《THE DARK ENIGMA • TOM RIDDLE》XLII. Trelawney's Predictions
Advertisement
"Welcome, my children. I'm this room, you shall explore the noble art of divination. In this room, you shall discover if you possess the sight!" The crazy woman who calls herself our professor exclaims as she bumps into a table. The class snickers as I roll my eyes with a grin as I lay my head on my palm, sitting across from Draco.
"Hello. I am professor trelawney. Together, we shall cast ourselves into the future! This term, we shall be focusing on tasseomancy, which is the art of reading tea leaves! So please, take the cup of the person sitting opposite of you." She explains as I grab Draco's cup and he grabs mine.
"What do you see? The truth lies buried like a sentence deep within a book, waiting to be read. But first, you must broaden your minds!" She exclaims as she grabs a students head, he looks at her confused with knitted eyebrows.
"First, you must look... beyond!" She exclaims as I shake my head annoyed.
"What a load of rubbish." A voice suddenly says as I flinch at hermiones sudden entrance, I look over to her confused.
"Where the fuck did you come from?" I ask her confused, she simply looks at me with a small grin.
"Been here the entire time, you didn't notice?" She answers in a slight taunting voice as I shake my head and sigh.
"You, boy— is your grandmother quite well?" The professor asks longbottom.
"Yes...?" Longbottom answers nervously as the teacher shakes her head fearfully.
"I-I wouldn't be so sure of that... give me the cup." She says quietly as she grabs the cup from the other male.
"Oh... hmm... pity." Is all she mutters before giving the cup back and walking off.

The two males share a confused look as I snicker slightly at the reactions.
"Broaden your minds!" She exclaims as she walks around the classroom humming.
"What a load of bullshit..." i mutter to Hermione and Draco as hermione sighs with a small grin tugging on her lips.
"Oh... oh! Your aura is pulsing, dear. Are you in the beyond?! I think you are!" She suddenly says to Draco as I grin at him tauntingly.
He just glares at her as the professor stares at him wide eyed.
"Looks at the cup! Tell me what you see!" She suddenly demands as Draco remains glaring at her, keeping up the perfect pureblood mask.
"... it's the grim." Draco states as the teacher gasps and grabs the cup before quickly dropping it back down.
"The grin? What's the grin?" a Gryffindor asks— Seamus was his name if I remember correctly.
"Not the grin, you idiot, the grim. taking form of a giant spectral dog, it's among the darkest omens in our world. It's an omen... of death." Another gryffindor answers as a grin forms on my face.
"This sure will be an interesting year!" I mutter excitedly as Hermione sighs and Draco seems to resist the urge to hit me on the head.

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

Chapter 10 will release soon, and 11 and beyond are ""Part 2"" of the story. In the meantime, check out "Clockwork" my other slice of life LN that I will update regularly. Cryo is an average 18 year old, just graduated high school and is transitioning into college. One notable factor about him is he is incredibly unlucky. Over the summer gets extremely invested in a gacha game known as “Ultima Online” and plays it every single day with his real life friends Gig, Yuso, and Shigeto. Cryo becomes a well-known member of the community because he uploads videos online and livestreams and is especially well-known because he almost never pulls good units from the gacha due to his terrible luck, which makes his anger fun to watch. One day, Admin (Administrators/Developers of the gacha game) send him an email inviting him to their facilities to tour them as a thank-you for making content for the game. On his way to the facilities Cryo stops at a gas station to get some snacks and the gas station is stuck-up by a robber. The robber takes a cute girl hostage and threatens to kill her, so Cryo steps in and bodyslams the robber, causing the robber to aimlessly shoot a bullet which bounces off a rubber tire, just when Cryo thinks he saved the day, the bullet hits him in the head with a lot of force, but not enough to kill him, putting him into a coma. Cryo is then transported to purgatory where a cute goddess decides his fate to be transported to a realm that needed help, promising Cryo if he found 4 legendary swords in this world he would gain re-admittance to the life he once lived. Before being transported to the world that needed assistance the goddess tells him that he can maximize any of his traits, procuring thought into whether Cryo should choose looks, strength, or another trait. After being reminded of his terrible luck in which a flashback to his family dying in a house fire is shown, he decides maximizing his luck trait should be the best choice. He is then transported into this new world, which turns out to be the world of his gacha game, Ultima Online. He meets friends and foes and is tasked with collecting 4 swords that appear as lolis to Cryo. Using the gacha system, he creates a party of strong allies to aid him on his quest to return.
