《Keeping The Balance》Chapter Twenty-Nine - The Number One Singer - Task World Three (2)
Advertisement
Hol eventually got up from the ground and headed out of the room he was in. He was in some singing place and from the memories of Rafael he was here meeting with some friends. Rafael's friends are still probably here but he had more important things to deal with at the moment.
Sending a text to his friends, Hol left the place and headed back to his home. He had to kick out someone from the house after all. He had called a ride to pick him up and he was relaxing comfortably in the backseat of the car.
He had made his assistant send information about his lover over to him and he was just looking at a picture of Emery who was smiling. Hol felt like a bit of a creep doing this but when it came to his lover he just can’t help but want to be with them forever and ever. But he still feels horrible for such a rotten first impression.
When he finally arrived at his house he saw that there were many cars there. Seeing that he made some calls and after a few minutes his bodyguards arrived. With them here Hol went into the house with a confident walk.
When he opened the door he saw the ‘lover’ of Rafael there on the couch with many other people. Rafael's 'lover’ saw him and got up from the couch and went over to greet him with a hug. Their expression stiffens when Hol gestures for a bodyguard to stop them from getting closer.
“I will give you 20 minutes to leave or else they will start breaking legs.” Hol let out a cold air that he used to give off as Ira in the other world. The friends of Rafael's 'lover’ looked nervous as they awkwardly started to get up from the couch they were on.

“You can move faster than that. Don’t make my bodyguards help you out. I really don’t want to clean up blood from the floor. It would be so disgusting.” Hol talks in a false concern voice as he continued to glare at the strangers who were still in the house.
They all quickly left when he said that, making sure not to make eye contact with him at all. When all they were gone he was only left with an angry and embarrassed ‘lover’. This ‘lover’ of Rafael was shorter than him with mid-length red hair. They had freckles on their face and their eyes were a bit narrow as they showed off their blue eyes. Their skin was kind of light but gave a warm feeling. Hol didn’t think much of this person, his lover is obviously the one who can make him feel something.
“Why are you acting like this Rafael? Did something happen at work? You shouldn’t be so rude to my friends.” Julissa spoke in a cute tone as he looked up at Rafael with wide eyes. He knew what he had to do to make them listen to what he wanted. But for some reason, he looked a bit distant today and it wasn’t giving him a good feeling.
“Why are you still here? You were included. Get your things and move out. Your singing no longer helps me so you aren’t needed here anymore.” Hol just looked at Rafael's‘ lover’ with indifferent eyes. He just wanted them to leave already, he can’t have this person here if he is trying to pursue his love.
“W-What are you talking about Rafael? Don’t you love me?! Why are you letting me go like this!” Julissa felt panic grow in his body as he realized what was happening. Rafael found someone new and he was getting thrown out. How is this happening!? He thought he could stay by their side longer than all those other people.

“You can keep the gifts and sell them for money. I won’t be giving you money anymore so whatever you have is what you have to work with. Now leave, I have to deal with something important. If you are still here when the time is up my bodyguards are throwing you out.” After saying that Hol left and ignore the cries coming from behind him. He wasn’t done with that person yet but he couldn’t have them living with him. His lover will obviously start living with him soon.
Hol went up to Rafael's room and immediately went to the mirror in it. He saw a man who was tall with dark skin. His hair was an undercut that was colored both platinum blonde and brown in the undercut area. He had a few piercings in both ears and from his memory… one on his dick. He had nice sharp-looking gray eyes. The clothes he was wearing were showing off his nicely built body.
Hol doesn’t mean to stare but his body was nice looking. He could even see a tattoo on his chest. He just gives off a feeling of someone who fucked and does it well. Hol could see why some many people were willing to be with Rafael, he was simply a sexy man.
...But this sexy man is now going to be loyal to only one person from now on. He just needs to show off to his lover that he is an honest man. He never cheated on anyone so they didn’t have to worry about that. Now he has to plan out a second meeting with his lover and show off his charming personality.
He can’t have anything bad happening to his lover and the company he runs is rather good at making idols so his lover shouldn’t refuse to work for this place…. As long as they don’t realize he is the boss of the said company…
Why was he such a creep during the first meeting?! Emery please believe him when he says that he isn’t a creep! He is just a man who goes after what he wants in life! Don’t view him as a bad person without knowing him yet.
As Hol was worrying about his lover's impression of him, Julissa was kicked out of Rafael's house with a dark look on their face. They look back at the house they used to live in for many months and could only bite at their lips in frustration.
‘Why now?! I was living the best life and now he grew bored of me?! I thought he was falling in love with me but he just threw me out like I was nobody! Sure we didn’t sleep together and barely went on dates but he belongs to me!’ Julissa was fuming as he stomped away from Rafael's home still glaring ahead of him.
This wasn’t the last Rafael saw of him and he will prove that this relationship isn’t over at all. They are for each other and no one else can have them, only he can! So what if his singing doesn't help anymore? There are other ways to help them…

The Oath of Oblivion
Rane could draw power from the dead and make it his own. For some, such an arcane birthright would be a boon and a blessing. To Rane, it meant being forced on a path of bloodshed and death based on the whims of his slavers. To commit acts that went against every human instinct he retained. Years of torture and captivity have left his body weak and his mind in shambles, yet he still retains a few, fragmented memories. They hint at a life beyond what his prison and what his cruel masters have allowed him. At a family he's lost, and a promise he's already broken. To escape, Rane will have to face fierce beasts, unhinged mages and the true essence of what it means to be human. And as the peace between ancient kingdoms grows uneasy and the world plunges headfirst into madness, the cost of freedom might prove high. In the chaos of conflict and men’s ravenous ambitions, the true name of the world has been long forgotten. Nations wage bloody campaigns with remnants of ancestral magic while nature itself crumbles around them. Only one pillar of stability stands unshaken for millennia, anchoring the realm to balance. One single truth that no mage has yet to break. Oaths, once sworn, cannot be broken. Under the Arbiter's watchful eye, civilizations rise and crumble. People live and die. The words of the strong become law, and law shapes reality. And that is just the reality Rane has to change. Dark High Fantasy story with multiple alternating POVs. The first book is complete and chapters are released daily. Disclaimer: This is a zero to hero story. Don't come in expecting the main character to be powerful right away.

8 154The Records of Eternity: The Traveller of Worlds
There probably won't be anything much for Traveller for the next while as I honestly don't have much of an idea of what the hell I plan on doing. While I wait for another spark of genius for this I want to get out some chapters for my other works, which I do have an idea of where I want to go. So instead of stressing myself out over this bottleneck, I will be focusing on other stories until I breakthrough. The Traveller of Worlds is a tale that tells the adventure of the young Saxon girl Millie Von Augustine, though she has another name. Millie is the eldest child of the Augustine family, a noble family in the Kingdom of Saxony. Although being a woman she was barred from succeeding her father as head of the family. In addition, she has been treated rather poorly by most of her family due to her tomboyish personality. But one day as a youth, she met someone in the woods behind her house, and this encounter would forever change her fate. Moving this to have a new chapter at a minimum of every three weeks as I have started another project full time. The cover artwork was made by Nez Illust, check their page for more their stuff. You can find more information on the universe of The Records of Eternity at https://recordsofeternity.wordpress.com/ I will also be posting any updates on how things will proceed and random other thoughts pertaining to the series on my website.
