《Quem Ri Por Último Ri Melhor》CAPÍTULO VINTE E NOVE
Advertisement
O último dia de aula tinha sido antes mesmo de eu cortar o cabelo e abandonar os óculos, então a minha "mudança de visual" seria uma surpresa especial no dia do baile de formatura.
Falando em mudança de visual, Vic amou meu cabelo, assim como a minha mãe que disse que eu estava a cara do meu pai quando ele tinha a minha idade.
Era o dia anterior ao baile de formatura e eu, Lauren e Vic ainda nem tínhamos saído pra comprar nossas roupas. Então, depois de Vic insistir muito e quase surtar, nós saímos e fomos para o shopping tentar comprar as roupas de última hora. Decidimos comprar as coisas de Vic primeiro, já que ela era a que mais demorava para escolher roupas entre nós.
Entramos em quase dez lojas e Vic ainda não tinha gostado nem experimentado nada. Então, quando estávamos na décima loja, ela finalmente se apaixonou por um vestido longo azul marinho com um belo decote na frente e costas nuas, todo cinturado e modelado, que caiu perfeitamente em seu corpo. Levamos aquele e partimos para a próxima loja para escolher o de Lauren.
Lauren foi bem mais prática. Na primeira loja, ela viu um vestido também longo, rosa fosco, com saia rodada e pensou que levaria aquele. Porém, enquanto eu a esperava decidir se ficaria ou não com o vestido, avistei em uma arara um vestido branco longo, de alcinhas e uma fenda espetacular. De imediato, imaginei Lauren vestida nele. Então, antes dela ir pagar, eu peguei o vestido e perguntei:
-Hey, Lauren, o que você acha desse vestido?
Ela achou o vestido muito bonito e o experimentou. No final das contas, todos concordamos que o vestido branco tinha ficado maravilhoso no corpo dela, e ela então levou o branco.
-Agora falta só a roupa do Matt – Vic observou.

-Ah gente, eu nem preciso de roupa. O blazer cinza do baile pré-formatura tá novinho, a camisa também. Preciso de no máximo uma calça e um par de sapatos sociais novos – eu disse.
-De jeito nenhum! Vamos comprar uma roupa pra você agora! Evan me indicou uma loja ótima de ternos aqui no shopping mesmo, vamos lá – Lauren estava decidida.
Revirei os olhos, mas fui assim mesmo. Quando entramos na loja, percebi que não se tratava de nada barato. Puxei Lauren pelo braço um pouco, só para chamar sua atenção e disse, baixinho:
-Lauren, isso aqui é muito caro. Eu não posso pedir mais dinheiro pra minha mãe, já gastei demais com roupa nos últimos três meses.
-Não esquenta, Matt. A alguns dias, minha mãe participou de um sorteio aqui no shopping e ganhou um vale-compras pra qualquer loja de ternos do shopping. Ela disse que papai não usa ternos nem camisas sociais nem nada do tipo, então me deu o vale. Vamos lá, desencana – ela piscou pra mim e eu me derreti todo.
Comecei a olhar os ternos e camisas, mas as meninas estavam bem mais empolgadas do que eu, então deixei elas se divertirem, trazendo roupas para eu experimentar de tempos em tempos. Cheguei a experimentar até mesmo um paletó rosa choque, só de brincadeira. Então, enquanto as meninas procuravam mais ternos, fui até algumas peças que estavam meio escondidas atrás de outras, e vi um terno vinho, quase fosco. Ele era despojado, e eu o achei muito bonito. Sem ninguém ver, peguei uma camisa branca de gola decorada e uma calça preta justa, e fui até o provador. Quando saí, Vic e Lauren me olharam boquiabertas.
-Okay – Vic disse. – Você não precisa de mais nenhum conselho de moda.
As duas riram e concordaram que eu havia escolhido o melhor conjunto, e levamos tudo dali mesmo, inclusive um sapato social preto brilhante escolhido por Vic.

Steamforged Sorcery [A Steampunk LitRPG]
This is a fantasy story in a steampunk setting, not a sci-fi. The Great War ravaged the face of the earth many years ago. In the years that passed, the world rebuilt, mixing machinery and magic to form something new. Great blimps took to the sky, belching steam and smoke as metal cities sprouted like weeds below. Angel, a talented mage, scours the desert endlessly in search of lost knowledge. When it unexpectedly falls into his hands, he quickly comes to realize that the world is far larger – and far more deadly – than he ever could have predicted. But no amount of danger is going to keep Angel from seeking out greater strength and traveling the world, claiming all the greatest treasure that it has to offer. To most, the desert is a dangerous threat to be feared. To Angel, it’s a land of opportunity, waiting to be exploited. Steamforged Sorcery is, as the title suggests, a LitRPG Steampunk story with heavy focus on magic and scenery. The main character starts out relatively strong (but far from overpowered) but will eventually grow in strength to incredible levels. It is moderately paced and does not progress at ridiculous speeds. Release Schedule: 1,500 words daily Monday-Friday

Legend of the Guild: Point Blank
Status: On hiatus indefinitely, because I'm going to be busy and the story is now at a place where it needs major reconstruction. Curt is a young gunslinger from a small town called Ore Town, situated in a barren wasteland known as the Dusts. While sabotaging the gang threatening his town, Curt is forced to take a leap of faith, literally. He plunges into the sea of clouds expecting death, only to arrive in an entirely new world beneath his own. Saved by a young girl using magic, Curt isn't too sure what to make of his second chance of life. When he meets a fellow Duster who had fallen years ago, he's roped into becoming second-in-command of a brand new guild. Guild duties aren't easy, especially as Curt is tasked to recruit fighters to take on the Grand Guild Tournament, where the winning guild takes home an enormous prize pool -- and most importantly, a mysterious ticket to the fabled "Star City" that exists above the clouds. Going with the flow only takes him so far, and Curt soon finds himself burdened with more responsibility than he bargained for, including the fate of the two worlds. ==============================Wordpress This webnovel is written for fun, and everything posted is essentially a first draft. Beware of typos and lack of creative descriptions — my main priority is to get the story out over writing quality. Still, I hope you enjoy the story. Updates are sporadic, but I aim to release a chapter (~2000-3000 words) at least once a week. Average release time is 1 chapter/3 days. I took inspiration from the lore of the MMO, Dungeon Fighter Online (Dungeon & Fighter), and there may be easter eggs or references to the game, but the story and characters have become wholly original and standalone. [Note: Profanity tag is up because profanity is present, but infrequent]

The Villain's Double Life
“The Villain’s Double Life as the Hero’s Mentor," “Demon Nobles Want to Live Too: A Hero-Raising Simulator for the Transmigrated Villain," “Just Because I’m a Villain Doesn’t Mean I Want the World to End!” Cyrus Calvide was the second son of an aristocratic lord; haughty, vain and power-hungry. One day, when his ancestral inheritance manifested, he discovered he was able to steal other’s powers and abilities using demonic magic. Taking this as a sign that he was destined to rule over others and become the new king of this land, he poisoned his father, killed his elder brother, and embarked on the path to greatness, taking advantage of a demonic invasion to consolidate power and harvest the abilities of others in a cruel and bloody fashion. Until he was summarily defeated by the Hero as a mid-game boss battle and executed for his crimes, of course. When a dedicated fan of the RPG “Next to Eden” awakened in the body of the cruelest future Count, four years before the beginning of the game, he pledged to live humbly. He would let his brother lead and support the Hero from the shadows to ensure the demon invasion would be defeated and he could enjoy life in peace. Rather, he would have, if he hadn’t gotten the Hero’s mentor killed in a freak monster attack before the Hero’s training could even begin. How was he supposed to live a life of peace and luxury if the Hero couldn’t stop the end of the world!? Donning a mask, Cyrus took up mentoring the Hero himself; how hard could it possibly be? . . . Four years later, the kind jack-of-all-trades hero Leon had become a twisted powerhouse: alienating his party members, clearing enemy encounters in a single magical blast, and coldly ignoring the affections of the girl whose love would have allowed him to clear the final boss. He seemed to have plastered himself to his Master’s side, instead. Cyrus bit back his despair while the hero reached out to grasp his hand. “Please stop ignoring the saint, Leon; you can't beat the Demon King by grinding stats! You need the power of love, remember?” “Don’t worry, Master,” Leon smiled as he traced the lines of Cyrus’s palm gently, almost reverently. “I have all the love I need.” VDL is two parts plot and worldbuilding, one part slow-build gay romance, starring a man far too proud to admit he's in over his head and the hero who loves him. Should be updating weekly.
