《Favored Empress Brings Chaos and Destruction (Book 1)》Page 56

Prince Andrew is currently inside the dungeon. The husband and wife are both tight-lipped and refuse to provide the answers that he wants to hear! He tried physical torture on the man but he really would not spill the beans! Since he could not torture him to death so he changed his strategy. He will use psychological torture instead!
"Are you going to tell me what I want to know or something bad will happen to your beloved wife..." He maliciously stared at the beautiful middle-aged woman tied to a chair beside the man who is panting and hanging from the ceiling, tied to chains, blood dripping severely from the physical tortures that were applied to his huge muscular body.
This time the woman could not take it anymore seeing her husband's suffering!
"You are truly an evil incarnate! We made the right decision not to marry off our daughter to someone like you!" Lady Andrea could no longer keep her mouth shut! Her heart is aching seeing her husband's physical, mental, and emotional suffering!
Prince Andrew's face became darker, colder, and more malevolent after he heard it!
I am right! These two people know something very important about me and my Beatrix! They know about the nature of our connection to each other! I am going to find out soon...
"Andrea! Do not interrupt! Stay out of this!" General Ardor warned his wife not to interfere as much as possible.
Sad to say, General Ardor could not protect her or himself at this time! He and his wife were captured by this cursed and hateful prince! When his daughter told them about her previous lifetimes, he made a further and deeper secret investigation about the two princes, especially Prince Andrew! He uncovered many dangerous secrets like the existence of his black army, ghost navy, red assassins, and shadow spies! The general discovered the hidden and dangerous power and influence of Prince Andrew. He could guess about the nature of Prince Andrew's ambition but it is a pity that he lacks concrete evidence to present it to the emperor!

At first, he thought that this hateful entity must have discovered that he knew too much which is why he laid an effective trap for him and his wife, Andrea. They grandly fell into his trap while they are on their way to their vacation! The worse is no one will know of their disappearance for at least four months since he and his wife are supposedly on vacation!
This prince is truly a sly fox! Now, he is torturing him to death but to his amazement and contrary to what he expected, this hateful entity did not ask him about the sensitive information that he knew about him, other imperial family members, the Sky Empire, other officials, and the neighboring empires... He seems interested to know everything about his daughter and he is itching to know if he and his daughter have a connection or some sort of relation to each other aside from the canceled betrothal.
General Ardor understood that Prince Andrew is already aware of all the tricks the Lamoreaux and Marvel families did to break the marriage arrangement! He feels that the evil entity is not happy about it! He is torturing him just to know all things about his daughter but he, as a Father and General, is determined to never reveal anything to him! He could kill him but he will never reveal his daughter's secret!
General Ardor is glad that he did not do anything bad to his wife, Andrea, or at least none at the moment but he is so afraid that this hateful entity will do it soon. He does not know if he could continue his firm stand if this evil incarnate does something bad to his wife!
"Tell me everything about my Beatrix. Tell me why she escaped marrying into the imperial family. I know that we have some sort of special connection... What is it?" Prince Andrew rephrased his question.

"Your Highness Prince Andrew, the only connection between you and my daughter is the broken marriage arrangement. That is all!" The General repeated his answer. "Your Highness, please release me and my wife. We will act like nothing happened!"
Prince Andrew smiled maliciously...
"Do you share the same thoughts, Lady Andrea? If you cooperate and tell me exactly what I want to know, you have my word that I will immediately release both of you..." Prince Andrew declared.
Lady Andrea looked at her suffering husband. She understands his hidden message: Do not tell him anything!' so she steeled herself and lied.
"As my husband said, there is nothing special, Your Highness Prince Andrew. Your only connection is the broken marriage arrangement." She repeated what her husband said.
Prince Andrew looked at both of them.
Do they think I am stupid? I could feel that they are not telling the truth!!!

Dungeon Core Chat Room.
This is a slower-paced "experiment and dungeon building" web novel that tries to use the idea of peer-to-peer communication with Dungeon Cores instead of Dungeon to slave monster communication to break up the detailed dungeon building. Rank 1 description: (minimum met for system initialization...detailed description as follows) Each race was given a system by the gods to make up for their shortcomings and balance their place in this world. Humans: Abysmally bad at understanding and using magic unable to use more than the lowest of magic were given the "Skill System" magic in the form of premade skills with use, study, and mastery tied to experience. Elves: Intuitively understand magic and have long lives leading to vast knowledge and skill in their chosen fields. However, as a species, they have nearly zero sex drive and less than low fertility, so they were gifted the "World Tree System" with experience gained through the care of natural areas – gifting the chance of children to increase their numbers without dirty copulation. All “natural” or “wild” monsters are given an "Evolution system" designed around killing and consuming as many creatures as possible, slowly increasing strength and, at thresholds, allowing mutations to alter them multiple times. Dungeon cores are different. Unlike humans, they can see, manipulate and live off mana. Unlike Elves, they naturally crystallize after extended periods of time in high mana level areas. However, they cannot easily move or communicate and typically go insane without companionship. As a species other than the odd eccentric they are unimaginative. Brute forcing solutions without the drive to truly innovate. Thus they have been gifted with the "Dungeon Connection System" a magical version of the internet accessible by their peers that allows them to barter and sell: bait, traps, monsters, and knowledge, as well as entertain each other with “adventure streams” using exciting recorded battles and humorous reels of arrogant chumps biting off more than they can chew to often fatal effects. This is the casual story of a dungeon unluckily spawned far from potential adventurers forced to innovate beyond its peers to find its place in this world. Rank 2 Description: Justification. I've been on a dungeon core kick for months and while I love the genre – it's sparse with entries. Often the forced conflict gets repetitive and frantic solving of threats "power levels" the protagonist to god levels to progress the plot – taking away the nice steady progression fantasy I'm looking for. (Progression in this story is linked to how strong of monsters/traps/whatever he can create not his "level"...this is demonstrated by some of his newer monsters beating his older monsters not with discrete "this monster has 10 attack this one has 40") Additionally, the focus on 3rd parties with their drama takes away from the reason I’m reading dungeon core novels in the first place – I'm looking for magical crafting, experimentation and kingdom building – not defence from higher and higher levelled enemies looking to steal/destroy/control the MC. This novel is kind of just me writing the story I wish I could read. I like thinking about the experimentation that can be done in fantasy settings using 'mana' as an excuse to make up rules and try to keep them internally consistent. IE once I define how a rule works, I'm going to commit to keeping it – no breaking hard truths I've given when it's convenient, even if it backs me into a corner. Hopefully, that should make the story interesting to read even if it's SOL and less action-oriented. There will be problems to solve and a clear progression in strength (of created monsters and knowledge) however due to not wanting to force conflict for the sake of conflict the general theme will be closer to slice of life with few action sequences and no overarching goal so please keep that in mind when picking this up as the genre is not for everyone. Finally, I have a clear goal of what I want from this story (not an endless romp but a series of arcs and then a conclusion that's a couple of dozen medium-sized chapters long) I want to commit to finishing it or at least bringing it to a point of rest. I hate all the engaging stories that stop with a “hiatus” indefinitely so in the event I lose motivation I'll work to end this even if the ending becomes rushed/unsatisfying just to give a sense of closure. I’m planning on including several polls in terms of direction and taking feedback heavily into account if I get enough readers (but may choose to ignore it if it deviates too far from the direction I want to take this as in feedback like: “The MC needs a cartoonishly evil arch-enemy that wants to enslave him and force the mc to pump out magic items” or “the MC needs to make a body and learn teleportation then live with humans” will get shot down without consideration.)

Daughters of the Void
Emily is a high school student. Too tall and developed for her age. Her will has been broken, so now, she is fearful and insecure. But that, doesn't explain why those around her bully and despise her. Perhaps... it is related to the dark and deep secret that she has inexplicably forgotten? What made her forget it? The strange being, with whom Emily once made a pact, intends to find out what has happened. To do so, will take her to a world terribly different from this one. Why does it take her to another world? Why did Emily forget what makes her different? Why the hell, all of a sudden, can Emily see three floating panels in the middle of the darkness? What is this? A video game with a lush green-eyed redhead as the main character? Daughters of the Void is a story told from multiple points of view, which occur in parallel. As if they were several series in one, where each protagonist advances at their own pace. At first, the story of each character will advance slowly, so I ask you to be patient. Soon, you will discover a story of extreme survival in a medieval fantasy world. A story, a bit dark, that can also be a bit comical at certain moments. But above all, it can be harsh and cruel to its protagonists. I’ve introduced LitRPG elements in a very soft and almost non-existent way at the beginning of the story. As the story progresses, they will become more and more abundant, depending on the protagonist. Emily is the main and first protagonist of "Daughters of the Void". After her; Dianna, Tanya and others. Above all, I’m looking for your immersion, so I will make you aware of most of the thoughts of the protagonists. I also want the reader to feel some uncertainty, putting yourselves in the shoes of some girls who can't find what they lack. I look for realism, but also to surprise myself. Around chapter 25 there is an awakening of the protagonists. Moment in which they will begin to behave as they really want to be. Unrivaled adventurers. Heroines of legend. The secondary protagonists were created to cover some deficiencies that I noticed that the series had when it was only Emily, so their chapters will be more sporadic. Tags and warnings give me creative freedom. This is the first story I've written, although they are not my first drawings. Be kind with your reviews. I know everything can be improved. Also, English is not my native language, neither is my brother's. He’s the one who translates the story. Constructive feedback is always welcome. We learn day by day. Everything helps us to improve the quality of this humble project. Let us know what you think.
