“Little Flame Belle!”
A path was cleared through the wall of skeletons. Mo Fan sprinted through the gap, which was soon filled by more skeletons with arms like bone swords. They completely sealed off the path.
Luckily, Mo Fan finally found little Flame Belle after making his way through the woods of skeletons. He was extremely shocked when he saw little Flame Belle surrounded by white bones.
Little Flame Belle had unleashed all her strength, and even more than that, the power was something she had never possessed before.
The spectacular Thousand Piercing Fire Feathers had eliminated hundreds of skeletons in the area. Their bones were burned down to tiny bits, like a layer of sawdust on the ground.
“Ying!~”
Regardless of how determined little Flame Belle was, she was completely worn out when she saw Mo Fan. She quickly flew to him, seeking some spiritual comfort.
However, when she was less than twenty meters away from Mo Fan, something covered in bone sabers suddenly jumped out from the piles of bones on the ground. Its spinning sabers sliced through little Flame Belle’s body!
Little Flame Belle had depleted her energy after executing the Thousand Piercing Flying Feathers. She never thought a Skeleton General would be hiding among the skeletons.
It was too late when Mo Fan saw the Skeleton General jumping out from the piles of bones. He watched little Flame Belle slamming into the ground less than twenty meters away after the bone sabers sliced through her. It looked like her tiny body almost burst open from the impact!
Mo Fan’s eyes became bloodshot after witnessing the scene. Anger erupted in his chest like a volcano, turning into the enraged roar of a beast after reaching his throat!

“Die!”
Mo Fan leapt into the air. His fist erupted into vigorous flames as it scorched through the air, like a tiny meteorite flying right above the ground!
The fist landed accurately on the Skeleton General. The flames bursting out from the fist were exactly the same as the ones that burst out from a volcano. Its wild momentum alone knocked the Skeleton General flying a hundred meters away!
The flames covered the entire Skeleton General. Its head exploded into pieces and landed in pieces in front of Mo Fan. The disparate parts of its body fell to the ground in many places. If the flames were able to burn the Skeleton General’s undead crystal to ash, Mo Fan’s explosive fist would have killed the Skeleton General almost instantly!
Mo Fan did not care if the Skeleton General was still alive. He lifted little Flame Belle from the ground.
Little Flame Belle’s back had a long cut. She was almost sliced in half. Mo Fan’s chest pulsated heavily when he saw the severely injured little Flame Belle; it was about to explode at any second!
The undead did not have any hint of mercy. No matter how much Mo Fan cared about little Flame Belle, they still came endlessly. The Thousand Piercing Fiery Feathers had annihilated quite a large number of the skeletons, yet it was still an insignificant number compared to the whole army of skeletons!
The sound produced from the skeletons’ moving joints was rather noisy. Mo Fan knew there were at least a hundred of them within fifty meters from his position without raising his head. The skeletons could instantly chop him into minced meat!
“Die, all of you!” roared Mo Fan.
Purple-black lightning burst out from his body and danced wildly in the area.
Mo Fan did not move from his position. Three astonishing lightning bolts came down consecutively. One of them landed right on the head of a skeleton in its Advancing Period and instantly disintegrated it into white dust!

More lightning danced in the air and descended in forks, leaving the silhouettes of dragons in the air as they continued to bring destruction down upon the place!
The burning smell lingered in the air as white ash of bones drifted to the wind.
The place was covered in continuous lightning strikes, covering the field in electricity. Mo Fan stood right in the middle of the display. The wild lightning shone on his pale face, yet his grim black pupils did not show any hint or thought of giving up!
Like machines, more undead appeared before the ash had completely dissipated. It felt like a tide was coming to devour the place. No matter how hard you tried to kick the tide away, it would still return at a higher level.
“Twenty-nine!” Mo Fan took a deep breath and uttered the strange number!
The skeletons were swarming toward Mo Fan from the front, the back, the sides and the air.. .the skeletons on the ground mostly consisted of four circles, but more skeletons were leaping into the air, falling onto him like a white net!
“Groundbreak!”
Mo Fan slammed his fist onto the ground right beside his feet, inserting Rose Flame into the ground.
The surface could no longer withhold the rumbling energy underneath it, and a gorgeous Groundbreak in the shape of a flower blossomed under Mo Fan’s feet!
The fiery flower burst out from the ground, knocking the skeletons that were trying to kill him away helplessly. Some were knocked back, some were tossed into the air, some were knocked flying. Most of them were set on fire…
“Thirty!”
Mo Fan uttered another number, it felt like he was keeping count.
A piercing screech came from not far away. Mo Fan followed the screech and saw the Skeleton General whose head was blasted open by him standing there. He had no idea how the creature was making the sound, but it was still commanding its subordinates to attack him.
It was obvious that the Skeleton General was greatly humiliated by its defeat. It immediately summoned all its reliable comrades to challenge Mo Fan!
“Take a rest, don’t force yourself,” Mo Fan softly patted little Flame Belle’s back and said gently.
“Ying~” Little Flame Belle hugged Mo Fan’s arm tightly and rested her head on Mo Fan’s back in a peaceful manner. She was no longer afraid, regardless of the number of skeletons surrounding them!
Mo Fan fixed his gaze on the Skeleton General that was waving its arms around!
“Fleeing Shadow: Shuttle!”
Mo Fan stepped forward. His figure suddenly turned blurry and vanished among the shadows of the white skeletons…
A shadow swept past like a black raven. The clumsy skeletons were somehow aware that Mo Fan was hiding in the lump of shadow. They immediately slashed at the shadow with their arms.
The bone sabers left marks on the ground, but they failed to land on the raven’s shadow that Mo Fan had turned into.
Mo Fan silently wove through hundreds of skeletons and appeared right in front of the Skeleton General that had lost its brain.
Mo Fan would never forgive anything that dared to harm his little Flame Belle!

Goblin Artist
Cover Art by the talented SocS (https://www.royalroad.com/profile/84137) Even if I grow in strength and somehow avoid dying during a hunt or some moronic tribal war, how long can I really expect to live?

In his previous life he was a successful artist, but now he faces a strange new world reduced to the most pitiful of dungeon dwelling monsters and with no survival skills to aid him.

He will push through the boundaries of his species to evolve further. The path ahead is long and arduous. Especially for a young goblin trapped in a small dungeon of a dying town. In order to succeed, he will have to forge bonds with those around him and rise to the challenges waiting for him.

Yin-Yang
Mages in North America seem to have it all – typically from well-off families, and able to manipulate their environment in ways most of the world would never believe. They don’t even have to bother with the mundane details of life like housework, thanks to their sensitives, who also make a useful source for extra magical energy. After all, sensitives have no use for it themselves, and if mages weren’t meant to make use of it, then the sensitives would obviously have some way to prevent that. That a mage can transform a sensitive physically, with no restrictions beyond overall mass and basic biological viability, whereas magic tends not to work directly on any other living thing, is only further proof. And look at the way they live on their own, barely a step above animals. It’s better for them to belong to a mage. Sensitives in North America live on the edge of society and survival – typically so paranoid they avoid hospitals and anything else that could lead to being tracked, many of them with little or no education and no legal identity or existence. Mages exist, and mages want sensitives for some reason, but no one ever comes back to explain what that reason is. Waiting every day for the hunters to notice them doesn’t lead to much motivation or hope for the future. And once they’re captured, they’re the property of someone with a terrifying amount of power over them. Anything is better than capture. Mages are born to be the masters, and sensitives are born victims. Or are they? Jax’s life is turned upside-down when he’s caught by the hunters and sold to a mage. Andreas is still mourning for his previous sensitive, though, unconsciously creating a difficult standard for Jax to live up to, all the more so while still struggling to come to terms with this new reality as Andreas’ sensitive. A runaway sensitive isn’t what Van expects at the mental health centre. Is this a hunter trap, set for him and the rest of the Donovan family by the hunters? The hunters would, after all, love to see them cross the line openly and finally do something they can be charged with. Either way, Miranda’s genuinely in trouble, and he can’t just abandon her to it. Snatching a sensitive out from under the hunters and hiding her is odd behaviour for a mage – but then, Catherine is an odd mage, living in disgrace in the old servants’ quarters of her grandmother’s house, responsible for cooking and housework. Lila owes Catherine her freedom; is there a way to help Catherine achieve her own, and at what price? Tension is building between traditionally-minded mages and those advocating change, and something has to break. *** Yin-Yang includes a small amount of profanity and no graphic sex or on-screen physical violence. However, sex and gender roles and relationships within the mage/sensitive subculture are non-traditional in mainstream North American terms. The key criterion in a primary relationship is not relative sex or gender, but the pairing of mage and sensitive; given the transformation of sensitives by their mages, physical sex is non-absolute for a sensitive, and gender identity can vary as in anyone else. *** *** The way mages treat sensitives is extremely varied and, in some cases is outright abusive. The struggle against that is pretty much the point of the book. It is NOT grimdark or misery-porn! However, if you will be triggered by this, please, don't read Yin-Yang! *** Complete stand-alone novel, 153K words! Also available on Scribble Hub and as a free ebook.

Gods of Arkanoth
The hunter has been betrayed, left alone in the streets of a lugubrious district. Only one goal appears in his eyes: to avenge himself. In his quest to avenge himself, he'll encounter an enigmatic scientist who seems to hide his true nature, a savior pretending to be a God, and the terrible truth of those words, bringing him against something he'd never thought he'd have to affront. This is the odyssey of the hunter, in a quest to put a long overdue end to a war between two worlds. // What to expect:The beginning will surely be intriguing, most of what's happeing won't be directly explained, although there will be some hints about their true roles, but do not worry about some subjects never leaving that misty fog that is unanswered questions! The novel is divided in two parts, the first focusing on uncovering the well-hidden secrets the city of Arkanoth hides, be it concerning its making or its inhabitants. As for the second part, it will be an expedition into the unknown, we could, in a way, say the true start of the journey our three heroes will undertake! I won't say anything more about the second part or else I might tell you an important detail without realizing... As for magic, because yes, there is magic! Although you might not see the shadow of a spell in the first chapters, it will appear in later chapters and will be one of the main subjects of volume 2. There are three heroes, yes, but they will not appear directly. While the first two protagonists appear in quite the beginning, the third will take his time, taking some stroll in the Districts of Arkanoth while we focus on the story of the hunter. But that does not lessen his importance in the story a bit, trust me. What about these three heroes, you say? Well, they all have their own issues, from their character to their torments, and as the story progresses they will have to come clean with their past (character development is to be expected) and will find their reason for fighting, braving all odds. I draw my inspiration from mythology, more precisely Aztec mythology. I want to stay true to a certain extent about it and all the relations between the gods and their role, however I will still change some things to my liking, so do not expect for all of the mythology to be respected to the letter. Finally! I have to say English is a foreign langage for me, so I might not choose the best words or straight-up miswrite something, if it bothers your experience, just tell me in the comments and I'll look into it! It is also my first time writing a book, so some parts might seem sloppy, but I hope I will be able to improve throughout this journey so as to give the most enjoyable reading experience to you. // Who might enjoy this story: Firstly, if you like deep lore and stories in which past plays a big role, you will like how everything unravels to show the hidden truths of the world. However if you do not appreciate not instantly understanding what's happening or who - or even what - this person might be, then you might not appreciate the story. There will be disturbing and gore descriptions, so if you're sensitive, don't like reading about someone being beheaded and such, you should probably pass this one. There is strong langage, although I won't abuse it, I won't be lying saying no insults will appear. Finally, the heroes will not always win, they will sometime lose battles, be it important ones or unimportant, and they will, most of the time, not come out unscathed from those. // Time Schedule : once every two sundays at 7:pm Ps : feel free to tell me if something is bad, or feel wrong with the book, it really helps me. I've written till' chapter 4 (in my mother tongue, so I'll still have to translate), however I'll make some minor and major changes, thus it will take some time to post them. Schedule will probably not change after releasing chapter 4, so don't worry, it won't take even longer to post a chapter than it already is. Enjoy the ride :)
