Edited and proofread by DankNugz 420
As I prepare to cast Speed Burst and charge one of the rifles she stops attacking. Why?
"..No I mustn't use that."'(Lumiere)
Immediately she stops.
"Forvish let's think this as a draw."(Lumiere)
".......Huh?"(Forvish)
I am surprised to hear those words from her, I didn't expect this.
"I don't want to show my trump card to an enemy who is watching us nearby, Didn't you do the same.."(Lumiere)
Is it really that obvious. She isn't the Empress for nothing unlike the foolish King, the one I fought before. If I reject her there is the risk both of us will be killed.
Hmmm..After thinking for a while I decided to agree with her.
"Okay, I agree."(Forvish)
She nods, then she calls the referee.
"Both of us give up at the same time, so it is draw. Please announce it."(Lumiere)
The referee blatantly blinks her eyes, after a moment she nods in hurry.
"The result of match is a draw!!"(Referee)
Immediately everyone begins to fuss about it. So noisy....I hate this noisiness.
"Well Forvish, what will you choose. Win-win situation?Or both of us loss?"(Lumiere)
"Win-Win."(Forvish)
I answered without a second thought. She is not evil, it will be fine for a while.
"It won't be fair in term of bets, then how about this...Just for two weeks, you are my pet."(Lumiere)
"Okay."(Forvish)
The deliquent girl from before went to the field to give her a protest.
"Empress! He is the one who proposed you should draw!! There is no need for you to lower your bet!"(Deliquent girl)
She gives me disgusted look
"Are you blind? I am the one who proposed it, it won't be fair if I don't do this ."(Lumiere)

She gives her a cold tone. She is very harsh.
"But Empress!!"(Deliquent girl)
"No buts. My decision is already final."(Lumiere)
Then after she announces it, the girls see me with hostility while the boys thank me for giving them normal lives for two weeks, some of them even bowed with tears flowing.
Then the bell rang and we go back to class.
As I go in many boys give thanks to me, after a while I want to go to the corner because it will be my place, but she drags me to my seat.
"Your seat is here, I won't allow you to sit with them."(Lumiere)
Are you really afraid of me rebelling that much? But won't everyone hate it? See their eyes are on me...
"Empress, the pets sit there it is common."(Girl)
She points to the corner which many man are talking happily.
"I am the one who owns him, so I can do anything I with him."(Lumiere)
She gives a signal as she says that. Don't bother me with your common people do, is what I was thinking.
"Sorry."(Girl 1)
The girl gos back and everyones lift their eyes from me. After that she gives me her notebook.
"Do my notes, don't slack off with your notes or I will cancel the bet."(Lumiere)
"Okay."(Forvish)
As I give my answer the teacher comes in, then I pull out my notebook. I put my notebook on left and her notebook on right. The teacher gives me a mocking smile and lectures at fast rate, but I can write on both of them at th same time. It is easy compared to swinging both of my swords at same time.
Seeing me everyone rolled eyes. Why? Isn't this a common skill, even Lumieres reaction was weird.

"Isn't this common a skill."(Forvish)
"...........Please continue."(Lumiere)
She waved her hands as she gives up.
(After school)
"Forvish, I am too tired too walk, so carry me. The time limit is twenty minutes."(Lumiere)
But you aren't tired at all...Well okay because I am in a position that I can't reject.
"Okay."(Forvish)
Immediately I princess carry her and she gave a little shriek, everyones eyes are on us, but I ignore it. We are at the second floor so if I run it will take around ten minutes, but soon it will get crowded so I need to act fast. I run while princess carrying her at a speedy run.
(Dorm)
"We arrived."(forvish)
After that I put her back down, but she is shaking like a handphone, Then she slaps me.
What did I do wrong?
"IDIOT!!! DON'T YOU KNOW HOW EMBARASSING THAT IS!!"(LUMIERE)
She lectures me until dinner about it, though I ignored her lecture.
(Dinner Time)
After she took a look at the menu she immediately asks me.
"Hey, get me some spaghetti."(Lumiere)
"Okay."(Forvish)
Immediately I check the refrigerator of the cafetaria. The chef gives me a weird look then I see enough ingredients. I cook it for me and for her.
After I finished cooking, I serve her.
"Here you go ."(Forvish)
"....Don't tell me you made this by yourself?"(Lumiere)
"Yeah, why?"(Forvish)
She gulped, then she prays. Hey, hey do you think my spaghetti is dangerous...Everyone else gulped...Please believe me more.
"God, please give me your protection."(Lumiere)
So rude as she eats one spoonful. Her face says she couldn't believe it, is it disgusting.
"Forvish..."(Lumiere)
"Yeah?"(Forvish)
Is it really that disgusting?
"Please become a girl and transfer to this school."(Lumiere)
"HELLL NOOOOO."(Forvish)
"Your food is too addictive, it is more addictive than a narcotic. Besides you are to capable as a boy, just change your gender already. If you were a girl I think I would eat you."(Lumiere)
I give her a weird look....Is she into girl?
"Just kidding."(Lumiere)
"Fuh."(Forvish)
"Half of it was a serious though."(Lumiere)
Immediately I step back she is too dangerous, ignoring me she continued to eat.
......But I can't return home, I will text lune later.
(Midnight)
"Knock, knock.
Someones knock on the door who? As I open it I found it was Lumiere.
"Can I come in?"(Lumiere)
"Ah, sure."(Forvish)
As she comes in she goes and sits on the bed and I sit on the opposing chair.
"Hey, Forvish why did you save them? Do you want to become a Hero?"(Lumiere)
Well, I am not interested in becoming one, I am not one who values justice that much.
"No."(Forvish)
"Then why? Don't say it was because I felt like it or something like that."(Lumiere)
"It is to protect someone. I won't tell you any thing futher than that."(Forvish)
I answer with serious tone.
".............Why you are willing to protect him. Isn't he just stranger."(Lumiere)
"Who says it is male? It is female."(Forvish)
Her face tells me she doesn't understand.
"I have a promise to someone besides it was only at first, now she is not a stranger to me."(Forvish)
I answer with honesty while hiding the truth.
"Fine, if you don't want to tell me. Hey tommorow there is no school and follow me to my house my mom wants to eat your cooking."(Lumiere)
"Sure."(Forvish)
Then she returns and I continued to sleep.
Narator POV.
Forvish's Home-Basement.
"Why everyone is everyone training so hard?"(Leon)
They train harder than yesterday, looks like they are fired up.
"I just poured oil and lit the fire that's all."(Lune)
Lune smiled, but her heart doesn't, of course Leon noticed.
"You are really are her daughter."(Leon)
..........Hope he won't be killed.

How the Stars Turned Red
Announcement as of 05 July 2022: I've been diagnosed with some pretty severe nerve damage in my left arm, rendering me unable to write effectively, and as such this story is on hold until it is healed. I am so sorry, and I promise to get back to writing as soon as possible. In the latter half of the 3rd millennium CE, humanity has spread across the stars, inhabiting close to five-hundred worlds across the Orion Arm. Earth has become irrelevant, a historical has-been. The galactic map is dominated by two mega-factions, both controlling vast amounts of territories either through direct control or through their many allies and treaty signatories. The Kingdom of Aurora is the political and economic hegemon despite consisting of only seven inhabited worlds; their strength lies in the Royal Union, an interstellar commonwealth composing an internal market and a common defence pact. These member worlds are myriad and varied, culturally as well as politically, but they all flock to the same banner. The Independent Systems Alliance, spearheaded by the Republic of Elysium, is the ascendant challenger to Aurora and the Union. A pseudo-federal multi-system polity, the Alliance economy and military is rapidly expanding, but at the cost of effective democratic and meritocratic involvement by its people. However, with two superpowers as this, chafing along a common border, and with a constant clamour of polemics, both sides have become convinced the other is constantly preparing for war and are on the look-out for any perceived weakness in their opponent. The predictable result is a huge arms race and a cold war spreading across the stars, requiring only a spark to set the galaxy aflame. Drawn into this game of high stakes are ordinary men and women, their peaceful lives, hopes, and aspirations swallowed by the vortex of conflict and distrust. This is their story. Cover art by Rhodex Designs (FB). Hope you like long chapters and adjectives. Note: English is not my first language. Another story set in the same universe, written by a good friend

But Alcar knows that there is an exciting world of adventure out there. And when he sees a half-orc master sorcerer walking through his neighborhood, he decides to grab his chance. He approaches Master Maluhk to offer his services as an apprentice. And to his shock, the sorcerer agrees to let him come and try his luck along with several other applicants. Soon though, it is all too clear that Alcar, clumsy and lazy as he is, lacks any natural magical talent.

At best, Alcar and the others have signed up to do unpaid labor. Things go from bad to worse when his fellow applicants for the role of apprentice prove to be reckless in the extreme, and as Master Maluhk’s tower catches fire, Alcar soon finds himself being blamed for their misdemeanors.
