  • by Emily Thomas After killing all the centipedes, and summoning back his undead, Aldred finally calmed down. “You don’t like centipedes that much?” Mary asked. “It tickles my skin just by looking at them.” Bartrem laughed. “You’re a soldier, Aldred. You should fear nothing.” Aldred scratched his cheek, embarrassed. They continued to walk and killed a bunch of monsters on the way. There were traps as well. One of his undead stepped on a rock. Suddenly, a gigantic spear shot at him from the side. The…
  • by Emily Thomas “Quick, Aldred! Say the answer.” Aldred took a deep breath, hoping the answer was correct. “Family.” The dice clicked, and all the apes turned to dust, except for some corpses who luckily or unluckily missed the Sky Splitting Strike. The tall wall also sunk into the earth. Everyone was drenched in sweat because of the heat. Thankfully, the temperature became normal soon after, and the fog disappeared. “Thankfully you solved that riddle quick enough,” Bartrem said. “Otherwise we would…
  • by Emily Thomas Aldred smiled happily, satisfied with his new skills. It was such a waste not learning a martial art. If he learned them early, he could defeat any magicians by shocking them with his martial art. They would never expect him to get close and struck. Aldred laughed. He looked at his panel and wondered where he should put his 72 points to. He wanted to be a versatile fighter which mean he should mastered close range and long range skills. But each skill had their own ups and down. Fire bullets for example…
  • by Emily Thomas As Aldred climbed the mountain, some adventurer group decided to follow him. Aldred did not care about them. He believed that to climb this mountain, one should solve the riddle first. After a few hours of walking, Aldred entered some sort of hedge made from snow. He was boxed in between white walls. At first, he thought it was normal, but then he was presented with two directions. One to the left, one to the right. “It’s a hedge maze,” Aldred said. “But made out of snow instead.” Bartrem…
  • by Emily Thomas Aldred laughed. “I have more than fifty Gold ranks now.” “We should set up your army now. Choose who will lead the cavalry unit.” Aldred rubbed his chin. “For cavalry, I need someone fast and powerful. Will is a good choice, but I think he has a better role in the future. Let’s put Nicky in charge of the cavalry unit.” “What about Will?” Mary asked. “He will get his role later.” Mareona glanced at the cave. “Since we’re here, let’s check out the cave.” “Good idea.”…
  • by Emily Thomas Hundreds of undead stepped out from the black mist. They were ogres, wolves, humans, and monsters. After they were all out, the six Gold Rank undead came. They all bowed. Aldred was proud of his undead army. In total, he had 183 undead. Mary frowned. “Aldred, your undead regiment is too chaotic. They are all in random order with no specialization. This is fine for now, but in the future, if you don’t fix this, your undead might lose against a proper army.” Aldred scratched his head. “I…
  • by Emily Thomas Aldred made another hot bath and put a tent over the bath. They all entered dejectedly. Especially Mira. The boy wanted to calm her down, but he didn’t know how to. Mira felt her body turn weak and she fell asleep immediately. Aldred, Mareona, Sophia, and Mary looked at each other. They didn’t say anything but they knew that deep in their heart this was a moment of tragedy. Nobody wanted this or expected this to happen. But life had to go on, and so they slept. When morning came, Mira woke up…
  • by Emily Thomas Arthur pulled out his sword. The blade shone as bright as the sun, forcing Aldred to close his eyes. Arthur’s sword turned the dark sky into blue. Powerful killing intent exploded in all directions, waking everyone up and carving fear in their heart. The world trembled, and the sky dimmed, turning into night as the light condensed on the sword. With bloodshed eyes, Arthur pointed the sword at Aldred, sending a tiny beam of light that warped the space around it. He was precise in his control as he did…
  • by Emily Thomas After storing all the treasures in his divine dimension, Aldred looked at his dice and read the writing. “It protects from the harsh world; from rain and thunder, from claws and nails.” The boy shook his head. “My head hurts just by reading it. Can you guys figure it out?” They all tried to solve the riddle, but nothing worked. “It’s too vague. We need more clues.” “Pongo.” The penguin handed a small bottle to Aldred. “What is this?” Aldred opened the bottle and took out a…
  • by Emily Thomas Everyone was shocked to see Byron lose in less than 5 moves. Those who were shocked were vampires that come from Thignia. Some humans who knew Byron or were told about him were shocked as well. Byron gritted his teeth. “Save me!” His guards rushed forward, blocked the attack, and pulled him out. The statues did not move from their spot and simply stabbed their sword to the ground again, returning to their original posture. Aldred laughed. “What a loser. Now give me all of your treasures. As for…
