《Revival Factory & Other Novellas》Eureka Feminine (Ch.9)
Advertisement
Ten minutes after Keaton 's departure, an old thin man with long beard and white hair entered inside the interrogation vault. He looked like he was hungry for a couple of years and never had combed his hair. The old man was dressed in black shirt, loose denim and was barefoot.
The old man looked around first and then saw man whom everybody called Célestine D'Amares – a French misanthropist who had been caught in USA under strange circumstances.
The chair which one belonged to Keaton was now his. He calmly sat down, looked at mirror and discovered himself looking like a Middle Eastern beggar dressed in rags.
"I – I was there." The old man pointed at mirror, trying to tell him people were eying them from the other end, "There's a room inside this looking glass. Patrick Turner." He introduced himself while D'Amares didn’t even glance at him, "And I am not a cop."
"I don’t care who you are. I – I – I'm just," he didn’t opt to speak for a while, "I am not D'Amares. I am Allan. Allan O'Connell."
"You know what, the microphone affixed on you collar has been deactivated. They can't listen to what you speak," Truner pointed at his shirt and looked down at his clothes, "and I don’t even have mic attached anywhere on my clothes."
Those men shared awkward silence for sometimes. Turner couldn’t imagine sharing awkward silence with same sex could also be this much of an embarrassment.
"Can you tell me what exactly happened to you?" Turner broke the silence.
O'Connell glanced at him, "Is this new interrogation technique or what?"
"No, of course not! Believe me or not but I'm also here due to an unexplainable occurrence. It's true…" Turner spoke fast but slowed down, "You're not alone…"

"I don’t care."
"You don’t believe it? Why would they let us communicate inside an interrogation room instead of being put inside solitary? Haven’t you got any idea yet?!"
"What do you want?" O'Connell, at last, looked convinced.
"A piece of information…that's it. Maybe I can help you in this case. Trust me. Maybe this event which had happened to me is relatable with yours." Turner persuaded.
"You mean to say the reason behind your arrest is somewhat linked with mine?"
"Maybe it –"
"You've got no idea had been through –" O'Connell interrupted.
"A mystic female?" Turner hurried, "Isn't it a link?"
O'Connell froze and looked at him for a long time by deciding if he should be telling about the event to a complete stranger or not. But the mention of a feminine link convinced him to share the reason he was arrested.
O'Connell took a long breath to start.

Millennial Mage (A Slice of Life, Progression Fantasy)
The world is wild, untamed. Humanity thrives, but only in isolated, well defended cities, ever shrinking as the wilds slowly reclaim all that was taken. The most capable magic users are raised up as Mages to serve mankind, further their cause, and defend them over the course of millennia. Tala is freshly graduated from the magic academy and determined to make her own way in the world. She hopes to pay off her massive debts, quickly, but still plans on living each and every day to the fullest. Too bad the Academy left some glaring holes in her practical education. Loath to let that slow her down, and with no patience for a standard, low-paid apprenticeship (intended to fill many of those knowledge gaps), Tala strives to learn and improve as rapidly as she can on her own. Her unorthodox methods for preserving her own life allow her to take greater risks in search of profit and advancement, much to the surprise of those around her.

Across the Realms [Dropped]
Disclaimer: I'll leave this on here for anyone to read. The last time I uploaded a chapter was nearly a year ago, and to all the readers who still kept their trust in me after I came back from my umpteenth hiatus, I am sorry. I will not carry on writing this; I started off without the correct foundations of a novel, nor commitment to fully finish it and I do not want to lie to you all once again. Maybe one day, I may decide to re-write the novel, with a new basis or at least a comprehensive starting point with many of the narrative errors cleared up; but, till then, this is goodbye. And, once again, thank you for the motivation you gave me. Even now, I see many emails come through with people commenting. Goodbye. A child blessed by the Astral. An unprecedented destiny. Watch his path, as he marches up the stairway of Heaven. A March of a Sovereign. [Adventure, Wuxia, Martial Arts, Fantasy] This is a Qihuan novel; it has eastern and western fantasy elements. More often than not in Xianxia or Xuanhuan there is a severe lack of character development, being a western writer I'm changing that. My characters, from my totally unbiased view, feel fleshed out and actually have emotions. This is my first attempt at a novel, I'm writing as a means to better convey my thoughts. I will, hopefully, steadily improve chapter-by-chapter. I'm very open to feedback and constructive criticism. As one can see this is a cultivation novel, so you know how this goes. I've decided to jump-start the whole rags-to-riches scenario. He is strong from the start and is given the utility to do so. *The cover art is not my own, all rights reserved to the owner. I will take it down if necessary. *The style of the recent chapters is comparatively different than Chapter 1.

I Don't Seem So Bright in a Well-Lit Room
The universe is a very strange place. It will take even stranger heroes to save it."Absurd. Existential. Ridiculous. Tragic. Comic. The antiheroes of "I Don't Seem So Bright in a Well-Lit Room" are a kind of Rosencrantz and Guildenstern with space packs, inadvertently colliding with their destinies against a starry background of witty wordplay. With a vision as sprawling and limitless as the loveably goofy universe in which it's set, Browning's wit, wisdom and heart are always at play, combining to form a wonderfully panoramic and very silly heroes' journey that visits every trope of its overlapping genres and draws moustaches on all of them."- Marcel St. Pierre, author of "Vengeful Hank" and "Cliché and Wind Go Hitchhiking".(Sci-fi /Dark Humour/Absurd) *Completed! Enjoy! Highest rankings:#1 Adventure#1 Action#1 Science Fiction/Sci-fi#1 Misadventures#1 Absurd#1 MindbendingAnd all because of YOU.
