《Love Code at the End of the World》Book 3, Chapter 10 - Ripple (Compensation)
Advertisement
Harry’s hand began to shrink, resuming its normal shape and size. *Phew.* He blew on his fist handsomely, and asked smugly, “Aren’t I awesome?” His amber eyes were looking extremely clear under the sunlight and shimmering from the reflection of the snow as he said that.
I nodded in shock. He kept looking at me smugly for a while.
There was a sudden awkwardness between us, and we became quiet, blinking to look elsewhere. Harry saw Raffles and offered his hand to pull him up. “Why aren’t you on your feet yet?!”
Raffles came back to reality and took Harry’s hand. Harry clearly looked strong as he pulled Raffles up.
Raffles had already resumed his composure by now. To our surprise, he suddenly lifted his arm... and *Bang!* ...A snowball hit Harry’s face.
Harry was stunned, while Raffles was laughing hysterically, “Hahahaha… Hahahaha….”
Harry wiped away the snow from his face and Raffle became nervous.
“How dare you scheme against me?!” Harry shouted.
Raffles was terrified at Harry’s reaction, so he quickly ran away. He stumbled as he climbed up the snow ramp, but soon started running in the thick snow. While he was running, his long grayish-blue hair was swaying under the sunlight.
Harry quickly caught up with him, and the chase started... Harry launched his own attack on Raffles and he started throwing snowballs at him. Harry’s brown and curly hair was looking vibrant under the sunlight as it shone over our heads.
I suddenly realized that his hairstyle had changed, when I saw that he had braided his hair.
I subconsciously touched my braid too... My hair had grown longer as well.
*Bang!* A snowball hit me in the back of my neck, and sent chills down my spine. I turned around and demanded, “Who’s courting death?!”
I saw Arsenal holding a snowball in her hand and laughing at me.
I crossed my arms and... *Bang!* Someone threw a snowball at the back of my head from another direction. I immediately turned around. Who else wants to die?!

Sis Cannon chuckled and threw another snowball at me, “Captain, come and get me!”
Xiao Ying, Xue Gie and Ming You stood up one after another, holding a snowball each.
I rolled up my sleeves and pointed at them. “Just wait!”
And soon, a huge snowball fight had commenced!
Shortly into the snowball fight, the boys were teamed against the girls! In the end, Da Li lifted a human-sized snowball, leading to a huge win for the girls!
All glory to Da Li!
The snowfield was draped in silver linings. The ice sculptures were looking captivating under the moonlight, and the stars were shining like gemstones up in the starry night sky. It looked like the reflecting moonlight over the snow and the starlight in the sky were mirroring each other as they twinkled in the night.
The air outside was still cold, but no one was willing to leave their snow hut. They were all lying down together inside the igloo to appreciate the beautiful night sky.
Suddenly, there was an aurora!
It was like a colorful gauze floating above Noah City. It was a natural phenomena that was breathtakingly magical, and only God was capable of giving such beauty to this planet, and to us.
It was said that this magical scenery appeared only within these two days. Calamities had brought this world to its end, but at the same time, this extreme weather had also created the magical aurora.
While returning to the hostel zone, the guys and the girls were extremely quiet because we were going to part our ways the next morning—the DR team was leaving for Blue Shield City.
Bill was looking laden with anxiety, as he was worried for Xue Gie, despite the fact that Harry, their captain, was going to accompany us.
“Xiao Ying, you must be extremely careful!” Joey exhorted again, “Although Blue Shield City is a thriving city, it is very chaotic. Don’t speak to strangers and don’t leave our captain’s side, ever!”

“Don’t worry…” Sia was very calm. “Brother Bing would be there too. *Moo*.”
“Nonsense!” Joey kicked Sia, and Sia suddenly started floating upwards, unstoppably.
Joey looked back at Xiao Ying with concern.
Xiao Ying pouted and said, “Stop it! You are so annoying!” She looked away, and started ignoring Joey.
When Sis Cannon saw Joey’s worry for Xiao Ying, she turned to look at Khai. But Khai was looking extremely delighted and he was chatting with Moorim and Mosie cheerfully.
Sis Cannon was enraged due to this sight. She squinted her eyes and kicked Khai. “Why aren’t you worried about me?!”
Khai rubbed his butt and glared at Sis Cannon. “What’s there to be worried about when you behave like that?!”
Sis Cannon glared back at Khai and retorted, “Why? Do you want to come to my room tonight?!”
Khai’s body instantly went stiff at her question. He suddenly turned around and ran back to his room without stopping.l *Bang!* He slammed the door behind him.
*Hahaha.*
Everyone burst out into a fit of laughter at his reaction.
While this was going on, Joey was still nagging at Xiao Ying anxiously.
Sis Cannon stomped to Khai’s room and kicked his door open.
Everyone crossed their arms and watched as the show went on. Williams looked at Raffles with concern, he then pulled Harry to one side and exhorted in silence, “Captain, you must take good care of Raffles.”
Harry looked in disdain. “Go away, go away, go away!” Harry spat as he rubbed his arms.
Williams left feeling disheartened at Harry’s response. Even though he walked away, he kept turning back to look at Raffles.
As Raffles was using both of his brains to do some calculations and mumbling to himself, he failed to notice Williams’s lingering gaze. And he was lucky that he didn’t see it because Williams was looking quite pitiful.
Moorim and Mosie were worried too. They looked at us and said, “Princess Arsenal is not going, right?”
Harry couldn’t be bothered with all these worried people at that moment. “Don’t worry. Luo Bing and I are going to be there.”
After hearing Harry’s answer, Moorim and Mosie looked at me with pleading eyes and bowed at me solemnly. “Brother Bing! Princess Arsenal is in your hands. Since our captain is not reliable, you have to take good care of Princess Arsenal.”
“What do you mean?!” Harry looked pissed as he stared at them. “How can you think that your captain is unreliable?!”
Mosie and Moorim exchanged a glance and ran away.
“B*stards! Come back and explain yourselves!”
But Mosie and Moorim were already out of Harry’s sight.
“So annoying!” Xiao Ying was still complaining, and Joey was still following her everywhere.
“Khai, open the door for me!” Sis Cannon was roaring on the other side of this chaos.
The day before departure had suddenly turned noisy.
I looked at Harry and said, “See you tomorrow.”
“Mm, see you tomorrow.” Harry was acting shy that day, as he turned elsewhere when replying to me.
I looked at Raffles and he was still muttering to himself. “Raffles, see you tomorrow.” Somehow, my heart started racing when I spoke to Raffles, and I blushed slightly as I accidently recalled kissing him on his cheek.
That episode from the morning was suddenly making me feel embarrassed in front of him. Although, we both were pretending like nothing had happened earlier to avoid feeling awkward in front of each other, that accidental kiss had been like a comet that had zoomed across the night sky, leaving a blazing trail in our hearts; or like a breeze that had stirred ripples in our hearts.

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.)

Divine Intervention Online
Vin is an ex-slave who wields sacred knowledge to demand freedom for his people. Seth is a reluctant player stuck in a game that is set to last 200 more years. When their paths converge, even the false gods will take notice. * * * Hello and thank you for giving Divine Intervention Online a chance. This is not my first book (that honor belongs to The Flock by Chris Sauter- available on Amazon). This is hopefully going to become my second book, the first of a planned LITRPG trilogy. This is a labor of love, dedicated to my absolute obsession with the LITRPG genre that has held me in its grasp for over 3 years. There will be dark situations that perhaps only adults should read including: slavery, violence and the results of war. There will be no harems, little profanity, but possibly some triggers for people who don’t like torture, violence, and other dark stuff.
