《A Wizard’s Secret》A Wizard's Secret
Advertisement
In the Castellan's mansion, Castellan Augustin, Baron Vingult, and the white-robed Wizard Jason were in a discussion.
"Wizard Jason, six aristocratic families in Blackwater City except for Wilson have arrived. Do we start now?" Augustin asked calmly.
Wizard Jason glanced at Augustin and Vingult without emotion. He said as he waved his hands, "What's the rush? I don't mind telling you now. The robbers who kept disturbing peace in Blackwater City are all from the church. With their attack, the knights of these nobles have gone out of the city to provide protection. Who else do they have in Blackwater City?"
"So, we should give them one more chance. If they're willing to return to God's embrace, then they're still the believers of God of Light! Master Castellan, it's time for you to appear."
Augustin's expression changed. Even if he had guessed that the robbers outside of Blackwater City were odd, they were truly people sent from the church, now that it was confirmed by Jason.
The church had prepared all of this!
"Wizard Jason, please rest assured. I'll talk to them clearly out there, but Wilson…"
Speaking of Wilson, Wizard Jason raised his head to look at Vingult. A cold smile formed on his lips as he said lightly, "Baron Vingult, I know of your contradiction with Wilson. Now, I'm giving you an opportunity to take revenge! Wilson should be dead by now. His territory will be destroyed as well. So, Wilson Castle should no longer exist. I'll leave this matter to you and will send two more Guardian Swordsmen to you. You should get your man to eliminate everyone in Wilson family!"
Elation bloomed in Vingult's heart. His expression turned ferocious as he said in a low pitch, "Wizard Jason, be at rest. Not a person of the Wilson family will exist in Blackwater City from now on!"
Then, Vingult walked out immediately. His heart was filled with elation. Fighting for so many years with Old Wilson, he had resented Wilson to his bone. Now he had the opportunity, why would he let it pass?

"Tirath, bring Vingult knights and the two Guardian Swordsmen Wizard Jason gave you and destroy Wilson Castle. I don't want to see anyone from Wilson family in Blackwater City in the future."
"Hehe, Father, please be at rest. Not a person in Wilson Castle can run away from this! However, such a shame this Merlin bastard has gone to Wilson's territory. Otherwise, I'll kill him myself!" Tirath was full of resent toward Merlin.
"Merlin can't survive going to Wilson's territory. He can only die with Wilson. Alright, go quickly. Until the matter is settled, the Vingult family will definitely welcome our most brilliant times!"
Then, Tirath brought two hundred knights and left the castellan's mansion.
Outside of Wilson Castle, two guards seemed listless. Both leaned against the door and exchanged words with one another, feeling bored.
Suddenly, an extremely luxurious-looking carriage came dashing forward from afar. Its speed was fast and the master of the carriage seemed flustered.
The guards immediately stood alert. They both knew the carriage. That was the carriage of Young Master Gutt who always stayed together with Young Master Merlin.
Soon, the luxurious carriage stopped in front of the castle. A fatty jumped off from the carriage and the guards quickly welcomed him. They said respectfully, "Young Master Gutt, if you're looking for Young Master Merlin, unfortunately, he has left Blackwater City two days ago. He went to Sir Baron's territory."
"To the territory?" Fatty Gutt frowned and seemed extremely anxious. He said in a low voice, "Quick, bring me to Young Lady Macy."
The guards knew Gutt was good friends with Merlin, so they did not stop him and brought him into the castle.
Macy was having breakfast when she heard footsteps. She raised her head to see Gutt and furrowed her eyebrows. She did not have a good impression of Gutt and Anson and had always thought they were bad influences on Merlin.

However, Gutt did not care about Macy's attitude. Instead, he approached Macy quickly and said in a rush, "Macy, leave Wilson Castle quickly. It's best if you can get out of the city. Go to Baron Wilson's territory and meet with Merlin."
"What's wrong? Gutt, what happened?" Macy put down the spoon and looked at Gutt.
The fatty saw Macy's unwillingness to leave and knew he could not convince her to leave immediately unless he explained the matter clearly. So, he could only cut the story short and said, "Trouble. The Church of Light has suddenly launched an attack. They've taken most of the cities in the Kingdom of Light like Grand City, Rute City and others under control. They are planning to overturn the Royal Family!"
"The Dougland family has business all over the Kingdom of Light, so our news came earlier than others. Blackwater City should be one of the church's aim, so even the city gate is closed this morning."
"You and the Wilson family are in most danger. Baron Wilson comes from the army and he swore loyalty to the Royal Family. The church will not let him go easily. Moreover, I heard that Castellan Augustin of Blackwater City and the Vingult family have sought refuge with the church. Seeing their issue with the Wilson family, they won't let Wilson Castle off."
Gutt told her every news he had received without thinking. He spoke too fast that he could not catch his breath. His face was red and he seemed exhausted.
Macy's face turned pale instantaneously. She took a step forward quickly. Shaking, she asked softly, "Gutt, then what about Father and Merlin? Are they in danger?"
Gutt caught his breath and shook his head. "No news has come to me about Baron Wilson and Merlin yet. The gate is closed now. No one is allowed to enter or exit. I also came to notify you hurriedly right after I received the news. The most important thing is your safety now. Even you can't go out of the city, you must not stay in Wilson Castle."
Gutt paused and bit his lips. His expressions kept changing as if he was making some decisions in his head.
After a long pause, he raised his head and said as he bit his lips, "No matter what, you can't stay in Wilson Castle any longer. Macy, five is the maximum. Five of you must leave Wilson Castle immediately in my carriage. I'll send you to a safe place. When the situation in Blackwater City becomes calmer, I'll think of a way to send you out of the city."
It could be seen that Gutt's move was extremely risky. Without caution, he would be involved in this matter as well.
Macy took a glance at the butler. At this time, she still needed the butler's decision.
The butler looked at red-faced Gutt and bowed deeply to him. "Thank you, Young Master Gutt. You're willing to take such a big risk to save us. Wilson family will forever remember your deed. Young Lady Macy, Young Master Gutt is right. We must leave the castle as soon as possible now."
Gutt nodded. "Alright. Get ready. I'll be waiting for you in the carriage."
The fatty turned around. When he was about to return to his carriage, a bunch of ferocious knights came directly toward Wilson Castle.
"It's not good. Tirath has brought his men here… It's finished. Even I can't get away with it now!" In an instant, Gutt's expression turned ashen and his eyes filled with terror.

The Five Series - redemption
Book 1 - Redemption Three generations have passed since the last near-apocalyptic war. Civilization is beginning to thrive again at an ever increasing pace. The burden of society has been once again placed on the back of a massive robotic workforce, creating a huge divide between industrial glory, and those forced to live in its shadow. Many have stubbornly held onto the old ways of self-governance from back when the government fell, but with its return, life in Welan City is changing. Aaron, a middle-aged man, who is stuck in the rut of daily life, witnesses a murder and finds himself in trouble, love, and the middle of a highly secretive robotics project. Aaron stakes his life on helping a prototype survive, and pays for it dearly. Passionate hate, love, and indifference send life in Welan City spiraling out of control, leaving no one innocent in the end. The Five Series is, well, a series. I've completed 3 of the books so far and will finish with a fourth, maybe fifth book. Book 1 is heavy on the character development side while the following will be much more decision and consequence oriented. This story reaches into the soul of a person and the universe we live in. Some people deserve a second chance, and some do not. With that im mind, no one really ever gets what they deserve though, do they? Always tell the people you care about that you love them as often as you can, they could be gone tomorrow. Would that change if you could always bring them back? I hope you enjoy reading this as much as I did writing it. Cody

Divine Mortality
Divine Mortality is about the experiences of Players stepping into a new massively online world. A video game which was crafted with near-future technical advances, a game that provides seamless virtual reality headset and control support, a game which was hidden until it's surprise hit release shocking the world of boring and mundane MMORPGs played today, and a game that has been described as a miracle creation. Something which is difficult to create in Today's REAL WORLD, yet, it's not impossible with the right conditions and intentions. I try to implement concepts of my dream MMORPG which I believe will work and fulfill a Player's fun, immersion, creativity, and social world. The story in season 1 follows the first person perspective of an enthusiast of the game, Amulet Pond. Season 2 follows a new individual called Sayooshi, written in a more third person perspective (attempted light novel). (Recommended!) Season 1 covers the rough chapters 1-52, Season 2 (chapters 53+) should be better in quality. You can start reading from 53.
