《The Beginning, The End, And Everything In Between》Chapter 9 [The Perfect Couple... of Sadists]
Advertisement
Farren was walking along the dirt path while humming a tune to herself, she had relieved most of her tension she had built up from 8 years of being a pathetic child, at least now the illusion was gone and the annoyances were all dead... though Farren did feel like she forgot something.... before Farren could finish that thought Xavier chimed in.
"Heyo, Farren, I gotta ask, where are we going?" [Xavier]
"We're going on an adventure!" [Farren]
"Oi." [Xavier]
Xavier replied with an annoyed tone, he could tell she was hiding something.
"Fine, I had a plan to go to the Academy, Creon. I am the appropriate age to sign up." [Farren]
"Yeah, but you tend to talk like you're older than that, are you perhaps... a loli?" [Xavier]
Farren made a strange choking sound, she hadn't thought about it before but her mental age was 32 now so she could be a loli, but she was technically 8... She shook her head, that really wasn't the problem here, how did this world know about Loli's?, it suddenly occurred to her that that God ruled and created this world, he probably added his own twists.
"I am not a loli, I am 8 years old and perfectly sa- *ahem* sane" [Farren]
Her voice broke on the last part, Xavier raised an eyebrow, even Farren's own voice didn't believe she was sane.
"Anyway, you want to go the Academy? Why? you seem more adept than most of the teachers there, you cast a massive darkness spell over all those corpses and made them permanent and set a spell for the crows and guts, and you didn't even look tired, in fact I didn't even know half of those spells existed." [Xavier]
An spell was extremely hard to cast, it required a massive amount of mana and extreme concentration, it manifested an illusion that was permanent until the spell creator died.
"Hehe~ that's just because I'm me and I couldn't create a ghost town without adding an effect. The reason I want to go there is because I already have a plan to make it my new artwork, in my old wor- *ahem* I had this dream about skinning people and thought it might be fun do something like that... but on a much larger scale, you want to help? I did awaken you to your dark side" [Farren]
"You make it sound so much more magical than it actually was, really I just helped you create the most horrid thing the kingdom or maybe even the world has ever se- yeah you awakened my dark side" [Xavier]
X admitted this in defeat, his inner sadist had finally came out after being repressed for so long by Farren and her offer, she did help him release all that pent up stress from being with that party...
"Ok i'll help you, there is a few things you need to know about the academies-" [Xavier]

Farren cut him off "Wait there is more than one?" she said.
"Yep and they're very different too, the one you talked about is called Creon, as you already know. It only recruits the talented, you have to prove your skills against one of the teachers which are all B ranked and above, you aren't expected to win, just prove your skills" [Xavier]
"Do you mean A ranked as in ranked by the Adventurers Guild? Also does that mean there is a higher level than A rank?" [Farren]
"Yes to both questions, you have the basic system of start from D and go to C, B, A, and though A is impressive there is still 3 more ranks above it, they are S class, SS class, and SSS class, anyone who is S class and above is either treated like a king or a monster, mainly because the strength of an S class could destroy several towns, an SS class could destroy a small kingdom or depending on what they train in, a large one. Then there are the SSS class who could take out a whole continent, even though they are one rank apart the power difference is huge, an SS class could never defeat an SSS class but I know that's not what you're curious about, I know you're curious about my class~" [Xavier]
"Not really" [Faren]
"I am an archer a double short-sword fighter, and ranked A!, I am known by the name Double Red and I am wanted by many teams!" [Xavier]
"I really could not care less" [Farren]
"I have slain over a thousand monsters by my arrows and millions by my swords!" [Xavier]
"Ok, I have actually gotten to dangerous levels of not caring" [Farren]
"I have saved many fair maidens and-" [Xavier]
Farren stabbed him with her scythe she morphed into a dagger, right in the stomach. He only looked at her with confused eyes.
"I never said my dangerous levels of not caring were dangerous to me now would you SHUT UP!" [Farren]
He nods vigorously, tears are slightly forming in his eyes. Farren used her recently learned healing magic from her Light Affinity.
"Ok, now continue about the academies" [Farren]
Despite being just stabbed, Xavier's mentality recovers fast, he's an idiot but he wasn't an A rank for nothing.
"Yes, okay I already addressed the Creon Academy but then there is the Arien Academy, while the Creon Academy is for strong stuck up brats, the Arien Academy is for rich stuck up brats, obviously there are a few good apples that aren't as pretentious and arrogant in these schools but who cares about them right?" [Xavier]
This time Farren nodded her head vigorously, she always hated righteous people and goody-two-shoes.
"Exactly!, I feel maybe I should slaughter the Arien Academy first, higher chance of some nobles with a conscience to kill and torture, it seems like it would be more deserving... but I need money and probably some social backing to get in, good thing I have my Mind Magic!" [Farren]

Now it's the elf's turn to make a strange choking noise.
"Wait sorry did you say Mind Magic? As in the rarest and most dangerous magic form out there?, I'm surprised you haven't already made the whole country go crazy and kill each other" [Xavier]
"It's rare and dangerous? I am pretty well trained in it so I think I'm fine, I had eight years to practise and my affinity is already S rank hehe~ also I don't always kill and create mass panic and destruction needlessly, take you as an example!" [Farren]
"You stabbed me literally just a minute ago, I don't see your point" [Xavier]
"I mean when I killed all your friends and tortured Blondie, but I decided against killing you when you also found Blondie's condition fucking hilarious so I decided to keep you around, especially when you turned out to be a closet sadist!" [Farren]
"True, I feel like I discovered something important about myself, by the way have you decided what academy to kill first? I suggest the Creon Academy, then they'll realise they should have accepted me, I WAS BETTER THAN THAT SLUT WHO GOT THE SPOT INSTEAD AND THEY KNOW IT!" [Xavier]
Xavier shouted this into the forest and trees, probably because they are the only things that would listen to his problems.
"Whoa, I think I can guess why you were a closet sadist now, I bet daddy issues" [Farren]
".................. it was always my brother who got the attention, even though I was better at archery and swords..." [Xavier]
Xavier said this in a quiet voice, it seems he doesn't like to admit he has issues. Meanwhile, while he was rambling on about his father never being proud of him, Farren was thinking about which academy should she decimate first.
She had big plans for this country and it all started with the downfall of one or both of their main structural culture basis which was to be an adventurer and learn how to fight, obviously she didn't expect the destruction of the academies to be permanent, humans always rebuilt and repopulated. It was one of the reasons Farren loved them so much, it just meant more to kill for her. Soon she would have to some up with a counter for them rebuilding the academies.
"X, I'm going to Creon first, I have a plan to make you become a teacher and I'll be a student, I'll become the best in the school and get an audience with the king and then decapitate him in front of his family, and then burn the family alive while their nobles and citizens watch, i'll then go back and destroy Creon Academy and make all the students who thought they were prodigies look and be helpless while their school burns!" [Farren]
"Ok, you obviously have way worse issues than me, but I like your thinking! Most of those kids think they're the best when they don't even have any fighting experience, maybe when you make me a teacher I'll teach them a life lesson, how do you plan on doing that anyway?" [Xavier]
Farren smiled her most evil smile, it looked especially sinister on an 8 year old's body, even Xavier felt a shiver down his spine.
"First, I'm going to have to kill you." [Farren]
"What? NO, STAY AWAY FROM ME!" [Xavier]
The elf started running, he had almost reached the middle of the forest when he heard Farren's laughter behind him, slowly he turned around. Farren was doubled over and laughing so hard you would expected her stomach to fall out from the convulsing
"I-I was ju- HAHAHAHA I was just jokin- HAHAHAHA" [Farren]
Through Farrens gasping her words and spouts of laughter in between, Xavier got the gist of what she meant, the forest they had run to from the village was dark and had a creepy aura, Farren enjoyed it due to her just being plain crazy but Xavier was not especially liking it, his own craziness wasn't strong enough to douse down the creepiness. But most of all he still didn't quite trust Farren, she killed her family and he had seen was she had done to their bodies, or what was left of them, her uncle had his head literally shoved up his ass with his spine taken out and shoved down his throat, and her mother had been made a chandelier by her left-over bones and hanging flesh, if you could say you were friends with Farren, it probably meant she was just tricking you for her own cover or planning to kill you in an alley later.
"I was just testing you, I plan to remodel your body, I can't make you my own species-" [Farren]
"I thought you looked weird, that also explains a lot..." [Xavier]
"But I can use my Mind Magic and take out your soul, then remodel the corpse to your liking, that way you won't get recognised" [Farren]
"but wouldn't that be extremely risky? and dangerous? I don't want to be a lab rat!" [Xavier]
"Ahh, X, my pointy eared friend..." [Farren]
Farren tried to sling her arm around Xavier but was too short, so she just levitated herself. The blond elf didn't quite live up to the stereotype of all elves being beautiful, in fact he had just an average face with slightly pointed features. but Farren wasn't one to pay attention to such details...
"You my friend, are plain, and boring. So what i'm going to do is rip your soul out, make you all pretty, and put it back in, and you are going to fucking like it. Ok?" [Farren]
Xavier nodded his head vigorously, it would normally it would be quite pathetic for a man to be terrified of a child but if anyone was here right now they would be pissing their pants,

Farren had her happy face on, which meant shit was going to go down.

8 85DEMON KING IN MAKING

8 161Reincarnated As A Benevolent Tyrant
NOTICE: This story is under rewrite. New novel has been published. Search **RE: Tyranny** in Royalroad for the new novel.Link- Re: Tyranny Thank You! ------------------------ "Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory." What a brilliant line, isn't it? James was a boy who had nothing to worry about. A happy family, a nice childhood. What's more to ask? But one day, everything changed. He lost everything in the blink of an eye. The only thing left for him were the memories and dreams of the past. Trying to cope up with the loss, he cut all ties with the outside world and became a shut-in, having no one left to call his own or to rely upon. There was nothing left for him in this world, but still he lived and soon found a purpose in his life, which lead him to create something that could change the world.And on the very day when his dream project was about to come to the light, he lost his life, trying to save a little girl from an unfortunate accident. "Will I ever be remembered...? I wish... someone would." These were the last word James mumbled before his conscious faded into darkness. But his life didn't end there, as he is transmigrated into the body of an arrogant, worthless Duke's son in some unknown land with no memories about who is or any idea about where he is. In an era of political turmoil and civil strife, the Duke's son is forced to prove his worth for inheriting the title. Will he be able to accept the new reality and prove himself by leading this country into a prosperous future? Or will he cease to the pressure of his past and lose everything once more? Disclaimer: This is not a power-fantasy or a 'feel-good' story. If you feel a protagonist should never lack agency (especially in early story) or make compromises because of difficult circumstances, then this fiction is probably not for you. It is a story that delves deep into real world sociological/psychological subjects and explores many topics of gray morality. I wrote it because I like stories that make me think more about the world around us, not to detach myself from reality. Some aspects you can expect based on the tags include:- [Kingdom Building]: political drama, geopolitical/geoeconomic strategy- [Army Building]: massive battles featuring in-depth planning, combined arms, and operational logistics- [Identity Crisis]: someone translated into a whole different world having to rebuild their identity and life aims The story starts off slowly, more like a slice of life than action-adventure, but I guarantee you it will get there. For those who want to skip the slow part, start from Chapter - 35 (Beginning of The End) (The whole Disclaimer section is copied from Aorii as I am too busy writing the complete story.) And yes, just for General Knowledge, James will become OP throughout the story. He is not some legendary guy who will pull out Excalibur & conquer the entire world. Update Schedule - One chapter a day. This novel is also available on Scribble Hub. And again, I humbly thank you for reading it. I hope you stick throughout the journey.
