One by one they enter the room, the room is dark with only illuminated by a dimmed light from the window, the four men move slowly without make the sound they walk carefully not to hit anything than they hear snore from the bed although the sound is a bit weird for a woman but they have no time to think that.
The room is quite small so they can see the bed right away but because the darkness they only see black shapes, one of them accidentally hit the table and knocked the teacup on the table suddenly everyone froze, they look at the movement on the bed, fortunately, no movement from the person under the blanket so the four men sigh in relief.
They slowly move again until they reach the edged of the bed, one of the men raised his cleaver they want to surprise the poor woman but suddenly from under the blanket a giant tiger roar at them and the four men scream in shocked in that moment Lory come out from her hiding and throw them hand size knife towards them.
Its happened so fast the four men didn't have time to dodge, the knife hit there uncritical point on there body but the intoxicating drug on the knife make them hazy and limp in the next second they all fall on the floor with 'Bang!' sounds.
Lory sigh while Shin Jiu and the little monkey got out from under the bed, who knows everything happened so quickly.
"Is it over…?" Shin Jiu asked.
"For now…" she replied, she only make them unconscious because she didn't feel necessary to kill them somehow they all look desperate.
Suddenly the door kicked open, Lory reflex is hiding the boy behind her and raised her dagger in front of her, the boy unconsciously clenched on Lory sleeve with fright.
"Thank goodness, you both alive!" the innkeeper grip on his butcher knife become loose he looks very relief but than he was shocked when he sees the four-man on the floor "Ar….are….they dead?" he stutters.
"No, just unconscious…"Lory said calmly, she didn't see malice in the innkeeper's eyes so she becomes laxer.
"That's good" He heaved in relief than he realizes something "Both of you hurry to leave this place!" he said in haste.
"What's wrong?" Lory sees the urgent on his face.

"Mister, if they know you help us you're family will be in danger!" she worriedly said.
"I know but we didn't have anywhere to go and we don't have money everything we had is in this place" the innkeeper smiled bitterly "Don't worry about us, we will think of something!" he said again.
"Sister Luo we can't leave them…"Shin Jiu was touch by the innkeeper's selflessness and he also worries with them, Lory can be more agree they're's a high chance they would be killed or hurt because of them.
Lory gets behind the carriage she waves her hand and a pile of gold taels appears, she wrapped everything with cloth into a bundle, than she shoves the bundle into the innkeeper's hands "You leave this place, don't bother to take anything just leave!"
Lory push Shin Jiu to climb the carriage, the innkeeper and his wife exchanged glance when they peek inside the bundle they were utterly stunned, they never seen this much money in there life not even in there dream now he understands when the girl said don't bother to bring anything.
The tiger and the monkey were jumped inside the carriage when the innkeeper suddenly speak.
"They are not always like that you know, the men that try to kidnap you're Brother," he said with teary eyes "They used to be kind, honest and a hard worker men but after that Demon come, the governor...everything changed even them….they just hungry!" he choked on his tears.

"Not bad" Lory said while staring at the bow, it can't be compare with Zhao Li Xin made for her but this will do for now.

Other man become impatient the hasten his horse to catch the carriage, he never thought it would be so much trouble to catch one weak woman and a child, he becomes ashamed and furious for his painstaking effort, what would other people said if he can't get them, he would become there laughingstock.
He lick his horse harshly to make it run faster, the horse gallop leaving dirt behind it trail and the carriage is getting closer he stretches his hand to reach the carriage, he got excited the carriage curtain only an inch from the tip of his finger but when he got impatient suddenly something screech and jump out of the carriage and throw him to the ground.

Ph. D. In Sorcery
Follow Anastasia, the unlucky physicist turned wizard, as her reality gets turned upside down and she is plunged into a world of gods, magic, swords, and adventure. Short and sweet description, anything more would be a spoiler and I detest those. Now, what you can expect from reading: This is my first time writing, or better said allowing someone else to read that mess so don’t raise your expectations too much. Still, I will try to keep the story flowing, while also devoting as much time as I can to editing. In my opinion, the story is written at a faster pace than normal with time skips here and there. I will do my best to not allow the faster pace to ruin the story by using those time skips to raise the skill of the main character. I am mainly looking for feedback while I test myself in new and unexplored waters. I did put a lot of thought into worldbuilding and the magic system, it is something that has been mulling inside my head for years before I sat down to write anything down. First and foremost I am an engineer and not a writer. I will try to do my utmost to make the world logical and consistent, but sometimes I might not express that in a way that’s clearly understood. I have a rough outline with several possible endings, but the story will change and evolve as I do. But in case I have to stop for whatever reason, the story will get an ending. It will be done even if I have to send coded messages from a bunker. I am a big fan of the Dresden Files so you can be certain that everything mentioned will in most cases be used, with a few red herrings sprinkled in the mix. But that also means I will enjoy putting the main character through the meat grinder while I eat popcorn and laugh from my evil lair. Physics, and to be more precise electromagnetism, quantum field theory, general and special relativity are very interesting topics for me that I research in my spare time. That means that the premise of the story will be using that research to bring logic to magic. Stupid I know, magic is magic, but to me, there is no reason why there shouldn’t be a concrete set of rules there. But it is still magic and that allows me to play with some things that shouldn’t normally be possible. I will focus on evolving the main character and having her react as anyone normal would, from my perspective. There will be scenes of battle, gore, and sexy times, but I will not go into too many details, counting on your imagination to fill the gaps. There will be plenty of combat, even battles ranging from a few dozen, a hundred, and thousands of participants. I could go on but there isn’t much to say that would convince anyone to read, either you thought the title was cool or you liked the poster. Or not, but after several days in photoshop, that’s the best I could do. And the title was originally Sorceress with a Ph.D. The new one makes a little less sense but I like the ring of it more for some reason. I just hope someone enjoys what I write as much as I do. In the end that is the reason, I am doing this, because I enjoy putting my thoughts on paper and seeing the outcome. Credit for the art: https://www.artstation.com/artwork/e0o8nw

The Blood Queen
The rain fell from the sky with ferocity and smashed into the pavement filling the air with the sound of a stampede. The noise was deafening as I struggled to stand up. The blood from my wound was covering the ground beneath me and I covered it with my hand as I pushed off the pavement. On my feet now I struggled to step towards the grass. Through the howling wind and pounding raindrops I could hear what sounded like a chant, calling me and drawing me towards the cliffs edge. "Vienna, my Queen, my blood Queen" I started to move my feet faster until I could run towards the edge. Only when I was at the edge did I turn and look back one last time at the castle behind me. I could see him standing on the balcony, he was screaming my name. I could just hear it over the rain. I unclipped my red cape and whispered goodbye to him. As he jumped off the balcony to run towards me I leaned backwards and let my body fall with the rushing water to the river far down below. I carried her whispers with me to the dark edge until they vanished.
