《The Hybridz | TBZ✔》Chapter 46 | Manipulate
Advertisement
The very next morning, I found hybrids in places they were not in the evening before. They didn't like being alone in this new space, they felt threatened. I found Chanhee sleeping on the floor in the master bedroom. He had brought a pillow and blanket with him so it would be a little more comfortable.
"Chanhee, wake up", I said and shook him. "You can't sleep on the floor."
"Ouch, my back", he groaned.
"Exactly."
I helped him downstairs and then went up to check on Juyeon. He was trying to stay awake. I helped him down as well.
"What are we going to do today?" Eric asked.
"Explore", I said. "Let's look around, take some photos and see what happens."
They seemed to like that idea. They put on their outerwear and followed me outside.
"Y/N, you like us, right?" Sangyeon asked when we started walking.
"Yes, of course I do", I answered.
"How much?" Haknyeon asked.
"Very much."
"More than anything else?" Sunwoo wondered.
"Well..yeah...why are you asking such specific questions? Is everything okay?”
They just smiled at me, looking normal which made me even more worried. Were they sick?
“Guys, what’s going on?” I wondered.
—♤—
Juyeon had told all of us about his plan to manipulate Y/N to become ours only. We had a plan to make her feel bad about leaving us so often. And if that didn’t work...then we had another plan.
“We hate seeing you leave every morning to go to work”, Changmin said. “We hate being alone. We started to wonder if you didn’t like us as much anymore.”
“Guys...I absolutely adore every single one of you…”, Y/N said, sounding so sad and being close to tears. “I’m sorry if I ever made you feel like...like I don’t.”

Bingo. We have her where we want her.
“You’re the only one we have”, I said. “And...we’re the only ones you have.”
Seeing her cry hurt so fucking badly, but it was a part of the plan. We had to do this. None of us said anything as she wiped her tears, but I couldn’t take it anymore. My heat made me softer than normal and I couldn’t let her cry anymore. I pushed through the crowd and grabbed her, hugging her tightly. I looked at Juyeon who was nodding at me, telling me I did the right thing. Y/N pulled away from me.
“Okay, I will make sure that you understand that I love you. I’ll come up with something”, she said.
“Come here, hold my hand”, Younghoon said and took her hand in his. “Everything will be better. We’re here.”
“If you think logically, you only need us”, Kevin said. “We can give you everything you could ever need.”
I could see Juyeon glaring at him and shaking his head. Now was not the right time for manipulation. We didn’t want to upset Y/N even more. We had to be careful and not do too much in the beginning. I could see that she was holding on tightly on Younghoon’s hand, still having some tears in her eyes.
“Y/N, we know you love us”, Sunwoo said. “You don’t need to cry.”
“I just...you do so much for me, I want to give back”, she said, wiping her tears with her free hand.
“You don’t need to”, Jacob insisted. “The things you’ve done are already enough! You saved us from getting put down. If anyone is in debt to someone, it’s us.”
“Remember our promise? We’ll still take care of you”, I said.

Desolate Era
Fate had never been kind to Ji Ning. Wracked by illnesses and infirm his entire life on Earth, Ning knew early on that he would die as a teenager. What he didn’t know was that there really was such a thing as life after death, and that the universe was a far larger place than he thought. A lucky twist of fate (one of the few in Ning’s life) meant that Ning was reborn into a world of Immortals and monsters, of Ki Refiners and powerful Fiendgods, a world where Dynasties lasted for millions of years. A world which is both greater…and yet also smaller…than he ever could imagine. He would have the opportunity to join them, and in this life, Ning swore to himself, he would never let himself be weak again! The Era he was born into was a Desolate one, but Ning would make it his era.
8 230Good Guy Necromancer
Necromancers are murderous, repulsive, utterly ungodly creatures. And then there's Jerry. Jerry is a novice necromancer who treats his undead warmly, seeks to befriend people instead of harvest their bodies, and doesn't mind cracking a skull or two when needed. He genuinely is a good guy—too bad nobody believes him. Jerry tries to settle down, wanting nothing but a peaceful life for him and his undead—and, when that doesn't quite work out, he sets out to adventure. He will make friends, each unique in their own way, and together, they will travel through a variety of striking environments; from a tiny village, to the land of the dead, to a jolly archipelago, to a kingdom on a beanstalk. To save a world that shuns him, Jerry must stand against a large organization of arrogant, mighty wizards. He strives to become stronger while maintaining his kindness, only to realize that, maybe, gentle hearts make the greatest necromancers. This is the story of a delightful man in a harsh world—full of warmth, action, and wise-cracking bone puns. Chapters are usually 2-3k words, and updates are 3/week: Mon, Wed, Fri. If you're looking for another fun, action-packed adventure, check out Cultivator vs. System by yours truly, available on Kindle, KU, and Audible. But read Good Guy Necromancer first.

8 122Your Mundane Transmigration Into Another World
My second fiction here, it might be similar to the first, but I will focus on improving consistency as it was not very good. The idea is to make a completely ordinary isekai story, but make it right - no cliche, some originality etc. I do not yet know where it will go, but it will involve dungeons at some point, transmigraiton, demons, elves, humans, undead. I will strive for regular updates every friday, but my writing speed is that of a slime (not a native speaker), so I might not deliver every week. Feel free to write what you think, I welcome feedback. HIATUS - will continue after I am done with my other book, I am unable to write two at the same time.
