And now that that stuff is out of the way! We have some something interesting before I release the chapter! Well... It would be much easier to release the entire thing once I finish it, but leaving a hint or two to completely mess with your heads is perfectly fine in my book.
Well this is a short excerpt from chapter 8,
Spoiler : I didn’t notice myself breathing a sigh of relief. “Right, I remember that. They were complaining that they couldn’t use the children.”
Well, it seems they will still be alive till you get around to killing them.
Stab, Stab, Stabbidy stab, the knife sinks slowly into my chest
I slammed my fist into the table. A large snap was heard as a crack spread diagonally across it. I gritted my teeth and closed my eyes, forcing myself to chase the voice away. I could feel the cold metal against my hand, the illusionary knife finding its way into my grasp.
Hehehe, is little Aren actually close to breaking?

Isn’t it about time you joined me?
It just takes one little knife thrust.
Right to the heart.
Conspiracy theories commence! Is Tui a psychopath leading us all to a bad end? Is there some super important detail that everyone is missing? Who is the her that is constantly mentioned? Stay tuned to find out!
.....................................................
And now that I've finally gotten over my fever, I can start releasing chapters more frequently again. (I feel reaaaaally bad for not releasing these chapters sooner.) So here is the teaser for chapter 9. Be forewarned, this one is a bit more of a tease than most.
Spoiler : “It hurts…” the girl whimpered, “Woss… Awair…. it hurts…”
The force of Ross shaking the cage suddenly increased, “Let her go you bastard! Let her go!”
“No.” Was the brother ghoul’s reply.
“I’m going to kill you!” Ross screamed, tearing himself away from the cage and scanning the wall behind him for the keys.
Yeah... That Dead End is looking mighty close right now... Maybe I really am a psychopath?
Tui signing off. {[999baw}]

So You Don't Want To Be Evil?
If anyone asked Eric if he hated his life or not, he would definitely state that yes, he did indeed hate his life. He was the kind of person who much preferred to stay in their room all day, daydreaming about all the fantastic lives he could be living, rather than the terrible one he's living now. Luckily for Eric, such an opportunity presents itself one night, on his eighteenth birthday. Dropped into the fantasy world of Allaria, Eric finds that he now has a second shot at living the life he dreams of. Unfortunately, not only does he have no idea what he's doing, but he soon comes to realize that this new world doesn't particularly care about him at all, and that there are many people out in this new world that aren't exactly the most fantastic bunch of folks. After being forced into working for a group of ragtag outcasts with questionable morals, Eric finds that life in this fantasy world is a whole lot more work than he originally thought.

The devil's got my number
Dalton was always a nice place. Always had been. When that new couple moved here, we were all ecstatic. They were wealthy, but not arrogant, always willing to help out their neighbors. All around the perfect kind of migrant. They brought a child with them. Jacob. He was beautiful, just like his parents. He had his mother's beautiful hair, and his father's beautiful eyes. But he was different. He wasn't social, or nice, like his parents. He mainly kept to himself. Until one day he didn't. Strange tales, of the boy running around the neighborhood at night started to pop up. Of sacrificing children and dark rituals. The average person dismissed it as just that, rumors. But those of us that had seen the boy, knew the truth. His eyes were no longer the deep, vibrant color of his father. They were the green of rot, his skin the color of a corpse. The devil had taken the boy, and, like a disease, he was spreading his curse.

Purple Scales - A Reincarnation Story
Ssssssss...... A simple story of a man brought into a world of fantasy, magic, and systems by a crude God as some sort of a deal we may never know. Although.... he's a snake. Your typical honest-to-goodness brightly coloured danger noodle with venoms and all. To be precise, a magical snake with lots of growth potential. Follow the story of Randy, a pushover whose commands by God only being "survive, and grow big", on a journey to... well... survive and grow big, as he discovers what the world truly has to offer. Which is not much. Hopefully, not too much. A typical reincarnation story, really, but it might just satisfy your thirst for these kinds of stories. I'm just an amateur writer hobby-writing on my spare time, mostly for private consumption. This is also a practice on me developing gamelike-systems in literature. Will contain lots of swearing Any criticisms and feedback regarding storyline, language, and thematics are welcome. As this is a spare-time hobby, updates are not, will not, and will never be predictable. I will try my best, but don't get your hopes up. Inspired by a few other works on this site.
