Good readers, I’m very sorry that it took me so long for an update. ︶︿︶
I’m just busy with something and haven’t had time writing, and had to rewrite this chapter from the start after finding out that this chapter had too many contradiction to what I wrote before.
Those who want to proofread my work, you are welcome to do so, and I would be thankful for volunteering!
(^ω^)
(っ´▽`)っ So please enjoy this chapter.
Chapter 16
Inside the playing field, the sirens are still going on loudly and the weather was really harsh with every branch and trees swaying violently.
The heavy rains continue to pure down without any intention of stopping. Thunders furiously roar loudly at the clouded sky.
The visibility are its worse, as if the world around them are colored only in black and white. Communication devices that he crafted from maximum to 100 meter radius is now limited to about 30-25 meter radius with the interference of the harsh environment.
His sonar and map uplink are now useless in this map, although he could still somehow make use of the map in an old fashion way by predicting their position by landmarks.
“Uwa…. I’m glad that this suit was invented. The Seals really had it tough going to mission like this…”
Vayne muttered to himself as he remembered some of the record missions of the Seals, Erica felt that Vayne was saying something and asked him what he said but it was answered that it was nothing.
“Okay, listen up… I didn’t expect that we are going to play in this sort of weather. Communication devices and radars are useless in this match. Our visibility is limited, so getting separated is possible.”
He stated the harsh fact the two, to show how disadvantage their situation is with a stern face. But he still continued more of their situation.
“We are disadvantaged by number and fire power, and defending a fort with the three of us aren’t a wise idea and it seems that we’ll be surrounded. That’s why we’ll be taking the initiative, we’re bringing the fight to them.”
The twin didn’t say anything, but their expressions were showing half of disbelief and haft of it were voicing out with questions.
Seeing their expressions, nodded as he had already expected what face they would be showing, and he then gave them each module device and told them to insert it to their power suit.
As soon as they had inserted the modules the suit began to change its color from its usual color to something different, disguising themselves with color of the leaf and mud making them blend in easily without having be spotted even if moving from one place to another.

Vayne didn’t actually completed the Optical Camouflage module, instead he used the Digital Camouflage module that changed the current color to a pixellated pattern of green and brown.
The twin was surprised once again after seeing their suit changed its color in front of their eyes as if the dull color of the suit slowly washed away by this new color, inspecting the suit closely show the pixel color but a far show different results.
At their visor show their teammates contoured by a thin white line even if the focused on it closely, even if half or part of their body part is revealed easily by it. Only if they are part of the same team, the feature of it shows, but if not they are invisible to the naked eyes.
* + * + * + *
The audiences were surprised that when they just witness the Vayne’s team just vanished from the screen, it hasn’t even began and they had already vanished.
[“Oh my… It seems there is some sort of commotion happening right now in the audience, they are claiming that the challenged team are using magic but the staff also claimed that they didn’t find any magic traces in the system.”] «Commentator»
The screen that viewing the place where Vayne’s team used to be appeared a different image of the map, on the east side there is a dots of 26 and on the west side there’s 3 dot.
[“Alright folks, I just requested to input the overview of the map since the challenged team couldn’t be seen in our cameras.
The 26 dots on the east side is the challenger team, the Vhecule Alliance, and the 3 dot on the west side represents the challenged team. Because they appeared on the overview map, they are still in fact in the game.
This shows that they didn’t violate any rules that been set on the game, it shows that they didn’t transported out of the field. What do you think of this, Instructor Fujiwara, Technical Hermine.”] «Commentator»
The Commentator asked the two of what they thought of this, she also noticed that they weren’t so surprised about them disappearing from the view instead they were surprised in a different thing.
[“Fufufufu… I thought that he was crazy at first, but I didn’t expect that this sort of tactic is very effective.”] «Instructor Fujiwara»
[“I know, I even thought that he just wanted to have a flashy appearance and asked me if it can be approved of. Not just battle smart, he is also tactic smart too.”] «Technical Hermine»

Instructor Fujiwara also approved of Technical Hermine’s remark for Vayne’s tactic, the Commentator noticed that the two knows something and she was being kept in the dark.
[“It seems that you already know of this, care to shed the light for us.”] «Commentator»
She didn’t hide that fact that she’s being demanding, after seeing that they really knew about what is happening right now.
Instructor Fujiwara shrugged off her attitude towards them, Technical Hermine didn’t mind it as well.
[“I can’t tell all the details, because he asked us to kept it between us until he himself the one first to speak. But I could tell you this, a day before yesterday, he asked the two of us if his tactic had any sort of violation to the game and whether if is allowed with the use of magic. Anything beyond that need Vayne’s consent.”] «Instructor Fujiwara»
Instructor Fujiwara openly declared this to crowd, hiding her intention of “Don’t bother me, bother him”. But everyone present could already guessed what her true intentions is, “Don’t bother asking, I won’t allow anyone to take away my enjoyment find out even if you are a fellow faculty staff”.
Everyone already know Instructor Fujiwara’s sadistic nature, and if one person didn’t notice it, he / she is oblivious to his surroundings and could only pity them for their own fault. After all, Ignorance is a Bliss.
[“I… I see, thank you for the revelation. Now the match is about to begin in 3…. 2…. 1…. And now it began! The challenged team is heading away from the closest bridge!! Did they perhaps didn’t saw if because of the storm?”] «Commentator»
[“You are half right about that. The reason is because of this.”] «Instructor Fujiwara»
An image of the bridge appear on the side of the over map. On it, they saw that the bridge is racking unstably and it suddenly collapsed down to the furious rushing river.
If they had used that bridge, they would had either loss immediately before going into battle or get separated if one survive from the water or crossing.
Another image appeared in front of the previous image of the bridge, a huge tree had collapsed above ground connecting to the other side. It might not be safe to cross, but at least it wouldn’t collapsed even further once crossed.
[“As you can see, the bridge that was in front of them from the start would be their advantage if the weather wasn’t this harsh. So using it on their situation would be their disadvantage.
On the other hand, the fallen tree could be use as a bridge even if its risky to cross, it is still sturdy enough for them to cross. But if both team as to say priorities heading towards the building, they would arrive at the same time.
Although both distance is now equal, the challenger wouldn’t know if the challenged team are already inside so they are now cautious of being attack from the holes of the building.”] «Instructor Fujiwara»
Instructor Fujiwara explained as she switch from the roped bridge, the fallen tree, and the building carefully to the audience to understand the concept of the action of Vayne’s group.
Helen the commentator is now beginning to understand the movement from Instructor Fujiwara’s explanation and looked back at the video feed.
This time they showed on the where the tree bridge is, position to a better view where they will able to see Vayne’s group crossing.
[“Looked like the challenged team is now getting near the logged bridge, let’s get a better view of them and pray that we get a view of them.”] «Commentator»
She switch to another camera where it was position to view the side of the bridge, there they could see a silhouette crossing the bridge and attaching something from the other side and the that side. Two silhouettes came after next and slowly crossing the bridge.
[“It’s a shame that we couldn’t get a better view of them, but this actually showed that they didn’t actually use any magic in the game. But it’s kinda strange why they appear darker than before they actually vanish from the camera feed.”] «Commentator»
She was dejected that she couldn’t find out the secret of them disappearing from the video stream, and still visible at the same time.
Now that Vayne’s group had cross to the other side, both team are now in a race towards the building to shelter and battle it out in a confined area.
But what they didn’t know is that, Vayne has other in mind. What he plan is to use the building as a bait and slowly cripple them one by one.

Persona Non Grata
After the events of Dr. Jose Rizal's second novel "El Filibusterismo", the story follows the tale of the former students Basilio and Isagani in the aftermath of the failed assassination plot against the most powerful governing political figures in the Delos Santos residence. Now a licensed doctor and a tenured businessman, Basilio and Isagani returns to the Philippines after their 10-year venture in Spain and in the United States to spearhead a large-scale project for the Spanish crown. For the first time in the history of the country, the Spanish government has allowed Indios to pioneer major public works, and the Filipinos, seeing this as major milestone of their race, welcomed it cheering and with open arms. It was also during that same year when the new Captain-General was appointed to the Philippines following the scandal involving the outgoing Captain-General, who sent an entire battalion of Indio conscripts to be deliberately slaughtered by a gang of tulisanes led by a man going by the name 'Matanglawin' (Falcon-eye). Leonardo Montes, the incoming Captain-General, was both feared and loved by his subjects. A close friend of the king and reputed for upholding honor, discipline and goodwill among his subjects, he won the confidence of the Cortes and of the Filipino people when political unrest arose during the tenure of his predecessor when he represented the Philippines in the high courts and won the case. However, Montes, now at the early days of his tenure, is faced with a huge and pressing problem: the widespread opium trade in the Philippines. Chinese immigration to the Philippines has increased at an exponential rate since his predecessor came to power and so is the circulation of the substance within the country. And to make matters worse, strange cases of killings and abductions began to terrorize the country, with the motives of the culprit unknown...

I Have Even Read the Rulebook!

Follow Prof on his road to be rich without working, touring a whole new world without a care and witness his realisation, that despite having read the Rulebook the folks living with the System for untold millennia know more about the rules. Important notes: 1, I'm not a native speaker, so be prepared for occassional typos, iffy grammar and maybe awkward sentences. The spell check was running, when I wrote the chapters, but it works in strange ways... If you point out mistakes, I will try to correct them 2, Scheduling will be two chapters a week, posted Saturdays before noon (CET). Depending on how much new chapters I can write consistently there will be probably more but as long as I have leftover chapters, the two per week will be posted no matter what. Chapters will be around 1500-2500 words as MS Word counts it. 3, I did not and will not post this novel on another site, if you find it somewhere else, please inform me 4, The Main Character's progression is slow, there will be no Levels, Skills, Abilities, Feats, Perks and Cheat Powers raining down on him 5, I've put Comedy as a genre because of my writing style not because the novel is a comedy per se. On the other hand, Traumatising Content is there because there is a lot of speciesism - those Elves are not nice people. 6, I put a lot of pop-cultural references into the chapters, try to find them! Enjoy!

Red Street Daybreak
August Samuel Hatch was born under an inauspicious pattern of stars. It's granted him what is widely considered the most unlucky of inconveniences: becoming host to a powerful but pernicious spirit that will act as his guide and protector--and one day end his life. Sairne is sworn to stand by August's side and, when the fancy strikes her, advise him, all in the service of atoning for a past life she can’t remember having committed a grave enough offense to earn her soul indentureship in the mortal realm. Bound by a celestial contract neither one can negotiate, their fates are all they've ever known. But in a city ruled by religious right and where magic runs deep as bedrock, their search for a missing friend leads them to a dark conspiracy that could transmute the very magic that binds them to their fates, and that might grant them the ultimate choice: do they save the city or save themselves? Cross-posted on Wattpad and Ao3. For fans of fantasy YA story beats if they starred adults instead, 1920s inspired setting, lots of banter, larger cast of characters, somewhat soft magic system. Completed, but being actively edited prior to posting! I'm the only captain on this ship, so mind any errors.
