《The Dark Star Emperors》Chapter 15: The Wave of the Crowd
Advertisement
The school day ended without any problems. It was a very boring day for the three, but they knew what they were about to do. Before the class day actually finished, each one of them left five minutes early, so that they wouldn't miss the three Light Guardians from leaving.
They were also very surprised that they all had the same idea as they stood around in the corner of the exit waiting for the school bell to ring.
"So," Jack asked to start a bit of small talk, "what excuse did you give to leave early? I asked to go see the nurse."
"I asked the teacher to also see the nurse," Yune said.
Mary kept quiet. "What about you, Mary?," Jack asked.
"Me? Oh, I just left. Didn't say a word," Mary replied.
Jack laughed, "Nobody tried to stop you. And you just walked out without saying anything. Hah!"
Even Yune chuckled a bit.
"What's so funny? The teacher was writing something on the board. So, I just walked up and left. I don't think anybody noticed," Mary said.
And when the school bell rang, students bustled the hallways.
The three overheard one of the group of boys say, "Hey. Did you see that girl who just left the class without saying anything? That was so cool."
"Huh? I guess they did notice," Mary commented to the other two girls.
"Yeah," another one of the boys said to his friend without noticing the girl, "It's too bad the teacher plans to give that girl a detention. She was so cool walking out like that."
"What!?" Mary exclaimed, "The teacher said I'm getting another detention?"
"Hey, it's you. I thought you would have went home by now," one of the boys said who noticed her and then walked away.

"Well, I don't see those three, yet. Hopefully, we'll be able to notice them in this crowd," Jack said.
"I doubt it," Yune mentioned, "Let's go up to the rooftop and see if we can find them from a bird's eye view."
Jack, Yune, and Mary all tried to go through the crowds as each one struggled to fight the oncoming horde of kids. It felt like fighting upwards against a waterfall.
However, during their hard trek, somebody grabbed Mary's arm. She looked over and saw her teacher.
"Well, well, well. Seems you're still here," the teacher said.
"Sorry, teach, but I got to go," Mary said.
The teacher dragged Mary away from Jack and Yune who were worrying about their own trouble of getting through.
Then, Mary looked at the teacher with eyes of purple. She stared at him with intense anger and ordered him, "Let go of my arm." A new power swelled up inside of her that she had no idea of.
The teacher wasn't frightened, but his mind fell asleep for a moment. He had no control over himself and let Mary's arm go as if he was hypnotized.
"Oh. Thanks, teacher," Mary said relaxed and then she went back to fighting against the crowd.
He was frozen for a bit. But he felt nothing. His mind was empty, but then as if something clicked inside of him, he woke up.
He looked at his hand and wondered where that girl went, but even he just wanted to get home.
The three made it to the top of the school roof and looked around. They looked and looked, and eventually they noticed three girls happily walking away from the school gate.
Mary, Jack, and Yune transformed themselves and went off into the shadows to follow them.

Virtuous Cultivation
-July 10, 2022- Stocked Chapters: 8 I'm out of hiatus, but honestly, I can't trust myself to post consistently anymore... A new arc is about to begin, and I'll start posting again once the entirety is done. It might take a year, but honestly, this story is going to go on for the foreseen future anyway... so I suppose that's just a blip in the grand scheme of things? I'll leave updates here every once in a while, if for some reason you're still actively checking on this incredibly slow story T-T The path of cultivation is often portrayed as one stained by bloodshed. But is that truly necessary? Heaven is merciful, after all. On a rather ordinary day, a peasant girl was whisked away by a strange old man. In a hall of great white jade, she was offered the chance to cultivate. ...too bad she's as lazy as a sloth. Slice of life Xianxia with fairly little action in early chapters, more focused on comedy.

Rise of an Undead in a Fantasy World
Have you ever wondered what would happen if an undead being that doesn't know what it is like to be alive got free will? What would that undead creature do? How would they think? How would they view the world around them? Would they see life as futile and conquer the world, making it a lifeless danger zone to all living beings? Well, none of that matters, because that's not happening. Our main character is your average gamer from the modern world, yada yada yada... gets transported to a fantasy world through obscure means, blah blah blah... you know how this works. What separates him from the masses, however, are his views on ethics, and world politics. ... Oh, and the fact that he doesn't need to breathe. Message From Author! Accept?: Yes No This is only my second novel, so keep that in mind. I will try to keep the quality of the story to an acceptable level. This means something that I, myself would read. The quantity, however, may put some people off. Adding onto the whole "villainous lead" thing, I will make sure to have the character develop into that perfect little villain over time, instead of starting him out as a bloodthirsty murder-hobo. Of course, there will still be a lot of murdering and he may be a hobo for some of it, but it will mostly not be out of malice in the very early chapters. Last but not least, I have decided there will not be a defined release schedule for this, as I have lost interest in forcing myself to upload x amount of times a week. I will upload whenever I get a good idea, and take my time. That is, if I even feel like writing in the first place. Instead of taking breaks from this novel to do my own thing, I will take breaks from my daily life to post on here. Also, I'm lazy. Thanks for reading, and if you're alright with everything above, feel free to give it a read, and without further ado, have a good one! - Your Author P.S.: I will have little to no romance in the story, as I can't bring myself to writing it, so you don't have to worry about harems.
