Chapter 40: An Unspeakable Secret (1)
“Your name,” Su Chen demanded from the female Harpy.
“Flowing Flame Oriole,” the female Harpy replied obediently, her eyes filled with fear.
It was impossible for her not to be afraid. She was filled with hatred for Su Chen in the beginning, but after all of the experiments that had taken place, all of the Harpy female’s anger, hatred, and arrogance had turned into fear.
Even the most severe punishment probably wouldn’t have caused her to feel such fear, but Su Chen’s repeated experimentation had managed to do so.
It wasn’t because of the suffering itself, but because of Su Chen’s attitude towards life.
In the eyes of a researcher, all of this served as motivation for progress, but in the eyes of Flowing Flame Oriole, this dissection of life down to the bone was even more frightening than the cruelest torture. In Su Chen’s hands, life lost its meaning. The Harpies were like useless sacks of meat that were labeled and divided by functionality.

Ogre Tyrant
Tim wakes up to find he is naked and alone in a fantasy world. However, he is not as alone as he first thought. There are other people running around all over the place fighting monsters for a living. Unfortunately for Tim, he seems to be one of those monsters. Desperate for any degree of safety and normalcy he can find, Tim must tread a fine line between freedom and subservience to survive. All while trying to keep alive a trio of adventurers hellbent on becoming legends. However, unfortunately for Tim, he is not the only one from earth to awaken in this world and the other Awakened aren't nearly so benevolent. Warning: The protagonist begins the story quite cowed and meek but progresses into a more assertive and situationally dominant personality. This is partly due to growth, but also a result of the character overcoming initial shock and longstanding depression. If you think I could have handled a segment better, by all means, point it out and provide your reasoning and suggestion. Everyone's experience of depression is different, and Tim's is a close representation of my own, so it won't necessarily 'vibe' with everyone. Chapters are around 15k words and released approx 1/week over the weekend. Has been reduced to around 7.5k to 9k to better fit my schedule.[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
