《The Typhoon’s Wife》The Typhoon's Wife
Advertisement
A few hours later,the operation theater's doors opened and a team of doctors in green scrubs came out.The Head Surgeon came towards Ryu Long to let him know the patient's status.The doctor was a senior and not easily intimidated.He introduced himself and them moved on to the report,"Mr Long,your wife is currently in medically induced sleep.The wound on her shoulder was not very deep and only required a few stitches.It will heal in a couple of weeks.The damage to her calf though was severe.The knife was embedded very deep.We have stitched the wounds but the damage is great.She will need to be on bed rest for at least 3 months and then start by walking slowly and doing light exercises.Luckily the knife did not pierce the bone.There will be some scarring on the shoulder for which we have prescribed medicine but the scarring on her leg is going to be severe and will not go away without surgery which cannot be done before a year.She has lost a lot of blood so needed transfusion.Madam Long will feel dizzy and light headed for some time but otherwise she should be fine and be able to go home in a few days.If you need to know anything please do let us know.Madam Long will be shifted to the V.I.P Room very soon.You can go and see her there."
With a curt,"Thank You" to the doctor,Ryu turned and moved towards the V.I.P room on the top floor.The basic courtesy of thanking left the doctor very surprised.Most rich people tended to forget these basic manners but not Ryu Long.The doctor felt glad that he had taken the time to explain the injuries to this man.

Late at night in the Hospital Room:
A pale woman opened her eyes to a dimly lit room.She slowly blinked her eyes and looked around the room.The room was empty with no sounds coming from anywhere.She was about to close her eyes tiredly when a handsome but weary face suddenly entered her vision.Scared for a moment she stared at the face.Was he an angel?Was she dead?Was he the grim reaper?She was dying...She was certain she should have been in pain but she couldn't feel pain anywhere.Also wherever she was lying was very soft...it had to be some clouds...only after a few minutes did she realize that the angel was saying something.She made a concentrated effort to listen and realized he was asking if she wanted any water.She nodded her head slowly still staring at the angel.The angel soon brought a spoon close to her parched lips and gave her small sips of water.She was still staring at him with wide eyes.
Ryu was feeling a bit weird because of Alicia's unblinking stare.She was looking at him as if he was a stranger.He had been unable to sit throughout the day due to worry.He had just stepped out of the room to make a phone call when ha came back and saw her moving.Once she stopped drinking,he kept the glass and spoon aside and asked,"How are you feeling?Do you feel any pain?"
With the same glassy eyes,Alicia stared at him and asked,"Are you my angel?You are very handsome angel.But I hoped my angel looked like Jin...he is worldwide handsome"
Alicia saw that the more she spoke the more her angel was frowning.Maybe she had hurt his feelings.She immediately said,"Don't worry...you are very handsome too!!"

Ryu stared at the woman who was blabbering and wondered if she had hurt her head also and nobody realized.Or maybe she was shocked.He was about to call for a doctor when she suddenly held his wrist and asked, "Who are you,really?At least tell me your name.My name is Alicia.What is your name Angel Ryu?"
It took the confused Ryu that Alicia had called him by his name.He looked at her in shock to see her grinning from ear to ear.The girl was crazy!The first thing she does after being unconscious for so long was to prank him!
Glaring at her, he said "You just gave me a scare!I was about to call the doctor to see if you were suffering from some side effects!"
Smiling and not looking the least bit sorry she said,"But you looked so cute with that little frown on your face when you asked how I was feeling...so I thought to tease you...Sorry...Hubby...actually I am not feeling too good...I can't feel my leg...HUH!!!They did not chop off my leg right!??Help me up!!!please..please.."
This woman could jump topics faster than the blink of an eye!Exasperated and forgetting that he was angry he pushed back the struggling woman and said,"Lie back.Your leg is still attached to where it should be but you need to rest to help it recover...Now are you hungry?"
Vigorous nod of head and a loud rumble of the stomach were the answers he received.Smiling and giving her a natural kiss on the forehead,he moved back and said, "I am ordering some light soup for you.Rest until then."

Sword System Academia
2/17 NOTICE: I'm putting this on hiatus, possibly permanently. I didn't want to spam with an "update chapter", so hopefully here and in the story blurb will get enough eyeballs. There are a couple reasons for ending SSA for now. 1) I wrote the next chapter but wasn't happy with it. I've been less and less satisfied with SSA's quality the more I thought about it. Part of the reason is... 2) I am seriously thinking about trying to publish some novels to help pay the bills, since I don't have my other source of income anymore. I have never asked for anything from SSA readers, no money, not even a review or rating. SSA is written for fun to amuse myself, primarily, and I would kind of feel bad actually charging someone money for something as unserious as that. I don't think it is good enough to ask anything in return. To use an analogy from music, SSA is more like a jam session with a bunch of friends. You're just chiling and having fun playing some music. I mean, if you are Mozart or even Eminem, your jam session is good enough to sell, but for an amateur beginner like myself, haha, no. If I want to publish something, I feel like I need to go the proper route of practice and rehearsals, which might be more similar to a classical concert performance. With SSA, I work from worldbuilding notes and a loose outline, but what you are essentially getting is the first draft with lots of so-called pantsing. Pushing out a web novel like this also means it is very difficult to go back and improve things without breaking everything else downstream. I wanted to try this "jamming" approach, as it was a good way to teach me about another aspect of writing, but to move forward, I think I need to hone my "classical" techniques, which emphasize rewriting, or at least, revising outlines. 3) While I intend to try to make $$$, my actual current goal is to "get gud". I've spent a lot of time recently trying to understand the self-publishing industry, and I'm pretty sure I can make some money by using short-term strategies with my current amateur skill level. But I've seen too many authors come and go/burnout, and really, the only way that I think I can enjoy writing and still make money on a long-term basis is to become a better writer. And the next step for me, which I haven't done much before, is to spend more time on rewriting and outlines. That is pretty much antithetical to the way SSA is developing. I've always been kind of 20/80 plotting/pantsing, but I want to spend a lot more time outlining before I even start writing. SSA jam sessions don't really fit my goal anymore. If you're curious about what's next, read on... Among other regrets, I regret not finishing SSA. It's the first story I've dropped, but then again, it's the first web novel I've attempted, so I suppose that's not a surprise. I don't think traditional web novel formats suit me that well. The whole SSA story I had loosely planned (beyond a first book or major arc) is way too large as well. Big story = good for neverending webnovel with Patreons, bad for penniless and fickle writer like me. I am currently outlining a complete trilogy to another story in great detail. I want the story to end concisely, and I also want the chance to really spend a lot of time on the full outline to spot pacing problems, character issues, lost themes, and so on. I'll still share this story on RR. What I intend to do is finish book 1, flash-publish the whole thing here for a few weeks, then publish on the big Zon. Repeat for books 2 and 3. The upcoming story will be about crafting heroes. The backdrop is an isekai-like setting, where elves will summon humans to their world as heroes, but the whole hero crafting business is still in its infancy. The elven mage researchers are figuring out how to imbue heroes with power, while the heroes are trying to figure out how to use the powers that they gain. Humans are the best hero templates because they are blank and have no intrinsic magic. Or at least that what the elves thought. The human MC has his own secrets... There will be some similarities with litrpgs, but I would call it more a progression fantasy or gamelit story. For example, the stats are very low, at least initially. Say we have a stat called Str. Going from Str = 1 to Str = 2 is a huge deal. Also, going from Dex = 0 to Dex = 1 is an even bigger deal. I guess you could call it a "low-stat litrpg", haha. Also, the heroes won't be gaining stats simply by killing things or leveling up. You can't increase stats arbitrarily, either. There will be rules to how stats can increase, and how they work with each other. The elven mages will be figuring out these rules in order to craft stronger and stronger heroes. Some inspiration will be from cultivation magic systems, but there won't be overt cultivation, at least for now. A theme I really want to explore is the idea of interactions. That includes things like hero crafter vs hero, tactics vs strategy, skill synergies, racial interactions (dwarves, elves, etc), and son. Yeah, so hero crafting. I'm super excited about this project and venturing into publishing. If you want to check out the upcoming story, you can follow my RR author profile to see when it drops here. Finally... THANK YOU TO EVERYONE! I'm very sorry that SSA is stopping, but I hope at least some of you will find the next story at least as enjoyable, if not more. Thanks to all the readers who gave SSA a shot. Big hug or solid fistbump to all of you, whichever you prefer! I hope this message is not a downer but an upper, because I am psyched!! -purlcray -------------- BLURB: Talen, youngest Master of the Koroi, makes his way to the Empire's capital to salvage his clan's fate. But the bustling city has few opportunities for the traditionalist. For the old sword clans are fading. With the rise of alchemy, gold can purchase strength that ordinarily took years of training to cultivate. Sword artists, once rare and accomplished, are quickly growing in number, especially among the wealthy noble class. Even with such alchemy, though, no one has advanced to the rank of Grandmaster in countless years. Talen's true dream is to walk the path of a sword artist to the very end while fulfilling his clan duties. And then the Swordgeists return, fabled founders of all sword arts, gods who had touched the world long ago and vanished. These myths turned into reality warn of a coming threat. Alongside this warning, they issue an invitation to the Sword System Academy, a path to power beyond the mortal realm. But first, they will hold an entrance exam... Story notes:Sword System Academia blends elements of western and asian fantasy such as xianxia and litrpg. I took parts from different genres I enjoyed and twisted them into my own creation. There will be an explicit system, both of the litrpg kind and the hard(ish) magic kind, but it is embedded within an academic structure that will develop over the course of the story. This is my attempt to design a unique type of system, the System Academia.
