"P-please..d-don't." "I won't. I promise." I slowly took it off but it hurt so much. "H-hurts.." "I know. It's ok we're take you to our pack doctor." My eyes widen. No! Please no! I got up and tried to run out the house again but with my bad leg plus my new wounds I fell. Justin ran in and picked me up. "P-p-please put me d-down." "No. Max your hurt." Sean got up and they walked me to his truck. "P-p-please stop. Please." Justin set me in the back and held me in his lap. I felt safe but I am a runt. I-it never last long. Sean got in then he started the tuck and we were off. "Max where does it hurt most?" I held on to my food. "N-no..." "Its ok max. He's not going to hurt you anymore. I got you babe." "M-my leg..and..m-m-my wrist..ribs." I looked down at my bruised boy. "What he hit you baby?" "B-b-bat...h-h-hands." Justin set me down next to him. Is he going to hit me? Oh no. I flinched away but He just took off his shirt. "Max can I take your pants off?" What! H-he's g-going t-to rape me? Oh no. "N-n-no!" "Max please?" "P-p-please n-no." "Ok but can you put this on?" I nodded. He gave me the shirt then I slipped it on. It was huge and didn't stay on my shoulders. It went all the way down to my knees. I'm going to bleed and make his shirt smell. I'm so bad. Daddy is going to beat me. He picked me back up and set me on his lap. I laid into him. I know when daddy sees he's going to beat me regardless. The car stopped. "We're here." We got out. There house was huge. It was like my house but then times the size and a pretty brick walls. Is this a pack? We walked in. I moved closer to Justin when I saw two men and a women walked over to us. So much power came off of the man. I started whimpering showing my neck. "Max I need to give you to the doctor. He won't hurt you. His name is peter." H-he's going to t-touch me.... "N-n-no...please..I-I-I." "Shhh it's ok baby. He's not going to hurt you. He's real nice. I need you to do what he says." I nodded. I have to listen or maybe they will hurt me...or give me to daddy... Justin handed me to peter. Peter gently took me then walked me away from the others to a room. He set me down on the bed. This room smelled like cleaning stuff. I'm going to make it so dirty. I looked down.

My mom ran over to me and hugged me. I'm so sorry Justin. I hope he's ok. "Don't worry mom. He's ok. Just a bit hurt." My mom nodded and gave me a kiss on the cheek. "He smelled like piss." My dad looked at me. My mom let go. She gave my dad a death glare. "He had an accident. Twice. One with his dad and while I was calling you guys." He nodded. "What about his dad?" Sean walked over to my dad. "I didn't lose it but I took care of him. The wolf council has him now." Sean spoke up. I should go check on Max. He must be scared. "Im going up to get changed and bring my mate some clothes." They nodded while I walked downstairs. I can smell his fear.
"Hi max. Can I take your jeans off? I just want to see your leg." If I don't they will most definitely tell daddy. He won't like that. "O-o-ok." I unbutton then and slid then off winching in pain. Peter took them. He put his hand on my thigh. "This might hurt ok?" I nodded "O-ok." He took a sponge that was in a bucket of water and wiped my legs. I was pale. Even with my purple and black bruises. I cried while he wrapped my leg. It was very tight. "Can you give me your wrist?" I give it to him. It stung when he cleaned it off then wrapped it. "Can you take the shirt off? I need to wrap your chest." I took it off whimpering. He cleaned my chest and wrapped it. He pulled a blanket over me. "See almost done. But can I ask you some questions?" I nodded. He laid me down. "You did very good Max. What a good boy." "R-r-really...w-will you tell daddy that?" Then maybe he won't beat me. "I will. Just for you Max." I nodded. "T-thank y-you."

"Ma, I know you feel uncomfortable with me but I need to know in order to help you. Has your dad ever touch you down there?" I looked at him. T-touched m-m-me? "N-n-n-no." "What did you eat?" I held up my bag. "F-f-food." "What type of food?" I gave him my bag. "You eat this?" I nodded. "Is this it?" "S-Sean gave m-me m-m-money. I-it g-gave m-me chicken patty then a p-pudding." "What you drink?" "A b-bottle of w-water." Just then Justin walked in. "Hey baby I brought you some clothes." "T-t-thank you." He set down next to me. Petter grabbed my attention. "Max can you shift?" I looked down. "Y-y-yes." Once he sees I'm going to get beat. Daddy always said runts are weak so they need to be punished.

Sword System Academia
2/17 NOTICE: I'm putting this on hiatus, possibly permanently. I didn't want to spam with an "update chapter", so hopefully here and in the story blurb will get enough eyeballs. There are a couple reasons for ending SSA for now. 1) I wrote the next chapter but wasn't happy with it. I've been less and less satisfied with SSA's quality the more I thought about it. Part of the reason is... 2) I am seriously thinking about trying to publish some novels to help pay the bills, since I don't have my other source of income anymore. I have never asked for anything from SSA readers, no money, not even a review or rating. SSA is written for fun to amuse myself, primarily, and I would kind of feel bad actually charging someone money for something as unserious as that. I don't think it is good enough to ask anything in return. To use an analogy from music, SSA is more like a jam session with a bunch of friends. You're just chiling and having fun playing some music. I mean, if you are Mozart or even Eminem, your jam session is good enough to sell, but for an amateur beginner like myself, haha, no. If I want to publish something, I feel like I need to go the proper route of practice and rehearsals, which might be more similar to a classical concert performance. With SSA, I work from worldbuilding notes and a loose outline, but what you are essentially getting is the first draft with lots of so-called pantsing. Pushing out a web novel like this also means it is very difficult to go back and improve things without breaking everything else downstream. I wanted to try this "jamming" approach, as it was a good way to teach me about another aspect of writing, but to move forward, I think I need to hone my "classical" techniques, which emphasize rewriting, or at least, revising outlines. 3) While I intend to try to make $$$, my actual current goal is to "get gud". I've spent a lot of time recently trying to understand the self-publishing industry, and I'm pretty sure I can make some money by using short-term strategies with my current amateur skill level. But I've seen too many authors come and go/burnout, and really, the only way that I think I can enjoy writing and still make money on a long-term basis is to become a better writer. And the next step for me, which I haven't done much before, is to spend more time on rewriting and outlines. That is pretty much antithetical to the way SSA is developing. I've always been kind of 20/80 plotting/pantsing, but I want to spend a lot more time outlining before I even start writing. SSA jam sessions don't really fit my goal anymore. If you're curious about what's next, read on... Among other regrets, I regret not finishing SSA. It's the first story I've dropped, but then again, it's the first web novel I've attempted, so I suppose that's not a surprise. I don't think traditional web novel formats suit me that well. The whole SSA story I had loosely planned (beyond a first book or major arc) is way too large as well. Big story = good for neverending webnovel with Patreons, bad for penniless and fickle writer like me. I am currently outlining a complete trilogy to another story in great detail. I want the story to end concisely, and I also want the chance to really spend a lot of time on the full outline to spot pacing problems, character issues, lost themes, and so on. I'll still share this story on RR. What I intend to do is finish book 1, flash-publish the whole thing here for a few weeks, then publish on the big Zon. Repeat for books 2 and 3. The upcoming story will be about crafting heroes. The backdrop is an isekai-like setting, where elves will summon humans to their world as heroes, but the whole hero crafting business is still in its infancy. The elven mage researchers are figuring out how to imbue heroes with power, while the heroes are trying to figure out how to use the powers that they gain. Humans are the best hero templates because they are blank and have no intrinsic magic. Or at least that what the elves thought. The human MC has his own secrets... There will be some similarities with litrpgs, but I would call it more a progression fantasy or gamelit story. For example, the stats are very low, at least initially. Say we have a stat called Str. Going from Str = 1 to Str = 2 is a huge deal. Also, going from Dex = 0 to Dex = 1 is an even bigger deal. I guess you could call it a "low-stat litrpg", haha. Also, the heroes won't be gaining stats simply by killing things or leveling up. You can't increase stats arbitrarily, either. There will be rules to how stats can increase, and how they work with each other. The elven mages will be figuring out these rules in order to craft stronger and stronger heroes. Some inspiration will be from cultivation magic systems, but there won't be overt cultivation, at least for now. A theme I really want to explore is the idea of interactions. That includes things like hero crafter vs hero, tactics vs strategy, skill synergies, racial interactions (dwarves, elves, etc), and son. Yeah, so hero crafting. I'm super excited about this project and venturing into publishing. If you want to check out the upcoming story, you can follow my RR author profile to see when it drops here. Finally... THANK YOU TO EVERYONE! I'm very sorry that SSA is stopping, but I hope at least some of you will find the next story at least as enjoyable, if not more. Thanks to all the readers who gave SSA a shot. Big hug or solid fistbump to all of you, whichever you prefer! I hope this message is not a downer but an upper, because I am psyched!! -purlcray -------------- BLURB: Talen, youngest Master of the Koroi, makes his way to the Empire's capital to salvage his clan's fate. But the bustling city has few opportunities for the traditionalist. For the old sword clans are fading. With the rise of alchemy, gold can purchase strength that ordinarily took years of training to cultivate. Sword artists, once rare and accomplished, are quickly growing in number, especially among the wealthy noble class. Even with such alchemy, though, no one has advanced to the rank of Grandmaster in countless years. Talen's true dream is to walk the path of a sword artist to the very end while fulfilling his clan duties. And then the Swordgeists return, fabled founders of all sword arts, gods who had touched the world long ago and vanished. These myths turned into reality warn of a coming threat. Alongside this warning, they issue an invitation to the Sword System Academy, a path to power beyond the mortal realm. But first, they will hold an entrance exam... Story notes:Sword System Academia blends elements of western and asian fantasy such as xianxia and litrpg. I took parts from different genres I enjoyed and twisted them into my own creation. There will be an explicit system, both of the litrpg kind and the hard(ish) magic kind, but it is embedded within an academic structure that will develop over the course of the story. This is my attempt to design a unique type of system, the System Academia.
