The Adventures Of The Young Master Chapter 15
Advertisement
"How really arrogant!" Mao composed himself and harrumphed. "I don't know where your confidence came from. You sure know how to boast high like the heavens."
"Then, who will do the job in your stead?" Gayu said in a calm manner. However, deep inside, he was shaking in anger that he wanted this man to be pummeled to the death! If not for just his position, this man would have been laying down dead now!
Jin Rou casually said, "It's Old Mo. He will do it in my stead. He is enough to deal with you three old fools."
"Me?" Old Mo staggered a step back with a pale expression. Although he knew that he could do it, he was afraid of humiliating the three old men! If that happened, regarding the humiliation that the old master chefs received, it was a guarantee that they would not let this go!
Young master, please stop doing this... This is bad for my heart.
The guild master knitted his eyebrows and looked at Old Mo, "You are siding with that man?"
The guild leader's impression towards Old Mo could be said like he was a friend. However, seeing that the Old Mo was contemplating whether he would do it or not and even looking at the young man with a pathetic-looking face. He could not help it but feel dismayed! Today was the critical event for the chef guild yet this happened because of an arrogant brat popping out of nowhere and was actually a young master of an examinee of the chef guild, the most promising to be the next guild leader, Old Mo!
As the guild leader who only wanted to improve the current chef guild, he only wanted to hand the position over for someone who is capable of seeing the guild over and do his job well. His choice was obviously Old Mo since he was so sure that he would pass the examination today. But after seeing the current events, he needed to reconsider his choice or else it would be a fatal threat to the chef guild! He could bear committing any grave sins but not the destruction of the guild!

Jin Rou noticed the hesitating Old Mo, "Old Mo, you compete in my stead. I guarantee that nothing will happen. So just be rest assured."
"This.." Old Mo did not know what to say and just gritted his teeth, "Okay then!"
Old Mo stepped forward and steeled his face. He could not bear to offend the three old men and the look of the guild leader was such painful to see but he could more not offend his benefactor! Besides, the young master himself assured him that nothing will happen. He did not know but he believed Jin Rou! Besides, by roping Jin Rou, the guild will be for a boost for a higher surface! Taking the serious guarantee of the young master, this was the best choice the heavens offered!
Modu harrumphed in disdain, "So you will do the job in that brat's stead. However, you must know that if you could not make an approving dish for us, you will also kowtow three times along with that arrogant young master of yours. Do you still accept the challenge?"
An examinee and an old friend of Old Mo said, "Mo, what are you doing? Why are you siding with that brat? Are you betraying our guild?"
Another one shouted, "That's right. That young man offended the masters. Why trouble yourself siding with him? He is dragging our feet and the destruction of our empire! Can't you see that? Or are you trying to turn a blind eye because he paid you an extravagant price?"
Hearing the last man saying that, Old Mo almost leaped in rage!
Extravagant price? You sure put words in an inappropriate way that seemed like you are trying to say that my young master is a but a treasure trove and I am getting the most benefits of it. If you all just knew...
If you all just knew that the arrogant man you guys were infuriated with is someone you could not hope to offend, let's see how could you kneel for forgiveness!

Old Mo disregarded the words of his companions and said, "Let's proceed with the challenge. What would be your like of cuisine?"
"You.." seeing Old Mo ignored him. He snorted and said, "Siding with that brat? Fine! Go seek your own demise then! But don't pull our feet with you!"
Mao smirked and said, "Examinee, do not worry. Whatever happened, we will not touch your guild or empire. This was only for the arrogant brat and that man."
The guild leader heaved a sigh of relief and said, "Then I thank the masters." He then looked at Old Mo with a look of disappointment, "This is your choice, Mo. From now on, whatever happens, you will not be part of the chef guild anymore. Go look to the other chef guilds at the surrounding empires!"
The crowd shook their heads and hold their breaths for a moment. The most promising master chef of the Quu Empire was banished all of a sudden. His prestige would fall instantly overnight and will be the center of the mockery and laughs.
Old Mo paled from hearing this.. his eyes were filled with sadness and indignant. He just wanted to protect them by doing this but he was wronged instead and branded as a traitor. No one even asked him why was he doing this! They just all jumped to conclusions and treat him as a traitor. He thought that there was someone who could understand him, but it seems he was wrong along!
Old Mo gritted his teeth and said, "Fine then. Did you want it that way? I hope you guys will not regret doing this to me!"
The examinees leaped in joy after hearing that Old Mo was banished from the guild. Those who lost hope competing for the position for the next guild leader were now brimming with high lives like they were reincarnated! Old Mo was the biggest obstacle in their path that they could not pass through, but now that he was gone for good, if no people were surrounding, they could had hopped from joy right now!
An examinee snorted in disdain, "Regret? why would regret losing you? You are the one who had a lost, not the guild or us! The guild could produce more capable than you!"
The other also nodded and approved by the examinee's claim, "That's right! You are not a lost to us!"
Seeing the chaotic conflict, Mao could not help but smirk, "Alright. After we deal with this two, we will proceed now to the examination for you all guys."
He then looked at Old Mo and said in a confident tone, "Our proposed cuisine is Alania Western Cuisine. We need three different dishes with different sauces and main ingredients. You need to finish it within one hour. Do you agree?"
"Alania Western Cuisine? He was doomed. That is an arduous task. He better just admit defeat rather than shaming himself."
"That's right. That cuisine is kinda hard for a mere one-star master chef. Three-star master chefs and so could only cook that. They were surely making things difficult for him. He was really finished."
"Humph. That's what he seeks. he offended the masters so he deserved it."
The three old men smiled deviously, they knew also that a three-star master chefs or higher could only make the cuisine.
Seeing the frozen Old Mo, Mao was gleeful and was about to say something when Old Mo said in a leisurely and arrogant tone,
"Is that all?"

Only Villains Do That
While waiting on an Akihabara train platform one day, ordinary high schooler Yoshi Shinonome was suddenly plucked from his normal life in Japan and whisked away by a beautiful goddess to Ephemera, a world of magic and adventure, to serve as her Hero and drive back the evil Dark Lord. This is not his story. Standing nearby at the moment Yoshi was isekai'd was a man named Seiji - a rude, cranky, misanthropic musician who was not at all pleased to find himself also snatched up and transported to Ephemera by the goddess's wicked sister, Virya. According to this self-proclaimed Goddess of Evil, the whole fantasy adventure thing was a game she and her sister played to stave off the boredom of immortality, and since the good goddess, Sanora, had picked her Hero...well, Virya needed a Dark Lord. A grown man with his own career and ambitions, Seiji has no interest in playing. Unfortunately for him, the call to adventure was not a request. Now, he must conquer Ephemera and defeat the Hero...or Virya promises to make him beg for the release of death before granting it. Playing along for his own survival, Seiji nonetheless is under no illusions who his true enemy is, and it's not the naive young would-be Hero from his own world. Placed in an impossible position, Seiji must make enough progress toward world domination to keep his sadistic patron goddess off his back, but not so much that he can't strike an accord with the forces of Good and convince the Hero Yoshi that it's the goddesses who are their mutual enemy. Forced to embrace Evil without being too evil, Seiji walks the razor's edge, building his forces and biding his time till he can get revenge on the goddesses and be free of them, his only certainty that he will not be getting out of this with his hands clean. A Dark Lord's gotta do what a Dark Lord's gotta do. Updates Tuesday and Friday. Most Patreon tiers get to read one chapter in advance of the public release!
8 932The Summoned - Complete
In a world of magic, ruled by many warring races, the human kingdoms are being pushed to the brink of collapse. In a desperate bid to gain the strength to stand on an equal footing with the other nations, they perform a forbidden ritual to summon combat slaves from another dimension. Unluckily for them, Mors Letus, recently named by their world's God of Death, was one of them. **** Warning **** This is a re-release (The Summoned) of the first book I wrote in partnership with my brother (who later forced the story to be pulled (It was released on his account here)). I have started writing my own version of the story (BOM: The Summoned) and will continue to primarily invest in that, though, now I have permission to re-release this one, I plan finish this as I have the drafts and it was close to the end of the first book. Many characters/scenes and events match/Will match BOM: The Summoned, especially in future arc's (Past Flatner forest). If you don't like spoilers, don't want to get confused between the two stories or hate first attempts at writing (god awful grammar/sentence structure and storytelling), I would advise against reading.
8 101The Eternal Vigil
The year is 2220, a time when governments and nation-states are slowly becoming a thing of the past. Instead, all prominent parts of human society are now organizing around the commands of three great Artificial Intelligences, owned and operated by the world's largest corporation. World peace has been achieved, and the very word 'politics' has disappeared from people's lips. Religion has largely disappeared, replaced in some parts by worshipping of the great AIs, but mostly substituted by a devotion to material goods and faith in the market. There is now a general consensus that the best form of government has been found. No, it is not democracy, nor is it autocracy or oligarchy. Instead, it is technocracy - rule by the learned, the intelligent, and the skilled. And who are more learned, intelligent, and skilled than the great AIs? Exactly, no one. The AIs will correct some market failures once in a while, but shall otherwise let the market be free. After all, the freer the market, the freer the people. Some may question how society advanced to this stage, but that is all they will do - question. Because they will not find answers, for history is no longer taught anywhere. After all, it is not a practical subject. One cannot get a decently paying job with a history degree. Society doesn't have any time for people to idly ponder about the past. No, this is a practical society of practical people: engineers, doctors, lawyers, developers, managers, bankers, soldiers, and the such. My name is Aiden Scivit and I used to be one such practical man: minding my own business, doing my job, with the faith that hard work will always be rewarded by the market...and that politics and philosophy were things thought of by idly people who leech off society. But this all changed, and here is my story, my history. Just because the stories of ages long past have been erased, does not mean that a brand new beginning cannot be created. The story is already finished but I still need to do some editing so a chapter should be released each day for a month. It is a bit political, as you can probably tell by the introduction, so there is that (it will low-key read like a philosophy dump 10% of the time, so really it's like Atlas Shrugged but liberal and worse lol). Also, I actually wrote this in grade 10 as part of my MYP Personal Project, and recently touched up on it for online publication. Finally, if you find the writing style passable and are interested in my other works, check out the one in the link below. It is a fantasy set in the Ancient Greek world, and is completed and uploaded in full: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/35099/the-oresteia-modernized
