Reaching the weapon shop, the impression i received was different compared to the armory. Though it was not as glamorous , there were much more people streaming in and out of the shop. Weapons would always interest people, no matter what day and age. There were dozens and dozens of weapons showcased, each looking different and unique. From great axes …
House of Assassin
On the way back to the guild, i received a lot of dirty looks when walking down the streets. With my body with blood and grim, i was desperate for a nice warm bath. Picking up speed, i soon reached the guild. “Hi, i’ve completed the gold-ranked mission to subjugate the shadow panther. I’ll like to collect the reward.” “That …
The Hunter and the Prey (2)
I dashed through the forest, arriving about 100 meters away from the shadow panther. It was laying there, licking its paws and grooming itself.

The village itself was neither too big nor too small, it housed a population of around 500 citizens including both humans and demi-humans. Walking down the uneven …
Return
The Sun settled on the horizon, spewing its golden rays across the vast land. The yellowish glow illuminating the surrounding of what seems like an ancient castle, almost crumbling with its outer appearance rusted. It has endured the test of time spanning across millennia, and inside it, was filled with precious items and jewelry. Under the seemingly infinite wealth, in …
