In the blink of an eye, three days passed.
In those three days, Ye Wan Wan spent her time mostly sleeping and reflecting on her memory of her previous life.
Si Ye Han was no different from the past. For three whole days, he didn't appear at all. The servants at the house were all buried in their work and rarely spoke to her. They didn't even dare to make any eye contact.
Such an enormous house but it was like a crypt.
Ye Wan Wan changed into her pajamas and looked at the time. She immediately walked towards the yard.
The moonlight was beautiful with a gentle breeze, easing her fear of the terrifying memories of the cage she was trapped in.
This garden actually had a nice view. After all, it had been designed by Si Ye Han himself. He hired the world's top group of architects and it took five full years to finish building it in the top location in Imperial City.
It was such a pity that in her previous life, she hadn't appreciated it. She abhorred this cage that imprisoned her and only wanted to destroy it.
In plain sight, she could see a large, burnt patch of grass, an intentionally cut flowerbed, and a murky pond... these were all her "masterpieces".
"Wan Wan——"
Then, a familiar voice abruptly resounded in the evening wind.
Ye Wan Wan looked up from a withered rose in the direction of the voice.
Under the dim light, she could see a man dressed in an expensive and luxurious suit. He was charming and... classy.
She had to admit, Gu Yue Ze did in fact captivate her.
Si Ye Han, that devil, paled in comparison with him.

Gu Yue Ze stood a few steps away from her and frowned.
Ye Wan Wan noticed his subtle reaction, so she took a look at her clothes.
At that moment, she was still in her heavy metal clothes, with a thick mess of makeup on her face.
As her wardrobe didn't have any regular clothes, she thought she might as well maintain her old image. She also didn't want to arouse suspicion by changing drastically in such a short period of time.
Gu Yue Ze stared at her coldly, his expression filled with disappointment, "Wan Wan! How could you degrade yourself like this?"
Degrade myself?
Ye Wan Wan tasted these words, mocking her.
In her previous life, she'd given him her entire heart. In order to prove her loyalty to him, she'd made herself dress so strangely and repulsively.
But in the end, all she got in return was him saying that she degraded herself.
She knew that Shen Meng Qi spoke ill of her in front of Gu Yue Ze, but if this man had the slightest affection for her, he wouldn't believe anything Shen Meng Qi said.
Since Shen Meng Qi was her best friend, she came over often to keep her company. Thus, she could come in and out as she pleased. She even allowed Gu Yue Ze in secretly.
Just as Ye Wan Wan was about to speak, a chill went up to her spine.
Si Ye Han...
He's here!
She was instinctively aware of that man's presence.
In her previous life, she didn't realize Shen Meng Qi betrayed her. Si Ye Han watched her in the dark the whole time she cheated on him, marking the beginning of her nightmare...
Ye Wan Wan sighed gently, forcing herself to ignore the presence of Si Ye Han. She looked at Gu Yue Ze indifferently, chuckled, and asked, "I wonder which perspective you're questioning me from? That of my ex-fiance? Or... my brother-in-law?"
Gu Yue Ze's expression turned heavy at Ye Wan Wan's sarcasm, "Wan Wan, I know you blame me, but I was also helpless. Whatever happened, I'm responsible for what you've become today. Leave with me now and I'll take you out of Imperial City!"

Memories of the Fall
This is a story about two sisters, Jun Arai and Jun Sana, and their friends, Juni, Ling and Shu who make their living as members of the Hunter Bureau, an organisation dedicated to dealing with the terrifying flora and fauna endemic to their home Great World. When they get dragged into a grand scheme to unpick the ancient secrets entombed within one its foremost forbidden zones in their world, the Yin Eclipse Mountains, they must all try to survive the dark machinations, eldritch undercurrents and the echoes of a terrible conflict trying to re-emerge into an unsuspecting cosmos that had rather hoped it was done with that kind of thing a few eras hence. So please come join Arai, Sana, Juni, Ling, Shu and the rest of my cast as they journey through strange lands, meet all kinds of unusual beings and unravel some of the power and glory of a land time tried very hard to forget. I promise terrifying mushrooms, angry snakes, confused gods, even more confused cultivators and much, much more! Update schedule: (02/6/2022) As chapters are done, sorry. Progress: Currently up to old chapter 13-15. Chapter 24(or 25)/13, Parts 1 & 2 will be the end of the rework. Part 2 has been temporarily delayed due to me getting a frozen shoulder in the middle of June, which has been very slow to properly clear up. It is getting better, though, but Shoulder/neck is the worst set of muscles to have issues with ;( You can currently pick up most story threads after the rewritten chapters, starting from chapter 13-14 (old) Genre-wise, this is a bit hard to pin down. It's technically a Xianxia (because cultivators!), but it also veers towards Xuanhuan and has more traditional High Fantasy elements and a bit of Gods and Monsters and All Myths Are (on some levels) Valid. It also has a fairly large, ensemble cast, so if multiple point's of view are not your thing I am sorry. It won't ever really be considered 'grimdark' by any real measure of that definition but it does go to some complicated and fairly places dark occasionally, which I will note in author pre-chapter notes when expedient!. About the Author I mainly write fiction for my own hobby, it makes a nice change from academic scribbling! I started writing this quite a number of years ago. It has grown somewhat organically out of a bunch of different interests in all kinds of Mythology, World Building, Drawing Maps, Archaeology, Anthropology, History and Epic Fantasy fiction into what it is today. So I hope you enjoy the story and thanks for reading! Other stuff The cover is made by the author, using photos taken by the author. There is a Discord Server- Please come and chat, but beware of spoilers.
8 195The Lion in Wolf's Clothing
No one said turning his life around would be easy. No one said all of his effort would be worth it in the end. The only thing anyone ever told this reformed delinquent was he would never make it into the best school in the country, yet he made it that far. Surely the rest would work itself out on its own, right? Right? If he wants to keep himself on the right track he needs to figure out how the nation's elite gets things done. Studying, manners, duels for supremacy. Just normal stuff. Who knows, he might end up liking it more than his old life. If he survives.

8 98Patchwork System
Notification (cannot be ignored): For being the first being to kill another of its own species after Sublimation, Lyam Aldren is awarded the Title of Cain’s Successor. Let all fear the Kinslayer!!! Lyam Aldren, killer for hire, was just going about his business when he suddenly received a notification from something called the System. Apparently, the entirety of Earth, its denizens and its matter were transported into the world of the System, planted in 'patches' all throughout the infinite world. The world of the Patchwork System is one of challenges, where life is cheap, power is king, and Classes and levels are a thing. In a brutal world, there is perhaps room for a killer with bloodstained hands to find his own way, free of his past. However, his Title and his inherent nature plague him, his fragmented personality laid bare to those with the eyes to see, and if he doesn't become powerful enough to defeat or escape those who would use or destroy him, he will quickly be devoured by the merciless world created by the System. Compared to my previous work, this is a more 'classic' litrpg setup, with clear (if somewhat complex) progression through levels and skill gains, with a 'system apocalypse' setup. Unlike most system apocalypse story protagonists, Lyam is neither a leader nor is he particularly interested in saving his fellow Earthlings. This is a story of a man who is both endangered and set free by the destruction of his old world, as he finds both power, new discoveries, and adventure in a place where his past matters not at all and power is the only language most speak. Later in the story, there will be harem elements, but the first volume is dedicated to Lyam's first months in the System. For those who are more interested in the Heirs of the Hooded King, I am putting it on hiatus as I rework the setting and future story developments a bit.
