《The Rude Time Stopper》Chapter 30 Mr.Headache
Advertisement
Sorry for not posting i was doing my part time job and forgot the time honestly i slept the whole time xD
====================================================================
- Hey ! Are you awake ? Hehe !
I could hear a small giggle just a bit to my right. I was laying down somewhere. I could feel grass brushing my back and a familiar breeze... When i opened my eyes, i could see a blurry silhouette just above me.
- Livi ?
She smiled, pushing her long black hair over her ear.
- Took your time to open your eyes didn't you ?
I didn't answer and just pushed myself up to look around... Like last time, i was still in the wide grass plain, no buildings or mountains, were in sight. Just an infinite grass plain it seemed.
It dawned on me when i looked around that i remembered all of this, but when i woke up last time in Cecilia's mansion i had forgotten about it; how come ?
I looked at Livi who was kneeled next to me. She had an amused look on her face, seeing that i had just realized it. She know what i was thinking.
- Before you ask anything, i should first tell you why you are. We don't really have all the time in the world and it's ticking.
I nodded. Whatever it was, for some reason i felt that what she was about to tell me was very important, so i listened.
Her violet eyes glowed a bit and i could swear some kind of text was going through ththem. She looked up a bit and said :
- Leraje is the demon of wars and killing, titled as the great marquis of the demonic realm. He was born in the human realm, glamoured as a human born to kill and serve. He is a natural born assassin. Out of the 72 demons, he is marked as the 14th with the most killing potential against single target.

As she finished speaking, i could see that her eyes stopped glowing. She looked at me and finally said :
- Well it's time to wake up isn't it ?
And so everything turned black... again.
===================================Dawn waking up================================
I opened my eyes. My head really hurt... as if a rock had been smashing it repeatedly. I tried to remember where i was: I was looking at a white ceiling while my body was under a warm blanket. The last thing i remember was getting one of those sudden headaches and… that black clothed person.
- Leraje…
I mumbled.
- I am listening my Lord !
What ?! I slowly turned to the right to see who was speaking and sure enough, there he was ! Standing with his green eyes and long blonde hair, clothed with a black mantle and hat. He was there... Leraje ?
I stopped time on the spot.
Okay, what now ? Who is he anyway ? Where am i ?
I looked at my surroundings; it seemed like i was in a bedroom. There was a wardrobe with a mirror attached to it to my left, the bed i was sleeping in was a double sized one with a night stand and a lamp on each side and there was also a desk to my right. Next to it was Leraje, standing stuck like a statue... Oh my god ! Did i get kidnapped ?
Anyway, first of all i needed information. There was a door next to the wardrobe and i quickly opened it, then explored the building. I could worry about Leraje later, I needed to… wait why was i calling him Leraje now ? Didn’t i always call him green eyed something ? I thought about it; why did i feel so familiar about this person, even thought i didn’t know him one bit ? or did i ?

There were stairs going down to the first floor. I was also standing next to a window and when i looked outside, i could see cars, stopped on their tracks, and other people. It seemed like i have been transported to my original dimension while I was out... But where did Thomas go ?
I looked toward the bedroom and returned where leraje was standing. I stared at him…
No I don’t feel anything bad about him. I can’t even feel any hostility towards him, maybe a bit of suspicion but i felt as if he was someone close to me… Anyway, first of all i inspected his body a bit : he was over 180 cm tall and had a muscular body his overall appearance was a rather handsome one. He had green eyes, white skin and blonde long hair going down his back. He was mostly clothed in black; the only thing i could see was his face, some parts of his skin and hair. He didn’t have anything on him other then his clothes on his back underneath his mantle he wore a normal white shirt and blue jeans with blue sneakers…
I decided to first tie him on a chair and question him. I didn’t feel any hostility towards him but who knows.
After i tied him on a chair and started time. I found the rope downstairs, in a kitchen... which I found odd.
- Who are you ?
Leraje himself didn’t seem to mind his bondage and just answered my question.
- My name is Leraje my Lord.
Honestly I was a bit confused ! Lord ?
- Why are you calling me your Lord ?
I asked.
- Because by my agreement, i am hereby your belonging. Thereby, you are my Lord !
For a minute, i thought that he was just messing with me but i could see in his eyes that he wasn’t kidding one bit. Who is he ?
- Why are you here ?
- To serve you !
He answered. It didn’t seem like he was lying.. How about a threat ?
- If you are lying, you are going to be in a world of pain !
I said and took his hand, grabbing his finger, i put a bit pressure on it but it seemed like he didn’t mind at all.
- I understand my Lord.
He answered as if he already accepted his fate. I let his hand go and looked at his eyes, trying to find a bit of fraud in it but for some reason he didn’t seem to be hiding anything at all.
I thought for a bit, where was Thomas ?
- Where is the person who was supposed to escort me here ?
- He brought us here and asked me to tell you that this place was yours, my Lord.
Wait ! Thomas did that ? Why would he let someone as suspicious as him watch me ?
- Where is Thomas now ?
- He left. He didn’t say anything when he did.
I sighed. Until now he didn’t even tell me one lie anyway so i drew the kitchen knife and cut the bindings. He seemed trustworthy for now.
Once I cut the ropes, he stood up, hands behind his back with a straight posture as i sat down on the bed. I had somewhat explored the whole place when time was stopped... it was mine now, huh.
- So, do we introduce ourselves ?
I said with a slight grin. I finally get to know the cause of my headaches.

Apex Predator
Earth is a fairly small place, but it's all Bath has. It's the only home he's ever known for all of his 500-or-so-million years of life. One day, Bath realized his treasured Earth was being drawn into the next mass extinction ahead of schedule. So, fascinated by the humans and their quick rise to power (after all, setting off a mass extinction is a pretty sizable achievement), what's a nearly all-powerful, somewhat bored, morally ambiguous, savagely violent, shapeshifting alien entity to do other than assume the form of a human and do some front-line investigating? Little did Bath know he would soon stumble upon a mysterious human organization with a gate leading to planets eons away. And that's just the beginning... A story with aliens, intergalactic space travel, mind powers, and an abundance of adventure! Author's note: ON HIATUS! Hello and thank you for reading! Constructive criticism and grammar-policing are both appreciated. Parts 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 are complete at 1271 pages! Part 7 is in progress! If you've ever read any other web serials, you might've noticed that authors get better with time (that is, their art or writing improves). Wutosama of Metaworld Chronicles noted that the first 20 chaps are always a mess. This is also the case with Apex Predator. The first two parts (ranging just under 30 chapters, or 161 pages) are absolutely subpar. While I have edited them as of 7-10-18, they require a rewrite, which is currently in the works but not complete. For a sample that gives insight into what the latter ~80% of the story's writing style is like, check out chapter 56. Vote for Apex Predator on Top Web Fiction! The Apex Predator Discord is here. Cover: original work done by me, the author, caerulex.

Devourer of Destiny
A wise old grandpa in a ring. An ancient weapon to unleash one's true potential. An unorthodox teacher who emerges from obscurity to provide heroes with enlightenment. In a cultivation world, those who would rise to the top usually have some sort of advantage that propels their rapid ascent. Things that many would offer their souls to obtain. Ebon Dirge, a fallen devil descended from the highest realms of the divine, is more than happy to accept their payment. Thwarted by the machinations of the mightiest beings in the universe, he is forced to begin anew in the lands of the weakest mortals. To prepare for the ultimate confrontation, he has hatched a plot to steal the best weapon of all: destiny. Whether it is a downtrodden youth in the savage wilds, a prince driven to desperation by the royal web tangled around him, or the students and staff of an illustrious magical academy... all should beware what they wish for. They just might get it. For a price, of course. --- PROGRAMMING NOTE This is a wholly rewritten version of the novel that originally began in 2018, not a copy-paste of those original chapters. ABOUT THE NOVEL Devourer of Destiny is an exploration of cultivation story tropes and foibles. It features: - Cultivation stuff. The story is a satirical take on xianxia and xuanhuan staples and tropes.- An irredeemably evil central character.- Multiple POVs. A lot of them, although the central character remains central and will always have the lion's share. POSTING SCHEDULE TBD. Still working it out.

Meeting myself
Canceled (This was my first attempt at a story and while I really enjoyed it, I lost track of the thread of the story. The MC was too op, and except for some fun slice of life moments it just wasn't a very good plot. Anyway, I may come back and re-write this in the future because I really enjoyed the premise, but for now don't expect updates.)I've never met Karma; or at least I think I haven't. Hope, really, because I'm pretty sure she hates me. You see, the thing is, I've always hated flying. When you don't wind up getting molested (cavity searched), then your bags get lost, or you spend the entire flight sitting next to a crying baby. This flight was even worse than any of those things. You see, this flight killed me. I won't spoil it, but lets just say, Karma owes me a few explanations. NO ONE, and I mean NO ONE, deserves to die like that. Of course, that wasn't the end of my adventure, far from it. But, you'll just have to read the story to learn about that.(This is a mature fiction, so far their hasn't been anything overtly bad (some minor sexual innuendo and drug use), but their will be plenty of blood, gore, sex, all that good stuff... eventually)
