《The Blood Wolf》Formal Or Informal
Advertisement
I watched Netflix and got a little carried away with a Korean movie. It was so interesting. It was mainly about golf. A girl named Sung Misoo, who was very poor, had a passion for golf. She practiced every day and became a pro golfer despite all the hardship and struggles she faced.
She fell in love with her coach and his girlfriend didn't like Misoo. His girlfriend devised a plan to rid of Misoo by creating an opportunity for her to go to the States. John Lee, her coach found out about her plans and he went to get Misoo and stop her from leaving.
They met in an accident on the way back and John disappeared. But, in the end, he still chose his girlfriend. I don't like the way it ended but at least the writer expressed the reality of it.
Holy cow! All this reminiscing made me even later than I already was.
I found my way to the kitchen and then entered the dining room. When I did, I was greeted with about ten or twelve people. They were all dressed in suits and Ma in a very nice evening dress.
I'm underdressed for the occasion!!!
The room went silent.
"Please have a seat," said Devon. He was sitting at the head of the table and at the other end was Ma. He didn't seem to mind. I looked around and instantly felt embarrassed. I was only wearing sweatpants and a T-shirt. I got so many stares.
I wished the earth would just open up and swallow me whole.
Surprisingly, it became noisy again. People were chattering and laughing away. But only this time; I was the new topic of discussion. From across where I was sitting, was Scott and beside him was Stephan. Everyone kept mumbling about my choice of attire. Some boys who were on the other side of the table were whispering cruel things about me.

"Couldn't she make more of an effort?" the one at the end wearing a grey suit asked the rest.
"Maybe she's not used to this kind of thing." the one beside him implied.
"Poor thing," another said at the opposite end as the group chuckled together. Sitting beside me was a slim and lean older guy. I could see he previously shaved his stubble. He was dark skinned like the majority of these people except a few, but he didn't whisper to anyone. He just sat there, rigid. He was eyeing me as if I was out of place. I hardly looked at him though.
I eyed Scott from across the room. He was wearing a devil's smile. He was in a black suit. Why did he tell me it was informal? How could he have done this to me? I never did anything to him. I was going to try my best to make it through dinner for Ma and Devon.
I really didn't want to upset Devon by leaving like this. Even if I changed, I doubt I'd have enough courage to get back down here.
"So Chyenne, what inspired you to grace us in that outfit tonight?" everyone was silent. I knew he wanted to rile me up.
I scanned the room for Ma with a desperate look in my eyes but she was gone. Ma wasn't here to help me so it was time I pulled up my big girl socks. I took a deep breath and answered his question confidently.
I was gonna play it cool.
"I'm making a fashion statement."
"I'm curious about the statement that you want to send. Are you trying to say, I don't know to dress?" he asked, patronizing me. The guys laughed at his comeback. If only they could choke on it.

"Not at all. What I'm actually trying to say is, wear what makes you comfortable and be yourself. Clothes don't define a character." I smiled, feeling as if I've said something important.
"You were invited to dinner. Make an effort. But then again, you pulled it off. It suits someone of your calibre." He folded his arms and now everyone was in full on laughing mode. His British accent was thick with the pleasure of mocking my appearance.
A sudden wave of anger flushed through me and I stood up and banged the table. The laughing ceased.
"Listen to me, you beady green-eyed bug; you don't have the right to judge me. I've been here for only one damn day and you've shown me what kind of douchebag you are." I leaned forward facing the bastard. The tears were slowly welling up in my eyes.
"Anyone who is related to you must be disgusted to admit it. You told me that this engagement wasn't formal. I was happy I was invited but not anymore. I am repulsed for being your twin and being called your sister. What did I ever do to you? Huh?" I barked at him and as I did tears spilled from my eyes like a flooding river. The look on his face was evidence that he was shocked. His eyes widened at my sudden outburst fueled by anger. I felt better.
"I g-give my sincerest apologies for ruining such a wonderful night. Obviously, my presence is n-not needed so please enjoy your dinner. Goodnight." I stuttered unable to control my shoulder-racking sobs.

The fallen (?) hero and Aži Dahāka's soul fragment
I have to apologize.A certain real life problem that I thought I got rid of has caught up to me once again.I tried to continue writing, but my mind was not in the right track to do so and thus, as some people had said, the quality of the latest 2 chapters had turned from the usual "bad" to "worst". So, I reluctantly have to say that I will be away until I can sort things out.I can't say when, but I do intend to return to writing. I might lurk around to read other people's works though. I will be turning my attention to stories with "tragedy" and "despair". The five of us were summoned to this world from our clubroom two years ago to be made as heroes.Shouldn't forceful summoning like that be counted as kidnapping?Well, we chose to go with the heroes route.After harsh training and battles, not to mention all the killings, we finally defeated the demon lord.However, all those achievements literally became nothing, it wasn't just forgotten, it was erased to be totally nothing as even the written records were somehow being disposed of. I was too naive. Who would have thought that the side we have been fighting alongside with, the side we were fighting for, was the one to bring our demise?After I had to see everyone else turn into nothingness, somehow... I alone survived. Note: I will attempt to fix the grammar problem with the help of lieutenant colonel fletterman. This may delay the release of future chapter. Chapter 1 is fixed. Chapter 2 is fixed.

Five veteran players of the old-fashioned but outdated VRMMO game, Orge's Bone, meet in the game for one last time before leaving forever. As real life friends, they were torn apart by certain matters, and now decided to say goodbye in the way they know best; a free for all battle royale. However, little do they know that fate has a twist to spin. As they fight it out in a folorn map, they stumble upon a secret teleport gate. Out of curioisity, they all enter it. They find a world more graphicly advanced than the current number one game, and NPCs that really don't act like they should. The game settings are similar to Orge's Bone; there are no levels, only physical strenght gains, which is gained by killing monsters and completing quests. They treat the hidden world as their greenhouse– a place to retreat when the real world treats them unfairly. But after a while, they discover no everything is as it seems– that the hidden world is far more dangerous. Michael is a cultivator whose goal in life is to change the tragic martial world, where killing is like breathing, into a land of peace. It will center a lot around how he'll change the perspectives of those around him, and how he tries to draft more cultivators to his cause, starting with the toughest nut to crack, the ruthless, bloodthirsty and easily-triggered Rector. Last but not least, with how he is met by the greatest tragedy and is forced to make the hardest choice.
