Chapter 154: The Hale Family’s Killer
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Connor’s pupils constricted. But before he could react, he was kicked away by Lucas’s long and menacing leg!
“Aaahhhh!” With a lasting shriek, Connor was instantly kicked far away. He smashed into several tables in a row, shattering the dishes on the table into pieces, and landed right onto the greasy soup and broken porcelain pieces. He couldn’t get up for a long time and looked extremely distressed!
Everyone inhaled sharply as they looked at the scene in front of them in disbelief!
Lucas actually had the guts to kick Connor right in front of the patriarch of the Hale family. He was simply out of his mind!
“This punk must be tired of living. He’s out of his mind!”
“But how on earth did he just hit Mr. Hale? There were clearly five bodyguards shielding Mr. Hale. How did that punk pass them?”
The crowd broke into discussion while staring in disbelief at Connor, who had been kicked around eight meters away.
If not for the fact that Connor had indeed collapsed onto the ground and was lying in a disheveled manner, they wouldn’t have believed their eyes.
At this moment, the bodyguards reacted and turned to face Lucas.
Although the bodyguards didn’t know how exactly he had broken through them just now, Connor had indeed been kicked and sent flying away. This was an indisputable fact that proved their negligence and incompetence as bodyguards!
The bodyguards looked at each other. Then they roared, charged toward Lucas, and punched at him hard.
With their dignity and livelihoods at stake, they had to defeat him as soon as possible!
However, the bodyguards’ actions were naturally slow and incompetent in Lucas’s eyes.
Lucas gently turned to the side to dodge the punches. Then he grabbed the arms of two bodyguards and flung them out of the hall by more than ten meters!

Immediately afterward, he grabbed the remaining three bodyguards with one hand and flung them out like they were fish in a bucket!
The five bodyguards were stacked one on top of the other like giant fish, blocking half the entrance of the luxurious and grand banquet hall.
The people in the hall watched everything happening in front of them in utter astonishment!
To be able to effortlessly throw muscular men who were 1.9 meters tall and weighed nearly 100 kilograms each and cause them to land more than ten meters away was definitely not something that an ordinary person could do!
Who exactly is this person?
Lucas ignored the people looking at him in horror and simply glanced at Seth, who was standing alone in front of Bruce and still keeping his arms open in a protective stance. With a faint smile, he said, “You just said that if I wanted to go over, I’d have to kill you first, right?”
The smile on Lucas’s face looked devilish to Seth. He was so frightened that he shuddered and froze on the spot. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva and spluttered, “You… don’t you dare get up to any nonsense! If you really kill me, you’ll be breaking the law!”
Lucas sneered. “Oh, you sounded so righteous just now that I thought you were really fearless!” Then he stepped forward.
“Ah! Don’t you come over!” Before Lucas did anything, Seth suddenly screamed. His legs went limp, and he sat down on the ground while shivering incessantly, no longer as domineering as he pretended to be just now.
Daniel hurriedly stepped forward and glowered at Lucas. “What are you doing?!”
Lucas smiled coldly and said to Seth, “You were rude to me at the entrance, but I spared you and told you to go home and bring your father because I wanted your father to discipline you and teach you how to behave. I didn’t ask you to find a backer and continue trying to throw your weight around in front of me!”

After saying this, Lucas jumped and kicked Seth without mercy.
Seth felt a strong force coming from his back that caused him to fly forward and roll several meters on the ground. He stopped rolling only after he hit a wall near him. His head slammed against the wall, and he passed out.
Daniel was enraged when he saw his son fainting after being kicked, and he felt a strong urge to rush forward and fight Lucas!
But the moves that Lucas showed just now were clearly not something that ordinary people could handle, so Daniel dared not move at all. He could only roar furiously and glare at him resentfully.
Lucas glanced at Daniel and said indifferently, “Bear this in mind. If you still can’t take your son in hand, I’ll do it for you. However, I can’t guarantee if your son will be alive by then.”
The blatant threat immediately made Daniel’s face redden, but he could only grit his teeth and didn’t dare to say a word.
The other people in the hall had their jaws drop when they saw the scene before them, feeling as if they were dreaming.
Lucas actually had the guts to hit someone and issue threats in the banquet hall of the Hales, completely disregarding the Hales’ presence!
At this moment, Bruce’s face was extremely gloomy and shaking. He was clearly suppressing his anger.
It had been a long time since someone dared to insult the pride of the Hales!
Suddenly, a phantom-like and thin figure appeared beside Bruce.
The figure seemed to be about 1.4 to 1.5 meters tall and was all huddled up like a monkey. He was clad in a full-black attire and was wearing a black mask with only his eyes revealed.
However, from the wrinkles around his eyes, it was obvious that he was old.
Among the guests, there were some people who had seen that old man in black before. Some couldn’t help but exclaim, “Mr. Hans! It’s actually Mr. Hans!”
“Wow, Mr. Hans is here too. It seems Lucas Gray won’t live to see tomorrow!”
“Hahahaha, that’s right. He didn’t even think about how prestigious the Hale family is. How dare he, a nobody, create such a stir here? I reckon he’ll face a terrifying death soon!”
Those who knew who Hans was began to look at Lucas gloatingly after Hans appeared.
“Mr. Hans? Who’s that?” There were some who didn’t know who he was and asked the people around them.
“You haven’t even heard of Mr. Hans? Oh, you’re too young. You probably don’t know that Mr. Hans is the most menacing killer of the Hale family!”

Mistwalker Xyn and the Cult of Eldritch Evil
[Participant in the 2020 Royal Road Writathon Challenge] Having just graduated to adulthood, Xyn is salty about how his lackluster Awakening has resulted in his current derided status within his clan and tribe, particularly when compared to the successes of his litter-siblings. The revelation of the truth about his heritage sets in motion events leading to him traveling to human lands on a secret mission for his tribe. Cringeworthy moments and awkwardness will ensue as young Xyn (an anthropomorphic tiger-kin), raised in the sheltered life of a martial artist, navigates human society with a trusty sidekick or two picked up along the way and might just save his corner of the world while he's at it. Gore will be minimally present as needed to tell a fantasy martial arts tale. There won't be any sexual content, but mild/vague suggestive themes may occur occasionally due to the nature of Xyn's mission and his insecurities. Story should be teen appropriate.

Elder's Game
In a world set upon by an ancient threat, a new cycle of civilisation competes for power and resources. Amidst the games and politicking of Elder beings, the masses are unknowingly ensnared in plots and schemes that were centuries in the making. At the heart of the world’s workings lies the Tyreal Valley—a land that promises to fulfil the desires of those who seek it. As a haven for the truly strong, the path to this promise is paved more often than not in warfare and blood. To two young stragglers fighting for more than just their own fates, it is left as their only answer. But maybe that’s just what their enemies want. Magic system vaguely similar to GameLit ones (no system nor interface to help), with certain elements that are a bit more analogue. Politics, war, looming apocalypse, a tiny dash of kingdom building, and a minor bit of crafting. There is a bit of a progression element as well as both environmental and cultural exploration. The story follows two youths more directly influenced by aforementioned Elder beings than most. Neither lead cares for politics but certain situations force them into participating, forcing them to make decisions that shape their morality. Initially, the focus is on the male lead as he comes of age in an environment with little scope to change his future, only to be thrust into new circumstances that permanently kill some of his hopes. 3k words every chapter
