《Majo Magica》Chapter 27

Ci made a cup of hot tea appear in her hand and sipped it as the other two sipped their hot chocolate, waiting for her to tell her stories.
Ci: When we were created, there were indeed thirteen of us. There was I, The Ice Witch, alongside the Sand Witch, The Twilight Witch, The Sky Witch, The Ash Witch, The Death Witch, The Sea Witch, The Venom Witch, The Mystic Witch, The Voodoo Witch, The Techno Witch, The Zero Witch, and The Beast Witch. Though I nor the others hardly remember the man who created us…only that our goal was to keep the world in check. We all had assigned areas to do to keep up this task. This, as you know…did not last long.
Akeru: The Beast Witch, I’m assuming?
Ci: She did not want to share ruling the world with the rest of us. She summoned her beasts to fight us, but we twelve disposed of them… That’s when it started; the rest of my siblings began to get their own ideas of the ruling. Aurora and the Zero Witch were the only two who wished to keep the plan alive. Since then, we all have fought against one another, showing our true colors thanks to the Beast Witch.
Itsuki: So is she why you wanted to know what Witches we met?
Ci: Indeed, she hasn’t shown her face in years. She must be plotting something…unless she has also passed. Speaking of her, she is also the reason I freeze this island.
Akeru: Because of her? I don’t understand…
Ci: She created thirteen creatures she calls the Ancient Beasts, strong enough to defeat a Witch. She poured all of her magic into making them…each one made specifically for one of us. The good part of this…is that they were all sealed away upon creation, all having a unique key to unlock their prison. We refer to these as a Beast Key and an Ancient Shackle. So, for example, mine would be the Ice Beast Key and the Ancient Ice Shackle.

Itsuki: A creature that can defeat a Witch?
Akeru: Why haven’t I heard of this? It’s not in any books at all…
Ci: Because that’s how we want it to be. It’s bad enough the Federation knows about them-
Itsuki: They what!?
Ci: I’m not sure how they found out…but they seek to free all thirteen of them to kill us all.
Akeru: Let’s say one breaks loose…what happens?
Ci: What happens when you release a wild animal out of its cage after years of captivity? It will run wild, searching for the one thing they require the most. In simpler terms, It will destroy and cause chaos trying to find its respective Witch. After they kill it, in theory, they will continue going on a rampage until put down.
Itsuki: That’s horrible…
Akeru: And I’m assuming this country holds your Shackle?
Ci: Underneath the island, my Ancient Beast lies.
Itsuki: Is there a way to tell? What even is a Shackle?
Ci: It can be many things…for example, mine is a sculpture with a missing piece.
Akeru: So the missing piece would be the Key?
Ci: Correct…not only this, but it has her mark somewhere on it as well. It looks like this.
Ci created a piece of paper and purple colored pen and wrote the symbol down. It was an upside-down purple triangle with a bloody eye in its middle with teeth attached to the sides of the triangle.
Itsuki: So anything with that mark is a Shackle?
Ci: Correct, and the Key has the same mark on the point that connects to the Shackle.
Akeru: So even a fool could figure it out…
Ci: Precisely…so that is why I keep it frozen; that way, the fools that try to uncover it don’t unleash a plague upon the world.

Itsuki: Do you know where the Key is?
Ci: I do not; as long as I can keep one of the two from being obtained, that is all that is needed.
Akeru: What if they find a way through the ice?
Ci: Impossible…my ice is-
Itsuki: Anything is possible! Just because I couldn’t thaw your ice doesn’t mean a more powerful Mage couldn’t!
Ci: You…are correct. But this is the only thing I can do as of now.
Akeru: You can fight them! They couldn’t kill a Witch, right?
Ci: We are not immortal, girl. Just because we are seen as gods does not mean that we are.
Itsuki: This all has been eye-opening…maybe we should-
The igloo was suddenly pelted by fire magic. Ci snapped her teacup as she dispelled it, trying to see what was happening. It was a small army with a logo on their uniform of a witch hat with an X on it. These people were part of the Anti-Witch Federation: The AWF.

What sorcery has caused him to lose all of his powers? And why has his fiancee suddenly shown up?
8 343Theory of Rifts (LitRPG)
You can join my Discord here. Keynes Kid is gifted with a photographic memory and being several months away from receiving Level 1, and a Talent, he finds himself in the center of attention of people who want to shape his Talent. If they can get him an intelligence related Talent, they will hit a jackpot. The Talent Unlocking ceremony finally comes and Keynes Kid receives… Error… Anomaly (What?) His new talent is… useless. Why then does the World Government want Keynes so badly they will silence anyone who knows about his Talent? At the same time... Somewhere in the Universe, ancient beings stir from their slumber, awoken by the system alert and the wall of glaring red warnings. Their greatest fear just manifested and they are hell-bent on erasing it from existence. -------- It is a slow-development story, so you won't find the MC with super powers at the beginning. -------- It is a coming of age story and focuses on a Talent system (in the beginning) with several additions that bring to the table upgrading of a planet’s tier and such (a bit later). There will be quite an amount of rebuilding society as new, unknown resources enter the economy, and a lot of travelling, delving and naturally, unlocking the secrets of the Universe. As for the setting, the story starts in XXI century, which technology-wise isn't much different from what we have now, but it is enhanced by magic associated with Talents. This allowed the humankind to colonize the solar system, but the technology that allows for interstellar travel doesn't exist (yet). Because it’s my first attempt at LitRPG, please be forgiving but constructive. I hope you will enjoy the story! --- Cover by Daniel Gembus https://www.artstation.com/daniel_gembus instagram.com/danielgembus

8 76The Island Princess (Edmund Pevensie x Reader)
EDMUND X READER"Edmund, I... I like you" I confessed. Fiddling with my fingers. My eyes were looking at everything. Anything. Anything but him. "I just wanted to know how... how you feel... what you feel about... me. Us."It was silent for a few moments. I finally looked at him to find out why he was so quiet.The moment my eyes landed on his face, I was able to see his expression. He had the biggest smile and his cheeks were red. Like red red."Y/N," He said my name. That alone made me feel butterflies. He chuckled, "You really are clueless."Edmund stood up and took my hands. He stood me up gently. We were now standing in front of each other with the sunset behind us, hitting the right features. Our eyes were fixated on each other."This whole time," he said, "did you not even have one passing thought that I maybe have liked you too?"I blushed. Redder than cherries."I never got to think about it" I answered. "Why?""Because," he said as he cupped my chin gently, "I like you too."You, move into a new town in England and meet the four Pevensies. You accidentally enter an enchanting new world you've never been to.ALL CHARACTERS BELONG TO DISNEY. I DONT KNOW HOW THIS WORKS BUT THE CHARACTERS AND NARNIA BELONG TO DISNEY. THE STORY BELONG TO ME.
