Monster Paradise Chapter 333
After putting away the Molten Dragon’s carcass, Lin Huang recalled Charcoal and the Sanguine Skeleton Spirit into their card forms. He used Life Crystals to activate his dimensional relic after making sure that he did not leave anything behind. He did not even draw the reward cards and left before his Life Power could recover. Because the appearance of dragonkin just now would attract many powerful monsters, it would be dangerous if he stayed even for a second more.
The blue dimensional relic disappeared as he walked into it. Lin Huang did not go to Yi Yeyu and Li Lang. Instead, he went to the area where Tyrant was in the midst of its unsealing. Seeing the blue dimensional relic, Kylie took out her spear and was ready to fight. As soon as she saw that it was Lin Huang, she put away her weapon.
“I’m sorry. Due to some reason, I needed to change the color of the dimensional relic,” Lin Huang explained when he saw Kylie’s reaction.
After keeping the dimensional relic, Lin Huang then took out a Life Power Refill Card to refill the Life Power that he had lost. Within seconds, his five empty Life Wheels were completely filled. He was relieved as he felt energized again. Looking at the blood stains on his clothes, Lin Huang said to Kylie, “Could you please look away? I’m going to take a shower.”
Kylie heard what he said and turned around to look at him intentionally, not bothering to look away.
“Never mind then, you can look if you want to. I’m a man anyway, so there’s nothing to lose.” Lin Huang then took off his clothes.
As he stripped down to his underwear, he felt shy as Kylie was still watching him intently. He did not want to take off his underwear. He then took out a large tub and filled it halfway with cold water. He then leaped into the tub with his underwear. It was a pleasure to shower with cold water under such scorching weather. Of course, he did not do that for enjoyment, but more to get rid of the smell and the blood stains on him. There was a strange fragrance from the black dragon’s blood. It smelled like musk. He was worried that the fragrance might attract trouble.

After six tubs of water and using different brands of shower gel six times, there was still a light musk fragrance on his body, Lin Huang decided to give up.
“It seems like I can’t get rid of the fragrance. I shan’t waste water like this or else, I won’t have any water to drink for a few days…”
He then got out of the bathtub and changed into a new pair of underwear while hiding behind the tub. He changed into new clothes and shoes as well. He then tossed his clothes into the lava and cleaned the tub before putting it into his storage space. He noticed that Kylie had been watching him.
“Haven’t you seen a man taking a shower before?” Lin Huang teased.
“A man who showers six times a day? No,” a lady’s voice said.
“Who’s that?”
Lin Huang was shocked when he heard that voice and he looked around but did not see anything. He calmed himself down as he did not see Kylie taking out her weapon to defend them.
“Was it you who spoke just now?”
Kylie remained silent but Lin Huang knew the answer.
“It’s not that I want to shower six times a day but I’ve got the black dragon’s fragrance on me…” Lin Huang knew that Kylie misunderstood, so he explained immediately. “Oh yeah, why didn’t you speak before this since you can talk?”
“Because there’s nothing to talk about.” Kylie was cold towards him.
“Alright then…” Lin Huang accepted her response reluctantly as it was not bad that Kylie was able to express that.
“Is there anything else that you would like to say to me? If not, I shall leave now. I’ll come back to you guys a few days later after Tyrant is done with its unsealing,” Lin Huang informed.

“I have a question,” Kylie spoke again after keeping quiet for a while.
“What’s that?” Lin Huang raised his eyebrow.
“Why do you wear clothes when you shower?”
“Erm…” Lin Huang wanted to blame it on her as she had been watching him but he thought about it and gave another answer, “I usually won’t wear anything but it’s different when there’s a lady around. It’s rude to be naked in front of the opposite sex.”
Lin Huang wanted to say “excluding special people” but he refrained from doing so as Kylie might ask him what that meant. He was a simple man who did not like to explain a lot. He thought it was unnecessary for Kylie to know about all that.
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll make a move,” Lin Huang said and summoned his dimensional relic.
Seeing Kylie shake her head, he then stepped into the dimensional relic. As the blue dimensional relic disappeared, Kylie mumbled to herself, “Is it rude?”
This time, Lin Huang went back to Yi Yeyu and Li Lang who were hunting down the Smoldervenom Toad. Li Lang was recovering his Life Power with snacks that looked like spicy strips. The poker-faced staff saw Lin Huang walk out of the dimensional relic but did not say a thing.
“Finally, you’re back. It’s been more than an hour. What monster were you after?” Yi Yeyu asked curiously.
“Nothing much, it was just a double mutated monster that took some time.” It had only taken Lin Huang less than ten minutes to kill the Molten Dragon but he had spent most of his time showering.
“What’re you eating?”
“Spicy bacon strips. It’s a snack that’s made of marinated pork with a special spicy sauce. It’s good! It’s very popular on the Heart Network. Do you want to try some?” Yi Yeyu took out a packet.
“I’ll try one strip instead of an entire packet. I might have to throw it away if I don’t like it.” Lin Huang walked towards her.
“Alright, then.” Yi Yeyu offered a packet that was opened to him.
Lin Huang took a strip from the packet, then passed it back to her.
“Why do you smell so good?” As Lin Huang walked towards her, Yi Yeyu sniffed the fragrance on his body.
“I had blood stains on my clothes, so I took a shower. I think it’s the fragrance of the shower gel,” Lin Huang came up with an excuse.
“This shower gel smells good,” Yi Yeyu commented without thinking too much about it.
Lin Huang was relieved as Yi Yeyu did not ask further. He put the spicy bacon strip into his mouth. A spicy and savory taste filled his mouth. After some chewing, he savored the fragrance of the bacon. Just like what Yi Yeyu said, it was delicious but it was a little heavy on the palate. As they chatted, Li Lang paused his Life Power recovery and opened his eyes.
“Help me hunt down a Life Fire monster.”
Lin Huang was stunned when he heard what he said.
“Sure!” He nodded and agreed immediately.

Caged within the Ravencourt
A short and pain-filled life was all that Melissa was given, and it wasn't until falling asleep for the last time that she was finally given something more. Waking up in a healthy and young body, and faced with an unfamiliar culture and even more inexplicable sights, Melissa had to adapt to her life new as Kalie, the third Princess of the Shattered Isles of Cerith. It didn't take long for Kalie to realize that even though she finds herself in a strange world, she may just be one of the strangest parts of it. As Kalie comes to terms with her bizarre new life, she finds herself set in the sights of the powerful new king of a far off land. Eventually finding herself taken away to be Caged within the Ravencourt. This story is world spanning, and slow to start. It's my intention to build up towards the epic story I'm hoping to tell. Don’t expect over the top powers, just smart characters using magic interestingly. And, like my other stories, the focus is on the characters themselves, less so the world they’re in. Enjoy!

A Primeval Future
Follow the story of a modern caveman as he learns to survive, thrive, and shape his nascent civilization in a world yet untouched by man. Expect a focus on the nitty-gritty of primitive living, especially early on. I plan for this to eventually progressing to the settlement management and politics stage as people gravitate towards the one guy who looks like he knows what he's doing, but this will likely take some time. Despite the occasional system elements, skilling and levels will not be a part of this story. No shortcuts. There will be violence and there will be sexuality but there will be no sexual violence. I hate reading that crap and I hate writing it even more. This is my first serious foray into writing. I plan to put out at least 1 chapter a week, more when I can. Constructive criticism is very much welcomed as are ideas and suggestions! Cover image credit: "Mesolithic camp site" by Wessex Archaeology is licensed with CC BY-NC 2.0.

NEVER SPLIT THE PARTY: The Adventures of The Creeping Bam (BOOK ONE: The Job)
TAO is a broken world held together with nothing but magic and the will of the gods who protect it and its people. Then thousand years ago THE SUNDERING struck and Tao was almost torn apart by a terrible magical cataclysm which resulted in the planet almost being halted in its journey through the cosmos. It took all the power the gods of Tao could muster to restore its orbit and set it turning again, but in their efforts it was forever changed – its axis was drastically altered, and it now spins in such a way that one face of the world is forever turned from the sun it orbits, leaving half the planet in perpetual darkness. The various humanoid races that survived and now thrive within the habitable parts of THE DAY LANDS have come to live in perpetual fear of what lives beyond THE BORDERLANDS that separate them from whatever dwells within THE NIGHT LANDS, but for ten millennia it has kept its secrets. The land of RUNDAO languishes under the rule of their warlike Northern neighbours, the TEKTEHRAN EMPIRE, while a small, ragtag band of motley adventurers ply their mercenary trade fighting monsters and protecting the common man from the various dangers that haunt the night and prowl the hinterlands on the edges of civilization. THE CREEPING BAM have amassed a modest reputation in their years together, but they’re still just a small-time party of sellswords, thieves, outcasts and mages. They’re also exactly the kind of underdogs the people of Tao doesn’t yet realise are needed to save the world from the encroaching darkness they doesn’t even know is coming … This is a love letter and homage to the high-fantasy worlds of the tabletop RPGs like Dungeons & Dragons, Pathfinder and Warhammer and the sword & sorcery cinema and literature I fell in love with as a kid growing up in the 80s, from Robert E. Howard’s Conan the Barbarian (and the awesome Schwarzenegger movie, STILL my favourite fantasy film EVER), The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit and Ron Howard and George Lucas’ Willow, to the more grown-up and edgy worlds of grimdark masters George RR Martin and (my all-time favourite) Joe Abercrombie, as well as a BIG DOLLOP of Terry Pratchett’s immortal Discworld series. IMPORTANT: This story contains material which some readers may consider to be mature, such as battle violence, some strong language and occasional mild sexual scenes. If this is not your kind of thing, this story is not for you. I am also serializing this story on Tumblr, Wattpad, Quotev and Sweek.

I wasn't minding my own business really. Truth be told, I was just a child when I saw the show. But, further on I started to think back on the new world introduced in that Equestria Girls film. All was well in my life, new friends, new adventures... until my accident on our first group camping trip.Unfortunately, I awoke with amnesia, so I had no recollection of how I'd even survived the accident. I had no idea where I was either, as I was extremely disoriented when I eventually woke up. I didn't see my car anywhere, which scared me a bit. It wasn't until I noticed the sensation of where I am... to where I once was. I panicked harshly when the world looked different to what I thought I was used to. I found myself making friends with some local school girls. They felt familiar, just like the world, but I had no idea who they were. All I could do was trust them, thinking that I'm a part of this world now. But I get the sneaking suspicion that I'm not welcome here, or that I'm not supposed to have powers. Progress: Complete - 100%
