《The Dark Star Emperors》Chapter 48: Anne's New Life
Advertisement
Anne went to school the next day without seeing Nina who was too depressed to go to school that day.
Anne changed her outfit to reflect her new way of looking at life. She wore a red and black hoodie. She dyed her hair with white streaks. Anne didn't care at all about how others saw her. She didn't wear a smile. The only way she would smile is by feeling the same feeling she felt after winning that fight with Cherry.
The school board wasn't thrilled with how Anne looked, but she didn't care and the school could do nothing about it.
When school ended, she went to her martial arts club.
"Are you sure you're up for it? You can still take a few days off," the instructor asked out of concern.
Anne shook her head.
"No. I'm good," she said without feeling any emotion.
She changed into her new karate gi. With the black coin she got, she spent it on getting a new karate outfit. It was black with outlining.
Before their exercises, the instructor yelled his chant. "Honor before victory!"
Everybody except for Anne repeated those words. "Honor before victory!"
When they were finished with their exercises, they went onto their sparring.
Anne chose Ben to spar with, and he had no objections.
When they fought, Ben tried to grapple Anne, but without a shred of remorse, she grabbed onto Ben's arm and twisted it. He screamed in pain right before Anne kicked Ben in the gut onto the ground. A smile was plain for all to see. She enjoyed the screams coming off of her opponent. It signified her victory over him. Ben grabbed onto his own arm in pain and gritted his teeth. The other students froze and watched as he writhed in pain.

Anne walked over to him. They all expected her to apologize and give him her hand to lift him up, but instead Anne kicked him as he was down. All with a smile.
"Anne! Stop!" the instructor yelled as he grabbed Anne's arm and pulled her back.
Her smile faded as she looked at the instructor.
The instructor knelt down to look at Ben's injuries. His arm was broken and he needed to go to the hospital.
Anne began to walk away. She picked up her bag as the instructor began to apply ice to Ben's arm.
"Anne! Where do you think you're going!?" the instructor yelled angrily.
Anne looked back with cold eyes. She gave no reply before looking at the entrance.
"I saw what you did! You-!" the instructor began to yell, but Anne interrupted.
"Doesn't matter. You have nothing left to teach me. And you won't be seeing me here anymore," she replied with a cold voice as she left the dojo without looking back.
She was no longer content with being there. They were all so weak. Each one of them didn't understand the need to win. All they cared about was having an honorable fight. But she wouldn't accept that. Not anymore. Honor was for the weak. The only thing that mattered was victory. And she left without any feeling of guilt.

Demons Don't Lie
Algier, average human and recent convict, has committed the gravest sin of all: demon slaying. His fate? To participate in the Culling, a battle-royale style tournament that’s televised live to the world, where all the worst criminals go to die. As with all tournaments, a prize is on the line. If Algier survives, he can have any wish granted by the Marquises, the new rulers of Earth following the demons’ invasion. However, there’s little hope for survival in a tournament designed to have demons do the work of the executioner, especially for a human. Demons are stronger, faster, wiser, and more talented than the average human, and, despite his crime, Algier is no demon hunter. Mentally defeated before the tournament even begins, Algier is torn between becoming another demon’s points and fighting on in his dead mother’s legacy. But should he choose to fight, there is one advantage that Algier has that can tip the odds in his favour: Demons don’t lie, but humans can. How to read this story Demons Don't Lie is written from the perspective of an unreliable (lying) narrator. There are many inconsistencies within the story which are placed there intentionally. It's up to the reader to decide what is the truth and what is the lie. Promotion Full quality cover image

Generic Zombie survival Wuxia Cliche story
Same old same old. Zombies attack. Zombies Evolve. Humans evolve. Humans gain superpowers. No deep plot, no plot planned out at all actually. Writing it as I go and because I'm a sad boi trying to use stories as a form of escapism. Not going to proofread, not going to check for grammar or anything. Will definitely read like a machine-translated Chinese amateur web novel. Have a nice day. (The cover is from one punch man, no this is not a fanfic) (I don't actually plan/think anything in this will be too gory or "traumatizing" but since its a zombie survival story I thought I might as well add it, plus the fact that the MC does some pretty messed up stuff. He's the stereotype Wuxia villain so to speak, expect competently and not dumbed down to make the hero look smart.) I will add warnings in author notes before chapter starts if anything particularly "gory" or trigger events happen.

After All
This is not my story. My story was of a world I forged by my raw will, and of you, my children, forged of my dreams. That story has long since ended. Our world was not alone. Another deity came from beyond my sight, and despite our resistance rent our world asunder. In the end, all was lost and you were gone. That I survived your passing is a testament to the cruelty of existence; I cannot forgive existence for the monstrous crime of making me go on without you. This is the story of a new world, forged by the hands of fools. That it is made from the bones of that which I most hated will bring this place no absolution. In the fullness of time, I will seize the reins of this new narrative, and I shall end it. You are lost to me, my children. I will make a funeral pyre of all reality for you, and be with you in oblivion after all. --- DocSumac here. This is a story that has been rattling around in my head for years. It's not complete, but I'm not going to let it haunt me anymore. I'm uploading what is ready, and I'll add more as I can. --- Addendum May 20, 2020: I've added the Sex tag. Not because of actual smut, but becuase of what will probably devolve into an ongoing parade of dick jokes. No point denying my nature.
