We’re still recovering from this immense feeling of loss, and Teal is changing the topic to.. Marriage prediction?
I don’t… want to think about that.
Not now, and… I don’t know when.
I take another deep breath, and try to calm down. Gently, I take her hand, and squeeze it for reassurance.
“I’m sorry. I just… all this…”
Teal squeezes my hand back, and shakes her head. “It’s… fine. I know.”
I sigh.
“I don’t think it would be a successful marriage prediction, you know. With two cards.” I take her card, and hold it together with mine. “So? Pick one.”
That makes her crack a smile. “I-I don’t know, like… one’s a devil, the other one’s… literally a hermit. Like, I-I… I don’t know, man.”
“Just pick.” I chuckle.
“Then I want the Hermit, since I picked it just now.” She laughs gently. “Come to me, the Hermit!”
“And come to me, the Devil...!”
We share a laugh, but it is cut short.
I hear whispers, calling out my name. Of a young voice; masculine. “My liege,” it then seems to call. “I am awake.”
The whispers are quiet, but they start to get louder and louder. Teal’s widening eyes tell me she’s hearing the same thing. I tighten my grip on her hand, and she does the same. I can feel her trembling… and I wonder what she can feel from me.
Fear?
I don’t even know if I feel fear today.
I don’t even know if I can feel today.
The whispers get louder. It’s almost deafening now. I almost want to cover my ears, but I don’t want to let go of Teal’s hand…
As if on cue, she tightens her grip on me even more.
“My liege,” the whispers are now shouts.

“My liege!
My liege!
My liege...!”
Simultaneously, Teal and I drop the tarot cards from our hands.
And as soon as they hit the ground, two forms begin to appear. One appears larger, muscular. The other, small and petite.
Before we even get the full picture of the two, Teal turns to me,
“I call the beef.”
And that’s that, I guess.
A moment passes, the light changes - and suddenly, there are two men in our living room.
One, a petite boy with demon wings,
and the other, a muscular man with a television for a head.
Another moment. Teal points at television screen.
“Yes.”

The Children of the Divine Limit
A realistic, psychological isekai: What pushes people to rejoice, to torture, to sacrifice, to kill? What gives some the will to survive and thrive in a new land and others the craving for dominance and exploitation? What would those who grew up without power all their lives do when given the approval and blessings of God Himself? How far will someone go to protect those close to them? How far will someone go to exact vengeance against an unjust world? How far can someone go before the abyss looks back at them? "Everything in the world is about sex — except sex. Sex is about power." - Oscar Wilde “Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man's character, give him power.” - Abraham Lincoln Greed is the worst of all the deadly sins; all of human history lays out the evidence to support this thesis. Consider all of the above before reading this story: A 12th-grade high school class is sent to another world; a world of sword and magic called Omicron where other-worlders are revered as heroes given the divine blessing of the Lord God Sapiora, creator of Omicron's human race. It is currently a world at war. The humans of Omicron need these divine heroes as weapons against the Demon Emperor and the demihuman forces of the evil god Azazelin. However, two students within the class, Ajax Leonid and Shaula Seikennith, haven't been given the hero's blessing. They've been given something else, something more curious; the blood of a deity who noticed their specialness. As a result, after escaping the clutches of their summoners who tried to kill them for their lack of heroic potential, Ajax and Shaula enter the new world of Omicron with no one on their side except each other. While wading through rivers of blood, Ajax and Shaula seek a stable life, a life where they can salvage happiness. They have each other above all else. Perhaps the cost will be worth it. Perhaps not.
8 194Epoch: An NPC's Tale
Epoch is a slow-burn LitRPG/Gamelit novel that tells the story of Luke, later named Lucius—a natural inhabitant of the game-like realm of Elyssia where thousands upon thousands of detached, virtually unkillable entities known as the Players were suddenly introduced right after the dusk of the magnificent Age of Heroes. Shortly after the Players arrived, the balance of power in Elyssia instantly shifted. Kingdoms fell, wars were waged, alliances between races were made, and Lucius, after ten years of training in captivity, found himself being used as a pawn in a prophecy that he had no intention to fulfill. With aspirations and desires of his own, Lucius must find a way to cautiously adapt to the drastic changes in the very foundations of the realm after being sent 300 years into a future that was forever altered by the outcome of the war that his captors had lost and the Players won in a victory that resounded throughout the ages, all for a terrible price. Author's Note As an avid fan of the LitRPG genre myself, I wrote this novel with character progression, heavy Gamelit elements, and some degree of world-building in mind. If you like these, please feel free to give this novel a try. Oh, and the MC is also an NPC, in a sense. And wait, isn't this also an isekai story? Well, it's all a bit complicated to explain here. Maybe you should start reading now?
