"Prepare some fruit and leave them to the side. After some time has passed, the fruit will become moldy. Next, collect the green-colored mold from the surfaces of the fruit. After you have collected the mold, I will then tell you the extraction method," Ren Baqian explained.
"Alright. The penicillin you're talking about is the hairy substance on the fruits after they have decayed?" Chen Zisheng asked. Then, before Ren Baqian could reply, he asked again, "I have never heard of the medical terms you said just now. Where did you learn them from?"
"This is medical expertise from the distant west, we called it Western medicine," Ren Baqian replied, "If you want to learn it, I can pass you two books on Western medicine for you to read."
 When Chen Zisheng heard these words, he immediately stood up from his chair in exultation and cupped his hands towards Ren Baqian. He said, "Brother, thank you very much."
Ren Baqian waved his hands. Subsequently, his mind hesitated for a moment. Initially, he was prepared to talk about another matter but swallowed his words after thinking about it.
Typhoid was a troublesome type of disease with the highest mortality rate in the ancient times. Even in modern times, many people still died from it for not treating it in time.
In modern times, the main treatment for typhoid was chloramphenicol. However, it would be very difficult to produce in this world as the conditions weren't right.
Initially, Ren Baqian had been prepared to add in the two medical books, Theory of Typhoid and Typhoid and Diseases, in case the extraction method for penicillin was not enough to exchange for the black mud cream's formula.
However, now that the extraction method for penicillin was adequate to exchange for the black mud cream's formula, there was no point for him to keep these two books. Chen Medical Shop always enjoyed an extremely good reputation in Lan City, and the fees it charged the locals were very low. Ren Baqian was prepared to gift the two books to Chen Zisheng in the hope of doing something good for this world.
"I shall bring the two medical books here next time," Ren Baqian thought to himself. The troublesome thing was that, even though the people in this world spoke the same language as China's, their word characters were not the same. Therefore, Ren Baqian would have to read the two books to Chen Zisheng.
"We shall leave first then. I will ready the things and bring them here four to five days later." Ren Baqian stood up and prepared to leave.
Chen Zisheng sent Ren Baqian and Caretaker Shi to the doorstep.
"You can treat tetanus?" Caretaker Shi asked Ren Baqian after they left Chen Medicinal Shop.
 "I indeed have a way to treat it," Ren Baqian replied while nodding his head.
"How nice it would have been if you were here ten years earlier!" Caretaker Shi sighed.
When Ren Baqian heard these words, he immediately knew Caretaker Shi must have had family members or friends that died from tetanus.
"But, how old would I have been ten years ago? I didn't even know anything at that time."
"That's true. It's still not too late now", Caretaker Shi forced a smile and said.
Following which, Caretaker Shi did not feel like talking any longer.
Ren Baqian went to the blacksmith shop where he previously made the metallic boxes and ordered a few fan blades and a bearing. He was going to need these items to make an indigenous electric fan.
He drew the things he wanted on a paper and showed it to the blacksmith. The blacksmith immediately replied, "These things are easy to make, come back for them two days later."
After having his lunch, Ren Baqian went to the ice cellar to take a look.
He was in charge of the ice cellar but did not come very often. Fortunately, the odd-job workers that Caretaker Shi arranged for him were very hardworking and capable, saving a lot of his time and effort.
Now that the ice cellar was fully filled, the odd-job words were taking a break. Ren Baqian waved his arm and said, "Everyone, take an ice cube and place it under your bed and have a good night's sleep."
In any case, all he needed to do was to make sure the ice cellar was completely filled with ice. Therefore, he might as well make the best use of everything.
"Thank you, Caretaker Ren," the ten odd-job workers chuckled and said. This was a good thing to them.
After walking around the ice cellar, Ren Baqian saw that there was nothing much left to do, and he called a few odd-job workers to follow him and cultivate the sweet potatoes.
When he returned, he saw the two small pandas lying in a shady area. They were so hot that they looked like they did not want to get up.
Ren Baqian filled a basin with water and threw the two small chaps into it.
The two small chaps immediately squeaked and climbed out of the basin. It seemed like they did not like to soak in the basin of water.
They crawled around the ground, and their bodies were covered with mud.
When Ren Baqian saw the two chaps going to rub themselves against him, he quickly took two steps backward.
Tiantian and Gungun squeaked and crawled back to the shady area to lie down once again. After a while, the fur on their bodies dried.
Following which, the two small chaps swayed their heads and climbed back into the basin of water. After soaking themselves in the water, they climbed out of the basin again.
He had no choice but to admit that these two chaps were rather clever.
"Caretaker Ren, their meat isn't nice to eat, there's no point for you to rear them." The one speaking was Teng Dilong. He was a simple and honest individual that possessed huge strength.
However, when he said the two chaps' meat wasn't nice to eat, Ren Baqian felt like giving him a kick.
Other than eating the pandas, don't you have any more uses for them?
"I keep them for fun," Ren Baqian replied casually. "Next time when I'm not in the beast park, all of you have to take care of these two chaps. Give them some water and bamboo leaves. Do you know where to get the bamboo leaves?"
"Yes, don't worry, Caretaker Ren," the few of them said.
Following which, Ren Baqian went and lugged out the bag of sweet potatoes from underneath his bed.
Then, he slowly instructed the odd-job workers on what to do.
First, cut the sweet potatoes into half sections.
Next, get a basin filled with water and place each section in the basin with half of the sweet potato below the water and the other half above.
Use wooden sticks to hold the sweet potatoes in place.
Once they had germinated, they could be used to grow sweet potatoes.
After he taught the odd-job workers everything, someone from the palace came over at the right time to summon him to the palace.
The person who came this time around was Shi Hu. He pulled Ren Baqian to one side and asked, "I heard you have a wager with the people in the imperial kitchen?"
"You can consider it as a wager. The main point of this wager is to expand their horizons," Ren Baqian said delightfully. He turned around and picked up a bag. From the bag, he took out small bags of spices and wrapped them with a piece of cloth. Then, he carried the bundle in his arms and left the beast park.
"These are the things you prepared?" Shi Hu asked with curiosity as he looked at the bundle in Ren Baqian's arms.
He had heard about the incident at the imperial kitchen.
Logically speaking, the imperial kitchen had the best cooks in the country. Whatever they said should be correct.
However, Ren Baqian was someone that appeared out of thin air in the middle of a marching army and could make ice in such a hot environment. Shi Hu felt that he was quite mysterious and that his chance of winning the wager was rather high.
When Shi Hu saw the small bags of spices, he knew they must be Ren Baqian's preparation for the wager.
Soon after, they reached the imperial kitchen. When everyone in the imperial kitchen saw Ren Baqian arrived, they stopped what they were doing and stepped forward. Previously, when Ren Baqian made the wager, everyone was present. These people had been waiting to teach Ren Baqian a lesson. This day had finally arrived.
"Caretaker Ren, show me the spices that you talked about that day. If you can't show them, I will break your legs and hang you on the city wall," Caretaker Gou said with a fierce look on his face.
He really did not believe Ren Baqian could take out spices that were unknown to him.
To him, all the existing spices were already in the imperial kitchen. Even if there were some spices unknown to him, they would be in some unknown places or in places that were extremely faraway.
Could Ren Baqian show him spices that were unknown to him in just a few days' time?
Caretaker Gou did not believe so. Other cooks were waiting to enjoy a show. They wanted to teach this rubbish-uttering scoundrel a lesson.
"Hey, let me expand all of your horizons. Next time when all of you see me, you better stand up straight and call me 'Brother'," Ren Baqian chirped, not feeling angry at all.
After finishing his sentence, he unwrapped the bundle and took out the small bags of spices.
"Can you see them? This is anise, this is cinnamon, this is MSG, this is cumin, this is pepper and this is Thirteen Spices. Have you seen them before?" Ren Baqian listed out the spices one by one.
When everyone saw Ren Baqian took out so many spices, their facial expressions turned ugly. Suddenly, someone said, "Who knows if these things are real or fake?"
Just as that person finished his sentence, Caretaker Gou gave the back of his head a tight slap and said, "Are you stupid?"


In a world where its inhabitants can destroy a city wall single-handedly, the empress has a kirin as her pet, and the imperial palace of Great Xia has a pool containing a dragon. There is also a Sword Mountain where spirit swords occasionally leave in search of a master .

Bootlicking the empress, Ren Baqian ascended to the apex of life.　　

Whoosh-

The wind blew inside the library.

"… Food?"

The Samchunkyo leader wondered if he heard him wrong.

"Yeah. I'm hungry. I'm sure you make pretty decent food. It's all about quality. It doesn't have to be much. Including this person beside me, make enough food for 2 people."

Min Sung then grabbed another book that was lying on the table.

The Samchunkyo leader blankly stared at Min Sung and then looked at the ground with concern.

Min Sung closed the book again and then walked toward the Samchunkyo leader, who was in nothing but his white panties.

The leader instinctively flinched and trembled.

"Hurry up and make the best thing you can make here," Min Sung said right in front of the Samchunkyo leader's face.

The Samchunkyo leader pointed at the red robe that was folded away.

"Can I please put on my clothes first?"

The Samchunkyo leader looked at him with pleading eyes.

"Ho Sung."

In response, Ho Sung Lee lifted his head in the middle of reading a book.

"Yes, Sir!"

"Keep your eye on him. Check that he's not putting poison into the food."

"Yes, Sir. Is it okay that I go alone?"

Ho Sung Lee asked with an anxious face.

"Yeah. You can beat him."

In response to Min Sung's remark, the Samchunkyo leader opened his eyes wide as if he was hurt.

Ho Sung Lee looked at the Samchunkyo leader in pity.
And when the Samchunkyo leader noticed Ho Sung Lee's glance, he looked even more hurt as he put on his clothes.

***

The Samchunkyo leader walked out of the library with Ho Sung Lee.

He normally would have been able to call someone over, but since he was no longer able to use his Aura, he had to look for the people in person.

In addition, there were also guards standing by, but they had all left.

The only ones remaining were those who got paid.

The Samchunkyo leader smiled bitterly.

It wasn't long ago that he lived a life of luxury like an emperor.

But after he met that Korean hunter, he lost all the authority that he previously had.

'Life is a joke.'

The Samchunkyo leader wanted to die as soon as possible.

Just the thought of the humiliation he endured with his clothes off made him furious inside.

He wanted to vomit blood and die.

When he refused to help him with the books of martial arts, he used an alternative and cruel method.

'Ugh… Damn it.'

He thought he was capable of withstanding most tortures, but this was way too cruel.

When he grabbed him by the throat and unleashed his magic spell, a nightmare ensued.

He experienced pain that he had never felt before.

Rather than doing something that would make him lose consciousness, he made sure he stayed present… And the thought of that gave him chills.

The nightmare planted inside his head caused pain all over his body.

Complete darkness.

The Samchunkyo leader struggled within that darkness.

The devil's laughter didn't stop, and it continued to ring from all directions.

The sound of the devil's laughter dug through his eardrums, and the dirty and sticky hands of the devil touched him all over his body and began to eat him alive.

The most shocking part of all was the fact that he could never wake from it.

It was a darkness that couldn't be compared to physical pain.

This was more than just torture. He was being pushed down into Hell.

When the Samchunkyo leader thought back on those memories, his face grew pale, his eyes darkened, and he felt his skin dry up.

And his memory of standing in just his underwear during his so-called punishment made him feel so humiliated that death would have been better.

But why wasn't he going crazy?

That was the most painful question of all.

The Samchunkyo leader shook those thoughts out of his head.

At that moment.

"Cheer up," Ho Sung Lee said.

Th Samchunkyo leader looked at Ho Sung Lee and sighed deeply.

'I can't believe I'm hearing this from that thing.'

He no longer had the energy to even look angry, as he was now nothing but a tiger without its fangs.

"… What's his favorite food?"

The Samchunkyo leader asked with an exhausted voice.

"You don't have to worry about making it healthy. It just has to taste good."

The Samchunkyo leader thought of all the food he had tried in the past.

But he had always been so obsessed with martial arts that he never had a particular interest in food.

Furthermore, he felt heavy when he ate so much, so he never ate much, and in order to grow his muscles, he mostly ate meat along with nutritional supplements.

For that reason, the Samchunkyo leader had no idea what kind of food was considered delicious or satisfying.

"Oh, you don't' have to worry about the menu. You have me."
 
Ho Sung Lee caught on and got rid of the Samchunkyo leader's worries.

In response, the leader sighed.

"Stop sighing. You might get beat up by my master again."

The Samchunkyo leader was about to sigh once more, but he swallowed it back.


***

They reached the kitchen.

The Sachunkyo leader called upon another person. 

He told him he had to prepare delicious food, and that Ho Sung Lee would watch over the process.

In response, the employee asked for just a moment and returned to the kitchen in order to prepare the materials.

Luckily, the soldiers had all left Samchunkyo, but the cooks, who got paid to work, were still there.

Meanwhile, Ho Sung Lee saw all of the employees dressed in modern clothes and sighed at the Samchunkyo leader.

"Hey, Mister."

In response, the Samchunkyo leader flinched and looked at Ho Sung Lee.

He felt rage within him, but his original vigor had died down due to his recent circumstances.

Since Min Sung Kang prevented him from being able to use his Aura, he was nothing more than just a regular person.

"What are you glaring at? And what's with that outfit?"

Ho Sung Lee scanned the Samchunkyo leader's outfit in pity.

Ho Sung Lee knitted his brows at the bright red and silky robe.

"I mean, everyone else is wearing modern clothes. Why are you dressed like that? So embarrassing."

The Samchunkyo leader stared into space.

When he saw his blank face, Ho Sung Lee coughed thinking he might have crossed the line.

"Well, I respect your taste, but I feel like you're going overboard… Sorry if I offended you."

The Samchunkyo leader plopped down on his knees. He grabbed his head and began screaming.

"Aaaaaaagh!"

Ho Sung Lee flinched in response.

"Huh? What's wrong, Mister? I said I'm sorry! Okay, fine. It looks good on you. You look cool!"

Ho Sung Lee tried to comfort him, but there was no use.

The Samchunlyo leader screamed and rolled around on the ground like a crazy person.

Ho Sung Lee sighed and stared at him with discomfort.

"…"

The sight made him feel bad for him.

***
Ho Sung Lee looked around the kitchen where the food was made in Samchunkyo.

Everyone was busy cooking.

Many people worked in this kitchen, and it was full of cooks who were very talented.

Samchunkyo had so much money that they employed the best chefs.

But it wasn't all about skill.

To Min Sung Kang, it was all about a proper meal more than a meal that was served in a classy manner.

Ho Sung Lee watched over the cooks inside the kitchen.

He instructed them on what to make and how to make it.

Ho Sung Lee made his orders very clear.

And then he watched over them as they prepared it.

He almost looked like he had been working as the head of that kitchen for years, which made everyone feel taken aback.

And as for the Samchunkyo leader, he simply stood near the door covered in dirt as if he was a dirty and abandoned broom.

***

Min Sung read the books and memorized all of the technical skills.

What he read, in the beginning, were just basics that were unnecessary, but these detailed skills were things he could make use of.

He was able to use all sorts of abilities even with the weakest force.

The information he read was impressive.

After much contemplation, he acknowledged that this was compiled through extensive research.

He quickly read through the book and went on to the average as well as the advanced books.

The advanced books focused mostly on revelations.

There was a limit to martial arts.

And the only way to surpass that limit was to approach it with a new mindset and method.

There was one thing in particular that Min Sung realized while reading the books, which was that he had only been focusing on increasing the force of his magic spells.

The reason why he was able to increase the force was because he ate a lot of monsters in the Demonic Realm.

He literally swallowed them whole, allowing him to absorb their magic power as well.

However, the speed of advancement was low when one only focused on the output.

In order to claim new territory and become stronger, he had to do things completely differently.

He needed to change his mindset.

While Min Sung thought about that.

Knock, knock-

He heard someone knock.

"Come in," Min Sung replied.

After living in a desolate land, where there wasn't even a single blade of grass and hunger was an everyday reality, Min Sung finally returns to Earth: his home.

"Am I... back from the dead?"

Having lived off the remains of the monsters he had slain for a century, the food on Earth became a heavenly delicacy to him.

"Do NOT get between me and my meal!"

Judgment awaits those who disrupt the champion's meal.

Now, let the feast of the ultimate reincarnator begin!

Almost an hour had passed since the looking-glass played Sylvia's execution. Lucia's lone figure hadn't moved from her spot on the couch. She gazed endlessly at the mirrored glass that now reflected her image.
  Sabina had seen how broken the young girl was and decided to leave the child to her own devices. After all, Sabina was sympathetic to the girl who lost her mother-figure, she wouldn't force her to work right away. 
  In Lucia's mind, thoughts raced with repetion of death—Sylvia's death. Imagery of her nanny's twisted features as she fell to her knees and into her own blood carved itself into her mind; the King's bored look as he watched one of his servants die at the hands of one of his own personal knights.
  "If anyone had to die, it should have been the King," Lucia thought while seething with rage.
  The former princess had seen death before. She'd seen gore and gruesome deaths, even wicked plans of torture while growing up as a Valtori. It was to be expected when your household emblem was that of a snake and daggers; to be expected when your household was the proud royal family of the kingdom Varis. Yet, Sylvia's death seemed the most horrifying of them all. 
  "I hate him. I hate him. I hate him." Lucia's head continued to buzz with hatred and anger as her own words startd to mix with her beloved nanny's death in her thoughts.
  But what could she even do? Lucia, only a child, had long since come to terms with the fact that she was weak, but then Sabina revealed she had power. Unbelievable power according to Sabina; she was a vampire. Unexplored, but when practiced, there's a possibility she could have the power to take down her wretched father.
  Lucia darted up from her seat and onto her own two feet. Sabina who had been occasionally looking up from her spot at the kitchen counter was quite stunned when the hour-long-statue started moving again, but pretended she didn't notice.
  Lucia had a goal. A reason to keep fighting. King Killian along with the rest of her monsterous family had a storm coming their way in the future. For now, Lucia would have to work her way out of her debt and find out more about her powers. 
  Turning around to find Sabina, Lucia asked with a hoarse voice, "Is there any work I can do today?"
  Sabina, pretending she hadn't even noticed Lucia's sudden motivation, or the fact that her eyes were puffy, nodded. "I had Spells write down your chores beneath your sum on the chalkboard over there." She pointed to a black board that hung up on the wall just underneath one of the kitchen cupboards and above Sabina's counters.
  The newly contracted slave moved towards the board of chores where Spells suddenly jumped onto the countertop, puffing out his chest. "Isn't my writing pretty?" Spells asked, pride filling his child-like voice.
  "Y-yeah, absolutely," Lucia responded. Lucia was just impressed Spells could even write. Did he do it with his paws or maybe his mouth. . .? Looking at the board, three chores were displayed beneath a large number of two-thousand gold. Sweeping the kitchen, tidying the library, and watering the plants.
  'Not so bad!' Lucia thought. It was the big number that made her nervous, but the chores seemed fine.
  "Where are your plants?" Lucia asked Sabina.
  "Spells show her to the green house," Sabina didn't even bother looking towards either Lucia or Spells and merely pushed the work for Spells to do. 
  "Aw fine ~ Right away master! Let's get going little fangs," Spells reluctantly answered but chuckled as he gave the former princess a new nickname. He leaped off the counter and onto the wooden floor bounding down the hallway. 
  Lucia wasn't too happy about the new nickname she'd been given by a cat. Between 'child', 'little monster', and now "little fangs', she wondered if they'd ever use her name. Though with Spells' new nickname she came to check if her fangs were out, and they indeed were when she flicked her tongue across her teeth. How embarrassing! 
  As she sauntered after the cat down the hallway and now up some narrow stairs, Lucia was able to retract her fangs having to imagine just her normal teeth. 
  Spells stopped at a small wooden door at the top of the stairs and snickered at the child, "Looks like you learned to put the pointys away! Too bad I already like the nickname I gave you ~" 
  Lucia pouted at the cat, "You're too cruel."
  "I never imagined I'd get to be called cruel by a vampire! This is just too fun! I'm going to enjoy playing with you Little Fangs ~," Spells snickered again from his position on the wooden floor. "Anyway, the green house is just through here, come find me when you're finished."
  Lucia nodded and Spells ran back down the stairs pleased with himself leaving Lucia infront of a door. If she was quite honest with herself, Lucia was looking forward to taking on her new tasks to distract herself from thinking about Sylvia. Even just trying to ask Sabina about her chores earlier, while she made up her mind on a goal, Sylvia's death kept popping up in her thoughts.
  Lucia shook her head as if to shake the thoughts away and opened the door prepared to water some nice plants. The newly contracted slave's eyes widened in amazement as well as horror. 
  So many plants! The room was twice the size of the kitchen which while cozy, was still big, so this room seemed too big for such a house! The roof was all glass letting in the natural light from the sun onto the plants which seemed to cover every surface; the wooden floors, the three tables, shelves. . . And Lucia thought it would be easy. 
  Spotting the watering-hose that was on a small work bench, Lucia got to work. There was quite an abundance of plants, most of which were herbs. Unfortunately there was no labels like most professional gardens had and Lucia was definitely no expert in plants so she was unable to spot anything familiar. 
  While at first Lucia thought watering plants would be such a quick task, the size of the room and the amount of plants made her take back such thoughts, but fortunately for her, the amount of time wasn't too bad. Managing to finish within fourty-five minutes Lucia was quite proud of herself, though not the part where she almost tripped over the hose. . . Yet when such a clumsy action happened, it was as if her body acted on itself; stabilizing her frame instantly though she was sure she'd take a tumble. 
  Lucia headed back down the creaky floorboards and intended to find Spells.
  'Where is he?' Lucia thought as she checked around the kitchen. She was going to ask Sabina, but she seemed so engrossed in her own work she decided against that idea. Next the living room, then the room she stayed in last night. . . 'Don't tell me he's in Sabina's room," Lucia prayed to herself when she looked at the slightly open door opposite from the spare room. 
  Taking a glance at Sabina who was still focused on her own work, Lucia decided to take the risk to find that stupid cat. As if she was on air, her steps were silent as she went to further push the door open and peeked inside. An overwhelming presence snapped at her senses telling her to jump backwards. So she did. Just in time too! A shadowy hand had lunged forward to grab at her collar, claws and all. An unwordly hiss escaped Lucia's lips to which she quickly covered her mouth in shock.  
  The shadowy figure seemed to chuckle as such a response. The creatures voice was deep and scratchy, as if it had swallowed gravel. 
  "S-Sabi-!" Lucia finally had the nerve to call out to the adult. 
  "Oh hush! Don't involve master ~ She'll get mad at us both for interrupting her work time!" the voice spoke with such a deep tone, yet the way it spoke sounded almost familiar. 
  'W-wait! Did it just say "master"? Did Sabina have another familiar?' Lucia panicked, she must be truly powerful. 
  "Are you another one of Sabina's familiars?" Lucia asked, her distance still far away from the door and her eyes adjusting to see the dark figure. 
  "You don't recognize me! Too bad ~" the creature mused on. "Little Fangs, you even found yourself a warning hiss, I thought you were growing!"
  Spells. He's the only one to use such a ridiculous nickname. "I thought you were a cat?"
  As if her words sparked a change, the dark, intimidating, shadow figure morphed info a small, fluffy, black cat. "It is really you!"
  "You didn't think I came to be her familiar just because I was cat did you? You're so stupid ~ You don't even seem scared. What gives! I planned to surprise you, even give you a good scratch so you'd know what I can do!" Spells child-like voice returned and his mocking continued. He even seemed genuinely upset he couldn't toy with the young girl.
  "You wanted to scare me?" Lucia thought this cat was so cruel. Spells had won in the end though, she was scared of his shadowy form, not that she'd let him know that if he truly thought she wasn't shaken up; yet, part of her also felt . . . capable?
  "Yeah ~ I thought it would be fun! Oh well, with the money you owe our master you'll be here long enough for me to have some entertainment," Spells words made Lucia sigh. 
  "You told me to come find you when I finished," Lucia reverted back to her original goal.
  "Ah yes! The library is next then," Spells nodded in agreement with himself before moving out of Sabina's room and just further down the hallway. He paused infront of a door, "Understand that everything in this house belongs to Master, even you and I. If you want to read something, check with her first. Do not act according to your own will."
  While she only met Spells today, he didn't seem the type to be so serious, yet when he spoke just now he sounded quite mature. 
  "I understand," Lucia responded, nodding her head. 
  Spells stepped out of the way of the door, "The library is just in there. There's some organization to the disaster that is our master's work space, so try and work with it."
  "Understood." Lucia then opened the door and paled at such a sight. 
  The library room was about the same size as the indoor garden on the second level, yet with the amount of floor-to-ceiling shelves, the room felt confining. Books and papers of all kinds appeared everywhere; the shelves themselves messy with books shoved ontop of eachother without thought, the desk that appeared to be by a window blocking the daylight with towers of books. 
  Where could she even start! It's all a mess! Lucia began by looking at the tall and wide shelves and eventually began to find some sort of a hint at what the library once was organized like. On the right side of the room seemed to hold more magical and educational books, whereas the left side included books of fiction and entertainment, though there was quite a majority more of the former than the latter of books. 
  Getting to work, Lucia started with the right side of the room and sorted though the selection of books. While doing so, she found quite a few books that caught her eyes; mathematics, literature teaching, foreign language studies—it was all so amazing! The young girl who once took pride in her own education was excited for her new findings and hoped Sabina would let her borrow a few.
  Gradually, Lucia was able to split the books from the right side of rhe room and moved over to the left side, bringing a long with her stacks of fictional works. While going through almost every title and checking to see which side of the room the books best belonged in, her eyes managed to catch some compelling titles she found herself intruged by. 'Creatures of the Night', 'Legends of the Four Countries', and even one such text, 'Villainous Heroes'. 
  The young vampire felt most drawn to the book, 'Creatures of the Night', after all Vampires were known to go by such a title in tales, it must contain something on them!
  Lucia, forgetting her agreement to Spells, flipped open the pages of the musty and wrinkled book, scanning for the word 'Vampire'. A few chapters in and the word finally appeared as a title for its own three sections. 
  Illustrated pictures of what a vampire was supposed to look like scattered various pages, among with drawings of fangs and even what a victim of a vampire would look like. Lucia stared blankly at the pages that described Vampires as wicked and manipulative monsters that had died and now lived an immortal life. Wait, had she died? Sabina had used the term "pure blooded" when describing the kind of vampire she was, and the former princess only knew such a term when talking about the Queen's dogs. . .
  Lucia let out a sigh and closed the book. It seemed that any information held within the pages were stories and tales that weren't familiar to her own case. 
  "What was I expecting from children's stories?" Lucia muttered allowed in the empty room.
  The newly contacted slave returned to work and finished sorting the books in their correct locations and by author's last name within five hours of work. By the time she was able to see out the window from clearing the books, she noticed the Sun's position in the west now, soon it would be setting since it was the winter. She really had spent all day working! 
  Lucia exited the library and went to find Spells for her last task. Spells was fast asleep on the bottom step as she silently made her way down the stairs. 
  "Spells," Lucia whispered and the cat sprung awake in horror. 
  "Why are you creeping up on me!" Spells shouted. 
  "I didn't want to wake you rudely," Lucia replied. Her steps were rather quiet though, almost as if she was walking on air, an experience she felt earlier when she didn't want Sabina to catch her going into her room
  "Tch. Vampires," Spells scoffed and rolled his big green eyes. 
  "I finished in the library," Lucia ignored Spells' comment. 
  "The broom is by the fridge, you only need to sweep up the kitchen today," Spells spoke and lead her back to the kitchen. 
  Looking around the empty kitchen, Lucia glanced at Spells in confusion. "Master went out," was all he said before settling down on her empty stool and going to sleep.
  'Very helpful', the young girl thought to herself, but started her task as sweeping the snipped plants and crumbs that were on the kitchen tile. She finished within ten minutes and decided to take her own tour around the house now that she had the chance. 
  The layout of the house was fairly chaotic, and when Spells had lead her to different rooms of the house that seemed small, each door opened up to a large space. How mysterious! The kitchen and living room were within the same room while a hallway connecting from the kitchen to the narrow set of stairs that lead up to the garden room held Sabina's room, the bathroom, the library, and the spare room. Except, there seemed to be another door that was inbetween the bathroom and the library. Just as Lucia was about to open the door, Sabina's voice boomed from the kitchen. Lucia paled in fear.

Lucia Emilia Valtori. Misfortune always fell upon this poor princess. Forgotten and tossed aside by her own family, she was sold to the famous Red Witch. Little did the Valtori royals realize, they had tossed aside the true heir of the throne who has more power than an army of humans and she wants revenge.

Valek Morozov. Always given everything until one day his father wanted him to learn what it meant to have nothing before taking his place as the head of the Bratva. Only now did he start developing his family nature while alone on the streets. 

  The two encounter one another trying to keep their secrets and identity to themselves, but the pair learn they're more similar than they could imagine. 

  Love. Revenge. Powers. 

  This is their journey.

"Good morning Glen Cove!"

I heard my alarm clock go off and I reach over and smack it. I sit up, scratching my head and think about my strange dream. It was so real and vivid; I didn't know quite what to think. I look at the time and see it is now 8:01 am.

[Crap I got to meet my sister in a bit.]

Memories of my dream rush to my head and I start getting an ominous feeling. I grab my phone and call my sister.

Ring. Ring. Ring.

"Hey bro! Was up?"

"Hey, Maya. I don't think we should go to that debate today. I got a bad feeling about it; I'll take you anywhere else just not to the mall today."  

"Oh, come on! It's just like you to flake out on me like that. If you don't want to go, then don't go, I'll go myself."  

"No! I'm not trying to get out of it, I just had a dream...look I can't really explain it."  

"Look I have to get ready. If I don't see you at the mall then fine. Goodbye"  

She hangs up on me and I sat there lost in thought. The scenery flashes around me and I find myself standing in the food court of the mall. Looking around confused I see my sister walk over to me. 
 
"So, look who decided to show up."  

"Hey, Maya. Look I'm sorry but I really did have a bad feeling about being here today."
  
"Yeah, yeah. Let's go before the seats are gone."  

The scenery flashes again and this time I find myself lying in Maya's lap. I can see her talking to me but there is no sound. I guess I am dying right here? What are these anyway? Memories? Another flash later and I am sitting in a chair in front of a desk with a macho-man. 
 
"So, seeing as how you were the cause of the incident as well as your past crimes, you have been judged as needing rehabilitation."  

Wait, what!? This again!? I try to scream out and plead my case, but it seems I can't make any sound. The man hits the enter key and the scenery flashes again. I am now inside of my prison cell. I look around and see the surroundings making me shiver.  

"No please! I don't want to relive this part again. I can't take it."  

My cell door opens and the empress of evil is standing in front of me.  
.  
.  
.  
I receive so many beatings again, and again, and again. Neira is simply breaking my body as fast as it heals. Then she just leaves. My surroundings flash again and this time I am chained to the pillar and I let out a sob.  

"Please...just stop already."  

I endure this torture too until whatever force is holding me here is done. After a while I find myself running from the wolves and it always ends with my fight with the alpha. Then just as the alpha jumps at me time stops. I look around in confusion with a slight hope that maybe this will finally stop.  

"So now we can finally talk for real."  

Hearing this mysterious voice, I look at its source. It came from a small child with long black hair and piercing green eyes. Her body is completely covered in scars and her presence reminds me of a wild animal. She is wearing some leather clothing that is more like a simple sleeveless one-piece robe or dress. This must be Allynna. This must be...me.  

"So, you finally realize who I am." she says  

"I do. But where is this? Your memories?"  

"No. These are our memories. It seems when you activated when we turned four, the merging of our memories plus the traumatic experience shattered our minds."  

I nod at her kind of understanding a bit of what happened while she continues.  

"While we are technically one person Allynna's mind and your mind didn't want to fuse properly. So, because of that our soul is also in disarray. Leveling up any more while in disarray may actually be fatal for us."  

"Wait! What do you mean its fatal?" I say with anger.  

"Do you remember how that demi-god treated us? Not even bothering to hear our story? Also, remember Neira and what she did. How about our current situation?"  

"Of course, I remember. How could I not?"  

She looks at me giving me a crooked smile.  

"Good. Then for us to merge properly we need to be on the same page. What I want is simple, to pay back those that hurt us and others that do so in the future. With a fury that shall burn like wildfire"  

I understand where she is coming from. I want to get revenge too. But that is impossible the ones that did this to us are people I can't even touch.  

"Look, I want revenge just as much as you do but it's impossible now. The ones that hurt us we can't do anything about it."  

She sighs and looks disappointed, then speaks.  

"I see. So, you choose that answer. You simply need to realize nothing is impossible for pure fury. The sooner you realize this the better. You will wake up soon and don't worry I'll talk to you again." 
 
With that, she and the scenery around me fade into dust and I am left in the darkness again.  

I feel something wet against me I also hear waves and the sounds of nature. I open my eyes and I find myself lying down on a sandy shore. Next to me is the dead body of a wolf. Looking around I see that I am standing on the shore of a large river, so large I can barely make out the other side. I start to inspect my body and grimace when I come to the wolf bite on my arm.  

"Ow, that hurts. I need to find something that can heal this."  

"Why don't we find some herbs. You have that appraisal ability, right?" 
 
She or myself is right. I check for my satchel and find it is still there. I throw out anything that was ruined by the water. I then look down at the wolf and decide to take it with me, at least it will be something to eat. Carrying the wolf over my shoulder similar to a fireman carry, I begin to search the various plants using my appraisal. It should give me a rough estimate as to which ones have a healing property and which don't. After a couple of hours of searching, I find a variety of possible plants. I move back to the river and set the wolf down. I then remove plants that need to be consumed so I only have the ones that need to be applied externally. Grabbing two rocks, one flat and one round, I place the various plants on the flat one. I add just a bit of water and I begin grinding the plants following my appraisal as best I can, determining which part of the plant I can use. Doing this leveled up my survival skill as well as granting me the alchemy skill. Once I had a nice yellow paste, I began to rub it into my wounds hoping this doesn't lead to an infection.  

I began looking around for a new place to camp. I was getting seriously hungry and had no idea how long I was out for. Thinking about it I am actually pretty lucky that I wasn't found by an animal or something. After finding a suitable location, I get to work on the wolf. It was kind of hard to do as rigor had already set in but at this point, I really didn't care I needed food. Once I finally had the meat ready, I started on the campfire and began cooking. The meat was a bit tough but it did its job I suppose. I then decided to call it for the night.  

The next morning, I decided to explore the river while looking for things I could eat for breakfast. I did manage to find some more arels and some berries that were not poisonous either, so I guess a fruit breakfast it is. While wandering around aimlessly I came across a large tree growing at an odd angle, intrigued I decided to investigate it. Upon closer inspection, I found out that the reason the tree was growing at the odd angle was because it was growing over a wooden cabin.  

I walked towards the treehouse and found that it was in fairly good shape. It definitely looked like it has been here a while. Walking up to the door I realized that the door was all crooked and didn't really close properly, I had to lift the door up a bit to open it. Walking inside I found it was all just one room, an old bed in the corner, basic kitchen in the opposite corner and the rest of the room was filled with old books, bookshelves, and other study materials.  

[I think I can make this into my new home.]  

I started looking around the house first going to the kitchen. The stove was a stone oven/stove combo. I inspected the chimney area and went outside to see if it was damaged. It looked intact which was good, I'll have to start it up later to be sure I can use it without smoke coming back into the house. Most of the metal cookware was in pretty great shape after wiping the dust off the pots and pans gave off a blackish green hue, it looked pretty cool. The other cookware was rusted pretty badly and had to be tossed. The bed was in serious need of dusting and cleaning which I proceeded to do. The mattress was made from some soft material, I wasn't quite sure what, but I hung it over a branch and beat it with a stick to dust it out.  

I proceeded to take the blanket to the river to wash it as best as I could and then brought it back and hung it out to dry. I really wanted to check out the rest of the house, it looked like some hermit lived there for who knows how long. I started to poke around through the books trying to see what they were when I came across a sudden realization...I can't read. Putting that aside for later I straighten out the books and other documents and do my best trying to clean up. Old herbs and food were tossed out and the kitchen area was cleaned up. I decided to try the stove, with a bucket of water handy, I started it up and had a small fire going. After a few moments, I realized that the smoke wasn't coming back in the house. I walked outside and viewed the chimney and saw it was working properly.  

After I was done cleaning It was past midday, so I brought in the mattress and the blanket and made up the bed. I decided to go out and hunt for some food now I could somewhat properly cook something. Finding another branch, I quickly whittled it down like a spear and left in search of food.  

I got pretty good at hunting, not the best but I did alright. Wandering through the woods I was searching for any signs of an animal. Finding some sign of movement and tracks I move towards my prey. Sitting on a tree was another elessir. This time I'm going to get my revenge. This time I have been practicing my throwing. I pick up a rock and throw it at the fake dragon. It manages to hit square in the body dropping it the found. While it is stunned, I move in with my knife and quickly dealt the finishing blow.  

"YES! I did it!" Before I can finish my celebration, I get a notification. 
 
You leveled up!  

A terrible headache, waves over my head dropping me to my knees. After a few moments, the pain subsides. I guess that is from the effect of leveling up. I pick up my food and head back to the house. 
 
Back at the house, I start up a fire in the stove and then I go and fill a pot with water and set it on the stove to boil. I take my elessir out towards the river where I dismantle and clean it by the river. I got a bit better at it since I first started this and for something as small as the elessir, I can do it in about 30 minutes. I return to my home and then proceed to place any small utensils in the boiling water. Using the hot water, I try to clean as many dishes as I can. Once I was done, I decided to cook the meat in a pan. I wish I some herbs or salt to cook with. I'll have to find some tomorrow. After dinner was done, I brought my plate over to the study area. There was a desk in a corner hidden by a pile of books earlier, I guess the owner ate and studied.  

Using the remaining light I have I then open a few books trying to study the characters while I chow down on mutant meat. Once it starts getting dark, I close the books and I rub my temples.  

"I guess it will be harder to learn how to read than I thought."  

"Why don't we ask that goddess? She might be able to help us."  

"Yeah, I suppose you're right." 
 
Going over the stove, I make sure the fire is out and then made my way to the old bed.
  
[This will be my first time sleeping in a bed since I've been here]  

I lay down and immediately fall asleep.  

I found myself on a beach somewhere. It looked to be about noon or so. I looked around and I spotted a figure lying face down on a towel. As I approached, I recognized the figure as Teona. She is wearing a bikini enjoying her sunbathing while reading a fashion magazine. Currently, her top is undone and she is just lying on her stomach with what appears to be some sunscreen lying next to her. 
 
"Hey, Teona. I am guessing this is a dream?"  

Without looking up at me she replies.  

"Sort of. When you fell asleep, I pulled you into my realm. Thanks to your constant misfortune I was able to gain more strength. Now I have an older body and a beach."  

"Oh yay...so glad  my misfortune can help." I sarcastically reply.  

"Ha! I've been watching you lately and I know you are trying to read now."  

"I would call you a stalker but I guess that what gods and goddesses do."  

"Yup! That's right I am stalking you. Seriously though thank you for the extra power you've given me I'll give you a little gift. I will grant you a skill to read and speak your native language, but it will be level 1 so you won't understand everything at the beginning."
  
"Awesome and with this I can learn the rest of the language and read those books."  


"There is an added bonus too. By spending time around other languages you can pick those up as well." 
 
This language skill is badass. I'll be able to learn all the languages. 
 
"Oh yeah. I have something I wanted to ask you. Why do you get so much power from me?" 
 
She closes her magazine, puts on her sunglasses and rolls over on her back.  

[Damn goddess at least have some shame.]  

"Oh, don't be so shy we're both girls here. Anyway, to answer your question, your misfortune is of the divine variety." 
 
Noticing my discomfort, she quickly puts her top back and continues.  

"So, since your misfortune really all started because of a demi-god your misfortune changed to a divine misfortune. To top it all off you got an accidental soul curse which is a divine curse, so the energy I receive from you would be like the equivalent of two gods with a soul curse."  

"Wow, I really had no idea it was that bad."  

"Basically, I could live a comfortable life living of your misfortune alone."  

"I'm glad I could feed you." I roll my eyes and cross my arms.  

"Ha, yes thank you. But I am more surprised you managed to find that house. I am really looking forward to what you learn there."  

Before I can respond she stands up and walks over to me.  

"Well, it's almost time for you to wake up. Please stop by again soon, I'll have snacks ready next time."  

I open my eyes and I am laying in my new bed. I can't quite describe it but the feeling of waking up in my own home now brings some tears to my eyes. I did it, I finally have a place to call home.   

I perform my morning chores of finding some food for breakfast and gathering any other food I can to store in my kitchen. After I finish with that, I decide it is time to investigate some of the books. After looking through the books I found out that a lot of them are books of magic theory and whatnot. I sort through them as best I can, making different piles of what I believe might be beginner, intermediate, and advanced books. After another hour or so I find a couple that could be a start for me and decided to start reading trying to understand what I am reading and level up my language skill.  

I go and get dinner ready and sit back down to study. From what I can gather, in order to use mana, one must first build their soul palace. A soul palace is a sort of inner dimension, that is different for everyone, that allows the flow and storing of mana in the body. So that is my first goal there, is building my soul palace. To do so I need to meditate by honing all my senses into my body and feel myself. It sounds kind of confusing but at the same time I kind of get it.  

I spend the rest of the day practicing this trying to understand how it works. With nothing happening, I open my eyes and find it is already dark out. With nothing else better to do, I turn in for the night. 
 
This becomes my daily routine for three weeks. Mornings are dedicated to chores and finding food. Afternoons I dedicate myself to meditating trying to build my soul palace. At the end of the third week, I finally have my breakthrough. I was meditating like usual, all my senses focused on me.  

So, I need to feel myself. How do I do that? I begin by trying to hear all my internal organs, to feel them, to see them, but that doesn't work. Wait what is considered myself? I ponder this question then an epiphany hits me, what id myself is both of my selves. As I think this a familiar voice rings out.  

"Good job on getting here yourself."  

I am standing inside of a prison cell and in front of me is Allynna.  

"So, you ready to take me up on my offer?" 
 
I think for a moment before I answer.  

"You want to get revenge even if it means we die trying to do it?"  

"Dying is inconsequential. The hate that burns in me must be released. Those that wrong us must be punished, simple."  

"Ha! I must be crazy now for even considering it. So, if I accept and we die, you better not have any regrets."  

"Won't die. We will be stronger. We must get stronger. You have that game system, use it and get revenge."  

You know she is right. I am weak right now but I can get stronger. This might actually work. 
 
"Look I can't promise you anything about getting revenge on the demi-god but everyone's I can do."  

"Doesn't matter. As long as you try."  

So that what the issue was. My old self was simply running away from my problems hoping they would disappear while the current me wanted to take action.  

"Ok, I won't run away no more. I'll get stronger and find a way to get revenge."  

"Good."  

She walks towards me and the entire cell is engulfed in flames. I am being burned alive and the pain is almost unbearable but my hatred carries me through eventually numbing me to the pain. Next thing I know I am in the bedroom of my old apartment. My bed on one side, the computer desk, and the PC on the other. I have my usual gaming posters up. My shelves that held my figurines are mostly empty now there are two figures up. One is a black shadowy figure and the other is of Teona clad in her beachwear laying on a towel.

So this must be my soul palace. A twisted grin spreads across my face.

Jesse Owens was just an average guy going on a family outing with his sister to the mall. After a tragic accident claims the life of Jesse, he finds himself in the afterlife. To make matters worse when Jesse goes through the judging process, he was misjudged as a criminal mastermind who also happens to be a woman named Jesse Owens. Reincarnated as a girl and with a cursed reincarnation, Jesse must now try to survive in his new world.

After a good night's sleep, she was excited to get up and start her day. First order of business: get a phone. So she hopped on the bus that had a stop right outside her door and drove to an electronic store. " Hi. I want to buy a phone could you please help me and recommend one or two phones." Vali greeted. "Do you have a preference?" the store clerk asked. In the end, Val chose a simple prepaid mobile. Outside the shop, she called the realtor and made an appointment to meet in one hour in front of the building.

One hour later Vali was the proud owner of a two-story building in midtown Manhatten. In her old world, she was never allowed to own a property, so she was super excited to start renovating her space. 

Valerie started the renovation with banishing all the dust, rubbles and everything else that was lying around. The biggest room in the house was also the room that Vali designated to be the bistro. The front door would lead directly to the big storeroom. There were also two store windows next to the door. The storefront was facing a buzzing street and a bus stop was also there. So the location couldn't be better to open business. Vali vanished the walls in the back of the room and made new ones a little bit further back. One of the two rooms in the back was going to be a toilet and the other room would be the kitchen with the staircase going up to her flat. 

She conjured up a beautiful dark hardwood floor and colored the walls a nice warm beige. The smaller of the two rooms in the back was going to be the toilet and the bigger one of those two the kitchen. 
She wanted to have an open kitchen so that her guests could observe her and vice versa. So she vanished the upper half of the wall facing the bistro and replaced it with glass. A long bar was placed before the glass wall so that people could not only watch her cooking but also watch when she is brewing their coffee. Then she conjured beige-colored tables, chairs and she placed benches at the corner of the front window. The two small front windows were changed to one big window to let as much sunlight in as possible. 
She cast a repairing spell for the plumbing, electrical wiring, and the ceiling and conjured up warm and bright lamps that looked like stars. The kitchen facility she made state of the art, modern and kept in chrome like one of the kitchen she saw on the internet.  The toilet area was going to be divided into three parts. After coming in you would be standing in the entrance area where the washbasin was located, the other two doors would lead to the two toilets: one for women and one for men. 
Upstairs Valerie made the living room light grey and white-colored with red accents here and there. Vali conjured up a big fireplace at one of the walls, the newest television above it and a big, red, soft and cushy couch in front of it. 
The bedroom didn't get much consideration because she didn't plan on ever sleeping in there. She made the walls white, the floor grey and put a normal, white double bed in the center.  In her opinion, the most important room was the bathroom. She decorated it with white and black tiles, put a gigantic freestanding bathtub in one of the corners and at the opposite end of the room she conjured up a rain shower. A toilet and a really big sink were placed on the other wall. 
The walk-in wardrobe was fitted with white, beautifully decorated cabinets. In the back of one of those cabinets, she made a doorframe and bespelled it with an extension charm so that behind this door several more rooms came into existence. The beauty of extension spells was that you couldn't see them from the outside, so nobody would know about her secret base behind her wardrobe.  

One room was designated to be a laboratory where she could brew her potions, test her new spells or produce new armor. Then there was a room that functioned as a greenhouse and animal shelter. Valerie collected countless magical plants over the course of her life. Every time she came across a magical animal during one of her mission she would spell them into stasis and take them with her. Her original plan was to buy a house in the countryside after the war and there she would keep those animals in her garden.  
Over the years she collected and bought thousands of books, which she stored in her ring. Reading and collecting books was the only pleasure she allowed herself to have. Valerie conjured up mahogany bookshelves and filled them with her books, and to complete her cozy library she made two yellow, really soft and inviting looking armchairs with floor lamps beside them. 
The last room would be her real bedroom. After years of battles and torture, she wouldn't feel at ease if her sleeping place was easily accessible. 
For her sleeping quarters, she liked the colors light blue, beige and white. 
Last but not least Valerie warded her bedroom with charms to only let people inside that she approved off. Then she put an illusion on the doorway, to her extended space, so that it looked like the backside of her cabinet. She enchanted her whole apartment with a spell to prevent someone with bad intentions to get in. 
Downstairs she set enchantments so that people, who truly needed a place where they could relax, be themselves and let the stress of their normal lives behind them, would find her place. Vali wanted to make a bistro where people would visit to recharge and would feel better after they left. The plan was to serve the best coffee in town and bake muffins and cakes that would compliment the coffee. There would be no fixed menu only one lunch meal, that would change weekly, so she had time to perfect the next dish she was going to serve the following week. 

Valerie knew she had to brush up on her knowledge of earth cooking and coffee making so she signed up on a few cooking courses. This would keep her busy in the mornings for the next few weeks. In the afternoon she would explore her new world. She could teleport to every part of the earth if she saw a picture, with the help of google maps she could visit everywhere. And she used this time to get some answers to her questions: What weapons exist in this world? What exactly are satellites and can they track her with them? How does her magic hold up against technologies? What kind of mutants are there? How far along are they in health care? Are there epidemics?

Valerie is a magical being from an alternative earth called Terra. She flees from the scientist that held her captive through a magical portal and lands on Earth-616 (Marvel Universe). Despite being happy to be away from her world, she feels lonely and starts looking for people like her. During her search, she witnesses the Iron Man suit which looks magical to her. So she visits Tony Stark to take a closer look.

Since the kitchen was empty, Kyro left the apartment once the fox got tired and went away to take a nap. He drove to the nearest store that sold recently butchered animals and got some fresh chicken breasts. The lady at the counter tried to entice him into buying more, but he managed to escape her plans once more. 

Back home, he found the apartment silent as a grave. Upon entrance, he saw the fox sleeping on the sofa where he last saw it, but Lucy was nowhere in sight. He placed his peace offering on the counter in the kitchen and went in search of the cat. 

There were a couple places Lucy liked to sulk in the most, but a few of them were out of order by now. Under the bed was taken by the fox as its hiding place, while it was now sleeping in the living room. This meant that only the study was free. 

Kyro's eyes first went to the shadows under the desk, but there was nothing there. He then checked the rest of the room, to little more luck. Could Lucy have hid in the living room anyway? Despite the fox sleeping there? 

It was unlikely. He stepped into the room and pivoted on his heel, taking a thorough look around. Then, he spotted something in the corner of his eye.

Up above, at one of the top shelves, a dark silhouette was squeezed atop the books. Lucy had done his best to hide himself, but it wasn't easy with all that fur. Parts of it were hanging on the side, along with the tail that hadn't fit into the free space. 

"Are you certain that's comfortable?" 

The ability of cats to sleep everywhere was truly wondrous. Kyro was not certain how Lucy got up that high, let alone how he found it tolerable to rest on all those different-sized book that must be cutting into his stomach. Not to mention that he didn't even fit fully into the space there and a part of him was hanging on the side. 

With the tips of his fingers, Kyro could reach the cat, but he didn't want to just drag it down. That's why he brought over a chair and got up on it to get close to His Sulking Majesty. 

"Are you done yet?" he asked. 

Lucy meowed at him with obvious anger and his claws extended, but he didn't move. This was probably more related to there being no space than the cat not wishing to escape, though. 

"Won't you reconsider it? I brought something for you." Kyro extended his hand to let Lucy smell the chicken on him, but the cat did not give him the opportunity. 

As if having gone crazy, it clawed at the books and tried to get out. There wasn't much space and his movements weren't careful, so the next moment he was falling with a loud screech. Kyro grabbed him in midair, but the cat didn't care and continued squirming, which led to him losing his balance and falling down. 

Once they were on the ground, Lucy screeched again and ran away after shaking his fur a bit to have it fall into place. 

"Sometimes, I really wonder why I try so hard for you." Kyro massaged his side; there was probably gonna be a bruise there. "Damn cat." 

The little fox came over, probably woken up by the commotion. Its ears were flickering right and left as it took note of the chair, the couple fallen books, and Kyro on the ground. Then, the fox sat down, not coming closer to him. 

"Are you judging me now?" he asked, pushing himself off the ground. He dusted himself off and picked the books up to return them to their shelves. There didn't seem to be any damage on the covers, so he was quite glad for it. 

The same couldn't be said about his hands, however. Now that he raised them up, he saw that they were marred with dozens of scratches, a couple of them deep enough to draw a drop of blood. With a light curse, he went into the bathroom to clean himself up. 

Logic told him that the cat couldn't be faulted, but it wasn't easy not to blame him. The damn monster hadn't held back on the scratching in the slightest. 

Still, he returned to the kitchen after cleaning his hands and placed the chicken breasts into Lucy's bowl. The cat wouldn't come out here in a while, so he brought it to the bedroom, near the bed under which Lucy was hiding. 

"Iris, come," he called the fox so it wouldn't steal the food and led it into the living room. They sat down to watch a movie, and the fox instantly stole the remote control to make sure the channel stayed on the romance one. Their fight lasted for good five minutes before Kyro gave up. 

His pets were having their own thoughts today, not caring for him in the slightest. 'Whatever, I can sit through this for some half an hour before sleep. I won't die. Probably.' 

He was half-asleep already when the fox came over to lie down on his knees. It cooed gently and returned to watching the movie. He patted its head, smiling slightly. At least the fox didn't abandon him fully. 

When he was about to stand up to go to sleep, a dark shadow jumped on the sofa and came to rest by his side. Lucy didn't say anything, just lay down quietly next to his leg. Kyro moved his hand to stroke the cat's fur, and Lucy licked his fingers, right where they were scratched. 

This was… Kyro looked up at the movie that had been going for only half an hour, then the pets looking very comfortable around him, and breathed out heavily. It seemed like they were going to watch this chick flick to the end.

Iris didn’t think much of her life until one day she found herself in the body of a baby fox. Before she could wrap her head around it, she was bullied by a kid and saved by a handsome stranger. It was almost like a fairy tale ending, just why is she still a fox?! Is there like a certain duration or will she need to stay like this forever? No way!

Author's Note:

Hey guys it's been a long time since I last updated this book. I am sincerely apologizing for the delay. I was severely sick and everything has a conflict with my university days and it's keeping me occupied all the time. I'll try my best to update more chapters for the up coming days. 

---

(Qin Zetian's POV)

I was occupied with cooking meals for everyone. Sometimes I make it as a stress relieving passion. The fiance who suddenly appeared out of thin air became someone who holds the strongest rank in the martial arts world. It somehow makes me wonder how he became who is he right now in spite of the gayish attitude that I'm getting from him. 

He acts like a brat most of the time, yet from the observations that I have everyone in his kingdom highly respects him. Despite of his flaws, he still looks like a god descending from the immortal realm. Well technically he came from a kingdom made of fantasy, it's no wonder. He helped me when I was wounded, but the intentions of the emperor his father was still unknown. I know the godly prince won't doubt himself and kill me that night, but the horse grew wings and flew me away. 

I think I need to visit the library once more and study more from the history of this era. I think my father had hidden some literary books somewhere and I might have missed to read those books. Or I can ask my brothers about these. If there are really seven continents existing in this world. I can somehow compare it with the seven continents that earth has. But the continents in the modern world has unions that lets them communicate with one another. 

I wonder how they do that or if in this time they have already established international organizations. 

"What's keeping you so absent minded" a cold voice resounded in the kitchen. Even the staff turned stiff. 

I only felt the pain when someone flicked my forehead. 

I punched the person, or so I tried but he caught my fist. I locked my eyes on the target. 

"What are you doing here?"

"You took so long and left me in your room. I was bored, and someone tried to forcibly try their luck on climbing your bed. Has no one ever taught your maidservants never to enter your room without your permission?"

My eyes stared wide open. 

"Where is the person?"

"Dead"

"Dead?"

He nodded 

"This prince is very annoyed with her interruption. I need my beauty rest, so don't expect me to be lenient. I don't need to pardon anyone. Remember, if I can exterminate this kingdom, I can also kill as freely as I want"

Hi voice changed from monotonous to annoyed then it ended being extremely cold. I felt everyone in the kitchen shivered. My hair stands on its end. 

Then he cupped my chin. 

"You're lost" then he flicked my forehead again

She was a legendary figure, a genius neurosurgeon, a renowned lawyer and one of pillars of wildlife conservation. Her brainpower was too horrifying that the government saw her as an imposing threat to their jurisdiction. One day Feng Jiang Lei was sent to work for diplomatic relations with the terrorists and deal with the aftermath of risking her life to fulfill her duty. It could have been successful, but she was assassinated and died by the hands of her childhood best friend. Remembering that no matter how important a person is to you, there will come a time that love will abandon and betray you.

He was the son of an affluent technological expert, a professor from Harvard University and the heir to AdTech-Space Developers Corporation. Professor Qin Xue Rong spearheaded the expedition to Jupiter and ventured the lands of the unknown yet one night the great red spot appeared without warnings, thus putting everyone at risk. He could have saved his life, but he sacrificed his own to save his people and send them back to earthly safely. He was then sucked by the storm, bringing with him was a 17-Petaflop Titan Supercomputer and Valkyria the most advanced space humanoid robot.

But the gods seemed to have different plans. Two lost souls with untimely death were fated to meet in the era of the past and change the mistakes of the history. One became the wicked and outrageous miss who was banished to the mountains as the star of destruction. While the other was the fool who was stripped from his noble title and left to rot in the forest. Despised and plotted against, will they survive the test of time?

"What are you inventing hubby?" she asked

"A cultivation booster for my wifey!" he answered

"Will we get richer?" she asked again

"Indeed the richest!" he answered and kissed her forehead gently.

"What are you doing to my sister, bastard!?" 

Both me and Rebecca look back with a jerk in response to the voice from behind.   

Standing at the doorway is a girl with a dangerous-looking kitchen knife in her hands.   

I look at her from top to bottom. Her hairs are long and blond like Rebecca but are tied up in twin tails. Her skin is fair and smooth. Her light green colored eyes are big and beautiful.  

Even her figure looks amazing above her simple blue knee-length skirt with moderate but shapely tits, slender waist, meaty ass, and plump thighs.   

And most importantly… I know this girl very well.   

"Aria!" I exclaim loudly in shock.   

"Jacob!?"   

Aria also notices me and the kitchen knife from her hands and her jaw, both drops at the same time.   

We both keep staring at each other like this for a few seconds as if we are frozen in place before Rebecca breaks the silence…  

"Y-You both know each other?" she asks, her voice still a bit shaky.  

Yes, I know Aria very well. In fact, she is one of my freaking classmates in school. And excluding Leo and Ryan, she is probably the person I have spoken to, the most in school.   

But well, unlike Leo and Ryan, Aria is not my friend… not even close.  

And the reason for that is; apart from being one of the most beautiful girls in school (not the reason), Aria is also the class monitor.   

Thus, being the one who stops every "rulebreakers" or "wrongdoers" of the class.   

And guess whom she catches the most in the class?   

Yeah, me.   

I am like the main target of her. Any time I bring a porn magazine or adult games in school to share with Ryan and Leo or to enjoy myself, she confiscates them instantly. Like, the moment I enter the class. It's as if she knows beforehand that I am going to bring them.   

And the worst part is, she only catches Leo and Ryan when they are about to lend me books from their own "private" collection.  

Like, seriously, what the fuck?  

Because of her, my eyes have been deprived of feasting on so many beautiful naked babes that it's just heartbreaking.   

And this is the reason, I hate Aria Woods and consider her one of my biggest enemies.   

Wait…   

Aria…Woods.  

Shit!!!  

This was in my mind somewhere but I thought it is just a coincidence or something that Rebecca's and Aria's surnames match.   

But no! They are freaking sisters!   

"You… You broke into my house?" Aria asks in a disbelieving tone.   

"I-I did not…"   

Fuck! I broke into the house.   

"And I cannot believe this. You were trying to **** my sister…" She says, anger again starting to appear on her face.   

"I am not!"  

"He is not!"  

Me and Rebecca speak at the same time.   

"What!?" Aria says looking genuinely confused all of a sudden.   

I can tell she didn't expect Rebecca to defend me.   

"B-But he is on top of you!" She exclaims loudly.   

"O-Oh, Jacob just fell on me…" Rebecca says with a nervous smile while lightly pushing me away.   

I quickly stand up and move away from Rebecca.   

"I-I am sorry. I tripped," I say while making my best apologetic face to Rebecca.   

"O-Oh, it's fine…" she tells me.   

We both smile at each other.  

"What the heck is happening here!?" Aria says loudly, looking bewildered.  

She bends down and picks up the kitchen knife before moving closer to the bed a little and speaking again.  

"Your eyes are clearly red from crying, sister! I even heard your yells and shouts! Why are you trying to defend him!? Is he blackmailing you?" she asks while pointing the knife at me.   

"N-No, he is not! And I am not defending him… It's just that I was… It's just that—"  

"Rebecca was tutoring me!" I say, suddenly getting an idea.   

""What!?""   

Rebecca and Aria both look at me in surprise.   

"I-I mean, yeah. I was tutoring Jacob. I-I was yelling at him because…err… he was doing badly. Yes! A-And my eyes are red because… err… something got into them earlier," Rebecca says.   

Nice cover, Rebecca.   

"Tutoring him? TUTORING him!? I agree that Jacob's grades are really extremely bad but why is my sister tutoring him!? And where the hell did you both even meet for this tutoring to start!?" she asks.   

"W-Well, that is…"  

Rebecca doesn't seem to get any ideas. I need to think of something myself…   

"W-Well, we met at the… library! Yeah, two days ago in the library. And there, Rebecca solved some of my doubts. I-I liked the way she explained things to me so much that I asked if she could tutor me regularly and she said yes," I answer.   

I hope she believes this…   

But Aria is not looking at me anymore.   

"You were at the library!? Really!? But you never go to public places like that!" she says, her eyes filled with doubt and surprise.   

What? Rebecca doesn't go to public places? Why?  

"I-I was just passing by, so I decided to take a look in… after such a long time," Rebecca answers, rather uncomfortably.   

Aria still looks really doubtful but for some reason, she does not ask Rebecca why she decided to "take a look in".  

"… okay, that's fine. But when did he come inside the house!? I didn't hear any sound of doorbell! And wait for a second, where the hell are your books? You were studying, right!?" she asks.   

This time, I am lost for words but fortunately, Rebecca takes over.   

"I-I was in the garden when he came so, I took him inside. And I was teaching Jacob with your books so he didn't bring any…" Rebecca says while pointing at a small study table placed at the corner of the room, on top of which there are some of the course books lying.   

Wait, those books must be Aria's, then why are they in Rebecca's room?   

"Sister, Jacob is just—"  

Suddenly, Aria stops speaking and eyes open wide in shock. She looks at me with a jerk and stares as if seeing something alien or something.   

"H-How… are you doing this?" she asks me in a scared sort of way.   

What? What am I doing?   

"What do you mean by that? I am doing not doing anything…" I say.   

"H-How are you standing here?" she asks. Her voice is starting to shake now.   

Is she an idiot? I am standing because of my legs…   

I look at Rebecca, expecting to see her sighing because of her sister's question but to my surprise, she is also looking at me as if expecting an answer.   

"I don't get what you are asking…" I say in confusion.   

"Wait, don't tell you don't know…" Aria asks, looking even more surprise.   

This is just getting ridiculous.   

"Don't know about what!?" I ask, bit frustrated now.   

"Aria, he doesn't know…"   

Rebecca suddenly says before Aria can open her mouth again.   

"But sister, then how is he—"  

"Jacob…"  

Rebecca cuts in between Aria and addresses me with a serious look.   

"I need to tell you something… about my system."

The excitement was running wild among everyone as it was The System Ceremony, where each individual is infused with their systems. Jacob, an ordinary guy was no different. To his joy, he got the system where points are gained by doing perverted tasks and indulging in sexual activities: The Sex Beast System. Well, that joy lasted for mere seconds before he noticed the other specifications of this system... which made him almost faint with shock.

What Jacob thought to be a broken system at first, tuned out be something entirely different from even his wildest imagination possible... and completely changed his entire life.
