《Annotated By Sins, Magic Academy》Reboot: Chapter 22
Advertisement
“So what made you waste all your mana just to one up a Prince? Who I might just add, be brothers to the Crown Prince. The same Crown Prince your father rejected blatantly at a ball. Who’s father’s father was also rejected by your grandfather. In other words, you two have an antagonist relationship that could be said to scour the heavens. Yet, you did such a stupid thing just to one up him? Wow.” Kayla's eyes were switching between slits and dragon orb size.
“Just wow!”
Kayla threw up her hands, shook her first, planted her hands on her hips, even stomp her feet.
The whole time she ranted, I had this euphoria feeling of having let off steam. Like a weight has lifted off my shoulders and I was seconds away from flying up to the heavens as if I just took a shot of red bull.
I giggled and Kayla threw up her hands again. Walking away while cursing my seven retarded ancestors in every colorful elven language known to man. The rest looked between us before taking a side of the one that didn’t insult their fashion. They even tucked up their nose at me.
“Hmpfh!”
For some odd reason, I found this utterly funny. Enough to bend back and let out a balls clenching laugh that left me cramping the moment I stop.
I got control of myself and rushed after them. However, I couldn’t erase the smirk on my lips. Or the laughter in my eyes, the best I could achieve was a semi-casual look with my sleeves rolled up to just before the pit of my elbow.
“I’m sorry. I had some residue negative emotions built up. Lost control for a second. So how about dinner and silent film? I heard they are all the rage right now.” I buttered up, flashing my ever charming, dimpled smile.

She merely snorted, but I could see her shoulders relax, somewhat.
“We can talk about it after you help me move out of my stupid dorm. I am with three useless people who are complete slobs. Don’t you have a villa? I heard nobles have their own private housing, but for some reason, your stupid human admins think that an Elven Noble below Prince isn’t a noble. What a fucking load of shit? I’m richer than ninety- eight percent of all human nobles. And yet they want to tell me that I’m just a merchant commoner according to human standards.” she ranted with even bigger passion than when she flamed me for being a bit silly.
“If I’m not a noble then who the fuck is? Just because your family has over tens of thousands years of history and several peak experts above Sage level, doesn’t mean you're noble. At worse, it just gives you a sense of superiority to commit atrocity against your own people. Fucking scum, the lot of you.”
I cleared my throat as she pointed at my face.
“When have I ever committed sin against my own people? I am a fairly humane person. Look, I even took care of our commoner sisters. Uplifting them for free without expecting anything in return and you dare sully my family upstanding reputation and honor. If you weren’t a lady right now, I would raise my hand in protest.” I jest, pausing to flex my impressive biceps and stare at the sky with my nose turned up.
Linda coughed, “Didn’t you push that Duchess girl off your platform just because she pulled rank?”
My face sank a little.
The enchanted jumped in, “Didn’t you only invite us because it would increase the amount of credits you would receive?”

My shoulders after that.
Followed by the blacksmith, “Didn’t you only invite females? This is gender discrimination at the strongest point in human history.”
My spirit was washed away.
Kayla merely snorted, agreeing with their points, and daring me to rebuke them.
I thought of something to say but cough. I am surrounded by charming and intelligent women, thus I conceded.
My chest deflated and I walked forward with the deadman stare. Head tilted downward, eyes cast towards the great abyss, shoulders slumped, and palms facing up. Uplifting the great sin that I was burdened with since a young age.
The sin of being a man in a women world, hoho.
It was a great thing that we had quickly made it back to portal location. Otherwise I think my soul and mind my have been converted and I would be preaching feminist outside of cafeteria.
I half expected that someone would broach a topic. The topic of my insanely wasteful use of magic. Instead the so-called Prince looked at me and turned away. Like it wasn’t a big deal at all to top him in such a way.
I mean, he had a point.
For me to wipe out so many creatures so as to gain over two hundred thousand points, I indeed wasted a trump card. Even looking back now, I felt that was insanely stupid move but sometimes. Things happen in the way you least expected them and this was one of those moments that shows.
Negative deposition can, in fact, cause you harm.
Jacob counted us off, “sixteen, seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, twenty… twenty-nine of you made it back. What an utter disappointment.”
He scoffed and turned around, no longer associating with us.
“What is his deal?” Linda whispered.
“Well, you might not know this but we are progressing to the point that the resources in our kingdom can’t keep up with the number of talented people. Thus we always sought out other worlds to conquer but there are other worlds just as powerful as our own. And there are accords that prevent staggering losses.” Enchanter girl took the time to flex her knowledge. “The only worlds we can safely subjugate are those that are naturally hostile to our species. Such as demons, orcs, man-eating plants and bugs. However, we aren’t the only ones fighting for these heavily resources planets but our forces are not adequate enough to compete with the best. Thus all new harsher teaching methods have been inducted. Plus nobles aren’t all that gentle, caring teddies bears anyway. So this is nothing to them. It is just us that feels this is unfairly cruel and evil.”
The blacksmith girl nodded her head, “I always felt that the nobles were too ruthless. Now I understand, they are fighting for something bigger than what we are hoping to achieve.”
Kayla snorted, “Don’t let them fool you with such pretense. Take this useless sack of shit for example…”
Her voice cut off as I grin devilishly. My aura choked off her words. Some places she could joke and curse to her heart content but every noble had turned around to hear what she had to say and she didn’t even have the ability to beat me at my weakest.
Nothing was more clearer than that. The moment my aura stole her breath away and I was merely a fledgling Grand Magus.

Ebony Chitin - Adventures of The Hive
Ebony Chitin - Adventures of The Hive is a story centered around a Hive mind bug elf, and her favorite human-dwarf mutt Richard. The story will shift perspectives between the two, as well as other members of the Hive. Follow along on their adventures for; the friends they make, the enemies they slay, and the questions they seek to answer. Thank you for reading, as always. ^.^ Afterword: Hello there everyone, and welcome back those that have already read the first story. If you are new, don't worry too much about the first step of the series. Truly, this second part aims to cover most of what was done there. Those that have read it will know a few secrets and plot points before we see them. Though it shouldn't detract from your reading of this one. Honestly, the first one was a bit rough, but do as you will. I will warn that this will tackle some serious topics and might end up getting rather explicit in terms of what is done or seen by the characters. There is a bit to cover, so I'll explain what I can between chapters without overloading anyone, hopefully. -Cover Art drawn by Cozie [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]

The Crisis on Planet 9
Welcome to the dream colony Planet 9, where the streets are stained by blood and the buildings are filled with human remains. The creatures roaming among the abandoned cars and flying vehicles resemble almost to perfection the mindless cannibalistic zombies born from the fictional nightmares of mankind. The cities were built in the retro style of the 21st century, but the technology of the 24th century is ever present, mostly within the bodies of those mortally challenged monstrosities. After all, what turned them into these things was not an evolved organic virus, an alien disease, or some sort of magical artifact, it was the corrupted and reprogrammed nanobots within their bodies. Originally, they were meant to heal them and help them access the tech around them, but now they were the origin of this disaster. Among the rotting dead and the Nano-Z, as the survivors called them, Kardian Pandora awakens two months after getting bit by one of them. A young teacher at the local Resonance High, foolish and naive in his own way, but now driven by the Sapient AI in the nanobots inside his body to hunt down other Nano-Z and learn how to survive. For now, his only goal is to become strong enough and rejoin his students and fellow colleagues, foolishly hoping to somehow be able to get back to the time when the undead did not rule the streets. Will Kardian be able to survive in this new savage world or will his naive outlook lead him to a dead end? Volume 1 can be bought on Amazon: Resonance High

Second Wind, legend of Pandemonium (Finished/Incomplete)
The developers of the worlds leading VRMMORPG Edge Online have decided to shut down its servers after over a decade. Shugireth Darkstar, the leader of Pandemonium, Edge Online's top guild, suffers from a deadly disease and his end is near. He hasn't left his VR pod for 5 years, as the medical nanodroids at the hospital takes care of him. Without Edge, he will die, because his physical body has already been all but destroyed by the sickness. Seeing no light at the end of the tunnel, Shugireth Darkstar, the Master of Pandemonium, stubbornly stays behind as the servers shut down... If that was all, we could end this story right here. However, that was only the beginning of the legend of pandemonium. The prelude to the movement, if you will. Shall we see what happens next? -------------- Some notes from Me (The author, gasp surprise): I first wrote this (100k) as an experiment. I saw the advice about having foils for overpowered MCs, and I watched quite a few lectures on writing. I wanted to test things out for myself and see if I could carry a story through other ways than only relying on physical conflict like some thrillers do. Thus this might lean a bit towards slice of life with a romance subplot, but I don't want to give my story away so read it if u want to know more. This was basically never intended for anyone else's eyes but my own, and written to explore writing as a process. This wasn't my attempt at writing a good book, but it turned into something that I think might interest some people, so I decided to pop it up here. It is slightly old so my style and writing skills have advanced considerably since I first started this thing. Having said that, I think it's pretty readable, but I am very interested in how other people will receive this. Please feel free to criticize it and just in general shoot me some feedback on what you think. It contains light Litrpg elements, not heavy table spam, it's just the basis of the world. Although I like that sort of thing, this was written before I even knew of Royalroad and hadn't considered litrpg much. Some of you may recognize that it was slightly inspired by Overlord. Also, the Tags for sexual content and traumatizing content are there as a precaution on all of my stories pretty much, even if my story does not contain any of that at the moment. I can't really know what the future will bring, but in the case of this story I do know a little bit, since I wrote 100k words before posting it here. And I just posted it on a whim because I figured some readers on Royalroad might enjoy this story.

Aeternalis
One born of nothingness. A world born of everything. To return all to nothing. Or surrender to everything. A man born into an infinite world, trying to find his path to the top. Trials and tribulations come from friends and foes alike until all bow before him. ------------------------------------- Author here! This is my 3rd story on RoyalRoad, the other two having long since been dropped years ago. They were a mess of ideas and had no real substanence to them, leading me to begin hating writing them and eventually just stop writing altogether for about a year and a half. Finally, after reading hundreds of thousands of pages of novels, from low fantasy to sci-fi litrpg's to thousands of pages long xianxias, I finally feel ready to write a real story that isn't a cesspool of ideas blended together. I plan to see this out to the end, as I already have the first few major arcs planned out unlike my other stories where I thought of ideas as I wrote. This story takes place in a world with a litrpg system, as per tags. This isn't a VRMMO or Reincarnation story. The main character exists in and is from said world. There are some differences from other litrpg's which will be explained in author notes in the few few chapters. I plan to publich 6-7 chapters a week, each 2-3k words long. If i fail to do so I will create a back-log I have to eventually make up but as of writing this it's the summer for me so I'll have plenty of time to write. Enjoy, and welcome to the world of Aeternalis.
