《Suffocate My love》Chapter 42
Advertisement
Yoro had followed behind Kijad and as much as Adrian would like to follow along and hear what they are going to discuss, he knows it's probably for the best if he follow the others. Plus he can just go and asks Kijad later or some other time.
He turned and he started to unwrap the ribbon from his wrist. The ribbon was not tight at all ,it's just that after a vital energy block like this , it's imperative that he removes it and figures out a way to get it flowing again
He streched his fingers and he looked at those soft slim fingers as they moved softly. It's unbelievable sometimes that such delicetae hands could have the potential to be so diabolical. They look like the hands of a secretary or a musician. They seemed like they could tear from the skin if someone touches them.
Be that the case, he lowered his hand and walked towards the door. As soon as he stood there, he gazed at the scenery before him
It's was just about to be sunset so the view is pretty amazing .
The large simulation room is at the center and it forms a triangulate shape with two other buildings. The mediation room and the grand library slash museum.
The mediation pavilion is just as large as the simulation pavilion but it's a little lees tall and in front of it there are no eagle statues.It s just bare slabs of rock at the bottom and begining of the stairs .
Anyway the buildings incircled a large water fountain that had a very serene fountain . The statue was like a tap or pump that was pouring water onto the roots of tree. The said tree was towering over the tap and had everything above its truck in the form of water. Thanks to the metallic exterior, the statue shimmered a lot but it was the most beautiful at night because the water seemed to turn blue and so does the canopy of the tree.

Looking beyond the water fountain, there exists a clear an unobstructed pathway to the entry station of the island. After passing the triangulate formation and after about twenty meters, on the sides of the path, there are some open areas . The areas are large fifty by sixty meter rectangular boards that have drawing of circles each of radius ten metters. There are two circles on each side and the circles are five meters from one another and the board is eight meters from the pathway.
These circles are called are named after planets that have been painted on the semi wooden flooring. Since wood is very durable, climate is not a very big concern plus the whole region had been covered over head as these are actually martial arts training spaces. And on the opposite to the path there is a large L shaped sitting space in which the audience can watch the young cultivators in action. This is also where the sect masters can stay while watching the cultivators practice.
There has not been a guided martial arts practice session so that is yet to happen and by the looks of that, it is going to be pretty challenging exercise.
Adrian felt a little happy seeing this beautiful scenery but he will do a lot more gazing later so he descended the stairs and he headed for the library.
Walking into the library, the first thing to see is the two white large stair cases that has dragon at the beginning of the banisters. The stairs acts as a somewhat room divider, creating the left and right of the stairs. Also the stairs are parted for ascending and descending, with a large space in between.
The left is similar to the right of the room. Meaning on each side there are about tweny single user low laying tables. The seating spaces seemed to be positioned in a pit like zone because ,to acess the shelves, one has to ascend five medium sized stairs.

Speaking of shelves, they are brown wood shelves that run from the ground to atleast out two meters into the running the perimeter of the walls. Each carries a maximum of sixty books. And on each side of the room there are ten shelves , a total of twenty only in ground floor.
Ascending the dragon stairs, the path reveals a pair of double doors that also act as dividers. To the side of these doors, the setup is just like the ground floor. On each side there are ten shelves and ten low laying single person tables.and since the tables are a duplicate of one another , the same is present just like ground floor. Except for first floor the tables and shelves lie on the same plane so it's not a pit.
It is obvious that it has as a huge collection of books that can be found in any cultivation school. Like types of food to eat when cultivating , types of weapons and sword fighting techniques and other folktales and legends, calligraphy , types of paintings, wound healing and all the things like that.
Back to ground floor , for the space that is in between the stair cases, the doors open to the petit museum.
The museum just have motivation quotes from previous sect master and the line of lineage of sect master, how long they ruled and all the like. It's quiet important but honestly not a lot of students pay any attention to it.
Now for the interior decoration, the entire length of the railings on the second floor have in bulit lantern cages whose lanterns illuminate the room magnificently.
And the stair case s railings as well as the circumference of the pit have such cages which were lit really improves the scenery here such that it's possible to study even at night.
That being said, Adrian stepped into the library and the fresh scent of mud woke the room.
There has not been rain here recently so what on earth could be the cause of that and more especially inside a library. He got a little curious and his curiousity definitely got the upper hand
He closed his eyes and when he opened them , they were a shade of red and as such everything turned a shade of red.
He started to scan the region of the two doors of first floor. He could not see anything clearly but he feels like if he moved closer, a new development would avail its self. He took two steps forward when suddenly a sting bite his neck .
He quickly raised his hand to his neck and he massaged it softly.. Simultaneously he turned to look at what was stinging him.

On the Road to Elspar (Book 1)
The year is 1329. The Huntress' War has entered its tenth year, inflaming competing nationalisms and pitting the Confederacy of Caldrein against one of the continent's superpowers, the Tenereian Union. Desperately outnumbered, the Confederacy has relied on the prowess of its famed Caldran mercenaries, with highly-trained and experienced warbands returning from foreign conflicts to the defense of their homeland, and it is on their backs that Caldrein has successfully mounted a valiant defense for a decade. But they are losing, and day by day, with all the grace of a sledgehammer, the vast Tenereian armies take one more bit of Caldran territory, one footstep at a time. Sixteen-year-old Neianne from the village of Caelon has submitted herself to Faulkren Academy, one of the centuries-old institutions established to train the next generation of Caldrein's elite soldiers of fortune, to learn the ways of wars for three years before embarking upon the defense of her country. Her dryad family once hailed from reclusive woodland communes isolated from Caldrein's complicated mainstream society, and her upbringing leaves the shy village girl unprepared to suddenly train alongside other apprentices from backgrounds as low as the dirty slums of Caldrein's cities and as high as the halls of aristocratic power. Yet the war is eroding the norms and traditions that the Caldran people have long considered part of their national mythos, and the tensions within the confederacy that have long simmered under the surface - race, class, community, identity - are slowly but surely dividing its people, and Neianne must grow and discover who she really is, even as the war that she is steadfastly training for comes to its inexorable end... On the Road to Elspar is a fantasy quest - a work of interactive fiction wherein readers get to vote on what happens next at critical junctures - that is the first entry in a story that follows Neianne of Caelon, which first began on July 20, 2016. Originally a three-part in medias res prologue to a larger story titled On the Elsparian Road, it was eventually decided that this section - which covers Neianne's three years at Faulkren Academy - become its own independent story due to length, structural, and accessibility reasons. Despite this being a reader interactive work of fiction, due to logistical and verification concerns, voting will only be counted on its thread on the forum Sufficient Velocity, where this story originally began. As such, the content here on Royal Road serves as a story-only archive. You are, of course, entirely welcome to enjoy On the Road to Elspar as a conventional work of fiction, just as you are welcome to comment, discuss, and provide critique. But if you would like to participate in the voting, then I would be honored to welcome you on Sufficient Velocity. To facilitate accessibility and to ensure the best reading experience, this story-only version of On the Road to Elspar will be updated at a periodic pace, even though further content exists, so as to not overwhelm new readers on Royal Road.

I'm writing fiction. But I'm not a writer, I'm just a reader. :) P.s ------------------------------------------------- Story Progress: 1. Blurb is fulfilled on Chapter Three and Chapter Four 2. Story Arc One, The Savior is fulfilled on Story Arc Five 3. Yes, there is fighting scenes. Three Calamities have been Eliminated in Dandia -- The wide island. 4. The prologue is nearing to begin. 5. Too many conflicts. ------------------------------------------------- Past tense - When I just narrate a past without much actual actions. I mean like a news, or just telling or reporting the past. Present tense - Current event. And flashback with actions. I love flash fiction so world building is not on this story, like narrating a room, narrating a character's traits, etc. As possible, I want them to think, have their decision, etc. etc. etc. etc. Hallo guys, Help me locate my typos on Story Arc 5. I still don't want to edit Story Arc 1-4. I can't wait to reach story arc Chapter Six(I won't spoil). My outlines and very huge flowcharts are waiting. Sorry, about that, I can understand English without format so, each time I'm looking for typos I was hooked in my story and I didn't realize I forgot about them.

Life is Feudal
No OP stuff, status bars, levels or skills. This story is in favour of more realistic setting in a world of humans and various monsters. "Behind the mask of the assertive, resolute facade that employs ruthless routes at any given moment, lies the frail, anxious heart that were once but a puny human. Reviled and revered by many, none would ever know my true allegiance lies within myself, merely trying to survive this mess." Just the life of a grumpy man child living in a terrible piece of shit or a desolate state in which I call an alternate historical take on medieval Europe. Living as a peasant who is forced to take up arms to defend his own kin. This story grants an insightful take on the life of people living under constant danger, from vying nobles who commit atrocities in the name of justice, eager nations and barbarians aiming to take a piece of the bountiful land and mythical divine monsters who resembles a walking catastrophe in any possible way. [If you're easily offended by alternate-history religion and cultural practices, then you shouldn't read this.]
