《Hex [h.s]》Chapter Twenty-one
Advertisement
Ever experienced that kind of feeling, when you feel so down and you also want the world to feel your pain?
Or, the feeling that, just because you're down or mad, you also want them to feel the same way as you do because they will never understand?
Well, just when I heard Mom telling me that Aunt Crystal was dead, I just wanted to scream at myself and end my life then and there.
But I just couldn't.
My tears won't pour out, and I felt like my brain was numb, as if it weren't inside my head.
Even though I want to tell Mom who killed her, question is, who would believe me?
"I found her dead beside me when I woke up, last week."
Last week?
"She had a big slice on her throat and I ran to find you in your room, all beaten up." She cried.
"L-last week?"
"Y-you were out that long, I was worried that I wouldn't see you open your eyes a-again." My mom croaked, wiping her tears away.
I knew who killed aunt Crystal, it's the bastard who used to live in the house. I would try to kill him, but he's dead. I knew it was impossible.
It wasn't in our so-called deal that he can kill the people who are close to us or our relatives. Our deal was... well, it just wasn't stated by him.
How dare he? First Ben, second is Ruby, and now her mom? I just wanna kill myself right now, I feel guilty.
Really guilty.
"M-mom..." I stammered, "C-can we move to another house? M-maybe at another state perhaps?"
She just remained silent.
Fuck. Why can't she just get the fact that there's a ghost in the house, a devil, who used to kill people until now?

But, what confused me is that Harry was so close to killing my mother. But, why did he not? It's not that I want my mom killed, considering she's my last family besides my dad. But, why won't Harry hurt her or even touch her? I've never even heard him talk about my mom, what more, look at her. It seems like my mom doesn't exist in this house!
"Mom."
"I-I don't even know." She finally answered, "I don't know Lucy, I'm not sure."
I sighed and closed my eyes. I want to be free from this hell hole. This town is much more worse than it's name itself.
Just you wait Harry, once I get out of here, you'll wish you never killed Ruby's mom. I promise that.
After a few days in the hospital, I was finally sent home. I was half-scared and half-excited to put my plan into action.
What if something goes wrong? What will I do?
But I pushed all those doubts out of my mind as Mom finally stopped the car in front of the famous house of the famous murderer.
His ass is going to be hanged sooner or later.
I step out of the car, wincing a bit when my still-healing leg hits the pavement and walk-hopped to the front door.
The house was still the same, still the same cold and lifeless house. I shudder a bit when I remembered the owner is a killer, who knows who has been slaughtered or raped in this very house.
"If you're hungry Lucinda, there's fries on the fridge." Mom spoke, carrying my bag up to my room.
I walked to the refigerator, and just like I expected, the fries turned into man's fingers. I threw it away and let out a huff.

I'm tired of his fucking games. I'm tired of the fact that when we fight, I always end up in the hospital.
I'm not hungry for food. I am hungry for vengence.
I looked at the box full of firecrackers that the man next door, who's name I learned was Joshua, gave us.
"Here, fireworks for your Fourth of July." He grinned, scratching his ash-blonde hair, blue eyes twinkling.
My mom gave him a smile and hugged him, making me turn away. It was obviously clear that she likes him, and he too. But let's not forget my mom has a daughter, me. And besides, she is still married to my dad.
"Thanks, Joshua." My mom gushed, as the man gave her a smirk, and walked away back to his house.
That was just plain gross.
Out of boredom, I picked up a triangle firecracker and stared at the label.
'The big BANG!'
My eyes widened as a plan formulated inside my mind, and I smiled a sinister smile.
One thing was sure, Harry would recieve my vengence with a loud BANG!

Reincarnated As A Benevolent Tyrant
NOTICE: This story is under rewrite. New novel has been published. Search **RE: Tyranny** in Royalroad for the new novel.Link- Re: Tyranny Thank You! ------------------------ "Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory." What a brilliant line, isn't it? James was a boy who had nothing to worry about. A happy family, a nice childhood. What's more to ask? But one day, everything changed. He lost everything in the blink of an eye. The only thing left for him were the memories and dreams of the past. Trying to cope up with the loss, he cut all ties with the outside world and became a shut-in, having no one left to call his own or to rely upon. There was nothing left for him in this world, but still he lived and soon found a purpose in his life, which lead him to create something that could change the world.And on the very day when his dream project was about to come to the light, he lost his life, trying to save a little girl from an unfortunate accident. "Will I ever be remembered...? I wish... someone would." These were the last word James mumbled before his conscious faded into darkness. But his life didn't end there, as he is transmigrated into the body of an arrogant, worthless Duke's son in some unknown land with no memories about who is or any idea about where he is. In an era of political turmoil and civil strife, the Duke's son is forced to prove his worth for inheriting the title. Will he be able to accept the new reality and prove himself by leading this country into a prosperous future? Or will he cease to the pressure of his past and lose everything once more? Disclaimer: This is not a power-fantasy or a 'feel-good' story. If you feel a protagonist should never lack agency (especially in early story) or make compromises because of difficult circumstances, then this fiction is probably not for you. It is a story that delves deep into real world sociological/psychological subjects and explores many topics of gray morality. I wrote it because I like stories that make me think more about the world around us, not to detach myself from reality. Some aspects you can expect based on the tags include:- [Kingdom Building]: political drama, geopolitical/geoeconomic strategy- [Army Building]: massive battles featuring in-depth planning, combined arms, and operational logistics- [Identity Crisis]: someone translated into a whole different world having to rebuild their identity and life aims The story starts off slowly, more like a slice of life than action-adventure, but I guarantee you it will get there. For those who want to skip the slow part, start from Chapter - 35 (Beginning of The End) (The whole Disclaimer section is copied from Aorii as I am too busy writing the complete story.) And yes, just for General Knowledge, James will become OP throughout the story. He is not some legendary guy who will pull out Excalibur & conquer the entire world. Update Schedule - One chapter a day. This novel is also available on Scribble Hub. And again, I humbly thank you for reading it. I hope you stick throughout the journey.
