《Wings ↻ Zhong Chenle》↻26

Chenle was focused, one eye shut closed as the other one narrowed in on the target- finger hovering over the trigger.
The girl on the other hand, began to mindlessly play with her Angel pendant around her neck, something her brother had gifted her the day before he passed.
There was a suffocating silence that clung in the thick air, Seowoo pursing her lips together as she clasped her hands behind her back whilst aimlessly kicking the ground under her trainer clad feet.
Chenle glanced back at her for a split second, expression unchanging.
"Focus."
"On what? I'm blind so I can't really see what's happening over there."
The boy let out a forceful exhale, gritting his teeth.
"At least act like you're interested, you have to take this seriously."
"I am." She replied, defensive.
"Really?" He bit out sarcastically. "You're more interested in the ground."
It was her turn to sigh, shoulders drooping as she made her way over to the edge of the roof where the ledge stopped her from falling to her demise.
"Isn't it scary?"
"Seeing you as a part of the gang? Yeah."
Seowoo sent him a glare before brushing his comment off.
"No, being in the gang- like...is it scary knowing people's lives are in your hands and yours is in someone else's?"
There was a pause before he spoke, nonchalantly firing his sniper skillfully to his target, Seowoo flinching.
"No."
"Oh." She replied, not too sure on what to even say to that. "When did you join?"
"Don't know."
"You don't know?" She furrowed her brows. "Why, did you lose your memory or some shit?" She half joked.
"No, what's it to you?" He asked coldly and she shrugged.

"I don't know, just making conversation."
"Go make it elsewhere."
"But you told me to focus." She pointed out and he threw his head back in frustration- his neck glistening in the beaming sun- only his dark eyes to be seen.
"Just shut up."
"Hm," she pretended to ponder. "No."
"Then go talk to yourself instead of me."
"But that's no fun."
"I don't care."
Chenle practically ripped his mask off his mouth so he could concentrate better without feeling overly hot.
"What do you care about?" She muttered mainly to herself.
"Nothing."
Seowoo glanced up at him after hearing is detached emotionless reply before tilting her head.
"Sometimes I think you're a robot but then remember you're a dick."
"Thanks." He commented wryly, his tongue subconsciously trailing over his top teeth to the right of his mouth as he dislodged a few more bullets.
"Sometimes I really want to just deck you in the face." She stated bluntly.
Chenle didn't reply to it, not even fazed by it.
"Seowoo~" Jaemin's voice entered through the ear piece, making the girl jump and accidentally nudge Chenle who almost growled out of irritation.
His eyes narrowed, piercing into her skin with his tongue poking the side of his cheek, rolling his eyes in complete annoyance as she sent him a sheepish smile.
"Yes Jaem?" She replied back, a little weirded out by the ear piece.
"I hope Chenle isn't annoying you too much Woowoo."
"I can hear you." Chenle muttered lowly as he sent another shot through a man's skull.
"Yes he annoys me a lot." Seowoo spoke as she began to aimlessly walk around the roof. "Also, I'm hungry."
"You're hungry? Don't worry we'll get food after."

"I want food." Jisung perked up. "Jaemin you should feed the two kids here."
"Exactly, you-" Seowoo was midway through speaking when all of a sudden she halted- making eye contact with a stranger as he made his way to the roof.
Her smile fell, eyes widening slightly as she heard Chenle's sniper still firing away into the distance as the male snarled with a sickening smirk.
She froze momentarily, pulse pounding behind her ears.
"Why hello there." She spoke out in a slight panic, earning Chenle's attention as he side eyed her from her weird behaviour.
When his gaze caught sight of the man, he cursed under his breath but flickered between the scene that was practically a war ground that depended on him to kill men off to Seowoo and the man.
The man raised his brow, twirling the blade around his fingers.
"Hello, I've come to stab you."
"Well, that's quite straightforward of you- at least take me to dinner first-!"
Seowoo narrowly missed his lunge, quickly moving out of the way as the adrenaline pumped through her veins.
"You better not make me angry."
"No promises?" She shrugged, ducking under his arm as he growled- lunging for her once again.
"Also, what was the thought process behind the skull tattoo on your face? All I gotta say-" Seowoo moved backward, his blade barely grazing her neck as she quickly moved out of the way to create space. "-is that it looks fucking ugly."
The man was beyond enraged, his blade clattering to the ground as he lunged and tackled her to the ground.
"Let her." Jeno commanded to Chenle who was debating on sending a single blow to his head. "I want to see what she'll do."
"His tattoo is ugly." Jisung commented.
Her breath was practically knocked out of her lungs forcefully as her head went smashing against the concrete ground, eliciting a groan of agony to spill from her lips.
The male straddled her, bulging eyes as he gripped her small throat in his rough hands.
Before he could apply pressure, Seowoo jerked her knee up to forcefully smash it between his legs.
Disoriented in pain, Seowoo managed to retract her elbow to jerk it into his face with a sickening crunch and a pained yell.
"Ouch." Jisung commented, watching it all intently. "I didn't think she was skilled."
"She got training, she's holding back." Jeno commented.
Seowoo immediately got up from the floor, heart racing frantically in her chest as she made a beeline towards the sniper boy.
Reaching Chenle, she pushed herself next to him and the edge of the roof so he was the one closest to the man.
"Kill him, quick!" She exclaimed, urging him as she gripped his jacket. "Just shoot him, he's going to kill me." She blurted out in a panic.
Chenle's stoic eyes trailed slowly from her face to her little fist grabbing his jacket, glaring at her as she screwed her eyes shut in preparation of the gunshot.
After a slight pause, she heard it ring through the air with the body thumping to the ground.

Dear Spellbook (Link to rewrite in blurb)
A rewrite of this story has been posted here: https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/49881/dear-spellbook-a-fantasy-time-loop-rewrite Live. Study. Repeat. Tal is a sorcerer in a world where they are killed on sight, traveling with a man charged with carrying out the task. Every night Tal must pretend to study his spellbook to maintain his disguise as a Wizard’s Apprentice. If his disguise slips and his charade is uncovered, it will be his death. Seeking answers to mysteries that arose after his parent’s murder, Tal must accept any allies, no matter the risks, to uncover his family’s secret. But when he wakes up one morning to find himself trapped repeating the same day, he has to overcome his challenges all on his own. This story is an adaptation of a D&D campaign I ran but never was able to complete. I tried to capture the feel of a table-top RPG session —tropes and humor— without relying on the mechanics. This is not a litRPG or gamelit story and no D&D mechanics or system appear in the game. It follows one member of an adventuring party as he deals with the problems with that arise from being an adventurer. Namely, getting roped into adventures. The story has a time loop element, but will eventually move past that. This story explores the magic systems, the history, and the lore of the world through the lens of Tal's entries in his Spellbook and interludes from other written works in the world. New entries on Mondays Credit to JackOfHearts for the cover.

Interdimensional Resource Collector in a Fantasy World: (A LitRPG)
The Strada republic has been fighting the Klada High Oligarchy, another multi-solar civilization for over half a century. The law of their dimension permits the conservation of the dimensional properties of items from different dimensions; however, they cannot recreate them in their own world. As such they rely on IRC, Interdimensional Resource Collectors to seize items such as weapons, or raw resources from different dimensions. Orion Dandillon is one of these billions of workers. He has been working as an IRC for roughly two centuries and is now sent to a type-M/22 world. In other words, a fantasy world with a system. Release schedule: Minimum of 3 chapters a week, however, I’ll release more at the start. I’ll decide on a more consistent release schedule later.

Sage Fall
Out of hiatus, but with a hitch. . Read most recent "chapter", Status Update, for more info. Trapped for thousands of years. Betrayed by the ones he held dear, the ones he called family. Finally set free by happenstance, Amrin sets out to find the ones that locked him in the heart of a mountain. Find the answers he's been asking himself while conscious within the darkness. The world has changed in his time away. Learning new things, meeting new people, struggling with questions he may never get the answers to. He will journey through this new world and search for the "family" that betrayed him and figure out why they did it. If they did not have the answers he was looking for, there would be consequences. *This is a VERY HEAVY story driven fiction (read: can be slow!). There are some sections of action, drama and soon/eventually, mature related content (sexuality and gore). There are going to be sections with lots of text and little dialogue. There's going to be sections with lots of dialogue and little descriptive narration. ***Word of warning and advice. To save yourself the potential disappointment! The MC is mostly a pacifist! If you're looking for a super OP protagonist that uses his powers to get what he wants and to hell with the consequences, this story IS NOT for you. There are times when it should be obvious why, other's it's only implied. Either way, if you are expecting "shoot first ask questions later" mentality from the MC, regardless of how powerful he is, save yourself the disappointment and look elsewhere. I want to give a HUGE THANK YOU to all the readers and commenters of my story. It's all the positive feedback and comments that really give me the motivation to keep going. Honestly. It sounds cheesy, but it's true. So, again. Thank you!
