《The Strongest Armor》Chapter 7: The Journey Beyond the Four Walls and the Interesting Girl
Advertisement
Ten years later, Li Zimu is now ten years old.
‘Curses, if only time passed that fast.’
Today, Li Zimu is officially ten months old.
And he finally leaves his room for the first time since birth, to visit the.. Dining room.
His furthest journey so far resulted in him being downstairs, where he currently is, sitting on the table looking at the feast before him. Yet in his bowl was only milk. Various types of beast milk.
Today was a celebration for his tenth month. In these ten months, he has been practising every day. Babbling and crawling around his giant room.
A month ago, he finally managed to take his first step. As a result… His parent’s loving flirting worsened as they spoiled him even more and increased his beast milk intake.
On another note, his cultivation has increased to Channel Opening lv 6 with 69 Meridians currently open.
“Ah, my adorable wife, I missed you!”
His biggest gain is his increase in speed when his Basic Cultivation Method leveled up to-
“Hehe, my handsome hubby, I missed you too!”
Leveled up to 4, which increases the amount of experience required by a whopping amount.
“What are you talking about? You’re the prettiest woman in the world! Which lucky man does this beauty belong to?”
“You of course, darling.”
Li Zimu’s expression seemed to turn a few shades darker as veins popped up on his plump little face.
Desperately, he looked around for a distraction from the disgustingly sweet couple beside him. His ears will rot if this keeps up.
Turning his head, he noticed even the loyal old Bai’s expression was a little unnatural. The servants around also had their face twitch slightly as they averted their eyes.
The people in this room shared one thought.

‘‘‘If only ears could be turned off…’’’
From the corner of his eye, Li Zimu noticed a little head poking out behind old Bai.
A little girl, 4-5 years old, was looking at him with curiosity. Noticing his stare, she yelped in surprise and hid behind old Bai like a frightened little bunny.
Seeing this, old Bai chuckled and brought her over.
“Young master, this here is my granddaughter, Li Yun (meaning cloud), I wanted her to be as free as the clouds. But here she is, stuck with me. Her parents passed away tragically two years ago. I hope you’ll take care of her in the future, you two can be playmates and train together.”
‘Grandpa bai, I’m barely a toddler. I didn’t need to know the whole story, I was just curious. Stop trying to set me up with your granddaughter, ok?
There’s still time in the future when I’m supposed to understand human speech please.’
Turning back to his milk, Li Zimu could only hear the sounds of his parents beside him.
The annoyance and rage bottled up inside him after ten months of this torture finally erupted and he, a previously grown man, threw his first tantrum.
… and spoke his first word.
“Sdaopfu!” (stop)
“““....”””
Silence. Everyone stopped moving as if time was frozen and stared at him.
‘Oops’
Just as Li Zimu was worrying whether it was inappropriate or something, the suffocating awkward silence finally broke.
First came his mother’s sloppy wet kisses.
“Kyaaaaa my baby said his first words!”
Then his father’s embarrassed face with his emotions written all over his forehead in bold. I want to hug him but I’m embarrassed. I don’t want to break my image of a manly man.
‘Bro, you were flirting so damn hard a minute ago and now you know embarrassment?!’

Then Grandpa Bai brought out a crystal ball and started cursing about something recording and unexpected moment.
‘Don’t try so hard to record my first word! I know you got my first step on record!’
The servants eventually unfroze too and Li Zimu could hear all sorts of gossip and whispers.
“Damn I bet he would say mama as his first world.”
“Haha, you lost. You owe me ten gold!”
“Hey you bet on papa! You lose too!”
‘No, don’t gamble on me! I’m not your entertainment!’
With all the rebutting firing of in his head, his facial expression still remained the same. Snuggling up to his mother, Li Zimu acted tired with a little pout.
Seeing this adorable reaction, Lan Zhenya (mother) pulled him out of his baby chair and started to carry him back upstairs.
Li Zimu, enjoying the snuggle suddenly stiffened.
‘Fuck Grandpa Bai, why are you bringing her up too?’

Harry Potter and the Seer's Ambition
After Voldemort came back at the end of the triwizard tournament, Harry tried his best to inform the wizarding world that he was back but faced with denial and ridicule, Harry could only fume in anger. Little did he know that Voldemort wasn’t the biggest threat he would have to face. Receiving power from unexpected sources and armed with Information he didn’t expect to have, Harry sets out on a mission to bring the dark lord and his followers down and uncover one of the world’s least known secrets. ============ This novel has been posted on Webnovel, Scribblehub, Fanfiction & RoyalRoad. This story was supposed to be a rewrite of my earlier book, Harry Potter and the Dark Phoenix but the plot ended up so different that I figured I’d just make a new book out of it. I might, at some point in the future, rewrite the earlier book with the earlier plot but that will have to wait for this one to finish. This is an AU so please keep that in mind. Constructive criticism is welcome, needless bashing is not.

Theory of Rifts (LitRPG)
You can join my Discord here. Keynes Kid is gifted with a photographic memory and being several months away from receiving Level 1, and a Talent, he finds himself in the center of attention of people who want to shape his Talent. If they can get him an intelligence related Talent, they will hit a jackpot. The Talent Unlocking ceremony finally comes and Keynes Kid receives… Error… Anomaly (What?) His new talent is… useless. Why then does the World Government want Keynes so badly they will silence anyone who knows about his Talent? At the same time... Somewhere in the Universe, ancient beings stir from their slumber, awoken by the system alert and the wall of glaring red warnings. Their greatest fear just manifested and they are hell-bent on erasing it from existence. -------- It is a slow-development story, so you won't find the MC with super powers at the beginning. -------- It is a coming of age story and focuses on a Talent system (in the beginning) with several additions that bring to the table upgrading of a planet’s tier and such (a bit later). There will be quite an amount of rebuilding society as new, unknown resources enter the economy, and a lot of travelling, delving and naturally, unlocking the secrets of the Universe. As for the setting, the story starts in XXI century, which technology-wise isn't much different from what we have now, but it is enhanced by magic associated with Talents. This allowed the humankind to colonize the solar system, but the technology that allows for interstellar travel doesn't exist (yet). Because it’s my first attempt at LitRPG, please be forgiving but constructive. I hope you will enjoy the story! --- Cover by Daniel Gembus https://www.artstation.com/daniel_gembus instagram.com/danielgembus
