《Monarch of the Darkness》C12. A date
Advertisement
It was noon in the shopping districts and crowds filled all over the place. Hayden walked while enjoying the scenery of the city together with the red-haired beauty, Anastasya.
They have explored many places together for some time, and now both of them felt quite fatigued. Hence after some arguments, they finally decided to go to the fountain located in the middle of the shopping district.
As they arrived, both of them looked at many people that were sitting and enjoying their quality time in the surrounding area.
"How crowded, what's so special about this place?" Hayden asked Anastasya as he sighed in amazement. He thought that Zenith was doing a good job managing the entire city because almost every place that they have explored before was always full of people.
"It is always like this, how can you be so surprised again and again about this? Anastasya replied annoyingly.
"Oh my, you are the prince and you already live here since you were a kid. You should be the one who is more familiar with this city. But look at you now, I don't know why you look like someone that never been on this place. I am so tired of explaining every single thing to you. It's been three hours already." Anastasya continued explaining in disbelief.
She felt tired of explaining things because Hayden already asked too many questions every time they went to a new place. She had answered all of his questions patiently, but there were always follow-up questions that made it never end. If this continued, Anastasya believed that she would soon be exhausted and collapsed.
"Come on. I didn't ask too much and I'm also your escort now. Besides accompanying you, I think I also got the privilege to ask you about some questions. I really want to be more familiar around this city and also it is rare to have such a beauty as a guide." Hayden smiled thinly. He didn't want to lose an argument with her.

"You... How shameless." Anastasya gritted her teeth while thinking about a way to make Hayden shut up. She couldn't let things go on like this, else Hayden will be more and more immodest.
This small quarrels and arguments already happened for a while. It began as soon as they started exploring the city together. One person got a thick skin, while the other one was a bossy miss. Sparks always popped up as they explored new places, making these small quarrels never end.
Hayden couldn't help but smile. He didn't know why he began to tease her a lot. He just found Anastasya's expression quite amusing, especially the expression that she made when she pouted.
"Haha okay, I think I went overboard today. Now tell me how I can make it up for you." Hayden said earnestly towards her.
Anastasya's eyes were sparkling, not long after she walked slowly towards Hayden.
Hayden narrowed his eyes, wondering what this bossy miss wanted to do. Deeply inside, he felt that he need to be a bit wary because he just met Anastasya today. When they were exploring the city before, He had tried asking her some questions about herself. However, she always looked away and dodged the questions, making Hayden felt suspicious.
Anastasya walked enchantingly with both of her hands behind her back until she was in front of Hayden. Afterward, she halted her movement and slightly bowed while making a seductive face and gesture.
Hayden was astounded. He wanted to say something. However, Anastasya didn't show any sign of stopping. She continued moving forwards until her face was truly close to Hayden.
So close... Hayden was speechless and his cheeks went a bit red. He felt so dumbstruck that he didn't know how to respond to her action.
Hayden could see Anastasya face closely. Her gorgeous face was making his heart beat much faster, while her sensual lips made him realize that this woman was another calamity itself besides little Fay.

Anastasya noticed Hayden's flustered expression and she couldn't help but giggle silently, thinking that his expression was cute. Anastasya grinned and shortly afterward, she laughed and suddenly slapped Hayden's shoulder hardly with her right hand.
"Don't misunderstand, I only want you to treat me to a meal right now."
"What a sly devil..." Hayden cursed silently. He realized that he just got tricked by her. "Fine, what do you want to eat? Shall we go to a restaurant?"
"We don't need to go anywhere, let's just eat near here. Many food sellers opened their stalls around. Look there, let's just eat at that place." Anastasya smiled joyously and pulled Hayden's hand towards the stall, without letting him to express any single word.
Hayden could only watch her from behind and sighed helplessly.
As they arrived, both of them greeted the waitress and searched for a place to sit. Hayden told Anastasya to choose outside because he wanted to eat while enjoying the scenery.
As they walked to the table, Hayden noticed many men's hateful gaze towards him. He couldn't help but sigh while thinking that a beautiful woman like Anastasya always attracts lots of trouble. However, Hayden looked away and ignored them. He didn't want to waste his time with this bunch of fools.
Anastasya noticed it from behind and giggled silently.
After some time, the waitress came and gave them the menu. Anastasya's eyes were sparkling when she looked at the list of the foods and beverages. Without thinking too much, she ordered three different meals, all for herself.
Hayden was dumbstruck. He never thought that she could eat so much. "I see that your appetite is quite big."
"Hmph, I don't care. Here, go order yours and don't forget to get a cup of ice cream because it's hot today," said Anastasya as she gave Hayden the menu. Hayden quickly ordered his food and gave it back to the waitress.
As both of them were waiting for the food, Hayden gazed at the surroundings. He watched many people having fun with their group, children playing together with their friends and many couples spending their time happily with the person they love. Deeply inside, Hayden felt grateful that he got the chance to be reborn in this world.
Anastasya looked silently at Hayden, she didn't know what he was thinking right now, but she noticed that Hayden's expression seemed quite serious. Therefore, she didn't disturb him and let him be.
Shortly after, the foods came. Anastasya couldn't wait any longer and started eating right away. Hayden looked at the portion that she ate and laughed. He can only shake his head helplessly while thinking that she was indeed extraordinary.
"Are you still hungry?" Hayden asked Anastasya after they finished their food.
"It's fine. I am full, but we have a problem right now. We got only one cup of ice cream." Anastasya pouted. Hayden couldn't help but laugh when he looked at her helpless expression.
"It's okay, just eat it," said Hayden while laughing.
"No, the weather is a bit hot today, I want you also to enjoy eating an ice cream. How about this, come here and eat this together with me." Anastasya said to Hayden seductively while licking the spoon that has ice cream on it. Many men that were sitting near their place started to whisper and cursed Hayden silently.
Hayden covered his face with one hand and sighed. "You know what, just eat it yourself."

Loremaster: A Progression Dark Fantasy
Serena had died a Celestial. One of the few who were meant to rule over the vast multiverse. Yet she was inexplicably reborn. Carrying the knowledge of her past life, she seeks to do what her kind does best... rule. Yet, the multiverse isn't what it once was. Mortals aspire to become what the celestials once were, through levels or classes or cultivation. New things that didn't and shouldn't exist. And these mortals are only the beginning of what stands in her way. [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] Warning: There will be times that morally suspect themes happen. While I have little to no intention of showing them (especially during a Writathon) things like abuse of all kinds (neglect, emotional, mental, spiritual, physical and sexual) can or be implied to have happened. These are played to the horrors such things are, and are treated with the seriousness and aftereffects it would cause. Progression + Cultivation + GameLit + Multiverse + Slow Build + Slow Burn + Worldbuilding + Grimbright + Multiple POVs = Insanity for all. This the first time I am seriously writing an original story. I will be Writing each book in Parts/Arcs (3-6) with mini arcs (3-6 in each arc). Each Mini-arc is 5-14 or so chapters. I like progression stories and I've always wanted to try and write one like a few of the web novels that inspired me. The Game Lit aspects will be more in the background, with focus on other details like dungeons, monsters, loot, morality, and so on. There will be focus on various kinds of progression. Updates 3-5 days a week (Usually weekdays). Chapters will be roughly 1000-2500 words and alternate wildly.

Forced Development (What does it truly mean to live a fulfilling life?)
To get things started I would like to admit that this story does not bring much new to the table when it comes to the over-saturated Litrpg genre in terms of things like mechanics and power systems. Then what exactly am I trying to bring to the table with this work? A nice slow-paced novel about people maturing and growing older think of it as the re: zero or jobless reincarnation of Litrpgs. A story that tries to take into consideration how a worldwide system would affect the economics and culture of a world. A story that is much more character-focused than the typical heavy progression-focused novels this genre is known for. The RPG system, like any good power system, is there to actually explore the themes of the story and not just as a plot device for characters to get stronger. This is a story where we will see the growth of the Mc from being a baby to when he dies of old age. With plenty of heart-racing actions and intriguing plot developments along the way. Exploring themes like; What does it mean to improve at something and what does it mean to mature as a person? How does magic, the constant threat of monsters and people so much stronger than the average joe that they can destroy countries affect one's culture both on the micro and the macro scale? How people are affected by the culture in general? Generational trauma Nature vs Nurture Talent vs hard work What is morality, society, and people's opinions on both? What does it mean to be human and what does it mean to be alive in the context of a world with multiple sapient species vastly different from one another in basic biology? All these questions are going to be explored from multiple angles using the system as a catalyst for those discussions. So if any of does questions sound interesting to you what are you waiting for, I'm sure you are going to love this story. PS - Chapter come out every Friday at about the same time.
