow, so the other gather mission is not dangerous ?" (Rudeus)
"Of course it is dangerous, but not as dangerous as the two mission" (Elsiya)
"I see. Well now choose guys." (Rudeus)
No one say anything though. Seems like everyone is kinda doubt which one to take. If we take the most dangerous one like miss Elsiya the death risk is higher, even though other mission have death risk too.
"I think we should think about what we want to achieve first" said Grid suddenly
"Yeah, Grid is right. We should think what we want to achieve. If we want a higher rewards we should choose the one miss Elsiya said. Well I believe everyone already think about accepting those two mission only, but which one right" (Rudeus)
"Yeah. But you should know Rudeus, even if we want more resources we must stay alive after the mission" (Darvan)
"You are right. Miss Elsiya, can you told us why those two is dangerous ? Is it because the place we need to go or the monster we need to kill" (Rudeus)
"Both. Well if we accept the one collect 5 leaf rainbow herb, the place is kinda hard to search and the monster guarding it will be stronger but at least I think we still have a chance. For the second one we need fight a lot of monster and I don't even know how strong they are. I know the place where we can gather bone of hundred years monster beast" said miss Elsiya
"Seems like it's the same. Let's just vote than" I said to others
"So raise your hand if you want to gather 5 leaf rainbow herb" (Rudeus)
Then miss Elsiya, Grid and miss Velma raise their hand
"Well three to two. Let's take it then" (Rudeus)
Well I guess for me and Darvan it's easier just to fight. After all both of us is pure combat Warrior
"Ok I will told the overseer the mission we choose." (Grid)
Then everyone get out from the room.
"Overseer, we take the mission to search and collect 5 leaf rainbow herb" (Grid)
"Ho ho.. I never though there will be a party dare to accept that mission. Well ok then. Take this plate. This plate mean that your party is the one that take that mission. You have 5 days to prepare. Go to east gate when the exam day begin" said the female overseer
"Thank you" we bow and left Student Mission Area
After we pick our mission we gather in Tree Garden Area to discuss strategy and what should we do in mission. We don't have any choice, most of the place like cafeteria and training ground is full of student
"So what we gonna do in the mission ?" (Darvan)
"Miss Elsiya can you elaborate what is 5 leaf rainbow herb and the location we must search" (Rudeus)
"Alright. the 5 leaf rainbow herb is a rare kind of herb that let the warrior breakthrough their level without much problem. If the Warrior use 5 leaf rainbow herb when they breakthrough It will increase the chance of success. Every leaf will give boost of 20% chance success." she stop for a moment think about something and then continue said "For the location we must search is the place where all the energy condense in one spot."
"Whoa.. that much boost huh. So if someone use 5 leaf that means 100% breakthrough then" (Darvan)
"Yes. But only Warrior level." (Elsiya)
"What do you mean by the place where energy condense in one spot miss Elsiya" (Grid)
"Well, the easier to say for example is Student Peak Area. You all should know if you train in that place your training speed is increase by many fold. I don't know if everyone know it but it's because the energy is condense in one area. Of course they use something like array to do that and to make it time slower inside that place." (Elsiya)
"So you mean we must search a place like that but a natural one huh." said Grid seriously
"Yeah that's right" (Elsiya)
"Alright then. I will try gather as much as I can to increase our chance complete this mission" said Grid
"I will look into research document then" add miss Elsiya
"Well that means three of us will take care of our supply" I said and Darvan and miss Velma nod too
"Alright let's meet up before the exam day" (Grid)
All of us nod and then begin our assignment.

A Gamer who transmigrated to another world which lead him to the new adventure which he never dream and imagine

Damon walked to the same place as yesterday only to find someone waiting there for him. He observed more as he got closer and was surprised. 
'What is she doing here?' He wondered as he frowned while looking thoughtful. It didn't stop him from approaching his training area though. 
The other party seemed to notice him and approached Damon with a rather vigilant look as she checked the surroundings constantly.
Erza Scarlet was perhaps even more beautiful than Mirajane, or rather, they were equal but different types of beauty. 
Mira seemed more like a cute girl next door with a kind and approachable aura. While Erza had a dignified and knightly aura on an alluring face, the contrast made her unique. 'Both of them are very attractive...' Damon thought as he looked at her more closely then stopped in front of her. 
Since he was wearing a T-shirt for training early, she saw the mark and after taking a look at his face seemed to recognize him, "You are Damon, Laxus's fan, right?" 
He was shocked, 'Was this guy a fanboy?! Hmmm... I mean Laxus saved him so it's expected... The Diary also wrote a lot about how Laxus was this and that...'
She didn't seem to care about Damon becoming uncomfortable and the atmosphere turning awkward. She continued, "It is best you leave this area, there was a report about a monster roaming these parts."
She suddenly noticed the wooden sword and asked with a raised eyebrow, "Did you come here to fight the monster as well? As expected of a member of Fairy Tail." 
She nodded quite seriously, "Hm." She even seemed a bit proud. 
Damon was truly puzzled, 'What monster? I was here yesterday and saw nothing...'
He said with confusion, "I am sure there is no monster here, I was here yesterday." 
Erza's attention turned to him and said causally as she pointed at the cut trees, "Those were done by the monster, you were lucky. Stay vigilant, it could return at any moment."
Damon froze, 'I am the monster?!' He gulped awkwardly and began walking away thinking, 'The sound must have alerted the people close... I should train deeper in the forest...' 
"Stop!" He heard her shout from behind and turned to look at her awkwardly, "I have somewhere to be so..." 
Erza quickly stopped in front of his path, "It is unacceptable, if you have decided to defeat the monster and came all the way here, then as a member of Fairy Tail, you must see it to the end." 
Damon was stuck, 'What?!'
He tried to convince her, "You are already on it, so it's best that I leave."
She stubbornly shook her head, "The more the better, we can cover more ground with two. I have waited here for hours and it has yet to come... Actually, that's a great idea, I will drag everybody to search and quickly end this." She decided on her own and grabbed his hand forcefully. 
He was taken aback, 'This is escalating...' Just as he tried to talk, she began running and dragged him with her. "We must hurry."
He couldn't talk on the way, she ran very fast and he had to give it his all not to trip and fall. She dragged him and it only made it harder for him... He tried to get out of her grip but she thought it was because she had but not enough strength into it and clenched harder. He felt his hand getting crushed and stopped...
'She is strong... I can't get away!' Damon thought with indignation.
 'S-class wizards are extremely strong physically, I wonder just how strong she really is...' He thought as they reached the guild. 
Erza finally let go of his hand and he fell down gasping for air, She kicked open the door of the guild. 
"Listen, Everyone! There is a monster in the East Forest and you are all coming with me to search for it." She commanded everyone. 
Some people groaned and some sighed, while a few tried to talk their way out of it only for Erza to shout with a chilling glare, "My decision is final, We go NOW!" 
The hall turned silent, even Damon was a bit shocked by the sudden change, 'Isn't she a Monster herself?' 
The silence was broken by an excited voice, "A Monster Search?! Count me in, it sounds fun. I am all fired up!" A lean young man that seemed to be 17 jumped in front of Erza with a grin. He had a loose outfit and pink hair color. His name, Natsu Dragneel. 
Erza smiled, "Good."
"Hey, can you pipe down a bit, idiot? I am trying to sleep here." Said a half-naked man that seemed unimpressed and tired. He had a toned and muscular body with black hair. His name, Grey Fullbuster. 
 Natsu said with sarcasm, "Are you afraid of the monster, Ice princess?" 
Grey stood up all pissed, "What did you say?"
Natsu approached him, "You heard me, or are you going deaf from old age?" 
Just as they were about to reach each other, they both seemed to shiver under Erza's glare. Grey took the initiative and put his hand on Natsu's shoulder, they both smiled like friends, "haha, we are good friends right?"
"Totally." They began dancing! 
Damon watched them with an open mouth, 'It is so ridiculous when I look at it from this perspective...' He had recovered from the long run already. 
 Erza ignored them and looked at the rest of the guild, "What are you waiting for?"
"Yes, yes..."
"Let's go, everyone!"
"Be a MAN!" 
She riled up the entire guild and in a few moments, the hall became empty. The entire guild had left to the east forest to search for a monster that didn't even exist. 
Damon looked around and the deserted place, only Mira was left and she was busy with some papers. He observed everywhere and found nobody around, 'Good, I was not involved thankfully.' 
Just as he walked inside the guild, he felt an iron grip on his shoulder, "I almost forgot you, Let's go." Erza dragged him with the others... 'But there is no monster!' he screamed internally. 
Damon felt a little bad about scaring the people in the Town for no reason, that was why he also felt responsible. 'Before this escalates even more, I have to tell her.' 
For some reason, he could already imagine them searching for a few days without rest. It fit perfectly with Erza's personality. 'I can't waste time like this! I need money for food!'
Before they reached the East Forest, he stopped Erza. She was surprised. He said seriously, "Listen, I was training with my sword and cut those trees. There is no monster."
She turned thoughtful and glanced at the wooden Zangetsu on his back, "That explains a lot... The way the trees were cut seemed to be by a blunt edge. I see... Why didn't you tell me sooner?!" 
He replied with a little exasperation, "You didn't let me speak!"
She was taken aback. Damon took advantage and continued, "Then cancel this. I have to go on a job. I am broke..." 
Erza nodded, "Indeed, I should have listened before deciding." 
Damon smiled and began walking away, "Good, cya!"
He felt her grip his shoulder, "However, This doesn't change the fact that you have scared the Town's people with your training." 
He sincerely said, "I had no idea there were people nearby..."
She let go of him, "I see, please keep it in mind in the future."
He began walking toward the guild, "Okay, Goodbye."
"Wait a moment. Were you training with your wooden sword?" She asked. 
He nodded, she continued, "Perhaps I can help? I have been searching for a partner to spar with for a while now."
Damon paused and began thinking, 'This is... really good! I can learn how to fight from her since she uses swords and such...'
He smiled, "That's a very good idea!"
Erza also smiled, "Let's tell the others it is canceled and then go."
They quickly caught up to the crowd and told them the search was canceled. Everyone was annoyed as they returned... 
Erza and Damon didn't return though, they walked to the East Forest and walked deep inside. 
Natsu noticed that with his sense of smell and thought, 'They are going to hunt it by themselves? No Fair...' 
He turned to look at a blue cat that was sitting on his shoulder, "Happy, Let's go after them! This is gonna be fun!"
"Aye, sir."
Grey stopped walking back when he heard it. He followed Natsu... 
In the Forest, two wooden swords appeared in Erza's hands. Damon casually took the wooden Zangetsu that was on his back and aimed its tip at Erza. 
He was very excited inside, 'My 1st fight in this world, actually a spar but it is not that different...' He had completely forgotten the money problem. 
Erza entered battle mode, "I won't go easy on you even if we are training."
Damon smirked, "I wouldn't dream of it..."
"Let's begin."
Natsu and happy watched from behind trees with excited eyes.

Some say that magic is an abomination. Some treat it as a tool... And others think of it as a gift. 
But I believe magic is alive and if one truly sees it as such... The possibilities will be limitless. 
Once upon a time, a young man woke up in another body in another world as another person. It has been told countless times, the same story over and over. 
"Transmigration. A new beginning. What many desire. However, we fail to see that what we truly want is not those things, it is to be free with infinite possibilities in front of us. Because our possibilities have been chained by the world we live in, Earth; Or rather, the people in our world..." 
Damon looked at the glowing sphere in his hand and smiled in excitement, "But with this... This new chance... I am free, an eternal adventure in front of me filled with wonders and possibilities."
Damon's adventure, from man to king, from Fairy Tail to Marvel. One Magic To Rule Them All.
