Chapter 395
“From today on, this fellow is our good friend, he is also our brother!”
“What’s with the politeness? We are brothers . If you keep acting so courteously towards me, I will get angry!”
“We found the place Thousand Storms Sword Rhodes used to train!”
“ . . . . . . ”
“Here, the Thousand Storms Sword!”
“Haha, it’s found at the training place of Peerless Swordmaster Gideon in his late years!”
“It was in an underground cave . As it was flooded by water, it took great efforts to sort it out . . . . . . ”
“See that? My Brother Rinloran and his friends won!”
“You must properly learn the Thousand Storms Sword . . . . . . ”
Scenes after scenes of Redwin flashed across Rinloran’s mind, eventually stopping at Redwin spitting out blood and telling him that line .
Rinloran could even tell that Redwin had not finished his sentence .
What he did not finish was not ‘You must properly learn the Thousand Storms Sword and revenge for me’, but ‘You must properly learn the Thousand Storms Sword, or you will also get killed by such a strong enemy . ”
That was because Redwin forever regarded loyalty and friendship more important than himself!
“Idiot! Why would an idiot like you die!?”
“I can’t even . . . . . . can’t even properly call you a brother for once . . . . . . How can you die!?”
“Come back to life! Wait until I recover some arcane particles, I will heal you!”
Blood tears streamed down Rinloran’s cheeks .
Rinloran let out beastly roars as he shook Redwin’s body that was losing heat .
“Rinloran . . . . . . ” Moss pulled Rinloran as he could not bear to watch any longer .
“Get lost!”
Rinloran turned around with a furious expression . Moss unconsciously took a step back seeing that .
“Maelstrom Team . . . . . . You imbeciles, you would even kill such an idiot!”
“I will definitely . . . . . . definitely learn the Thousand Storms Sword!”
. . . . . .
“Belo, what are you doing!?”
Ayrin watched the whole scene in a daze . Suddenly, he saw Belo carving something on his own forehead .

The sharp nails carved deep wounds on the forehead, forming a ‘kill’ character .
“Belo, Rinloran is suffering so much now, yet you still have the mood to write characters on your forehead . ” Stingham watched Belo and groaned .
“This is the ancient beastman tribe’s blood vengeance mark, unending till one side dies . ” Carter explained from the side .
Liszt and the rest had surrounded them .
“Blood vengeance mark, unending till one side dies?” Stingham and the others were shocked, “Belo . . . . . . ”
“What’s the fuss? These guys killed my teammate’s brother, doesn’t that mean they’re not giving me face? Would I let them off?” Belo pushed up his spectacles with a chilling expression, “This great me won’t even give them the chance to lick my feet . . . . . . ”
“Who was it . . . . . . Rinloran, who assassinated Boss!?”
The Brotherhood members cried out and dove onto Redwin .
“It’s the Maelstrom Team!” Moss shouted out with bloodshot eyes .
“The Maelstrom Team of House Baratheon? The Maelstrom Team, the Baratheons, both will be the sworn enemies of River Bend Academy from this moment onwards! Those afraid of making the Baratheons and Maelstrom Team into enemies are free to withdraw from Brotherhood!” The obedient-looking Anderson, who was called the tactician of Brotherhood, roared out with tears . At the same time, he cut his palm and swore with his blood .
“What’s the belief of our Brotherhood? It’s loyalty! It’s comradery!” Many Brotherhood members roared back in response . They also cut their palms and swore with their blood, not a single one withdrew from Brotherhood .
“This incident hasn’t been investigated . What proof is there to accuse the Maelstrom Team of us Baratheon? Don’t get incited by someone with ulterior motives and used by them!”
A cold voice came from the stand behind them .
It was a man wearing the uniform of Golden Stag Academy .
“It’s Ghastly Wave Master Golan, a professor in Golden Stag Academy, and one of the lords of Baratheon!” Someone immediately recognized the identity of the man and shouted .

“Do you know why?”
The obedient-looking Anderson immediately changed into a furious expression . He took a glance at Rinloran, then at the lord from Baratheon, and told him word by word, “Because he is a brother of our Brotherhood, and you are not . So we believe in him and not you!”
“Then you will regret it!” That lord was taken aback for a moment, then sneered and left .
“What happened?”
“The Maelstrom Team . . . . . . actually killed a student from River Bend Academy who was Rinloran’s friend, after failing to assassinate Rinloran?”
The members of Dragon Breath Academy team looked at one another and turned furious .
“Those guys are freely bullying the weak just because they are strong . . . . . . Those people are no different from Evil Dragon followers and bandit teams . . . . . . Aren’t we born to fight such people!?”
Audrey took a deep breath and spoke in an icy tone while looking at the stand .
“Ayrin . . . . . . ”
At that moment, Stingham and the rest suddenly felt the surrounding temperature rising .
They turned around and saw Ayrin’s body releasing an astonishing amount of heat . His muscles were so tense they seemed about to explode .
“Ferguillo . . . . . . Redwin . . . . . . ”
Ayrin did not grasp the situation at first and was a little confused . However, in his current state, the world before his eyes seemed to have become unlimited rising hot air .
The feeling of wanting to destroy everything filled his heart .
Especially when he saw the lord from Baratheon leaving, he just wanted to rush up and fight .
“Ayrin, endure it a while longer!”
At that moment, Liszt walked next to Ayrin and put his hand on Ayrin’s shoulder .
“Next will be our war against the Maelstrom Team and Baratheon . But our battlefield is not here . ”
“What? There was an assassination on the stand?”
“Someone assassinated a student from River Bend Academy, and was a friend of Rinloran?”
“There can even be an assassination on the stand, those Office of Special Affairs bunch still haven’t caught the perpetrator? What the heck are they doing!?”
“Who dares to commit assassination in the venue of the national tournament finals . . . . . . That’s too much!”
Waves of anger swept across the entire stand with Rinloran and River Bend guys at the center .
The fervent cheers a minute ago became ignited fury .
. . . . . .
. . . . . .
In a desolate alley of the Eichemalar main city, four silhouettes gathered .
“We failed our assassination this time . ”
One of them said, “Rinchenson, you still made a mistake due to your pride . You shouldn’t have killed that River Bend student . That River Bend student is the president of River Bend Brotherhood, the son of Rapids City’s lord . What you did is equivalent to pushing the entire Brotherhood to Rinloran’s side, as well as instigating River Bend and Clan Tarly to fight against our House . Not only that . . . . . . Killing anyone from the Holy Dawn Academy during the tournament could still be treated as an accident, but an assassination after they won . . . . . . will only incur the wrath of the audience, bringing great disadvantage to us Baratheon . ”
“It’s fine . ”
One of them smirked, “Hadn’t us Baratheon been fighting against everyone all the time? Pushing River Bend Brotherhood to Rinloran or not doesn’t matter, because they will soon be killed by us . They won’t have a chance to become lords or create corps that would pose a threat to us Baratheon . As for the crowd incitement . . . . . . as long as we kill the Holy Dawn Evil Six, those rage will become fear . Us Baratheon never lived depending on praises, but lived depending on ability and prestige . ”
“Those brats improve at an amazing speed, we cannot give them time . We must first create a chance to eliminate the Evil Six . Without Liszt and the rest, those brats can easily be killed . ” Another voice rang in the alley, but there was no silhouette .

City of Champions Online
Having found the tragic truth that an art degree is worth less than the paper it is printed on, Jacquelyn Jones is frustrated with her dead end work as a graphic designer for a marketing firm, finding new ways to try and convince people that this week's 50 cent off sale is actually worth driving to the store. She's tried other VRMMORPGs, but they've all been fantasy-based, with a couple sci-fi games thrown in. But she wants something more, something Super. Superhero VRMMOs have had a... subpar reception in the past, in part due to the fact that the nature of most MMOs makes for fairly unheroic tales. After the couple hundredth time blasting the same group of mooks from the same faction on the same street corner of the same city, using the same powerset as everyone else because you only have a few options, it is hard to think of yourself as a hero anymore. But then she heard about City of Champions Online. For the first time, a developer partnered with a tabletop RPG maker to use their system to create a VRMMORPG, and it was one of the systems designed to be used with superhero games! And despite the name, there was no getting stuck in the same city as all the other players. The game world was a detailed replica of the real world, down to having some of the same shops and restaurants in town. She could be whoever she wanted, whatever she wanted. Now, she just has to find a way to become the heroine she's always wanted to be.

Starchild
“It’s life’s illusions I recall. I really don’t know life at all.” from the song, Both Sides Now, by Joni Mitchell Starchild is an adventure novel set within an understanding of reality that is rooted in Eastern spiritual traditions.It takes as its starting point experiments in remote viewing that were genuinely undertaken by the American military in the nineteen-nineties under the name of the Stargate Project. It then imagines how a more advanced attempt to weaponise the capabilities of consciousness might have been developed in the present day.The story then explores how Ultimate Reality might respond to such a threat.Deep, elemental forces thus bring together Samantha Martin and Sahadeva Varma, old colleagues from the Stargate Project, to avert the apocalyptic consequences of this military attempt to weaponise consciousness. This fast-paced story spans genres including romance, action, adventure, science fiction and more. Although this story is based on concepts drawn from established spiritual traditions, these have sometimes been extrapolated to the point of very extreme speculation for the needs of an adventure story.Much of the underlying philosophy, however, as explained in the dharma talks given by Samantha Martin, is paraphrased from the guidance of respected spiritual teachers. Scheduling: Starchild is a previously unpublished novel of one hundred thousand words which was serialised in weekly instalments over twenty-five weeks from 15th November 2021 to the 29th April 2022. Each instalment contains five chapters – an average of approximately four thousand words in each instalment.

The 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
