《The Ballads Of Akbar And Birbal》13• The Milky Lake 🏞🥛
Advertisement
Once when The King Akbar
Was very happy about something,
He said, "People respect me,
Birbal, what do you think?"
"Yes Jahapannah, they respect you
But also are they afraid,"
"How can you say that Birbal,
Do you know, what you just said?"
"Yes My Lord! I know that
People also fear you,
Akbar said, "Prove it then,
I'll see what you can do."
Birbal went and emptied
The royal lake that day,
And announced that, "King Akbar
Want everyone to pray...."
"...We need to pray for his long life
And to show our respect he said,
To put a pot of milk in the
The empty royal lake." He requested.
At night the people came
To submit a pot of milk there,
But in the morning the King found
Water flooding everywhere.
People thought that the water
Will disappear in the lake,
But it seemed they had the same plan
Which made the King shake.
Akbar was astonished but
He was not ready to accept,
So he made the same announcement
But a twist this time he kept.
He said, " This time King Akbar
I will have a look at it,
So now you will need to be sure
People grew careful a bit
The next morning milk filled
The gigantic royal lake,
And now the king Akbar
Had no excuses to make.
So he admitted the fact that
Birbal previously told,
And distributed the milk again
In every household.
So that's how 'The Clever Birbal'
Proved himself the smartest of all,
And with his great skills, he won
The hearts of the crowd in the hall.

Peerless Hegemon
Warning: Can be quite tearjerking and depressing (or so others say). If you are weak to that and hates that kind of thing, then this story is not for you === Ye Feng lived two lives in one lifetime. First, he basked in the light of Righteousness, becoming an idol of peace and justice. Second, he trod the mired path of the Darkest Path, becoming an object of fear and death. One lifetime, Two Identities, countless experiences, still without purpose. A meaningless existence. An empty husk. In his selfishness of wanting to fill the void in him, he became the catalyst that destroyed Reality. He now controlled everything, ultimate power, uncontestable by none. But he cast it away, to be reborn anew. With a new name and a family, his goal was to understand, his place. To understand how to no longer feel empty. With his family consisting of a Reincarnated Twin Sister and Parents with inscrutable pasts, his desire was not that of grandeur. In this lifetime, he wishes not to hold power, not to gain eternal life, nor control of everything, he only wishes to live, and hopefully look at sunrise with a smile on his face. === Disclaimer: The story focuses on the Main Character’s emotional and personality growth. He is someone who is, obviously OP in some perspectives but almost crippled in others. He is not soft and does not spare anyone because it is “Bad” so expect that there would be genocide and some bloody encounters. I want this instead of just the MC’s search for life and its complication. Where Philosophy and values exist. A story where every action has proper consequences, and not everything can be conquered with a single punch (unless it can be, no need for an unnecessary complication if it can be avoided). Further Notes: This is a story that will gradually increase in word counts and become Chunkier as it progresses and will almost never be below 2000 words, but if the word count will only lengthen the chapter at the expense of a finished tale, it could and would be cut off before 2000 mark), give it a try, it won’t disappoint (I hope). And if by chance that you like it, giving a good Rating and Review will be encouraging to me and possible readers. Schedule: Monday and Friday If you want to read ahead and/or support me to creating this story, you can do it through my Patreon (link below the next chapter button.) This is also a rewrite of this: Peerless Hegemon [OLD] | Royal Road

Beneath The Surface
Aika Robredo was a poster child: with a Masters from Harvard, a respectable career trajectory and dependable eldest daughter of the Robredo family. Everyone was telling Aika that all she had left to do was finding her 'dream guy' to settle down with until Nathaniel Lee came into the picture...with a young daughter and an ill-fated destiny with the Philippines in tow. The eldest daughter of the Philippines' most respected civil servant couple and a single father with a crippling emotional burden seemed like a total mismatch. In the face of adversities, was love really enough to overcome all?
