" I don't want to work with her.", Axle straight out rejected the offer.
Lisa who was already not happy with this couldn't take it anymore. She didn't say anything. But how dare he. This was the first time a boy had probably rejected an opportunity to be with her. Her pride has been hurt.
" I too am not interested in working with him." Lisa said with a frown.
There was lightning sparkling between their eyes.
" Enough!!"
" We value discipline and Unity. There won't be any changes. Move and do your work. And if I find any half-hearted work, you better be prepared.", the old lady said with narrowed eyes before taking off with Kevin.
Without any choice, everyone started to move towards their designated location.
…
Academy Field
Max and Elly had quietly walked all their way till here.
Max could feel her constant gaze on her back. He could feel the sweat on his forehead. It appeared that she had a good memory and still remembered the incident.
Entering the grounds, they began to pick the garbage in the bags provided to them.
" You should mind your own business.", she finally spoke.
" What do you mean? ", Max asked in confusion. He decided to feign ignorance. Even though he wasn't scared of her. He had to think about the person behind her.
Her name had Lorenz in it.
The first thing which appeared in everyone's mind after hearing it was, Garry Lorenz.
He had heard several stories about this legendary man whom even his dad admired a lot.
" I don't know why you did that. Nor do I care. But If something would have happened to my friend. You would have to pay for her." Elly slowly said as she picked the wrapper into her pouch.

' Even though she looks cool and calm. She can be scary. But she at least has a good heart. A person who cares about her friend can't be a bad person.', Max thought.
It would all have been good. But the only thing that Max couldn't digest was this friend of hers who apparently was not so good.
…
An hour later..
Max had finally filled the bag with garbage. But it wasn't over. This field was freaking huge.
He kept the bag and took out a new one and then moved to a different position and began his work. As he worked, he noticed the girl in the distance. He had to say that Elly didn't slack off. She was hardworking.
At this moment, a group of seven people entered the field. 5 boys and two girls.
The person leading them had a perverted expression on his face. One of his hands was hooked around the girl's neck and it gently snuck into her blouse.
This bastard was openly groping a person and no one seemed to care about it. The guys around him only laughed.
Even the girl was giving him flirtatious looks.
Max didn't notice this group of people. If he did, he would definitely find the face of the leading figure familiar.
He was Eric, another one of the tyrants. This bastard ran amok because of his father who was one of the directors in the Academy.
Suddenly Eric's eyes lit up at the sight of a familiar figure. He was a lustful guy to begin with. From the very first day, he was thinking of approaching Elly. But he wasn't able to do so because of her nasty friend. But today she was alone.
A chance.
He was really excited and immediately let go of the girl beside him.

Elly noticed this group of people. More accurately she noticed the lustful gaze of this guy. It was an ordinary situation for her and she had gotten used to it.
On the other side, when Eric saw Elly looking towards them. He got even more excited.
" You all wait here." He commanded and started taking huge strides towards Elly.
But in his excitement, he didn't notice the bag of garbage in front of him. His foot hit the bag of garbage spilling all the waste out of it.
" F*ck "
Eric cursed as he saw the dirt on his expensive shoes. His shoe was covered in sticky black liquid. It looked like there was some liquid content in the bag too.
Hearing the noise, Max turned around to see an hour of his work go to waste.
He frowned and his face started to turn red. But he calmed himself down. He recognised the guy and he definitely didn't want to get into trouble again. So he ignored him and continued to work.
" Who the hell kept it here!!! ", Eric shouted in anger. This dude had a short temper to begin with.
Max frowned. He didn't want to get in trouble. But he wasn't a person who would be willing to let anyone trample over him.
He stood up and turned around.
" I kept it there. ", Max said.
" You bas-", he stopped midway as he remembered something.
He didn't want to have a bad impression in front of Elly.
He glared at Max but didn't do anything and just walked past him.
Seeing him leave, Max too got back to his work.
" Hi there, I am Eric. I don't know if you know me but we are in the same class. I was absent in the last class. I was really wondering if you could help me out a bit ", Eric said in a dignified manner.
Elly turned her head and said with a smile, " I am very busy and don't have any time. "
She got up picking the garbage bag and looked towards Max before saying, " I am done. I will be going now."
And without giving a look to Eric, she left him standing there.
Eric's face turned green. This was a humiliation. He really wanted to press this girl down and vent out his anger. But he knew that it wasn't possible for she was not someone to be trifled with.
He turned and look towards Max.

The Mystifying Diviner
Content warning, there is cursing in the story and there will be some pretty heavy sexual innuendos in it also. I don’t really plan to write gore, but there will be fight scenes. Fair warning to readers, it is a slow start. But hopefully it is enjoyable for you to read. Follow the story of an old chef who was lucky to be selected to become a system host. Well maybe not so lucky, because gaining the system killed him. He will be given a system that might not be the best match for him. While also having to deal with a snarky system monitor who might not be that helpful most of the time. He will also use his new found powers to enjoy life in a new younger body. What you can expect from this story is bad writing, poor grammar, and slow pacing maybe. Food, cooking, comedy, slice of life, fighting, exploring, tournaments, scamming and probably face slapping. I mean who doesn’t like a good face slapping? This is my take on a cultivation story, a lot of Eastern stuff will be crammed into with a mix of Western. This story started as a goal for myself to write 60,000 words in a month for NaNoWriMo. I was able to do it even with taking days off and not writing. I plan to keep writing the story, but at a slightly slower pace. I am aiming for 2-3 chapters a week now with about 4-7k words written. This is only posted on RoyalRoad currently, and I have no plans to change that for now. Cover art is by Jack0fheart [Participant in the 2021 Royal Road Writathon Challenge for the month of November 2021]

Truck-kun Gets Sacrificed
Driscoll is my own version of a world with a game-like "system" of endless possibilities. MC has his own status, classes, skills, magic, and a living greatswordstaff in a world of monsters, demi-humans of all kinds, and even the supernatural. Sound good? Well, at first for Tru, it was a dream come true(I'm sorry). At least until reality hits him again and again. His quest from God is vague and must be discovered by him along the way. Hopefully, he can figure that out someday but for now, this new world's threats and his potential for power are motivation aplenty. With His new partner by his side, he's ready to embark on his mission of infinite sacrifice, however many lives it takes. The setting is pretty standard for fantasy, with my beginner attempts at writing. Litrpg elements are definitely involved here but It'll calm down as the story progresses and the world's foundation is laid. Judeo/Christian themes and principles take a major role and will be a backbone for much of the story. The fights will paint a picture in the mind rather than just be a bunch of number crunching. While he is meant to be a sacrifice to save all of Driscoll, he needs to gain enough power and influence to be a worthwhile sacrifice, or so he thinks. And so carnage will ensue as he avoids death as best he can while at the same time sacking himself for others. Truck Coon is your average determined, jiu-jitsu practitioner, tax associate that just started his new career. He dies to save kids from a semi-truck(Truck Coon got truck-kun'd, making him Truck-kun) and is transported to another world rather conventionally by God. Upon his arrival, he is quickly confronted with his first conflicts in the wild. Give it a shot and let me know what you think. Chapters are currently between 2300 and 4000 words and I try to post weekly, but also deal with severe limitations that cause late posts often. I have zero actual experience with writing stories and only recently started reading web novels in 2020. If you end up hating it, let me know your thoughts in a detailed comment or review, especially if you love it though :D I want to get better and welcome the feedback, so expect changes to be made with any flaws that y'all point out which I don't already have plans to address in future chapters. That being said, keep it constructive in nature, please. I have no Idea how the formatting and such will go, so if you like or dislike some techniques I try, give me that well-appreciated feedback! Thank you for reading.
