《Tales of The Celestial Prince》Mommy Day IX Aurora's Auction V
Advertisement
"Of course, I have more than that but unfortunately I'm still unable to spend the majority of it due to the currency exchange and rules and regulations preventing the flood of stockpiled currencies"
"And Lady Aurora had long since ended our rivalry of wealth with her being the clear winner, why do you think The Celestials use gold and precious materials as construction materials?"
"If they flooded the markets with it the economy would be nonexistent so keep that in mind sister, me spending mere five hundred thousand platinum to buy such an insignificant island is nothing"
"However I'll start collecting my assets and preparing my greater race soon enough so I'll need them, give me a year and this insignificant island will be a mini continent of the gods"
Vania adorably shrugged having wanted to make it a lesson since she felt it was something he needed being in Aurora's Auction House in all.
All of which came off as strangely supportive causing the young prince to then happily nod supporting Vania's current goals and good deeds up until finally Vania remembered a certain matter.
"Right as my precious sister you should know something, I stopped the slave trade supported by The Snow Elves, and I may have made one of their lesser princesses my consort after visiting as a forgotten Snow Elf Princess.."
"I enjoyed her slowly and even more so after discovering she was indeed responsible for that indentured servant nonsense?"
"Snow Elves are truly yummy, she'll be my favorite consort yet, however after 'fixing' her prejudice and ensuring she remains the same only without such talks of that slavery nonsense, I suppose I'll give her the same choice as the others?"
"As long as she visits me to relieve my 'frustration' and doesn't get married I wouldn't mind even if she had a child in the future, I don't force anyone to be my consorts after all? They do have a choice even if my wording suggests the opposite, this is simply how I speak so sister shouldn't judge me"
Vinia adorably teased having successfully seduced the snow elf princess responsible for that nonsense.
And reformed her only in the aspect of simply choosing another career outside of slavery before then finally convincing if not seducing her to become her consort resulting in Vinia feeling quite proud of herself.
She didn't even need to do much since despite appearances the snow elf princess in question liked girls and if she hadn't that clearly wouldn't have worked.
And after being reformed embraced it quite well while accepting the cute title of consort causing the young prince having had not understood half of it to then adorably nod since she made new friends!
And ended a large percentage of both the slave trade and underground criminal elements while doing so meaning he was quite proud of Vinia.
Resulting in him erecting a soundless barrier explaining her sisters be it Ravinia, Vina, and the others along with her plans.
Causing Vania having similar fans to then adorably nod not truly caring to involve herself and preferring to remain how she usually was?
She simply found it entertaining and nothing more. It was as if she had given birth without knowing and simply shrugged.

Did they become the first monster on Divinus? Did they seduce and make a snow elf princess their consort? No? Then there wasn't anything of note and they simply were her haphazard estranged descendants and nothing more.
Resulting in after the adorable antics and talk with Vania the young prince adorably sighed before then feeling a vibration from the insignia mommy Klarine had given to him surprising him before then adorably taking a seat and switching to Aurea.
And Elyris to then adorably take a seat next to him since she was simply curious until finally, Aurea answered it revealing Klarine in a black lingerie-like nightgown.
With a sleeping Ophelia clinging to her hip in bed as if she had just woken up causing Klarine to then yawn.
"It seems my precious celestial 'treat' had stumbled upon my inheritance? You're truly a tasty treat, but I suppose it's far too early for such things? For all intents and purposes, I would've never imagined my tasty treat would be so eager and activate my inheritance at such an age?"
"The memories themselves alone were quite a treat, however, a treat that hadn't had time to finish baking and instead left out years earlier, I trust my Aurea knows how delicate such an inheritance was?"
"But to think you'd instead appear fine is quite the predicament! One moment my hair is a mess.."
Klarine effortlessly teased before then taking the time to fix her hair causing Aurea to then admire mother Klarine's effortless elegance, simply by fixing her hair and looking into a mirror.
She was simply gorgeous in all regards and could do quite literally anything and Aurea wouldn't change her mind.
Causing Klarine after noticing this to then simply smile.
"To think my tasty treat would become more of a Serpentess than consort? I suppose it was natural since Aurea looked up to her favorite Serpentess? I suppose I should also inform you I've already arranged for your title as an Imperial Princess and Prince since even if it was in a dreamlike state my tasty treat had already met all the qualifications"
"So for all intents and purposes, Aurea is my sweet Imperial Princess while my special treat is already an Imperial Prince of The Ophidian Empire and 'my' future consort?
"Coronations are simple affairs but at most, mere formalities, you have already been given the rights and authority so I suppose only little would change after such formalities? Now I also suppose you should return to the auction? But before that.."
Klarine playfully explained before then both carefully and gently cradling Ophelia effortlessly so Aurea got her chance to see her causing her to then adorably smile before then reverting back to Aurel and giggling his heart out.
After the adorable antics and the sleepy pouts from Ophelia, Klarine had returned to sleep and both the young prince and Elyris returned to Aldra's lap, soon enough however the young prince's chosen to 'set', for Vania had finally appeared at last.
And after spending thirty thousand ethereal gold using Aurora's card as he had done previously he had asked Lady Shade to deliver it to New Senex and help Vania to pick up her hidden assets that hadn't been found.
Surprising Vania having gotten back quite a bit especially her castle?

All the while back with the young prince after the last display Lady Lu allowed her Inari assistant to take over for her while she felt it was time to finally meet the only other brown-tailed Inari she had heard of being in the capital.
Soon enough she found her chance.
Elyris had wanted to meet her as well so after paying her respects both, her and Elyris spoke on the far end of the couch covered in a soundless barrier.
Causing the young prince to then adorably pout and Aldra to then gently kiss his forehead while lovingly hugging him even tighter.
Blissfully soothing her sweetest prince resulting in him ultimately turning around and hugging his mommy until finally he simply fell asleep..
Causing Aldra to then gently cradle her baby prince while both Jade and Mora helplessly paused since he had asked them to handle the rest causing Mora to then adorably sigh.
Before then finally appearing first in her fairy and finally her normal humanoid form surprising everyone and causing Mora to then adorably pout herself.
"No questions! I'm my bestie's secret! Before going asleep he asked me to watch over the auction since I know his taste best.. thinking of taste I always wanted to meet you!"
"So gorgeous and refined, you're really as perfect as he says! And I'm a fairy so I'd know these things! If you don't believe me I'll bet my wings!"
Mora honestly whispered while carefully sitting next to Aldra as not to disturb her bestie all the while looking back and forth between her and the auction.
Causing Aldra having realized who she was through that special fairy incident where her sweet prince unknowingly robbed a fairy to then gently giggle her heart out not being able to hold it in.
While Gemma softly giggled herself since it was, in fact, a rare sight to see her react in such a way causing Aldra after finally calming down to then playfully smile before then erecting a soundless barrier.
"You're indeed precious Lady Mora, my sweetest Aurel had already informed me of such things so you needn't worry. I'd imagine I keep secrets 'fairly' well, so unless my sweet Aurel says otherwise I'll keep it"
Aldra gently teased before then offering a space even closer so she could play with her sleeping baby prince or as Lady Mora called him, bestie.
Resulting in her doing just that since she never really had a chance before outside of Dreamworlds!
However, they were still at the Auction so she had to find the best items she could for her bestie! Soon enough all the displays were in place and it was even more than before?!
Was this wholesale or something or did they hit a recession or simply wanted more platinum?!
Causing Lady Mora to then pause having only ever been educated by Jade and some of her memories and now that the attendants have been called back and the soundless barrier had been removed now was her chance to speak her mind.
"I'm broke and I don't even have a slither of bronze in my name but, I still believe it's odd to send all this to an auction?! I might just be a poor fairy with a 'borrowed' card from my bestie but isn't most of these overpriced to begin with?!"
"The continent of the gods is already massive so why are they being so stingy with these small palaces and manors with only five kilometers of land? That mini sky 'castle' is definitely just a sky hold pretending to be one! You can't trick this fairy!"
"And why would a bronze statue made by an artisan be worth that much?! You can't scam this fairy! Only this fairy can scam you! Thinking of scamming if these people would buy low-quality artisan scraps.."
Mora adorably ranted having actually become an artisan since in truth she was a broke fairy and didn't want to ask anyone for money!
She had her own pride! So much so that she crafted artisan-grade potions, armor sets with matching swords, sword sheaths, staffs, mage spears, silverware, and jewelry.
And even everything else Jade taught her within her timeless space and since she even watched those lessons with Lady Frostma she became an amazing Artisan since!
All the while watching over her bestie and playing with Jade she had indeed needed a dedicated hobby as any fairy should!
Resulting in her sending Aurora a wave of mental messages to put something in the next segment.
Surprising Aurora having not known the magic incarnation she made for her holy prince had actually become a real fairy somehow?!
However, she didn't question it since it was mentioned that she was a secret and she didn't want to take that away from her favorite holy prince.
And after giving sending an attendant to pick up the twenty or so ethereal golden space rings of all things for the next segment.
While Aurora simply agreed not to take the entree fee since as Mora mentioned it.. she doesn't even have a single bronze in her name meaning Aurora simply couldn't stand by this injustice and supported such righteous causes!
She was even happier since some of her personality traits remained in Mora.
However, this segment wasn't even finished meaning Mora had to pick stuff for her bestie!
So far there were twenty artisan grade mage legions with ten thousand Archmage Mage Puppets per legion and fully equipped in artisan grade gear and placed in two per set.
Eight even larger fleets amounting to three hundred multi-use warships per fleet.
Sixteen skyholds moderately armored and armed thrown into four per set, fourteen surplus sky castles two per set, eight sky towers also two per set, and four mage towers with ten kilometers of land.
Five Palaces with seven kilometers of land, twenty kilometers of empty land, and thirteen mines with three kilometers of land each.
Three small businesses with many franchises be it from inns, shops, and construction, and quite a bit of other things as well such as statues, silverware, vases, and paintings.
Or anything else really however they were typically thrown into sets as well.
In any case, all of this was simply overwhelming and targeted everyone so chances are everyone would at least get several things they truly wanted be it for their kingdoms, families, trade federations, or anyone really.

Cybernetic Dragon
Idea Seven, or Inter Dimensional Explorer Automaton Unit-7, has had a bit of an accident. Hijacking the egg of a dragon rather than its intended target of a bird egg, it isn't fully in control of its host brain. Rather the two, dragon and cybernetic AI interface, must work together to survive in a hostile world of magic, dungeons, beasts and adventurers. The AI must deal with being a machine from a world of science trying to carry out its mission of exploration, while the dragon, Rex, must deal with being a cyborg living with symbiotic nanotech that sets him apart from other dragons. What adventures await them? Author Note: I tagged this story GameLit because it contains concepts like levels, classes, and dungeon/beast cores. But, it isn't tagged LitRPG because no one has status screens, other than occasionally Idea Seven who likes to organize data into blue boxes. It isn't a natural function of the world to display level ups or skill ups with an announcer voice. I mention this to set expectations, because otherwise I feel like LitRPG fans might be disappointed by my lack of LitRPG elements while others might be turned off thinking I have a lot of LitRPG elements. I think that if you approach the story with an open mind you will appreciate the gradual way in which the main character learns and expands his understanding of how the world works, but the game mechanics aren't meant to take center stage to the actual story.

Thomas the Brawler
Thomas doesn't remember what his last name was, before it became Bluebrim, a name belonging to another universe. He's also pretty sure he wasn't this stupid before he arrived, but what can you do, when a day that was supposed to begin with an interview to set your life back on track instead begins in a universe that makes no sense, with rules you can't begin to understand? Maybe he should have paid more attention to the avatar creation screen ... Content warnings: All of them. Seriously. Expect lots of blue screens to begin with. Don't expect a power-leveling fantasy, in which the lone hero beats up all the bad guys, and gets a harem of women. There's just a guy who treats character creation like an annoying series of pop-up advertisements, and the story is basically the ramifications of that. The main character has to learn to take the world he's found himself in seriously, and he'll learn the way most of us do, by doing it wrong first. This is, insofar as it is successful, a dark comedy fantasy. Also a bit of horror, particularly but not exclusively body horror. I'm pretty sure I've earned those Content Warning tags, so, uh, yeah. This is practice. Hopefully things improve as I go, and figure out what I'm doing wrong, but I make no guarantees things will ever get better. I've already made mistakes, I'll make more, and I'm happy to notice them each time I make them. You don't improve unless you fail. (On the plus side, it probably won't get much worse.) Feel free to point out anything you think I'm doing wrong; I don't promise to change anything, particularly if it's a matter of taste, but I am looking to improve, and figuring out what I need to improve goes faster if I don't have to try to figure it out myself. I've updated the earlier chapters for formatting, in the hope that it would make everything easier to read on mobile devices. Hopefully things work slightly better now, but please let me know if there are any issues anywhere.
