The Urban Dao Child. Chapter 90
Advertisement
Yang Dao and Laohu Bai jumped off the plane. The two could see the outline of the landscape below. The boy led the dive trajectory while Laohu Bai followed. Vaguely identifying the orphanage building outline, the boy pulled onto the parachute string. Laohu Bai followed his actions with no hesitation.
...
Below in the orphanage, a few older kids were still awake and had anxious expressions on their faces. One of the girls named Tasha asked, "Say, Brother Cao, what do you think will happen to the three?"
Cao was a guy. He was 14 and was the oldest among the seven or eight kids here. He said, "I don't know, Sister Tina called Brother Dao a few hours ago. Probably he will be able to help them."
Tasha nodded, then she glanced outside the window and closed her eyes to pray, "God, please send us your aid. Help those who are in suffering, heal those in pain. Please, I will not eat chocolate for 3 months. No, 1 month. Please." she was 12 years old. To an orphan chocolate was a delight and luxury, this girl gave up her delight to help her fellow orphans who were in suffering at this moment.
The girl opened her eyes and saw two neon figures slowly descending to the orphanage. She rubbed her eyes twice and said, "Brother Cao, what is that." as she pointed her finger to the two figures falling from the sky.
Cao looked outside and was surprised. As Yang Dao and Laohu Bai came closer to the garden in the orphanage the dim lighting reflected on them, their appearances became more prominent. Cao spat out in disbelief, "Brother Dao fell from the sky with an angel beside him."
Laohu Bai was nothing short of an angel in looks, her white hair made her have an appearance of a fairy tale creature. The four boys were mesmerized by her appearance. Just as they were lost in thought, Yang Dao and the girl touched down. The kids rushed out to greet them.

...
Yang Dao landed and quickly tugged down the parachute and so did Laohu Bai. The boy was just packing it up when he heard a lot of footsteps rushing towards him. He turned back only to catch two girls jumping at him. He sighed, "I missed you two as well. Nina, Tina."
The two girls who jumped at him were twins called Tina and Nina. It was not known who was the elder one and who was the younger one. They were unable to talk when they were sent back to the orphanage, the two girls were already in dire conditions. They were seemingly being strangled by their father when the police came. To save them, the constable shot down the maniac father, who was shouting that these two kids were the demons who ate their mother and killed her during the birth.
In the assault by the maniac, the two lost the ability to speak. Yang Dao was 5 when they came over and due to him being a silent one he liked to stay by their side and took care of them. The bond between people was very deep in the orphanage. Despite being an introvert on the surface, Yang Dao did his best for everyone since a young age and everyone in the orphanage knew that. He started to work part-time when he was ten and since then he would bring back stuff from his savings.
Coaxing the two girls who hugged him with gentle pats on their heads he asked, "Cao, what happened?"
Cao woke up from his trance and said, "Brother Dao, today was the outing day. Sister Tina took ten children under ten years to the elder square. It happened that some rich philanthropist was visiting the square as well. But something happened, Sister Tina did not tell us anything when she came back. Only seven children came back. She said that the orphanage is now running on your money so she will inform you while asked us all to go to sleep. She was very exhausted so Tasha gave her some cough syrup. The seven children are all quiet as well not telling us anything. We don't know what to do."

Narrating the situation, the dam he built to hold himself broke and tears started pouring out. He was younger than Yang Dao, now seeing him in front of him, he could not hold on. His tears fell and everyone else also started crying. Yang Dao did not know how to handle this, he turned to look at Laohu Bai who was just as clueless as him.
He sighed as he thought it would be better to have Feng Yun beside him at this time. He said, "Sister Bai, did your people get anything?"
Laohu Bai replied, "Let me make a call, Young Master." Yang Dao took out her phone from his pocket and returned it to her. Her dress did not have any pockets so she handed it to him on the plane. She took back the phone and made a call, both the people did not care about the crying children or it could be said that they did not know what to say and how to make them calm down.
Watching Laohu Bai going to the side to make a phone call he said to the kids, "See guys, I do not know how to console you, but I assure you this time will pass. If we are done wrong by anyone then I will make them pay. Okay. Believe in me for a bit and do not cry." his calm voice made them all calm down a bit.
Laohu Bai walked back after a few minutes. Her aura was akin to a tiger ready to shred the prey. Yang Dao said, "Calm down, Sister Bai."
The girl immediately woke up. Her aura was so harsh that it scared the children. She said, "I apologize for the mistake, Young Master. The report I received is not very good. Please come with me."
Yang Dao sensed that it may be not something that could be disclosed to the children so the two people walked to the side. When they were out of the earshot Laohu Bai said, "Young Master, seemingly the square is under terrorist attack. The three children are dead." her energetic voice turned helpless when she said the last sentence.
Yang Dao stood there stunned in a daze.

The Emperor's Chef
"Cook like your life depends on it, kid. Because it does." Charles had an enviable future lined up for him. Training from the age of five by some of the finest chefs in the world. Schooling at a top culinary academy in the capital. An honorable position as heir to House Boulier, a line of merchant-lords who have charmed the rich and powerful with their cooking for centuries. And in a single night, it all burned to ash. When the outbreak of war destroys his hometown, Charles is charged with escorting his family’s sacred treasure—a recipe book passed down for untold generations—out of harm's way. But his simple mission grows complicated when he’s captured by one of the most feared battalions in the world: the Spears of Mercy. Life as a prisoner in their war camp is brutal and uncertain. Charles has few allies and even fewer strengths to rely on. Only his skills in the culinary arts, honed over a lifetime in the kitchen, are deemed useful enough to keep him alive another day. But he’s not out of hope just yet. With a dash of wit, a pinch of luck, and some very creative cooking, he might just find a way to recover his family’s legacy and take back his freedom. This project is a food-themed fantasy that centers on cooking and chefs. The setting spans a wide world featuring ingredients/recipes both real and inspired by traditional fantasy. I'll eventually be publishing it as a full-length novel (or series of novels depending on length). These are the first draft chapters. I'll likely be re-writing more than once, then editing before publishing, so impressions and feedback are quite welcome. If you like the story so far and you're interested in being an early reviewer for the final product, feel free to message me. I'm looking for an artist to make some concept art and a cover (the cover shown here is just a temporary placeholder). A stand-alone novel for now, but it may turn into a series down the road.

Threads
A legendary landmass long since believed lost to the world reappears in the seas of the island nation of Annitou, setting off a frantic race by the surrounding governments to acquire its allegedly powerful secrets. From every corner of the map comes settlers, merchants, pirates, and the strongest enforcers of each country's sovereignty: the Agents, individuals with unique, sometimes seemingly divine talents which can rival the power of even an army. However on the lawless frontier of the newly rediscovered island of Jinchi, national loyalties and personal ambition are put to the real test. Threads follows the interconnected stories of individuals from all strata of this world, from the lowly in-training cadets, to the mighty and seemingly invincible generals, to the otherwise innocuous and 'powerless' civilians. Each person holds a piece of the puzzle- but nobody can say how it will ultimately be put together.

Daughters of the Void
Emily is a high school student. Too tall and developed for her age. Her will has been broken, so now, she is fearful and insecure. But that, doesn't explain why those around her bully and despise her. Perhaps... it is related to the dark and deep secret that she has inexplicably forgotten? What made her forget it? The strange being, with whom Emily once made a pact, intends to find out what has happened. To do so, will take her to a world terribly different from this one. Why does it take her to another world? Why did Emily forget what makes her different? Why the hell, all of a sudden, can Emily see three floating panels in the middle of the darkness? What is this? A video game with a lush green-eyed redhead as the main character? Daughters of the Void is a story told from multiple points of view, which occur in parallel. As if they were several series in one, where each protagonist advances at their own pace. At first, the story of each character will advance slowly, so I ask you to be patient. Soon, you will discover a story of extreme survival in a medieval fantasy world. A story, a bit dark, that can also be a bit comical at certain moments. But above all, it can be harsh and cruel to its protagonists. I’ve introduced LitRPG elements in a very soft and almost non-existent way at the beginning of the story. As the story progresses, they will become more and more abundant, depending on the protagonist. Emily is the main and first protagonist of "Daughters of the Void". After her; Dianna, Tanya and others. Above all, I’m looking for your immersion, so I will make you aware of most of the thoughts of the protagonists. I also want the reader to feel some uncertainty, putting yourselves in the shoes of some girls who can't find what they lack. I look for realism, but also to surprise myself. Around chapter 25 there is an awakening of the protagonists. Moment in which they will begin to behave as they really want to be. Unrivaled adventurers. Heroines of legend. The secondary protagonists were created to cover some deficiencies that I noticed that the series had when it was only Emily, so their chapters will be more sporadic. Tags and warnings give me creative freedom. This is the first story I've written, although they are not my first drawings. Be kind with your reviews. I know everything can be improved. Also, English is not my native language, neither is my brother's. He’s the one who translates the story. Constructive feedback is always welcome. We learn day by day. Everything helps us to improve the quality of this humble project. Let us know what you think.
