《The Typhoon’s Wife》The Typhoon's Wife
Advertisement
Little Ru who had run up the stairs before his father could complete the sentence did not hear about the ring.Alicia was staring at the ring with mixed feelings..She appreciated the fact that it belonged to his mother and there were sentiments attached but she did not want to wear a ring that had been worn by....
Ryu,being observant as he was,interrupted her thoughts,"This ring had been worn by my mother and now by you.Ru's biological mother has never seen nor is she aware of the existence of this ring."
Alicia sighed in relief at this and admired her ring.She loved the simplicity of the design.Her previous engagement ring had been gaudy and ostentatious but this one was simply perfect.It was irony that a person with very little money had given her a ring with a diamond ,the size of an egg and a man with abundant wealth had given her something valuable to his heart..
She smiled prettily and said ,"Thank you.It is a beautiful ring and wearing it will make me feel as if I have their blessings as well."
Happy with her answer and reaction ,they continued eating in peaceful silence before Ru rushed back with the watch and dragon,he placed them in front of him as if afraid they might disappear..Seating himself,he turned to Alicia and said, "Mother,will you please feed me today?"
Such a simple request..how could Alicia refuse?She immediatelt started feeding him rice and dumplings from her bowl.The atmosphere felt content amd happy as if this family was now complete..Ru was also in baby heaven..His mother was feeding him his favorite food cooked by his father..and knowing his father he knew that the nexr course was going to be sweet rice cakes..

After the lunch was finished,Ryu took out 2 dessert plates and served a couple of rice cakes on it for the two people in his family who had a sweet tooth.Seeing the same lookbof anticipation on Alicia's face that was usually on Ru's his heart really wished that Ru was his and Alicia's son...
Alicia loved rice cakes and this one looked too tempting...Without caring about Ryu's observing eyes,she took a big bite of the rice cake and groaned in bliss..This man should have been a chef instead of the CEO.She was almost envious of him..Was there anything he couldn't do?Taking over a company and making it global at 18 yrs-piece of cake,single father to a 2 year old-bring it on,business ,cooking,kissing..his list of attributes was way too long...She quickly opened her mouth to take another bite and almost foodgasmed..it was soo good!!
Seeing the blissful look and closed in pleasure eyes,Ryu could not wait anymore.Picking up his present he walked behind her chair.He quickly collected her soft hair from her shoulders and tied it up in a knot...He was careful to caress the nape of her neck with his fingers..just to see her reaction and her inboluntary shiver made him smile..
His hot hands caressing her hair and neck made her open her eyes,"What are you doing?Why are you..." Suddenly she felt something cold touch her neck..she looked down to see a beautiful star shaped pendant around her neck..She was mesmirized..Two thin chains had been braided together to look like a stylish rope and hanging in between was a star shaped pink stone the size of a thumbnail and a few diamonds dangling underneath.The entire piece looked as if a shooting star had been caught by someone before it could disappear...As Alicia stared at the beauty now sitting around her neck..Ryu,bent down and after closing the clasp placed a soft kiss on the nape of her neck.That kiss jolted Alicia out of her stupor..she had been scorched by that kiss..It somehow felt evenmore intimate than any other kiss they had shared.However his next words were even more stupifying.He went to her and softly whispered,"Hope you like your engagement present.You,Al are our wishing star and those chains are me and Ru.Thank you, my star."

An Unwavering Craftsman
Given the hereditary nature of classes, everyone expects Damien—the child of two high-tiered adventurers—to be granted a high-tier combat class of his own. Expectations are betrayed, however, when Damien finds himself instead saddled with a crafting class of the lowest possible tier: [Neophyte Tailor]. Left practically crippled compared to those with better classes, Damien wants to avoid becoming a pawn in the machinations of the nobility, desiring only to grind his level in peace while wondering why the usual rules of inheritance were broken. Was it his desire to excel by his own effort, rather than an unearned blessing from a god? Did the Five take offence at his opinions on the unfairness of hereditary classes? Or maybe it was something to do with the alien voice that intruded on his ceremony? A voice that offers great power, and freedom from the tyranny of the Five, but that never names its price. This story is litRPG-lite. While the class someone possesses controls most of their lives, people don't get dinged at for every level they gain, nor can they see their status without undergoing a special ritual. The MC has no romantic interest. Crafting is merely a way to game the system, and doesn't feature heavily in the story, aside from a few descriptions on how they're carrying out the system abuse. There is, on one unfortunate occasion, maths. The pace is quick. This was a participant in the Spring 2022 writathon. (i.e. it was posted as-written at high speed. I may give it another editing pass in the future.)

Scenario 66
Silven isn’t too happy when he stops to consider his miraculous prison escape, a guiding voice on the air and the herd of terrifying black knights hunting him down and realises he may be important. Equally, he’s not going to be too happy when he learns he’s nothing more than a character in a video game in chapter 3.8. There’s just no pleasing some people. But by the time of this realisation, Silven is all-powerful and all-arrogant, with a couple of game-breaking businesses under his belt. And when he finally understands he has been meddling with the very fabric of his own reality, the damage may already have been done. This fiction contains: * Approx. 4,342,213 video game tropes, mechanics and cliches * Very light levelling and business development (but no tables. Other than the one on the cover). * A rather acquired taste in dry, sarcastic humour. * 0 dragons. Why no dragons, man? Chapters will be released EVERY DAY, in order to sufficiently punish you for all the bad things you've done in life.

Where can we found this crimson colored gem? 2094 ADWe the researchers at the Genesis Lab finally found our answer. The Philosopher's Stone is not a Gem or any other precious mineral.

Spring 2095 ADWE FINALLY DID IT!When we are deciphering some sort of ancient text related to the Mayans, we found out about where it was and how can we obtained it. The method that ancient people used seems to utilize human sacrifice as an offering to Gods. But hey, now we know that Gods exist, and more importantly Their whereabouts. If the ancient people used human sacrifice as the toll to open the portal. Then, we the modern people could simply use some sort of mini-sized black hole with specific coordinate to force this hidden life-form come to this world.

Summer 2095 ADEverything is progressing as we wanted.Every trivial thing on our side seems to be working in order.We can commence the operation 'Child's Play' early next year.-LB-
