I will be inserting my own content as I believe there is so much that JK Rowling could have expanded on. Re-reading the books as an adult has given me a differrent perspective than when I first read the books.

October 9th 2016

The Javitz Center is bursting with energy. The line in the morning went up and down 34th street. It's the last day of this year's New York Comic Con. People dressed as their favorite characters from every conceivable fandom parade around to get comic books signed, pictures taken, attend artist/writer's panels, compare costumes, purchase merchandise and collectibles, as well as hang out and connect with fellow fans of the same work. It's a magical time.

However, this NYCC is a bit different than usual. People dressed as Spider-Man, Thor, Black Widow, and many other beloved Marvel characters can be seen with mixed emotions on their faces, excited, yet also despondent. Looking at them you'd think that someone just told them that their favorite grandmother was about to die but was also leaving them with her entire fortune after she passed away. If asked about it, many would agree with that sentiment, especially those who live in this city that never sleeps.

The reason for this occurred two days ago. It was announced online that this would be a beloved icon's last convention in his birth city of New York. The man who has given all Marvel fans so much of his time and energy, as well as being a co-creator of so many of the more well known characters in the Marvel Universe.  Stan Lee is having his last panel at this location today, this afternoon, in-fact. Right now though, the man every comic book fan adores can be seen chatting and signing autographs from behind a white plastic table with the upcoming Marvel Studios movie poster "Spider-Man: Homecoming" blown up behind him.

One New Yorker can be seen in line to get the man's signature, shuffling in place nervously but gingerly holding a limited edition copy of Fantastic Four #72. His deep green eyes looking over the others ahead of him in order to see how long it'll be until it's his turn. A cough from behind startles him. He turns around to see who wants his attention.

"Hey tall guy, what's got you so impatient? Not like you can make this line move any faster."

Embarrassed, the man scratches the back of his dark brown head of hair as he looks down to acknowledge the older gentleman. He must be around five ten? Five nine? Maybe 70 or 80 years old. And dressed as Thanos, The Mad Titan, of all people, complete with a replica of the infinity gauntlet and purple makeup. It's kind of a odd choice of character for an elderly person to dress as. While keeping up with the rest of the line, the brown haired man responds.

"S-sorry, it's just, I've always wanted to meet him again since the first NYCC I went to and I don't want to miss him. I mean, it's his last one, y'know?"

'Thanos' shows a knowing smile.

"I get it, believe me, but doin' what your doin' ain't gonna help at all. By the way, been meanin' to ask you... who are you cosplaying as?" 'Thanos' asks, gesturing to the man's attire. "You can't be dressed as Peter Parker, you're a bit too bulky for it... Clark Kent? That'd fit, but you don't have the glasses on..."

"Huh?" The man looks down at his plaid button down shirt, white undershirt, and jeans. "Oh! No, sorry, I actually couldn't really afford to make a costume this year. So, I'm just me, unfortunately."

"Ah," 'Thanos' nods. "No worries young man, we've all been there. By the way, name's Jack. And you are?" Jack extends his non-gloved hand out for a handshake.

Taking Jack's hand with the one not holding his most prized comic, the man replies, "Jonathan Stevens, call me Jon, nice to meet you. Nice Thanos costume, by the way."

Jack grins, "Thanks, made it myself. Took a while to get it right, though people keep telling me I'm too old for this stuff. If I had a build like you and maybe twenty or so years younger I'd probably be able to pull it off better."

Now it was Jon's turn to smile, "Nonsense, just say you're a Thanos where Dr. Strange used the Time Stone to accelerate your age and you're good to go!" 

Jack showed a bemused expression and chuckled as the both of them kept walking forward in line. "Yea, that'd work, if I didn't have the Time Stone already in the Infinity Gauntlet that is."

"Ah, I guess you're right. Then how about a Thanos that's an extra few thousand years old?" 

"Again, Infinity Gauntlet. With the stones, Thanos wouldn't need to age like he normally would. Plus, his race's longevity doesn't work like most others, he'd look the same clear up until the day he died."

"Hmm, then say you're a Watcher who is a fan of the Titan?"

"Nope, if there were a Watcher that was a fan of Thanos he'd have his title revoked. Though they're supposed to be neutral, they favor good over evil. The only outlier in the Watchers is that simpleton that watches Deadpool exclusively. And the other Watchers barely tolerate him because Wade Wilson is usually doing good." 

Jon and Jack both continue chatting about comics, how to resolve Jack's cosplay identity, and their favorite characters for a while. All of a sudden a trio of cosplayers dressed as Wonder Woman, Captain Marvel, and Power Girl walk by, distracting Jon for a few seconds while Jack gives the young man a smirk. Though, after a bit it becomes more annoying than funny. So Jack snaps him back to reality.

"Hey now, they're beautiful alright, but there's no need to stare that much. What would your girlfriend think?"

Startled, Jon hastily waves his hand in front of his face. "Eh!? No, no no. I d-don't have a girlfriend. At least, not anymore."

Jack's eyes widen slightly in surprise . "Really? Big guy like you doesn't have a girlfriend? Well, I'm sorry to hear that, what happened?"

"Ah, w-well... after I got out after my last tour I found out she left me, so I moved back home to Queens for a while." Jon shows a self deprecating smile. "She said she couldn't stand me being away all the time and that I wasn't able to give her what she needs. She's married now with a kid on the way..."

"Ah jeez, I'm sorry, shouldn't have brought it up. Wait a minute. Got out? Last tour? You a vet?"

"Hmm, I wouldn't really classify myself as a veteran. It's not like I was in the full 20. But I did a few tours with Kilo Company, 3rd Battalion in Afghanistan. Some of my friends that served with me would say that anyone who deployed and saw the desert is a vet, but personally, I think the guys who stayed in and continued their service after being in that hell are the real veterans. But anyway, after that, well, like I said I got out and came back home."

"So, what're you doing now?"

"Not a whole lot. Living by myself and going to school again to get a degree, G.I. Bill won't use itself, you know? But mostly I'm just reading comics and watching tv and movies."

"Hey, no shame in that. And thank you for your service."

Smiling, Jon appreciated the elderly gentleman's sentiments. Prior Service men and women may not get treated as badly as they used to after Vietnam, but in a city like New York it's a bit rarer to find someone who is grateful for the sacrifices that people like Jon have made in service to the country. So, Jack saying that meant a lot. 

The odd duo made small talk for a while. Soon it was almost time for Jon's turn in line. However, before he could go up to his idol he got stopped by Jack.

"Wait a bit, been meaning to ask you. What's so important about that Fantastic Four comic you have? You seem to treasure it. But from what we've been talking about it doesn't seem like you particularly care for the FF all that much." Jack asks, looking at the comic held carefully in Jon's hand. 

"Oh, this?" Jon brings the 72nd issue up. "Yea, I don't care much about the FF. Susan Storm, Ben Grimm, and Johnny Storm are one thing, but Reed Richards... I don't like much, and those movies are cringe worthy. This issue is special though."

"Oh?" Jack quirks up an eyebrow. "And why's that?"

Jon gets an excited look on his face. "Because, this is one of the few times we meet the One-Above-All. As the Creator you don't hear about him much and the focus is more on Earth and it's protectors. I figured there must be more to him, so I wanted to ask Mr. Lee about him while also asking him to sign the page where the FF meets him. I know this incarnation of the character is more an homage to Jack Kirby, but it still seems appropriate, you know?" 

Jack frowns a bit. "What more to the character do you need? He's omniscient, omnipresent, and omnipotent. Kind of hard to really put a finger on that sort of being don't you think? Even worse to try and have a story surrounding him, or her."

"Well, uh, it's just there isn't a character in the Marvel Universe that doesn't have a story and I wish I could experience his. Heck, a being like that inside the Marvel Universe? I wish I could BE the One-Above-All." Jon looks back at the line, "Ah, sorry, Jack, I need to go, it's my turn!"

As Jon scampers off giddily, Jack laughs at his young friend's antics. "Indeed, it just might be." 

At this his eyes seem to glow for a split second before being replaced by his normal look. After a few minutes, he walks toward Jon, who's standing in front of Jack's best friend and colleague. 

Jack places his gloved hand on Jon's shoulder as he gets his comic back from Stan, and before he can ask his question says, "Stan, this one."

Jon looks at his new costumed friend curiously. 'Does Jack know Mr. Lee?'

Stan Lee looks up surprised. He takes his trademark aviator sunglasses off and points them at Jon. "You sure Jack?" Jack nods. Stan shrugs, "Alright, but you have to explain it to him." Stan Lee takes out a pencil from his pocket, a worn out, dirty, chewed up pencil. He then reaches under the table and brings up a blank sheet of paper. As he places it on the table, the whole convention center seems to quiet as if someone is turning the volume dial down on a stereo. Once the paper hits the table, it's eerily silent. Jon starts to panic a bit. 'Just what is going on!?' The only thing Jon can hear is his, Jack's, and Mr. Lee's breathing. As the elderly celebrity drops his old pencil down onto the page, a word escapes his lips. 

"Excelsior"

Jon's consciousness fades to black as his body turns into motes of light until it disappears entirely.

"Thanks Stan, as always." Jack Kirby says as he walks away and fades into nothingness.

"See you in a few years, Jack." Says Stan, and life returns to the convention hall.

Discontinued. 

Sorry, I know I’m a hypocrite. Honestly, I don’t think I can write a character who’s OP. I’m not done writing, and it has been a valuable learning experience, which is what the fic was for in the first place. I’m sorry for the people who enjoyed it. I may come back to it in the future but I’ll have to see. 

Currently I’m writing short stories on my PC with different character ideas, trying to find a character that’s fun to write, able to grow, and still grabs interest. 

The problem with this MC is that as soon as he realizes that his powers are based purely on his own will and imagination, there’s no more challenge, no real growth. Or at least, I’m not good enough of a writer to keep it interesting after that happens. 

I think my next work will be on Archiveofourown, probably under a different handle.

Once again, thank you for your interest and for enjoying it while it lasted. I’m surprised it got within the top 50 fics on this thing at one point. 

You know what’s not fair? I was in such a slump for so long with this. Yet, I start getting ideas again as I’m writing to tell you that it’s definitely over. I’m making notes of my ideas, but I’m going to have to shelve it anyway for now. I’m just not good enough for this kind of story at the moment.

"Do you have plans for tomorrow?" Jack asked. 
He and Alex were in their bed ready to sleep when the husband suddenly looked thoughtful. Alex thought he was just thinking about his earlier phone call so she didn't mind him, but it seemed that there was something else.
"I will go to the hospital to visit Chunnie," she answered. 
"Park Yoochun finally collapsed?" Jack asked and Alex raised her brow. 
"Finally?" she prompted.
The fact that the current CEO of RIO was sick was not known to the public. Yoochun collapsed yesterday after suffering from gas pains for months since Alexandra's mother's death. When the secretary found him sprawled on the floor, he was still able to be coherent enough to order her to keep things low key. Instead of calling an ambulance, Yoochun manned it up and with the help of his trusted assistants, managed to sneak out of the company to the parking lot where the secretary placed him in his car and drove him to the hospital for emergency surgery. 
As it turned out Yoochun had an ulcer. 
"The last time we met was before I flew to the US. It might not be very obvious to others, but to me, he looked totally sick."
Oh?
Alex remembered that Yoochun attended a business conference before she went to Las Vegas. Jack must be talking about that time. However, based on what Yoochun told her, the two men only met briefly and it was only a short greeting. Also, the conference was held at an auditorium. Alex didn't believe it was bright enough for people to see each other's coloration easily. Aside from that, outside, Yoochun made sure to act like nothing was wrong. So, how did her husband notice it?    
"That's it?" she prompted, not convinced that his answer was everything. 
She was right. 
After a bit of deliberation, Jack sighed and gathered her in his arms and drew her closer to him. Alex lay on his chest with her face tilted upwards so she could see his face. Looking at him this up close, she also wanted to sigh. As a model, she'd been around many gorgeous men and women. Even if Jack's face was not the most handsome one she'd seen, she felt that he was the most attractive. 
There was something about his features that exudes total manliness and strong character that she found very fascinating. She'd never seen suck power in anyone else before. But then again, not everyone she met was the most powerful man in the city which was her husband was. 
Henry Jacques Cole. Even at a very young age, the man was already a legend in the business industry. Even if she'd never seen his face since she had been too busy with her own work and too stubborn to see their company rival, she had clearly heard his name. It's why she was totally shocked that she had totally forgotten who he was when she first heard him introduce himself. 
"So?" she prompted again as she flicked his nipple with her fingers. 
Jack smiled and captured her hand with his before he answered. 
"I have eyes and ears everywhere," he plainly said which made Alex snort. 
"Are you spying on me Mr. Cole?" she challenged. 
Well, she already half-expected this answer. Just as she said, he was the most powerful man in the city if not the country. JC Corporation was such a huge empire that in reality, RIO's rival was only a part of its industry and not the entire business itself like RIO. Depressing as it might sound, RIO was not really a rival in every sense of the word. Her company's just an insignificant competitor that Jack didn't have to bother with it personally. 
"Not entirely," he admitted. 
"Which means…?"
Jack shifted on the bed so he could elevate his head and look down on her upturned face. 
"Which means that I only checked on things surrounding you to protect you and not because of anything else," he retorted seriously. "Alexandra Lee Cole, I will not let you be harmed in any way now that you're married to me."
Alex blinked several times. She was really surprised by this answer. 
"Why do you look so shocked? It's only normal that I take care of you, right?" Jack asked as he frowned at her, then his brows rose as another idea hit him. "Don't tell me… Did you think I'm spying on you to know more about RIO?"
"Of course, not." Alex was not that delusional. "Why would the great Henry Jacques Cole even bother checking out RIO? You're not even the one handling the department that's dealing with us."
Jack smiled and flicked her nose. 
"You're wrong. Small or not, a rival is a rival and it pays to know about all of them," Jack told her matter-of-factly. "Even if I'm not the one handling those businesses, they still report to me and I know everything that's happening. It's what being the boss is."
Alex looked depressed then. "I suck at being the boss then."
Jack sighed. "It can't be helped. Ara Lee was larger than life. She's a very strong woman who did everything to shield her only child from the ugliness of the business world. She must have not been thinking to leave you so early and so suddenly."
Alex's eyes grew dim at the mention of her mother. Even if months had already passed, her mother's sudden death due to a car accident still hadn't sunk fully within her. It was as if a part of her was still waiting for her mother to breeze in the door with her high heels in her hands complaining about her legs and idiot executives. 
"Yeah… she must have been planning to live more decades so I could do what I want. It's why she trained Yoochun and just let me do my own thing."
But Ara Lee was gone and RIO was in trouble. One of the reasons why Alex wanted to get married ASAP was so she could find someone to aid Yoochun. Yoochun was not a blood relative and was facing a huge dissatisfaction and rejection among the directors. If it weren't for Ara's miraculous last will and testament handing things to him before her untimely death, Alex would be alone to handle the company filled with crocodiles. 
Sensing her gloominess, Jack squeezed her arm. 
"Darling, when I said I will protect you and make your life comfortable, I mean it."
"I know," she answered softly with a smile. 
"I will protect you, even if sometimes I have to meddle a lot in your life and do something extreme," he suddenly added, making Alex look at him with a puzzled expression. 
"What do you mean? Do you know something I don't?" she asked and Jack squeezed her again. 
"Not yet. But I will soon," he told her, and Alex's heart felt cold as she realized what he might be implying. 
"It's about my mother, right?" she asked something that she had been feeling for a long time but didn't dare voice out. "She didn't really die in an accident."
Jack nodded. "Yes. If my hunch is correct, she was killed."

The reluctant groom... 

Jacques Henry Cole or Jack was turning thirty soon and he needed to get married in order to inherit the family business according to his father’s last will and testament. Everything’s been prepared for his wedding, but there’s one big problem: There’s no bride – not that he bothered finding one. 

The impulsive bride… 

To stop her father from retiring from the job he loved to take care of her, heiress Alexandra Lee or Alex suddenly declared she was getting married and that her husband would take care of the business. She did find someone suitable to marry, but there’s one big problem: She caught the groom cheating the night before the wedding! 

The clock’s ticking and they needed to get married! 

“When life gives you lemons what do you do? Have it with tequila of course! Drink it straight up just as long as you're sure where you'll end up... For troubled heirs Jacques Henry Cole, and Alexandra Lee, it's in the same place: TOGETHER" 

=============
THIS COULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED! HOW? WHEN? WHY?

"We're m-married?" Alex almost choked on her words.

Her blue eyes popped out of their sockets as she stared at the incriminating piece of paper wherein it's stated that she and Jacques were now lawfully wedded.

"B-but h-how did this happen? I c-can't remember anything!"

Panicking, she stood up, her eyes transferred to Jacques in alarm, but the latter waved her back onto her seat which she followed without protesting since her legs wobbled.

"Why are you so spooked? We decided to get married anyway so it doesn't matter that it's already done with, right?" he reminded her reasonably.

"R-right," Alex agreed absentmindedly before she stood up again, perplexed. "I mean no! What kind of people get married and forget the ceremony?" she blurted which earned her a thoughtful look from the equally forgetful groom.

"Ehrm…drunkards like us?" Jacques offered and Alex rolled her eyes in frustration as she collapsed and leaned back on her seat, her hand zeroing on her temple which began to throb.

Right! Who else could pull this stunt other than a stinking drunk couple like them?

However, contrary to Lily's prediction, Qin Mo mentioned nothing about Zhuo Jingren nor his possible involvement to Qin Liwei's accident in the next few days. Instead, he never interacted with any media personnel and avoided having any interview. Of course, people from the media respected this matter and eventually stopped talking about Qin Liwei's accident.
This was an unexpected response and Lily could only shake her head in the end. Maybe Qin Mo learned something because of what happened to Zhang Yifei and the Qin Family in Shanghai. Or maybe a smart backer finally gave him some advice about their stupid way of thinking. Either way, Lily does not want to focus on them alone.
After all, she's got a business to run and a grand wedding to plan.
Because of this, Lily took a step back and watch in the sidelines. She decided to not do a thing and asked her people to observe everyone in the Qin Family. She knew that someone was backing Qin Liwei and she wanted to see what brilliant thing would that backer come up soon.
Lily and Zhuo Jingren continued their busy schedules as they focused on their business and preparing for their upcoming wedding.
Zhuo Jingren wanted to give Lily a grand wedding. And he wanted to announce this in the world. This made both of their schedule even more hectic than that of the usual one. Still, the couple would try to find time to spend with each other.
"A wedding?" Isaac Lee scrunched his brows as he listened to the explanation of his man. "And they will do it… January? Do you think she is pregnant?"
"We have not confirmed this. But… a few weekends ago, they went to see an obstetrician in Japan. We have confirmed anything yet. But… there is a big possibility that she is indeed pregnant."
The old man turned silent while stroking his chin. He fell into a deep contemplation. "Was this the same time that Adrian went to Japan and offended Zhuo Jingren?"
"Yes Chairman."
"Hmmm… the arrogance of that child is the reason why I didn't make him the heir of my empire." Isaac thought out loud. "What about the people who were trying to dig up some information about Zhuo Jingren? Did you found out who wanted to know about his past?"
"Well… it seems that the Zhou Family in China has enemies capable of hiding their tracks and… they have already spotted Zhuo Jingren." The man answered. "Chairman… may I voice out my opinion about this matter?"
"Yes. Please do… Allen we are family after all."
"Chairman… I think it's high time that you introduce yourself to  Mr. Zhuo Jingren. I don't think he would still refuse a meeting from the Chairman of the Lee Group. Mr. Jingren is a very smart man. There should be a reason why he refused a partnership with us. Both he and his wife made it clear that they do not want to associate themselves with us. I think that Mr. Zhuo Jingren already knows about us and his mother."
"There is even a possibility that he already knew about him coming from the Zhou Family in mainland China. That should be the reason why he refused any pictures and interviews from the media. He does not want to attract anyone's attention, especially the Zhous and their enemies." The man named Allen added.
"Hmmm… you actually have a point. Having Thomas contact both Zhuo Jingren and Lily Zhuo is futile. Maybe it is indeed time for me to introduce myself to my grandson and protect him this time." Isaac Lee nodded, an earnest expression flashed in his face but it quickly disappeared as he furrowed his brows again.
"You mentioned that the Zhous in China have enemies?"
"Yes, Chairman…. All these years, they have offended many people in their industry. I could not find out the identity of the people who tried to dig something about Mr. Zhuo Jingren's past. I am not even sure if it was someone from the Zhou Family. All I know is that… they wanted to know more about him."
"I see." The old man nodded, his gaze pensive before he looked at the smiling photo of the woman in his hands. He made a mistake in the past and he would make sure not to do it again with his grandson. "Alright… check out if we could arrange a meeting with Zhuo Jingren. Try if you can find his locations in the next few weeks. I would prefer a 'coincidental meeting'. "
….
In one of the restaurants in Northern Heights, Hong Kong
"This place is perfect for real estate investments." Jack smiled at Lily. His gaze eyes were at the beautiful garden that was one of the main attractions of this restaurant. "Aren't you going to order something for lunch?"
"I have a flight to mainland China in five hours. I don't really have the time to talk about real estate over lunch." Lily went straight to the point. This was the day that she was scheduled to fly to Beijing for the bidding that she will attend with Mr. Han tomorrow. "How was George?"
Just a few hours ago, Jack called Lily and asked for a meeting. He said he had something very important to inform Lily. Initially, Lily refused to see him as she does not have the time to do so. But when the latter, told her that it has something to do with George situation, Lily immediately changed her mind.
"Not in the mood, eh?" Jack said, the same smile plastered on his face before he slowly turned serious. "Well then… I guess there is no reason for me to delay telling you this information as well."
"Someone attacked George one week ago." Jack said. "And everyone was suspecting your brother."
Lily lifted an eyebrow at Jack, "Really? Is George alright? Did he sustain some fatal injuries?"
"He is fine… but still unconscious. The culprit hit his head. We are not sure when he will wake up." Jack said his gaze darkening. "I have decided to closely monitor your brother for now. However… once I get a proof that he was the one responsible then… you should already know what will happen to him, right?"
Lily crossed her arms across her chest. Her face devoid of any expression. Qin Yuanfeng … a man with a peculiar and complicated personality that was caused by his upbringing. He might be many things by Lily was sure that being this stupid is not one of those.


COMPLETE!
WARNING: FL is scheming and evil.

Like almost every dramatic romance novel, Lily Qin’s story began with an evil stepmother, a scheming stepsister, and a dumb ex-fiance. At twenty, she fell prey to their grand scheme and became the laughingstock of the country. In despair, she left.


Seven years later, Lily Qin rose from the ashes.


She was labeled as an empress, an iron lady, a genius, and a prodigy. She was Miss Tycoon.


Now, at twenty-seven, Lily Qin was an established businesswoman who was single-handedly controlling her multinational company abroad. She was beautiful, smart, and successful. Women envied her while men couldn’t help but worship her ethereal beauty.


With her devastating past, everyone had assumed that Lily would exact revenge on the people who had wronged her. Who would have guessed that behind that beaming smile of hers was a numb heart that aimed only to make more profit?

"You got it wrong." Lily elegantly propped her chin on the back of her hand. "I am seeing you today because we have something in common. We're both villains in somebody else's eyes. And I think it's time for us villains to get our own happy ending. Don't you think so?"


---


Zhuo Jingren’s love for Lily Qin was something that only he knew. Ever since they were children, he had his eyes on her. Yet, every time he had tried to confess, he would end up fainting from nervousness.


So when Lily Qin promised to marry him if he became richer than her, Zhou Jingren did not hesitate to leave the orphanage and work his way up just to become her man.


Who would have thought that years later, when he was successful and feared by many, he would come back to an engaged Lily Qin?


Then she mistook him for an escort after eating his tofu? Preposterous!


The worst thing was, she seemed to have forgotten everything about him. Hadn’t she promised to marry him the moment he became more prominent than her family? Now, after taking advantage of him, she dared to run away?

This woman was a liar!

He gritted his teeth as he watched her approach him. He was about to say something mean when she suddenly spoke. “Are you my new bodyguard?” She did not even wait for him to answer before tossing her car keys at him. “Drive. Let’s go wreak some havoc.”


Thus, the mafia’s big boss became Lily Qin’s bodyguard.


---


"So? What do you want as a compensation?" Zhuo Jingren asked her once again before laying down next to her. His elbow was resting on the ground and his palm was supporting his head as he looked at her intently. 

The first thing that Lily noticed about Zhuo Jingren when he laid next to her was his exposed tanned chest. This made him look more casual… and hot. She didn't even realize she was staring at the latter.

"Why are you staring at me like that?" He smirked at her. "Do you want me to compensate you with my body?"

Lily immediately rolled her eyes at the latter. "Who wants your body? Hmp! I want money!"

"Your mind is always thinking of money but your body actually betrays you. Am I right to say that I have a shameless wife?"

"Hah! I am a strong and independent woman of the 21st century. I know what I want. But if you insist on giving your body, I will take it too!" Lily shamelessly said, taking off her stilettos. However, just when Lily was about to lie down beside Zhuo Jingren, he suddenly pulled her on top of him. With her body on top of his, their faces were really close and they could even feel each other's breath. 

"What a shameless woman," he noted, the smile on his face only deepened.

"…Hahaha!!"
Jack, the hotel owner, laughed. He looked at Lee Sungmin's face, then at the things he brought, and laughed again.
"You really got all this by yourself?"

Teeth of goblins, 5 bottles of blood, poison, and others. The blow dart, poison needles, and bottles were his to keep. He thought that he may need it in the future.
Jack looked down at Sungmin and was lost in thought.
Goblins weren't that hard of a monster to kill. It was annoying that they moved in packs, but goblins weren't that bad when they were up against an experienced traveller. Going into the center of their territory may prove to be dangerous, but getting a few around the borders was easy.
However, it was a 14 year old who accomplished this. His surprise increased when he realized that the 14 year old was a No Class with no skills.
Jack ran a hotel, so he met a lot of otherworlders who arrived at Genavis. The people with martial arts or magic adapted easily.

However, a No Class was different. They had no skills to ensure their survival, nor did they have any experience with fighting against monsters. Most of the time, at least one month was needed for a No Class to adapt to life in Genavis and understand the situation they were put in and the need to kill monsters to survive.
"…When did… did you come here?"
"Yesterday."
Lee Sungmin answered truthfully. Jack laughed again at that piece of information.
"You're fourteen?"
"Yes."
"You don't… have any skills?"
"…yes."
"HAHAHA!"
Jack laughed again. Jack was curious what he did before coming here, but he didn't ask. It was an unsaid law that people shouldn't ask about one's life in the previous world.
"I'll… pay you well. Haha, a strange child came rolling in. A No Class went and killed monsters in just a day…"
In all honesty, Jack didn't think Sungmin would return alive. There were only a few people who could understand their situation relatively easily and kill some monsters to survive.
Usually, they didn't come back. Even though they understood, fighting and winning against monsters was a hard thing to do.
However, this child came back.
"I'll reduce the cost by half."
Nothing is free. That was the law Jack abided.
"It's good to have a relationship with such a talented child. If you survive long enough…Haha! You could become a high-ranked figure in Genavis in the future. Yes. Don't forget about me then."
Jack laughed loudly and tapped Sungmin's arm. Sungmin laughed as well and went up to his room.
Lee Sungmin had many thoughts in his head as he went up the stairs.
You'll be a regular.

A child with talent.
The store owner and Jack said that. In his past life, Sungmin never heard of things like that being said to him or being held up in such high regard. It was especially apparent in this place.
Genavis made the otherworlders understand how cruel and unfair this world was. He understood  just by observing Jack and the store owner's attitude towards him.
Just having talent alone made it so much easier to get respect from others.
'Talent, something that I never had before.'
He sighed and entered his room. 13 years in Eria made it easy to understand his situation.
He never finished the cultivation methods that he studied for a decade and the other skills that he got. It would be easy to get back to that point in his previous life. Why that was possible is because that the skills that he achieved in his past life didn't have any 'enlightment.'
The second class martial arts grew just by experience. Chase Soul Spear Technique was basically only a model. There would be no complete understanding. It was the same for all his skills.
[One Thunder] only had the basics, and [Iron Skin] and the [Stone Body] used external power. It required some inner strength, but those didn't have enlightment either.
That was the difference between the first and the second class . The first class arts had enlightenment. If you were lucky, you could get the understanding and break the limit of the skills.
But not a second class skill. It was only a model and a figure, so there would be nothing to learn. The best it would be is to get close to the first class skills.
'I have no strength in my body right now. I don't have stamina or anything. If I get more stamina…the other skills except [Genuine Heavens] will grow fast. But it's still only a second level skill.'
That made Lee Sungmin very depressed. He needed the talent to overcome his limits.
But Lee Sungmin didn't have that talent. He didn't have the gift to turn nothing into something. So he had to rely on the arts with understanding.

But he had at least the Genuine Heavens. That was a first class art. If he studied enough…he might be able to succeed. The cultivation methods helps increase the limit of the inner strength. If he could learn the Genuine Heavens, it would be easier to learn more and use more of his inner strength.
Regardless, a cultivation method was still a cultivation method.
The limit was there.
'I have a chance. But… not yet. I need to get that Intelligence Potion.'
Sungmin breathed loudly as he took off his clothes. His body was slightly tired, but he dropped on the ground.
He was going to do pushups everyday.
*
He stayed at Jack's hotel, and went to the hunting grounds everyday. He used his skills as much as he could, bought from the store owner, Hans, and sold stuff to him as well.
He usually fought Goblins. He went and figured out where their boundaries were, and hunted those who roamed around.
He kept gathering blood and teeth. Since his room cost was halved, he had money left after selling the items. Lee Sungmin got the money from Jack.
"Do you have a interdimensional  pocket?"
About 2 weeks since he came here, he went to Hans and asked. Hans yawned and looked at Sungmin.
"I have it."
The interdimensional  pocket would be a necessity for traveller hunting. Having magic, that pocket could hold a lot of stuff even with a small volume.
"Well, all of them are used, and the magic isn't that good either. Let's see…"
Hands opened the bad right in front of him. Inside, there was darkness. That pocket was a interdimensional  pocket.
His hand went inside the bag, as he searched, Hans pulled out a small pocket.
"It's used. I found it in the woods. From a dead body. A large body size maybe? Are you gonna buy it?"
"How much?"
"60,000 Erie."
Hans laughed. These were pretty expensive. The weight wasn't felt t all, and since time didn't flow, food could be stored as well. For a traveller, that was a key item.
"That's expensive."
"You want to bargain? I'll cut it to 50,000."
Hans laughed loudly and said. But Lee Sungmin shook his head.
He only had about 10,000 Erie. Even with running around the forest, he was buying things and using the hotel, so money was hard to get.
"Next time, I really don't have any money."
"You don't seem like… you want to bargain. Why'd you ask?"
"To me, you're the best person who would sell me things for the cheapest price."
He needed a interdimensional  pocket. But not yet. So he wanted to see how much Hans would sell it for.
Hans had an expression that he got hit in the back of the head.
"…Hahaha! I've done this job for many years, but it's the first time i've gotten this much trust from someone. Ok, let's do this. I'll test you."
"…Yes?"
Lee Sungmin opened his eyes widely at the surprise words. Hans laughed and continued.
"If you kill 5 orcs and take their eyes, then I'll give you this interdimensional pocket."

At that, Lee Sungmin swallowed hard. It had been about 2 weeks since he first arrived, but he still hadn't tried hunting orcs.
Orcs were harder to fight. They were strong and powerful. They weren't as intelligent as goblins, but they had enough strength to overcome that intelligence.
"…When does that offer end?"
"Today."
Hans said with mischievous face.
"It's been two weeks or so right? You went to the hunting grounds immediately, and you survived. You have talent. Even though it was only rabbits and goblins…if you kill an orc, I'll believe that you have that talent.
It wasn't talent; it was experience. He thought that to himself, but he didn't show it.
"Yes. I'll accept it."
Lee Sungmin nodded.

C-class mercenary. Started as a No Class, possessing nothing. 13 years of survival in the depths of the ditches. I’ve managed to return to the beginning, but...

It had been a year since the Williams moved into their new home at Privet Drive. At first they had checked up on Harry in secrecy but soon Arthur had the idea to get a job at Grunnings and they had legitimate reason to visit once in a while. Meanwhile the William Household was filled with happiness and laughter, Jack was very happy with his parents, they were kind and loving people with great morals and they were awesome at Magic. Arthur was great at Charms and Transfiguration and he used them around the house to make life better. He used multiple charms including the  `Extension Charm' on the basement and made it bigger while also using Transfiguration on the walls and roof to make them stronger. He also made it into a Magical Plant Garden for Emily's Potion Research, she was a part of the Slughorn Club during her time at Hogwarts, a prizes student who had developed many Healing Potions that saved the lives of the Order of Phoenix on a number of occasions. 

Although the Basement wasn't used that much due to Emily still taking care of Jack but the couple were very surprised when their Son had started to crawl at around Three months of age but that was nothing compared to when he walked when he turned Half a year old. There was a party in house, Jack was happy to see his parents not wallowing in sadness at their friends' death. Jack had been secretly practising Magic during the year, at first he had felt nothing but one day he felt a warm current wash over him and felt it, the Magical Energy around him. As he was still a baby, Jack didn't want to rush anything and harm himself or his parents, so the most he did was learn to control the Magical Energy within him. It was hard but he was a baby with nothing much to do besides eating, playing and sleeping, so he spent his time controlling the energy within him, a side effect of this was that his hunger had grown and his sleep time had grown longer with it. His mind and body were tired from the work he did during the day and so he needed more energy and rest. Both Emily and Arthur were happy there baby was healthy and well rested, as well as that they could go back to their `Night Activities'.

Today was the day, Jack was turning One Year Old, his parents had planned a great party for him and it all went great. The Dursleys were invited due to politeness and to check up on Harry. Under the directions of Emily and Arthur, the couple had a much better attitude towards their nephew and didn't think of him as disease. Jack had planned to ask his parents to take Harry away from them but he saw that his parents had the much better idea to change them into better people. It wasn't easy, during the year, Emily had gone over to the Dursley's many times and spent time with Petunia showing and teaching her compassion and also showing love towards the three babies in front of her. Jack didn't know what Arthur did with Vernon but the old fatty wasn't a fatty anymore. Under the influence of his parents, the Dursley's had grown and Jack wanted to increase his parent's happiness even more. so after the party, he said his first words, ``Mama!'' making Emily so happy she literally pushed Arthur out of the way to come pick him up and hug him. Looking at the dejected face of his dad, Jack decided it was enough and reached out his arms and said, ``Dada!'' The silhouette of sadness that had enveloped his father left so soon, Jack though he was faking it but when the family of three hugged each other, all that was left in his mind was happiness. 

During the next year Jack showed his parents his excellent talents, he began to respond to their questions, first with gestures than with words. His parents were very surprised when they found their son looking at a book, in deep thought. ``Oh Look Arthur! Little Jack is trying to read a book!'' his father's reaction was a bit more extreme, he went on a photography spree, only stopping after his wife hit him in the head. Around the Fifth Month, Jack had started to read with the help of his parents (Not Really – Sorry Emily Arthur) and was capable of reading by himself in a month. His parents had gotten him both Muggle and Magic Children's books, Jack obviously enjoyed the Magic Books  while the Muggle Ones were hard to even pretend to be interested in. The Williams visits to their Wizard Friends were some of Jack's favourite memories of this year, looking at the House Cleaning itself, knives waving in the kitchen by themselves among other things. While he was doing all this, Jack hadn't stopped his Magical Energy Control Training. He was able to condense the Magical Energy into multiple shapes outside his body while he could also disperse it in a room like gas and use it as a Sensory Spell, he could even detect dust particles in the room when he dispersed his Magical Energy around the room. 

When Jack was about to turn Two, he started to plead his parents to let them teach him magic, it took a while but nothing could stand against the might of a cute baby making a puppy dog face. His parents relented and he was allowed to start reading books and watch them show off in their areas of expertise. Arthur was overjoyed every time he cast the simplest of spells and his son shouted out, ``Wow! Dad that was amazing!'' every time Arthur had to resist the urge to cast even stronger spells, in case he accidentally hurt his child. Emily wasn't any better in this regards, at first she had only shown Jack how to take care of Magical Plants and Beasts in the Basement Garden but soon under the praise of her child, she started to let him watch when she made the most basic of potions. Even that was only done under the condition that Jack would not call out to her and distract her. One time Arthur waltzed into the room and was about to distract Emily whilst she was in the middle of making a Potion, Jack had to intervene and used his magical energy to make a barrier around his mother. This small act almost drained him of his magical energy and he would have collapsed if it wasn't for his Soul being strengthened in the process of reincarnation. 

Arthur was lectured for an hour while Emily fed him some of her renowned Healing Potions. After Jack woke up from his deep sleep, both of his parents turned to him in excitement and bombarded him with praise, ``Jack! You are a genius!'' ``You casted magic at such a young age! I am so proud of you!'' around ten minutes later, the couple realized they had been shouting at their son and backed off, straightened their clothes and tried to make their way out of the room. ``Ahem!'' Jack's cough made them slowly turn around, he had planned to look shocked and a bit disappointed but their puppy dog face didn't allow him to, he just broke into a smile at the first sight and all of them started to laugh. During the year, Jack had consumed Knowledge about magic at a high rate. He had read books around the house and watched his parents perform magic around the house and for him specifically. Whenever he watched his parents do magic, he noticed one thing, and that was the wastage. Jack's attempts at controlling his Magical Energy had led him to expose every part of his body to Magical Energy, including his Eyes. Over the course of two years, his eyes developed the ability to see the flow of magical energy. He watched his parents and searched for ways to Ascend, Ascend to Godhood. After watching his parents for all this time, he knew he had to continue doing two things, Magical Energy Control Training and Gathering knowledge. 

But all that could wait for tomorrow because Today Jack had turned Three and Emily and Arthur were taking him to Diagon Alley, to celebrate and get him presents.

Jack Smith had lived his life to the fullest and was content with it. That was until he was given the choice to reincarnate into a world of his choice, a chance to become a God.

"Amy Wilson".
.
.
"Hufflepuff"

Amy was placed in Hufflepuff due to jack interference he asked Mr.hat to do so. he did that to keep her safe. and did not want her to involve herself with Ginny Weasley if she ended up in Gryffindor it will be dangerous for her now and the future if she involves herself.

Jack saw Amy sitting near the Hufflepuff table where all the first year sat she was happy, as was shown on her face. All of Hufflepuff knew about jack having a sister during his popularity last year with quidditch. so she was welcomed by the second year students especially Susan bones and Hannah abbot.

Jack did not see Harry and Ron in the great hall he just saw Hermoine who was actually worried about her friends as she was looking at the entrance to find them, they will probably come to Hogwarts via the magical car like in the books or movies.

later that night Jack met Mr.hat he asked him about Salazaar Slytherin the founder like the rumors were true about him falling out with the other founders and the true reason for the basilisk to be kept here.

"Slytherin was an orphan, who master had found him, his family was eradicated or killed from the witch trials so he had deep resentments towards the normal humans, not muggle-borns just the regular humans". Mr.hat said to jack

"But he was a child with talents, he was a parselmouth and in the future, he became a top healer using his parseltongue, he made many spells in parseltongue too".

"During the starting of Hogwarts, he did not oppose muggle-borns he just wanted them to leave the muggle world. or detach completely from them it means they (muggle-borns)can not interact with their own parents"

"This was not accepted by the rest of the founders, they said that they were not sinners to take a child from their parents, during that conversation Godric Gryffindor the hot-blooded he was said some things like he was an orphan he did know nothing how close a child and parents are,
 etc"

"This made Slytherin angry after that, he rarely met or interacted with the founders and disappeared after that"

"As to the basilisk, it was his familiar it was kept to save the school and students from dangers. He was a true founder".

After listening to that jack had respect towards Slytherin, even after what happened he left his familiar the basilisk to keep the school safe.

Then jack asked Mr.hat if he is okay with the basilisk being killed and asked him about the parseltongue healing spells.

"The basilisk suffered a lonely life till now and is being manipulated again so its best if it comes to rest now." "Regarding the books, you can check the chamber if you find any or they probably be in the Gringotts under Slytherin name or their family inheritance".

The days went the same until Halloween when the first attack commerced. jack saw how ginny opened the chambers and then he even discovered the basilisk movements in the pipes all was shown in the book.

before the attack jack placed many magical alarm spells or charm and soul magic charms too to let him know the movements of basilisk through his ring.

Most of the magic spells were destroyed but the soul spells were there. jack can only guess the power in basilisk eyes to obliterate those magic spells.

Jack thought that maybe the basilisk eyes will harm the soul if you were seen directly, and will be killed and petrified if seen its reflection he thought as he has a powerful soul he can see the basilisk eyes directly but it was only a theory.

The next day after the attack, the were many rumors and discussions going around the school related to the chamber of secrets. about Salazar Slytherin, the monster, etc.

The following week Quidditch practice had started, to find new blood for the team or tryouts for the second-year students. As the Quidditch matches were going to start all the house teams were practicing for the upcoming matches.

This year's tournament started with the match between Gryffindor and Slytherin. Malfoy from Slytherin was the seeker he sucked at being a seeker, maybe he can be a good chaser as for being a seeker he did not have those reflexes. like the snitch was near him, he did not spot it. Harry on the other hand easily spotted and caught and won the game and then was hit by the ball or Bludger which Dobby enchanted it.

The next match was between Hufflepuff and Slytherin. Obviously jack had won he had an advantage over spotting the snitch. By using the soul eyes of his often his normal eyesight had become sharp or improved so he was easily able to spot it.

Amy was happy for her brother she enjoyed the game and complimented him, she was doing great in Hufflepuff she made many friends.

During the night, Jack sensed the alarms which he had placed, the basilisk was going hunting jack sneaked from his rooms he wanted to see how the basilisk looked. he followed the location by referring to the book of movements.

The first impression of a basilisk from seeing from a corner, only from its back. it was huge had green scales jack activated his soul's eyes and saw that the beast was overloaded with magic especially its eyes, they were piercing even though he saw it from the back. he did not know what will happen if he saw it directly but he was not going to take the risk.

Jack saw the beast's action, the student was only petrified. he did not involved like saving the student. if he did, and he was not successful to chase it away and during that confrontation, someone saw it any accidentally become dead or next time there will be a dead body instead of petrified.

Jack knew that the sound of a Rooster will harm the basilisk it may even go on frenzy so he did not o anything. He will supervise its hunt, and see that there will be no deaths only petrified.

The next day all the students were shocked and scared after learning the situation in the school, many students formed groups from going from one place to another.

Christmas,

"So Aunt when are you going to teach me about Animagus," Jack asked aunt min, he has been asking her since this summer she said that she will but she keeps ignoring.

"Are you sure about it its a painful process and advanced magic it's difficult and there will be some danger mostly for Muggleborns".She replied to jack

"Aunt min please I want to do this, I believe I will succeed".Jack pleaded

Jack if wanted he can do it himself, but he read that there should be someone to supervise as the process is complicated and someone had to undo the process if anything went wrong. if not, he/she will be stuck into that form they turned.

"First I will give you some advance book you need to learn it thoroughly and , I will take the test on it if you qualify we can think about it".She said by looking at jack's pleading

"Ok" Jack nodded to that.

Jack knew what she was thinking, she was right as for a muggle-born to be an Animagus is a long shot even in the books Hermoine did not do this, as this is someone related to one's magic capacity as normal wizards children like Harry or Ron have more magic than Hermoine but to use it efficiently is another matter.

But she did not know about Jack his capacity or his potential.
.
.
(As to why jack did not interfere by taking the book directly from ginny as he wanted the plot to be the same till Dumbledore dies in part 6 of the book or the half-blood prince.

he will directly involve himself after Dumbledore dies, as if he act now there will be complication the major one will be related to dumbledore. and he might use him to manipulate or do some shady business and he may not die and create more future trouble.

he has many contracts or supporters be it may be in ministry the noble houses or the international statue of liberty. so if he somehow made them feel like jack went to the dark side or he will become second Voldemort or his identity found out there will be a danger to his family etc.

This was not just Jack thought he had a conversation related to these things with the hat he told jack about Dumbledore, he is intelligent Cunning deceive and do anything to reach his goals and Jack is Wary of him he is an old bastard but he is tuff bastard. his position is proof of that cheif warlock...etc

So till Dumbledore dies he will involve himself but in background or places outside his reach. like He may take up fight with Voldemort in the Cemetery. or he may help the order of phoenix members in the Department of ministry, like a shadow in illusion form Mr.dean.)

Author : Some chapters have been merged , They were too small.

John was talking with Mr and Mrs Lee when Rose approached them slowly. 

"Dad?"  She was so nervous because she doesn't know how her dad will react with her. 


Mr Bay became stiffen when he heard her voice. He was so familiar with that voice. How can he forget that voice? He turned towards her maintaining the cold expression. He didn't speak but just looked at her.



"Dad, how are you?" Rose asked him mustering up some courage.



Mr Bay hearing that question, he just glared at her and turned towards Mr and Mrs Lee again.


Seeing the awkward silence, Mrs Bay shook her head and said to Rose, " Rose, dear, how are you? How's Scarlet?" 



Rose smiled at her saying " I'm fine aunty, mom is also fine... " After saying this she turned her head to look at her father before continuing "..mom is on her vacation." 



"Ohhhh... Now you should stay with us then. I doubt now that, Scar will be returning after one year, maybe."



"No, aunty. Actually mom has left last month."


"What?" Mr Lee


"What?" Mrs Lee


"!!!" Mr Bay


Everyone were shocked hearing this. It's been one month since her mom left her and this girl is living alone since then?  Even though Mr Bay didn't voiced out his shocked expression, but it was seen clearly on his face.


"Now, you are living with us, that's all. How can you live alone like that? It's too dangerous for an young girl to live alone." Mrs Lee continued with her argument.



" It's okay aunty. I'm used to that. There is no need to worry about me. "



"..." Mr Lee


"..." Mrs Lee


"..." Mr Bay


------

Back to Eve and Adam's side.

Seeing the questioning gazes of the three people, Jack scratched his back of head before seeing them again.

" Yes sis in law, I know Rose a long back ago when I saw eighteen." He said smiling like a fool who was in love.

"Don't say she was your first love!" Adam asked him with a serious gaze towards him.



"What first love?" Eve was confused hearing the conversation between them. Though she understand that Jack and Rose know each other but the first love concept she didn't understand.

"Means she was your teenage love?" Now it was Peter turn to question him, to which Jack just nodded his head.

"Then you deserved this." Adam said shaking his head.

"And you even dare to tease her in front of us?" Peter asked him with raising his one eyebrow to dare him to admit it.

Jack shook his head saying, " Guys this is not fair. I know, I was wrong back then. But past is past. Now again I have seen her, I can't leave her like that. "

"We'll break your legs if you again went behind her." Peter threatened him again.

"And you know what?" Saying this Adam wrapped his arm around Eve's shoulders before turning back to him saying " Eve is Rose's elder sister. "

Jack expression was quite shocked. He thought that Rose and Eve were just friends, and he even thought that he would get help of Eve for convincing Rose in the future. But who would have thought that, he would receive this surprise twist back to him only?.


"Adam, Peter, can you guys tell me what's going on in here?" Eve asked looking at both her husband and Peter.

"Sweetheart, I'll tell you afterwards. Okay?"

"But..." When she was about to argue further, she noticed the shock expressions on Mr and Mrs Lee and her dad.

"Adam I'll be back. You guys carry on." Saying this she left the three people in a rush after Adam nodded his head and kissed her on her head.


------------


Back here again these three were surprised. This time they don't know how to talk. Finally, Mr Bay asked her " Why did you say you are used to live like that? How long you have been living like that all alone?"



Rose didn't answered but just bit her lip and lowered her head. When she didn't answered and seeing her lowered her head, Mrs Lee called her with a questioning tone "Rose?"



"It's been nine years that she has been living like that alone. She was eleven when Mom left her in the school hostel." Now it was Eve how answered there question. 

When Ever was talking with her husband, Peter and Jack, she noticed the shock expression on their faces. So she left them and walked towards her parents. But when she came closer to them, she heard Mr Bay's question. But seeing that her sister didn't replied to there question, Eve answered to them instead. 


Now that she had the chance to bring back her sister to their home, how can she leave the opportunity like that?


"W-what?" Mr Bay. Before Mr and Mrs Lee was spoken, it was the first time Mr Bay voiced out his shocked expression.

"Nine years!?" Both Mr and Mrs Lee said in union.


"Yes mom. Rose lived all this year's in the school hostel." 

She turned to her father and continued "Dad, I have tried to say to you but...." Before Ever could complete her sentence Mr Bay had left them.


"Dad!" Rose called him with worried toned.

"It's okay Rose. Just give him time. He'll be fine." Eve stopped her sister for following her dad. 

Mrs Lee was already wiping. She couldn't imagine, that a eleven year old child has left alone in the school hostel even if she has a whole family. She went and hugged Rose.

"Mom, don't cry. Rose will stay with us from now onwards." Eve went and hugged both Rose and Mrs Lee who were hugging each other to console her.


Mr Bay was couldn't believe what he had just heard. He couldn't believe that, his beloved wife has left their child in the school hostel all alone in these years. He started blaming himself now. 

'How can she leave my daughter all alone in the school hostel?'

' Is she that possessed with her dream that she can leave their daughter like that? '

'I hate her.' 


' I hate myself for leaving my daughter all alone in these years without looking back even once.'

Mr Bay was feeling guilty for leaving his daughter with her mother all these years. 

He was feeling guilty for not caring all these years for her. Though he missed them and lived then but because of his anger towards them, he didn't see the live he has for her.


Now that he know that, Rose was living all alone all these years, he decided that, he won't allow his younger daughter to go back to her mother.


'I won't allow her now, again to go back to that lonely world of hers.' Saying this he promised himself before leaving the engagement party of his elder daughter.

Seduction is a story in which Love and Cupid play one of the role in art of love making between Adam and Eve.

 I chose to write this story is to give, for my dear reader and friends, the idea of seduction which plays one of the important role in love making in our daily lives.

"What do you mean by "reading books" ?" Laena asked as she stared at Jack's smiling face.

"Well, you do know that I wish to find the missing parts of my former body don't you?" Seeing that she nodded, he then continued : "We still need to find where they are supposed to be. Since getting access to those information as adventurers isn't the fastest way, I went ahead and... Borrowed some books. If we are lucky we should find some mentions about old ruins or temples and maybe we'll find what we are searching for."

"Borrowed?" The elf repeated while raising an eyebrow. 

"Yeah, borrowing. For an undermined duration and without asking the owner's permission though." The immortal chuckled. 

The young swordwoman was about to give him a piece of mind when her fidgety and seemingly quite embarrassed took the floor:

"S-so you want us to read them..?" 

"Well, yeah. If I do it alone it's going to take way too much time." Jack shrugged. After he replied Evelyn became even more uneasy and Laena understood why was she acting like this. 

"Are you worried because you don't know how to read?" The elf asked in a kind voice. 

"Yes..." 

"Don't worry young one, we'll take the time to teach you then." Jack intervened. "I too thought that I wouldn't be able to read the language but you are surprisingly using the same letters as we did in our time. The only troublesome part is the translation but I'm steadily learning thanks to you two. Thanks for you help." 

Smiles bloomed on their faces and Evelyn seemed to relax as she knew that they were not going to let her down for such a small flaw. Knowing that her teacher had learned her language this fast made her curious and she couldn't help but wonder out loud :

"Did you truly learn the Kaldurian this fast? Were you a genius before teacher?" The look she had on her face was the same as a child speaking to her hero and this made Laena nearly laugh while Jack felt quite embarrassed to idolized like this. Scratching the nape of his neck he replied :

"I'm not the kind of outstanding character you think I am, really. If I had to compare myself to other... I was above average I guess, but certainly not a prodigy. Furthermore, it's easy to learn a language once you speak with people and translate thanks to magic." He explained with a wry smile. 

"You're not a genius yet you have enough talent to grasp my family's fighting style within a few weeks." Laena said in a sarcastic tone. During their usual practice session he showed off an incredible learning progression and soon his prowess's were good enough for her to recognize her fighting style in his moves.  

"That's because it was easy to learn." Jack shrugged. When he saw the angry gaze of his elven friend which had spent years to repeat what he had done in weeks he corrected himself : "I've spent eons on theorizing and training every kind of art possible. Grasping the basics of a fighting style is pretty easy as it is mainly copying and repeating." 

"Does that mean that you can use any weapon easily?" The elf asked as an image of a weapon master beating every other expert appeared in her mind. 

"Yes, but I won't be able to defeat someone way more experienced than I do." The immortal chuckled as he understood the fantasies she was dreaming about. "You and I are still basic swordsmen, even together we won't be able to touch an hair of a swordsmaster. Do you have any idea why?" 

"Because he has polished his swordsmanship even further...?" Laena replied. 

"Yes and no, that mainly a myth." The disappointment and confusion appearing on both of his student faces made him smile and he continued :" I won't fear someone who has spent all his life in seclusion to train. What make a warrior powerful is his experience and his previous fights on death's line. Getting used to faints, surprises and the battlefields in general allow you to polish your instinct and your fighting style. If practicing is ten time better than learning then fighting for you life against somebody is one hundred time better." 

The two girls thought about what he had said for a few seconds and Evelyn asked: 

"But isn't it a bit... Dangerous? I mean, you risk your life every time so there isn't many people who manage to progress like this no?" 

"That's why those who dare to go again on the battlefield are way scarier than the cowards who only practice indoor." Jack replied with a terrifying grin on his face. 

They continued to chat as they walked further on their road and reached the city after another day of travel. The only memorable moment of their trip was when they saw a bunch of well equipped adventurers go in the other way for what they thought would probably be eliminating the wyvern. 

Reaching the gate while the sun was high in the sky, they got quite a few curious gazes from the other people who were waiting for their ID to be checked as Jack's staff seemed even more tortured than before as he refined it even further. Yet, no one dared to make a comment and they simply went through after the guards confirmed their adventurers cards.  

They then went to confirm the completion of their quest as Jack told his students that they would need to go where the books were during the night. The two girls wondered why but didn't think much of it as they entered the guild's building soon after. Pushing the door, they were surprised by the noise and the mass of people which were inside, packed like wolves around a prey. 

Observing the scene a little further they saw that many of those noisy guys were quite well dressed and looked more like nobles than adventurers. Laena frowned a little before covering her ears from the rumor coming from those men who were trying to rise their voices higher than the others to be heard. There were also women in the crowd who were making hysterical screams like groupies who saw their idols for the first time. 

Jack was about to make them shut it up with a pulse of killing intent when he heard the guild master furiously screams :

"Enough ! All those who aren't adventurers, get out immediately !" 

Rising their eyes to the staircase to see who dared to say that to them, the group of people saw that it was the guild master and promptly left the venue. The only ones remaining were a few young adventurers who were looking at a man in shiny armor with admiration in their eyes. 

Before they spoke Richard roared again :

"And you Giorgio, come in my office right now !" 

"Yes, yes. No need to be a killjoy like this." The armored guy said before saluting his fans with a smile and going toward the stairs. 

"What the hell was that..." Laena muttered as the last people scattered and left the place nearly empty. 

"No idea and I don't want to know, thanks to this bullcrap I've already got a headache." Jack grunted before going toward the counter to redeem his quest.

 Linda wasn't there but one of her colleague accepted the party's explanation and paid them. The poor office worked had a tired look on his face and by the scared gaze he gave to them when they went toward him they understood that he had also spent a terrible moment with all those weird guys coming there. 

After having eaten a good meal the girls wanted to do some training so Jack followed them toward a plain outside the city and worked on his longsword under an oak's shades. He looked at them fighting with normal weapons since fire magic would be a little too flashy and gave them advice for their practice of wind and gravity magic when they sat as their muscles were sore. 

The girls seemed to have enjoyed their day and they all happily went toward the inn in order to wait for the night to fall. 

"Where will we be going by the way?" Laena asked between two mouthfuls of mashed vegetables. 

"In the slums." Jack announced while enjoying some wine in a ceramic cup. There were many people in the living room so the background noise didn't make his voice easily understandable for the others. Otherwise, some would have screamed that he was crazy or a criminal in order to wish to bring two girls in such a dangerous spot. 

"The slums? There are books in the slums?" Evelyn asked as didn't think that it was the best place to find rare items like those. 

"Yes, at least there are those I hid." The immortal murmured loud enough for the two to hear.

His students gulped a little when they saw his wolfish smile and after a dozen minutes they headed out while wearing cloaks of dark cloth they bought while coming back. Quickly crossing a few roads they reached the outer part of the city where many half destroyed houses were hardly standing. 

Moans sometimes came from the houses with ladies lightly clothed standing outside and when they walked in front of them Laena got beet red before hurriedly covering Evelyn's ears. Her childish reactions made Jack laugh quite a lot and they funny behavior soon made them stand out from the others people who were in the same alley as them. 

A few minutes later, a pickpocket tried his chance with them. Unfortunately for him, the immortal had noticed his petty strategy when the guy bumped into him "accidentally" and promptly broke his wrist. The thief' screams of pain gave the guys who were ravenously eyeing the two girls an impression of who they were dealing with and the abrupt stop of the noises followed with the sound of a neck breaking announced what awaited them if they dared to touch them. 

Reclaiming his purse alongside his victim's one, Jack showed a satisfied smile as he felt the fear spread to their surroundings. His students simply sighed as they slowly got used to his methods to deal with crime and they followed him to a random house in front of which he stopped before kicking open the door. 

Surprisingly, it had occupants again and the immortal noticed it when a pile of ragged clothes in a corner moved to reveal two children's heads. They looked deeply terrified and the biggest of the two got up while brandishing a knife toward Jack. 

"W-Who are you and what do you want?" He growled while trying to look scary while he stood before the second kid. They both were malnourished and dirty, giving off an impression of feral beasts while Jack and the others were more dressed like rich citizens. Sparks of blue fire danced in the immortal hands while he walked toward the two kids in a deadly silence. 

"Wait ! Those are not criminals!" Laena screamed while grabbing Jack's arm to stop him before he made a terrible mistake. "L-Let's light up torch first, maybe you didn't see right because of the darkness..." 

"I do see clearly. They are in the way and need to disappear." He stated before trying to free his arm. 

"Brother..." Said a voice coming from the small body in the corner. 

"D-don't worry I will protect you Kassandra !" Replied the kid with the knife while his grip on the weapon trembled a little. He did not know who was this man but those deep grey eyes gave him the feeling that they were looking into his soul. 

"They are just kids ! Do you really want to kill them?" The elf growled, furious. Jack felt her grip growing tighter and another smaller hand grab his other arm a few seconds later. Their actions made him stop for a second before laughing. 

"Give me one reason not to eliminate them." He said while trying to keep his mind unwavering. 

"They are innocent and won't represent a menace to you anyway." Laena sighed as she felt saddened by the cold heart of her teacher. Evelyn was feeling the same and tugged harder on his sleeve. 

Sighing, he gave up and murmured : "May your memories fly away and allow you to forget this eventful night. Remembrance Loss." 

The two thin kids both fell unconscious as Jack completed his spell before explaining :

"I'm not that good at mind magic so I may have erased more memories than needed. However, they are still alive so it's good enough isn't it?" 

He had a strained and bothered look on his face but seeing his two students thank him for his kindness and apologize for their rudeness made him chuckle as he ruffled their hairs. 

"I've been nice this time but remember that even children are our enemies and that pity isn't allowed during a war." 

"Yes !" They replied as they nodded together. 

Since the two kids would be unconscious for at least a few hours they didn't bother with moving them away and Jack opened the hole in the ground to find his hidden stash while feeling nostalgic. 

'I wonder if you would have been proud of those two girls, Nyx.' He though while opening his makeshift bag, revealing the huge amount of gold and books it held. 

"Who the hell did you steal to get that much money?" The two students asked at the same time for different reasons. One of them was scared of the consequences while the other was amazed by the gleam the coins had under the torch's radiance. 

"Uhh... A random household... Dabedon I think...?" He replied while squinting his eyes to make his memory work better.

In his quest to create Life, Jack broke a taboo and became cursed in return : He would be forced to spend his life alone as an immortal being. To add salt to the injury, his family was murdered before his very eyes and his magic sealed away. After spending millennia awaiting in his prison underground, The Lifomancer is finally free and he's out for blood !
