SLW Chapter 13 : Winterfell

The guards, still frozen in shock, could barely comprehend what they were witnessing. One of them muttered, “That… that thing is unnatural.” 

Aeron turned to them, his smirk returning. “He’s mine now.” 

As if on cue, Garm turned his massive head toward the guards and let out a low, menacing growl. The men flinched, but Aeron waved a hand dismissively. “Relax. He won’t harm you. Not unless I tell him to.” 

The guards exchanged uneasy glances b...

SM/DC Chapter 13 : The Laughing End

Arthur clenched his jaw, shaking off the doubt creeping into his mind. He had to focus. The mobs were endless, and the Joker was playing him, forcing him to react rather than act. Then it hit him the detonator. That was the key. 

As another wave of mobs charged at him, Arthur feigned exhaustion, letting his movements slow. The Joker tilted his head, curious but amused. "Getting tired, are we? Don’t worry, I’ll keep the laughs coming!" 

Arthur smirked inwardly. He wai...

SLW Chapter 12 : Garm, The Shadow Direwolf

Aeron tightened his grip on his reins, his awkwardness forgotten in the face of this primal threat. He could feel his shadow soldiers stir within him, their presence a steady reassurance against the terror creeping up his spine.

“This is no coincidence,” he muttered to himself, his mind racing. “The gods are laughing at me.”

One of the guards raised his sword, his voice trembling as he shouted, “Back! Stay back, you beasts!”

The direwolf took a step forward...

SM/DC Chapter 12 : Arthur vs Joker

Arthur watched in shock as the woman's figure twisted grotesquely. Her limbs contorted unnaturally, her skin turning pale and almost sickly white. Her hair shifted into two colors: one side a bright, obnoxious pink, the other a deep, electric blue. A wide, deranged grin stretched across her face, smudged lipstick forming a ghastly smile.

Arthur squinted, disbelief etched on his face. "Harley Quinn?" he muttered.

Harley twirled a massive, oversized mallet out of nowhere, giggli...

SLW Chapter 11 : a Direwolf

The ship swayed gently as it cut through the dark, cold waters of the bay of Ice. The moon hung high above, casting its silver light on the waves and illuminating the deck where Aeron stood, leaning casually against the ship’s rail. The chill wind of the North bit at his skin, but it was nothing compared to the storm that had been raging within him since he left Bear Island. His cloak fluttered behind him, and his shadow—the one that hid so much more than it revealed—stretched long and ...

SM/DC Chapter 11 : A Familiar Laugh.

The first wave was nearly upon him. Their footsteps were erratic, their wild shrieks growing louder. Arthur steeled himself, planting his feet firmly on the cracked asphalt. The blade of his greatsword caught the faint light, casting a sharp glint that seemed to warn the oncoming horde. 

Arthur's first swing with the Greatsword of the Lowborn was both calculated and brutal. The blade arced through the air with deadly grace, slicing cleanly through the first charging enemy as though...

SM/DC Chapter 10 : The Hundred Floors of Fate.

As Arthur reached the heart of the abandoned slums, the silence around him was deafening. The decaying ruins of the forgotten district loomed on all sides, their jagged edges silhouetted against the faint glow of distant city lights. The faint hum of the key in his pocket grew louder, resonating deep in his chest. His steps slowed, his eyes scanning the empty space around him. 

"This must be it," he muttered, his voice barely above a whisper. 

Taking the key out of his p...

SM/DC Chapter 9 : The Tower's Call

Arthur finished his final set of squats and sit-ups, his breath heavy but steady, a testament to the weeks of conditioning he had pushed through. Looking around at the sidelines, he could hear the whispers. "He's been at it for days. A whole week now, nonstop on the track," one person murmured in awe. 

Another voice chimed in, "I told you he was training to join the Olympics, man. Guy’s built different." 

Arthur rolled his eyes, half amused, half exhausted by the const...

SM/DC Chapter 8 : The Bane of the Unworthy

Arthur stood over him, breathing slightly heavier now, but still calm. His eyes moved back to the woman, who was now staring at him with a mix of awe and fear. The alley was silent once more, save for the distant hum of the city and the soft, panicked breathing of the woman.   

Arthur walked over to her, his expression unreadable. 

“You okay?” he repeated, his tone gentler now. 

She nodded, her voice shaky. “I I don’t know what to say...”&n...

SM/DC Chapter 7 : Fury in the Alley

Arthur stepped out of the school building, the weight of the day settling on his shoulders. It had been an eventful one. ‘Meeting Raven, checking out my powers...’  His thoughts were a storm, but as he stepped into the bustling streets, the momentary chaos of his surroundings helped ground him. ‘Still, beyond that... I didn’t notice anyone else who seemed out of the ordinary.’ 

He couldn’t shake the lingering doubt Raven’s words had sparked...

Arthur with a sigh, he shook his head, his feet following her without a second thought. This was no longer about getting through the day or finishing his quest. Something about her—about this situation felt too important to ignore. 

The track was just ahead, an open stretch of pavement surrounded by the wide, green expanse of the field. The sound of the students’ footsteps seemed muffled as Arthur’s thoughts raced. ‘What does she want with me?’

SM/DC Chapter 5 : A Mysterious Girl

The class was quiet as the teacher attempted to pick up where they left off, scribbling equations on the whiteboard. Arthur sat near the back, his eyes unfocused as he tried to process the events of the day, still caught between the reality of his situation and his newfound abilities. 

But then, a voice cut through his thoughts. 

"Hey, Arthur, isn't it?" 

Arthur looked up. The voice came from the kid sitting in front of him, a slightly scruffy-looking boy with...

SM/DC Chapter 4 : Jump City

As the car cruised through the bustling streets of Jump City, Arthur’s gaze shifted to the signboards flashing by. The bright advertisements, local restaurant names, and the unmistakable skyline of a city caught between the mundane and the extraordinary gave him a strange sense of déjà vu. 

‘Jump City?’ His brow furrowed slightly as the name clicked in his mind. ‘Wait... isn’t that where—’ 

His thoughts were interrupted by the sudde...

SM/DC Chapter 3 : A World of Heroes and Lies

Arthur made his way to the dining room, still grappling with the oddity of his situation. It wasn’t until he stepped into the expansive space, the polished wooden floors reflecting the soft glow of an ornate chandelier, that a new thought struck him. 

The house was massive. Too massive. The kind of place he’d only seen in magazines or TV shows back in his original life. His gaze swept over the elegant furnishings, the curated paintings on the walls, and the finely set ...

Arthur blinked several times, his mind refusing to process what he was seeing. His heart thudded in his chest. 

“What... what is this?” he muttered aloud, reaching out with a trembling hand to touch the screen. His fingers brushed against the air, but the screen didn’t disappear—it remained, hovering just in front of him like some kind of digital apparition. 

He pulled his hand back quickly, his heart racing. The words on the screen seemed to pulse, urging him to...

SM/DC Chapter 1 : Chosen by the Unknown.

Arthur leaned against the polished railing of the cruise ship, his eyes gazing out over the endless expanse of the ocean. The cool night breeze tugged at his clothes, carrying with it the faint scent of saltwater. He had always wanted to do this cruise across the open sea, free from the mundane grind of his everyday life. It was a dream he’d had for years, and now that it was finally happening, he couldn’t help but feel a rush of satisfaction.

SLW Chapter 10 : First Shadow Squad

Lord Mormont gave Aeron a small, approving nod before gesturing to the map on the table. “I want you to inform Lord Stark of what has happened here. He will see to it that this incursion is dealt with properly. You can set sail at once.” 

“Lord Eddard?” Aeron asked cautiously, testing the waters. 

At this, Mormont let out a low chuckle, a hint of amusement flickering in his eyes. “Of course not, boy. I wouldn’t send you to King’s Landing, not unless I had a...

SLW Chapter 9 : Audacity and Authority

Aeron’s mind went blank. This was not something he had been prepared to see. 

The girl grinned mischievously, clearly amused by Aeron’s shock. She leaned in closer, her breath warm against his skin, and playfully brushed a lock of her hair over her shoulder. “Didn’t know you could fight,” she teased, her voice lilting with mock surprise. “I patched you up, you know. Could’ve sworn you were about to meet the gods.” 

Aeron, still flustered, struggled to fin...

SLW Chapter 8 : A New Power Awakened.

The great hall of Bear Island buzzed with the low murmur of voices, the flickering torchlight casting long shadows across the stone walls. Lord Mormont sat at the head of the table, his stern gaze sweeping over the men gathered before him. The recent attack on their shores weighed heavily on the room, and the air was thick with tension. 

“We drove them off, but not without cost,” one of the men, a grizzled veteran with a scar running down his cheek, muttered as he leaned forwar...

SLW Chapter 7 : Arise.

As they neared the keep, the situation grew even more dire. The heavy doors, their only refuge, were slow to lower, and the pirates took advantage, pushing forward with renewed vigor. Aeron, staying close to Lord Mormont, felt a desperate sense of survival driving his every move. The sounds of battle blurred into a cacophony, and the world narrowed to the immediate, overwhelming need to stay alive. 

Suddenly, out of the corner of his eye, Aeron saw a pirate charging at Lord Mormont...

Panic surged through Aeron as the bell's tolling filled the air. He glanced around, his breath quickening. “Oh gods, they’re already here...” he muttered under his breath, the weight of the moment pressing down on him. 

His eyes darted toward the sea, and that’s when he spotted them three ships emerging from the mist, their hulking forms cutting through the waves with an eerie silence. But something about them was off, something that even Aeron, in his frantic state, could ...

SLW Chapter 5 : The Lowborn Sword

Aeron's pulse quickened as the realization sank in. Ironborn… The word reverberated in his mind, the implications hitting him like a wave crashing against the rocks. The quest of the system wasn't just some vague task; it was connected to those men, raiders who had carved with blood through the lands of Westeros. 
 
'They are about to raid.' His whisper was lost in the dim noise of the tavern, but the shock stuck around, making his grip on the mug tighten. Of all the quests....

It sliced through the trees; the biting wind seemed to snake its way under Aeron's ragged clothes, leaving an uneasy sense of cold gnawing at his bones. He drew the tattered remains of his cloak about him, closer over his shoulders, maiming their inadequacy at keeping out the cold. The translucent screen in front of him flickered once more, the timer at the corner continuing its relentless countdown: 23:47:32. 
 
Aeron clenched his fists, his breath fogging in the frigid air. ...

His eyes locked on a flapping banner with the green cloth bearing the unmistakable black silhouette of a bear. It was as if a fist had just struck his chest.

Bear Island was the seat of the powerful House Mormont, whose people were as unyielding and hardened as the island. The house of the Mormonts was proud and very loyal, but their lands were very, very far from the south—all but...

The odor of hay filled his nostrils, mingled with sharp stench from manure and damp wood. He let out a low groan as he stirred, feeling the rough, prickly texture of straw beneath him. His body ached with a stiffness in his muscles as if he had slept in the most uncomfortable position possible. Slowly, he opened his eyes to squint against the faint morning light filtering through the gaps in the wooden walls around him.

SLW Chapter 1 : Reincarnation

Here I am, 19 already, and all of my time has been wasted on this laid-back fantasy game not really a getaway because of life, but a waste of time, drawn from it. The irony is staggering; the fact that I'm here at all is laughable trapped in a ridiculous world of dragons, magic, and noble quests. At least I had moderation in view I must have thought so before I pursued the last fantasy novel and learned some obscure, made-up language. Maybe I'd impress someone, find that elusive connection.

Chapter 43 : A Welcome to Inazuma

Orion stirred in his sleep, enveloped by a comforting darkness that felt both familiar and strangely inviting. Just as he began to drift deeper into his dreams, a sudden, jarring knock echoed against his forehead—a sharp, blunt fist meeting skin.

"Hey! Wake up!

Orion sprang upright, eyes blinking against the lack of light, golden eyes narrowing sharply on the figure looming over him. Standing there was a young man with fiery ginger hair and dull blue eyes a sheepish grin plaste...

Chapter 42 : Surtalogi's Offer 2

Surtalogi walked over, the soft echo of his steps filling the space between them. He stopped just inches from Orion, his towering presence imposing but not oppressive. His violet eyes bore into Orion’s with an unwavering calm, but there was something deeper in his gaze—an understanding of the turmoil raging within. 

"It is wise of you not to trust me," Surtalogi said, his voice low and deliberate. "Or anyone else for that matter." His lips curved into a subtle smile, almost as ...

"The third," he finally concluded, his voice full of finality, "is long dead and their remains were used to create sources of power they called a Gnosis, a tragic thing. so their time is at an end, and they no longer walk amongst us."

The statement brought a pang of loss in Orion, for which he wasn't sure why. Probably because he was part of something way older and bigger than himself-a lineage of beings who had gone through trials and dangers he could hardly imagine. Now he carried tha...

Skirk came to a dead stop, almost, the air between them crackling with Anticipation. She swiveled onto Orion, her violet eyes hard and calculating, weighing him down where he sat. "We talk here, Orion," she said, voice smooth but lined with something else-delighted curiosity, maybe, or even anticipation. "I'll tell you how I found you, but first, I want you to stay put for a second." 
 
Orion raised an eyebrow, feeling the almost instant change in her mood. The next moment Ski...
