In an underground cavern, two-miles west of Quena, most of the village members were hiding from the terrible weather outside. Over four-hundred Fox-Tribe were living in a tunnel that was fairly short, yet incredibly wide; the walls, floor, and ceiling were covered with huge white crystals. Continue reading
When Demil jumped down into the vault, she immediately felt a burning sensation on her palm, so she quickly opened it and read “Congratulations; you have successfully exterminated the bandits and completed Luna’s quest within the optimal conditions! You have been rewarded with three-thousand, five-hundred favor points for killing over two-thousand grunts; the officers and clan-leader had a combined bounty of nine skill-points, giving you a total of twelve!” Continue reading
Unlike a certain bear, Demil was able to easily discover all of the incredibly useful aspects of her newly acquired Lunar seal. After reading through the intro in a few seconds, she immediately activated the ‘map’ function. Continue reading
Demil was sitting cross-legged on the stone-floor of an incredibly hot, steam-room; her long and thick tail was slowly squirming around, behind her back. The walls and ceiling were made out of concrete that was mixed with black-mithril powder, to create an environment of intense mana-density within that enclosed space. Continue reading
The tiger-girl, squirrel-woman, bear-man, and female deer-centaur stared at the mysterious, giant, human nudist. Although, since none of them were wearing any clothing, it wasn’t her naked body that they were worried about. Continue reading
The colossal triangular arena looked like a giant arrowhead, pointing towards The Forest of Corruption. Directly behind it was a massive two-hundred meter tall skyscraper, with thousands of nearly unbreakable black-mithril reinforced, glass-windows. Continue reading
Several gunshots from small caliber rifles rang-out, and a deafening roar resounded from the colossal beast. At a distance, it might have seemed like a handful of mice were scurrying around a black-feathered rooster; yet upon closer inspection, those pine-trees that surrounded them, were in fact, absurdly large.

Okay, I’ve been a little hesitant to start releasing these chapters, because of the writing equivalent of stage-fright… but, I think that it’s about time I start posting them. I’ve written nine chapters so far, and I think there will probably be one or two more before volume one of “Questing” is completed, so hopefully people will like it.
I think that the disclaimer for “Immortal Soul” is sufficient for this story as well, because it’s relatively mature. There hasn’t been any real sexual content so far, but there is quite a bit of profanity in the dialogue; there’s a bit of gore, though probably not that much. Aside from that, it’s in third person POV so if you dislike that style of writing, you probably won’t like “Questing.”
The first volume of this story takes place between V-4 Ch-5 and Ch-6 of “Immortal Soul” so if you haven’t read up to that point, it may be difficult to understand some of the settings. Welp, here it goes…
When I saw the new contest on Royal Road, I really wanted to enter it… but then reality set in rofl. For anyone who has read anything that I’ve written, you should know by now that I honestly can’t stand censorship. I do in fact censor myself to a certain degree, otherwise there would be: hardcore and detailed sex scenes, incredibly unnecessary gore scenes, lots of romance every chapter, more weirdness than most people would be able to stand or understand, and overall… it would take a lot more time for me to get anywhere in the actual plot.
However, I feel that by following those tight restrictions on the contest, the actual story will lose a lot of its luster. Also, since this is technically a side-story, that means I can leave out a lot of important information regarding various subjects that I’ve already covered a great many times throughout the story so far.
The tentative title is “Questing” and just like the name suggests, the main cast will be a small group of noob adventurers, some of which have actually been in the main story to some extent. It starts around the time chapter 5 ended, which was roughly 4 months before the chapter “Cataclysm” but I have no idea how much time will pass throughout the side-story.
To be completely honest, I’ve always been hesitant about writing side-stories, mainly because on Royal Road, people typically don’t read them or actually demand that you stop wasting your time writing about something that isn’t the “Main Story” from the “Main Character’s” perspective. Even for “Harem Reaper” where I did write around 7 incredibly short little stories, each of which took me less than an hour or so to write, I remember their views being absurdly small and quite a few people insisted that I shouldn’t have wasted my time on them.
Anyway, if anything, this might be closer to a spin-off type of situation, or perhaps it may actually end up being so important that I deem it either Chapter Six, or the interlude of this volume. Another reason why I’ve decided to write this particular side-story, is that I haven’t written in 3rd person perspective for a whole six months… it’s been a while, and I’ve hesitated in writing 3rd person main-story content because of that.
It should be finished within a week, and be 7k to 15k words long, it will be similar to a “One-Shot” in a sense… but depending on the popularity, I may write a sequel or two. I personally never read one-shots, because I hate that feeling after they’re over, so don’t expect everyone to die in the end roflmao… or at least, don’t expect them to stay dead even if they do die :P. I’ve always hated tragedies, but aside from that, in the “Immortal Soul” story, I’ve clearly stated that “Death is a lie, a trick, an illusion, a fantasy… but suffering is real.” (The Archangel 11, Luna)
Essentially, dying isn’t the worst possible outcome, and things don’t often go very well for a lot of people… plus, it’s not nearly as funny when everything is all rainbows and sunshine. Even the most adorable puppy-dog and kitty-cat, will still shit all over the fucking place, and mark your carpet as their territory.
If you’re anything like me, then this video will make you daaaw~ pretty hard lol. Puppies and Kittens Falling Asleep
