Chapter 61: Chapter 61 The Strange Scarecrow Doll
Emil put down the scarecrow doll and began to work for the day.
She was indeed a famous painter in school.
Just because of a strange scarecrow doll, she had a lot of inspiration.
The first work was painted with the scarecrow doll as the theme.
In a place where Emil could not see, the little scarecrow slowly turned its head.
The little scarecrow’s gaze touched Emil, then passed through her and landed on the scroll in front of Emil.
When Flanders saw the drawing board in front of Emil, he could not help but smile in satisfaction.
Not bad. He found such an amazing artist for the first time.
It was a good start.
Flanders was more confident in his next plan.

But before that, he had to be prepared.
He opened the system interface and flipped to the skills tab.
Flanders purposefully opened Fear.
As his level increased, Fear’s effect became stronger.
At level 7, the entire skill had changed greatly.
For example, Flanders had no idea about the illusion created by Fear.
He had no idea what kind of terrifying scene the person who was inflicted with Fear was facing.
This was resolved when Fear reached level 5.
At level 7, Flanders was not only able to pry into other people’s illusions, but he was also able to interfere.

This was also why Warfarin had only died once after being inflicted with Fear so many times.
This was because Flanders had intentionally controlled it to reduce the terror of the illusion.
However, even so, it was still a mistake in his operation. If he was not careful, Warfarin could have died instantly.
If it were not for Five Bone Abundance, which could extract vitality, Flanders would have almost lost this interesting and memorable collection of Warfarin.

Flanders paid attention to Emil for a while and then withdrew his gaze. He needed more creators like Emil.
To increase his success rate, in the early stages, he would find some people with a darker style, or even those who were fans of terror, to be his pawns.
Without Flanders’ attention, the little scarecrow seemed to have lost its luster and became an ordinary little doll again.
Emil did not know all of this. She was currently immersed in her own creation and learning.
Perhaps the little scarecrow was strange enough to leave a deep impression on the first Emil she saw.

This made the process of Emil’s first painting today exceptionally smooth.
It was as if it was a stroke of genius. Whether it was composition or coloring, there was not a trace of stagnation in the middle.
This extraordinarily perfect state made Emil a little obsessed.
When work was completed, Emil looked a little intoxicated.
What was going on? Why was he in such a good state today?
Emil looked at her work in disbelief.
She stood up and walked back, admiring the painting from a distance.
The content of the painting was straightforward. A scarecrow was standing on a wheat field at dusk.
The surrounding background painted the beauty of dusk perfectly. It was very artistic.

And none of this was to set off the main character of the painting, the scarecrow.
Normally, this should be a very artistic and beautiful painting.
But the situation was the opposite — the more stylish the background, the stronger the sense of horror and strangeness of the whole painting.
This was because the scarecrow’s form and appearance were all made, according to Flanders himself.
This was also the reason why Emil had just obtained this little scarecrow doll.
Its seemingly ordinary body had a subtle distortion. This distortion caused the originally normal smile on its face to appear.

No matter how one looked at it, this seemingly ordinary scarecrow looked very strange.
Combined with the entire scene, it was as if the sun had set and night had fallen. The scarecrow that was originally guarding the wheat fields had also come to life.
Yes, it had come to life.

In Emil’s painting, the scarecrow seemed to have turned from a dead object into a living thing. It gave people a feeling that it was about to wake up and begin to move.

Emil’s painting looked sparse and ordinary at first glance. There was nothing special about it. However, it was not an exaggeration to say that it was ordinary.
However, the more one looked at it carefully. The more one would feel that something was wrong.
When one was not paying attention, one would feel a creepy feeling in their heart.
The scarecrow in the painting would gradually come to life in one’s eyes. If one looked at it for a long time, one would even feel that the scarecrow was looking at one and smiling at one.
Even those with strong associative abilities would be able to see the scarecrow flying out of the painting and pouncing on you.
When you came back to your senses, you would be surprised to find that your back would feel cold, your body would be covered in a cold sweat, and the clothes on your back would be soaked in the sweat.
Perfect. It was obviously just casual work, but it surpassed all of her previous works.
After appreciating it, Emil became more and more satisfied with the newly completed painting in front of her…
Updated from lightnovelpub[.]com
That was it for today.
Emil felt the fatigue in her body. She did not continue to draw another one.
She could not draw another one.
Emil thought so, so she obeyed her body and lay on the bed before midnight.
This work made her very satisfied and gave her a great sense of achievement.
With this satisfaction, she looked at the hero of all this, the scarecrow doll that suddenly appeared in her bedroom.
!!
Just by looking at it, the sleepiness in Emil’s mind instantly disappeared.
How was this possible?
Updated from lightnovelpub[.]com
Her eyes widened, and her expression was a little frightened.
It turned out that after Flanders left, he did not control the scarecrow to return to its original appearance.
At this moment, the scarecrow was maintaining the posture of turning its head.
When Emil looked over, she happened to meet the scarecrow’s eyes.
Feeling frightened, Emil subconsciously hid under the blanket.
She hid under the blanket and secretly lifted a corner. Then, she looked at the little scarecrow through the gap.
Time passed little by little. Under Emil’s gaze, the scarecrow did not make any movements.
After a long time, there was still no movement. It was as if the little scarecrow was really just a scarecrow.
Could it be my misconception that this scarecrow was acting like this?
Updated from lightnovelpub[.]com
After repeatedly confirming that the scarecrow really did not move, Emil could not help but suspect that she had misremembered.
It was late at night. Emil, who was lying in bed, could not suppress the sleepiness in her body.
Gradually, her upper eyelids began to look for her lower eyelids for a date.
The image of the scarecrow in her field of vision became more and more blurred and finally turned into darkness.
Before she went to bed, Emil vaguely saw that the scarecrow seemed to have become much larger.

Cheep!?
Charles Monroe survived the disappearance of his parents, did his best to hold things together for himself and his sister. He survived when she, too, vanished, leaving behind nothing but a cryptic note. He was devastated, but he kept moving forward as best he could. Cancer didn’t put him down, and after suffering through several rounds of chemotherapy, Charles Monroe thought that things might finally be looking up. That is, until a virulent strain of ebola swept through the city. With his immune system strained as it is, the odds don’t look good for Charles. Now, on the bridge between life and death, he hears a voice claiming to know where his family went. It claims that it needs his help and that it can give him a second life, one far away from all the pain he’s ever known. So, Charles answers as any reasonable person would. He says no. Charles isn't ready or willing to die yet. But, as with everything else to this point, even his choice to keep fighting is taken from him all too soon. With no other option but the dark oblivion of death, Charles chooses to make a deal with the spirit of a distant world that's seeking a wild card in its battle against the gods, monsters, and mortals that threaten its existence. Someday, he’ll find where his family went. Someday, he’ll uphold his end of the bargain and hunt beings powerful beyond anything he’s ever known. Someday, he might even – hatch? “CHEEP!?” Things to Know: -Cheep!? Will release on a minimum weekly schedule. -After a backlog of chapters, posting will slow, but in the interim you can expect a chapter a day up until roughly 25 chapters. -This story at times will potentially carry some heavy moments, but the tone is intended to be lighter overall. -There are invisible game-like elements in this story, but nothing so concrete as a dedicated gamelit novel. -I personally have some issues with anxiety, so I may or may not interact with the community a lot. I'll try if anyone has questions, but I can't guarantee that it'll be consistent. -MC is a non-human lead, and will never actually become human. Romance will potentially happen between side-characters, but not with the MC. -MC IS NOT THE ONLY VIEW POINT. I have to put that out there because people sometimes hate alternate PoV's in a story. None of them will be filler, and they'll be there only to give a little bit more nuance and meaning to the world that the MC has stepped in, or is about to be imminently important. I'll try to keep them down, but this also helps to prevent me from burning out getting trapped in one view. -Most of all, I hope that this story is enjoyable to you, and that you have a great time reading it! -Written by Michael Adams, Cowritten/Edited by Summer Kent
8 521No Strings Attached [Rewritten]
Warning Just so you know, you better be paying attention to the chapter title or else it's going to be like travelling across multiverses. Explanation Due to a single comment made by a wonderful person, or some douchebag in real life, I have decided to create two seperate stories. A rewritten version, and the original version. The rewritten version will somewhat follow the original storyline of the original version, but will have extra content, extra side stories of course rewritten personalities. The original one will be like a rough draft of where I want the story to go. Like for instance, the original story is like the first Link from 'Legend of Zelda', choppy but fun to read. The rewritten story is the Link from any game during and after Windwaker, smooth and somewhat follows the main premise. Overall both are going to be probably terribly done but hey, I'm creating a furture and past story so what should you expect. - Styx Whatever just put up the revised description. - Ariel Edited Summary Jay W. Blu, a dashing and charming rich boy who's been spoiled his whole life. He is very cocky, has a case of egomania and isn't exactly what you call a 'Relatable Main character', unless you somehow fit one of these descriptions and then relate all you want. He had everything you would probably want if you weren't pessimistic, realistic, or chronically depressed. But as most reincarnation/summoning stories go, he get's himself killed at whatever age he was and is sent to another world. Normally, he would be summoned as something you would call a hero, but since that's to cliche by my standards he is something else. Instead of being the hero of the people that he was told about by a friend, he instead summoned as the anti-hero aka, 'The Hero of Demons'. Now he must traverse the lands slaying opposing heroes as he tries to keep his mind straight, although it's to late. There will be weird people along the journey like a fangirling war general, a hive mind and a manly magical girl? Oh well, Jay is too pure to see love anyways.
