《Languor || Zhong Chenle》Oshiete
Advertisement
Jaemin left in a blink after Chenle appeared.
I nod.
I stayed silent.
Chenle tilted his head. Expecting me to say something.
I don't know what i feel about him.
Anger?
Disappointment?
Betrayal?
"Okay," i said.
Not quite a good answer i suppose since Chenle is staring at me weirdly.
he plays his orange hair,
I can't help but laugh at what he said.
Is that how he said sorry?
"What do you think?"
He sighed and started thinking deeply. His lips furrowed making him unintentionally pouts.
"W-what?"
Did he just said yeh?
What the fuck is that?
Did he thinks he is a big jerk or something?
At this moment i really want to tease him.
The feelings that had crowded my chest started going away.
"What jerk?"
Oh my, what do we have here?
I smiled at him.
He avoids my gaze.
"Did you just apologized to me?" I asked Chenle.
He stayed quiet. A rosy hue crept up his cheeks.
I look at him with a little smirk.
His ears turned pinkish red. Such a contrast to his usually light skin tone.
"Are you really sorry?"
Chenle storms out of my bedroom.
Seriously.
What is wrong with this guy.
After failing to ask Chenle how exactly the thing with 127 going to affect me, i walk out to have dinner.
Chenle isn't there.
Renjun, Jaemin, and Jeno are sitting beside each other. Snacking on some fresh cherries.
Jisung is sitting in front of them, playing a game on his phone.
Haechan is not here either.
I sit on the chair near Jisung. Giving one chair gap between the two of us.
Sebastian served us a spread of meal. The dinner continued as normal as it gets.
"Thanks," Jisung suddenly breaks the silence.

The three boys in front of me and i look at Jisung.
"Who are you talking too?" Jeno asked Jisung.
"Xiao Yue," jisung responded without looking at me.
"What for?"
Jisung looks flustered. Renjun started laughing at Jisung.
"You saved the group by being stupid," Renjun finished Jisung's part.
I'm half shocked and exited upon hearing them said those words to me, more so it was Renjun and Jisung.
Yesterday i wasn't even able to try to gain their trust.
"Thank you for not killing me back then," i responded to them.
Renjun scoffs and smiles.
Jaemin doesn't look so happy about what i said. He looked apologetic.
"It may be a bother, but can i talk to you guys after dinner?"
"Do you have the money?" Renjun asked while smirking at me.
"I do have some blueberries left," i answered while pointing at my fruit platter.
"Interesting," said Renjun.
I didn't expect him to be able to talk this much.
"I'm up for it," Renjun continued.
"Oh, you finally admit you like her!" Jaemin teased Renjun.
"Oh my," Jeno teased Renjun too.
Renjun got up and strangled both of their necks with his hands.
"Listen here you little shits-"
Today was not a rollercoaster. It was like an embroidery. Up and down while strangling each other.
But today ended on a pleasant tone. After a lot of strangling and stiching, today finished to be a beautiful one.
I thought to myself as i hope that my view of the good on this day stays the same.
Still, i waited the dinner to be over to talk to the boys. Hopefully something good will come out of it.

Keter
They called him "Keter"; The Top-Most; The Crown. An unsurpassable, unstoppable, unkillable soldier. Etched with a twisted set of morals and studded by an impossible drive for lachesism, Keter terrorized the world for ages. But time, you see, is a most patient thing. As sure as it gives, so does it take. Even the Crown saw the eternal spindle drawing on him. He blinked, for the last time, and saw a world anew. Synopsis. So, basically, I’ve gotten tired of all these stale mcs that keep popping up left right and center. Either they are painstakingly good-natured or horribly written ‘evil’ characters. So, here’s my take on the concept of a Villain. Someone ruthless, cunning, and not shy of seeking darker means to an end. Hell, as long as it’s effective, he’ll prefer the blacker side of business. The new world will be, like many others, one in a medieval-type setting with traces of magic and the like; though I hope to make better use of this than most others who simply steal ideas from classical novels or other sources.

Paternum: A Superhero Story
When Quinn finds an experimental superpower-granting costume in their parents’ attic, they didn’t expect to be drawn into a web of superhuman intrigue, but their discovery serves as the catalyst for that conspiracy to slowly unravel. At it’s heart, Paternum is an extended coming-of-age story for the main character as they become a superhero, in a world with more reasonable stakes and less powerful heroes than many superheroic worlds. Themes include what art means to different people, and what it means to be a patron, whether as a sponsor, a parent, or a supporter. I consider Paternum‘s primary influences to be the various versions of Spider-Man, J. C. McCrae’s own superhero story Worm, and Drew Hayes’ story SuperPowereds. I hope that fans of such stories can find something to enjoy in mine as well. Paternum is primarily hosted on my website (thevoidwrites.com) where it updates weekly in groups of scenes totalling approximately 2000 words. Here on Royal Road, it will update once daily with one scene at a time, but only after each act is completed on the home site - the next batch of updates is scheduled to begin on February 5th. There is a discord channel for discussion (discordapp.com/invite/QFMM6yA), and you can vote for Paternum on topwebfiction (topwebfiction.com/vote.php?for=paternum) as well. Finally, you can buy the first book of Paternum, The Swift Uplifting Rush, in a couple different ways - as an ebook through Amazon, or directly from me for a discounted price, or as a physical paperback from Amazon. Buying the book will give you access to Drawing Hands, an exclusive arc that won't ever be published on either my site or Royal Road.

Dream Theater
Long casted shadows danced in the background, as a man squibbled and jotted words on yellow papers. A mere novelty, remnant and ghost that was left to age away along with the forgotten theater, a man grasped for inspiration to salvage what was left of his soul. Abandoned in the squalid room, Pxan was left hauntedly in the furthest corners of insanity that bubbled in his mind. No one would listen to his plight, denouncing him and claiming his mind was not right. Even though the world left him with nothing, turning their backs to him, he knew the books would never betray him in the same fashion. Faceless pages and books yet to be read ogled puppy eyes, ready to be penned by the madman. “Pxan! Pxan! Over here! To me!” Clamored the unpublished manuscripts. Pxan’s fingers quivered nervously, thoughts of failure flooded his mind. Wanting to surrender to the pressure. “No!” He cried. “I’ve had enough of writing.” Books with eyes all stared at him, begging for the tales to be written. Their pleaful eyes were all that Pxan needed to be moved to writing again. The man sighed and raised his pen again, stroking the first letters of inspiration that bore fruit from his mind. A maddening tale of a policeman, cultists and a violent revenge… -Currently on Hiatus while writing the second volume.The first volume is up. I will take a few days to rewrite a few chapters. Afterwards, updates will proceed as usual.Current rewrite progress 17/59 chapters rewrited. This is my first real novel, any kind of criticism or feedback is appreciated.

Sensus Wrought
Three millennia past, Gods descended and gave the world sensus. With their gifts came their primordial clash of notions, and so began the wars. Once, there was a place war dared not touch. Once, Evergreen was a haven for all the miscellaneous souls who did not care for the glory of their divine rulers. Once, for when Merkusian, Emporer of Evergreen, was slain, his empire fell into the hands of his widow and children, and thus morphed into the very thing he sought to protect his denizens from, twisting into a warmongering empire the likes of which had never been seen. Aki is stuck. Stuck in and as a Mud. He knows that'll change. Death or power will bring him rescue. Until then, he'll have to survive the road his ambition has chosen for him. It is a perilous path fraught with danger. Some might say it's an impossible path. He’d disagree. Knite is stuck. Stuck in a mask of his own creation. He knows that'll change. Time and opportunity will come and then he'll be free. Free to seek the revenge he so craves. He's never wanted anything more. His family introduced him to pain. He didn't much like their meeting—at first. His kin would rue that day, for he's made pain a friend.
