Ocular Menace: Misadventures of a Man with many Eyes

Johnathan Reed had just finished celebrating his 18 birthday, when like any self-respecting novel protagonist, died to the hands of Truck-Kun. He laments in his last moments the fact he never made it past 24 hours of adulthood, and should have looked before crossing the road. Next thing he knows he's in a old medieval style house. After successfully running away from the house, and whatever problems might come from meeting people, he's in the middle of nowhere until he hears the classic *Ding* any gamer would be familiar with. The Art Is Not Mine. If you are the owner of the art and want it down. let me know and I'll oblige. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- --Do I have you interested? please do let me know of any feedback you have, as again, this is solely for my own enjoyment and to improve my literary skills. I'm the only person proofreading this, and the grammar is probably killing you, so just bear with me, because English was never my best subject Also my jokes could be unfunny, let me know. Also I will do my best for compelling characters, but again first time writing. so stuff like romance might flop and be underwhelming for people and is probably gonna be a side bit, not the main focus and later on.

"Alright then Alexander, let's get this over with, you win, and the empires yours, I win however and the empires mine. I''m sure you've noticed, but refusal isn't an option" Johnathan shouts this out to make sure everyone can hear him.

"What can you make me do, peasant!" He then starts walking away, but before he takes 10 steps, he's back where he started. Alexander seems to not have noticed and keeps walking, so Johnathan teleports him back and clears his throat.

"As I said, refusal is not an option, so get out a weapon, and fight me!" Johnathan bellows. Everyone takes a step back in fear, expect Alexander. He looks bored and unsheathes his longsword, but Johnathan doesn't even blink, he then teleports the secretary person in front of him and starts giving out orders.

"Start a countdown, when you count to 0 we start, and don't try anything, I'm sure you value your head." Johnathan mutters the last bit, and the secretary's face pales. She then walks away and clears her voice.

"3,2,1, Begin!" As soon as she says this, Johnathan starts shooting his guns, however he's not aiming for Alexander, just around him, just to let him know who's in charge. Alexander seems to have missed this fact and starts laughing at him.

"Peasant! Before you challenge me, you should have learnt how to aim!" He's laughing as loud as he can, but halfway through, the crown on his head is shot, making it fly for around 20 feet before rolling around. Alexander then starts sweating profusely, but he still decides to play it off.

"A Fluke, the world would never allow harm to befall me! The great Alexander!" Johnathan is extremely surprised at this attitude, his body was sweating profusely, yet he refused to even acknowledge the possibility of defeat. Johnathan then stares blackly at him for a few seconds, acknowledging the fact he at least had balls of steel. He then decides to finish this quickly and taunts the king.

"Great my ass, even this dirt below me is greater than you, your just a fucking weakling with complementary crown. Your bird shit without that fancy title or herald of attendants, the only thing keeping this sorry excuse of a kingdom from becoming history." This seems to have struck a nerve, as he then starts screaming.

"YOU PEASANT! YOUR COURTING DEATH!" He then starts charging towards Johnathan, who's snickering uncontrollably. Right before he starts swinging his sword, Johnathan disappears. He feels something tapping his shoulder. He turns around to see Johnathan looking at him mockingly. He then feels like he'd been punched all over his body, before he finds himself staring at the sun and in extreme pain, he's crying like a baby on the floor, but he then stands up, his face looking like Johnathan had just killed his family, if he cared about them. He then starts chanting, Johnathan can't hear him, and he doesn't really care either, he just waits for a minute, after a minute, a massive blue fire dragon had appeared, before launching towards Johnathan. He teleports away, only to have it swerve towards him, so he decides to do this an a way that would humiliate Alexander more, and teleports behind him, his smile of triumph suddenly turning into a stare of fear, as his dragon was barreling towards him. They soon collide, and after a minute, Alexander can be seen exiting the fire, he has burns all over him, and he was now bald. Johnathan had felt like he showed his strength sufficiently, so he then uses Tsukuyomi in new moon to slice off his head, just for the extra effect.

After the ex-kings head goes rolling, everyone is deathly silent. No one can believe what they've just seen, a few smacks can be heard. After waiting a few minutes to let the scene sink in, he sees a notification from the system.

After looking at what he's obtained, he realizes he doesn't really have the leisure to look over it right now, so he decides to tie up the loose ends. He then picks up the crown and puts it on his head, no one had moved a muscle since Alexander died. They're all still frozen but when he puts on the crown, they start talking amongst themselves.

"As per the bet, I am now the emperor, but if you have any issues with that, feel free to challenge me. Keep in mind however, there will be no mercy to those who try challenging me, only death awaits." He then teleports onto the throne and sits down.
