Awakening Of The Ancient: Rise Of The Fallen Chapter 16
Advertisement
"Master War God? He's absolutely amazing!!! He's the idol of most of the people of this realm. It had been said that throughout the years of fighting with the demon realm, he had never been defeated in a battle. He's the master of war strategy. As an added bonus, he is an astonishing musician. In fact, he is considered the best musician in this realm, but for some strange reason, he rarely plays his music. " Mengchan said as she stood up excitedly. It was as if she was talking about someone she absolutely adored.
"Really? So you're a fan of his?" Xu Liang said with an amused smile on his face.
"Has he married in recent years when I was sleeping?" Xu Liang asked as he remembered that War God Zhen was single when Xu Liang went into a coma.
People had always wondered as to why War God Zhen never chose a girl to marry. There were many heavenly beauties in the heavenly realm that liked him, but he never expressed any interest in having a relationship.
Xu Liang wanted to know what had happened to people he cared about throughout the years of his coma.
Xu Liang wondered if War God Zhen's single status had changed somehow throughout the years. He considered War God Zhen as a family.
War God Zhen had taught Xu Liang whenever he got an opportunity. He happily shared his knowledge and skills. Xu Liang had learned many war strategies from War God Zhen. Before going into the coma, Xu Liang has already considered War God Zhen as a loving uncle, though he never shared his feelings
"Master War God is still single, but there's a rumor going around the city that he's seeing someone," Mengchan said in a whisper.

"Oh, interesting. I will ask him about it" Xu Liang said as he smiled.
Xu Liang talked more with Mengchan as he asked her about the people that he had known about from his memories. Mengchan answered honestly as she told him all she knew.
"Thanks for all the information." Xu Liang said with a smile.
"Goodnight now. If you get tired at night, you can go to your room and sleep. I'll talk with Father even if he finds out about it." Xu Liang said softly as he lay on the bed and closed his eyes. He turned sideways as he covered his head with a blanket.
Soon he too fell asleep.

Morning came and the cold city finally gained some warmth.
Xu Liang slowly opened his eyes as he woke up from his sleep.
He looked around the room as a disappointed expression appeared on his face.
"So I was dreaming about being home." Xu Liang shook his head lightly.
He took the cover off his body as he sat up. He moved to the corner of the bed and placed his feet on the ground that was cold to the touch. He was bare-chested and only wore pants.
He stood up and walked to the mirror that was located in the corner of the room.
Xu Liang hesitated for a moment as he reached near the mirror. After a brief second, he finally took a step forward and stood in front of the mirror.
"So unfamiliar yet I can see the similarities." Xu Liang muttered as he looked at his face in the mirror.
He had no idea what he looked like in this new world as although there was a mirror in this room, the previous Xu Liang had never seen his reflection in the mirror as he never cared for such things. This was Xu Liang's first time seeing himself in this world.

Xu Liang knew that he was 24 years old in this world as it had been 19 years since he was taken out of that dark World by Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu. He was supposed to be 5 years old at that time by Heavenly Emperor Tian Zhu's assumption.
As he caught his reflection in the mirror, he couldn't believe that he was 24. He seemed like he was barely 20 years old right now.
Previously, he considered War God Zhen as the most handsome man that he had witnessed, but as he saw his reflection, he realized that he looked somewhat better. His jade-like complexion, paired with his long and shiny black hair made him have a unique charm of his own.
Although Xu Liang looked younger than his assumed age, he didn't look immature at all. He was rather tall with a height of nearly 6 feet. He had an athletic build with well-toned muscles.
He had the same deep blue eyes that he possessed in his previous world.
Xu Liang lightly shook his head as he turned back.
"Huh, so she decided to take my advice. Good for her." A smile appeared on his face as he saw the empty seat where Mengchan was sitting last night.
Xu Liang was about to walk back to the bed when the door opened.
"I brought food," Mengchan said as she opened the door and barged inside.
Xu Liang turned back to face her with slight shock.
"You know Mengchan, You should really knock when you enter someone's room. What would've happened if I was changing clothes right now." Xu Liang said with a wry smile on his face.
"I... I apologize master. It was just that you were in a coma for so long, I developed a habit of entering without knocking. I'll reflect on my mistakes and won't repeat them in the future." Mengchan said with an earnest expression on her face.
'Though I wouldn't mind seeing the young master naked' She secretly thought as a grin appeared on her face.
"Why did you bring my breakfast here? If I remember correctly, I used to eat with the Royal Father and Yue. Do we not do that anymore?"
Xu Liang sat on the edge of his bed as he asked.
"Young Princess and His Majesty continued the tradition of eating together. It's just that Princess Yue said that she won't eat today as she is not hungry. His Majesty also had to go out to handle some important affair.
"Oh, bring my breakfast to her room. I'll go talk to her." Xu Liang said as he stood up and walked towards the door.
He suddenly remembered something as he felt the cold air on his bare chest. He abruptly turned back.
"You take the food there first, I'll be there after getting dressed."
Xu Liang walked to his wardrobe.
"Oh, by the way, she still stays in the same room right?" Xu Liang stopped as he asked Mengchan who was walking towards the door.
"Yes, master." Mengchan nodded her head.
"Alright, you can go now."

Hy'Ruh-Ha is a what I consider a chronicle fantasy. It is a fantasy drama coming of age story inspired by slice-of-life stories I've read and watched. It is heavy on the slice-of-life and does move slow. It is low-stakes fantasy.

However, a ghost from his past comes to haunt him and could ruin the life he's made completely. Note: Wolf is a bit of a character piece. POV character is Oeric.

A New Beginning
Humans don't understand how someone can be both dead and alive, and that fact scares them, it opens up the possibility of a threat even if there is no evidence of malevolent intent. So, the only solution in the minds of humanity is to dominate and subjugate the unknown variable until it no longer has even the potential to be a threat. They choose to pretend that the unknown variable is lesser, that humanity is superior on no other grounds than that it's humanity. Danny had been stuck with the G.I.W for years when the Young Justice team rescued him. Broken, beaten, and none the wiser of the greater majority of humans, the humans with kindness in their eyes and light in their souls. He's been trapped in the darkness of greed and fear and violence for far too long, and what's left behind is a fractured mind and a trained weapon. Buried underneath that, however, is a young child who is scared and confused, a child that hasn't seen the light of day in years. That child never expected to see the bright side to existence, to see the light shine in the souls of the righteous. That all changed with one group of heroes, and one family of Bats.Cover doesn't belong to me.Cross-published on two other sites*Undergoing heavy editing, nothing plot-wise is changing, I am only editing grammar, mechanics, vocabulary, sentence variation, and formatting and overall I am just making it a more pleasant and refined read :) I am also deleting the A/Ns at the beginning and end of each chapter
