[Zoth Manor]
As the viscount family met with the Earl family in their living quarters, both of them immediately took a sit
Both Rebecca and Melfina are beside the Louche family and acted as guards while the Zoth family brought their best knights as guards
Meanwhile outside the manor Kaido was strolling at the garden unhindered and seemingly no one even noticed him moving around
"Looks like their defences are quite lacking.... Well they do have a meeting to attend so i understand if they focused their forces there" he thought
As he strolled around while avoiding being noticed by the personnel's he noticed a movements along the trees
As he looks around he landed his gaze at the tree hat stretches out its branch to the window of the manor and later saw two shadows going inside the manor
"So thats how they want to play!" He grinned
Immediately Kaido told both Rebecca and Melfina the current situation so even if they are a bit tensed they will be ready

As they sits they begun they're talk
"Reinbach! U suppose the reason for this meeting is because you finally agreed to let my son take your daughter correct?" Asks Rundel the Earl
"Hehehe! Looks like your father is about to approve of my courtesy to you my little chick!" Said Carl the Earl's son

Contrary to this Lilith replied calmly
"I'm sorry to say this but I have no plans to marry you! I'm not even find of you" said Lilith
"How can you say that? When the time comes I'll make you mine" replied Carl
"Hoh!? Don't you have girls waiting for you already?" Taunted Lilith
"Those brothel girls? Do you know why they like me? Do you wanna know? Don't worry I'll make you feel the pleasure you haven't felt yet when were married" said Carl as he picks his lips while staring at Lilith's body
Seeing this Lilith started to back off and begun to feel disgusted then suddenly Eli intervened
"I'm sorry to say this but we're not here for the marriage!" Said Eli
"Oh yeah! I almost forgot to notice you there Eli! Do you feel well?" Taunted Charl the Earl's wife
Hearing this Eli grimaced the taste of bitterness to herself
"Well thank you for that absolutely refreshing beverage that you guys have me!" Said Eli with a creepy smile
Hearing this the Earl family became silent and looked at Eli
"Eli-san it's not good to point your fingers to others" said Rundel
With this words Reinbach started to backed his wife's claims
"We're here to talk about the poison Rundel-dono!" Said Reinbach
"What do you mean?" Asks Rundel
"I'm saying! That why did you tried to poison my wife?" Said Reinbach while glaring at Rundel
As he glared a vein popped out on Rundel's head
"Lies! I never did such thing! And didn't your maid poison your wife not me?" Denied Rundel
Before this meeting Kaido said to Reinbach that the Earl will try to defend himself if he accuses him so don't try to tell him about the maid and tell him about the fake witness so that he wouldn't silence the girl and her relatives

When he asks if that were possible he just replied with "humans are prideful creatures they'll try to cover up anything even resorting to killing"
So he replied
"Don't get me mistaken! There was someone who witness the exchange of poison from you to the maid" lied Reinbach
As he said this Rundel's mind went blank as he thought that someone saw them exchange the transactions
With this Carl slammed his hand to the table
"impudent being! You dare accuse us of false charges? Do you know where you are?" He shouted
With this Lilith also retaliated
"You don't have a say about this! So stay out!" Said Lilith angrily
As this continues Rundel ordered his son
"Stand down Carl! Your being rude"
While Eli calmed down Lilith
"I'm sorry to say this but you don't have proof that we did anything to your wife Reinbach so what you just said means like you just thrown a dirt right at our face" stated Rundel
"Oh we do have evidence and proof! You don't need to worry about that" said Reinbach calmly
Hearing Reinbach's words Rundel gave a sigh and signaled the guards to lock the room
"Looks like this won't end well for you Reinbach!"
As he said this two shadows appeared at both sides of the viscount family and aimed for their throat but suddenly both rebecca and Melfina reacted perfectly and was able to save them on time
"Assasins! Rundel you bastard!" Cursed Reinbach
"Don't worry Reinbach! I'll take care of your wife and daughter and also your business so please die!" He said
When he said this Carl also said something to Lilith
"Just give it up Lilith! You'll never escape me!"
"I better die than marry a disgusting man like you" stated Lilith
"I'm so sorry for this Eli but even if you recovered please die" said Charl
With this Eli just stared at her
At this moment a third shadow appeared beside Rundel and threw knives at Rebecca and Melfina stabbing them at their shoulder
As they kneeled the viscount family tried to support them and glared back at the assasins and Rundel
"Oh don't be like that! It's just a scratch compared to an actual pain" stated Rundel
At this moment a voice came heard outside
"I wonder about that!"
As that words resounded the door threw open and Kaido was standing there with hands in his pocket and grinning at him

The Last Woman on Earth: A Military Sci-fi Intrigue
A disillusioned military officer and the self-proclaimed ‘last woman on Earth’ embark on a journey to uncover the truth behind a world without women. Second Lieutenant Alexei Vronsky is clinging to his sanity after his comrade was killed in a prolonged siege, but the time for self-loathing and wall punching is over. He finds an intruder in his room, who claims to be a woman—a mythical creature only existed in ancient texts. Against his expectation, she has no wings attached to her back, no laser guns on her shoulders, and not the slightest idea about the endless war between the Republic of Moskva and its vassal states. Suspecting she’s a government experiment, Alexei determines to find answers to the impossible existence of women. However, the deeper he digs into the dark, the further he realizes there’s more to the eternal war than he’s allowed to know. And the sooner he can stop the cycle of needless deaths the better, before he's shut down. Permanently. [Apart from being a war novel, this story is also a progression fantasy. The MC will get stronger, acquire more special abilities and fighting gears. They come later in the story, though.]

8 178Force Majeure: A web novel
In the Qursan Empire, the grey walls of the city press down on its subjects. It is a highly divided society which is based on the magical strength of its citizens. While the most powerful are trained as Mages, the majority of citizens use their limited skills with essence to power the city in their assigned jobs. Jano is pretty much the lowest of the low in the Qursan Empire. A Class Ten citizen forced into transitory work after having his power restricted. When he gets the opportunity to change all of that, he takes it with both hands. Please note this is an edited version of my story ‘city of captives’. It follows a similar structure but I’ve ironed out some of the kinks. If you read that version, much of this will be similar though there are some differences. This is a slow burning progression fantasy. Please expect at least two chapters per week. I love writing this story but I do have unfortunate things to deal with like work and life outside of writing. I may be able to write and edit more than that, but it will never be less!
