"Why didn't you tell me that they were married if you already had a certificate?" Noel accused as they were getting down the stairs.
"I didn't know that the marriage certificate existed until boss ordered me to receive a package in the mandal office yesterday morning" Prem defended himself.
"So...Deva and Siva are really married then" Raja Chandra Pratap Gupta concluded and the guys looked at each other's faces.
"I thought Hima would eventually end up with him but....Siva....who would've expected that.." Prem said amused making Raja Chandra Pratap Gupta glare at him which made Prem smile sheepshily.
Deva put away the plate covering the soup bowl and took the hot bowl in his hand mixing it with spoon and blew on it before tasting it and bought it to Siva's lips making her look at the spoon then at him slowly saying "You know if I drink it, I might be affected with atleast 80million germs".
After a few seconds of silence he reminded her "I think these 80million are nothing compared to those germs that affected you on our wedding night" making her blink and drank the soup camly.
"The injury on your head should've bought your memories back. But how much?" Deva asked putting away the empty bowl.
"A month back I had a dream a....weird dream when I got drunk in the pub... I saw a person we're close...very close... I thought it was just a dream but....when I was in coma it all came back to me that I got married and my husband left me the next morning..." Siva looked at him anger clearly visible in her eyes but she didn't dare say anything to him.
Deva bought the water glass to her lips making her take small sips and pressed a button and after a few seconds Maniamma came in before knocking and took the cart outside bidding them good night.
He slowly took the needle out of her hand and put a bandage before throwing the empty saline in the dustbin and leaned over her making her move back a little as he put the pillows properly on the bed before making her lie on the bed and covered her in a blanket switching off the lights and walked outside the room closing the door behind him.
She hated it. Being in Las Vegas. If it isn't for her best friend Larry who's marrying his boyfriend since highschool tonight she'd be in India visiting her family. She sighed for the nth time listening to the blaring music and decided to get out of this barn which is also so called pub to the locals living on the countryside.

With all the sweaty and dancing bodies it took her atleast ten minutes to get out of this pub and finally sighed looking at the starry night sky away from the noise and people. She walked endlessly until she reached an edge of the cliff where her bestfriend is going to get married.
She smiled looking at the rocks, trees and grass all around. Larry definitely has a way to choose things like this. Marriage here? I mean come on no matter how much hurry he's in he should've atleast decided a decent place for a wedding. But come on it's her best friend we are talking about so no more decency when it involves him.
They are just nineteen and started college just a few months back and her bestfriend is already getting married and here she is with not even a single crush in her nineteen years of life. She sighed again thinking about her pitiful life and turned hearing footsteps to see few couple dressed in wedding attire coming towards her making her confused.
"Umm... we already booked this place for wedding tomorrow morning" Siva said to the priest who stood beside all the couples.
"That's the morning shift marriages child" the priest said making her frown.
"Morning shift? So my best friend is going to marry with all the other couples?" Siva asked not getting the ideology.
The priest smiled and strated explaining about the place they are standing in "This place is called lovers labyrinth. The couple who married here will always find each other in every life time and be together forever. Once you kiss here and exchange the rings it's decided that you'll never leave your other half".
Siva raised her eyebrows smiling at her bestfriend's plan and nodded saying "That's...amazing. ummm...congratulations everyone. Please carryon" before walking in the direction she came from.
The priest started reading the lines of the Bible as the couples stood facing each other as she shook her head walking forward but slipped her foot on a rock and was about to fall down but something caught her hand as she heard the priest words "You may kiss each other" while the person pulled her back making her fall on the person kissing him in the process.
They both fell down and she raised her head looking at the person under her to come in contact with brown eyes which were blank looking at her as if he's trying to assess her. She slowly got up and gave him her hand but he stood up dusting his jacket and pants giving a look to her.

"I... thankyou so much and I'm so sorry. Are you hurt?" Siva asked as she gave once over to his body and sighed.
"Next time you walk, better watch your foot" The person adviced making her narrow her eyes as he turned to go away.
"Here's your wedding certificate son, congratulations but what names should I write on them" the priest handed it to the person making him confused.
"I'm not married" the person said looking at the wedding certificate.
"You kissed each other that means you were destined to be married" The priest said making Siva widen her eyes and stood beside the person.
"No..no..you got it all wrong. The kiss was an accident father just let it go" Siva tried explaining.
The priest sighed "I can't break the protocols here child make sure you collect your wedding certificate tomorrow morning after you spend your night together in one of our cabins. There you go those are the keys" and left from there.
"It's all your fault" Siva blamed making him scoff and turned around.
"Excuse me, if I remember right it was you who kissed me" the person reminded her making her avoid his eyes.
"That..t was an accident" Siva defended herself.
"Yeah? an accident which made us a married couple now" the person gritted out as he unlocked the cabin door in the woods both of them walking inside to see it is decorated with flowers and matress on the floor with wine on the fire area.
The door closed behind them on it's own due to wind startling her as the person went and pushed the matress to the wall before sitting on it leaning onto the wall taking the wine bottle with him. He poured himself a glass and started drinking it slowly looking at the fire.
She sighed and walked towards him silently before sitting beside him pulling her jacket close and sighed looking outside the window to see it started to snow "I am sorry! It was my fault and you had to suffer too. I'll sign the divorce if that's what you need".
"I need? Don't you need it too?" Her husband questioned her back.
She shook her head making him confused for the first time looking at her taking in her features since they got married. Her skin was pale due to cold but under the fire it was shining like a gold sheet as she spoke "I guess I've to add one more relation who doesn't need me to my list".
"Family crisis huh?" The person said and poured another glass of wine to her and handed it to her making her look at him and then the glass.
She was about to take it when he pulled the glass away asking "Wait..how old are you again?"
She chuckled and took the glass from him saying "It doesn't matter I'm married and officially an adult. Cheers to our marriage" and clinked their glasses before drinking the wine in one go and shuddered at the taste coughing.
He chuckled saying "First time is like that" and drank his wine.
"So what do you do?" Siva asked making him raise his eyebrow.
"Why is it even needed when tomorrow you'll be giving me divorce?" The person reminded her making her glare at him.
"Right! Now you are saying that I'm giving you divorce? It was you who need it" Siva stated.
"I didn't even bring the divorce topic it was you who bought it up" her husband defended himself and stilled at what they are doing.
Siva laughed out loud at their old married couple fight thing followed by his chuckles looking at each other. After a pause she asked "You really need a divorce?"
He shook his head saying "It's just... marriage was never a part of my life plan" making her nod slowly.
"Life is full of surprises and you should just go with the flow" Siva said and turned her head towards him.
"And that flow bought me here. To you..." Her husband trailed off turning his head making them face to face.
They both looked into each other's eyes before she moved forward and pressed her lips to his lips. The feel of his hot lips bought warmth to her cold one's but they just sat like that not even moving an inch with their lips pressed together.

Here, a man is brought to a foreign world as his new character in the VRMRPG, Underworld of Armok, at Level 1. In safety there are few benefits, only by taking risks far beyond his level could one proceed. Transported to another world, he wishes to do good and be a hero. Accumulating power to help the less fortunate. There's just one caveat; he's a Necromancer, and his greatest source of strength will probably get him lynched.Quick DescriptionAnother video game/isekai novel. Unfortunately, the MC has crossed over during character creation of a Necromancer and is Level 1. He also lacks the ever so helpful status window.Fair warning, the Friendly Villager Necromancer arc(1) is slow. He does not want to run out into the dangerous world to get killed right after arriving. Sucks to be Level 1, eh? Git gud scrub. It's basically a Slice of Life from his perspective. The Thread, in case you get a bit confused about people/places. [16+] Now probably! For strong language and violence! And anthropophagy and lewd intimations! And stupid jokes and obscure references! And philosophical ditherings and a slow pace! Make peace with the absurd, and come to terms with the terrible!

Path of Blood.
In my world, there are only idiots who know nothing of the true workings of the world. They only see what is shown to them, only accepting and not questioning anything. They brag about the strength given to them yet do not know how or where that power comes from. Sick of this competition for power that is unfair to all who participate, I’m tired of being given choices that seem fine to others but don’t make any sense to me. Others are blessed with supreme talent, others are born cripple; the world is unfair and that is a fact. But what if you could see? What if the world was open to you and only you? Would your life change forever? Would you become a King amongst men? OF COURSE NOT! For the heavens are fair and they shall maintain the balance of the realm, no matter what the case. Did I ask for the knowledge I was given? NO! Did I ask for the abilities I was given? NO! So then why make me different? Why turn me into a monster who sees all yet cannot participate in the competition for power that you have arranged? WHY HAVE THE HEAVENS FORSAKEN ME? From birth I saw everything, nothing could escape my sight. However, the heavens made me a cripple, they put me in the shadows and I can’t help but yearn for the light. Why am I still of the living then? Well, Why should I give the Heavens the satisfaction of seeing me give up? I will not submit to the heavens nor will I submit to the bastards that wish to use me. All I can do now is continue to rebel against everything. All I can do is continue to battle the Heavens in my heart. I shall carve out a new path for all those like me, a path that will go against the very constitution of this world. How will I do this? I do not know. But I will! ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I will upload a chapter a day on Royalroad (maybe more) however if you want more of the story at a quicker pace then go to fantasy-books.live. There are currently 110+ chapters of Path of Blood there. P.S - I started Path of Blood about a year ago so the first fifteen chapters have some problems character wise however I'm currently working with an editor to remedy these to make the story a better read. Anyway, these issues don't last long and since Pob is a story that rewards the patient, only those who've read till the latest will understand how good the story really is....I designed it to get better with every ark, surprises planned at every corner and the eventual ending of Pob will definitely not dissapoint, so stick around and give it a chance. :D
