Novels by SHANAYA

The Rancia empire prospered. Those terrible times when the Ransians fearfully expected the birth of their own children are far behind. With the accession to the throne of the new emperor Claude re Tigras the First and Empress Daisyre re Tigras, the people stopped living in fear and excitement. Now every Ransian, human or not, had the same right to life and happiness. The persecution of non-humans stopped, because the ruling family also did not belong to the human race, mixed marriages began to appear more often, and cities grew. Life became calmer, now the imperials were not afraid to travel between cities, risking being in the mouth of some monster. All creatures, of course, did not disappear, but as a result of a number of innovations introduced by Claude from the experience of his mercenary life, they greatly facilitate the fight against these creatures, forced them to go away from human habitation or hide deep in their holes. Man again became the dominant race on the planet, and e

- Oh, those boys. Alita purred as she slid off her man's lap and sat down on Claude's bed. “In general, sweetheart, when we burst into the hall, we only made it to the finale, when you, with completely wild eyes, rushed towards the door until you stretched out on the floor, not having reached us a few steps. And then Alexander quickly stepped forward, ordering that you be lifted and taken to the imperial chambers and called for a doctor, and then he explained to everyone present that according to some ancient law, I don’t know where he dug it up, you become the next emperor, taking the place of the deposed you ruler. We didn't even believe what we heard. You are Claude and the emperor. It sounded kind of unbelievable. And to be honest, they also managed to catch this cold, so they thought it was the result of a fever. But as it turned out, no, they heard right and you were really glorified as the future emperor. He cleverly organized everything here. So even the few dissatisfied witne

- Infections... It's people like me that you call an infection?- Yes. To be honest, I even liked you a little, not often non-humans managed to hide from my eye for so long, and your stupid principles ... naive, frankly childish, but noble, made me smile. However, the fact that you are a monster cannot be changed and you have no other destiny than to die.“It’s like seeing which one of us is a monster.— Ha! Have you ever looked at yourself in the mirror?“Appearance says nothing about a person. Yes, my eyes and ears are different from human, but there is much less blood on my hands than on yours.- What are you talking about. Turn around. All these people could live if not for you.“My fault for their death is no less than the one who set them on me. At least I was only defending myself, not sending them to their deaths.They died because they were doing their duty.Or because they were left with no choice.This conversation did not lead them anywhere, without bringing clarity or sat

And now only three of them remained, the horses carried the tired mercenaries forward, whipping dust into the air and crumbling the age-old stone into the sand. Two hot streams of steam escaped the air from the wide, nervously quivering nostrils of the driven horses. No one believed that they would catch up with the warrior, only hoping that the emperor would not realize his terrifying plan immediately upon the arrival of his assistant. On the horizon in front of them rose the towers of San Pen, brightening up the dull landscape with each kilometer growing higher and higher, delighting and frightening at the same time. Claude did not know what awaited them in the capital, for the first time he did not have at least some slightly thought-out plan, only one desire to be in time, not to be late, to stop. Inside, everything was shrinking from a bad premonition, but the guy drove away uninvited thoughts. You should never take on a job with a gloomy attitude to its failure, otherwise, every

Leata's voice broke through her rage-clouded consciousness. "Finally!" the guy exhaled, looking at the best thing to do in order to retreat without consequences for his health and life. It was not far to go, the creatures had already almost pressed him to the failure, from which the mercenary was separated by several steps, he needed only a couple of three seconds to get the coveted vial and jump over to the other side. Taking a step back, he seized the sword more comfortably and threw the dagger at the creature closest to him, slashing the blade across the entire expanse available to him and forcing the creatures to retreat a couple of steps. Here are his seconds. Rushing back, he removed the blade with one hand, and with the other he felt for the coveted cork. Which is specially marked so as not to be confused with others. The previous experience of using this remedy in the battle with sectroses taught him decently, but there was no time to sip drop by drop. Let it be what will be.

Aiyana, hurry up. Something is not happening.- One more second. Here it is! - the girl purred enthusiastically, pressing the lever near the capsule, and completely not noticing what was happening around.- We have no time. It's time to go.- Not! Until I find it, I won't leave.- Crap! Is it worth your life?- Yes!Discouraged by the answer, the mercenary fell silent for a few seconds. That's devotion! She could be admired if he and his comrades of life did not depend on her.Tell me what to look for! - finally, unable to stand it, he grunted, finally entering the room and feeling the cold enveloping from all sides.- You don't know the language.But I can see. I'll find it by sight. Show me or we'll all stay here.She did not argue further, obediently showing what symbols she had to find. There were few of them, at most four, of which one was a letter, and the rest resembled modern numbers. It was not even a name, but rather a code. He moved along the nearest shelving unit, running

- I see! God interrupted me. "When you came for the first time, I took a cast of the weaves and did the same now. You've gotten stronger. Now you control the manifestation of the infection... Well, well, well... Strikingly! This is the primitive, crude, but effective magic of the flesh, multiplied by the infinity of the Abyss. And, unsurprisingly, she only works with aliens to this world like you. Any local curse would devour in a matter of days, transforming it into a thoughtless creature and completely subordinating it to the Plague Pestilence. But not you! Your natural capacity to regenerate is stronger than a curse...And if I lose that primitive ability, it's going to get a lot harder for me."You won't lose it," Hippopotamus said. "Rebuild the temple, and I will have enough strength to give you something like this.I'm not going to get there in the next three months, Sleeper. The island you were talking about is outside the territory where I, an alien, can be. And the plague pla

However, we did not manage to bite into it. Leach surrounded himself with an impenetrable veil of orange marev and howled long. The sound that announced the surroundings chilled the blood in my veins. The call was answered: the dead and skeletons crawled out of the ground, and in the forest a piercing banshee assured. Ed was wrong, the boss had add-ons.- Bom, take it away! Yew, join the boss for now! Krawler shouted. - You have extra damage to the undead! Scythian, what can you do?- Don't let the Bomb Truck get distracted, I'll take the adds on myself! Yissa, I'm not sick!I activated the curse of the undead again and ran in a spiral, pulling the dead onto myself. Levels 14-15, regular mobs, but a lot. I crushed the bones and punched the gaping holes in their bodies, tearing off the skulls of skeletons with a hammer and blowing the rotting flesh of zombies to shreds. The Cretes laid them down immediately, after the usual blows they had to finish them off, but I did not stop. A minut

At the sight of Nagual, the guys were not confused. Killing the non-resisting "threat", they had to tinker, but the liquidation procedure went as it should. "I banish you from Disgardium forever!" exclaimed Hang pathetically, sticking a dagger into the heart of the dead Nagual in those few seconds before the corpse was yet incarnate.Crawler, Ed's new character, named after the endless crawling of caves and tunnels, received some money from the developers, an epic cape and a constant bonus of + 10% to the speed of gaining experience. But the involuntary preventions Infect and Bomb Carrier took bonuses more seriously: a folio of fire magic, a folio of light magic, ten thousand gold, a scalable epic sword and a similar dagger.As a result, this became the starting capital of the Dementora clan, which Tissa soon joined. Krawler became a fire mage, Tissa became a light mage, and the future classes of Infect and Bomb Carrier were affected by the epic blades divided between them.- Amazing

- I don't understand why he's going to? Could have come to me, Crowler muttered as he followed the Bomb Truck. - Or to the guys, if you don't want to go to me."First of all, your grandmother doesn't love me," Tissa began to make excuses. - Secondly, her father will start calling her first, as she did that time. Thirdly, Malik has a full house of relatives, and in such bedlam only people like Infect can survive. Hang, by the way, is no better, only the still smelly spices all smelly!- Easier, Sister! Bomb Truck rebuked. - When you devoured dim sum and pork in honey sauce, something I did not hear from you such complaints!"Oh well, you," Tissa shrugged off. "And most importantly, I have already promised Alex's parents that I will return. Uncle Mark wanted to talk about Dis, and Aunt Helen said she would cook a special dinner and an abyss of stories about the little Sheppard. So the choice here is unequivocal!We walked out to an abandoned hut. According to Bombovoz, it periodically t

- A lot, Mr. Whitaker. The fight was not easy.- Oh, believe me, I have the information. It is no coincidence that the reward has been waiting for its heroes for so long! But let me conclude, as I said, I am in a hurry, and I still have another briefing with the guests who first came to Tristad. Take the reward for the ogre man-eater. He spoiled the nerves of our farmers and collectors of unusual healing herbs, which, as luck would have it, grow only in those parts where Wat'al fished.The bags evaporated from the palm of my hand as soon as I poured the gold coins into my backpack. I've never felt so rich here or in the real world."Thank you very much for participating in the life of the city, Scythian," the adviser said goodbye. - Keep up the good work, and I'll find you more entertaining if you're interested in becoming even more useful.At the entrance to the building, "dementors" were already waiting for me. The crawler quietly uttered:-Extend your hand. I'll put in an epic, rem

"You're as adventurous as your father," mom liked to say. - If you are seriously interested in something, then you give yourself to it with your head and for a long time ... until the next hobby."Now I'm very interested in Dysgardium. Enthusiasm and courage were superimposed on the anger of Wesley Chow's cheeky behavior, multiplied by an innate heightened sense of justice, warmth felt for the "dementors", and affection for Tisza. But still, before letting my heart make a decision, I calculated everything. At least, I tried, based on the available data and logical conclusions.What I had in mind about big po was based on a lot of "ifs." Too big. For success, many factors must converge, and some of them were so far only hypotheses. Nevertheless, the idea of competing with the Axiom was breathtaking.After school, Tisza and I flew to the guys at the regional hospital. We met in a park full of centuries-old oak trees, on a serene alley by the fountain, which, unfortunately, did not work

- And if you just give the crossbow? Yura murmured.- On the one hand, the possession of this crossbow is really a big hemorrhoids, - Genghis Khan nodded, - and on the other hand, incredible luck and a chance to get out of this world twenty years earlier. But in order to take advantage of this chance, you don’t have to “wait for the weather by the sea”, but take “hands in feet” and go, as these boobies say - swing.“But it doesn’t seem so bad here,” Zhenya said thoughtfully. “At least as long as the said Guardians are pleased with you.Genghis Khan shook his head.- You know, I envy you a little: the first ten years in this world are in many ways a happy time, albeit full of severe trials. But man is a complex creature, not only pain and suffering move us forward. With every year spent in this place, indescribable nostalgia, longing, longing for the place lying there ahead will grow stronger in you. I don't want to say that every day will eventually turn into something bad, no. But th

- Zheka, Chechens in the city! Gather brother!True, what does the philosopher have to do with it and where to take the mentioned lads, the gopnik did not specify.Genghis Khan sighed, snapped a cunning crossbow from his belt, put the weapon on the bed next to Tuen, and he himself took a free chair, of which there were several in the room, put it next to the bed, sat down and, raising his hand, waved to everyone:- Hi.Kolya, meanwhile, was blushing like cancer, realizing that he was slightly frostbitten.- Valuable advice "on the track", - Genghis Khan continued, - if the Guardians offer something, it is better to agree. But do not rush to do what is proposed according to their scenario: these guys will definitely try to drag you into the very ass. Try to work with your head and go to your goal in your own way. Which, of course, will not always succeed.What are martial skills? - Zhenya immediately clarified the information on the reward for the quest.Genghis Khan, without getting u

Your mother's time in this world is coming to an end.Guardians offer you a task:Reach Ozatorga in the company of the lost ones who will leave the city in the near future, and we, the Guardians, will ensure your meeting with your mother.The consequence accompanying the acceptance of the task is the acquisition of a special status, the temporary inclusion of lost souls in the system.1) Accept the task.2) Reject the job.**Of course, she should have consulted with her father, but Erita immediately realized that all this was superfluous, since she made her choice at the moment when she read the text to the end. Having experimented a little, she chose the desired menu item:**1) Accept the task.**In vain did the girl think that her misadventures were over, the event that happened a moment later divided her whole life into before and after. And although the Guardians made every effort available to them to facilitate the process of transformation, the lousy experience was far beyond

Dietrich, having analyzed his part of the work, was frankly depressed. Since Paul and Genghis Khan got formidable, but, in fact, single targets, and his opponents "spread" over a very large area. Fortunately, this square was constantly squeezed by the city guard, but they also added new hemorrhoids - as if not to knock down someone outside and not to spoil valuable property.Without hindrance, passing the place of deployment of the defenders of the city, the German hurriedly walked out to the port facilities. Stopping in the middle of a dark port street, he assessed the situation. At the moment, the "front line" between the pirates and the defenders of the city passed in a place where hangars and warehouses tightly adjacent to each other ended and residential buildings began. The port was a semi-closed territory, into which several wide streets led, but at the same time, various small streets and lanes were completely absent. At night, guards were stationed at the exits of the port, w

Genghis Khan was rapidly approaching the western coast. Having parted with his comrades, he did not want to go down to the ground and was now moving towards his goal using exclusively the city roofs. In practice, jumping on tiles had two subtleties: first, it was necessary not to ruin the roof during repulsion, and second, it was necessary not to ruin it when landing. The one mentioned was bad. And the man consoled himself with the hope that for the sake of a great cause, a mountain of broken tiles would be forgiven him. Having shortened the path in this way and at the same time assessed the situation in the city, he very soon found himself on the coast.Here, standing by the embankment, Genghis Khan pulled back his sleeve from his wrist, revealing to the night an elegant silver bracelet covered with dense rows of reddish runes. Giving the artifact a mental command, he began to patiently peer into the darkness of the sea. Finally, the pirate ship snapped back with another salvo, revea

Fizruk disappeared. In his place, another, already middle-aged actor from a film about a sophisticated cannibal appeared, who ate other actors and especially loved gelatinous brains. And Yura was afraid of this actor.- Why not? The task of the Final Set is to help you get through the path to the end, to give strength that is inaccessible at the current level of development. Our meeting was not without fate, but if she drags you, then she only gives me strong advice, so don’t be arrogant. There was a place and commonality: it's funny - you and I are similar in a certain set of emanations, as a lion and a kitten are similar. And the last of the weighty ones - for some reason I wanted to play on the nerves of Vega and Zegero. Vega is the bearded man who gave the green light to your possession of the Fourth Treasure of Darkness. He and Zegero run the show here. Vega is nothing less than a galaxy, but not the one you think of. Zegero is the largest black hole in observable space. And a ra
