The Ancients World Chapter 265

{I want to let everyone know that I have a p-a-t-r-e-o-n with two new exclusive stories on it. One is The Aeternus Universe, and the other is a new story with a basketball system. I hope you guys will give it a chance. The link is https://www.p-a-t-r-e-o-n.com/easyread. Remove the dashes. Webnovel censors the word.}
{I get to see my mom today, and the hospital is saying she's doing much better. I'm so excited. I want to thank all the fans that have prayed and/or kept her in their thoughts. I really appreciate it. She has a long road of healing, but she's done it before. Thanks again!}
I watch Sally kill the last brother, taking her time as she does it. Just as she did all the rest of the brothers, Hailey couldn't handle the brutality, but she still gave it her best shot. Sally causes the man as much pain as possible before ending his life. As she kills him, I get a notification from the system. I'll open it in a minute. I walk up to Sally, and I place my hand on her back, letting her know I'm still here. "I did it... I fucking did it!!!" She releases joy and happiness. I thought she'd have a harder time coming to terms with the brutality she's capable of.
That isn't the case, though. She's cheering and celebrating that she's the one that killed them and did it the way she did. She leaps into my arms and hugs me as tightly as she can. I gently hug her back, and I can hear her sniffles now. It's time to let the tears fall, and I expected this too. She's done it. She's gotten revenge on the family that took everything from her. She buries her face in my neck as I lift her off the ground. Her tears making my neck wet. "You did do it. I'm proud of you, Sally." Her sobs get a little harder as I say that.
I let her down, and she dries her tears away, and her smile shines through. She looks kind of psychopathic with all the blood, but that'll wash out. It's nice that it's not me who is covered in blood this time around. Hailey walks back into the room now that she doesn't hear the screams of the men anymore. "I take it everything is done?" Sally looks at Hailey and nods her head. Hailey walks up to Sally and wraps her in a hug too. "I'll let Jasmine know that she has you to thank." Sally hugs her back, and I'm glad I get to witness this moment.

As the two of them talk and catch up, it's time that I check the notifications I got from the system. I know that they're for the quest of Sally's revenge, and it is a legendary quest. Not one of true legendary status though, there is a difference. It's hard to see sometimes. A quest can have a legendary difficulty, but that doesn't mean it's actually of legendary status. Legacy quests and higher are unique and one of a kind. Once completed, the whole world will be notified, and special rewards will be given. I open the notification.

[Note: The great difficulty of this quest is the goals that Sally has set in revenge. If they weren't so great, then the difficulty wouldn't be so high.]
I notice I have a new quest, and I decide to open it.
[Revenge Against the Eleven Kingdom]
[Description: Now that Sally's Revenge against the James family has been completed, the hardest quest regarding Sally's past is about taking Revenge against The Elven Kingdom.]

[Note: This quest is directly tied to Sally's Past and meets the same condition of being at the legendary in difficulty.]
This quest is sure to update again once we get the information from Kelly. Despite the fact she's a James, I'm willing to be she's going to be different than the rest. I would've killed her before, but I can see now that would've been a mistake. I'm glad that I left the decision up to Sally. She let her live and be of use to us, and now it's turned out great. I have gained three new levels too. I open my player interface to see the new level and stat values. I'm still getting used to seeing the very high health and mana, but I'm glad I have it.

Level 193 now, and I'm probably the highest level among the players. Sally and Hailey stop talking, and they turn towards me. "Looks like we have many things to do still, Sally." She nods her head, knowing that we have other quests to complete. I look at Hailey, unsure if she's staying with us or heading back to Jasmine. "Are you going to be coming with us, Hailey? I know you want to give Jasmine the good news, but we probably won't bump into each other like this again." Hailey looks down in slight sadness.
I should've figured she needs to tell Jasmine that she completed the quest. She lifts her head, but before she can speak, I get an idea. "Why don't you come with Sally and me to figure out our next targets? Once you are done with Jasmine, you can meet up with us at one of the target locations." Hailey thinks about it for a second but quickly nods her head. This way, once she's done with Jasmine, she'll know where she can find us. We'll have a list of targets. She'll have to meet with us at one ahead of time before we get there.
We leave the room since it's beginning to stink from all the bodies letting their piss and shit out. We walk down the hall, and before continuing the conversation, we see Kelly round the corner up ahead. She looks nervous but also happy. We walk up to her, and she is slightly rigid. "The information you see is buried in my grandfather's grave. He died in battle, and an empty coffin was buried. My father used his father's empty coffin to store all his most valuable information. The family graveyard is at the old estate." I nod my head, and we start to make our way towards the exit.
Kelly looks as if she's surprised that we're just letting her go. She held up her end, and we'll do the same. There is no reason to continue talking to her. This is going to be the last time we meet. "Kelly." Sally stops as she says the girl's name. "If I find out you haven't made the changes you said you are going to make. I'll come back and kill you too." Kelly slowly nods her head in understanding, and we leave the mansion. We stop at the front gate by the bodies of the guards. It's late morning now, and we have the entire day to find the grave holding the information we need.

Dear Spellbook (Link to rewrite in blurb)
A rewrite of this story has been posted here: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/49881/dear-spellbook-a-fantasy-time-loop-rewrite Live. Study. Repeat. Tal is a sorcerer in a world where they are killed on sight, traveling with a man charged with carrying out the task. Every night Tal must pretend to study his spellbook to maintain his disguise as a Wizard’s Apprentice. If his disguise slips and his charade is uncovered, it will be his death. Seeking answers to mysteries that arose after his parent’s murder, Tal must accept any allies, no matter the risks, to uncover his family’s secret. But when he wakes up one morning to find himself trapped repeating the same day, he has to overcome his challenges all on his own. This story is an adaptation of a D&D campaign I ran but never was able to complete. I tried to capture the feel of a table-top RPG session —tropes and humor— without relying on the mechanics. This is not a litRPG or gamelit story and no D&D mechanics or system appear in the game. It follows one member of an adventuring party as he deals with the problems with that arise from being an adventurer. Namely, getting roped into adventures. The story has a time loop element, but will eventually move past that. This story explores the magic systems, the history, and the lore of the world through the lens of Tal's entries in his Spellbook and interludes from other written works in the world. New entries on Mondays Credit to JackOfHearts for the cover.

Forgive me, I didn't mean to take that!
Murong Yingyue is the heiress to a famous cultivator clan. Except that’s she’s really not, and just a stand-in for the real heiress, who had been sickly since she was born. And she’s not really even herself. A transmigrator from Earth had transmigrated into the body of a female demoness, inheriting her memories. The transmigrator had then later died, transmigrating into her infant body! Ah, Why is it so convoluted? She grew up with those memories, and when she was finally sufficiently strong enough to travel the world safely, she eagerly embraced a leisurely life. When I was a demoness, I didn't know how to live without constantly being on guard and having to calculate every move I make. When I was on Earth, I didn't know a life without romantic drama and jealous women! I'll enjoy these two things you have missed, then! I'll do whatever I want and avoid troublesome people. So... How the f*ck did I get into this stupid cliche storyline? And as the main character, too? I don't want to be the main character! They attract so many senseless cannon fodders and powerful enemies, and furthermore, don't they attract romantic interests like it's no one's business? Someone help me! This will read better if you are familiar with wuxia novels. Discontinued. Apologies to all who liked the story. I feel that my writing style has changed since I last wrote for this story, so I tried to get myself to rewrite the story but I couldn't find any motivation to do so. I also lost the outline I had for this story and don't really remember what direction it was going in, so I want to leave the story as is. Thank you to the people who read and favorited this.
