Stranded Stranger Chapter Sixty-six: Demon Queen
The connection between Shawn and Cyrene was suddenly interrupted as a huge, black dragon with pointed scales made its way between them. The dragons were stunned when they realized it was their king, but he was no longer in his right mind and was corrupted by demons. "Who is that?" Ash used his tiny telescope to look at the figure who was standing in the back of the black dragon. "Is that Aimee?" Alice was surprised when she heard Ash. She borrowed his little telescope to see it herself and realized the little guy wasn't joking. "What is Aimee doing here?" Alice zoomed in the telescope to see it clearly and realized her friend was holding something. It was the broken dark gem that was divided into two. "Shawn, look at this!" Alice passed him the telescope. "How did this happen?" Shawn wondered. He thought that he had already broken the dark gem, but how could that assassin still use it, and now she has also gained control of the king of dragons? Aimee let out a devilish laugh—stari
Stranded Stranger Chapter One: Stranger
"Where am I?" Shawn wondered when he opened his eyes and found out he was lost in the middle of nowhere. It was a place he had never been; it wasn't familiar at all, and everything seemed different."What's going on here?" he asked again, seeing dust floating with the wind, creating a tornado. "What the hell? Is this a joke?" He screamed in shock and ran as the tornado became greater than he anticipated."Stop!" An unfamiliar girl, wearing a lilac shirt and pants, shouted at him. She had long, straight black hair and violet eyes that were sharp as daggers. She moved swiftly towards him and asked, "What are you doing here, stranger?""Stranger?" Shawn replied in a curious tone. "I don't know; I don't know what I am doing here. Am I not dead yet? Aren't you an angel fallen from heaven?" He lightly scratched his head and smiled like this was a joke before saying, "I think I'm lost.""What are you talking about? Of course you're lost; you might have been from another kingdom, because you
Stranded Stranger Chapter Two: Adventurer's Guild
Days before, Shawn was living an ordinary life on earth. He was a student at Jefferson High School. Just like other people, he had a low profile. He loved keeping things private, never posting on social media about what was going on in his life, and never trusting anyone, not even his own family.That day, about one o'clock in the afternoon, he and his best friend, Justin, were crossing the highway when a rushing ambulance suddenly appeared. His friend managed to survive, but he was hit and died on the spot. That ambulance didn't have a chance to bring him to a hospital; he was brought to a morgue instead.He would usually crack a joke to his classmates, telling them that if they were tired of their lives, they should not worry because there was free makeup in a funeral home, but he couldn't imagine or never expect that he would taste that free makeup first."Hang in there, Shawn!" were the last words he heard from his friend before everything turned dark. He wished he had lost his vi
Stranded Stranger Chapter Three: Forbidden Forest
Shawn was shocked by what he saw as he opened his eyes. Ava was inside his room, sleeping beside him, and they were hugging each other.He was dumbfounded for a while, then he quickly withdrew his arms and stood up to avoid being misinterpreted, but he didn't know what to do as his ugly thoughts began swirling around his head.He didn't know how this woman got inside his room; he couldn't recall anything. Was there something that happened between them?"You're awake?" Ava asked in a sleepy tone. She rubbed her eyelids and gazed at Shawn. "You looked shocked; is there something wrong?""Nothing, um, by the way, what are you doing in my room?" Shawn asked while holding a bolster."Your room?" Ava asked and looked around. "What am I doing here?" She suddenly stood up and walked towards Shawn, thinking about what happened last night. She couldn't even sleep because he kept snoring and squeezing her breasts.Shawn was surprised by what Ava did next. Her palm left a reddish mark on his skin
Stranded Stranger Chapter Four: Encounter
Shawn arrived at the front of the vast Forbidden Forest. He saw a placard nailed to a huge oak tree. It warned him to take care of the dangerous creatures such as creepers, which explode, skeletons that shoot arrows, zombies, and aggressive Endermen that might be strolling around.Without hesitation, Shawn began his journey to the forest. While walking, he glanced at the monochrome drawing Emma gave him before he left the capital. He started looking around for the thought that he might find what he was looking for.He found other plants such as nether wart, kelp, vines, poppy, azure bluet, oxeye daisy, rose bush, and tulips, but he hadn't seen any clover plants yet. He also encountered some slimes leaping around, but they weren't dangerous at all because of their low levels."It's too early to give up," Shawn reminded himself, and he continued his journey. He didn't expect that it would be so difficult to get one.As he walked in the woodland, he saw an orc approaching him from the bu
Stranded Stranger Chapter Five: Possession
It wasn't easy to take the clover leaves since there were many orcs watching over them. Without hesitation, Shawn did his best to help Alice kill them because it was his task after all, and he also wanted to become stronger.It was quite convenient to have the equipment he borrowed from the adventurer's guild, as he used it to attack the orcs and defend himself. He wasn't hurt due to his silvery-white armor, and he could fight the orcs using his sword.“Are you okay?" Alice asked and slashed an orc that growled behind her. She had fully mastered her skills as a superspeed, and killing those orcs was just a piece of cake for her, unlike Shawn, who was already struggling. “Do you need help? It seems like you can't defeat an average-size orc.""What? An average-size? How can you say that if it is the largest orc I have ever seen?" Shawn asked, his eyes widening in disbelief.Alice laughed at him mockingly and sneered, "Please step back, mister strange. Let me handle this ogre before it c
Stranded Stranger Chapter Six: Demonic Dragon
Florence Elmore told the old man that Ash was possessed due to his inability to control his power. It was natural that he couldn't resist Lynx's possession if he couldn't manipulate his skills, and there was only one solution he could think of to solve this problem."What did you say, master?" Ava asked as she suddenly stood up from her chair beside the table inside the dining room where they were having dinner."I respect your decision to let my brother join the Adventurer's Guild, but you should know how dangerous it could be for a kid like him," she added."Don't worry, Ava. I will protect your brother," Shawn said with a smirk on his face."No, I can't trust my brother's safety to a weak stranger like you. Besides, you can't even protect yourself from a single orc, so how can you protect him?" Ava asked in a worried tone."I will train harder and become immortal, so that you won't have to worry about your brother anymore," Shawn replied while slightly scratching his nape. He didn'
Stranded Stranger Chapter Seven: Overprotective
Earlier, Ash was walking unconsciously like a zombie in the kitchen when he got possessed. He took a knife from a cupboard; fortunately, the old man found him before he got himself killed. Ash fought with him, so the old man decided to tie him up and wait for Florence.Even though he was a strong sorcerer, the old man knew that he couldn't deal with a possessed person. All he could do was ask for help from an exorcist.Florence was known in their land for his ability to expel evil spirits from a person or even places. He also studied at the Land of Dusk Academy and became a master; then he earned a living by doing his passion.There were times when in almost every place there were possessions happening. If it weren't for him and his apprentice, they would never recover from that epidemic.Ava stood up and asked worriedly, "Dammit! Why didn't you inform me? He might have gone somewhere dangerous again."Ava knew that her brother wouldn't go somewhere without telling her, especially whe

Chapter Sixty-five: Flying Monsters
Shawn put the dark gem on the stone and broke it with his golden sword. As the gem got divided into two, the memories of Florence played back in his mind—the way he smiled, laughed, and played with them; those sarcastic things he used to say; his seriousness and strong will to help others—he was such a good elf, someone they could always rely on, and now that he was gone, they knew they wouldn't be able to find someone like him again. "Are you okay?" Ava asked, standing behind Shawn. "Although Florence is an elf, death is something we can't predict, and every one of us is going to die too." Shawn faced Ava and forced himself to smile, though tears were already forming within his eyes. He knew she was right; sometimes they get emotional if they only think about their friends deaths, forgetting that they, too, were going to die someday and perhaps they'd meet each other again. They had to be mentally and emotionally ready for the death of their loved ones. Aimee, on the other hand
Chapter Sixty-four: Resurrection
Florence woke up on his wooden bed upholstered with white bedsheets inside his room that was built inside a huge tree in the world of elves. He slowly stood up as he remembered what happened. He was so incapable of protecting the most valuable elven treasure, and he knew that his father would be mad at him. "Why did you allow that gem to be taken away? Don't you know that our lives depend on it?" Eldric asked, holding his wooden cane firmly, trying to hold himself back as he might accidentally strike his nephew for his mistakes. "I'm really sorry, uncle," Florence apologized, bowing his head more than forty-five degrees, showing how much regret he had for being so gullible and letting the demon lord take the gem of life when his father had already warned him not to let anyone touch it or tell anyone about it because it could attract power-thirsty people. "Your sorry can do nothing." Eldric sighed. "You have to go back to the world of humans and take it back. Our family has trusted
Chapter Sixty-three: Wiped Out
No matter how many times he had transformed into his hero mode, Shawn still found it exciting every time it happened because he knew something interesting was going to happen, and he felt like he was the main character of the story. His green t-shirt turned into silver armor, and he was now holding his golden sword. He hadn't had a satisfying fight recently, and his battle-maniac personality had been waiting for this opportunity. "I'm leaving the rest to you guys!" Shawn exclaimed before charging towards the demon lord. He swung his sword, ready to slash the demon lord with all his might, thinking that he would take the enemy down in one blow, but a strong force coming from the dark barrier when he landed a hit sent him flying back mid-air. "Shawn!" Ava exclaimed in a worried tone of voice. She was about to come and help him, but the bloodthirsty queen of bats blocked her way. "Where are you going? Your enemy is me!" Morgra asserted, licking her cheeks with her long black tongue,
Chapter Sixty-two: Life & Death
Everyone was stunned when the old man suddenly transformed into a feared demon—the ruler of all demons, the demon lord who could command every demon and monster. He had deliberately lured our heroes to his domain, where his most advanced monsters had gathered. "Who's that weirdo?" Ava asked, trying to lighten the tense atmosphere. "Do you know him, Shawn?" "It's the demon lord—the one we hunted in the past," Shawn replied. "Do you remember?" "The demon lord?" Ava repeated, confused. "But I thought he was already dead. You killed him, right?" "I did," Shawn said, frowning. "But... I don't know. Maybe he got reincarnated. After all, everyone else is here too, so that's not impossible." "He seems powerful enough to threaten us," Leo said, his body radiating a fiery, passionate aura. "I’ll never forgive anyone who mocks my friend's identity." Shawn frowned in confusion. If the demon lord had been pretending to be the old man all along, he should have already killed them. Why w
Chapter Sixty-one: The Revelation
Planinkins, also known as Aethermites, are thumb-sized creatures, but their size doesn't account for their massive cosmic powers. They have purplish skin and deep, one eye that resembled miniature galaxies. They were often misidentified as little cyclops. Each Planinkin has semi-transparent wings that allow them to fly in space. They were so powerful and could change their appearance anytime they wanted. However, they weren't allowed to enter any planets, as it was against their rules. They could only watch humans and monsters from a distance, wondering what it felt like to live inside an orb, especially in the planet called Earth where intelligent creatures reside. "Oh no! This couldn't be happening!" Nayari, one of the Planinkins, screamed when she saw two planets moving in the same axis and they were about to collide. The other Planinkins flew towards her to see what happened. Their eyes turned wide after seeing the two planets moving in the same axis against each other. They ha
Chapter Sixty: Advanced Monsters
The huge black dragon landed in the next city, where giant monsters were waiting. The six heroes immediately went to work to rescue the people. It was another intense battle where Alice could have ended her life. "Let's set this world on fire!" Leo exclaimed, throwing fireballs at the monsters. The monsters started screaming in pain as their bodies got burned. They struggled, trying to shake the fire off their bodies, but instead made it spread even more until they fell to the ground and died. Florence, on the other hand, had been thinking why the old man was so familiar, like she had met him before. He remembered someone as he watched him fight those monsters. An old friend. "He couldn't be him. Isaac couldn't have gotten this old too soon. Even Leo isn't that old yet. I must have mistaken it," Florence said to himself. "Are you alright?" Alice asked, noticing her elf friend behaved like he was lost in thought. "Um, yeah, I am," Florence replied. He saw the monsters coming towa
Chapter Fifty-nine: A Different Story
"Where is the old man?" Shawn asked when he noticed that Oregon didn't show up during their battle against the monsters. There were supposed to be seven heroes who saved the world from destruction, but there were only six of them since he didn't show up. "He probably hid somewhere where those media workers couldn't find him, take a picture, or record a video of him fighting against monsters. You already know that old man; he doesn't like attention and loves to do things without external validation," Ava explained. Shawn whistled using his fingers to call the dragon that immediately landed. Everyone was surprised how he could control such a huge dragon, but he didn't mind them. "Thank you so much for saving us! Please come back!" The people shouted at them for giving them hope during the monster outbreak. "Let's go, guys!" Shawn shouted, and his friends immediately ran towards him. Their mission in this place was over, but they knew that there were still a lot of places and people
Chapter Fifty-eight: Breakthrough
"You shouldn't have done that, Ash!" Ava scolded her little brother. "I don't know what could happen to you if Shawn didn't come to save you. You already knew that—" Ava didn't finish her words when Ash hugged her and apologized, "I'm sorry, sister. I didn't mean to make you worried. I should have been more careful." "It's fine. It already happened; just don't make the same mistake again, okay?" Ava said, patting her brother's head. "Okay," Ash replied. He used wind magic to fly to the second floor of the school building in front of the gate. At this height, he could see the monsters coming with his little telescope. Leo followed Ash to the second floor, while Shawn, Alice, and Ava stood at the gate. They had temporarily defeated the monsters near the school, but they knew that another wave of monsters was about to arrive. They need to protect this place no matter what happens because it contains a lot of refugees in there. It became the citizens' evacuation center. Meanwhile
