《Guns in another world》Acquaintance

Hearing the attendants reply Fionn looked at the group with renewed interest.
The group consisted of three boys and two girls; the guy in front who was talking the most had blonde hair and an average physique; the guy on his right side had long blue hair and a handsome face, seemed the quiet type with an aloof expression; and the rest of the group members sat on a table behind these two; the last guy of the group was kinda gloomy with an unreadable expression. Anyone would be hesitant to approach him because of his unruly get-up and melancholy demeanour. The first of the two girls, with blue hair and big eyes, appeared lively with her animated expression as she chatted with the gloomy guy, annoying him to no end. She appears to be related to the blue haired guy at the front.
Fionn's attention was drawn to the last girl in the group, not only because other members of the group surrounded her as if to protect her, but also because she looked familiar to him. She wore a totally white gown with a veil concealing her face and had platinum blonde hair.
"She looks familiar," Fionn thought as he glanced at her, unable to link her appearance to anyone in his recent memory, after a while, he gave up and asked the attendant to escort him to his seat.
As she sensed a gaze directed at her, the girl turned around and looked at Fionn, who was making his way towards a table on the balcony, with an astonished expression on her face as she muttered, "Is he Fionn?"
"What happened, do you know who he is?" inquired the girl next to her.
"Perhaps," the veiled girl responded, her gaze fixed on Fionn.
"Tell Edgar to take these folks away; we need some privacy, and call Timothy; I've got a task for him." The veiled girl continued, now glancing at the girl next to her.

The girl carefully listened to her instructions, then nodded and rose from her seat without questioning her.
She returned and took her seat after a while, followed by the blue-haired boy. "What do you want me to do?" the boy questioned directly.
"Look at him, ask him if he's Fionn from the Black Stag Kingdom, and if he is, invite him to dinner." The veiled girl replied, pointing to Fionn.
The boy nodded and walked away, but as he walked away, a blonde guy came and sat down, asking, "Why did you suddenly ask me to send those people away?" in an upset tone.
"You were just casually chitchatting and flaunting your status; we're not here to do that." Said the blue-haired girl, pissed
"I did not ask you." The blonde guy responded coldly, then looked to the Veiled girl for an answer.
"You'll know in a while," the veiled girl said with a mysterious smile.
On the other side.
Fionn was getting ready for a magnificent meal on the balcony, enjoying the cool breeze.
Suddenly, from the side, he heard an emotionless voice say, "hello, my name is Timothy, may I have the pleasure of knowing your name?"
Fionn looked to his side, perplexed as to who would give his introduction in such a dull tone.
What greeted him was a handsome man with a poker face; "this guy is from the Legacy group, what is he doing here?" thought Fionn as he stood up, shook the man's hand, and said, "Nice to meet you brother, my name is Fionn."
"Are you from the Black Stag Kingdom?" asked the man out of nowhere.
"Yes," Fionn replied, perplexed.
"Actually, my friend there seemed to know you, so she asked me to confirm your identity and invite you to a meal." Timothy explained in the same emotionless tone as before, pointing to the veiled girl.

Fionn nodded in agreement because she appeared to be familiar to him as well.
"Would you like to join us for dinner?" Timothy inquired.
"Of course, I'd love to see an old friend." Fionn replied with a smile.
"Follow me then," Timothy said, emotionless as always.
On the Legacy group's side.
"Just what is Timothy thinking bringing that guy over here?" asked the blonde haired guy, his mood still grumpy.
As Fionn and Timothy approached the table, the veiled girl stood up and smiled, saying, "Long time no see Fionn."

The Essence of Cultivation
After experiencing five years of an adventurer's life, Arcanist Sylar Wershin now spends his days catching up on developments in Essence Studies and teasing apart the functions of arcane trinkets and artifacts discovered by him and his companions throughout their time travelling the realms of Resham. An unexpected accident during the study of his latest subject of intrigue, however, displaces him across the Planes beyond what any known spell is capable of achieving. Now finding himself lost in a realm rich in previously-limited Transcendental Essences, however, does he truly even want to return back to his old world? If nothing else, plagiarising - ahem, learning new spell structures by observing the local mages should prove entertaining. Sure, there were new dangers in this foreign world, but they wouldn't be anything a fancy bit of spellwork couldn't solve. Though, he would appreciate it greatly if someone could explain to him just what this 'cultivation' business was, why the local Mages were all muscle-brained freaks obsessed with immortality, and why they all seemed to lack any appreciation for the finer details of Essence manipulation. That would be nice.

8 110Peerless Hegemon
Warning: Can be quite tearjerking and depressing (or so others say). If you are weak to that and hates that kind of thing, then this story is not for you === Ye Feng lived two lives in one lifetime. First, he basked in the light of Righteousness, becoming an idol of peace and justice. Second, he trod the mired path of the Darkest Path, becoming an object of fear and death. One lifetime, Two Identities, countless experiences, still without purpose. A meaningless existence. An empty husk. In his selfishness of wanting to fill the void in him, he became the catalyst that destroyed Reality. He now controlled everything, ultimate power, uncontestable by none. But he cast it away, to be reborn anew. With a new name and a family, his goal was to understand, his place. To understand how to no longer feel empty. With his family consisting of a Reincarnated Twin Sister and Parents with inscrutable pasts, his desire was not that of grandeur. In this lifetime, he wishes not to hold power, not to gain eternal life, nor control of everything, he only wishes to live, and hopefully look at sunrise with a smile on his face. === Disclaimer: The story focuses on the Main Character’s emotional and personality growth. He is someone who is, obviously OP in some perspectives but almost crippled in others. He is not soft and does not spare anyone because it is “Bad” so expect that there would be genocide and some bloody encounters. I want this instead of just the MC’s search for life and its complication. Where Philosophy and values exist. A story where every action has proper consequences, and not everything can be conquered with a single punch (unless it can be, no need for an unnecessary complication if it can be avoided). Further Notes: This is a story that will gradually increase in word counts and become Chunkier as it progresses and will almost never be below 2000 words, but if the word count will only lengthen the chapter at the expense of a finished tale, it could and would be cut off before 2000 mark), give it a try, it won’t disappoint (I hope). And if by chance that you like it, giving a good Rating and Review will be encouraging to me and possible readers. Schedule: Monday and Friday If you want to read ahead and/or support me to creating this story, you can do it through my Patreon (link below the next chapter button.) This is also a rewrite of this: Peerless Hegemon [OLD] | Royal Road
8 114Aelios Online
The year is 2040, technology has progressed on all fronts, but no field has shown as much growth as Virtual Reality. Aelios Online is the latest of innovations in the field, creating an entirely different world that its players may "dive" into. The world of Aelios itself is a world of both magic and technology, with the city of Retissia offering a more magical landscape compared to the more industrial streets of Gram. While the design of the world is impressive, the real draw of Aelios Online is its master AI, RIN. Quests, NPCs, the very shape of Aelios itself are all dictated by RINs response to player action and behavior, and over the course of the 5 years that Aelios Online has been active, the world has been changed in unimaginable ways. For every player action, there is a RIN reaction, and that has remained true throughout the game's entire runtime. There are many stories, many legends, that have been carved into the world of Aelios, but here we focus on two new players to the world. One aims to create in this new world, the other, to escape. Updates every Monday and Friday.
