《Path Of The Cultured Uncultured One》Chapter 7
Advertisement
Mig took a look outside, and she witnessed that Yang was standing still and Xiu punched him into his house, which was demolished right away. She wanted to go back to grab Yang's knife, but she noticed that the rubble started moving, and Yang stood up, pushing part of the ruin away.
Yang had a slight injury on his forehead, which was bleeding. His blood covered his left eye; thus, he had to keep it closed. As for Xiu, he was shaking his hand; he used to hit Yang.
Xiu: Damn crippled! You have a sturdy body!
Yang could clearly see Xiu's bones, and it was noticeable that Xiu's index finger was damaged in the punch and gained a small crack.
Xiu: I challenge you to a duel! The match ends when one of us dies or admits defeat!
Yang: I am not a great fighter, but I can vent my anger out since you angered me!
Xiu: Since you are crippled, I will give you the books I have on me if you, by any chance, defeat me!
Dong: I will not tolerate this fight! I used to be the teacher of Yang, so I refused to allow this duel!
Xiu: Master Dong, You said well, you USED TO BE. He can't remember who you are, so we are nothing but strangers in his eyes. Let him decide whether he has guts or he is just a chicken!
Yang: Are you finished? If so, then let the fight begin!
Yang walked closer to Xiu, who was surprised by Yang's action, but he followed Yang's example and got closer to him.
Yang: Let's...
Xiu punched Yang's face, slightly hitting his nose as well. Yang's head was pushed backwards, but he stepped backwords and didn't fall. But, unfortunately, his nose started bleeding. Before Xiu could have done anything else, Yang delivered a swift jab to the red dot he could see at Xiu's chest. Upon impact, the red dot vanished, and two extra appeared on each side of his collarbones. Also, Xiu started coughing and jumped back.

Xiu was covering the area where he was punched and seemed unwell and shaken. No one could have guessed why he was doing that, except for Yang because he witnessed how his punch cracked and broke some of Xiu's ribs. Also, The text above Xiu changed once again: "Weakened 53".
Xiu: Alright!
A light greenish aura appeared around Xiu, and the said aura seemed to be flowing towards his right hand. The moment that green colour appeared around him, the two dots Yang saw on their collarbones disappeared, and another formed on Xiu's throat.
Both Yang and Xiu dashed forward. Xiu's aura was entirely concentrated around his right hand and sent it flying towards Yang. On the other hand, Yang used his left hand to block Xiu's attack, and with his other, he unleashed a devastating punch to Xiu's nose. Upon impact, both parties were blown back. Xiu stayed standing, but his nose was drastically bleeding; as for Yang, he slid backwards and fell, but he jumped back up as soon as he could.
Yang used his palm to block the incoming fist, and it left a red mark on his hand; due to the sudden force, he hurt his hand. Yang opened and closed his left fist a few times, causing some minor pain, but he left them closed and looked back at Xiu. Xiu's nose was bleeding so fast that his chest was already painted with it. Also, he wasn't moving; he just stared at Yang without blinking. But strangely, Xiu's left hand was in his pocket.
Yang: I will finish this no matter what!
Yang, with extreme determination, dashed forward. The moment Yang moved, Xiu came back to reality, and he wanted to punch Yang with this previous trick, but Yang ducked at the last second and rolled forward, then proceeded with a kick to Xiu's face with both of his legs. Xiu was pushed backwards, then rolled on the ground, but he stood up at the same time as Yang did.

Xiu: I will unquestionably kill you with this last move!
Dong: Don't do it X...
Xiu pulled his hand from his pocket. he had a ring with a small blue gemstone on its top. Xiu snapped his fingers, and a light blue bolt of lightning struck Yang. The ring broke on Xiu's finger, and the lightning ignited the grass around Yang, but Yang was not injured. Instead, a blueish aura surrounded him.
Xiu: You mons...
Xiu had no time to finish his sentence, for he had infuriated Yang. Yang darted forward, and with all of his strength, he punched Xiu's mouth, shattering most of his teeth and sending him flying away.
Yang: Phew...
Dong was left speechless after he saw Yang's performance, and he walked to the out cold Xiu and checked whether he was alive or not. Fortunately, Yang did not kill him.
Dong: I apologise for the inconvenience Xiu caused. I hope you can forgive both of us.
Yang: I only had a problem with him. As long as one is not arrogant or immoral, I don't mind them.
Dong: I see... Thank you.
Dong picked the injured Xiu up, put him on his shoulder, and walked away on the trim trail.

The Flame in the Forge (A Slice of Life Isekai LitRPG)
Thrown into a world he doesn’t recognise, Niall Vendra has to adapt, learn and fight to survive. Physically, emotionally, personally. If Niall wants to save his family, then the man he was needs to transform. Surrounded by Minotaurs, Fae and Magic, Niall will have to reinvent himself as both a warrior and an artisan. Growth won’t be fast and it won’t be easy, but with patience and hard work, Niall can earn the Skills, Abilities and Classes to battle his way to the top. The Flame In The Forge is a LitRPG Isekai/Portal fantasy. You should expect slice of life with conflict and an overarching mystery to be solved. Niall will be both a crafter (primarily, but not exclusively, as a blacksmith) and a fighter. There won’t be a harem. But don't worry, there will be both flames and forges! I should be clear that while this is very much LitRPG, it's story led and I have tried to make it feel believable. So, for example, the first blue box doesn't appear until chapter 6. I hope that the payoff is worth it. Compared to some LitRPGs you may find the pace rather gentle at times. There will be some periods where it feels like Niall is eking out every level and others when, for good reasons, he makes a significant leap. My goal though is to give you a satisfying story, so that dictates when and how Niall's stats and skills change. I can reassure you that I fully intend for Niall to become immensely powerful, but I want you to feel like he has earned every level in a realistic way.

Thief of Time
[Participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Book 1: The Legend of Tot Synopsis: Claud Primus, a self-declared master thief, has a simple goal. To live forever. It's a rather easy task, for miraculous objects called lifestones are able to extend one's lifespan. These lifestones are best found in the treasuries of nobles, lovely resorts that Claud pays a visit to every so often. Unfortunately, one of those nightly visits go awry, and Claud is forced to escape with just a single lifestone and a box in hand. Normally, that's when things die down. The guards yawn, the gates close, and the night continues. But this time, the night isn't that forgiving. A dozen schemes result in the murder of someone important, and with a convenient scapegoat — Claud — at hand, it doesn't take long for him to be framed as a heinous criminal, wanted for the indirect murder of someone high up...and it just gets worse from there. Book 2: The Moon Lords' Rise Synopsis: As ordered chaos sweeps across Licencia, Claud leaves for Julan Barony, intent on making some profits there. Accompanied by the erstwhile heiress of Julan, a fellow member of the Moon Lords, the two plot against the barony's wealth...as well as a promise to bring about its downfall. Meanwhile, back home, the Moon Lords have busied themselves with digesting their gains. Eyes, however, are beginning to turn to this proverbial fish in a small pond. The fishermen are coming. When they cast their hook, what will Dia and the others do? Book 3: Murders under the Moons Synopsis: In the sleepy town of Nachtville, where Claud and Lily are forced to stop at, a set of nasty murders occurs. Victims scream out in fright, before a spear falls from the sky to end their suffering. Cowed and cautious, the master thief and his partner slink in the shadows, their objective that of home... A new task, however, has fallen on Dia. With a trusty helper at her side, she has to set off towards Nachtville itself, to solve the mystery Claud had abandoned. Faced with an enemy whose sole skillset is geared towards killing, how will they succeed? And what dark secrets will they find? Book 4: In the Dark of the Moons Synopsis: The year has ended. The four months of the full moons will soon be followed by two months of the new moons. Duke Istrel's ascension is around the corner. Amidst this political upheaval, Count Nightfall, Licencia's strongest defender, has been called away. The Moon Lords' largest task yet — to protect Licencia in the absence of its ruler — has begun. And yet, trouble is unrelenting. A distinguished personage, one that Claud fears, has been found dead in the county, his brains dug out and his body disemboweled. The inquisitors of the White Church have been dispatched to investigate and apprehend the murderer...as well as the person behind this puppet. Tormented by a call to fight, Claud directs his eyes out of the city, looking for the puppetmaster. Skulking in the shadows, the master thief will soon confront his greatest foe yet. A foe just like him. Book 5: Moonlit Tides and Darkened Seas Synopsis: A new era has begun. For the privileged, the sands of time dribble away for every passing moment, counting down to the arrival of a entity of mythical proportions. The night now harbours shadows and fog, and operatives of the Moons and the Dark clash in shadow. Claud, as usual, is investigating a spate of nasty disappearances in the city, but little does he know what these disappearances truly mean. And yet, a tide is coming. When it finally breaks, what will he do? Book 6: Secrets in Shadow Synopsis: The person behind a strike that would enter the annals of history flees his home, bringing with him the person closest to his heart into a new land and into a new world. Having left Istrel for the first time in his life, the two of them attempt to settle down in foreign lands, only to be caught in the middle of hostilities between two mighty powers grappling for dominion. Yet, none of that has anything to do with him. Following his desires, Claud eventually makes his way to the fabled Celestia Ruins, a fragment of another world. Bearing witness to truths he cannot yet comprehend, he returns from his exploration, a small break away from the machinations of destiny. One thing, however, is for certain. Destiny will not wait for him. Book 7: Reddest Rage Synopsis: Destiny churns on, heedless of mortal machinations, and Claud watches as the battlegrounds between the Moons and the Dark are drawn up. With the forces of the great Dark occupying Lostfon, Claud comes to a startling realisation — that he may have very well be a murderer of heinous proportions. Grappling with that realisation, he struggles to prepare for his Second Tutorial... Back in Istrel, Dia finds herself confronted with a perennial truth. Even in a time of writhing destiny, the machinations between nobles never cease to end — and unfortunately for her, the group once known as the Moon Lords are forced into dealing with a petty squabble between two counts. What they didn't account for, however, was the startling discovery they would soon make... And the shadow of the Red God's Holy Son behind it all. Book 8: Darkness Descends Synopsis: Nightmares haunt the horizon as Claud sinks and awakens from a seeming dream. What was once illusory begins to play out before him, in a way he cannot imagine. Dia, forced to wield arms, begins and ends a battle that opens her eyes to the vast dangers that lurk in this sundered world. Under the banner of humanity and divinity, she beholds the silent, forgotten protectors of Orb...but there is no forgetting the battle between the divinities. The Dark descends, the Moons writhe, and the horns of war blow once more. But this is not their battle. Not yet. Book 9: Moons Muster Synopsis: As more and more events fall into place, Claud finds himself desperate. Not for himself, but for the person who has turned into his world. Armed with the knowledge of a certain future, he approaches the only person that could possibly help him in his time of need, trading information for a promise of help. With that as solace, he returns to the grim task of understanding and seeking, revisiting an ancient, shattered fragment of another world...unleashing changes that he never knew was possible. Back in Istrel, Dia and the others must now navigate around a familiar spirit, who seeks to investigate the death of his master's Bearer. With them as prime suspects, the Seekers of Life must move carefully...but the Coloured Gods are not the only divinities eyeing them closely. The Moons, bristling from repeated defeats, are looking for new recruits, and the Seekers of Life are prime cannon fodder. Above all, destiny marches on, the unfeeling clock a warning to all. The Trial of Aeons will soon arrive. Book 10: Destiny Divine Synopsis: ??? Release frequency: one every few days or something, I guess. (This work is also being serialised on Webnovel under the name Revile as a trial run)
