Chapter 10: Pawn ItTranslator: Guy Gone Bad
Mo Fei rubbed his chin, and sighed slightly, “Those bitches! They only speak for Prince Yu, but show no sympathy for me. To marry a man who is taller and more handsome than me, I am also under a lot of pressure, OK?”
Mo Yi immediately approved, “Yes, yes. Those bitches are so not considerate.”
Mo Fei patted the desk with his finger, saying, “By the way, the pendant we ‘borrowed’ last time, you sell it later. And then buy some delicious food.”
Mo Yi felt a little awkward, “Young master, didn’t you say the heat is on and we should lie low until the wind blows over?”
Mo Fei rolled his eyes, “That was before. Who am I now? I am the crown princess! What am I afraid of now? I’m not afraid being busted anymore. Even if I got busted, I could say I picked it somewhere.”
“Young master, you and the Prince Yu haven’t got engaged.” Mo Fei said, looking embarrassed.
Mo Fei cast a glance at Mo Yi, “What do you mean? You think I am not good enough for that damn prince?”
Mo Yi shook his head, “I didn’t mean that. You look amazing in every way. How is it possible you are not good enough for him? He is not good enough for you, I mean…”
Mo Fei chortled, “You have a good taste! Remember to buy me a Zhilin cake when you are back.”
Mo Yi nodded, “I know, young master.”
…
“Son of bitch! Asshole! What a low life…” Lin Xi looked furious.
Seeing her mom fly into a rage, Mo Yuwei asked, “Mother, what happened?”
“Last time I lost a pendant at Mo Fei’s place. He said it wasn’t him. But today his servant pawned it. Does he really take me as a fool?” Lin Xi said angrily.

“Mother, won’t you go denounce him?” asked Mo Yuwei.
Lin Xi said resentfully, “His status is different now. We can’t make trouble for him as we wanted like before.”
Mo Yuwei still wouldn’t give up, “But the Prince Yu hasn’t agreed to marry him.”
“Then still no.” said Lin Xi.
At this sensitive period, she couldn’t make a tiny mistake. Mo Fei might also have predicted this, so he would be bold enough to pawn her pendant to disgust her.
She’d like to see whether this son of bitch would really secure the position as the crown princess.
“Young master, your Zhilin cake.” said Mo Yi.
Mo Fei rubbed his hands while staring at the cake before him amorously, “Cake, dear cake! I missed you so much! Finally you are here. Prince Yu? Crown princess? They are nothing compared with you. I love you the most. I have waited for you for too long, you know?”
Mo Yi’s face got stiff, “Young master, when I bought the cake for you, I encountered the Madam’s people.”
Mo Fei cast at glance at him, “So what? I don’t give it a shit. How was your performance anyway?”
“I kept your words firmly in mind. Whatever situation I was in, even I got caught wetting my pants, I should remain calm and peaceful like nothing has happened. But maybe because I am not thick-skinned enough, I always couldn’t do good enough.” Mo Yi looked a little depressed.
Mo Fei frowned, “Not thick-skinned enough? Shame on you! Young man, you need experience and toughening. But I know this is a little hard for you. By the way, how many star coins did you pawn with it?”
Mo Yi stretched out three fingers, “Thirty thousand star coins! The chain on that pendant is made of rare metals. They said it’s quite valuable.”
Mo Fei blinked, “Really? Since it’s so valuable, I’m gonna “borrow” another one some other day.”
Mo Yi, “…”

The Arcane Emperor
Rainer, an amateur arcanist and college student, sought to create a new spell far surpassing the magic of the few he inherited from his grandfather. Yet the interference of an unknown event during the casting of his spell led him to be thrown through space and time. Where status screens were accepted as normal and class distinctions were quite clear. Leveling and achieving a class beyond a simple farmer or peddler was an affair of life and death combined with years of hard training. Goblins were not the fodder that they should be, orcs filled bedtime stories in order to scare children into behaving, and a dragon? You might as well pack up and move to another country.He, however, enters this world with the rare and powerful class of the Arcanist. How will the recently ardent seeker of magic find greater heights, or will he land in deeper depths?Additional Tags: Game elements, Another World, Mature Themes Cover Art: by NGT http://forum.royalroadl.com/showthread.php?tid=83944Current Word Count: 413,193Weekly Schedule: Long Chapter(s) Every Saturday Night EST

8 207The 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
