《Keeping The Balance》Chapter Fifty-Two – Bullied Model Student – Task World Four (12)

Hol wouldn’t leave Glenn's side, no matter what. He may have been acting a bit too protective and needy, but it seemed like Glenn was okay with this. They would just have a smile on their face and give his face little kisses.
Starie also appeared quickly after the incident with that shitty step brother. They were super apologetic and couldn’t stop crying as they tried to make up for the fact they were gone for a while because of their system update.
“Master~ I’m sorry for being gone for so long and not being here to help you protect your lover!!!! I’m such a useless system… I should just be destroy…” Starie was sniffling from their nose as they said this. Hol couldn’t really comfort them since they hid away in the system space.
“Stop apologizing. I understand why you were gone. You were getting an upgrade and this upgrade will help me out with my missions. This just happens, so don’t worry so much.” Hol spoke to himself. He wasn’t worried since Glenn was currently asleep and he was the only person in the room at the moment.
Glenn's parents couldn’t come right away, since they were both at work at the moment. He knew they were super concerned when he called them for Glenn while the doctor was treating them. He promised them he would stay by Glenn's side until they could arrive.
“… No matter what, you are still a kind person.” Starie only said that before they stopped talking to him. Hol really couldn’t understand them sometimes. They spoke in a way like they are older than they look. But still act like they are a child. He couldn’t help but wonder if it was because that is how they were program.
Hol never really took a moment to think about it, but who made Starie and gave them completing these missions? He knew Starie was keeping something from him. They knew why his lover was always the protagonist in the missions.

He wondered if his lover was like him, doing missions for a system that bonded with them. He wonders what his lover looks like, really? It wouldn’t change how he felt about them, but he couldn’t help but be curious.
“Why are you thinking so hard about? You got some serious wrinkles between your eyebrows.” Glenn looked at Axl with a teasing smile on his face. He couldn’t help but laugh when Axl immediately put their head on his stomach. They were acting so affectionately and he couldn’t help but find that super cute.
“Are you still in pain? Should I call a nurse? Are you hungry? Thirsty?” Hol was shooting question after question at Glenn, but he stopped talking when they grabbed a hold of his face and kissed him softly on the lips.
“I literally feel nothing at the moment. I don’t know what I am on, but I feel nice and cozy… Cuddle me, please?” Glenn gave Axl a pleasing look and felt pleased when they immediately got into the hospital bed with him. Glenn pulled Axl close to his chest and ran his hand through their soft hair.
Hol really had a bunch of questions, but that could wait for later. His lover is way too cute at the moment and he literally feels like he is going to explode with how much he loves them. He would also deal with his shitty father's family later, after he gave his lover enough love and affection.

Mother of Learning
Zorian is a teenage mage of humble birth and slightly above-average skill, attending his third year of education at Cyoria's magical academy. He is a driven and irritable young man, consumed by a desire to ensure his own future and free himself of the influence of his family, whom he resents for favoring his brothers over him. Consequently, he has no time for pointless distractions or paying attention to other people's problems. As it happens, time is something he is about to get plenty of. On the eve of the Cyoria's annual summer festival, he is killed and brought back to the beginning of the month, just before he was about to take a train to Cyoria. Suddenly trapped in a time loop with no clear end or exit, Zorian will have to look both within and without to unravel the mystery before him. And he does have to unravel it, for the time loop hadn't been made for his sake and dangers lurk everywhere... Repetition is the mother of learning, but Zorian will have to first make sure he survives to try again - in a world of magic, even a time traveler isn't safe from those who wish him ill. ********************************** If anyone is interested, I have a story-related worldbuilding site that can be found here. I don't update it as often as I should, but there is a fair amount of content there already. It also contains a page with all the fanart, fan translations, audio books and the like - you can reach it directly by clicking this link. I have a patreon account for those kind people that want to give me money. It also contains info for those who want to donate via paypal. The story was originally posted on fictionpress, back in 2011. When I reached chapter 91, I started uploading the story to RoyalRoad, one chapter per day. The story will continue to be updated on fictionpress as well as here, and can be reached by clicking on this link if somebody is interested, though at this point there is nothing there that isn't also on RoyalRoad. ********************************** The cover you see on the side has been made by a fellow RoyalRoad user Sydorow.

8 163St. Charles and the Children from the Sun
This story is a tale classic in its tragedy, about the foibles of Man and how he destroys the things he loves, all to prove himself superior over the Universe. In a quest to defeat Hilter during Wold War II, Winston Churchill and Franklin Deleanor Roosevelt barter with a race of serpents who come from outer space. There are a few inconveniences for the leaders of the West when dealing with these creatures. For one, they can't even talk to them, for the aliens 'speak' by manipulating light. But in exchange for the knowledge of how to build an atomic bomb, all the monsters want from us is to live in peace at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean. What could go wrong with that? * * * This story is my entry in The Royal Road Community Magazine Contest * * *
