《The Golden Throne》A shadow in the dark
Advertisement
“Relax, Sir Nicholas. Who do you think I am? My father is the king. I already spoke to him in advance and sent him the earnings report of the merchant permits and taxes. We earnt a lot there, and we got the city permit a week ago. I wanted to announce it when I leave two weeks later. I have already prepared all the upcoming projects, and the details.”
Liu Feng went to the study and brought back a huge stack of papers.
“Just these alone will take you a year to complete. When I get a summer break again, I will take a look at the town, nay, city’s progression then. For now, focus on the current projects. I hope that they will all be done by the time I leave.”
Liu Feng left Nicholas with the papers and a wide open mouth. He muttered, “Impossible, how did he do so much when he was within my watch? Is he a demon?”
Liu Feng went to his room to rest, when a shadow figure came out of the darkness.
“I wonder why his highness has revealed all his cards to Sir Nicholas? What if he isn’t trustable?”
“And are you trustable? The only one I actually trust is my father, and my mother. All of you, I don’t trust. Nicholas is not clever enough to use any of what I gave him for gain. Only I can do it again. As for you, I told you to stay out of my room. Just because my father sent you doesn’t mean you can just act arrogantly and do whatever you want to do. By the way, send this letter to my father as well. Leave me.”
Liu Feng spoke coldly to the mysterious man. The shadow snorted and left, leaving Liu Feng alone. Then, Lucas appeared, “Are you sure boy? Giving a letter to him? You still have not confirmed whether he works for your father or not. Just because he was in the castle at the time you left does not mean he works for your father. It is too dangerous playing like this.”

“Since when did you care that much about me?”, Liu Feng smiled.
Lucas’s figure distorted and he refuted, “What do you mean I care about you? I just don’t want to see a promising talent die off. Who will take me outside after that? No one would believe me even if I tell them that my soul is in a book. They would just yell ghost and run away.”
“Well you do have a point there. Don’t worry, I took several precautions. Only my father can open that letter,or it will self-destruct.”
Liu Feng sat on the bed and started meditating.
“Well, you finally remembered to train! I thought that you gave up on magic because of the stupid city that you built. But, it's not like you can break through the bottleneck of the fifth order. You will need to comprehend it yourself, and to do that you must experience proper combat. No one in that stupid school will be able to help you in that. You have to go deep in the forest and battle magic beasts. It won’t be easy. And, you are being monitored constantly. You have to find a way to break free from all these constraints.”
Liu Feng opened his eyes. “Don’t worry Lucas, the city is like my pet project. I have bigger, much bigger plans for the future. For now, I will just train normally. After school starts, there will be an excursion. I will ‘get lost’, and we will see what to do then. For now, let me concentrate on my city and school. My father has high expectations for me, and it has always been my dream to have my own city, but this is far from being my dream city. You will also benefit from this. Imagine how much talent you can train when you have your own mage tower.”

“Yeah, I was about to ask you about that too… When will I get my mage tower? I have been waiting for a while now.”

8 117NEET Re:Quest High School
What would happen to NEET’s like Sora, one of the biggest shut-ins to be seen in the history of mankind if he would be forced to enroll back into a strict iron ruled High School? Sora’s wits and superior intellect has brought him thus far in life peacefully, only to be ruthlessly torn apart and tested against rich and hitherto sheltered high-class girls, which also by all means and cost want nothing to do with the newly enrolled NEET’s which are seen as trespassers on an all-girls High School. How many NEET’s will be able to complete the ultimate questlines awaiting them, with the biggest one lying in wait in which Sora yet had to face, a three year timeline graduation quest in order to return to his tranquil days of gaming solitude.
8 346AK - The Alchemy Kingdom
Karl always wanted to be a Mage. He was born in the Serion Kingdom, a fully pledged magic Kingdom. Seems like a perfect match, right? Unfortunately, no. He's just a commoner, working endlessly to maintaining the lifestyle of Mages. On his 15th birthday, his last chance to escape from a miserable life was destroyed when he was deemed to have no magic potential. For thousands of Serion's citizens that would be the end of their dreams. But how could this story be any fun, ending like that? Follow Karl and his friends while they tried to fight against the Kingdom's oppression. Will the system bend them to submission or will they break the chains of destiny? Spoiler alert: After thousands of years, an ancient Magic system will be reborn in the small Caiset village. What should you expect? - Kingdom Building: For sure! The heavy lifting will come later, I promise! Foundation is important, please be patient; - Epic battles: A Kingdom is not built without war and conflict. Who doesn't like good fights? Let's bring some excitement to this novel!; - Multiple leading characters: Karl convinced them to get on the bus, but this is a very long trip and everyone will need to drive a little; - Scientific Magic System: Especially Alchemy! I'm in no way trying to take the fantasy out of Magic. I just feel like trying to do something more logical. I'll probably stumble on a fine line, but I’m counting on you to keep me on track!; - World Building: I’m using some basic concepts from traditional Fantasy Worlds and trying to add some nice touches to make it unique; - Fun?: I'll try to insert some humor into the story, but that’s an experience we will go through together. Other points I find important: Alchemy is mostly crafting magic tools, but it will go a little further down the road. Even if you don't like crafting, weapon enhancing and whatnot, don’t give up on the novel. You might be surprised about Alchemy's reach later. Also, other types of Magic will play an important role here, just not the leading role. ......... Check out my two spin-off novels, Merchant Queen and Harbinger of Death! Both are independent novels, but with the same world setting... Maybe some crossover later... Either way, you can check them to get additional information on worldbuilding and hidden plots... Please leave a comment! If you want to help me more, support me on Patreon. I'm always trying to come up with new ways for you to participate in this journey. New Chapters on Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday!
