《There's a Beauty: Seer of Deception》The calm before the storm

"Ah!"
Suddenly, Yuri shrieks in surprise. Just then, when Dennis, now accompanied by Jean, has finally passed by Yuri, a foot wearing elegant black heels has tripped her on purpose.
"Oops!"
A woman in a tight pencil skirt, a white semi-buttoned blouse that reveals half of her cleavage, and a face caked with thick makeup, covers her mouth with the back of her hand snickering.
Ambrosia Chelsea Birch… The only name on earth that I don't want to know the owner's face.
Making a loud thud as she fell down the ground, Yuri grunted under her breath.
She had been busy working day and night and had not been able to sleep well for seven days.
Currently, she now lacks the energy to deal with a bitch.
"Ah! Miss Yuri, are you alright?!"
Dennis immediately crouched down to help Yuri stand up.
Staring at his hazel hair that stuck out of his red cap, Yuri remembered something important.
The flame helps the young moth… that would have been a great title for an aspiring novel…
Nonetheless, I must say, Dennis' existence is indeed a bit stereotypical. He was the only one besides Yuri's foster mother and father whom has made her feel acknowledged and appreciated. He never frowned and never really criticized the way Yuri looked... that is, not really in front of her.
Funny enough, the flame wasn't really helping the young moth; instead, the flame was just doing its job, and has been doing its job ever since the beginning.
Now that I think about it, it was quite a twist since Dennis seemed to be a philanthropist, but little did I know… Dennis was just a wolf in sheep's clothing… I mean, I only accidentally heard it back then but it actually came out from his own mouth, and his words... stabbed me hard in the back that it almost felt as if his words pierced through my spine then straight to my heart.

"What? You're asking for my thoughts about Yuri? For me, I think that--… Well… She never really spared me a glance back then. I mean, yeah, we're a bit close now but still… We… We aren't friends at all. To cut it short, she's just being petty and delusional. Plus, she's not even close to being beautiful! ...In my eyes, she's only a stuck up, ugly trash."
Remembering how those words came out of the mouth of the same man that is now helping her stand up to her feet almost felt somewhat comical.
Nowadays, you just can't trust someone and believe that they understand you.
A snake could be anywhere so beware if they ever bit you.
"I'm fine. Thank you for the help Dennis."
Patting off the dust from her pants, Yuri coldly looked at the direction of Chelsea.
"I almost forgot to warn you, Chelsea, your blush is too thick, your application of lipstick is uneven and how old are you? 10? I mean, not that I'm being mean but your eyebrows is pissing me off since they looked exactly like those birds that children drew of when they were in grade school."
Hearing Yuri's words, Chelsea marched her way towards Yuri with a furious look.
"You're just jealous because makeup can't even cover up your ugly ass face!"
Snorting, Yuri lowly chuckled with a disgusted look.
"Now, Now, Chelsea, you're starting to look like a clown. No. Wait. Sorry, that was an understatement since you're already the whole circus. I mean, can't you use your head for once? I may look like an ugly piece of shit because of this distinct cinnabar mark on my face but I'm still a human being and you? You don't even look like a human being with that amount of contour on your face; in fact, you looked exactly like an alien. Ok?"

At once, fueled with anger, Chelsea lunged towards Yuri with a loud shriek, "You will pay for this!"
Letting out a hearty laugh, Yuri stuck her tongue out at Chelsea.
"That is, if you catch me!"
Comfortably jogging as she laughed at Chelsea's foolishness, Yuri actively mocked Chelsea for wearing high heels since she now ran faster than Chelsea with the pair of red sneakers she wore.
"You piece of-! Ah!!"
Tripping on her own heels, Chelsea horribly slipped down the ground with a loud thud.
"F*ck you Yuri! Come back here!!"
Panting as she laughed at Chelsea's current state, Yuri held her middle finger up, saying "Karma is a b*tch!"
Laughing as she hastily ran in front of the elevator doors, Yuri pushed the up button as the empty elevator chute opened up and allowed her to conveniently hopped in. Turning back to face Chelsea's laughable state right now, Yuri waved at Chelsea as the latter screamed "Come back here or I'll tell you to the manager!!"
Do I look like I care? Haha.
Finally pushing the floor button as the elevator doors dramatically closed in front of her, Chelsea proceeds to scream as Yuri laughed at Chelsea's misery before finally disappearing from Chelsea's sight.
Now that the fun's all over, I should get going now…
The plan must proceed as it is.
There's no turning back now.

Risen
Note: Slight edits to early chapters (and removal of one chapter - previously chapter 2) have been made 2/2/21 The city, my city, had once been alive in a way that was hard to describe. Thriving, active, hopeful. Vibrant. But life, as I had come to learn, sometimes possesses only the most tenuous of grasps. Finally, in the end, it became my city - mine alone. I was, after all, the only one left. Worse, it was entirely my fault. There was red in my ledger that could never be wiped clean. Not while I still lived, anyway. This story follows Eran, a man who became the opposite of everything he had ever wanted to be; in a world where superpowers began to appear in a rare few, his lack of control over his own power relegated him to the role of a terrible villain - the Reaper, named so for the countless lives that he absorbed and made his own, each only furthering his deadly lack of control. Gone mad with guilt and isolation, he strove for a single heroic act - his own demise. Death was less permanent than he hoped. Centuries later, he woke to a changed world and in a body not his own. Unfortunately, his power came with him. Yet this time, things would be different. This time, he had a chance to bring it under control. He could never truly make up for the things he had done; he could never achieve redemption. That wouldn't stop him from trying to be a hero. Cover courtesy of the amazing Vitaly S Alexius, author of Romantically Apocalyptic. Go check him out!

The Experimental Dungeon
Having all your memories erased and be reborn as a baby without any knowledge, or giving the job of managing a Dungeon without being its Core – a very easy decision for everyone, right? Right? Right? “I really should have remembered from all those fanfics and dungeon stories that those ROBs always screw with their mortal playthings” growls Claudia as she checked her Status for the umpteenth time. “How dare that... that...that manipulative thing did this to me… And no matter what extra options he gifts me with, I will NOT use them to create a hentai dungeon or anything like that” This will not be the usual dungeon core-type story found around here, but the main difference will only be explained in chapter 4 by the Dungeon Pixie. Also – despite the warning please don’t expect any explicit scenes in this story. The warnings are there because mature themes will be mentioned (and not only because the Higher Power provided some special options), but the MC is dead set on evading those options as she sees them as traps. So there are no explicit descriptions planned at all. If that changes I will give extra warnings in the chapter title, but I plan on handling things other ways. Later chapters might go a bit farther than the simple mentions in chapter 2, but don’t expect much more. Status Update 04. April 22 Writing Buffer used up, as said before I'm switching to one chapter a week on fridays. The new cover is the second placeholder, but what I really want will have to be commissioned and take a while. At least it is better than the map-part from chapter 4 that was the first placeholder.

Veiled
Sixteen-year-old Desirae Cradle knows how to survive in the human world, but knowing and doing are two different things. Until her mother disappeared under questionable circumstances, Desirae lived as part of a magical community kept secret from humans for more than 4,000 years. But not all of Desirae's people live on Earth. Some live in the Otherworld, exiled there after an ancient war. They are known as the Faye and still seek a way back to Earth. With feelings of abandonment, and no other family among her kind, Desirae makes her way in the human world using the only skill she has-knowing how to cross between Earth and Otherworld. But when a crossing goes bad, Desirae has to do something she swore she never would - go back home. Determined to not only fix her mistake but to mend old friendships, Desirae returns to the community she abandoned. But the Faye are after more than she thought. With lingering questions about what really happened to her mother and the discovery that her friends have changed even more than she has, Desirae finds that stopping the Faye and regaining her friend's trust might not be as easy as she hoped. This is a completed work, approx 75,000 words. I’m just editing chapter by chapter and posting as I finish them.
