“please look this way”
PSTRYK! PSTRYK!
“That’s the way!!!, now change pose!”
SHTRAK! SHTRAK
“look this way pretty ladies”
Day before the concert
The blonde hair of “Lily” was really sparkling with the light of the mirror reflecting her, and in the corner of the mirror a picture of Lily and Namine Ritsu cosplayers
“it’s been a while since we started cosplaying together”
“yea”
“how long has it been? 2 years?”
“yea, I think that color of makeup matches perfectly with your hair”
“sit down, is my turn to work on your makeup”
“tomorrow is going to be really hot, are you sure that you want to go with the gothic outfit?”
“I was thinking the same”
“your skin is softer than mine, you should try something sexier”
Namine blushed and Lily then held Namine hand
“don’t worry, I’ll be around you and there will be a lot of security at the concert, I’ll protect you”
“I guess this make up will work”
“yea”
Concert day
Namine ended up using a leather mini skirt, a gothic blouse with a black collar, high leather boots and a gothic hat while Lily was wearing the yellow outfit that she usually use, they were holding hands and joined the rest of the cosplayers that were at the event
At the entrance
“whoa, events at Tokyo are way bigger than the ones at Sapporo”
“yeah, is the first time that I attend to one concert at this place, is it your first time too Annabel?”
Annabel was really red, she could not control herself because the whole day Harima has been with her holding her hand, and Harima was wearing the outfit that he had at the Tennis tournament at Wimbledon, Annabel literally fainted when he went for her at Sendai, Ralph then whispered to Harima
|” dude, did you change the girl from the other day?” |
|” what are you talking about” |
|” this girl is pretty as well and seems that she likes you, is not this the girl from the photo you sent me?” |
["yes, she is"]
["so she is the real deal, i mean your girlfriend"]
|” nah, she rejected me already” |
|” why are you holding her hand then?” |

|” I’m preventing myself in case she faints and fall like rock” |
Harima, Ralph and Annabel where walking and saw the cosplayer photo session and Harima attention went straight to the redhead Namine Ritsu
“want to take a picture with them?”
“sure”
They got closer and then Ralph asked
“can we take a picture with you?”
“sure”
Harima was next to Namine Ritsu and Ralph was at the left side of Namine and Lily was at the left of the group and Annabel took the picture, Namine was really shy on the picture
SHTRAK! SHTRAK!
A very handsome dude was passing by and Annabel asked him to help her because she wanted to be on the picture as well
“excuse me sir, can you take a picture of us?”
“sure”
Annabel then got close to Harima and pushed him to Namine Ritsu by accident
“sorry”
They looked each other, Harima could not resist to see that pretty face close, Namine Ritsu heart started beating faster
“thank you”
“no problem”
Harima, Ralph and Annabel moved from that place and Lily looked at Namine
“are you ok?”
“yes”
“did he touch you?”
“no, is just that our eyes meet”
Lily felt that Namine was acting strange and then they moved inside the dome
“I didn’t know that you could interfere Gabriel”
“this is the first time that you pass this part of the story Benten”
“wait, are you telling me that you were here before?”
“yes”
“how?”
“well you see……”
“this retard is a fan of Saori Hayami as well and when he heard that Samael was including Saori Hayami on his plans he wanted to come”
“wait, are you telling me that…….”
“yes….”
“you are lying, dude, how can a superstar like Saori Hayami meet Harima in the first place?”
“if your first time here, look and learn”
The concert started and Harima was not as excited as the first concert that he attended, he was worried about his relationship with Reina, the concert was not the best place to concentrate and think about complicated things like that, Annabel grabbed his hand and tried to make him join the crowd while singing Saori Hayami songs

The concert ended and they started to go out
“look this is what you want, not what I want!”
“but we have been together for two years now, don’t tell me that those days were not happy”
“Yes, I was happy around you but things are not working between us”
Harima, Ralph and Annabel were passing by and Lily and Namine were fighting, Harima saw them and he saw the image of him fighting with Reina
“I guess all couples are like that”
“don’t stare at them”
“look I forgot something be right back”
Annabel and Ralph were walking
“are you Ralph girlfriend?”
Annabel turned red
“NO!”
“he is really a lucky guy, the other day he was with another girl but it seems she was not his girlfriend either, he is surrounded by pretty girls and he is not making moves on them, it feels kind of weird”
“what do you mean?”
“he used to confess to every girl that he meets, is hard to think that he will have a female friend”
Back to Harima
The heaven was cloudy and it looked that it was going to rain soon, Harima was coming back from faking the fact that he forgot something and on his way back he found Namine siting outside Budokan
“Are you, all right?”
“yea”
“I could not avoid to see that you had a fight with the other cosplayer”
“her name is lily”
“sorry, I didn’t mean to sound rude”
“is ok, I just wish to understand her more but I can’t continue with her like this”
“watching you it made me feel like myself”
“what do you mean?”
“I had a fight with someone that is very important for me and I’m still figuring out how to make things work between us”
Small rain drops started to fall
“my luck is really bad today, now is going to start to rain”
“look, I came here with 2 others friends, you can come with us if you like”
“I’ll pass, I don’t like to be a burden”
When Namine said that, Harima could not resist to obligate Namine to join them because Namine and Harima were alike, so he grabbed Namine hand and they looked to each other
“come with us, you can stay with Annabel, she would feel pretty lonely on her room alone”
On the bridge
“this bastard”
“who is coming with Harima?”
“I knew something was fishy”
“hello guys, Namine will stay with us tonight at the hotel”
Hotel Metropolitan Edmont Tokyo
“so, Annabel, you will share your dorm with Namine”
“ok”
“Ralph and I will be on the other dorm”
Harima was not able to sleep and went for a walk, and then he saw a piano in one of the salons of the hotel, he saw the image of Koharu, Mikado and Ennosuke like ghosts around the piano and then he saw himself playing it, he could not resist the temptation and got close to it
“do you know how to play piano?”
A girl with red hair and big glasses was next to Harima, she was wearing a black beret, it was like she was trying to hide something
“yea, I used to play at school”
“try it then, what you learn will never be forgotten”
Harima started playing a song called “After Rain” from FELT, the girl with red hair felt nostalgic
“you like FELT don’t you?”
“yea, every time that I listen a song of them it makes me want to learn their songs”
“have you heard Beautiful Dreams?”
“that’s from another circle isn’t?”
“yes, but Vivienne is the one that sing it”
And then she removed her Beret and started to sing it
“……. I hear your voice calling behind, the shadows of the night are hiding me …….”
Harima then joined her and when she heard his voice she stopped and Harima continued
“……I wish you would find me……”
Harima looked at her because she noticed that she stopped but he didn’t stop and then
“……I know nothing in the world can stop me from falling for you…….”
Those words reached the girl with the glasses and then she started to sing again
“I’d be anything, like the moonlight that is shining, and the night that’s never ending…….”
They ended up singing a duet

Shadows in the Dawn Mist
[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] - Winner November 2020 When a young woman is lured back to her homeland for the opportunity of a life time, she must face old fears. But never would she think that facing up to her past would change everything. Is History written by the victors, or by someone or something else...? *** I started writing this a few years ago and eventually fell out of love with it. I never finished it and my newer books are being written in different writing style, and genre with a more planned process. I decided to revisit it for the writathon and found that it wasn't as hopeless as I'd come to think. Hopefully, I've improved as a writer since them so the consistency may vary. Its been good to revisit and analyse my writing which I feel used to have some clunky and obvious dialogue which I'm trying to fix. This will always be my first novel and I hope, with a little exposure, I may come to like it again. Thanks for reading!

Daily life of a cultivation judge
Tired of those cultivators who think it is righteous to eliminate a sect or clan root and stem all in the name of revenge and avoiding future troubles, fights over treasures that end up destroying cities with no consequence whatsoever to the culprit, these psychos whose aim for the peak always involves a trail of carnage and bloodshed in its wake for some reason. Then look no further than the daily life of a cultivation judge. Yang Qing, is a young genius cultivator from a low-tier family whose only safe choice to get resources and hopefully lead an easy life led him to the courts of the Cultivation Order Society. Author’s disclaimer: Hey there this is my first novel so any criticism will be well taken though beware I’m a million-year-old monster who has cultivated the way of the sword to the peak. The daily life of a cultivation judge will be true to its name so it will be heavily on the slice of life lane with a bit of action here and there.Meaning we will see the life of Yang Qing when he clocks in and out. Hopefully, it will be one of those novels you read if you need to relax or are in a slacker mood like one of those otakus who listen to the noises of cicadas in the summer famously used in most animes. And it is in the slacker spirit that chapter release will be on Wednesday,Thursday and Friday. Sank yuuu Cover art by Conny Schneider on Unsplash
