Chapter 1845: Evil Caning Imp
Translated by XephiZ
Edited by Aelryinth
The trees and shrubs scattered all over the place after the Cloud Bursting Waterfall poured down the mountain cascaded down the sides of it. Mo Fan sat with his legs crossed on top of a boulder and waited for Zhu Qi, like the Monkey King when he went to provoke a temple on a mountain.
Chief Zhu Qi raised his head. Anger burst out of his chest when he saw Mo Fan’s attitude. His breathing intensified quickly.
“Do you know how my son died!?” Zhu Qi snarled right away.
Despite Wu Jiao’s advice, Chief Zhu Qi was unable to let go of his son’s death. He had put in so much effort to raise his son Zhu Min, but the young man had died just like that. He had nowhere to vent the feeling of unjust and frustrations in his heart!
Mo Fan did not respond. Chief Zhu Qi added in a cold voice, “Nothing would happen if you and your friends hadn’t come here and caused so much trouble. If you are indeed filled with remorse, you will seal your spiritual strength away and give my son a few kowtows. After that, you just need to behave yourself and wait for another five days. I won’t make things difficult for you and your friends.”
Mo Fan’s mouth hung open for some time after listening to Zhu Qi’s words.
He was already an unreasonable man, yet Zhu Qi was even worse than him. Did he seriously ask him to give Zhu Min kowtows? Kowtow my ass!
“Blaming gravity when you’re struggling to take a poop, the saying is perfect for you. Please, if you knew your son was completely useless, like a little flower in a greenhouse, you shouldn’t have brought him to such a dangerous place to do your shameful deeds. You’re now blaming others after something happened to him, when you yourself failed to teach him proper skills. You’re really something!” Mo Fan exclaimed.

The force of the chain when it snapped in half might be strong, but was unlikely to kill an Advanced Mage right on the spot. Even an Intermediate Mage with slightly better reflexes could prevent the chain from hitting their vulnerable parts. A person who died in such a petty manner was not worth calling himself an enforcer!
Every enforcer was supposed to be prepared to face dangers that might threaten their lives. Did that Zhu Min seriously pass the tests?
It was obvious that Zhu Qi had abused his power to allow his son into the Enforcement Union. The young man was nothing but a bum!
There were only so many branches of the Enforcement Union in their country, so the number of enforcers was limited. The Enforcement Union was supposed to pick the best Mages from among the more talented graduates and Hunters. The greater their roles, the more capable they would have to be. These honorable Mages were able to handle all kinds of danger, yet Zhu Min had died to a chain when it snapped in half. If Mo Fan was his father, he would be too ashamed to tell others. How humiliating would that be?
And yet, this Zhu Qi still dared to put the blame on him? He even demanded Mo Fan give Zhu Min kowtows?
Even a righteous man had no obligation to bear the responsibilities for the young man’s death, let alone an unreasonable, hot-tempered Mage like Mo Fan!
“You knew why you came to the island in the first place. Dawn Island is a mess you left behind. If you are filled with remorse, let my friends go and turn yourself in to the highest Enforcement Union and give Wanggui Town its peace back. That way, I might consider attending Zhu Min’s funeral and perhaps burn him an incense stick or something…
“Screw it, why the hells am I bothering to waste my time with you? You’ve committed so many dirty crimes. You deserve not to have anyone to pay you their last respects when you die!” Mo Fan finally cursed.

Mo Fan began to wonder if his temper had improved the older he was. If it was him a few years ago, he would have simply beat the crap out of anyone who dared to imprison his beloved Miss Tangyue and Lingling. If he did not cripple this person, he would feel ashamed to tell others that people used to call him the Demon King!
“Humph, I have long heard that you are the kind to run amok by abusing the little reputation you’ve earned. It seems like there’s no way you will take the initiative to drop to your knees and repent. I shall break your legs and make you stay beside my son’s grave to keep watch over it!” Zhu Qi’s eyes flickere, his face vicious. Someone had to be responsible for Zhu Min’s death. It was obviously Mo Fan, not the chain!
“If you keep being such a scum, I shall reserve the spirits of your whole family. I’ll definitely bring my favorite disc and play it on loop!” Mo Fan cursed him right back. There was no need to be reasonable with a man like Zhu Qi. It felt much better just to quarrel with him!
Zhu Qi felt like his lungs were about to explode with rage. Breaking Mo Fan’s legs alone was no longer enough to calm his anger!
“You better remember your words when you are begging for mercy on your knees later!” Zhu Qi began to emit a murderous aura. He was an Ice Mage, so a deadly Aura of Ice Magic started forming under his feet.
The Star Patterns instantly combined into an icy-white Star Constellation. Every time it flickered, another Star Constellation would appear as the deadly Ice Magic spread even further.
Zhu Qi was using a Super Spell right at the start of the fight. Mo Fan immediately recalled Mu Bai had just shown him the power of a Super Ice Spell when he used it on the Manta Ray Evil Birds. Even though Mo Fan enjoyed quarreling with the man, he still cast Earth Wave on the ground below his feet to prepare an escape route in advance!
A strange burst of laughter, like the voice of a mischievous kid, suddenly came out of somewhere. Mo Fan thought Zhu Qi had Summoned some kind of demon to ambush him without him knowing. He almost subconsciously cast Blink and ran away from the scene before he noticed an illusionary black mist floating out of his body and approaching Zhu Qi like a dark phantom.
Zhu Qi was unaware of the mist. His Super Spell was completing itself at a quicker rate than Mu Bai’s spell, but the black mist was quicker. The mischievous laughter was still echoing.
A demon spirit with a horn on its forehead suddenly appeared from the mist. It was little like a kid around the age of eight. However, it was holding a huge whip covered in cursed runes in its hand!
The little demon spirit laughed sinisterly as it flung the whip at Zhu Qi’s back as he was about to complete his Star Palace. The huge whip was supposed to be used on monsters and demons. It easily covered a person’s entire back!
Zhu Qi did not react in time at all. The elegant Star Palace collapsed when the Cursed Whip struck him. The force sent him diving to the ground. He ended up eating a mouthful of mud and grass!

Only Villains Do That
While waiting on an Akihabara train platform one day, ordinary high schooler Yoshi Shinonome was suddenly plucked from his normal life in Japan and whisked away by a beautiful goddess to Ephemera, a world of magic and adventure, to serve as her Hero and drive back the evil Dark Lord. This is not his story. Standing nearby at the moment Yoshi was isekai'd was a man named Seiji - a rude, cranky, misanthropic musician who was not at all pleased to find himself also snatched up and transported to Ephemera by the goddess's wicked sister, Virya. According to this self-proclaimed Goddess of Evil, the whole fantasy adventure thing was a game she and her sister played to stave off the boredom of immortality, and since the good goddess, Sanora, had picked her Hero...well, Virya needed a Dark Lord. A grown man with his own career and ambitions, Seiji has no interest in playing. Unfortunately for him, the call to adventure was not a request. Now, he must conquer Ephemera and defeat the Hero...or Virya promises to make him beg for the release of death before granting it. Playing along for his own survival, Seiji nonetheless is under no illusions who his true enemy is, and it's not the naive young would-be Hero from his own world. Placed in an impossible position, Seiji must make enough progress toward world domination to keep his sadistic patron goddess off his back, but not so much that he can't strike an accord with the forces of Good and convince the Hero Yoshi that it's the goddesses who are their mutual enemy. Forced to embrace Evil without being too evil, Seiji walks the razor's edge, building his forces and biding his time till he can get revenge on the goddesses and be free of them, his only certainty that he will not be getting out of this with his hands clean. A Dark Lord's gotta do what a Dark Lord's gotta do. Updates Tuesday and Friday. Most Patreon tiers get to read one chapter in advance of the public release!

Wander West, in Shadow
BOOK 1 COMPLETED A young wizard journeys west, through dark forests and dangerous lands, searching for something. Accompanied by a wild witch who has secrets of her own, they come across terrible creatures, hauntings, cursed villages, and memories from their past. Who else will they meet along their journey, and to find what he is looking for, how far will the wizard have to wander west? NOTE: The above synopsis is intentionally written to be as spoiler-free as possible. If you would like a more in-detail synopsis, one that contains minor spoilers, please check out the "Synopsis" chapter at the beginning of this fiction. If you read and enjoy, please leave a rating or review! FORMERLY TITLED: THE GLIMMERLING This story was formerly titled "The Glimmerling", because the first part was a short story of that title; it has since been expanded upon, thus the title change. Chapters 1-8 (30k words) are the first 'arc', if you want to get a feel for the story. To give some context on the setting: Magic is a bit weaker in this story than you might be used to, and we start off following some relatively new magic users. For some perspective, being able to light a campfire with magic is considered relatively advanced for someone who is the age of the main character. Magic can become very powerful - and there are some examples of powerful wizards within this story - but it's not where the main characters are yet. Part of the story is about following them as they learn more about magic. Enemies are also very dangerous, and running, hiding, or trying to talk their way out of a dangerous situation is often a better choice than fighting for the characters. While I have added tags for traumatizing content, sexuality, violence, swearing, etc. I try to avoid super-explicit descriptions of these things. But they are part of the story.
