《The villainess is... Is she?》Chapter 11

"Are you still mad about it just now?" Kyle shook his head softly , looking at the girl beside him pouting a small cute beak with her mouth, her cheek is rosy by her anger.
"Shut up!" Clair shouted without turning to him. After what Kyle said at the restaurant, all the guys apologize to her and quickly back out.
She was then dragged by him to the counter to take the foods then again dragged back to the carriage.
Everything happened so fast and the moment she was able to digest all the happening, they already hit the road.
"Don't you get what happen just now? It could get dangerous , you know?" Kyle asked her with a raising eyebrow.
"Huh? What happen? Aren't we just talking? Did something happen? Or, are they a group of bad guys?" Clair looked at him, confused.
"You didn't know? What did they asked you just now?" Kyle looked surprised and amused. 'Is she really... No way right? Those people were so obvious and eyeing her like a hungry wolves.' He thought.
"Well, they ask some brief and simple question, like my name, am I new there and things like that. Oh yeah, and the nose bleed, it's so weird, maybe because it was crowded and the weather is hot. I told them already to give space as it is suffocating." Clair spoke innocently with the tone of someone thinking.
Kyle stunned and then laughed helplessly. "Oh my god! You really are! Oh my dense bunny! That make it better! Oh my god, you're so cute I wanna squeeze you right now!" Kyle pat Clair's head.
"Huh?" Clair look at him confusedly, 'what is this guy talking about? Dense? Wait! Is he calling me stupid?!' thinking like that, she pouted again and hurrumphed angryly.

But in the eyes of Kyle, he only saw a cute bunny with rosy cheeks pouted with clouds of tiny steam coming out from her.
Well, it can't be blamed on Clair as her life as Claire Luna is only surrounded by books and Sophy and never gotten the chance to be surrounded by guys, much more getting close to them. Kyle is the first guy getting this close to her.
Suddenly, "Grukk.." Clair stunned and her cheeks immediately went red, her hands covered her tummy. 'Why god! Why embarrassed me like this! It's even in front of this guy!'
Kyle chuckled when he saw her stunned and embarrassed little face and take out the lunchboxes from the restaurant. He pushed one to her.
"Why do you order three?" He asked when he noticed there are three lunchboxes.
"Um, I thought, Lance might get hungry as we didn't stop during our journey, so I ordered one for him." Clair said timidly as she received the lunchbox pushed to her.
Kyle raised an eyebrow, 'Oh? Even caring for a lowly driver? As thought of my future wife! So adorable and kind! Lovely!' His heart went spring from the warmth and love but his face remain unchanged.
Clair saw it and thought he misunderstood her for caring for other guy so she quickly explain. "No, there's no other guy, Lance is the driver."
Kyle smirked, "Oh? Are you thinking that I'm jealous?" He leaned in, close to her face.
Clair immediately blushed when his face is so close that he can clearly see his eyelashes fluttered when he blinks. 'Yes, why do I feel the need to explain to him who is Lance? Did I really think he will be jealous? No way!'
"Wh-what do you mean?! Shut up and eat! Aren't you hungry?" Clair pushed him away, but the guy won't budge even an inch.

"Hm, hungry? Yeah, I am. I wanna eat you." Kyle said while grinning ears to ears, flirty yet innocent like a child asking for a candy.
"Huh?! How do you even eat me? I'm not food." Clair went blank, poor her, it's already bad that she is dense, yet she dig her own grave for her to be buried in it. As..
"You're not food, but you're the dessert, I'll eat you like this." As soon as he finished his words, his lips went straight to her lips and with her mouth opened slightly from shock, his tongue skillfully went on a wonderful adventure in her mouth.
Clair try to push him away but Kyle is too strong and one of his hands held her waist, pulling her close to him till her chest plastered to his body, another hand held the back of her head, prevent her from escaping.
His tongue went to every nook and corner of her mouth and tease Clair's tongue to play along, savoring the sweetness from her.
With his lead, Clair's tongue slowly danced along and her hands subconsciously hug Kyle making a certain someone more excited and his tongue went more wild.
Clair slowly melting and held onto Kyle's neck as her breath slowly being taken away from the kiss, before she lost her breath, their lips part reluctantly and string of silver thread could be seen glistening when the sunlighg shone on it.
Seeing Clair with chaotic breath and melting is his arm, Kyle went excited and he hugged her while he started kissing, sucking and licking her neck and down to her nape and her shoulder.
Clair knew something is going on and immediately went panicked. "St-stop mmph, no, I don't want it,angh, it's too early, please? I'm scared."
Clair plead while tears started to form in her eyes from the pleasure she felt on her neck and shoulder.
Kyle looked up and saw her face.
His eyes showed reluctant but he knew too that it were still too early to do it, so he had to be patient and not scared her away. He slowly nodded and cupped her face softly, holding her like a treasure.

Sword System Academia
2/17 NOTICE: I'm putting this on hiatus, possibly permanently. I didn't want to spam with an "update chapter", so hopefully here and in the story blurb will get enough eyeballs. There are a couple reasons for ending SSA for now. 1) I wrote the next chapter but wasn't happy with it. I've been less and less satisfied with SSA's quality the more I thought about it. Part of the reason is... 2) I am seriously thinking about trying to publish some novels to help pay the bills, since I don't have my other source of income anymore. I have never asked for anything from SSA readers, no money, not even a review or rating. SSA is written for fun to amuse myself, primarily, and I would kind of feel bad actually charging someone money for something as unserious as that. I don't think it is good enough to ask anything in return. To use an analogy from music, SSA is more like a jam session with a bunch of friends. You're just chiling and having fun playing some music. I mean, if you are Mozart or even Eminem, your jam session is good enough to sell, but for an amateur beginner like myself, haha, no. If I want to publish something, I feel like I need to go the proper route of practice and rehearsals, which might be more similar to a classical concert performance. With SSA, I work from worldbuilding notes and a loose outline, but what you are essentially getting is the first draft with lots of so-called pantsing. Pushing out a web novel like this also means it is very difficult to go back and improve things without breaking everything else downstream. I wanted to try this "jamming" approach, as it was a good way to teach me about another aspect of writing, but to move forward, I think I need to hone my "classical" techniques, which emphasize rewriting, or at least, revising outlines. 3) While I intend to try to make $$$, my actual current goal is to "get gud". I've spent a lot of time recently trying to understand the self-publishing industry, and I'm pretty sure I can make some money by using short-term strategies with my current amateur skill level. But I've seen too many authors come and go/burnout, and really, the only way that I think I can enjoy writing and still make money on a long-term basis is to become a better writer. And the next step for me, which I haven't done much before, is to spend more time on rewriting and outlines. That is pretty much antithetical to the way SSA is developing. I've always been kind of 20/80 plotting/pantsing, but I want to spend a lot more time outlining before I even start writing. SSA jam sessions don't really fit my goal anymore. If you're curious about what's next, read on... Among other regrets, I regret not finishing SSA. It's the first story I've dropped, but then again, it's the first web novel I've attempted, so I suppose that's not a surprise. I don't think traditional web novel formats suit me that well. The whole SSA story I had loosely planned (beyond a first book or major arc) is way too large as well. Big story = good for neverending webnovel with Patreons, bad for penniless and fickle writer like me. I am currently outlining a complete trilogy to another story in great detail. I want the story to end concisely, and I also want the chance to really spend a lot of time on the full outline to spot pacing problems, character issues, lost themes, and so on. I'll still share this story on RR. What I intend to do is finish book 1, flash-publish the whole thing here for a few weeks, then publish on the big Zon. Repeat for books 2 and 3. The upcoming story will be about crafting heroes. The backdrop is an isekai-like setting, where elves will summon humans to their world as heroes, but the whole hero crafting business is still in its infancy. The elven mage researchers are figuring out how to imbue heroes with power, while the heroes are trying to figure out how to use the powers that they gain. Humans are the best hero templates because they are blank and have no intrinsic magic. Or at least that what the elves thought. The human MC has his own secrets... There will be some similarities with litrpgs, but I would call it more a progression fantasy or gamelit story. For example, the stats are very low, at least initially. Say we have a stat called Str. Going from Str = 1 to Str = 2 is a huge deal. Also, going from Dex = 0 to Dex = 1 is an even bigger deal. I guess you could call it a "low-stat litrpg", haha. Also, the heroes won't be gaining stats simply by killing things or leveling up. You can't increase stats arbitrarily, either. There will be rules to how stats can increase, and how they work with each other. The elven mages will be figuring out these rules in order to craft stronger and stronger heroes. Some inspiration will be from cultivation magic systems, but there won't be overt cultivation, at least for now. A theme I really want to explore is the idea of interactions. That includes things like hero crafter vs hero, tactics vs strategy, skill synergies, racial interactions (dwarves, elves, etc), and son. Yeah, so hero crafting. I'm super excited about this project and venturing into publishing. If you want to check out the upcoming story, you can follow my RR author profile to see when it drops here. Finally... THANK YOU TO EVERYONE! I'm very sorry that SSA is stopping, but I hope at least some of you will find the next story at least as enjoyable, if not more. Thanks to all the readers who gave SSA a shot. Big hug or solid fistbump to all of you, whichever you prefer! I hope this message is not a downer but an upper, because I am psyched!! -purlcray -------------- BLURB: Talen, youngest Master of the Koroi, makes his way to the Empire's capital to salvage his clan's fate. But the bustling city has few opportunities for the traditionalist. For the old sword clans are fading. With the rise of alchemy, gold can purchase strength that ordinarily took years of training to cultivate. Sword artists, once rare and accomplished, are quickly growing in number, especially among the wealthy noble class. Even with such alchemy, though, no one has advanced to the rank of Grandmaster in countless years. Talen's true dream is to walk the path of a sword artist to the very end while fulfilling his clan duties. And then the Swordgeists return, fabled founders of all sword arts, gods who had touched the world long ago and vanished. These myths turned into reality warn of a coming threat. Alongside this warning, they issue an invitation to the Sword System Academy, a path to power beyond the mortal realm. But first, they will hold an entrance exam... Story notes:Sword System Academia blends elements of western and asian fantasy such as xianxia and litrpg. I took parts from different genres I enjoyed and twisted them into my own creation. There will be an explicit system, both of the litrpg kind and the hard(ish) magic kind, but it is embedded within an academic structure that will develop over the course of the story. This is my attempt to design a unique type of system, the System Academia.

Grimoire: Retake
"Reality is different than a story or a game." That's what my best friend used to say to the otaku me all the times and I myself knew full well that it's true. Well, that was until now... Why you ask? Let me ask you instead, what if you woke up one day, remembered your past life, then found out you are a harem member of a RPG game? The harem MC is childhood friend A and the main rival is my brother B. Hah! And that's just the beginning! You are mistaken if you think that's all. How about an amazing finishing touch of having found out later that reality does not follow the original storyline but might actually be the improved sequel version of the RPG? Hahaha, God, I'm laughing tears of despair....
