“Are you alright, your highness? Is there an intruder here?” a guard stepped forward, sword unsheathed.
Liu Feng looked at the old man. The guards had completely ignored him. Clearly he was unable to see the old man. Liu Feng thought about it and sighed,
“There was a mysterious black robed man who went that way, leading the guards back to the library.”
“The old man looked at Liu Feng laughing,
“Why didn’t you tell them that I was there? You even lead them somewhere else.”
“If I tell anyone that I saw a ghost they’ll think that I’m crazy. Who’s going to believe me? And if I tell them it’s nothing, who’ll believe me? I just screamed! You knocked over a few books in the library anyways. They will think that the intruder did that. After a few hours they’ll think he left.”
“Wow! You thought about all this in just five seconds? Are you really five years old?”
The old man walked around carefully scrutinizing Liu Feng.
“For some reason I can’t see your soul. It’s masked by some black smoke. That's unusual.”
“Who are you? I asked you before, and now I’ll ask you again. Who are you? What do you want? How did you get into that book? Why do you look like that?”Liu Feng panted, asking question after question. His mind was in disarray. All logic just wasn’t applicable anymore.
“Calm down boy. I am Lucas Winfrey, a Class 8 wizard from the kingdom of Salem. You probably don't know about it. I couldn’t find any record of it in your library. I wanted to go out but I couldn’t go more than ten metres from the book. As for the book… I can’t explain it. I just wanted to go out, so I asked you.”

“And what about the way you look…”
“Very persistent. This is my soul state. My body was destroyed in an experiment… I think. And then this book suddenly devoured me. Careful, it's a mystery even to me. Guard it carefully.”
“Fine. But what should I do with you? I am just a child, and I am busy everyday. Wait a minute. Wait, you are an 8th Circle Wizard?”
“What’s a circle boy? We classified by classes. I really have to see how much the world has changed.”
“If you are very powerful then you can teach me how to use magic. I really want to learn, but my teacher only teaches me theory. He said that the entire month I have to learn the basics of Khair.”
“What’s wrong with that? It is normal even for a year to be dedicated to learning the Language of spirits. You are too ambitious.”
“But I already finished the elementary and intermediate books on my own.”
“What!”
Lucas’s eyes popped out.
“You completed the intermediate Khair Books at the age of five. Wait, it must be a downgrade of the language. Maybe the knowledge passed on has degraded. Let me take a look at the books boy.”
“Here. And stop calling me a boy. I have a name.”
“Whatever. Let me just take a look. Here turn this page for me. I am still a soul and turning pages is too much a burden.”

The Hopeful Project
A pair of twins stumble their way into the world of blood magic, lizard people, and cultivation powered mecha-armor. And by stumble, I mean one of them falls on their face while the other laughs. [Writathon Participant] People read this far? What are you doing down here? Escape! The chapter buttons are over there, stop reading this. No? Fine. This book is an excuse to put a world I spent around 3-4 months of my life building over the pandemic into writing. I was planning on doing the writathon last year, but somehow managed to confuse October and November. Dont laugh, I'm already ashamed enough. This book is about a pair of twins, doing twin things: calling each other names, going to school, learning how to use their blood to become unstoppable, juggernaut, killing machines... You know, twin stuff. It's like if someone stuffed a school arc inside of a tournament arc inside of a war arc. A good time, basically. I hope you enjoy it.

8 98The BLOODLANDS
The story follows a young lord in which a middle-aged man reincarnated into the body and gets a second chance at using the knowledge he learns from reading in his past life. No longer bound to the world of his library and university but in a world in which if he failed not only his death but the death of others are in his hands. This concept of the book came about from having two mild heart attacks and the regrets of not being more active in my younger life. Note: The cover of the book is from a painting of Richard the Lionheart at the Battle of Arsuf (1191) during the Third Crusade where he defeated Saladin. Painting by Gustave Doré (19th century).
