When she left the capital city, she was fat, chubby and white in everybody's eyes. When she returned to the capital city, she was perfect; a goddess in everybody's eyes.
A reporter once asked her: What do you think is most important for a woman?She simply smiled and answered: The most important thing is to be good to ourselves.When a person has a crush, other than the person himself, no one will know.
From the same author of To be A Virtuous Wife and More Than a Few Blessings so decided to try this. At first I was thrown off by the MC's name cos it keeps reminding me of Ning Xi of Hidden Marriage so I can't help but compare them. Our MC seems like a pure white lotus but she's very vicious and playful when she revenges. ML is very supportive of MC but he isn't overbearing like LTX, but more like a warm husband. MC seems to be everything good, good looks, great acting skills, (a golden thigh. lol) but she also has a tragic past and her whole purpose for coming back seems to be for revenge. ML is a happy accident and she was moved by his confession so she agreed to be with him. As usual in entertainment circle novels, there are schemes, pouring of dirty water, blackening on weibo etc. Of course, the faceslapping is also there. My favorite part is ML wholeheartedly trusting MC, even when others tried to destroy their feelings and he was abused of wearing a green hat, he chose to show his trust to MC by proposing marriage. Overall, this was somewhat cliche but a good short read. If there were some side CPs, I would've liked it more maybe~

The Grandmaster of Magic and Alchemy[Discontinue- Rewritten Version will be up soon]
Do you believe in reincarnation? Well, I don't. Why? Because to reincarnate, you must die first. But then, if you didn't die but just suddenly vanished and replace someone else's life? What does this call? This is the story of a woman who lives for so long that she had wished she could just die already, only to mistake the spell [Soul Incarnation] as a spell that could kill her. Instead, her soul and memory were sent into another world that looked down on the weak and the strong walk toward the path of righteous. Her name... is... was... called Megie, the Immortal Grandmaster Magician of Kingdom of Magic. And now, her soul is in the body of a girl who accidentally poisoned herself to death. Her name is called Jenna Loveheart. Now... what will you do, Megie? No, Jenna?

Post War Rules
Life on Torus Terminal is usually fast paced, but simple. A frontier Terminal has little room for easy living, but the great, circular station does boast shopping and culinary experiences from many Imperial races and cultures. Any star is, by its nature, extremely far from its neighbors. But laser highways, and the great shimmering sails of the light-rider spaceships make the trip into only about ten years. Still, the denizens of Torus Terminal eagerly await the day when the Anti-Euclidean Engine their station is built around finally comes online. Once that is done, they will have unfettered access to the entire Empire. Instantaneous travel and trade across hundreds of stars. Torus Terminal does boast one other oddity: a creature which calls itself Human. As he says, the last of his kind for now. He has made quite the life for himself on Torus Terminal, especially in the darker corners of the station. The elites of Torus Terminal praise his name, for once he took up arms, crime began to fall. What they did not realize was that was because he had claimed the seedy underbelly of Torus Terminal for himself and his own goals. The elites praise him as a paragon of law. The criminals fear him as a ruthlessly clever crime boss. Those closest to him, know him as the General. This story was originally posted on the Humanity Fuck Yeah subreddit, where it evolved from a simple play on a historical figure in a science fiction setting into a full blown space opera. I kind of took it as an opportunity to explore a setting I've had rolling around in my head for years. I also decided that it would be nice to have it in a place where I could more easily come back and edit it later, so I'm reposting it here. Here's a link to the original posting if you're interested: https://www.reddit.com/r/HFY/comments/e9cwpl/post_war_rules/ If my genre and tagging is subpar, let me know. I'm still new to Royal Road and I'm open to help. Feel free to comment and make suggestions, or discuss. I love comments, and so long as we keep things civil I also love criticism.

Really compelling at times, wow, can't wait to see what happens in the next part." -Princess Unikitty, Fanfiction.net "You've successfully found that perfect tone where you can have such outrageous and insane things like xenomorphs fighting witches and bondage wearing warrior women on an Illuminati space ship traveling through the multiverse and still have me care about the characters in your story." -Lucantius, Fanfiction.net When a Great Old One is mortally wounded, he summons warriors from a multitude of worlds to do battle with each other so their anger will strengthen him.

The Descarrian Abyss: Level One
[2/6/20 : Major rewrites and restrucuring for Chapters 1-4]Framed for the murder of his landlady, sixteen year old Arahn Keys has been sentenced to death. A last minute reprieve comes in the form of the slightly mad cartographer Calan’dal, who hires him and four other death row inmates as bodyguards for his dangerous expedition into the bowls of a labyrinthine dungeon known as the Descarrian Abyss. Should they succeed in helping the deranged elf reach his goal, the legendary Heart of the Abyss, Arahn and his fellow criminals will be free to go. Alongside his new elven master Arahn is joined by Morvar: a half-troll brute, Cathran: a young herbalist’s apprentice who professes her innocence, and Evan and Lem: a pair of thieving goblin twins. Together they descend into the Abyss, knowing they will have to work together or else perish in the bowels of the dark labyrinth, becoming victims of the deadly traps and ferocious creature’s legend to reside within. [This is an early draft. Looking for feedback on characters/story as I work on my ideas.]
