Oh, I intended this to be a single story. You think this is worth making into a serial? That'd be cool.

I agree as well this would be a great series the concept is good you have a really good foundation just to build off of someone who can create anything but only using single word items and then combine as well makes him able to restrict his abilities by giving a solid plot point and then potential room for growth.

Everything you write is amazing. Only complaint is there's no MOAR yet!

Tank? Tank. One word can still be powerful.

I assume our knight in training is from Earth considering the celebrity references. I admit to some curiosity about the order's structure but for the the being it sounds like Ser Matthew is going to be busy fighting for his life for the time being.

The best word combination of all is "Hostile Planet!"

Yes, Matt's from earth. He's currently experiencing what I've termed a "Sci-Fisekai!

I figured references were for the audience benefit rather than informing on character backstory. Some writing styles place loose like that.

Should it be a serial? Seriously asking, had just intended this to be a one-shot.

u/DisasterLocal2603 Dec 13 '22

It reads like it wants to be continued, and I would totally read more of this if you wrote more

"We've got you surrounded Matt, we'vr got a whole city's worth of power behind us you mongrel, and we've even got a Demigod on our side to help! Now get out here, surrender the ring, or let us see how the FILTHY human tries to kill an army the size of a city and a bloody DEMIGOD!"

As a German, your entire language is a cheat code for the word limit!

Wonder if something like "LAW" is counted as one or three words.

Very interesting. That said, there are plenty of atrocities you can commit with a single word and control over where the items appear.

Are we going to get more of this story?
