My Space-Time System Chapter 135

[If he had accepted the offer, I would have thought he wasn't human.] The system chuckled when it saw Blake's reaction.
…
Knock! Knock! Knock!
"Uhhh… Who will be knocking by this time of the night?" Blake cursed as he opened his eyes, but instead of finding a dark environment, rays of sunlight made their way into his eyeballs.
"What time is it?" Blake was shocked, he was afraid that he had slept for days and the reason was that he hadn't eaten!
[Seriously?... First, It's been a while since they have been knocking, so I think you should answer…] The system reminded him of the person at the door.
"For a moment I thought something had happened to you, we were just about to call the attention of management..." Brian said with a worried expression when Blake finally opened the door.
"If something is to kill me that will hunger." Blake held his tummy as it loudly protested for food.
"We came to call you because we were about to get something to eat..." Castiel said.
"That's great, let's get going… What's wrong?" Blake stopped in his track when he saw them giving him a weird look.
"Aren't going freshen up?" Brian asked with a raised brow.
"Do I really need to?" Blake asked with a dejected look on his face, but when he saw their brows going higher, he made a U-turn and hit the shower.
'How long have I been out?' Blake asked as they went to the cafeteria for dinner, breakfast, and lunch.
[You've been sleeping for close to 18hrs now and if they hadn't knocked you would have gone past a day.] The system answered.
Among the three, Blake had been the most active and had taken most of the damage. Castiel had also been suppressed because he was also in the fire pathway, but Blake had received more than double the suppression and was also struck by a thunderbolt.

Castiel and Brian had planned on calling management because they had thought Blake had sustained serious internal injuries but surprisingly, he was only hungry.
"So, what are you planning on having?" Castiel asked as he skimmed through the menu.
"Everything…" They would have laughed at the joke, but when they saw that Blake wasn't smiling, they were shocked.
'Black hole!' That was the only word that came to their heads.
Unknown to them, Blake had sustained internal injuries and the reason he was awake was because of the space elements passive, and just like everything, nothing works for free.
A chronomancers passive returned the user's body to its peak condition, but this requires both time and nutrients from the user, and with the number of injuries he had sustained the system wasn't shocked by his words.
After waiting close to 20 extra minutes for Blake to finish his meal, the trio went to meet Susan who directed them to Langford for the violation fees.
"Good day gentlemen, we have important information for you 3. So, if you are ready let's head to a private area." The chief appraiser said.
"Please lead the way." The trio were brought into a briefing room and after they had all taken their seats, Langford began speaking.
"On behalf of the adventurer's association, I will like to apologize for the incident that occurred yesterday.
The hirer had given wrong details about the difficulty level of the mission and for that, the association had sanctioned with a steep violation fee and had also banned Mr. Taliesin and those related to him from placing any commission for an entire year.
"The violation fees are dependent on the level of the offense. In this case, the hirer involved an E rank party in the matter of demigods, but since the members of the Order of chaos didn't sustain serious injuries the offender was only charged 60k aside from the agreed commission." Langford was forced to pause when the trio gasped in shock.

'Holy shit! Did I hear that right or are my ears failing me?!' Blake wasn't even aware that his mouth was wide open.
[Even for a noble that should sting. I am impressed by the association's care for its adventurers…] The system said.
Returning back to their senses, they gestured for Langford to continue the report.
"The agreed price for a D rank mission was 6k gold coins, but the hirer was dishonest and went ahead in involving an E rank party in a B grade mission, meaning Order of chaos adventurer party will be paid according to the rank of the mission and that equates to 30k gold coins." The trio were about to gasp again but a glare from Langford made them calm down.
"For the points allocation, Order of chaos adventurer party has been awarded 50k points for their ethics and conduct even in a situation leagues above their level, therefore upgrading the parties rank from an E rank party to a D rank party."
(AN: Not sure if I gave the ranking for adventurer parties, but here they are;
E rank: 0 -25k
D rank: 25k -100k
C rank: 100K -500k
B rank: 500k -5.5mil
A rank: 5.5 mil
S rank: 20 mil)
'The violation fees are definitely worth it!' A brimming smile was on Blake's face as he couldn't believe what he was hearing.
"And lastly, To properly apologize, the association will compensate the Order of chaos adventurer party by giving each member 20 elite rank beast cores..." Langford said while putting down the papers marking the end of her report.
[Aren't you one lucky bastard! Not only were you instantly promoted to the next rank as a solo adventurer but even your party was instantly promoted.] The system was fascinated by Blake's level of luck.
'It's funny how a few hours ago I considered this one of the worst things to happen to me, but who would have thought we will get so many rewards!'
Knock! Knock!
"Come in."
When the permission was given, their favorite blonde receptionist walked into the room.
"Sir Langford, a representative of the Winchester family wants to award a commission to the Order of chaos adventurer party..." Susan reported.

Sweet Minds
"No one can see it, some can feel it, and only the few can use it. We belong to the few." Marith Merryfield felt anything but merry that morning. She found herself waiting for a delayed train on a deserted platform, in the freezing cold of the Dutch autumn. Just when the strangeness is making her consider turning around and going back home an empty train rolls into the station. For reasons unclear to this day she decides to get onboard. An unlikely, and quite impossible, train accident is about to hurtle her into a world she had always suspected existed. It was a dark and absurd place she had rejected and suppressed when she was young. Now she would need that dormant part of herself to survive. After a brief hospitalization she must choose between two continents and finds herself reluctantly boarding a plane to Oregon to be reunited with her shadows. She returns to the town she grew up in, which is where her father still lives and her childhood memories linger. By the end of the week the mysterious train accident turns out to be the least of her problems. Her life was never supposed to become this serious this fast. Through an improbable and unfortunate series of events she is soon introduced to a motley crew of characters that appear to be carrying the same struggles through life. They possess a familiar sense of inadequacy and insecurity. Marith realizes that for the first time in her life she has found herself a tribe, or, as they prefer to call it, a Chain. She is introduced to a world of Prophets, Runners and Mages led by an Oracle and a Watchmaker. Over the course of several weeks Marith learns that, together with her Chain, she is expected to save this fabric of reality, by fighting a mysterious and immortal creature and his aggressive pet. In order to have a chance at overcoming this force of nature she has to revisit the darkest and most desolate corners of her mind. ***** The total word count of the first 12 chapters amounts to about 85.000 words. The total word count of the first 30 chapters will amount to about 225.000 words. My chapters range, roughly, from 5.000 to 10.000 words. I post with irregular intervals, on random days and at different times. I hope you will enjoy the story! English is not my first language and I am very much open to constructive criticism. Disclaimer: I regularly use impressionistic or abstract language on purpuse, when I think it might benefit the story.
