Book: Elected under the contract

To win is not to kill.

The image of the hero almost always draws people.

We have created a demiurge, but they have not created what you saw us. In one world a young dragon was in the mountains near collapse and almost died from wounds and hunger, when he was found by a shepherd. Seeing this, the man said, "I'll help you, but for that you have to pay here in this piece of gold" and showed him on one of the stones. And the dragon gave him a nugget of the then quite unnecessary to us yellow metal, although, in gratitude he wanted to give an oath to come to man and all his descendants to the rescue if the worst happens. So we learned that for the help you have to pay and gold for humans is often worth more than his friend's shoulder. Time passed, in another world another dragon for a long time trying to cultivate the field, but he did not succeed, and then he went for advice to the man. "I will tell you how to plow and sow, but in return you'll show me where the diamonds lie," replied the man. And the dragon, having received advice, showed him a cave with a living. He plowed the field, harvested, and his wife and children survived the harsh winter. When the dragon learned that the village a person's impending deadly epidemic, it is in gratitude for saving his family from starvation, hastened to give the man advice as soon as possible to leave here. But the man did not listen to Council of the dragon. Because of Mora died the whole family of man, and he cursed himself for not listened to then Council. So the dragons learned that the advice is costly, and people often ignore them if they received for free.
As time went on, and people in all the worlds realized that not only do we depend on them, but also given us invaluable advice. Gradually they decided that dragons are required for all of them to pay three times more than before, although the dragons gave them hints and tips that you can use to change the course of history. Tired of this injustice, we have decided to change the rules of the game. In each world each dragon family has lost some of its members from starvation, but we turned the tide and began to accustom people to the fact that they also have to pay for everything. But people still tried to give us less than we give them until the end and not realizing that the exchange must be equal. It is impossible for one cow to require that you get rich, and penny discovered the secret, where your opponent's most vulnerable spot.
You people have taught us that to pay for everything, and we become the same as you. And we appreciate it, because thanks to their knowledge and human greed, we were able to survive.

My man can not be a priori a militant idiot every five minutes inquiring to look me in the eye and tone of a little boy to carry the type of fuck: "Dear, let me die beside you". It needs only time to say: "I want to live this life with you", so I knew immediately that we would spend it together.

History teaches us: no more dangerous than the head, than the one which rocked his chair.

A fool climbs ahead, naivas friends to the Emperor, and very often loses his stupid head, the smart first look around without revealing yourself, and then come with a nod to the wise man and ask him to teach you how to keep your head and become Emperor the person.

My grandfather loved to tell that is almost always behind any Emperor is the grey cardinal, the man in whose hands is concentrated the real power. And while the Emperor played in the war, entertained at balls, dragging every skirt, he rules and makes decisions about the fate of the Empire.

Any work must be paid.

Money and principles are incompatible.

But mother is a doctor not only taught me humanism, but also kept saying, as if the patient is not claimed that he is healthy, the treatment process must be carried to the bitter end, but dad always added in a whisper:
- If the patient less tenacious, then to lethal.

I really love my country, hate your state.

“You still want our death?” - with an indescribable Odessa-Jewish accent, he began. Edik tried to jerk, but the protesting dog raised its paw. “You want to tell me, sho, without proper nutrition, should engage in subversive activities in a remote underground and without a gesheft from the command?” So I can not hear? You have nothing to say for the money? Shah, then I will speak for money. Believe me, the old veteran of the fronts of Kolchak and the repentant Makhnovist, all saboteurs were defeated, because some did not care about hot food and the supply of fodder. - What forage ?! What the hell forage ?! Shut up, Christ seller! I hissed, but Sosiskin could not be stopped. “And how do you think we will overcome these terrible deserts in which Moses himself would lose hope and storm these mountains?” - He nodded for some reason toward the sea. “Do you think my short legs can cover these distances?” Edik shook his head stunned, and the dog got inspiration from the tail. - Correctly! My old sore feet are no longer the same as they were during my pink youth, and therefore I need to be provided with a horse. But the horse cannot feed on the holy spirit! Oh, if the horses fed on the holy spirit, it would be heaven on earth, but they also love to eat, and so they need fodder. I no longer tried to intervene, but simply enjoyed the performance. “And if I die, not having endured all the hardships of the path, who will take care of my five miserable hungry puppies, three of which are Siamese twins?” Do you know how much a puppy eats? No, you don’t know how many times a day a puppy eats! If you knew this, then they would not make me such big eyes. And my unfortunate wife who suffered the disease and now has become like a bulldog suffering from a base disease? And this is my Firochka, who was the beauty and pride of the Kryzhopol regional guard dog kennel! But now she has poor digestion, malocclusion, and she still needs a good dentist. Do you know how much a good dentist costs? This werewolf in a white coat at one time takes such money that all seven of my unhappy puppies could eat well for a month! But while I am saving money for visits to doctors, I have to work as a loader at night in the port so that my sick wife can buy special food for herself, oh, forgive me, Firochka, for old dogs. Do you know how much this feed costs? I can see it in my eyes, but you still know how much this food costs! But for some reason you want to make her a widow with bad teeth ?! And my mother-in-law suffering from sciatica and tail curvature ?! Do you know how much mother-in-law costs in a dog shelter? So that my beloved mother-in-law would not need anything, I have to take a job at home and at home re-melt old galoshes onto condoms for the small peoples of the North. Do you want to take such a sin into your soul and leave ten puppies, a wife and mother-in-law without a piece of bread and a breadwinner? Do not, don’t take sin into your immortal soul - it will affect your aura badly and even Kashpirovsky will refuse to treat you. I see, you are a reasonable person, and out of respect for you I will agree to a small but regular donation in favor of the widows and children of war heroes. Do you shake your head negatively? You were not convinced by my children? Then look at this courageous girl with the hands of a pianist who took the ax of war in her sensitive fingers! She, almost martyred, left barefoot for war from home! Oh, if Vi only knew what a cozy house she had and a big refrigerator! And, without asking for anything in return, she threw herself at the embrasure. “Excuse me, but Daria will pay the fee,” Eddie said, stuttering slightly. “Which will not even go to her relatives as a pension,” Sosiskin shaved. - This half-starved baby alone, with a bare heel, will throw at hostile bayonets, and you regret giving her a small advance on warm socks? I am already silent for what she will have, like Mata Hari, whom everyone in Odessa knew as Milya Koltsmalgogel, to figure out the tyrant’s cunning plans. Somehow, he tells me that he, after all, a hereditary Black-Hundred White Guard, will not become frank with some kind of tattered woman. About such as he, all the local resident heterosexuals, who are in the secretariat of the head of counterintelligence, have broken their teeth, but do you want her in this rags to untie his tongue? I see, shaw, like the grandson of Shtirlits, in my heart I agree that in such an outfit she will fail us all, and from hunger she will forget all passwords. And then the grumbling of her empty stomach can drown out Shostakovich’s seventh, heroic symphony, which the child will play to lull the vigilance of the enemy’s troops. But you are an intelligent man, talk to your comrades at the top, let them give her the allocation for hairpins and vitamins. Are you silent? Are you ashamed, didn’t you think about medicines? So clear your conscience, I already thought for you. Or did you think if the girl took an ointment for hemorrhoids with her, she would save her from a sore throat? So Schaub Vee knew, with a sore throat, she would not be able to throw militias into battle, she simply would not be heard. We don’t want it. She died at the very beginning. Or should I start thinking for sabotage? - No need to think for sabotage. I’ll clarify now whether you can take advantage of the win or not, ”Edik died and evaporated. Sosiskin glanced triumphantly at me and said in a perfectly normal tone: “Learn, grunts, how to squat correctly on the ears.”

Women, they're in all the worlds is the same: it is better to wzmocni as a mouse and will show their new clothes, wearing something old, but the season.

Right, and you know, oddly enough, the light in their fanatical act with much greater brutality than the dark. And remember: light is not always good and right, and dark is not always evil and cruel. They are created, like all people, they simply have a different view of the world. But in the midst of this bright-you'll never find a cold-blooded killer, but the real dark for the sake of pleasure or ritual sends a casual death. And the rest among the bright among the dark, there are exceptions, for example, I personally knew a demon who loved to paint pastoral pictures, and his friend, the local priest, checked all brides on the subject of virginity.
