2022-02-24 19:07:33After completing a lame extermination quest successfully, and having already went to collect the reward in the Adventurers Guild, I was simply minding my own business, walking down a road I have never been to yet, then, in the distance, I noticed a large group of people marching in unison.
Were they soldiers? Mercenaries? Maybe a traveling caravan?
I ran to catch up to them.
Faye, as usual nowhere to be seen unless I called to her, and usually, 'walking' or 'running' was not something she did, instead she hovered and no matter how fast I was she always kept up with me.
Recently, I roamed the world so frequently and for so long that I was unsure of which country I was in at this time.
In general, I didn’t know anything about the countries or kingdoms of this world.
It wasn't like I purposefully didn’t listen but I also didn't actively seek out any knowledge of this world.
Well, now I could learn something.
At the end of the giant march, I started talking with the last guy in the queue.
He was bit taller than average, most likely human but he had a few elf-like features, but first:
"Faye, if you will?"
-[Vicgeon Jaiver][LVL. 34 Half-Human/Half-Wood-Elf Soldier][[HP 111/190 │ MP 115/130 │ SP 154/200]]
-[[STR 15] [CON 15] [DEF 17] [INT 10] [WIS 10] [CHA 11] [DEX 13] [LCK 10] [VER 12]]-[[Lushes Block] [Body Skills] [Mental Skills]] [Shield Block LVL. 7] [Shield Slam LVL. 14] [Magic Reflection LVL. 4] [Sweeping Strike LVL. 15][Mortal Blow LVL. 8] [More Pain LVL. 11] [Lust for War LVL. 2] [Sword Blink LVL. 6]]-[Minor Infection]-This guy needs to go to a medic soon.
“Hey what’s up? Where are you marching to?” I asked.
“What? Who’re you?" He said, clearly I disturbed his peace, "get back in formation.”
Formation? That’s something someone in the military would say.
“You don’t need to be strict. I’m not a soldier, or a merc, so there's no ‘getting back in line’ for me.”
“You’re not a soldier?”
“Nope. Hi, by the way. My name is Asher. How are you? Good? That's excellent to hear. So… If you feel like it, would you mind telling me who you plan to fight?
“What is a civilian doing here of all places?” Vicgeon looked around to see if anyone else reacted to my presence.
None of the others seemed to mind my walking along.“Well, I see myself more as an independent actor than just a civilian.”
“Independent what?” He asked, "what are you blathering about?"
“Doesn't matter. Let just say I'm here on behalf of a man named Cyrus, because of the goddess Alexandra.”
“Are you a politician? Or a priest? What is someone like you doing here? Oh, by the lord. You better get to the head. I’m sure there’s someone you can talk to.”
"Thanks, I guess, Vicgeon. You been nice enough, see ya around!” I ran ahead.
“Huh, how did you know my…?”
I was already a good distance away from him.
"Refrain from telling people that you are connected to the Goddess," Faye ordered, out of the blue.
“Don't tell me what to do. I am a free man! And, personally I am, am I not? Just like you are. Maybe a bit less than you are, but still.
And you, of all people, should cut me some slack. Have you ever thought about the psychological harm you have inflicted upon me, completely changing the way I naturally look? Do you even know how I could have ended up looking like? Imagine if I looked like one of those 3d background characters in anime when the artists were too lazy to animate them properly.Shock, horror, shock again then absolute disgust!”She didn't react at all.
Maybe she just pretended that she could not return me to how I looked originally, in this world.Maybe she wanted to troll me.
"Faye, do you know what the dere types are? There are the usual Tsundere and Yandere, which I heavily disavow, Dandere, Deredere and many, many more. The likeliest you are is the Kuudere type. You're cold, but usually warm up to friends after a while, but I've never seen you with friends, or even heard any notion of you having them. Do you hang out with other Paragons while you're not down here with me? And I'm so trying to make friends with you but recently I had the crazy idea that you'll ever warm up to anyone. So, my final assessment is that you're Kuudere without the dere part."
I always had the feeling that she did not like me very much.
That rant I just gave her wasn’t going to make her like me any more than she already did, but I don’t think she’s ever going to like me anyway, so I’ll just stand my ground.

My last thoughts on Asher the Insane
A special thanks to me, the writer, for writing this novel! Just joking. Thanks for coming this far. I guess I covered every trope and cliché I wanted to cover to create one of the worst “actual” web novel that is out there. Yeah, it was a train wreck through and through, but I had a lot of fun writing it. Hope you, whoever is reading this, also had at least some amount of fun reading it.It came from a somewhat shitty premise idea with isekai elements and spun into whatever it is now. Have a nice day. And as a last hurrah: Fuck you for reading this fucking garbage!
Ending B
“Does it this time? Or are you, as always, unwilling to share what is to happen? You are a powerful god. Fate, future, past, present, all that will be. The gods have grown complacent, and it is time for a change."While Urien still making a somewhat tired speech about gods and whatever, destiny, maybe, I walked up to the hooded god, whoever he was he must have been pretty powerful, as Urien said.Without hesitation, I spoke up. "This would really be the perfect moment to blast him," I said, gesturing towards Urien.To my surprise, the hooded figure nodded in agreement. "In this you are right, mortal Asher," he said, his voice deep and resonant. And with a calm flick of his wrist, a bolt of lightning shot towards Urien.The power of the blast was unimaginable. It was as if the very fabric of reality was tearing apart at the seams. I could see the sky lighting up with bursts of energy, and I felt the ground shaking beneath my feet. The forces of the world were colliding, all in an effor
Ending A
“Cyrus,” I heard Alexandra call, “get behind me.”“Do not protect him. If you would have cared from the beginning, then an in-numerous amount of them could have been saved. Why, little goddess, even your precious Paragon? Faye, I recall her name. Even if you can create her again, does it not bother you that she was destroyed in the first place?”“She is as we are,” Alexandra said. “She will not be bothered by your little games as she knows her purpose, which you do not seem to.”“Then it doesn’t matter if I kill your little mortal friend, does it?” He said.And as he did, a sickly black smoke approached from behind the death god towards the gods and me.With the fog/mist gone, I saw that the new smoke cloud was as tall and wide as I could see, and I was pretty confident in my sight.“Cyrus, take my hand. I must lend you our power, or you will not be if you are hit by Urien’s madness.” Alexandra said as she held out her hand.I took it but had to ask, “whaddya mean ‘lend you our power’
100 - THE FINALE / Asher the Extravaganza
I awoke in pitch black, lying on something which I couldn’t really describe, but it was neither soft nor very hard. This wasn't my childhood bed. That much was apparent; in which I had slept in the night before, instead I found myself in what I thought was sand. It's wet too, ugh. From the feeling I got, I think I was also wearing my usual equipment, a sort of armor made of leather. It was a pretty low tier, but I thought it looked pretty cool. Why was I wearing it? I went to bed in my pajamas and now that I am here. I’m suddenly wearing it. Of course, this place could have been anywhere I could have thought of. I waited for my eyes to adjust to the darkness, but no matter how long I seemed to wait, they never did. But even though it was too dark to see anything, it wasn't too dark to hear anything. There were many people present wherever this was. Talking, shouting, screaming their heads off, moving about, and running. From the muffled sound of bare feet to the iron clang of a
99 - The Truth
“Who are you?” Jacob asked as he pushed his wife behind him for protection. He felt a sense of confusion and fear, not knowing who this elf-man was or what he wanted from them.The elf man's response only added to Jacob's confusion. "I know this is hard to accept, but I'm your son, Asher."Jacob almost burst out laughing at how ridiculous the situation was. "And how do you plan on proving that?" he asked.“I can prove it, don’t you worry about that,” The Elf said.“How?” Curious, Zilpah raised a question. She pushed past Jacob despite his attempts to keep her behind him.Asher responded, "Well, do you remember Faye, my oh-so imaginary childhood friend? She's not quite as fantastical as you might have thought. Faye if you will," he said as he poured steaming tea into a new cup.Suddenly, an ethereal young woman manifested opposite him."I'd like you to meet her," Asher said.She didn't say a word.“We aren't really close, but she has been sharing my adventures and has occasionally been
98 - Jacob and Zilpah, The Parents
Deep within the southern farmlands of the grand kingdom of Kathe, close to the bustling city of Wellden, there existed a quaint little farm owned by a couple named Jacob and Zilpah. These two individuals were not your typical townsfolk.They were childhood friends who grew up in the same small village on the outskirts of the town of Charlo. They spent their youth playing together in the fields and learning the ways of the land from their families, who also were farmers. As they grew older, Jacob and Zilpah started to see each other in a different light, and eventually, they fell in love.Years went by, and they stayed together through thick and thin, facing the hardships of farming and battling against droughts and pests, but they always managed to pull through with their unwavering dedication and love for one another. They watched as their crops grew tall and their livestock flourished, and they knew that they had built a life together that was worth more than any riches or fame.A f
