《A Slave To My Vengeful Lover》309 Who offered you the wine glass?
Advertisement
The moment we spend with my uncle, Mona takes Anna with her to check on her personally, and I got some private time to spend with my Rubeus uncle. When I am looking at him, he is already smiling by looking at my face.
Mark: Why are you smiling at me?
Rubeus uncle: You are grown up, Mark…
Mark: what makes you think that I am grown up?
Rubeus uncle: Your kiss...
Mark: What..?
Rubeus uncle: I saw when you are kissing my little girl at the engagement party, and I observed you, you elope with my little girl in the middle of the party when everyone are busy in dancing...
(By finishing his words, he is laughing at me, here comes my teasing uncle, he come back into my life to torture me with his teasing and now my sadistic friend and teasing uncle get together to kill me with their embarrassing words.)
Mark: Is that the only thing you want to say to me after you got consciousness?
(We both looked at each other laughed again.)
Rubeus uncle: Take proper care of my baby girl; she is very innocent and doesn't hurt her with your anger or attitude.
(Suddenly, Anna's mother beep sound vibrated. Is she got responded to my uncle or the topic my uncle is speaking about, i.e. about Anna?
But he didn't spell out Anna's; instead, he uses the term baby girl. How does she know that my uncle calls her daughter a baby girl?)
Mark: I feel weird by listening to your words, uncle.
Rubeus uncle: Weird?
Mark: Yes, because more than me you are the one who hurt people with your anger and attitude…
Rubeus uncle: I don't get angry unless there is a strong reason, Mark…
Mark: Then, tell me the reason behind you left me these two years…

Rubeus uncle: I didn't leave you alone because of my anger or attitude, Mark, I left you for a reason, and soon I will let you know once I got the valid proofs. But I agree I made a mistake by leaving you and Mona alone without taking care of both of you. I have regrets regarding that.
(When he is speaking to me, his readings in the monitor are going high, So I didn't argue with him further about the reason behind he left us, instead I diverted the topic to business matters which he likes the most and we both involved deeply in discussing some business matters. In the middle he gave me the valid tips about business which are very useful for me. In-between our discussion, Tom entered the room.
Tom: Hello, young man, how are you?
Rubeus uncle: Fine older man, how about you?
Tom: How will I be? Don't you know how I am?
Your baby girl, Mona, is eating me and my brain, how I will be fine..?
Mona: Am I eating your brain?
(We all turned around for Mona's sudden voice, and there come Mona and Anna, and both of them look happy and by looking at Mona's face, I feel relieved that nothing is serious about Anna.)
Rubeus uncle: I can understand his pain, dear, that's the reason I am listening to him...
Mona: what?
Pain?
(Mona immediately looked at Rubeus uncle with her pout face and she beat on Tom's head for his teasing towards her. We all laughed at each other, and we spend some more time. After a few seconds of our funny talk, Tom came to the point with Rubeus uncle and asking him about the last night event.)
Tom: So, uncle, tell me about last night's event, do you suspect anyone?

(We all remain silent to listen to Rubeus uncle answer.)
Rubeus uncle: If I really suspect anyone, the moment I got conscious, I will let you know about it.
Tom: That's true, uncle, but I want to know any suspicious thing you observe in the party, or anything weird.
Rubeus uncle: At the party, I only looked at Mark and Anna's celebrations, so I didn't notice anything, Tom.
Tom: Think about it, uncle; even a single clue will help us to sort out the case.
(Rubeus uncle, think for a few seconds and strike his head as no.)
Mark: Uncle, please tell me what happened to you before you came to me to apologize...
Rubeus uncle: I am speaking to Joseph about our businesses; while I am talking to him, I feel some dizziness...
Mark: Are you drinking anything by that time?
Rubeus uncle: Yes, I am drinking the wine; I thought, I feel dizziness just because I am having the wine. But when I am speaking to him with my dizziness, I noticed you and came to you to apologize, and when I am talking to you, I tried to stay conscious, and I remember until the moment you hugged me, that's it...
Tom: Who offered you the wine glass, uncle?
Rubeus uncle: no one offered me particularly, I take the wineglass from the serving plate.
Mark: Do you remember who served the drink to you?
(Rubeus uncle thought for a few seconds and looked at me.)
Rubeus uncle: Its Nanny...!!!
What?
Nanny?
(We all spell out at a time in shock and we all looked at each other and didn't understand what's going on...
Shall we suspect Nanny because she served the drinks?
Or shall we suspect Joseph uncle because he is with my uncle when he is having drink.)
Tom: uncle, do you suspect either Nanny or Joseph for the attack?

I Was Reincarnated as Someone's Mana??
My name is Magnus Karlsson, and by a series of rather unfortunate events that I had absolutely no say in, I was killed and reincarnated. In this story, you will follow Magnus as he tries his very best to survive in a world that's been thrown into chaos, together with the man whose mana he is, Allan Woodsworth. Well, not a man per se, more of a little boy who has no idea what the fuck is going on, but, you know... I'm sure it'll be fine. Nothing bad will happen to the pair. Nope. No abandoned kids here. Anyhow. The world that Magnus has been thrown into is one perversed by the will of a great mage who, three thousand years ago, decided that it would be a great idea to infuse all the people of the earth with so-called "orbs". These magical crystals allow their handler to control and generate mana, which they can then use to become mages. Most barely use them, since the mana cost of doing such a little thing as a fireball spell is absolutely ridiculous. Said mage, Theodore Cromwell, Magnus used his resources to infuse not only humans with orbs, but animals as well, giving rise to what the mage community calls "horrid perversions of nature", but what the common folk calls "monsters". Orbs can be used for much, and it is through orbs that people keep track on their level of mana and such, and destroying the orb of a monster is A, the only way to kill it and B, a good way to absorb extra mana and raise ones level. It is such an orb that Magnus has been tranformed into. ------ To those that care, I'm very sorry about the title, it's just that, well, it's very good to be blunt about isekais like this since people such as myself search precisely for this, so having super-serious names like "The Magnus of the World of Orbs" would turn people wanting a simple and fun isekai off. I hope you give this story a fair chance! ------ Edit: IWRASM now has a deviantart page!!! https://www.deviantart.com/thefunartcorner

Soten (Book I in The Saga of Mira the Godless)
Anyone on the Isle will say Lady Mira caused the Twenty Years' War. While they're at it, they'll call her a witch, a whore, or a heathen, maybe all three in the same breath. Soten is Mira's version of the story. Captive in a Northern village, Mira expects brutality from the rough climate and harsh Northerners. Instead, she discovers a land where people speak their thoughts out loud, where women are free to be with any they desire, and those who divine messages from the gods are listened to, not burnt at the stake. Mira's idyllic new life is threatened when she hears of her brother's growing army to the south; she doesn't need rescuing; she's far too attached to the life she's building (and the lighthearted raider who is quickly becoming a central part of it). Then she meets Arik, the enigmatic Norsern king, a man who has drastic plans for next season's raids, plans that involve the sister of a great southern commander. To Mira, this is a story about love. To the rest of the world, it is a story about war. Book II: KAKEN coming soon!

Vigilantes Make Us Safe: Rebel Rebel
When the world was on the brink in the 1940s a group of men and women with uncommon ability pulled the world from the brink. They inspired generations to come and led to a golden age of vigilantes protecting the world. Times change. By the early 2000s almost nowhere was willing to tolerate unregulated men and women dispensing their own form of justice. The dawn of the internet made operating in the shadows virtually impossible. Everyone thought the days of vigilantes were done but presidential candidate Richard Hughes, riding a wave of populism, has promised to bring these men and women into the light and empower them to keep us all safe. The passing of the Vigilantes Making Us Safe Act changes everything. All teenagers feel like they don’t fit in at times. Ryaan Asfour knows the feeling well. As part of an immigrant family in a country turning against immigrants, there’s a lot of people who don’t think he belongs. The election of Richard Hughes and the passage of the Vigilantes Making Us Safe Act hasn’t helped matters. Suddenly anyone who wants to discriminate can just say they’re keeping people safe and do whatever they want. Sudden popularity at school after hitting a game winning shot makes it even more apparent how much he doesn’t fit in with the rest of his world. A clash with a pair of vigilantes on his way home from school puts things in perspective. What can Ryaan do to protect his family and his neighborhood? Vigilantes Making Us Safe will follow a variety of lead characters including Serenity, Toxic, Hitbox, the Rebel and more. I'll keep the cover image and title updated to reflect the current protagonist but I encourage you to check them all out.
