《Her Five Protectors》EIGHT

"What do you think you are saying, Vincenzo?" Alexander breaks the silence first.
"The DNA matched that's what we are going to tell the others! We are going to keep her here until we get Ariana back. We will introduce this girl as Ariana." Vincenzo states calmly.
"You can't do this, Vincenzo! We can't use her like this. Let the poor girl get back to her home." Luciano tries to say but Vincenzo cuts him off.
"This girl you are talking about is someone who ran away from her own family." Vincenzo tells him.
"That's what our Ariana has done!" Romeo sighs.
"Yes. Ariana has done this for her own selfish reasons. But this girl Athena has different case. I have find out almost every thing about her. From since the time she turned 3 years old, her existence turned non-existent. Because her foster parents never allowed her to step out of the house and miraculously she decided to runaway just a week ago. The police found her and identified her as missing Ariana because nobody really had seen Athena in the real world. Their facial features are strikingly identical just like twins. Surprisingly Athena is a little smart despite she hasn't gotten any kind of knowledge in her brain, she chose to runaway from them too but got caught in accident. They again got to grab her but she again runaway and nobody really had seen her for next three days until our men found her walking on the road and she was taken here." Vincenzo explains answering every questions of his brothers.
"It pretty much explains why Ari- I mean Athena was so reluctant to leave. She didn't wanted to come here at the first place. The poor girl has endured so much in past and now you want to use her like this. This is wrong Vincenzo!" Luciano tells him with a heavy sigh.

"I don't care what is right or wrong at the moment now. We can't just send her out of here now! The news has been already out." Vincenzo states the fact.
"Don't tell me that Grace had a press conference to announce this news?" Alexander asks suspiciously. He groans when Vincenzo nods his head and says.
"It's again beneficial to us. Ariana will probably see this news and maybe she will decide to come out from hiding!"
"It took us just a little time to get suspicious that she is not Ariana! How do you think the people will believe that stupid dumbass girl is Ariana?" Vittorio finally breaks his icey silence.
"A little lie will work here. She lost her all memories in the accident she met at the time she was about to be taken here." Others nods at Vincenzo's words looking careless about the whole situation but Luciano still looks worried.
"What about her foster family?" Alexander asks.
"I have already handled them. But make sure one thing that Athena doesn't know that we know that she is not Ariana!"
Athena looks at the walls of Ariana's room. Only thought that is ringing in her mind is to leave this huge house. She isn't the person these people are thinking her as. She just wants to escape out of this horrible situation.
Athena is called in the dining room at the dinner time. She takes her seat silently and fiddles with her fingers. Vittorio enters first. He smirks upon seeing her looking lost in thought. He takes a seat right beside her.
"Hello Ariana!" He grins as she jumps a little in surprise and looks at him with wide eyes and then notices that he is sitting beside her today.

"You know what it is today?" He asks her. Athena slightly shakes her head. She immediately start to feel nervous when he raises his brow at her. His smile just wiped away from his face.
"You seriously don't remember what is it today?" Athena audibly gulps and anxiously scratches her palm with her nails.
"How can you fucking forget this?" He asks her fake angrily internally enjoying the sight of unshed tears in her eyes.
"I feel like that you are not even Ariana!" Her lips slightly trembles in fear and she swallows the huge lump down her throat.
"What's happening here?" Luciano's voice asks. His eyes met her teary eyes and for some reason he feels his heart clench.
"Luciano! Look here Ariana forget that it is Saturday night. She waits for weekend night the whole week to go out to parties with her group of bestfriends!" Vittorio says with a playfulness evident in his eyes. Athena avoids looking at him.
"She is not allowed to go out from now. I think your brain is not working here right. You forget that she is grounded." Out of nowhere Romeo approaches for her rescue. His words eases a little weight from her shoulders. She has zero idea about Ariana's bestfriends and even worse about Ariana herself.
Vittorio glares at his twin. Ignoring him, Romeo just share a small smile with Athena who is finally able to breathe properly.

An Unwavering Craftsman
Given the hereditary nature of classes, everyone expects Damien—the child of two high-tiered adventurers—to be granted a high-tier combat class of his own. Expectations are betrayed, however, when Damien finds himself instead saddled with a crafting class of the lowest possible tier: [Neophyte Tailor]. Left practically crippled compared to those with better classes, Damien wants to avoid becoming a pawn in the machinations of the nobility, desiring only to grind his level in peace while wondering why the usual rules of inheritance were broken. Was it his desire to excel by his own effort, rather than an unearned blessing from a god? Did the Five take offence at his opinions on the unfairness of hereditary classes? Or maybe it was something to do with the alien voice that intruded on his ceremony? A voice that offers great power, and freedom from the tyranny of the Five, but that never names its price. This story is litRPG-lite. While the class someone possesses controls most of their lives, people don't get dinged at for every level they gain, nor can they see their status without undergoing a special ritual. The MC has no romantic interest. Crafting is merely a way to game the system, and doesn't feature heavily in the story, aside from a few descriptions on how they're carrying out the system abuse. There is, on one unfortunate occasion, maths. The pace is quick. This was a participant in the Spring 2022 writathon. (i.e. it was posted as-written at high speed. I may give it another editing pass in the future.)

The Fabled Islands
Somewhere out there, in the great expanse of space and time, exist the Fabled Islands. Nobody knows how or why they exist, but only that it is a strange and special place that operates under laws separate from the universe. The Fabled Islands are made up of vast floating continents. They vary in size, with some ranging from the surface area of a small planet, to a star. If you look at them from afar, you would find that they are placed in a line. Each island is separated by a vast amount of space, so there is only one way to travel from one island to the next; a gateway on the edge of the island. Each island is governed by strange rules. The only thing they share in common, is that the rules are governed by the System. The rules change vastly from one island to the next, so you must quickly adapt. Tristan was raised on the first island, Fertility Island, and has finally been allowed to become a Brave; a respected profession throughout the islands. Fertility Island is a peaceful island. There are hardly any monsters, the land is fertile, and the people kind. This is the complete opposite of what Tristan wants. Bring on the monsters! Bring on the magical items! I want adventure, loot, and to put my life on the line! Where are the dungeons, caverns, and mountains to be explored? Where is the mythical equipment to be found? The next island? Then the next island I will go! His adventure begins now.
