《Female Immortal's Return to Earth》0013 - Rooftop Dinner
Advertisement
After they left the factory Long Jin took Yun Feng out for dinner. The location was Sun City's Seaside Hotel's rooftop restaurant, the same hotel the party was at.
This was Sun City's most famous seafood restaurant it has an amazing view of the city and the food is also highly prized.
Their table is placed in a private booth with the best view over the cityscape.
"Why here? Waste of money."
Yun Feng says while looking disinterestedly over the cityscape with her clear cold dark eyes.
"Here, because it's special."
Long Jin answers her. His expression and tone of voice feeling a bit warmer compared to how he is at work. He looks at her with a hint of warmth in his black eyes.
She takes a glance at him and notices his softening expression. Her heart moves a bit but her expression remains unmoving. To be honest she was a bit touched by his affection.
"How is it special?"
She asks while once again letting her gaze fall over the view. Even though the sky is gradually turning dark there are still many people out on the streets to enjoy the nightlife.
"This place is the first place I have dinner with you."
This time her heart moves even stronger and her eyes even widened a bit before quickly returning to their previous state. She should have expected that he would give her such a line as an answer.
"Then why make this place the first dinner?"
Yun Feng doesn't notice how her voice quivers while she asks him and only realized afterward. She closes her eyes in embarrassment.
Long Jin catches these actions of hers and his face turns into a wide smile. Ever since he met her he has been able to make expressions and emotions that he hasn't been able to experience in years.

He is highly curious about where she comes from and if her identity really is that of a normal civilian. He got a report before he met her in that factory area that she beat up some guys who were out to get her. She beat them with some mysterious shockwave technique.
But even if he was curious he didn't intend to ask, he knew that she would eventually come and tell him on her own when the time is right and they have gotten closer to each other.
After a while of not hearing Long Jin's answer, Yun Feng opens her eyes once again. What meets her as the looks at him was his big smile. This is his answer.
Soon enough two bowls of Sichuan spicy boiled fish is placed in front of them, together with a large bowl of rice. When Yun Feng takes the first piece of fish into her mouth she feels how the spices together with the hot soup give a burning feeling to her tongue.
The food was also accompanied by some glasses of water and some red wine so she directly took the water and poured it into her throat. It nicely soothed her burning tongue.
In fact, there wasn't much spicy food in the other world, they didn't use many spices in their food at all but treated most of it as medical herbs. It had been a really long time since Yun Feng tasted any spicy food.
Actually, in her past life spicy food was her favorite food type so it was something she really missed while in the other world.
She picks up another bite of fish with her chopsticks together with some rice and puts it into her mouth. Even though she is delightful of the spicy taste she doesn't show it on her face but shows a cold and serious expression.

Long Jin observes her a bit before also seriously digging into the food. He loves how she delicately eats her food, one bite after another.
Yun Feng doesn't touch her wine, while she does enjoy drinking it but Earth's wine just usually wasn't as good as the wine produced in that world. Besides she likes sweet wines more rather than dry wines like the one brought before her.
But even if she actually liked dry wines she wouldn't drink any of it tonight. She has no idea about the alcohol content in the wine and she is with company. She doesn't want to spill anything about herself to him in her drunkenness.
Before long both of them had finished up their food. Long Jin paid the bill and then they left the restaurant together.

The Children of the Divine Limit
A realistic, psychological isekai: What pushes people to rejoice, to torture, to sacrifice, to kill? What gives some the will to survive and thrive in a new land and others the craving for dominance and exploitation? What would those who grew up without power all their lives do when given the approval and blessings of God Himself? How far will someone go to protect those close to them? How far will someone go to exact vengeance against an unjust world? How far can someone go before the abyss looks back at them? "Everything in the world is about sex — except sex. Sex is about power." - Oscar Wilde “Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power.” - Abraham Lincoln Greed is the worst of all the deadly sins; all of human history lays out the evidence to support this thesis. Consider all of the above before reading this story: A 12th-grade high school class is sent to another world; a world of sword and magic called Omicron where other-worlders are revered as heroes given the divine blessing of the Lord God Sapiora, creator of Omicron's human race. It is currently a world at war. The humans of Omicron need these divine heroes as weapons against the Demon Emperor and the demihuman forces of the evil god Azazelin. However, two students within the class, Ajax Leonid and Shaula Seikennith, haven't been given the hero's blessing. They've been given something else, something more curious; the blood of a deity who noticed their specialness. As a result, after escaping the clutches of their summoners who tried to kill them for their lack of heroic potential, Ajax and Shaula enter the new world of Omicron with no one on their side except each other. While wading through rivers of blood, Ajax and Shaula seek a stable life, a life where they can salvage happiness. They have each other above all else. Perhaps the cost will be worth it. Perhaps not.

Far in the past, there was a civilization much more advanced than the one of modern times. Evidence of that time remains, but it is all but shrouded in mystery as there remains no way to decipher it.

Scales, born upon humans, are a mystery in their origins but are the source of their abilities and their way towards advancement. Although normally powerless, humans have adapted to the scales and thus can connect with the power of the universe, much like the other races that inhabit its various corners. In one of these corners, there exists a human settlement where Lancing follows his father's footsteps to begin his own ascent to power. However, he finds he is far different from his gifted father, whose scales below his eyes were among the purest ever seen, reaching gem-like quality.
