《Psycho X Psychic》Chapter 32 - Casual Encounter
Advertisement
Seeing Clade's death in the future, Hanon gritted his teeth and immediately took his phone out of his pocket.
'I have to tell Clade.'
But before he was about to type, the future vision disappeared back to darkness.
'Huh...? Why did it disappear again? Maybe it's wrong?'
Hanon put down his phone. At the same time, he saw the future again - the one that Clade was beaten, or worst, dead.
'This action of mine determines the future? But what does darkness mean? This is the first time I-'
Hanon's train of thoughts stopped upon realization. From feet to his head, he felt cold.
'My death...'
He looked at Teren who was patiently staring at him.
'Wait, if I warn Clade now. That guy will certainly come here to complain. Then he will meet Teren? What about me? Will I die because I warned Clade? Does that mean... I'm at his mercy?'
His pupils and legs tremble.
'This kid... he's waiting for my choice. He doesn't know it yet but once I pick my choice, he will decide.'
After a few minutes, Hanon's breathing got ragged and he began to perspire. At that moment, he finally decided. He placed down his phone and sat down.
Seeing this, Teren nodded.
"See you tomorrow, Sir Hanon."
"..." Hanon was left in the faculty with his hands covering his darkened face. He seemed void of energy.
Once Teren got out of the faculty, Lina shouted.
"Finally!"
Meanwhile, Iesa saw Teren's lifeless eyes.
'I wonder what happened.'
That was when he heard Hanon's thoughts.
'I have to report to the boss- he will die tonight.'
Iesa's eyes widened.
On the other hand, seeing iesa immediately placed a smile on Teren's face.
"You guys didn't have to wait for that long."

"Oh my god, I was about to run out of patience..." Lina further complained. Any more waiting and she would've said what she was really thinking.
'How dare the doggy made his owner wait this long!?'
Iesa ignored these thoughts and said to Teren.
"Can we... come home together?"
Upon receiving this question, Teren was blown away by the sheer cuteness Iesa shown.
"I... I... o-okay."
Teren found that he could not say no to her.
'What?!' Lina heard this and butted in, "Then since I waited, can I come too."
Although Lina was cute, Teren firmly believes that Iesa is on another level. He didn't even feel any impact from Lina.
"Isn't your home the other way, prez?" Iesa said.
"Ah..." Lina, for a second, forgot about that.
Meanwhile, Nick who experienced a whole day of anxiety was finally ready to talk to his almost-killer or soon-to-be.
The four went out. The guard asked them why it took them so long and Teren just told the truth about how Hanon talked to him.
Lina was the only one talkative in the four, asking Teren what their teacher talked about.
Teren just said the truth and the questions by Hanon except at the last part. That's where things got straighten.
But it didn't take that long since it was Lina who was the first who was separated from them.
At that moment, a car began following them. In a silent street, the car was very obvious.
'What's with that car?' Nick thought.
Meanwhile, Iesa was sweating. That was when Teren stopped under a streetlight and said to Nick.
"Now that the prez is gone, say what you want."
While ignoring the car that parked behind them, Nick answered directly.
"C-can you please help the Handwing Gang against the Spectra Gang?"

But before Teren could answer, a voice came out as the door of the car behind them opened.
"Handwing Gang? I thought that gang was utterly destroyed by the same person you are talking to right now?"
Iesa looked at the tall man that had sunglasses. Without stopping, the man went behind Teren and looked down.
"Ah..." Iesa trembled.
"If that's your request, Nick. But I hope you will not antagonize me from now on."
"Who..." Nick muttered as he looked at the smiling handsome man.
"Now that you have my answer. You can go now. And also..." Teren then looked at Iesa, "Sorry, but let's come home together for another time."
Clade placed his hands onto Teren's shoulders as he laughed.
"Are you sure there's for another time?"
Iesa then remembered what she heard one last time from Hanon,
[I have to report to the boss- he will die tonight.]
"T-teren... escape. You will die!"
Teren frowned, 'Does she know something?'
If a stranger saw this, Clade seemed like Teren's friend or uncle at best. The only out-of-place here are the fearful faces of Nick and Iesa.
'Why would she say that I will die?'
"Nick, can you please bring Iesa out of here?" Teren asked.
"I-iesa, let's get out of here." Nick pulled Iesa by her arm.
"No! I...!" she wanted to say something but knew that she couldn't do anything.
"Nick," Teren's voice got colder, "Gently..."
"Ah..."
Iesa couldn't feel it but out of fear and pressure, Nick's grip on Iesa's forearm was tight.
"S-sorry... Iesa, Teren can handle him."
"Handle me?" Clade laughed loudly again with a big mouth. His grip got tighter as he put pressure down.
However, Teren was unflinching.
"Iesa," he frowned, "Please... I'll just message you after this."
Seeing Teren's serious face, Iesa pulled her hand out of Nick's "gentle" grip and nodded.
"You better be."
She then walked away with her face glaring at Clade. Nick followed.
"Those were your last words to your cute girlfriend?" Clade asked as his grip trembled from the pressure he was exerting.
"Two wrong and one right. I wish but she's not my girlfriend, those were not my last words, and finally, you're right, she's cute."
Teren replied.
"Hm... as expected of the famed Devil Himself. You're still not falling from the pressure I'm exerting." Clade was about to frown and give his full strength down when Teren suddenly stepped forward and the center of balance shifted, lowering the pressure.
At the same time, he turned to make Clade remove his hands.
"Let's take this somewhere. Don't want a dead body on the public road, right?"
Clade's shocked face turned into a smile, "That's right."
Meanwhile, he thought, 'Where's Hanon? I hope he follows us.'

A Demon's Tail
He was born in a dark place, in a world where souls were traded like coins and a person's life wouldn't amount to much. A world where a single misspoken promise could rip you to shreds. On top of everything, his only soul was acting up and mocking him! It couldn't get much worse in his opinion... ——————————————————————————————— Reading Order of the Multiverse-Books ——————————————————————————————— Author's Comment: I was asked about reading my work on other sites. The answer is simple: Currently, I am not active in any other networks than royalroadl.com. Only here, I correct mistakes and errors. If you read it anywhere else and have to pay for it or have to deal with an annoying amount of advertisement, You Are Being Betrayed. You would do good if you make other people in that network aware of it. This is a free project of mine for the purpose of having fun. And if people try to make money with it you shouldn't bother visiting their website. The only one whom I actually allowed to have my work on his website is Armaell who invested the time to compile them into pdf. (http://armaell-library.net/author/andur)

Joie de Vivre
A modern man chased immortality and found it. In a mixture of good and bad luck, he was re-born as part of the Uzumaki clan from the Naruto-verse, some few years before their scheduled destruction. But if Daichi were the sort to allow a little thing like fate to get in his way, he'd never have survived in the first place. Dedicated, intelligent, chock full of ideas from a technologically advanced society, and perfectly willing to scorch the earth, he sets out to avert history. Can he avert canon, save the Uzumaki, and forge his people into a mighty nation? Or will he fail, dooming his clan to extinction? At the end of the day, all he wants is a good life. And considering even Death itself didn't stop him, he pities whoever gets in his way. ================== Tags: Naruto, Reincarnation, OC, eventual multi-cross. ================== Author's (Brief) Note: Back by popular demand. This was my first significant fanfic (and fic in general). I wasn't happy with the writing as time went on, and took it down, but years later am still getting requests to put it back up so I guess some people liked it. Newly re-released as I finish some minor editing, there are about 100,000 words (~360 RRL pages) already written, so releases should be fast until I catch up with the backlog. That said, it may languish in hiatus at that point if the interest isn't high enough to merit continuing, so if you're the type to only read finished stories (or ones where the author promises to do so), I am very specifically not promising that. On the other hand, if enough people read, like, review, comment, rate, etc. then it will get added to my writing schedule. Generally, the character is based on a “how badass could someone who hasn't done ridiculously crazy shit be? Or, how does someone with the potential, in another setting, with a lot of luck, to be a badass act and develop as a modern, productive member of society? And then how would they deal with the Naruto-verse?” Please, please do not judge my writing by this. Unless you really like it, in which case fine, do, but recognize my other writing is likely better (unless it’s that one MTG/ASoIaF/SW fic I did over on SB as a speed-writing experiment, which is also pretty terrible).

Mary Susan Oceanrunner and the Brutus Saint's Academy
Join Mary Susan Oceanrunner on her quest to do... erm... something really important for the world... probably... Ahem. Long gone are the days when every hero could do whatever they wanted - now, we are civilised. We have government. Law. And proper forms. Lots of proper forms. (Final episode 25/07/2022. Also - beta readers far into the book rate the 'gore' degree as below 2/10, so the warning is a bit much) Mary Susan Oceanrunner is a poor girl from the orphanage, who like many others before, has to fulfil her destiny. The prophecy had been told, and she is the only one who can make things right. Erm... probably. Anyway, she can't just go and kill monsters like in the middle ages. First, she must apply for the appropriate permissions, fill the forms, learn about the proper loot taxations... Hey, no one said adventuring would be easy, right? Disclaimers: No claim made by any character by the book should be treated as the author's or anyone else's opinion on any subject. Most likely, it was just the funniest thing the Author could think of at the time of writing. This book contains many references to other works. It will probably be best enjoyed by individuals familiar with at least some of the following: 1) Computer games2) Fantasy in general3) Science fiction4) Tabletop RPGs5) Conspiracy theories6) Corporation work life7) Long forgotten prophecies uttered millennia ago in almost as forgotten languages under a starless night three dusks before the great convergence8) Filling any government-mandated form9) School10) EnglishMy ultimate goal is to make as many people experience something akin to joy while reading (think ~a bit louder exhale through the nose). It doesn't mean every scene will be funny or joyful because that's not how this stuff works. I can neither confirm nor deny having any other hidden agenda outside of that.
