Lady Boss, Please Spoil Your Husband! Chapter 150
Advertisement
Ming Ting sat on her swiveled chair crossed legged, her chin rested on her palm as she observed the huge monitor displaying a map with a blinking red dot.
Her long, blue-painted nails drummed on her wooden desk in utter boredom.
Suddenly, the red dot disappeared from her sight, causing Ming Ting to jolt on her seat, stunned.
"What?" She muttered in disbelief. Grabbing the mouse, she zoomed the map out and still she did not see the blaring red dot.
"They find it out, huh..." Ming Ting smirked, amused. "Quite rare for someone to notice my mark. Who are these people anyway?" She said and turned to face a man with red mask.
She Gu, or Vermillion Dragon sat at the corner. Though he may seem calm, but his guard is complete up as the person he is with is non other than the best tracker in the Underworld, Azure Tortoise.
Ming Ting's face was hidden by an eerie, azure mask. Azure Tortoise's mask was a sight to be frightened.
Showing fang-baring, grinning tortoise that seem to penetrate everyone's soul. [1]
"Lillie Bai and Ethan Li are two prominent figures in the Elite Society. Their families belong to a noble lineage that traces back far from our current time." She Gu's voice was masked by an equipment that helped sound like the real Vermillion Dragon.
"Any affiliations with the Underworld?"
"Believe it or not, the two of them are quite clean." Of course She Gu would not know that Lillie have connections with the Underworld; She Lei made sure of that.
Azure Tortoise hummed. "Though I cannot understand why you are so infatuated by them." She mused thoughtfully. "Is it for their wealth? Power?"
"It's for revenge." She Gu replied in half-truth.

"Hooh~ And what did this little couple do to make the great Vermillion Dragon seek vengeance on them?" Her voice slurred in bold mockery.
Hidden by the mask, She Gu gritted his teeth in anger. How dare this woman make fun of him?!
"It's non of your business." He growled. "We have a mutual agreement. In exchange for your service, I will give you what you wish for."
"Fufufu~ and what made you think you can grant my wish?" Azure Tortoise challenged, titling her head.
Fortunately She Gu was wearing a mask, if Azure Tortoise saw his sweat covered forehead, she'll swallow him whole.
"You want Ethan Li. If you help me take down Lillie Bai, that boy is yours to play with."
"You tried taking them down before, why do you seem so assured that you can succeed this time?"
"It's because I do not want to waste precious sources." He nonchalantly replied.
"Care to share?"
She Gu harrumphed "I have connections with the Rosenguard Clan. Surely they wouldn't mind me asking a small favor." Arrogance dripped from his words.
Azure Tortoise's ears perked. Now this is an interesting news.
"I'm listening."

Nero Zero
Monsters plagued the lands for too long. No matter if one had fangs, beak, teeth, skin, fur, or feather, or was tall, stout, or diminutive, the people suffered. Until the Gadgeteers came with a device that could allow people to fight back. Powered by one's own magical power, feeding off of monster Essence, the Arbitrium bracer turned the tables. It also changed society. Strength of one's level cap was all that mattered. The strongest were Kings and Emperors. The weak or those too poor to afford the marvelous device, destitute. And so it has been for millennia. All that mattered was one's level cap. High, low, a fate decided the moment the strange contraption came alive. Too high and you were a threat to those interested in keeping the status quo, a weed to be nipped before it could grow and take root. Too low and you were nobody, fated to be a bit more than a simple farmer. What if someone, somewhere, came up with a zero for their level cap? Unable to use Essence, unable to level up. On all of recorded history, it never happened. Until it did. In a small village of fur-less and tail-less ape-beastkin, a boy found out he was uniquely handicapped. Nero's level cap was Zero. But he'd never let that stop him from reaching his goals. ------------------------------------------------ All stories have already been told. We merely reuse elements from them. From Joseph Campbell's Monomith to Stephen King's advice, and that encyclopedia of tropes you've visited, fiction has been dissected and reassembled countless times. One will surely find elements inspired on other works here. Just like cooking from basic ingredients, the recipe and presentation is what really matter. This is a fantasy adventure, of someone that goes from a zero to a slightly bigger zero. It will have romance but no harem. Cruelty but with hope dimly shining ahead. Lightweight where it can be, heavy where it must. Thanks for reading. Cover Credits (The cover is CC-BY-NC-SA): Steampunk Spider Bracer, by Daniel Proulx.

Awakening an ancient civilization from their past may be their only hope now. A spiraling doom awaits the world of Isulia. **************** I put the gore warning not because my book is overly gory (It's not constantly blood and guts). However, there are several moments that are extremely violent. I've always loved shows/movies such as, (The Expanse, The Boys, Banshee, Kingdom of heaven, Vikings, Attack on Titan, Baccano, etc.) I am descriptive of the scenes with violence. So be warned :) I've worked long and hard and have finally finished my third draft. Still needs work but everything storywise is complete. There are still a few things I need to add and tweak. Grammatical errors and flushing out the characters and dialogue still needs work. If you see any errors or plot holes, please feel free to point them out. It helps me improve upon the story.
