Chapter 38: Potion Class (2)Translator: Guy Gone Bad
At this time the hour-glass female teacher walked in. She overlooked all the students down there and said, “In this class, we are going to the lab to make level 1 healing potion. Whoever fails to make it has to write a 10,000-word self-criticism.”
Yan Chen’s face immediately turned white and he said with a trembling voice, “Seriously?”
The teacher then looked Yan Chen and asked, “Yan Chen, you got a problem?”
Yan Chen said awkwardly, “Teacher, we haven’t consolidated the theories, how can we go to the lab now?”
The teacher smiled and then the smile on her face went stiff, “aren’t you ashamed? You are the worst at the theories of the whole class.”
Yan Chen, “…”
Mo Fei chuckled to himself. But soon enough the teacher’s cold sound was heard, “Yan Chen, look at you, huh? You are even behind Mo Fei. But you are better than him in all the other courses.”
Mo Fei, “…” What the hell? Since when he became the negative example? But wasn’t he excellent and outstanding, leaving all the others behind to catch up with? Now he became the goddamn negative example? What is wrong with this world?
“Come on. Let’s go to the lab now.” The teacher then walked out, only leaving the pattering footsteps of her high heels.
And then all the students followed behind.
“Mo Fei, have you ever made any potion?” asked Yan Chen.
Xu Zihan then said coldly, “Yan Chen, do you even need to ask? Given that kind of family background, eating may already have been a problem. How could he have money to learn to make potions?”
Seeing Xu Zihan was a little unhappy, Yan Chen grumbled, “We weren’t talking to you.”

“But I was talking to you. I want you to have a clear understanding of yourselves.” said Xu Zihan complacently.
When Xu Zihan was saying that, he missed his step and fell on the stairway.
Mo Fei smiled, “Zihan, I know you like gossiping. But you should watch your steps when you speak anyway. If you die from falling to the ground, don’t expect me to shed tears for you. And, whether your fiancé would shift his love to someone else, only god knows.”
“Mo Fei, it’s you!” shouted Xu Zihan.
Yan Chen disapproved, “Xu Zihan, you’re such a bully! You fell down due to your own carelessness. How can you blame Mo Fei?”
Xu Zihan looked at Mo Fei with his face twisted, “You tripped me.”
“Enough, Xu Zihan. Stop make a scene.” said the teacher blandly.
Xu Zihan looked at the teacher and then said no more reluctantly.
Mo Fei raised his eyebrows, thinking, “Damn Mo Yi, how dare you trip him before the teacher? Fortunately the teacher has a bad sight and didn’t see it.”
When Mo Fei walked into the lab, he got struck dumb.
It was worthy of the lab of the Imperial College. All experimental apparatuses were the top level.
Mo Fei looked at Yan Chen and said, “You look a little nervous.”
Yan Chen nodded, wearing a sad face, “I’m afraid I’ll never escape from writing the 10,000-word self-criticism.”
Mo Fei then blinked, “Don’t say that! Maybe things wouldn’t be that bad as you imagined.” Mo Fei tried to comfort him.
Yan Chen looked at Mo Fei, “I’ve ever made 100 bottles of healing potions and picked the best one for Chenchen.”
“And then?” asked Mo Fei curiously.
Yan Chen said grumpily, “Chenchen should’ve recovered in two days, but he ended up lying in bed for half a month after taking it.”

Mo Fei, “…”
Yan Chen said with a pitiful tone, “So I will never be the material to be a pharmacist.”
Mo Fei nodded, “I also think so.”
Yan Chen looked at Mo Fei as silly as a toad, which made Mo Fei a little uneasy. He then forced a smile, “I mean, what makes you lose the confidence?”
Yan Chen gave him a filthy look and then looked here and there restlessly.
“The star herbs are on your desks now, five potions. You have to refine them all. If none of the potions you make is qualified, you can go write your self-criticism after school. Now I’m gonna demonstrate it for you. And then you can make it yourselves.” said the teacher.
Yan Chen kept his eyes wide open and observed every move of the teacher carefully. And soon the teacher was done, and a bottle of blue potion was placed on the desk.
After the teacher was finished, Yan Chen scratched his head chagrined, while Mo Fei blinked his eyes, still chewing how the teacher had done it.
Yan Chen elbowed Mo Fei, “Mo Fei, did you see it clearly?”
Mo Fei was still immersed in it, “Yeah, sure. What a beautiful pair of hands! Ruddy, delicate, as soft as like boneless, slender and mellow, no word could exactly describe them properly.”
“Thank you for your praise, Mo Fei.” a silver voice then was heard from behind.
Mo Fei’s face immediately went stiff. He immediately put on a smile, “Teacher, your hands are too pretty. I’m just saying what I feel.”
The teacher grinned and then said spookily, “Since you appreciate my hands so much, I have made a decision. If you can not make qualified potions, you’ll write a 20,000-word self-criticism.”
Mo Fei heaved a sigh. Women! You can neither praise them or scold them! So troublesome!
Yan Chen then looked at Mo Fei pitifully, “Mo Fei, my condolences!”
Mo Fei nodded, “It’s fine. I can hold it.”

The Eighth Warden
Cast out from his knightly order for using magic, Corec has no idea what lies ahead. Leaving his homeland to make his own way in the world, he finds himself linked to a beautiful woman through a mysterious rune.

I post the chapters here as I write them. There's also a revised version of each book that's collected and published as an ebook and paperback.

Blood & Noodles
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] As they always have, humanity hunts the gods roaming the world, craving the supernatural power that flows within their veins. Even a drop is zealously guarded, passed from master to student through the ages. It is with this stolen power that the Blooded - those with divine blood coursing through them - grasp beyond mortality and achieve prestige, power, and greatness. Yet, for every fraction of power gained, thousands perish, slain by the gods' supernatural prowess. But everything is beginning to change. Eight years ago, for the first time in human memory, a god was felled. Part-time chef and full-time nuisance Orvi wants nothing to do with gods. Living in a derelict city, his only concerns are ensuring his adopted family's restaurant is prosperous and how to best beat the neighbourhood boys in a fight. If he's lucky, he might even snag a date with the farmer's daughter at the market. But even though he cares nothing for the gods or their blood, the world won't leave him alone forever. Because to reach godhood, one must first leave their humanity behind. *** The first arc of Blood & Noodles follows the adolescent Orvi as he attempts to navigate his rapidly changing home and - by his own definition - protect his family. The story is told almost entirely in the first-person, from the perspective of a teenager who isn't always the sharpest tool in the shed. There are tragic elements, especially in the current arc. It's character-focused and driven, though the protagonist's shenanigans are backdropped by a world operating independently from him. Orvi's a generally light-hearted character, and though the story veers into darker territory, I also want it to be able to make readers smile. Action sequences, despite the fantastical elements, are meant to be grounded and clearly-conveyed; Orvi is a brawler, not a warrior. I'm trying to write a story that's enjoyable to read and flows nicely, mainly because it's more fun to write. I'm also trying to improve my writing, so any feedback, whether positive or negative, is welcome!
