《Do you want to play a game?》XI
Advertisement
We all sat in silence either on our beds or against them. I was sat on my bed and I was surprised that I didnt feel anything. I felt... Empty. Why did I agree to this again? Why would someone make this game? But I needed the prize money.
A loud buzzing souned off and the doors quickly opened. The exact same group that was in here before the first game entered the room and stood on the platform. I sat up and made my way to the frount of the crowd that had formed. Boss stepped forwards and began to speak,
"You have all made it through the first game. Congratulations, your moving on." All around me I could hear people sighing.
"I will now announce the results of the last game." I looked above the door and saw a big screen. There was a number that said '456 players.' Then it rapidly began to decrease.
The screen now said 201 players remain.
"Out of 456 players, 255 were eliminated and 202 players successfully completed the first game," said Boss as he stared at us. Some gasped and murmured.
"Mister please! Listen Im sorry, I swear I will pay what I owe. Ill do it, Ill pay it all!" Begged this random woman and fell to her knees and cryed.
"Pleas sir! I have a child, oh so young! I still need to register and name my child sir," said the same woman. I felt sorry for her and then another woman ran out and got on her knees and both begged them to let us go. Lots of other people followed their lead and did the same. Only a few were left standing, including me.

8 407Outer Sect Disciple
Gongsun Xianyuan, eleven years old, was a genius... or he should have been. Unfortunately when the Cultivator of the Wudang sect came to the village he found out that he had a rare condition that prevented him to cultivate in the arts of the sect. He didn't give up right away but in the end he had to resign himself to the truth. At first he despaired but he soon choose to let his dreams go and begin a new life. This is the tale of an untalented cultivator who had given up in his dreams of glory to live a normal life. How will his future unfold? ------------------------- My native language is neither English nor Chinese, I am writing a Xianxia novel because I like the genre. I have tried to maintain the chinese names and the form of address but I used the measurements of the international system(meters, grams, etc..) and the hour time(no incense stick, or others). It may spoil it for some but I think it would be easier both for me and the readers. Before you read keep in mind that this is a novel with a slow progress. I don't want to give any spoiler but at least a few chapters will be dedicated to his life in the village.

8 160Brujas de la Noche
***Spanish Edition*** Pocos lo saben, pero, debajo de nuestras ciudades, en medio de los bosques y montañas y hasta bajo el océano, hay otro mundo, un mundo lleno de magia, lugares fantásticos y criaturas mitológicas e imaginarias. Por casualidad, me enteré de él, y mi curiosidad me llevó a explorarlo. Hoy, me arrepiento de no haberme controlado, de no haber ignorado ese conocimiento y continuado con mi vida normal. Porque, aunque haya visto cosas increíbles más allá de la imaginación de la mayoría de las personas, conocí también a las Brujas de la Noche y las terribles verdades sobre la condición humana y el lugar de la humanidad en el universo que trajeron con ellas. ¿Cómo volver a una vida normal después de todo lo que vi? No sé si es posible, pero este relato es un intento de paliar los terribles efectos de este conocimiento, un primer paso en dirección a la normalidad. Tal vez compartir todo lo que descubrí, la simple idea de que este conocimiento no es sólo mío, me pueda ayudar.
