Beatrix chose to buy the blue and green dress! Prince Andrew insisted to pay for the blue dress while Prince Anders insisted to pay for the green dress but in the end, she paid for the two dresses as she joke with them.
"My Father always says: 'Do not let another man pay for your things as long as you belong under my turf! The General's Mansion is not poor!'" She grinned after mimicking her father's exact words and booming voice. "So how can I, a good and proud daughter, let him down, eh?"
She checked from shop to shop. She bought two earrings, two necklaces, two rings, two bracelets, two shoes, and two hair accessories because she likes the two things and the two princes had different opinions... In the end, she paid for all the things that caught her interest and asked the store manager to deliver her purchased items to the imperial palace.
Why complicate things when Father General has the money?
She happily thought as she remember her Father's words that she could shop till she drop and he will take care of it but she will never make the General's Mansion go bankrupt! She only purchased things that she needs to uphold the face and dignity of the Lamoreaux and Marvel families. That is why she asked the two princes if the two things that she likes suit her well so she won't buy useless things and end up spending her Father's sweat and blood unnecessarily!
"Why didn't you buy anything?" Beatrix asked the two princes who are only following her, not looking or checking for anything.
"Nothing caught my eye so far." Prince Anders immediately replied.
"I have my specification." Prince Andrew explained in which Beatrix immediately understood. If the thing is not exactly according to his specification, Prince Andrew will never look at it, purchase it, accept it, or use it.

It was already dusk when the three tall and attractive figures passed by a mysterious man sitting inside a fortune teller's tent.
"You three people... Come here!" The man called the three of them, beckoning them to approach him and enter his tent.
The three looked at each other in surprise that there is someone who dared to talk to them casually and even ordered them to go to him!
"Do you mean... Us?" Beatrix asked the man while pointing to herself and the two princes.
"Yes, come here as I can see you three people have chaotic futures." The mysterious man told them.
Beatrix seems to be drawn to the mysterious man and was about to come forward when Prince Andrew stopped her and flashed her with a look of 'It is just a fraud'. She smiled and convinced him to allow her.
"But it seems fun!" She insisted then looked at the other prince for support. "What do you think, Anders?"
"Sure! After you, My Lady!" Prince Anders replied smoothly, indicating that he will support whatever she wants and he will be at her back all the time.
This blatant support earned a sharp and dangerous glare from Prince Andrew but Prince Anders ignored his imperial brother's murderous stare with a simple shrug! Beatrix and Prince Anders excitedly entered the open tent while Prince Andrew chose to follow because she wants to go and so he will follow... Beatrix sat in front of the mysterious man and excitedly asked.
"Okay, what is my future?" She immediately asked.
"What do you want to know?" The man replied.
"Aren't you the fortune teller? Why can't you predict what she wants to know?" Prince Andrew coldly and rudely replied on her behalf but Beatrix gave him a look of 'Do not be rude, okay?'

"I want to know if my life in the future will be a happy one." She excitedly asked which immediately caught the interest of the other two young men beside her.
The mysterious man shuffled his cards and made her pick three different cards. He revealed the cards that she picked and begin his interpretation.
"The cards say that you will marry twice." The mysterious man told her seriously.
"Preposterous!" The two princes immediately interjected, unable to contain the anger upon hearing that Beatrix will marry twice!
Beatrix gave them a look of 'Where are your manners? Can't you let him finish? I am curious here!' Next, she urged the mysterious man to proceed.
"Your first marriage will be a happy and harmonious one while the second marriage will be a mixture of bliss and challenges." The mysterious man emphasized the word 'challenges'.
"You said that I will marry twice, why?" She curiously asked, feeling very worried.
The man shuffled the cards again and let her pick another three cards then he interpreted again.
"The cards say that your first husband will die tragically giving way to your second marriage." The mysterious man told her nonchalantly.

Enigma's Multiverse: Rewrite
This novel was rewritten with the following goals in mind: -A 'human' MC, that struggles underneath the weight of his past emotions and slowly grows as a person as he deals with past trauma and regret. A relatable protagonist whose actions are in line with his motivations, who may be amiable or ruthless depending on the stakes presented. (Caucasian male protagonist, set in the modern world with alien 'induction' into the cultivation world.) - Competent antagonists that have their own goals and ambitions, instead of always targeting the MC for plot convenience. - An original cultivation system. - Interesting and well fleshed out enemy archetypes. - Hell mode challenge right off the bat. - Lots of action and fighting with psychological elements. - My vision of what a cultivation novel should be like. This is the rewrite of the original Enigma's Multiverse, the first version reads more like a skeleton or a first draft as it was my very first work and I've come a long way since then. A lot of things from the original will be tweaked/enhanced, so it might just end up as a completely different work. Cover Credits- Instagram @just_anime_art_things

Ocean Attuned - A timeloop LitRPG
In the mids of industrialization, Liana, a girl of almost twelve, awakens her flow and follows her newly awakened calling, the ocean, and thus the path of the last remaining god. With the advent of industry, one's status and the accompanying skills slowly grow to be secondary as people choose more recreational skills and classes. The clear exception are flow bringers. Humans with an increased affinity towards flow and attunements are the only real remnants of the age of gods and mysticism. Terrors on the battlefield, saints in hospitals, saviours during drought, are just some examples of the wonderous abilities they display. As civilization grows less dangerous so does the stress that is often associated with the awakening of the flow reduce and only the real talents remain. Please be aware that this is a first draft at best. Tag/Genre analysis: Action: A theme that will appear in the story at some point (probably 15+ chapters in) Adventure: Yes Fantasy: Yes Magic, Beasts, and other fantastical elements are totally at home here. Tragedy: Life is not always fun. For what is fun when there are no downsides. I don't know how heavily I am going to lean into this genre. I want to but don't expect too much. Loop: Yes, though I will not divulge anything else. Just be aware that there isn't nearly as much looping as in MoL for example. Female Lead: Yes, Liana is female. Dungeon: Yes, there are dungeons. Yes, they will get explored. LitRPG: Yes, read the first chapter if you want an example. Magic: most definitely because who doesn't like calling lighting down from the heavens. (Disclaimer: No actual lightning will be called down from the heavens) Mythos: There are gods. So maybe, I don't know if that is enough to qualify? Progression: yes Slice of Life: There is plot, and the story will mostly be about that plot, but there will also be downtime because there can't always be action. The first "loop" especially the first 20-30 chapters will be heavily SoL. And afterward there will be a lot less. Profanity: The ocean (see title) includes sailors and we all know how the stereotypical sailor is. Gore: Hmmm, some but I will have it be not graphic at all.
