Konjiki no Moji Tsukai Chapter 11
Marione scowled at Ornoth, who had interjected, ready to kill him.
“To begin with, why is a ≪Taboo≫ like you here! You‘re just—”
“Shut up!”
“!?”
A sudden bellow. The atmosphere became stiff from Eveam‘s shouted words. She glared fiercely at Marione.
“Are you defying the Demon Lord‘s order?”
“Grr…. Hmpf!”
He left the room with a snort.
“Shouldn‘t you be stopping him, Your Highness?”
She showed a faint smile to Shublars‘ question.
“N- No… My conviction will not falter.”
Then Aquinas, silent until now, spoke.
“He has a short temper, but that‘s just his own way to worry about the future of the ‚Evila‘.”
Of course he meant Marione.
“I know.”
“His wife and child were killed by the ‘Gabranth’.”
Orneth quietly closed his eyes. Eveam clenched her fist frustrated by looking at him. She understood had Marione held an extraordinary grudge because of that incident. Still, she believed it to be wrong to dominate out of hatred.
“You are dismissed for today.”
Looking the complete opposite from before, she left the place spiritless and heartbroken together with Kiria. The others left one by one too, only leaving Aquinas and Ornoth behind.
“Don’t take it to heart. As I said just now, Marione just has a short temper.”
Ornoth inadvertently smiled on the sudden words from Aquinas.
“No, I’m more worried about Her Highness.”
“…?”
“What do you think about her ideals?”
“….I think it’s naive. Too naive.”
“…..”
“However,”
“Mh?”
“If a world without grief really exists, I would like to see it.”
“…Yeah.”
“But as long as we’re the only ones striving for it, it will be futile.”
“You’re right.”

“…Someone.”
“Mh?”
“If there was someone unbiased against races who could act as a mediator…”
“It’s not feasible for Her Highness?”
“It’s impossible for the princess… no, Her Highness on her own. Besides, she’s the representative of us ‘Evila’.”
“Right. We need someone that is neither affiliated with the ‘Humas’, ‘Gabranth’, ‘Pheom’ and ‘Evila’. He could act as a mediator.”
“Now that’s idealistic.”
“Still, you’ll continue to support Her Highness, right?”
“Yeah.”
“And I swore to support you back then.”
“……How duteous.”
Giving each other a faint smile, they stood up from their seats. Aquinas thought:
(A mediator… That’s really idealistic.)

8 2447Scorched - The Winter Winds (LitRPG)
Frank Ebner once wanted to save the world. Let the second one be better than the first. On Earth he was a student of... well it hardly matters anymore. It was dying, and he and the rest of his fellows and friends studying how to stave off the end graduated just in time to be told it was too late. That there was not enough time, funds, will, to stop it anymore. That the governments and the worthies of the world had moved from trying to stop it, to surviving the oncoming apocalypse, while blaming each other. That was a world Frank wanted nothing to do with. One riven by wars for places in the Archologies going up, and between them and the dying world they were leaving behind. So when a strange voice offered him a way out, to a world unmarred by the poison killing his? Frank took it. The voyage changed him, made him fit his new world, one of stats and magic. It came with perks, for in passing through their Heavens, they'd been exposed to Divinity, and taken some of the Celestial within them. Heroes now, but there are heroes, and there are Heroes. The nobility of the Empire care only for those who carry blessed bloodlines, and their time to adapt and train up for the new world is limited. Patrons are scarce among those like Frank, with only the base Hero perks, and magic studies expensive and lengthy. Often requiring heavy Oaths to gain the necessary aid to wield mana as a mage. Frank found another way. It nearly cost him his life. Now on the run and burned by the very magic he sought and craved, he is a pilgrim traveling to the The Eternal Tree, font of Perseverance. Frank hopes Ir-karlak will grant him some way to recover from the fires that scorched him. Without snuffing out the embers those fires lit within, for he has learned to harness them and he would not give up magic for the world. *** In the last 21 days, as I update this, I've managed about 18-19 updates. So Scorched should update most days, muse willing. She's fickle, sometimes. Not every day, but most. If there's an update for the day, it will be at 7PM, GMT+2. *[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Actually completed it. :) *

I warned you~ Read at your own risk of getting irritated over some details.Status: Starting Volume Two
8 201The tribal queen and the Medic
The duty of a medic is to help those in need, no matter who they are. So after a bloody battle between imperial forces and Native Amazonians, Jaison went back to the battlefield to search for survivors. It starts to rain and the exhausted young man takes shelter upon a hill and under a tree, that is when he meets a beautiful Amazonian whose warriors need help. Being a medic he decides to help, what could possibly go wrong. Bit slow on updating at the moment since I am rewriting some parts and making some new parts for the story. I am also now making a story called Amazonian and her captive which I want to be somewhat like this story, just high quality and with a better story. Coming soon: Updating and adding new chapters. I also have a blog spot where I only upload images based of the stories I write.
