Life Drain System Chapter 48

"It is as you say, although, the thing is, I do not even know where to begin looking. Also, as you said, she may go through something terrible or be spelled in any number of ways to change. I really hate to think about her going through such filthy and cruel means, but at least there is a chance." Yue said with a small glimmer of hope. What is keeping him from being sad and unfocused is mainly the fact that he has responsibilities, and there are more than just one person he has to take care of.
Yin understanding how he felt, just stayed silent, as in the world he came from such things were quite common. Well kidnapping that is, among various other vicious activities.
A few hours later, after such thoughts had passed Yueliang got up and beckoned Yin to follow him back to the others now that it was sun rise. The two left Yue's house, and told the first Orc they came across. "Please let everyone know there will be a meeting in the town square (is actually a circle with a fountain in the middle)."
The sky orc child nodded and started letting everyone know, whilst Yin and Yue waited for everyone to arrive.
A few minutes after everyone had arrived, they quieted down, and Yue began to speak. "I want to start this off by saying, thank you to all those who worked hard to defend our new home. You all did great, however there will be some changes now that I have experienced this new event with you all. First off like usual, you all will work one day, the next you can research or whatever, however the day after you will now either be practicing archery, or some martial art, or you will be cultivating or doing magic. This will not only ensure our safety as a whole but as individuals as well.
I know that you are all stronger than the average human, even on this planet. However there are exceptions, and once the ship is ready we will face more lethal threats at every turn. Also, I noticed some of you were only aiming at the enemy group, not individuals, thus making it dangerous for myself and anyone who would have joined us. I do not blame you as I know you focus more on developing new things rather than fighting.

Now aside from that, as I have promised, I have provided the capability to buy what is in my shop. Well at least the basics, anything more advanced you will have to come to me. Thus once you have enough just visit one of the shops in our lovely town, and you should be able to get what you want, or the bank if you want to trade for money, it is up to you. Either way, clearly I need to work more on the defense of this town lest we risk our lives. So before I conclude this meeting, is there anything you would like to ask of me?" Yue announced quite seriously.
Rei stepped forward and said. "I would like to ask about the ship, where are we to build it? There are not many safe and hidden places for us to do so."
Yue replied. "Ah yes, thank you. First off, I am going to blow up part of the mountain, then you should be able to build it in there, after I make it wider and taller in every direction. Remember this needs to be large enough to hold not just our current number but those who may join in the future, as well as all the rooms for building, eating, and everything else. In other words a flying city."
Rei nodded in acceptance, and Orslaine stepped forth asking. "I was just wondering when we will get the rest of the materials, as we only have enough to start building some of the engines and what not."
"Of course, do not worry, that will be soon. In the mean time, please work on what you can. We will have a lot more money coming in soon. Also, I will be taking some of you on missions soon, so we can keep our progress steady. Is that all?" Yue replied.
Seeing that the place was silent, and no one had anything more to say Yue continued. "Please go back to whatever you have to do today. This meeting is now over. I hope you all are doing well, and if you are uncomfortable please let me know so I can make this place better." He said as he started walking off the stage back to his house.
Everyone in the crowd dispersed each going in their own way to get done whatever it was they were to do prior. However one particular individual ran up to Yue, and called out. "My king, please wait a moment."

Hearing this Yue turned around to see who was calling him. He saw Rei, with a big burlap sack over his shoulder and Yue asked curiously. "Yes, what is it?"
"We were told to loot everything of the enemies by Yin last night after the battle. This is all the money, and miscellaneous items. All the armor and weapons have been brought to a blacksmith shop to repair then be brought to the garrisons, unless there is anything you wanted? Here you are." Rei said.
Yue received the bag from Rei and felt it was lighter than he thought because of his stats, and threw it into his inventory. Yue then replied. "Thank you, is there anything else?"
"No, please have a nice day." Rei replied and ran off back to work, as there is still much to be done.
Yue having thought of his stats then remembered he needed to check his notifications, then thought. 'Notifications'

As Yue viewed his stats he wondered. 'What is this new stat class? I thought I already had a few. Yang could you explain this to me?'
"Master, what you called classes back on earth were more like fields of practice of sorts. You can have multiple classes, just as you do fields of practice, however a class sort of determines certain aspects of your life. Normally you would not have this appear until level 20, and having all your stats at 180. However you have managed to unlock it earlier somehow, thus it will be more difficult for you to pass.
Also, I should probably explain before you begin. First off you have trials intermittently after hitting level 5. You have not had this because of your current beginner protection, this also protected you from being punished for not doing your daily exercise. To the main point, because you unlocked classes early, your beginner protection will no longer have effect. At the same time this trial will decide your future path in a way, thus make every choice carefully." Yang replied.
"This is not some glitch in the system right?" Yue asked just in case.
"Hahaha, you are hilarious, for one the system was created by a being far more advanced than you or anyone you know. Either way, no it is not a glitch, a hidden loop hole created by your ancestor yes. He probably made it incase there was someone talented and quick at growing stronger like you. Thus, do not doubt the system, I analyze myself constantly to search for errors, therefore you need not worry. However you should be trying to prepare for your trial." Yang swiftly replied.
"May I have more hints aside from choices?" Yue asked.
Yang replied kind of surprised. "I thought you would like it to be a surprise like usual, although I guess since it affects your future you are probably curious. Here is one and your final hint. Your life will be tested, to see what class best suits you."

Owning a cute little pet
Ryan, a young student at a university who enjoys collecting various rare animals, accepts a rather unusual offer. He has to house a young woman called Shiina White at his flat and take care of her daily needs. In exchange he receives a substential salery from the young female artist who just doesn't seem to be able to live on her own. Luckly for him Shiina is not only beautiful and naive, but also hates wearing clothes at home. As you might have guessed from this synopsis this story is inspired by the anime sakurasou no pet na kanojo, to be exact I took the main herione Shiina Mashiro as the draft for the female main character of this novel Shiina White (Yep it is a wordplay as Shiro means white in Japanese, I also switched the forname with the lastname). That said this is no fanfiction, but rather my take on the whole story and a far more lewd take as well!

The Paths of Magick
Credits: Story by Xcaliburnt. Cover Art by @Bervolart. Magick, the power to bend the laws of reality. All because of a mystical substance known as mana. Mages follow the Paths to achieve power, for there is no more addictive chase. Each Path winds and twists, forcing mages through the flames of adversity and challenge. Though the operative word is "path", the reality is far less straightforward. Instead of a road, Paths are like the branches of world trees, erupting into the heavens, intertwining, and ending in sharp snaps. Only the strongest reach the sky. There are several Paths, and many Ways to walk them—variations of the same Path, and like the stars, they are endless. Magick is the sacred flame that scours the fat, rendering the truest self. Superfluous flesh melting away to show the skeleton of one's being. A chance for ascension—apotheosis. Though not every mage works to godhood, if they survive long enough, It is inescapable. Witness the lives of those that tread the knife's edge of self-destruction. Each one intertwined in their search for answers, revenge, and, most of all: power. These individuals have all lost something precious—irreplaceable—and In search of filling the void left behind, they have taken up the mantle of a mage. Per aspera ad astra. Ad mortem vel divinitatis. (Through adversity to the stars. To death or divinity.) There is no consistent release schedule except my consistent inconsistency. Besides, there’s like a thousand pages worth of content, how can—you already read it? Goddamn. Oh, and there is a very long hiatus between volumes as I intend to edit and rewrite a lot. What to Expect: This story is progression fantasy, so expect a healthy dose of training. It's also heavy on slice of life, and it isn't entirely overarching-plot-driven. Expect characters to live their lives, and not always be on some quest to save the world. There's a lot of magic theory and discussion about it in the story. So, if you don't like impromptu lessons on sorcerous theory by traveling monster slayers, this might not be for you. But if you do like it, rejoice! For there is a lot of it. This is also heavy on prose, purple as a bruised eye. I use outdated, uneccesarily collegiate-level terms and play around with the writing style just for the heck of it. I find it fun to wax and wane poetic, and that might grate on you—I don’t plan to change this aspect of the Paths much if at all. Onto the viewer discretion is advised parts: This is grim-dark/ grim-heart. Take the tags seriously. There will be combat scenes that are brutal and horrifying. Fights to the death tend to be. This is a tale about medieval mercenaries (quite literal killers for hire), man-eating monsters, and eldritch gods beyond the material plane. Beside that, there will be traumatic events that are best left unread. I do not detail certain acts I find heinous enough, instead leaving some parts unwritten but still alludded to if not outright stated; there is simply no graphic narration thereof. This is not for the faint of heart.
