《Serpent girl Lily.》Chapter 5: The library.
Advertisement
“damn that’s stupid arrogant perverted bastard, I swear his only role in this world is to ruin my days” Aura said to herself as she walked towards the library, this time not even bothering to pay attention to the people around her.
“the kings curse you. Whose fault do you think it is that I have to isolate myself” she muttered in a small sad voice.
“it’s his damn fault I started to talk to myself in the first place!” now with a hint of anger in her voice. “but maybe I should do something about that habit of mine,” she thought downhearted.
Aura was still the center of much attention, but no one dared to walk up and talk to her. She was, after all, a Queen, and one wrong move would course them to make her many silent admirers quite hostile. That and right now she had an aura around her that did not allow people to get near her.
As she walked she couldn’t help but feel a slight regret that her day which had started off so brilliant had taken such a turn for the worse thanks for that Kaspian. “I swear to the kings that I will find a way to ruin him and his stupid plans” she swore to herself as she picked up her pace a little.
After around two hours of walking, the sun was now beginning to set. But the great building that housed the library was also ever so slowly coming into sight.
A slight smile appeared on Auras face as the building came into sight.
The great library of the endless forest sect was truly worthy of the name great. It is the largest library in the world not counting the royal library of the fairy kingdom, but that was also tens of thousands of years older than even the human race so there is no way anything could surpass it.

But to the must people, this library was still far more important. As the fairy’s held texts of mostly ancient history. While the endless forest sect’s library holds the must information about cultivation as well as the endless forest.
Here there was text containing almost everything known about cultivation. Missing only some rare secrets held by other powerful sects and clans.
From simple things such as text telling about how the human race had over ten thousand years ago, wondered why some trees were so hard they could never in a hundred years cut them down, or while some of the beasts which they normally hunted for food. could sometimes destroy entire towns overnight. leaving them powerless in the face of death.
To them learning of the essences of nature. And starting to cultivate their soul realm, earning them great strengths. And their later attempt of world conquest.
It also held all the cultivation paths belonging to the different races, while the base for theses paths is the same. The absorption of essences to strengthening the soul, the soul will then strengthen the vessel, that being the cultivators body.
And how the paths come into play as the races are not all equal in affinity with the different elements. And that the paths allow one to convert the essences into the elements best suited for the nature of one’s race. And how must races have multiple paths each allowing cultivators to differ from others, not to mention that there are tens upon tens of thousands of arts to master so all differ from other in many ways.
And there is also an incredible amount of arts stored here as well. Making this place the destination of many thousands of disciples every day.
Aura walked through the great doorway, and she headed deep into the building past many large bookcases and other disciples. And went up many floors, each time she ascended a floor the sect elder guarding it would always look up, but upon seeing her silver robe they all just went back to their cultivation without a word.

The library has a great many sections and must disciples can't enter must of them. There is a total of twelve sections and for example, the Emperor of Zakunn could only enter the first 6. Aura as a one of the sects Queens of beauty could enter a total of ten, the only ones who could enter more is the great elders and the sect leader himself. This is just one of the many privileges given to the Queens.
Reaching the sevenths section, she finally stopped going further up and instead began to look for texts on the subject of enlightenment, which she had come for.
Hours passed and the only sound that could be heard on the entire floor was Aura slowly going through texts upon texts and the ever increasingly louder noises she made. As she time and time again ended up without results.
While Aura had told prince Kaspian that she was entering an area he could not enter she had lied to him as he with the title of a prince would enter up to the eights floor, but even still she was alone as few could enter this high and even then, must would not.
As Aura as slowly beginning to lose hope for an answer, she heard a familiar voice.
“having troubles finding what you are looking for?”
Recognizing the voice Aura turned to look in the direction it came from.
“Holly! Don’t scare me like that” she said looking at the beautiful angel who was standing beside her.
“hehe I didn’t mean to scare you but you was just too focused on the book you didn’t even sense me approaching. And that’s a big no no what if it have been someone else and not me? What if it had been prince Kaspian?” she said with a great big smile on her face.
“so you have already heard about that have you?” Aura asked already knowing the answer.
“yeah I have heard all about how the fourth-ranked beauty in the sect came into a big fight with the fifth-ranked prince,” Holly said teasingly.
“is that so? Then let me ask you what is the first ranked beauty and strongest cultivator of the young generation doing here alone so late at night?” Aura replied back also in a teasing voice.

The Isekai Police (aka "Earth's Advocates")
When evil kings summon kids from Earth to be used and abused as fast-leveling soldiers in their petty wars, the Isekai Police will be there to stop them. A group of ex-isekai protagonists in their own right, they utilize their collective skills to fight for the end of summoning abuse. Artyom Choi, cynical ex-hero and founding member of the organization, is sent to investigate the presence of an Earther on an innocently idyllic World where no summoning has supposedly taken place. His mission: rescue the Earther and figure out how he got there. Dark secrets lie beneath the surface of paradise, however. Will he be able to find this new hero and get out before whatever malicious forces brought them there doom them both? Book 1 has been finished! You can read Book 2 here in parallel or even before Book 1 if you want more TOAL than Artyom! https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/47708/the-isekai-police-hero-summonings-are-overrated This story is meant to be a deconstruction of the isekai genre that references and sometimes pokes fun at various tropes. Artyom isn’t some kid whose goal is to amass Levels or a harem. In fact, all he cares about is protecting other Earthers, and won’t let anything like that get in the way! So expect to see: -A mature main character who still has some flaws. -Character development over the course of the story. -No harems! (see last point) -A vibrant world full of interesting people, deep culture, and mysterious lore that gets uncovered as the story goes on. -Plenty of funny moments along the way! -The presence of a few cliched tropes and stereotypes only for the sake of poking fun at them. So step in, take the first leap, and uncover the next hot take on this expansive genre! My discord here: https://discord.gg/Zc8CHSrxVr

The Card Thief of Culnivar
Deep with the cozy kingdom of Daeton, among the generation-old farmlands and villages, a young farmer’s daughter stumbles upon a dead man. His elaborate clothing has been torn to ribbons, yet his skin remains unblemished. His face is peaceful, and tucked into the hand lying across his chest can be seen a solitary playing card. He is a Ludum Haeres. The last remnant of a Summoner. Numbered among those few capable of changing their destinies. The unseen rulers of the world known as Vesperia, and one of the most powerful creatures in existence. The woman knows none of this. And so, she picks up the card... This is my third novel on Royal Road, the first being "Beyond the Horizon's Eye", and the second being "The Dawnfire Archives". This story is something of a test in a new genre, that of CardLIT. We'll see how well it succeeds as the story continues. It takes place in a different setting than my other tales, with an entirely new cast of characters. It does, however, contain several ties between the stories. Average post between 1000 - 3000 words.
