《Revival Factory & Other Novellas》The Nymphs of Mosiac (Ch.39)

I had some pain killer tablets, prepared dinner and rested when Ueleblacker came after dumping the corpse in the night.
"You must remember one thing. I am not your butler and am not here to serve you." He spoke with no respect, "I still am a hired gun and you know what I am meant to do."
We dined and Ueleblacker asked where his room was.
"Go upstairs and sleep wherever you want." I made it easier for both of us. How could my son send a mercenary? How the hell did he get himself injured?
Ueleblacker stared at me from the base of stairs and walked up. I lied on couch and closed my eyes after watching cats play.
"Oh dear, you're hurt." His wife was panicking. Bruises were on her cheek but they were healed already. Still her face was too close with her like they were about to kiss.
"Daddy's so cruel. Speak to me please…" she sobbed.
"Speak to me!" she yelled.
"Stacy, how are you doing?" he smirked.
"Aww…you're fine. It’s all I wanted to hear from you. Let's have some talk…"
"I had been waiting for four decades to talk with you." Rick said and she giggled.
"I will take you wherever I go!" she was excited.
Rick was more excited than her, "I will go wherever you say."
"STAY AWAY FROM HIM!" a harsh cry of a huge man came. The man was his father in law. The man held a knife in his hand and was running towards Rick. "I WILL KILL THIS THING RIGHT HERE! I WILL CHOP HIS HEAD OFF!"
"Please daddy! No!" she screamed as hell.
I was woken up by noise of a water jug crashing the floor. The white cat leaped from the table and ran somewhere. I had forgotten to turn off the lights but it didn’t matter because it already was four in the morning. I was used to wake up at this time.

But what caught my attention more than the fallen jug was the door which was unlocked. I had locked it last night before I had gone to sleep. Someone else was in there? But I knew the person who could deal with the intruder. And he was sleeping somewhere upstairs.
I went upstairs and saw open doors of every room in the passage. Last night Ueleblacker seemed to have had hard time in deciding where to sleep.
I went the room where I kept papers and other important stuffs. There I saw everything messed up, tables overturned and, crucially, cupboard wide open.
It was the place where I had put all of my cash. I rushed there to find all money gone from there. There used to be almost six thousand dollars in there, which I had withdrawn from bank a month ago. Even though I still had more ten thousand in the bank account, six grand was still a lot of money to be stolen.
I was frustrated and kicked everywhere in anger.
"Ueleblacker! Ueleblacker! Someone has robbed me!" I bellowed and went door to door.
"Someone has stolen all the money, wake up!" I screamed but there came no answer.
Soon I realized the thief was none other than Ueleblacker himself. And the open door was proof he was long gone by now.

BladeMage
Arenya Azural, a dragon-blooded farmer from a small town in the middle of nowhere, always dreamed of being a great hero, battling demons and monsters as a force of magic and power. Now her dream has a chance to become reality - she's a new student at Ba'al Cedric's Academy of Adventurers, a university for warrriors and heroes to learn to battle against the surprisingly amicable demon armies of the neighboring country in an endless war nobody really remembers the point of by now. She's also a BladeMage - an exceedingly rare and exceedingly difficult dual class that few have ever managed to succeed in, but those who have gain immense power. Arenya has a long road ahead of her, with rival students, duels with demons, and a host of benchmarks she must pass in order to keep her scholarship. Will she make it to level 100 and beyond, or die too many times and be forced to return home, tail (literally) between her legs to a life of farming and dreaming of adventure? BladeMage is a LitRPG with a lighter focus on stats. It features battles, leveling up, giant monsters, a bit of fanservice, and more. [Update: The LitRPG elements are proving themselves relatively unimportant as I continue to write. They may be dropped entirely, in which case I will change the prior chapters as well as update this description.] Content warnings: As a story featuring lots of fighting, there will be blood and death. However, since characters rarely die permanently, this will not be a hyperviolent story with extreme gore for the sake of it. Some sexual content and fanservice may be included, but this should remain firmly at the PG-13 level and there will be no sexual violence of any kind. The Cover: Someone suggested that I should have a dragon girl with a miniskirt on the cover. I can't draw and I don't know who to ask or commission, so a few minutes in the GNU Image Manipulation Program and the masterful cover above was created! Please feel free to use your imagination to see a gorgeous half-dragon with azure hair, wings, and a tail, holding a lightning-infused sword while fighting demons.
