《Monarch of the Darkness》C13. Enchantress of flame

"Are you sure you want to miss this chance? Anastasya giggled slyly. "Here, open your mouth and say, Aaa." She chuckled while handing Hayden a spoon full of ice cream towards his mouth.
Hayden cursed silently. He thought that Anastasya really liked to attract troubles.
At first, he wanted to refuse, but he realized that he couldn't when he saw Anastasya's pleading eyes. Therefore, he quietly resigned to his fate and opened his mouth.
"Hehe, is it good?" Anastasya smiled sweetly.
Hayden smirked and made a sly smile towards her. "Indeed, it's good. it tastes sweet just like you."
"Y-you... Pervert-." Anastasya gritted her teeth. She would definitely teach this guy a lesson!
Hayden and Anastasya continued chatting and laughing. Both of them enjoyed their time together without caring about other people's gaze. After some time, Hayden also felt that he started to know Anastasya better after spending more time with her.
As they chatted happily together, a rich fat guy with a long mustache came towards them with his group in an arrogant manner. Hayden guessed that this bunch of people were attracted to Anastasya, and they disliked him for being together with her.
"Good day, beautiful lady. Wanna come and drink together with us?" Asked the fat guy arrogantly.
Hayden watched Anastasya glancing away without caring. He also looked curiously at her unperturbed expression. He doesn't know why, but he got a slight feeling that these people were not even worth a dust for her. Despite not knowing why Hayden always believed in his intuition.
"Come, and have some fun with us. Why do you want to go with this trash second prince that only got a 3-star Origin cultivation rank." The fat guy laughed together with his companion. They were confident because all three of them were 4-star Origin warriors. Naturally, they already heard the news that Hayden had killed a 4-star Origin guy and his group. However, they thought that Hayden was only lucky because that guy was one of the weakest people in the eagle faction.

The other male customers who glared furiously at Hayden before were dumbfounded. They never thought that the person that they gossiped before was actually the second prince. They didn't know that because the second prince always remained discreet and rarely appeared in public. Now they regretted that they had offended him before.
Hayden watched the fat guy coldly. He hated these kinds of people who looked down on others the most. One thing aside, Hayden also wasn't feeling quite well right now. He just felt disgusted when he looked at the excessive fat on the fat guy's neck.
"Fatty, don't bother to try inviting her. Just go home and do some sports. Let me tell you something, the fat on your neck really makes me want to puke." Hayden said honestly.
Anastasya couldn't help but laugh. She gave Hayden a thumbs up because she liked Hayden straightforwardness.
The fat guy flew into a rage after hearing Hayden's word. It was like a sharp knife that cut right into his heart. 'Fatty' was a word that he hated the most, not to mention that Hayden also commented about it in a detailed manner.
"Screw your mouth, boys go and teach him a lesson." The fat guy roared angrily. They quickly activated their Arte and moved towards Hayden.
Hayden stood up and watched them coming without worry. Instead, he smiled evilly. These people really like to look down on him. Even though he was only a 3-star Origin warrior, he could easily defeat them.
Hayden activated Dark Movement and quickly appeared in front of the fat guy. The fat guy was surprised, but it was too late, Hayden grabbed his neck and slapped his face.
"Plaaa..." One of the fat guy's teeth fell from his mouth.
The fat guy roared in pain, but Hayden didn't care. He slapped the fat guy's face again from the other side and another teeth fell off. Hayden continued slapping him until his face turned into mush.

The fat guy's companion gulped silently. They didn't think that the second prince was so ruthless.
After Hayden felt satisfied, he lifted and threw the fat guy outside. Then he glanced towards the bald guy companion.
"Anyone else?" Asked Hayden coldly.
The fat guy companion went silent. They were not confident that they could beat Hayden even though their cultivation rank was slightly higher. They realized that only 5-star Origin warriors or above could contend with him.
"Boys go and beat him! If not, I'll tell my big brother and let's see what will happen to you later." Shouted the fat guy hoarsely while holding his bloody mouth.
His companion shook in fear when they heard the fat guy's threats. They knew that the fat guy got a brother who got a position as a royal guard. His brother was a 5-star Origin warrior! Now, they felt like they got no other choice but to confront the second prince.
"Fatty, I don't mind beating you up again if you don't shut your filthy mouth." Hayden looked coldly at the fat guy.
The fat guy trembled. He didn't want his remaining teeth to be broken, but deep inside he also couldn't forgive Hayden for what he did to him.
"Just do it! Or I will tell my brother to beat both of you into mush." The fat guy shouted madly.
His companion got no other choice but to follow his order. They began to cast their Arte and made a punching move towards the second prince.
Hayden watched them coldly and quickly chanted an incantation, wanting to activate the Wall of Darkness.
"Enough." shouted a gloomy voice from behind.
All of the men, including Hayden, stopped their battle and glanced towards the source of the voice.
When Hayden turned behind, He was stupefied because the voice was actually coming from Anastasya. Moreover, there was something different. Hayden could see sparks of fire lingering around Anastasya's surroundings. The most eye-catching thing was the red necklace that she wore, it was shining brightly on her neck. He could also feel the sudden rise of temperature around the place.
As Hayden stared curiously at her, he realized that the aura that Anastasya emitted suddenly soared without stopping.
3-star, 4-, 5-star Origin!!! Hayden was surprised. He didn't know that Anastasya was this powerful. His intuition was right of the batt. All of this bunch of morons were like ants in front of her.
The fat guy fell on his knees and stared blankly at Anastasya.
"You, you are... Enchantress of flame." The fat guy trembled and started to pee on his pants subconsciously.
Looking at his expression, Anastasya started to smirk and smiled sarcastically.
"A royal guard little brother eh. So what, do you think I am afraid of him?"

An accident which took the final years of his adolescence, his dream of ever becoming an Olympic Gold Archer, and most importantly someone who meant the world to him. Rehabilitating for a year in a hospital, the despair and dread of being alone and having nothing left worth living for finally got to him. Finding his way to the rooftop, he decided fall, but where he expected death, something else appeared; a blue message. A chill and simple LitRPG story that I just wanted to write. Note: I write with the Dark Theme setting, so if I make a colour mistake it’s probably why. I also strangely prefer using the Imperial System to measure Height, while I use the Metric System for almost everything else (Canadian by the way).

Shrike
He wants to play the latest and greatest VRMMORPG game, but he can't muster up the cash for the fancy new proprietary hardware and membership license. After months of saving up cash and arduous work, he has built a behemoth of a machine relying almost entirely on seedy old technology and a DIY guide by some dude named "Jimmy Bob." This is the story of his entry into the game. This is also a story of intrigue, exploration, introspection, batshit crazy game design, and unintended but entirely predictable consequences. This is G.C.O. Undergoing a total re-write, mostly because I think things were too rushed rather than any content or direction changes. If you are one of the few who tried Shrike when it was briefly updating, consider giving it another shot. Of no relation to either The Great Crusade or the recent (in 2017 lol) Shrike book for Warhammer by Games Workshop. All similarities in these cases are superficial; please don't sue me. Feedback welcome and encouraged, never be afraid to review or comment. HQ/Kindle-Grade cover art. Book Cover 2.0: "From the Dark"

Campaign: A Project Starfarer Sidestory
This novel’s lore, story and characters are entirely fictitious. Certain long-standing countries, institutions, organizations, agencies, and public offices are mentioned, but their histories and the characters involved are wholly imaginary. "What will you do with your freedom?"Growing up in a meritocracy, infamous for being lawless, Jordan Astros had been repeatedly asked this question, since times unmemorable. In a society where one's accomplishments and skills were tallied and ranked in order to determine one's standard of living however, Jordan quickly grew to understand that 'freedom,' was a reward earned by accumulating Merit. And so, after his 17th birthday, Jordan departed his Clan's habitat in orbit of Europa to embark on his century-long journey to rise from E-Ranker to S-Rank. And spread his name throughout the Galilean Powers. *** Campaign is a sidestory within its NanoPunk parent series, Project Starfarer. (Yet to be published. Be on the lookout for it!) In which the first transhuman known to humanity, the Starfarer, invokes a plan to seed terrestrial life throughout the galaxy. Campaign takes place around the middle of that timeline and explores the life of a key figure in that universe, Jordan Astros. And explores one of four great nations thriving in the Solar System during that time. A Meritocracy that spans Jupiter and its 79 moons, The Galilean Powers. What you'll find in Campaign: Brutal melee combat in airless and pressurized low gravity environments. A technology based progression system influenced by merit and accomplishments; using tech that's theoretically possible to exist in the near-future. An exploratory perspective of the dozens of Galilean societies, or 'Powers,' from Jordans; and sometimes others', POV. What you wont find: Romance. Harems. An MC who receives shortcuts, handouts, learns things unnaturally fast or has OP plot armor. Jordan is not a special individual. Jordan is not OP and he likely never will be. He's no different than any other citizen in the Galilean Powers and will certainly face as many defeats as he does wins. He'll suffer losses and grow as an individual, while the Powers evolves around him as well. This is semi-hard sci-fi/NanoPunk and takes place in a fictional version of our future solar system. Centered around technology that's plausible in the near-centuries to come. Everything abides by the laws of physics/thermodynamics (As best that I understand them, at least. I'm no scientist.) No artificial gravity, inertial dampeners, teleportation, FTL, or hand-wavy materials will be found in the Project Starfarer universe. Just advanced automation, nanotechnology, cybernetics and AI. Set in the backdrop of space. *I do not own the photo used for the cover*
