Elemental Summoner 1 D. Levesque (beach read .txt) 📖

About twenty of us. Some mages, some hunters like me. Well our leader, Brakan, who is a very rich and powerful Fire mage, shoved one of the less strong mages into the black rock. The kid was only about fifteen years old. Again, the stone killed him, but it also got even blacker. Then he grabbed one of the non-mages and shoved him against it before we could react, and once more, that person died. But yet again, no increase in the blackness of the portal.”

“All right, but what does that have to do with these Elves?” I ask him, mystified.

Mig takes a deep breath before answering. “Brakan had the idea that it was magic users that increased the portal’s power. He wanted to open it to see what is on the other side. So he came up with the idea of using monster slaves who can use magic. So now he has us gathering them, bringing them to the Lake of Ruins, and shoving the slaves against the portal.”

“How long have you been doing this?” Leeha asks Mig in horror.

“Four months,” he says in a soft voice, not looking up at her.

“How many?” Leeha asks him so softly I can barely hear her, but I guess he does.

“Hundreds,” he says, and I can hear the guilt in his voice, but I am so fucking furious that all I can see is red.

What he is telling me is that this Brakan and his party, have spent the last four months capturing all these slaves who have magical abilities and killing them. And while he may regret it now, Mig has been in on it, has followed it through. To him, the Elves and other races have been nothing but, as he called them, ‘monster races’. Turning to Bridget, who is standing next to me, I say softly through gritted teeth, “Kill him,” and suddenly the collar around Mig explodes, leaving only a headless body wrapped in vines

Leeha looks at me in surprise. “We are going to the Lake of Ruins,” I tell her in clipped tones. “We are getting to the bottom of this. Let’s head there as fast as we can,” I tell her.

Congratulations. You have received the first Quest.

Defeat the Portal to Hell, or a horde from Hell will be unleashed on Boromour.

Congratulations. Achievement! First Quester.

You have received 1 Heavenly Token.

Heavenly Tokens: 12 of 200

What the fuck? Demons? I look over at Leeha with more surprise than she is showing me. At my look, she rushes over to me and grabs my shirt. “What!” she asks me frantically.

“I think I just got a Quest to stop an invasion,” I tell her numbly.

“An invasion?” she asks me, perplexed. “From what?

“A horde of Demons from Hell.”

Leeha looks at me in horror and says softly, “Fucking Hell, it’s happening again.”

About the Author

I am an older-than-dirt gamer. I started gaming when old school BBS' were a thing, playing Pit Fighter and Trade Wars. I remember buying my first PC when I was 14 years old; it was a RadioShack Tandy PC. Paid a ton for it.

When the internet became available, I was on the early (well, not THAT early) bandwagon.

My venture into online games started with Ultima Online. Then I got into the beta for Everquest. THAT was my addiction. I eventually convinced my partner at the time, to try the game since it seemed to be "taking you away from me almost every evening". And that is how my now wife became a gamer girl. We raided for years, and made some fantastic friends, who we still talk to on Facebook. Then came Everquest 2. Yet more addiction. I have tried WoW, many times. While the game was good, I just never got into it. Sorry WoW Players.

Since then, I have played tons of games that have come out, from online games to stand-alone ones. I have so many titles on Steam that one would think I would not run out of stuff to play, right? Yeah. If you look at my most played games in Steam, it would have to be in order: Elder Scrolls Online (over 900 hours), Ark Survival Evolved (over 500 hours), and Everquest 2 on Steam. But that doesn't take into account before I had it on Steam, so add another 2000 hours to that!

My love and passion for reading started at a young age. The first book I read for the sheer pleasure of it as a child was Lord of the Rings at the age of 12. From then on, it became an expensive habit. I have been reading Science Fiction and Fantasy ever since.

I am also a fan of Anime and Manga. Yeah, I know. How much more geek can I add to this? Oh, oh, you just wait. I was more into ichii and harem there. But also, more fantasy-based ones. I never did watch Yu-Gi-Oh or such. I did love comedy ones. Years ago, I remember introducing my older kids to Ranma ½. Yeah, I wasn't a good dad.

About three years ago, I was introduced to LitRPG and GameLit, and well, HaremLit. And I have not gone back. I have bought and read so many books on Kindle. I won't mention the numbers. I have wanted to write a book from a pretty young age, since I had lots of imagination and ideas. But I was always under the impression you needed a large publisher. I was wrong. Instead, I decided to put my thoughts to paper, as it were, and this started my new career as an author.
