Chapter 1021: Enlightened
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Half a month later would be the day Evil Emperor would appear in the Chinese server . Happy had a feeling that the results of the Chinese players’ fight against Evil Emperor and Class One Hall would come out by then .
But regardless of what the results were, Happy wanted to try and make up to Xu Xin as soon as possible over here and complete the promise he made with her, because he did not know when Chen Kaixin would wake up .
It was precisely because of this that Happy set the date so early .
When she saw that Happy had promised her and even set the date without hesitation, Xu Xin, who only wished to use her game identity to get a proof of their relationship before she began maintaining some distance between her and Happy became abashed . Her face flushed, and the redness even went straight to her ears .
“It’s not . ” Happy chuckled and gently hugged Xu Xin again . “Now, can you tell me when you arrived, and exactly how long have you been here?”
“One month ago… At that time, I was just a little rash, and I wanted to know whether what you said to us was real . ” Xu Xin seemed to have gotten used to the atmosphere and posture between them right now, and her tone became gentle . She nudged her head against Happy’s chest, found a comfortable spot to lean against him, and murmured, “Over the past month, you will only wake up every day when it’s meal time, and with every single day that passes, I would believe in your words even more, and my heart would ache even more . I know that you set a lot of your time over on the other side, and one of these days, you will completely leave us . ”
When he heard this, Happy could not help but have his heart clench, he tightened his hold over the girl in his arms, and he mumbled, “I won’t . ”
No one in the Chinese plains would be able to believe that Happy, the person with the strongest influence and power in the game, would actually feel a sense of unease that others would never feel .
‘Is this the price that I have to face for having an additional three years of experience?’
Sometimes, Happy would truly think like that in his mind . Was the heavens toying with him? Allowing him to have what he should not have, and when he had to face separation, he would lose all of those things?
As they shared their body heat, they gradually became calm .
After an unknown amount of time passed, the girl in his arms struggled a little before she raised her pretty and adorable face . “Happy . ”
Happy gently wiped off a tear from Xu Xin’s face, and he put on an attentive look .
“It’s still too soon for your meal . Did something happen here for you to suddenly come over?” Xu Xin was a lady with a pure heart . She reminded Happy why he came over, and then, he remembered that he came here to search for news regarding Marrow Cleansing Classic .
“Yeah, I do have something to deal with . ”
Happy did not want to hide anything anymore in front of Happy, so he told her some of his experiences in the other world .

Xu Xin leaned against him quietly and listened to Happy talk about the events three years later . She was also very curious about those things . When she heard about how Class One Hall had expanded, she widened her eyes in surprise, and it was very cute .
He spent a long time talking about many things, and Xu Xin listened carefully to him .
In the end, Xu Xin bit her finger and stared at the ceiling for a long time .
“Since it’s Shaolin Temple’s matchless classic, it’s definitely unlike a normal martial art manual . ”
“I know, but even when I asked three Myth Realm martial artists to hit me, it’s useless . Marrow Changing Classic just won’t level up,” Happy said in a resigned but relaxed tone .
“Of course . They’re three martial artists and the beginning stage of Myth Realm . You mentioned that Tendon Changing Classic can only increase by one level after they hit you multiple times, right? Since Marrow Cleansing Classic cannot be actively used, it’s definitely even harder to train . Besides, didn’t Mad Monk ask you to practice Marrow Cleansing Classic after you mastered Tendon Changing Classic for three years . There’s definitely a reason behind it . ”
“But I can’t wait for three years . If I don’t increase my strength as quickly as possible, when Evil Emperor arrives at the Chinese server, Wind Assault Tower will definitely fall . At that time, even One Emperor can’t protect himself, and it’ll be difficult for Wind Chimes to even leave Beijing . I’ll be the only one who will be fighting against Wild Wolves and Class One Hall if that happens!” Happy sighed in anguish .
It was only then that Xu Xin realized that Happy’s situation over there was completely different from this world . In this world, everything was in Mu Clan’s control, but Wild Wolves and Class One Hall were in control over there, which meant that everything was the exact opposite with this place . She thought for a while with a cute frown on her face, and she tried to come up with a solution together with Happy .
Time passed by very quickly .
The two stayed for more than an hour in the prison .
Xu Xin suddenly cried out in the quiet prison . “I have an idea . Why don’t you just ask Mad Monk about it?”
Happy thought that Xu Xin had actually come up with a good idea, and in his shock, he rubbed his shock . “It’s not that easy to ask him . Mad Monk asked me to go to him after I master Tendon Changing Classic for three years, and it’s only then that I can get Marrow Cleansing Classic . ”
“But you’re his successor right now, right? What’s the problem in asking him? You might be able to get some clues . ”
“But with what excuse am I supposed to use to speak to Mad Monks? I can’t just go there and chat with him . ” Happy smiled wryly .
“Idiot!” Xu Xin used her head to nudge Happy’s chin . “What’s the realm for your Tendon Changing Classic?”
Happy found himself speechless . Xu Xin had just dissed him .
He sighed and answered, “Grandmaster Realm . ”
“I’m not asking about your realm over there . I’m talking about over here, silly . You already told me that you can’t go out as you pleased over there anymore . ”
Happy suddenly found that he was indeed a little stupid . Ever since he had someone in his heart, his thoughts had become much slower than before . He cannot think as quickly as Xu Xin .

But over this period of time, his thoughts were all focused on the other world, and he did not quite pay attention to this side . It had been some time since he paid attention to the level for his Tendon Changing Classic .
With that thought in mind, Happy immediately summoned his martial arts log and looked at it, and he was instantly stunned .
“It’s at Level 99 . 37 . I didn’t think that it would have almost reached max level after I’ve been AFK for nearly two months…”
“But of course!” Xu Xin had a cunning and smug smile flash on her face . “Did you actually think that I’ve really been staring at you like some lovesick idiot over the past month or so?”
Right when she finished speaking, Happy instantly stared at Xu Xin in dumbfounded shock . “You…”
Warmth quickly filled his limbs .
Happy could not help but lower his head .
Xu Xin blinked in shock, and when she saw Happy’s face approaching hers, her neck quickly flushed red, and it burned .
At the moment their lips parted, Happy’s eyes when he stared at Xu Xin became even gentler and filled with love . “Silly girl, and you’re telling me that you’re not a fool?”
Over the past month, she had continuously given the prisoners even more accurate instructions to help Happy train and seized every second she could to optimize his training speed . This meant that she had to spend even more time and energy than when Happy trained on his own .
But Xu Xin had been doing this dull task for more than a month, and it was no wonder why his Tendon Changing Classic had improved by so much .
Xu Xin’s eyes sparkled . “You promised me the world’s most romantic wedding . This is my reward for you . ”
“Thanks, you silly girl . ”
“Alright, I won’t be bothering you . Go ahead and continue training . You need to fight for time . Once you completely master Tendon Changing Classic, you should have the excuse and chance to have Mad Monk speak to you . ” Xu Xin took the initiative to push Happy, and she reluctantly left his embrace .
“I know . ” Happy did not continue immersing himself in his love for Xu Xin .
He wanted to get rid of Evil Emperor as soon as possible so that he could get rid of the danger over at the other side and return to this place . Then, without any other distractions, he could give Xu Xin a wedding she would never forget .
He would host the grandest wedding in the Chinese server for her!
[Here . Are you still training in the sect prison?]
[Yeah . Any news about Wild Wolves over this period of time?]
[No . Right now, Wild Wolves are being very honest after the beating we gave them . They basically don’t dare to enter the big countries anymore, and the Prophet is paying his full attention into managing his International Influential Rank of the Strong and the International Great People Rank . The Chinese server is at peace,] Silver Wolf answered .
[Alright . But you still have to be careful . Also, I have something to ask of you . ]
[When were you ever so polite? Go on, just tell me what you want . ]
[I want to host a wedding in the game for Xu Xin . Which place do you think is the most suitable?]
[Hang on… What did you just say? What wedding?]
He could practically hear Silver Wolf coughing from the disbelieving tone in his voice . Happy could only repeat his words in his letter in resignation .
[My god! You’ve finally been enlightened . Honestly, when I’ve been eating at your place over the past few days, my heart was about to jump out of my chest when I saw you two giving the cold shoulder to each other . But how did you solve the problem in such a short while? Anyway, I have absolutely no problem in choosing a place for you, but you have to teach me exactly how you did it,] Silver Wolf replied in his letter .
Silver Wolf thought that Happy was just trying to dodge the question, so he decided to ignore the question of how Happy managed to end the cold war between him and Xu Xin, and his tone changed . [Alright, it’s fine if you don’t want to say it . Well, you’re the strongest player in the Chinese server, and also the clan master for Mu Clan, so we can’t be hasty in choosing a place for your wedding . You must seem magnanimous and solemn so that you can show how imposing Mu Clan is! Then, we can also show off how awe-inspiring you are as the strongest player in the world . ]
[Stop dragging all those things and just give me some references, will you?]
[The Forbidden City! What do you think?]
[…Do you want a large group of elites from the palace causing trouble to my wedding?]
[Ahem . If that doesn’t work, we can change to another spot . I just thought it would be very grand if you host a wedding over there…] Silver Wolf quickly corrected himself . [Why don’t you just host it at Murong Clan? That place is where your master is, after all!]
[We can forget about the Murong Clan . ]
Happy instantly thought about the three old Murong Clan elders . Right now, he was worried about running into those three old men, because they would randomly throw him a series of chain quests if they felt like it, and he could not walk away from it either, because they would get rid of his martial arts if he did . That would seriously be very depressing .
Silver Wolf was troubled . [Those two places are both very significant . If you don’t like them, then it’ll be very hard to make a choice . If it really doesn’t work, what about our headquarters? But Baokang is a little too small . At that time, all the players in the Chinese server are going to come and congratulate you . I reckon that Baokang County Town won’t be able to fit all of them inside . ]
Happy found himself speechless . [Please pay attention to some possible spots for me over this period of time and give me an answer after a few days . Also, please have the clan members help me organize the wedding…]
[Of course! There have been very few major events in the Chinese server . If I tell them about this, they will definitely be delighted! They’ll be fighting over each other to help!]
Silver Wolf did not write anything for a while before he sent a letter over to Happy that made him really, really speechless .
[But Happy, are you sure that the bride will not run on that day?]

Void Breaker
Note: Sadly, this story is currently on hiatus :( Elizabeth Sayler had lost everything in the bombing of Reaver Stadium. Her career, her fame, her power — all of it vanished the moment she lost use of her legs. Now, she's beginning to lose hope of ever healing herself… until her world integrates into the Void. When the apocalypse comes in a flurry of System messages, everyone on earth is given a choice: give up what they value most in themselves, and acquire a path to their heart’s greatest desire. Most would hesitate, but for Liz? She has nothing to lose, and absolutely everything to gain. Armed with newfound powers in a world teeming with monsters, she’s determined to not only survive, but to somehow break the Void’s endless assault. * * * This is a small note about the portrayal of disability in this story. As much research as I do and as many people as I ask, I will in the end only be able to understand a small portion of paraplegia and similar disabilities. Therefore, if there is anything particularly disrespectful, please do not hesitate to contact me. I always intended to portray disability in a respectful way in this story, but please know that Liz as a character does not start out with a healthy view of disability. This is intentional, and a large part of her character development comes from this view changing as she learns. Disability is not something she simply "discards" at the beginning of the story, but an ongoing theme and a part of her journey.

Tabula Rasa : An Unbound Adventure
It starts as many things do: a clean slate, an empty page. What once was set in stone and wholly writ is gone, and all that's left is the vague notion of absence, a fullness lacking.The feeling of being tetherless, pathless, without direction or responsibility is something many would find terrifying. Others might find it freeing - an opportunity to strike out on new adventures and explore the unknown.Either way, first they have to figure out where they are and how they leave. ====== My first novel on this platform! An avid GameLit/LitRPG fan, I decided to start writing this when I seemed to exhaust all of my options for well reviewed content on the site! Inspiration for the world/general feeling is a mix of Azarinth Healer, Abyssal Road Trip, Winterborn, and the Power of Ten series, with a strong reliance on 3.5 and PF1 frameworks as a scaffold for the world. I see Arc 1 as a Robinson Crusoe style coming to terms scenario, lots of exploration of the System, the MC's options, the island and encounters with the denizens and visitors of the Timeless Isle, with a non-zero amount of introspection around their long term goals. I'll publish as frequently as I'm able but don't have a regular cadence planned at the moment.
