《Favored Empress Brings Chaos and Destruction (Book 1)》Page 44

Beatrix did not tell her husband that she already arranged one hundred martial experts to guard them secretly. She scammed her husband into believing that her safety and security is solely in his hands!
Zander is really worried because he did not know martial arts! He is already a first-rank minister but what if they got into serious trouble inside the brothel? How is he going to protect her and the baby?! Now he wants to regret and be mad at himself! Why did he allow himself to be fooled by this troublemaker wife?!!
But I cannot say no to her, especially with those expressive teary eyes and pouty red lips!
Zander thought miserably. He wants to get guards to accompany them to make sure that Beatrix and the baby will be safe but his naughty wife already rode a cart and motioned the reigns for the horse to start running!
"Faster Husband! Or else, you are on your own!" Beatrix told her husband to run and sit beside the driver's seat where she is holding the reigns.
Zander did not have time to think anymore but run with all of his might to catch up to the cart and sit beside his wife who is wildly directing the horse to make the speed faster.
Beatrix laughed heartily and kissed his panting husband beside her to remove the wronged expression on his face. It is truly a blessing that it is night and they chose a least traveled pathway or else it will be too awkward to see two men kissing in the driver's seat!
The largest and most famous brothel in Sky Empire is called Ecstasy. Once inside, Beatrix arrogantly asked for the brothel manager. Soon, a middle-aged woman approached them, happily greeted them, and introduced herself as Madam Gaia, the manager of the brothel.

Madam Gaia immediately asked for their preferences but Beatrix acting like a high and mighty wealthy young master told the manager to close the whole brothel for one night and allow them to have all the services for the night and she will pay handsomely for it! Both Zander and Madam Gaia were shocked!
What the heck! What is she trying to do?!!
Zander thought and gave Beatrix a 'Do not do unnecessary trouble' look but Beatrix ignored him and proceed with her order to the manager and even dropped a big pouch of gold to give the manager a push!
After checking the contents, the manager happily told them that she is going to close the brothel for them. She called for the oldest and fiercest brothel guard and told him to close the brothel for the night but this man paled and whispered something to Madam Gaia which in turn made Madam Gaia pale too...
"What is the matter?" Beatrix asked.
"Forgive us, Young Master, but we could not close the brothel for today. We will just return your money..." Madam Gaia explained and pushed back the pouch of gold.
"Why?! You already agreed to us and even accepted the money! Why can't you close the brothel for us?!" Beatrix faking an angry deep man's voice.
"Please forgive us, Young Master! This is also hard for us but we cannot offend these big shots." The Manager explained fearfully.
"Big shots?!! Who are these big shots?!!" Beatrix complained although she dreaded the possibility. She needs to confirm it before deciding to leave the place and go back another day.
"I am so sorry, Young Master, but we cannot divulge such information." The manager uncomfortably explained further.
Beatrix could not confirm it but she could already guess who could be these big shots the manager is talking about. If she is right, this only means trouble and disaster to her! Although super annoyed, she chose to be safe and leave the place immediately and return on another lucky day. Her sudden decision made Zander smile with happiness. He does not like staying in a place like this and the fact that his wife is also here made the uncomfortable feeling more severe but soon he feels weird when he noticed his wife's sudden change in mood and super eagerness to leave soonest, very opposite to her eagerness to go to the brothel earlier. It is as if she is hiding from someone!

The husband and wife are about to go outside the brothel when they ironically meet the two big shots! And she is right! The big shots are the two people she wants to avoid as much as possible! They are the two people she does not want to have any form of connection with!
Oh no! God no! Why am I so unlucky?!! What did I do so wrong that I have to meet them here when I just want to enjoy life and experience what I missed in my previous lifetimes?!!
Beatrix complained in her heart but remembered that she is wearing a disguise so it should be fine, right? She looked at Zander and flashed him with 'Cover me! Don't you dare expose my identity!' look but unfortunately Zander is also so shocked and surprised that he did not see his wife's look...

Raccoon's Treasure
People waking up is a part of the usual normal life. An uncountable number of people waking up with fuzzy memories and selective amnesia, only to be greeted with a status screen congratulating them for being a participant of a game? The new normal. Uncertainty follows the realization as the world around them, while looking the same, melts together with memories of what was once called fantasy. New surroundings and blurred borders await as we follow a young man along his path of survival and growth. In this new world power is quantified and upgradeable, traits get objectified and give out boons, while feats, some bigger, some smaller get rewarded. So how hard could it be to procure enough food and water? Genre, tags and content warning are subject to change. They were selected preemptively to cover certain bases for future chapters. I do not have a script only a premise and general outline I will follow along as I write. As this is my first try at writing I'd be overjoyed to get any kind of feedback. Crossposted on QQ

Reincarnated As A Benevolent Tyrant
NOTICE: This story is under rewrite. New novel has been published. Search **RE: Tyranny** in Royalroad for the new novel.Link- Re: Tyranny Thank You! ------------------------ "Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory." What a brilliant line, isn't it? James was a boy who had nothing to worry about. A happy family, a nice childhood. What's more to ask? But one day, everything changed. He lost everything in the blink of an eye. The only thing left for him were the memories and dreams of the past. Trying to cope up with the loss, he cut all ties with the outside world and became a shut-in, having no one left to call his own or to rely upon. There was nothing left for him in this world, but still he lived and soon found a purpose in his life, which lead him to create something that could change the world.And on the very day when his dream project was about to come to the light, he lost his life, trying to save a little girl from an unfortunate accident. "Will I ever be remembered...? I wish... someone would." These were the last word James mumbled before his conscious faded into darkness. But his life didn't end there, as he is transmigrated into the body of an arrogant, worthless Duke's son in some unknown land with no memories about who is or any idea about where he is. In an era of political turmoil and civil strife, the Duke's son is forced to prove his worth for inheriting the title. Will he be able to accept the new reality and prove himself by leading this country into a prosperous future? Or will he cease to the pressure of his past and lose everything once more? Disclaimer: This is not a power-fantasy or a 'feel-good' story. If you feel a protagonist should never lack agency (especially in early story) or make compromises because of difficult circumstances, then this fiction is probably not for you. It is a story that delves deep into real world sociological/psychological subjects and explores many topics of gray morality. I wrote it because I like stories that make me think more about the world around us, not to detach myself from reality. Some aspects you can expect based on the tags include:- [Kingdom Building]: political drama, geopolitical/geoeconomic strategy- [Army Building]: massive battles featuring in-depth planning, combined arms, and operational logistics- [Identity Crisis]: someone translated into a whole different world having to rebuild their identity and life aims The story starts off slowly, more like a slice of life than action-adventure, but I guarantee you it will get there. For those who want to skip the slow part, start from Chapter - 35 (Beginning of The End) (The whole Disclaimer section is copied from Aorii as I am too busy writing the complete story.) And yes, just for General Knowledge, James will become OP throughout the story. He is not some legendary guy who will pull out Excalibur & conquer the entire world. Update Schedule - One chapter a day. This novel is also available on Scribble Hub. And again, I humbly thank you for reading it. I hope you stick throughout the journey.
