《MONA》Chapter 3

Kevin
I can feel her burning gaze on me as I sat on the dining table munching my noodles nervously. She doesn't speak anything and her dark brown eyes were blank.
I was so scared of her that I didn't dare ask her anything about her condition. I can tell that she was badly stabbed by knife which caused that 8 inch gash on her stomach.
There were also scratches on her face and hands which meant that she was involved in a fight. I am curious enough to ask her but I am not an idiot to not guess the consequence of that.
I asked her before if she wanted to have some soup that I could heat up for her but when she didn't answer I chickened out and never asked her twice.
You guys must be thinking that I am such a scaredy cat (which I generally am) but you can't blame me here.
How would you feel when late in the evening a mysterious girl, dressed up in all black and looking destroyed, bleeding to death turns up at your house? Yup, the feeling is very shitty.
I finished my dinner and washed the dishes. The thought of getting her out of my house seemed illogical and life threatening so I decided against that.
"Well, there is soup in the fridge. You can warm it up in the microwave if you feel hungry at night."
No reaction.
"You can also leave if you feel like it" I smiled nervously when she glanced at me sideways. "I am just kidding. Of course, you can't leave in that condition. Take your time." I blabbered. Hoping that I have saved my life for now.
"I have work tomorrow. So, yeah, goodnight." I ran fast across the hall and locked myself inside my room and took out my inhaler pressing it to my mouth.

In the morning I opened my eyes to the soft sunlight passing through the curtains.
I was so happy today. Finally, I will be working my dream job and will no more be dependent on my parents.
I spaced out and started thinking about yesterday's events. The injured girl, sleeping on the couch in the hall, in my house.
'Oh shit!!' I jumped out of the bed and ran out to the hall.
Nothing. The couch was empty. Just to make sure, I looked around the whole house. No one was around. She was gone.
My shoulders slumped and I was surprisingly worried. She was not in a great condition, how can she just get up and leave? Was the first thought that struck me but then I felt relieved.
She was dangerous and I am just glad that she spared my life and left.
Anyways, I don't have time to feel anything right now. With quick steps I got ready for the first day of my work.
Hmm... the smell of omelette and toast teased my nostrils, my stomach started to rumble. I am so hungry that I am smelling non-existent things.
With drool sticking to my lips I stood in front of the kitchen counter. With widely opened eyes I looked at the mysterious girl, now dressed in one of my full sleeved, grey hoodie above her ripped jeans, plating the freshly prepared toast and omelette.
"Breakfast is ready" she chirped and stretched the plate towards me.

Gobbo
Its not easy being green. Or any other color. Life's just kinda shit in general. At least it is for a goblin trying to survive on their own. I'll admit I've burned a few bridges, but in my defense, they were oh so flammable, and burned beautifuly. At any rate, I'm an exile now, scraping by in human lands, where pitchforks and torches are always just around the corner. I'd look for a better life, but I've got my hands full just staying alive when any random asshole could turn out to be a retired adventurer strong enough to hold ten bulls above their head with one hand tied behind their back. How did they pull that bullshit anyway?

I Need Time
An action, adventure, mystery and strategy story about a strong male lead. Author note: First time author, good amount of buffer chapters (over 50k words) so I will not drop this book anytime soon. This book will mostly be from the perspective of the MC. On average +5k words will be published per week. I have not chosen some of the genres and tags as I do not wish to give away parts of the story. I added the content warning tags as there will come a time for profanities, gore and maybe "traumatising" content. Though, in my opinion the content will be mild if not light. *****SPOILER*****SPOILER***** Synopsis: A college ICT student transmigrates to another world filled with magic and learns magic from a dragon. MC uses modern knowledge to develop magitech technology. MC starts his adventure using the technology he develops! Saving princesses, fighting hidden criminal organizations, learning how horribly medieval peasants live, reasoning with uneducated narrow minded people, investigating the nature of magic and searching for gods... Story review: A fantasy/sci-fi story filled with some common cliches yet presents somewhat original ideas and a few unexpected twists & turns here and there. This novel also explores a few of the commonly ignored topics concerning medieval fantasy like hygiene, culture, education(ignorance, narrow mindedness) and the fact that everybody is short because magical crops cost too much. Modern knowledge in such a setting can often times revolutionize the world if the protagonist is not an idiot or weak willed or thinks something stupid like he should not intervene in a society that systematically practices unequality of opportunity, slavery and other nasty things, of course sometimes the protagonist can be just unlucky by being enslaved, etc. In our case we are granted a protagonist who had an initial stroke of luck, learning magic from a dragon instead of struggling for years without it or randomly dieing. After that his luck goes down the drain. It is arguable whether the princess is a good stroke of luck or not, I digress. Anyway the challenges the protagonist must face will grow and no more luck or helping hands. After gaining enough power and security the protagonist will change the world for the better or at least give it a stronge push onto the right track. He will make a lot of lives better but things are never so simple and there is much more to this world than meets the eye... Missing genres & tags: Fantasy, Sci-fi, Magic. *****SPOILER*****SPOILER*****

Maverick Engineer Saga
Arjun, a first-year college student, dies because of a freak mishap and reincarnates in ancient India. Can he survive a harsh life in the ancient era without the needed skill set? Can he come to bear the loss of loved ones? Fate flings various questions and, most important of all, why did he reincarnate? Disclaimer: This story is about a modern man ill-equipped for his time in ancient India. The story delves into the realm of believability instead of wish fulfilment, with a healthy dose of supernatural elements, so no, overpowered MC. The picture is of a placeholder and does not belong to me. If I become rich or the readers donate to it, I would replace the picture. Author note: If you find errors, let me know.
