《I should care because?》Peices to a Puzzle
Advertisement
Within the married couples bedroom was an odd atmosphere, neither happy nor sad. What did you expect?
The only bonds they cherished were bonds of profit. This was royalty, where the sake of the country came before everything else.
"What great timing," the King mumbled to himself. To his side sat a sobbig Queen, to his surprise. He has never seen her shed a sigle tear before. Yet he could fid nothing wrong with it. Isn't it normal, for a mother to cry for her dead child?
What he didn't know was that she was cryng tears of joy. The plan was coming together, how long has she waited for this day?
The price would never be that impulsive, of course. The sorcerer had to pull a few strings in order for him to die.
Fate was rather fickle, blessing Skylar with an immunity to poisons. That immunity getting stronger the more poison he ingested. It was rather hepful, wasn't it? As if Fate itself wated to go against the Queen.
Yet he wasn't immue to spells, now was he?
She would be happy, and will continue to be happy even when she hears that the sorcerer had taken his last breath the day before the crimson moon.

"You said that they would be there during the wedding day!" Lien shouted in anger. Her long white hair was coupled with roses, and her white dress truly hurt the eyes. Too bright! It gave her a false impression that people couldn't look at her because she was simply too revered.
"It's not my fault they didn't die yet," Rein replied, shrugging witha silly grin on his face.
"We wouldn't be having this coversaton if you haven't let them reincarnate in the first place! Quickly, bring them back!" Do they know how hard she works just to pick the right wedding day, and the right matches for them?

Yes, she was the matchmaker. Planner of well, if you stayed single or not. Mind you, she wasn't always this disagreeable, it was simply that this was such a perfect day! A day that came once in a year! And there hasn't been a wedding in such a long time! The curse of living forever, was that it was extremely rare to give birth to a child. With things like this, it was almost impossible for her to match people together.
"They'll come back. Why are you so irked anyways? It's not like it's going to kill you," Rein shrugged, and hurried to find a couch in which he could sit on.
"It will kill me! I swear! Can't you see how beautiful a day it is today?"
"It looks that same as ay other day," he shrugged yet again.
"Don't you call them your children?" Lien asked. How many times was it, that Ren called those he gifted rebirth to, his children?
"So?"
"Don't you want them to get married?" Lien asked in exasperation.
"Yes..but they have to fall in love first, yes? Or else the marriage will never last."
"They'll learn to love who they are with, who are you to slow down the proccess?"
"I mean, my child would definantly run away anyways."
Lien looked as if she was about to explode, "stop calling Silence your child! Your not even related!" And to even imagine her as a child....she shuddered.
"Their my children now that I gave them a second life."
Lien left in a flurry, there was no use in talking to a block head. They'll just keep running in circles, with her exhausted by the end of it. Might as well take her anger out on something else......she looked towards the walls of the house.....
"Don't you dare!" Rein exclaimed, rushing to tackle her out of the house.

8 106Draugr Cell //Layer 01-- Investiture:
With the end of the only war to ever reach mainland Australia I found myself living out of a small room in an old military compound that had been handed over to the jurisdiction of the Department of Veterans Affairs. The end of the war, unfortunately, didn't mean the end of hostilities. The terrorism trend that had started back in the early 2000's with the attack on the world trade center over in America, had spread to just about every country on the face of the planet. Over time the constant threat from various groups meant the civilian police force was quickly undermanned, under equipped, and overwhelmed. They were simply unable to respond to the daily threats in any reasonable time frame, and in many situations lacked the both the skills and equipment required to deal with the threats to put them down in a 'safe' and expedient manner. Veterans of the war that were being reintegrated into society however, were just about everywhere, all the time. We have the training and the skills required to deal with just about any threat you care to mention, all we needed was access to the equipment to do so. In a world first, under the new Veterans program, the Australian government had taken the rather controversial step of allowing specifically selected veterans to go armed in public. Sure, with Australian weapons laws being very, very strict there were a number of hurdles to get over first, but that's where the selection part comes in. Tangentially that's actually how I met Brianna, my current partner. We work as ringers in Victory City, I thought being thrown into imptomtu combat operations and risking my life on a daily basis for barely livable wages was excitement enough. Then I met her... it... I don't know. An AI unlike anything else out there has wedged itself into my life and decided it needs to... look after me. What could possibly go wrong? **** This is the first book I have released, and my first entry into a cyberpunk universe. There is minimal drug use, a fair amount of sex, a bit of gory violence, and a sultry AI that has decided the main character needs a harem.

Rohan lived the easy life of a noble with comfort at the end of his fingertips. He was grateful and all, but he was missing that little excitement that he yearned. Fortunately for him, the dungeons came. Monsters? Check. Game-like stats? Check. Abilities like in those RPG-games? Check. Loots? Check. It was was more than he asked for and yet, trouble was brewing. Nocturns from the East, and greedy Lords and nobles in the continent. Multiple sparks were going off and a calm stable future was slowly fading away. But that wasn't the worse thing. Shit. I mess up didn't I? [Congratulation. You have obtained a new class.] [User is now a Slavemancer.]
