《Scarlet Blood》 Book 1 Chapter 1 ( Liselle POV) ¡°20th of Quintilis, Year : 1200 AC, Day: Solis, Weather: Sunny Today is my first time writing a diary. My name is Vlad Dawnstar. I am 7 years old. My Mommy is Emily Von Herbishire and my Daddy is Thomas Dawnstar. I am very happy with my life. Today I got to play with my Daddydy although he is busy now fighting with mutated evil monsters which eat people. My Daddy is a hero. Well Mommy is also nice to me. But sometimes she scolds me. I am gonna fight monsters someday beside my Daddy. But something strange happened after Daddy returned from his daily scouting. He started telling Mommy that we needed to leave this village as fast as possible. I think something happened with uncle today. Well it happens all the time. Oh. Mommy is calling me to eat. Gotta go¡± Eh? Isn¡¯t this diary very old? A guy as creepy as him was cute and childish when he was young huh? You don¡¯t tell. If I knew that I have to a strange creepy guy¡¯s room and read his diary, I never would¡¯ve taken this bet at all!! But let¡¯s continue reading what he wrote. ¡°24th of Quintilis, Year: 1200 AC, Day: Jovis, Weather: Rainy Today I am really sad because Mommy scolded me again. I just wanted to go out to play. Why would she scold me over that? Today Daddy is also a little skeptic. He told Mommy that there is going to be a huge wave of evil monsters attacking our village. And he has to participate in the defense of the village together with Mommy. Surely they will return by the end of the day. Right? Mommy is a healer actually. So she supports my Daddy in battles.¡± Is this already the end of the diary? There are many tore notes. Ah there is a letter inside. To whom? I¡¯ll read it. I should go all the way. ¡°28th of Martius, Year: 1206 AC, Day: Saturni, Weather: Cloudy Dear mom and dad, Doctor told me that the best way of relieving psychological stress is writing. So I am writing to you. I am missing you both. Who am I kidding? I myself saw my mom¡¯s corpse and grotesque scene of dad eating my mom¡¯s corpse. Later it was revealed that a parasitic monster had occupied dad¡¯s brain. Why? Why did it have to happen to my family? Had we sinned? That day I swore I will take revenge of destroying family on all the mutated monsters! But all I¡¯ve done is train for these 6 years. Am I getting strong? I don¡¯t know the standard anymore. After I ran from the doctor¡¯s with only a sword I did not return. These past three years I¡¯ve been killing monsters. I¡¯ve killed monsters and ate them for living. I¡¯ve been bathing in the blood of my enemies. What is the point of killing anymore? Do these monsters have any conscience? Who am I taking revenge on? I don¡¯t know anymore. Hatred gives born to more hatred. This letter might n¡­..Wait is this a letter anymore? How do you write a letter again? I can hardly keep track of dates. I am thinking of returning to civilization then going on a journey after I get rid of this parasitic bitches¡¯ nest. I think my attitude might have changed. Who cares? Changing attitude is a pain in the ass. Who will I act courteous for? I don¡¯t have anyone left. Enough of this diary/letter.¡± Tears start rolling down my face. How did a 13 years old kid survive against monsters? Wait 24th Quintilis!?? The first wave attack after a century of peace! It happened on 25th of Quintilis. Which means he is a survivor of the Volk Village Tragedy? The whole village was massacred by devourers. Wait there is another letter!? ¡°25th of Januarius, Year: 1210 AC, Day: Veneris, Weather: Don¡¯t care How many days have I been in the nest for? At least 4 years! Where can I find civilization? Where am I! Who am I! I know I am Vlad Crestfallen. I changed my name. I guessed that my family name will be on the victim ls I was just adding a little dramatic effect. I am just a little delirious because I haven¡¯t talked to any life form in these past four years. I don¡¯t know how people act now. Has anything changed? I saw a signboard. I am currently at the Illuminaris Continent. The closest city is Asteris. I am heading there now. End of letter. I mean I hope to talk to real people instead of writing letters without destination. Ah! I finally reached the Asteris. And got into an inn. For the name I¡¯ll write it tomorrow.¡± (Find out on the next episode of dragon ball z) Well that explains his creepy behavior. I have done a wrong thing. I shouldn¡¯t have read his writings without his permission. I¡¯ll apologize the first time I see him. When we last saw him he was acting laidback and watched us with strange and hideous expression. Was he trying to smile at us? He is quite handsome now that I think about it. If he shaves I bet he will look even better. I sense something. I look back and *Thud* Everything turns black. (Vlad POV) I finally reached this place Asteris yesterday. Now they use different type of currency called taels. By exchanging a few monster pelts that I¡¯ve killed, I gained a handsome amount of taels. Well if the shopkeeper hadn¡¯t helped me I wouldn¡¯t be able to do shit. After that I earned some money from merchants¡¯ guild. Oh that¡¯s what they call the place where businessman dudes gather and buy stuff from adventurers. Another funny thing is now they call us adventurers. And apparently this is now a popular profession and many people are joining the douche band (Adventurer Guild). I have to take a shower, do a shave and then socialize with people. But now everything has changed. Houses are bigger than before. People are wearing weird clothing. At least to me it¡¯s weird. I run to the tavern to satisfy my hunger. And there I see a group of girls sitting in the corner table. A beautiful elf girl is looking at me so I try to smile at them. Eh? Why is she looking at me like she is looking at a pedophile that is looking at a kid? Well¡­. Fuck you too. Well I finish eating Burg n¡¯ Chick ultimate combo that I¡¯ve ordered. Well the name was better than the rest. After that I go to my room that I¡¯ve rented in the cats¡¯ paw (lol) inn and keep my stuff on the bed, freshen up and go to the library to get an update on the world. Unauthorized usage: this tale is on Amazon without the author''s consent. Report any sightings.. . . Everyone today is looking at me creepily, what is wrong with them? My clothes might be it. It looks like it has been stained by gallons of blood. Not wrong though. I talk to the guild receptionist lady and take a history book. I immediately start reading it. Apparently the monster attack that happened on my village was the 1st monster wave attack in the last century and everyone died according to the book. But I¡¯m alive, take that motherfuckers. Now they have gotten accustomed to the monsters and call them devourers. The weapons guild found a special way to create a weapon that can kill them. But normal weapons can also kill them, I killed ¡®em myself with norms. You just gotta know the weak points. Now is 26th of Januaris. It¡¯s been a day already from when I have returned to civilization. . . Enough info gathering. I need to go back to the inn and bathe and do a shave. Eh? My door is open. Is there a thief? I go in and silently creep up to the thief and hit the head and the thief faints. I flip the body to get a better look. What!? Isn¡¯t it the same ¡®pedophile look¡¯ girl!? What was she doing in my room! My diary and letters are scattered around. Did she read ¡®em? Oh we are gonna have a long conversation about this when she wakes up. She is out cold. Well I¡¯ll take a bath and a shave in the meantime. . Finally I look a little decent. I take a chair in front of the bed and sit there. She is snoring. I knocked her out, how can she sleep that peacefully? She looks pretty cute. Curvy body with well endowed breasts. Nice. She suits to my tastes. . . How long does she plan to sleep!!! I go get a bucket full of water and pour it over her head. ¡°FUEH!!!!!??¡± Eh? Fue? What the hell is that? ¡°Who are you and why are you reading my diary in MY room?¡± I ask solemnly. ¡°I am sorry. I l-lost a bet with my friends and they told me to do it after they witnessed you writing letters.¡± She is fidgeting while answering like a girl who is about to lose her virginity. Is she? I AM NOT A RAPIST! Am I? NO! ¡°Ok. But if you tell another soul what you read on this diary, you should know the consequences of your actions.¡± I tell seriously. ¡°You are not going to rape me?¡± She looks a little relieved. Don¡¯t be relieved little lady. THIS JOURNEY TOTALLY FUCKED WITH MY HEAD! ¡°N-no I am not. Now scram to where you came from!¡± I say and she runs out. Well now that¡¯s over. But someone read ¡®em eh? It was bound to happen anyways. I might¡¯ve been a little too rude with her, I¡¯ll apologize tomorrow. For now I need to go to sleep. I guess I¡¯ll join the douche band tomorrow and take some quests to earn some money. I¡¯ll finally live a laidback life from now on. . . *Knock**Knock* ¡°Huh?¡± It is 1 AM. Who can it be? Why doesn¡¯t anyone let a man sleep at night!! I open the door and I see the girl again. I am seriously going to do her if she doesn¡¯t have a good reason to disturb me. ¡°I am really sorry for my behavior and I¡¯ve come to compensate for what I-I¡¯ve done. You c-can do anything t-to me tonight.¡± EHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!? ¡°I forgive you and don¡¯t go telling that to any man over small mistakes. If you told this to any other man, it would¡¯ve been dangerous. You are quite beautiful so preserve it. Don¡¯t do this act again. Okay?¡± I tell her while controlling myself. ¡°O-Okay. You are a good man, aren¡¯t you?¡± She blushes and runs away. The hell is she talking about? Well I¡¯ll let her have her fantasies and now I feel a need, a need for sleep. I go to sleep again. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Well guys author hear. My last fiction was a flop. I hope this one doesn''t turn out that way. I am gonna try my best. Please give a review on how I may improve my story and in which ways should I improve it. A special thanks to the people who are reading my work. Author out. Book 1 Chapter 2 (Vlad POV) Now it is morning and I am walking towards the douche band (adventurers¡¯ guild). From there I will take a quest and fiddle around. I gotta earn some more or I¡¯ll end up broke as shit. . . Huh? The gate looks like it¡¯s some kind of smug high class brothels gate. Though I never visited brothels, I only read about ¡®em. I enter. WHAT THE FUCK!? Why the heck is there a joker in the reception desk!? . I stand in the line to join the douche band. ¡°Why so serious?¡± He asks me after looking at my face. ¡°Let me tell you joke.¡± The joker receptionist with green hair with lipstick on his face tells me. ¡°Go on.¡± I tell him. ¡°Once upon time there was a cat, he was a bat. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! FUNNY ISN¡¯T IT!????? LAUGH WITH ME!!!¡± ¡°Hahaha..hahahahahahahaha.¡± After that I fill my form and walk away. THE FUCK WAS WRONG WITH THE JOKER!? I go to the request board see the available request. Catch a thief, Find 50 pelts of saber toothed wolf, this has a good amount of reward. I can sleep a whole month in inns with this amount of money!! Hell yeah! I think no more and take this request. I should go to the mountain range to hunt the wolves. I depart. . . It¡¯s been two hours before I started walking and I am still walking. Ah, many of the douche band members are going in a carriage. Is that the green haired joker from the reception? Yes, yes it is. WHY THE FUCK DO I SEE THIS JOKER SO OFTEN!? He inspects me and smiles creepily. What the fuck is wrong with this guy? Why does smile at me that way? I AM NOT A RAINBRO! (BTW rainbow = gay, The gay people = Rainbro, no offense) I try to forget and start to run. . . Finally after 30 more damn minutes I reached the mountain. I know what you all ask, I didn¡¯t take carriages cause they¡¯re pricey as hell. And I am broke as shit right now. Anyways I start searching for Saber Toothed Wolves, the name is too long. I¡¯ll call them rat wolves from now. Eh? Let alone Rat Wolves why aren¡¯t there any animals around here? ¡°COME OUT YOU RAT BITCHES!¡± Nothing happened. But it was worth trying. . . . COME ON!!! Where the heck are the rat wolves!? Oh! There is one there. I run to the wolf and go with a straight slash with my sword and it dodges. It starts running. Are you serious? I quickly start running. Damn! It¡¯s too fast. I pick a stone and throw at it. It stumbles but continues running. But it slows down a notch. I got an idea! I start climbing up a tree. And stalk it from above. I take a vine I jump to another tree screaming , ¡°AAaaaAAAAaaaaaAAAh!¡± like a jungle guy. . . After swinging and climbing for many times the wolf finally stopped. WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK!! ISN¡¯T IT WHAT YOU CALL THE WHOLE POPULATION OF WOLVES!! There is a single man between the wolves. I get it! He is the jungle guy! The wolf lord! Or The Jungle Wolf Man!!!! Enough of this! What is wrong with this guy? He is wearing monkey skin on his body, and skunk skin bottom. And his helmet is a gorilla mask. It looks like the skunk is biting on his dick or more likely sucking it. I shout at him, ¡°AWOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! I AM A WOOOOOOLF!¡± Like a wolf. He ignores me. ¡°AAAAAAAaaaaaaaAAAAAAAaaaahh!!¡± I scream like a man who knows the jungle. This time he looks around searching for my voice. ¡°(What The Fuck)¡± I whisper slowly. I throw a vine, but he doesn¡¯t pick it up. WHAT THE HELL!? Vine is coming out from his wrist. He came on the tree with just that. This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road; report any instances of this story if found elsewhere.¡°HOW DID YOU DO THAT!? ARE YOU SPIDERMAN!?¡± I shout. ¡°No, I no spiderman. Me JUNGLE MAN! AAAAaaaaaaAAAAaaaaAAAAH!¡± The fuck? . . . . After much pain and perseverance I was able to take 50 pelts from the jungle man. I start to return home. . . Why is there a pack over there? I go a little closer and see a few people fighting. There is blonde handsome guy fighting there. I see him fight. No wolf is passing through him. Guess he¡¯s really strong or the wolves are really weak. Well I got no business now that I got my pelts, I shall leave first. But first I need to take a piss. I go to the nearby bush and start pissing. . I look at my right side and I freeze. HOW DID HE GET HERE!?( THE JOKER IS BACK!) ¡°I think we will be enemies in the next life, my friend.¡± The joker tells me putting hand on my shoulder. Yes. He was taking a piss right beside me. ¡°Perhaps we will be.¡± I say that agreeing with him and run off. Am I suffering from the JOKE curse!? . . I enter the douche band and hand over the pelts to the manager who seems to be normal enough. After doing the first request I can be an official douche. I collect my money from the counter and head to the tavern. . I enter the tavern which goes by the name of ¡°Cows hat¡±. A sedu-waitress greets me. I go in and order the special menu which has Boar Stew and Salad. I start eating. A bald guy comes in and is coming over here. ¡°Who do ya think ya are, ey! It¡¯s mah table! Scram!¡± The arrogant dick head is still screaming. I get up and punch him in the face without saying anything. *THUD* he falls down. Hehehehe. Got what you deserve you bitch. No one seems surprised though. Guess it happens quite often in the tavern. After that I finish eating and I start to head to the hotel. ¡°Huh?¡± I hear weird sounds and take a peek in a narrow place. Isn¡¯t the elf girl!? She is currently doing it with the bald guy and seems to enjoy it. THE HELL!? I thought I was heading to her route in romance. With little shock I go home. I wash up and go to sleep. . . . Today is the day I laze around. I should go to a good view spot. There is a flower valley close by. I¡¯ll go there I guess. I reached the valley. I am shocked by the scene I see there. The elf girl, more specifically her corpse. I am not much shocked. Cause I saw her doing the deed with a bald arrogant guy. Anyways Someone stabbed her many times and disposed her in here. I take her corpse and bury it. Oh I need to take a piss. Without thinking anymore I start pissing. After it I notice something. What. The. Fuck. I just pissed somewhere I shouldn¡¯t! I ask for forgiveness to the ladies grave. I got to investigate this murder. Guess the first thing I¡¯ll do tomorrow is interrogate the bald guy. ____________________________________________________________ This is Author. Thanks for the people who read my work and please leave a comment on how I may improve my story and writing style. This time I''ve added a little comedy and you can hate me for the twist. XD Book 1 Chapter 3 (3rd Person View) The tavern where people drink and dance is now in middle of a bar brawl. There a boy is mercilessly beating down a bald man. A joker is beating on an unknown stranger. WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON!? (Vlad POV) Currently I am punching the arrogant motherfucker as hard as I can, he seems he is gonna fall soon but I ain¡¯t someone to give in. I¡¯ll beat him black and blue for what he said. *Flashback to the beginning of the day* TOO HUNGRY! I should go eat something. All this burying has made me tired. I start heading toward the tavern at full force. On the way I notice something. SHIT! My coin pouch! I think I left it at the murder scene. I go back to the murder scene, there I search for my pouch. I find a tree branch. Blood and chunks of flesh is lodged in it. It is very clear that the murderer has no weapons, and killed her with a wood stick. Now that I remember it, while punching the bald guy he didn¡¯t have a weapon, did he? And he did the deed with her yesterday. But there are loads of noobs who doesn¡¯t use or have weapons even for safety. Are they retarded? Anyways I should head to the tavern for now as I think I left my pouch while eating dinner there. I start heading there¡­. . . I reach the tavern. The bald guy is still drinking there, like the fuck is wrong with you man!? Are you too rich or too NEET? Wait I need to investigate him. I head to his table. ¡°Friend, sorry for yesterday. Today drink is on me. HEY WAITRESS! Bring a daily dunk drink for two!¡± ¡°Ey! Do ye think it is easy to fuck with me!? Eh!? Bring me da Rotburn ale!¡± WHAT THE FUCK!? IT IS TOO EXPENSIVE! Bro let me make myself clear. I AM GONNA FUCKING OWN YOU BITCH!!! ¡°Waitress you heard the man!¡± The waitress brings the ale to him and me. I drink it and he drinks it. ¡°This is the best!¡± I take the pretense of a drunken man. I wonder why the ale¡¯s effect didn¡¯t affect me yet though. ¡°Hey friend today I looked at you and you seemed pretty happy. Did something good happen?¡± ¡°Yea Ah gave it good to a hoe the other day. She told me before that Ah am to low classed for the bitch! But then Ah stole her bag and made her do it. Hehe.¡± ¡°Oh, where can I find her? I¡¯ve been feeling lonely these few days.¡± ¡°Ya can¡¯t. I took care of dat cunt.¡± ¡°Won¡¯t the law enforcement punish you? What will you do then?¡± ¡°Law enforcement won¡¯t do shit for a hoe like her.¡± ¡°Killing is going a little overboard, don¡¯t you think?¡± I tell him threateningly. ¡°What? Ye gonna run to yer mama telling that killings no good?¡± He insults me. ¡°Now now. Don¡¯t bring parents into this conversation.¡± I tell him lightly. ¡°I fucked ur mama and gave born to ur papa bitch! I don¡¯t care about any parents!¡± Now he said something that is infuriating. Just at that moment the drink kicks in and I lose my sanity. (Joker POV) Where is the lad I wonder? I¡¯ll head to tavern and go joke a little. HAHAHAHA! I enter and see a really funny scene. An all out BRAWL. ¡°Let me join in the fun!!!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!¡± Ah the lad is beating on a bald man. Did the bald man do anything I wonder? HAHAHAHAHAHA! ****Flashback end**** That¡¯s how it came to this You might be reading a stolen copy. Visit Royal Road for the authentic version.(Vlad POV) I keep punching until he collapses and I collapse from the alcohol in the ale. . . . I open my eyes and FUCK! THAT HEADACHE! When my eyes are cleared up I am shocked yet again. WHY YOU DO THIS TO ME!? YOU DAMN JOKING BITCH! The joker is sitting cross legged beside me. Seems he also joined the brawl. Where is the bald guy? I look everywhere and see him collapsed. I take his body and strap it to a chair. Now I am gonna give him to the law enforcement after a little torture. HEHEHEHEHE! I am not gonna torture him much. Just gonna cut his tongue and dick. That¡¯s all. . . . Performing a surgery is pretty hard if I do say so myself. HAHAHAHA! Shit! I don¡¯t want a joker syndrome! After that I dumped the screaming man in front of the law enforcement office. Case solved I guess. I AM NOT SHERLOCK HOLMES. Am I? NO! I will go to douche band and take another request to earn the money that I lost due to the expensive ale. . . I am at the Douche Band (Adventurers guild). I am searching for a good request. It seems that new requests came in. ¡°Escort an important cargo Rewards: 20¡¯000g¡± ISN¡¯T THAT REWARD A BIT MUCH!? What will be escorted, a princess!? That would be good in many ways. Yes many ways after all. Hehehe. I take the escort request and go to the meeting location at the right time. A maid is standing there. ¡°Hello? Did you make the request of escorting?¡± I ask politely. ¡°Yes. You are the one who took the request I suppose?¡± She politely replies. ¡°Yes. Then who should I escort? And to where? You weren¡¯t very specific on the details.¡± I ask. ¡°Ah sorry about that. You will escort an important person today. She is my master¡¯s daughter. Her name is Anastasia.¡± ISN¡¯T THAT REALLY A PRINCESS!? AN OJOU-SAMA HAS APPEARED! ¡®SHE¡¯ IS THE CARGO!? ¡°So when do we depart?¡± Wait why am I the only person here? No one else took the request. Ah! The request had just arrived back then. I remembered. I did good taking the request before anyone. ¡°We will depart in a moment. We will go to Fairy Grove City.¡± Oh that¡¯s not too far. Why would they need an escort for that? They aren¡¯t merchants. So why? ¡°I need to know as I am the one escorting. How important is she? Is she a princess or something?¡± I ask deliberately. ¡°Ah no. It¡¯s just that the master pampers her a lot and is sending her on a vacation to their ancestral home. But he doesn¡¯t want her to go alone. Thus arranging an escort.¡± I Guess that¡¯s what happens when you have too much money to waste or you are too much dumb. Well there is the bandit problem. I think I will have to deal with a few bandits on the way. She comes out. Damn. She deserves the title Ojou-sama. High class clothing, blonde hair, beautiful face and gracious curves she has it all. But she seems arrogant so a no go. We get into the carriage and depart for the Fairy Grove City. ____________________________________________________________ Author here. This is my third chapter. Please leave a comment on how I may improve my writing. And please comment if you want a harem or single. Book 1 Chapter 4 THIS ARROGANT BITCH IS SO FUCKING ANNOYING!! I start regretting right after getting on the carriage. The princess is annoyingly groaning about why I dirtied her carriage by sitting in it. Fuck you bitch. But I am getting paid to endure. So do I give a shit? No, no I don¡¯t. . . The carriage should have reached by now, but it is still moving. I ask the driver, ¡°Dude, it¡¯s been like two hours already. Shouldn¡¯t we reach the goddamn place by now!?¡± I ask getting impatient. ¡°Fuck you.¡± Did he just say that to me? ¡°Fuck your mama.¡± I said that to him. ¡°No, fuck your dad and your mom.¡± Again, IS HE SERIOUSLY TELLING THAT TO ME!? BRING IT ON BITCH! ¡°I fucked your mum and gave birth to you brat. CALL ME YOUR DAD!¡± After I said that he got quiet. I could almost see a respectful look on his face. ¡°Why are you ignoring me!?¡± Shit, I forgot that the bitch was there. *Iooking outside a window like ikemen* Oh there is a beautiful donkey beside that tree. ¡°Why are you quietly looking at a donkey!? And you have a satisfied impression! You dare ignore me!¡± The bitch-sama still screams. Isn¡¯t her voice a bit too loud! Wait I hear horse steps. BANDITS! This carriage stops and I and the driver get out of the carriage. ¡°Give us everything you own! And then we¡¯ll think of let*Puchi*¡± Before he finishes I swiftly throw a dagger at the bandit¡¯s throat and go towards his subordinates. There are about 20 bandits here including the corpse. I go towards them and start killing bandits one by one. They don¡¯t hold a candle to me. Amateurs. I¡¯ll stop acting arrogant for now. A bandit attacks me with a dagger, I wasn¡¯t fast enough and the dagger grazes me. I am not that weak to die from a team attack! I get a grip and take a falling dagger and throw it straight into the eyes of a bandit and use my backhand to push my sword into the throat of another. After that I dodge two incoming dagger slash and lunge towards the heart of the attackers with my sword. Almost all of them are dead now. ¡°It¡¯s just me and you now. Come to me if you want death and run away if you choose to live.¡± I tell that sounding confident. He ran away. Was there a poison on the dagger!? Damn it! I am lucky that the bandit bought my words and with that I lose my consciousness. . . I wake up. I push myself up, and then I notice a bandage on my wounds. And the poison seems to have been removed from my body. I stand and see the driver sitting there. I ask, ¡°Where is the bitch?¡± ¡°In the tent.¡± He replies. Wait he didn¡¯t retort to me after I cursed. Maybe we share the same opinion about her. It is already night. Seeing that tent, I know we are camping now. Guess we are gonna continue at daybreak. My wounds are also healed. I think the driver knows healing magic. I need to practice a bit. This novel is published on a different platform. Support the original author by finding the official source.I start training and train till the sun is up completely. I look at the tent, the bitc-girl is looking at me like she is looking at a great teacher. Did my training impress her? Well I could care less. ¡°Rudeus Let¡¯s go! The bi-Ojou has woken up!¡± I tell Rude- oh that is the drivers name btw. We continue our journey. The scenery is changing bit by bit. It¡¯s gotten a lot colder. I think we are almost at the Fairy Grove City. I can see a huge wall from here. They are well guarded, aren¡¯t they? We have finally reached and 20,000g is mine!!!! After bidding goodbye to the bitch and driver, I go towards the FGDB (Fairy Grove Douche Band) to collect my money as it is the branch of the Asteris Douche Band. Finally I can rest at the inn! Maybe now that I am rich I will buy a house and spend my days in luxury there. I go towards the inn for now and take a room for the night. Because I will return to Asteris tomorrow. There is luxurious life waiting for me there!!! Oh yeah! After eating the dinner I head towards my room and lock the door. After that I freshen up and go to sleep. . . ¡°Ahh¡± I twist and wake up from my slumber. I freshen up and go to the courtyard. It is empty right now and I will train a little to sharpen my moves. I noticed a thing before while fighting with the bandits. They were using a same set of moves differently and masterfully. Maybe that¡¯s what they call fighting style. Compared to that, I have no fighting style at all. I will have to find a dependable teacher to learn a good balanced style for fighting. I start training. I do a hundred pushups, sit ups, and run for 2 hours. But I don¡¯t want to get bald. After I finish training I am drenched in sweat and I stink a LOT! I need to take a bath. I go towards the bathroom and sit in the bath. . . Ahhh! It feels so amazing after you¡¯ve taken a bath! I will make preparations for the return now. I shop for some clothing and buy a bag. After packing it, I go to the merchant¡¯s guild to buy a horse. . . I search for the horses in stock and find one to my liking. According to them it is a rare horse named Demon Black Horse. These horses absorb mana and run very fast. These are called mana beasts. They have sanity unlike devourers and they can also absorb mana unlike devourers. It¡¯s price is¡­.. eh? 4000g!??????? WHAT THE FATHER FUCKING FUCK!? Now I only have 15¡¯000g left. *Sobs* I take the horse and depart for the Asteris City. Journey again. But this time it won¡¯t take me long as I have nothing dragging me back. Thinking that I start the journey. Book 1 Chapter 5 ¡°YEAH!!!! Yeehaw! I am a fucking COWBOY!¡± Screaming that I start galloping on my horse wearing the new weird mask that I bought. ¡°Take that outlaw motherfuckers!¡± Saying that I throw stones at many things like chicken, birds etc. Wait, WHAT THE FUCKING FUCK AM I DOING!? I must¡¯ve gotten high while riding on the horse. Yes that must be it. You know what. FUCK IT! I start galloping again. . . Ah! There is a town! I head to the stables and open my mask keeping my horse there. I go into the town and go start socializing. I WILL DO IT! I WILL LEECH OF MONEY FROM OTHER PEOPLE! Wait somehow the people seem disturbed and irritated. Did something happen? I go to a near peddler to ask if anything has happened. ¡°Well a stupid masked guy is throwing stones while riding on a horse. He is throwing stones at our livestock! THAT LUNATIC!¡± Well, damn. I seem to be famous now. I better get out before anyone notices. I quickly return to the stables and take the horse. I start go towards Asteris City again. . . SO. DAMN. HUNGRY!!!!!!!! I did not get to eat anywhere, damn it. It is about mid day and it is gonna take 3 more hours at least to reach my destination. This is how the undead must feel. Hunger, insatiable hunger. I grit my teeth and endure the pain of hunger. Oh! There is a group fighting lions there. I¡¯ll help them and ask for lion meat in exchange. Well something is better than nothing. Wait, there is a cute girl there. She is using mana externally and in the form of fire! Before I went into the forest people was able to use mana internally like body strengthening and such. Let me try it. I try to draw a little mana to my hands and scream, ¡°Firebolt! Firebolt!¡± Well of course it doesn¡¯t work. But it was worth trying. I start going there. I wasn¡¯t using mana for the past fights because I am¡­uh¡­¡­.. you know? Dieting. Well to be honest I forgot how to use it. Well, did I even learn it? Damn. I must learn using magic. Can that Joker use magic, I wonder? Well enough monologue, now I ready my sword and stab through a lions ribs. Another lion bites my sword and I kick it and draw my sword from the ribs. The lion is attacking me again and I take out my dagger and throw it at its face and distract it. No later than that I thrust my sword in the thorax of the lion and it dies. The group is also doing well. They are focused on killing the lions. I killed 4 lions and hid their corpses behind a nearby tree. I go in front of the group and took out another dagger and dual wield it with my sword and start killing. The group asks me, ¡°Who are you?¡± ¡°I am Kirito, a wandering solo swordsman. HAHAHAHAHA!¡± Well there is my joker syndrome. I am wearing a mask btw. I look at the cute red haired girl and ask her, ¡°How do you use it? Mana externally that is.¡± She looks at me like she looks at a newbie. What I saved you guys, you know? ¡°Well you feel the mana coming out from your body and you mix it with the element you are compatible with. The elements exist everywhere.¡± She answers. ¡°Oh¡± I did not understand shit. ¡°I am Stella by the way.¡± The Oh-So-Pro girl answers. ¡°Jack¡± Answers the guy who looks like the leader. ¡°Makoto¡± Answers the glum guy in the back. ¡°Well thank you for assisting us.¡± Said the leader. ¡°Don¡¯t mention it. And thank you for the tip on magic. Miss Oh-So-p*Cough*Stella¡± A slip of tongue. After that I slip away from the group. And take the lions corpses with me. With this I have secured my food of the rest of the journey, and I might not need to go the tavern for a week. A big money save. I eat burned lion meat as lunch and start returning to the city again. . . . Ah! Finally I am back! Without wandering around any longer I head to the hotel and take a bath in my room. Afterwards I go to sleep. ¡®I will take rest for a few days!!!¡¯ Or so I thought. The next day I received a request from the guild to visit the guildmaster. DAMN IT. Feeling annoyed I head to the guild. I go at the guild and go at the reception at once. And suddenly someone calls me from behind. ¡°Miss me?¡± NOOOoooooOOOOOooooOOO! The JOKER! ¡°Ah, h-hello.¡± I greet ¡°I searched for you day and night, but you seem to be in fright. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Nice poetic joke, ISN¡¯T IT!!??¡± That is a good poem though. HAHAHAHAHA. That man is influencing me in the bad way, or¡­is it? HAHHAAHAHAHAHAHA. I should stop the ¡®J¡¯ syndrome for now. ¡°H-Hahahahahaha. Yeah, v-very funny.¡± I agree with him. ¡°I know right. Well gotta go lad. Duty calls. Hehe.¡± Saying that he goes away. W-well anyway I head towards the reception table and ask the receptionist politely, ¡°The guild master has summoned me.¡± ¡°Oh Vlad-kun, right?¡± Why add a ¨Ckun with it? ¡°Yes.¡± I reply. The receptionist is quite hot it seems. ¡°Head to the waiting room and the master will call you.¡± ¡°Okay. However who is that Joker I see every time I come here.¡± ¡°That is joker-san and his name is a mystery. He joined the guild way before me. But he is very strong. He takes care of 5 star requests by himself.¡± She replied. Again why the ¨Csan? ¡°Oh thanks for the info. What is your name by the way?¡± I ask. ¡°Mia Farenheart.¡± Damn that¡¯s a noble name. I wonder how my chances with her are. After that I head to the waiting room and start waiting for the guild master. Ah there is another person waiting for the guild ma- WAIT ISN¡¯T IT MISS OH-SO-PRO FROM YESTERDAY!? Is this fate or is this a sign?

It is like a famous phrase , ¡®Water water everywhere, but not a drop of drink to spare.¡¯ Well I start waiting from the guild master again. _________________________________________________________________________________ Guys Author here.
