Chapter 9: Thick and Fast
“So that’s why you came looking for me? You want to use my hand to deal with him?” Su Chen poured himself a cup of tea as he laughed coldly. “That’s a pretty nice way of saying that you want me to do your dirty work.”
Shi Mingfeng said, “Sun Mo was sent by An Sili to harm you. Are you not planning on trying to get revenge?”
Su Chen said lazily, “But he didn’t succeed, did he?”
Shi Mingfeng said with some agitation, “But some have begun to suspect you. If you can kill An Sili, you will be able to demonstrate your loyalty to the imperial family……”
“But I will also incur the wrath of many people within the Immortal Temple, right?” Su Chen countered. “I help you deal with an opposing faction, causing all their hatred to fall on me in the process, and you don’t even have to move a pinky. That’s quite the plan.”
Shi Mingfeng chuckled, “Isn’t this a win-win situation for us?”
Su Chen replied, “Not to me. I don’t care how the imperial family sees me.”
Su Chen really did not care.
Demonstrate his loyalty to the imperial family?
Forget about it! He had not needed the support of the imperial family to reach where he was now.
He didn’t need to rely on killing An Sili to demonstrate his loyalty, because he wasn’t loyal at all in the first place.
Shi Mingfeng, however, felt a bit stifled.
Even though he knew that Su...

Paternum: A Superhero Story
When Quinn finds an experimental superpower-granting costume in their parents’ attic, they didn’t expect to be drawn into a web of superhuman intrigue, but their discovery serves as the catalyst for that conspiracy to slowly unravel. At it’s heart, Paternum is an extended coming-of-age story for the main character as they become a superhero, in a world with more reasonable stakes and less powerful heroes than many superheroic worlds. Themes include what art means to different people, and what it means to be a patron, whether as a sponsor, a parent, or a supporter. I consider Paternum‘s primary influences to be the various versions of Spider-Man, J. C. McCrae’s own superhero story Worm, and Drew Hayes’ story SuperPowereds. I hope that fans of such stories can find something to enjoy in mine as well. Paternum is primarily hosted on my website (thevoidwrites.com) where it updates weekly in groups of scenes totalling approximately 2000 words. Here on Royal Road, it will update once daily with one scene at a time, but only after each act is completed on the home site - the next batch of updates is scheduled to begin on February 5th. There is a discord channel for discussion (discordapp.com/invite/QFMM6yA), and you can vote for Paternum on topwebfiction (topwebfiction.com/vote.php?for=paternum) as well. Finally, you can buy the first book of Paternum, The Swift Uplifting Rush, in a couple different ways - as an ebook through Amazon, or directly from me for a discounted price, or as a physical paperback from Amazon. Buying the book will give you access to Drawing Hands, an exclusive arc that won't ever be published on either my site or Royal Road.

Petmaster Evolutions
This is a story about an ordinary earthling that sees the impossible and because of that gets kidnapped and introduced the the system called Odyssey which infects planets with mana to create monsters. This story will follow his journey through his trials. I do not believe in overpowered so I will not allow the MC to get to god mode. Since I started writing, the story has evolved some from chapter 1 on through as some stuff just did not make sense and in my mind the story has become clearer. Eventually I will have to go back and edit the beginning chapters to match the rest of the story but I do not have time at the moment. I will update as often as possible but I work full time, school full time, and have a 18 month old and an infant. I make no promises on time between new chapters. Honestly I did not expect people to follow the story and I just wanted to write for the fun of it and to see how the story that was running around in my head came out. I appreciate all of you who take the time to read my story and help me make it better by pointing out any mistakes I make. The only editing and proofreading I manage to do is the word app Grammarly so I miss things sometimes.
