《The Deal of Tyler Mouret》-Development and Disgrace- Chapter 18*
Advertisement
I took a Bath and asked Gertrude to bring the flower to the Laboratory that my mother used to make bath salts and some other things with beast parts. I didn't take long to arrive, it was an aggregated room to the Library, it wasn't huge, it was normal in comparison to the latter when I was more little I always thought it was a room full of animal parts in chains and full of bloodied utensils, but to my surprise, it was a clean and ordinated place with samples of plants in jars and stones with strange properties that I have never seen, but never a flower, my mother taught me with Gertrude to read, write and science, hygiene and of course etiquette, and many more, but her was always interested in studying science in a deeper level, the books don't have new information and almost everything is a theory, so it was impossible, I didn't get it, I always thought to make potions or spells you needed some words and runes and obviously materials, what surprised me was she used it to make bath salts and soaps, and never for something weird, but she knew how to use magic perfectly, she thaught me that too and its uses when you merge it with energy or theories of some sciences.
— Well, I guess is time to see what you hide little flower —I took the flower out of the container, the sap of the plant merged with the blood of Tyler maintaining it fresh in some way, I took an injector to extract a little of the sap and put it in a test tube, I put a weak acid in the test tube and it took an amber color, I had to look in some books of Biology, Chemistry, and magic Energy to know what this meant.

— I don't know how those stupid alchemists and Sorcerers do to mix these things without a guide, these humans always complicating things with all this wordiness in their books, never getting to the point.
I was studying for hours and found the connection or better said what the liquid could be if possible it could be used as a catalyst for a certain article and it was more than compatible, It had an exorbitant amount of energy, the sap of the flower had a certain property that increases the energy and stabilizes it.
— It can't be true... Tyler you just gave me what some Demons would kill to have, without the need to become entrapped in a human host or souls, the way to go to the Earth without sacrifice, the only problem is that I still need more materials to make the core for the liquid energy, and more blood to have it completely stabilized, unfortunately, Gertrude and the others already cleaned the blood, Agh, it doesn't matter I can get more blood later. I need a break, maybe go to the city and eat something from Fred. I put on something more discrete and was on my way to the exit when I found someone I didn't expect.
— Hello Darling ¿What are you wearing?
— D-Dad you arrived, I didn't expect you to arrive so early.
— Well, I wanted to give you a surprise and why would I need to notify when I get home —He laughed after that.
— ¿Won't you give your dad a hug? you may be near 18 years now, but that doesn't imply you shouldn't do what I demand as your father ¿Mmmm?— he says while opening his arms.
— Right, glad to see you Dad —I hugged him not before rolling my eyes.

— By the way, I have something for you —He puts his hand in a Bag of greed.
— Is one of Fred apple pies, the ones your mother and you liked so much, but I brought for myself a chocolate cake, I was even thinking of lending Fred a Recipe book of pastries from the Library ¿What do you think? —It is like he read my mind.
— That would be great, more sweets to taste.
— It's good you think that way, why don't we go eat this in the balcony, ¿Where is Gertrude by the way?.
— Remember that she only appears when you call her.
— Oh, right, ¡Gertrude! — She appeared from the shadows in the same way as before, I fucking hate that.
— Hi Gertrude, ¿how did my little Lady behave?.
— Are you seriously going to ask her that... Hmph why I ask.
— It's a pleasure seeing you again M'Lord, Your Daughter behaves correctly as always.
— Good to hear, Mmmm... There is a light scent of blood in the Mansion — Shit, SHIT, SHIT, I forgot Father can do that, He is a Hunter by trade and can track any beast if he is proposed to it, That is how he sometimes Brought materials for Mother and the Dinner, He is a mix between a Beast Kin and a Heretic Demonkin, He got the features from my Grandmother, but the abilities and power of my Grandfather.
— Ah, that was my fault, M'Lord, we asked for a hunter to bring the dinner, and he brought some fresh poultry, but it was dripping some blood on the floor when he brought it back, I ask for your apologies —You just saved us from an interrogatory this time Gertrude, Well done.
— Oh, don't worry about it, Sometimes I miss the scent of blood when I Hunt, but I would like if you prepared us a table in the balcony, so we can eat there.
— Right away Sir.
— I hope you didn't get bored these days.
— Eh, no, it was entertaining I think. —We reached the Balcony and the Table was ready, we could see the city from here and the Walls surrounding it.
— Ok, Darling, let's eat —There was something weird today, My father always talked when eating, even if it was to complain about some moron doing bad his job, but today, he was silent, this gives me a bad feeling, he even has that serious look of his.
— Dad, ¿is there something wrong?
— Actually I need to tell you something about your Mother.

Entangled Fates Book 1 - Quantum Beginnings
“By far, the greatest danger of Artificial Intelligence is that people conclude too early that they understand it.” —Eliezer Yudkowsky Hey all, we're moving over to book 2. This content is in a state of transition. The book is now availble on Amazon (includes extra chapters): https://www.royalroad.com/amazon/B07W1534R8 Artificial intelligence was nearly mankind’s last invention. AI took off like a rocket, then when it racked up an impressive death toll, it crashed before it could blossom and took most high-tech industries with it. Resistance and fears became deep-set. Two decades after the infamous Rev. 4.6 incidents, humanity hasn’t quit dreaming of the wealth and power that could be at their fingertips. A new generation of mega-corporations rose from the ashes. When one melds a quantum computer to a barely functional mental patient as a PR move, there are those who seek to profit, those who want to destroy it, and Alex. Alex Sage is a typical college student trying to keep up his grades and maybe find a meaningful connection with the fairer sex. Then, an automated semi crashes into his home, killing his family and turning his head into a pin cushion in the process. Alex awakens to find most of his memories gone and an illegal AI hidden in his brain implant. Now the pet project of a tech billionaire and heavily in debt, Alex struggles to stay valuable enough to be kept online. Still grappling with the repercussions of his injuries, and threats from a dangerous anti-augmentation political movement, there are no easy answers and threats loom around every corner. Alex must use whatever resources he can to escape from under the thumb of a ruthless corporation, while keeping those he comes to love safe. Chapters will stay up on RRL until Aug 10. It'll go up on Kindle Unlimited after that. How do you get those extra chapters I didn't have planned for RR? If you want them, they'll be in the published book. Book 2 will still make sense without them - I made sure of that. But... isn't $3 a lot for extra chapters? Think of it as tipping me for a good job and you'd also be getting my eternal thanks. If you enjoyed it so much that the idea of missing out a few chapters haunts you, I did my job as an author and made an engaging story. What's in those extra chapters? Resolving a few issues, set up for the cybernetic revolution, a rather intense sex scene with a new partner, revelations of who's really pulling strings, and a bit of set up for book 2. Complaints that people missed out on it when it was published here won't help (sorry!). I posted this for the folks who helped me shape the book, which is you all! (Again, yay!) But... Why! Why not keep it all on RR forever? My editor likes being paid for one. For two, I'd like the ability to get broader readership. If I break even on editor costs, I'll be incredibly happy. What about book 2? Drafts for Book 2 will go up around Sept 10. My draft of Book 2 is done, and it will be handed to the editor once Book 1 is published. Feedback has been even more positive. Beta readers devoured it and wanted more. I'll add a link to Book 2 once it's up on RR. I'm more or less, using you all for Beta Readers, so you get it before it's "canon" and edited. I invite active and meaningful feedback during this process. In return, you get early access to chapters. That does mean that the book content or plot might be adjusted before it gets published as I refine it. Sex Y/N? Yes. I heard the feedback, 90% wanted it explicit. You all will get the "full" experience. Will I dump all of book 2 here? Honestly, I'm not sure yet. At a minimum, it'll be up to the 75% mark as we collect feedback, much like what I did with book 1. It really depends on how good the feedback is and how nice people are. Lots of support + meaningful feedback to make it better = higher likelihood you get all the book. Will be it up here indefinitely? No, it'll probably go up on KU at some point, but I'll make sure there's enough time for a large readership to grab it here. Then we move to book 3 which already is around 60K words already. What about other adventures in the same universe/characters? Yep. Absolutely. Nothing ready to share yet though. I plan to keep those side chapters and more slice of life stories as RR exclusive. Since I'm carving this off in book-sized segments, I'll have to figure out where those disconnected story arcs belong. I'm open to suggestions.

The Final Test
Earth was overtaken by the Calumnia ten years ago and if it weren't for the alien Occisio race who saved the remnants of humanity, Indi's race would have gone extinct. Now, at the age of sixteen, Indi and the other surviving children are about to complete their training and return to Earth to kill the monster that destroyed their world and killed their parents. However, the children on the Occisio's spaceship have been dismissed one by one in training tests and only a few of them remain. Will Indi prove himself skilled enough to become a soldier? Or will he fail humanity as his parents did? This short story (in 13 parts) is a love letter to fans of Ender's Game and Maze Runner. (I may eventually turn this into a novel but for now, I hope you enjoy this 10,000 word story about hope and overcoming one's weakness.) [This story will appear on other websites as well, such as Wattpad and Royal Road.]

A BEND IN TIME
Before there ever was a boy that ever lived in a cupboard on Four Privet Drive, there was a similar boy in a far worse home that lived on Spinner’s End. We all know the tale of that abused boy who grew up to become a bitter spy. But not all tales end the same for in the many parallel worlds that exist in the universe there are far better endings, and equally as many worse ones. This is a tale of one such condemned universe that for better or for worse choose to change its own fate. (All rights to the Harry Potter world and characters belong solely to J. K. Rowling. However, I do claim creative fanfiction rights. Please do not post my fanfiction elsewhere without my express permission.) (Please note only first few chapters will be posted on this site the rest and future chapters are hosted at, https://www.webnovel.com/book/14576125306898605/A-Bend-in-Time)
