Lucius paced back and forth in the 2nd hut he had in the woods to the west.

He was thinking.

Thinking about what to do with Sam's situation, and how to keep the townspeople from crying out to burn both of them at the stake for the crime of witchcraft. Despite the fields of curse magic, body alteration magic and life magic being established schools of practice, the general populace were still fearful and vindictive towards what they perceived as the perversion of nature and life.

Having nearly a hundred years of experience, being a devotee to the expansion of knowledge, and being the top borrower at all the libraries on the central and east continent [returning the books every few years or so], he had fancied himself as somewhat of a muse. But now he was stumped.

Spells or potions that sped up growth, or ones that expanded the body did exist. However, these functioned all at a permanent cost to the user's future potential and vitality. He cracked his head, but didn't know of any spell, condition or power that would grow a person's body like this; where the body's development and aging were not affected, and the individual's vitality was even more exuberant than before.

No matter how long he thought or from which angle he approached it from, all he drew were blanks. Even if Sam were not his own flesh and blood and a through and through human, there weren't even any races exhibiting these growth patterns.

Sighing, Lucius stopped his pacing and stepped outside for fresh air - and to watch Sam training.

The girl was moving according to the footwork he had just taught her, familiarizing herself with her "new" body. She was at one moment lunging forward in a low stance, and in the next moment soaring through the air in a twisting 1080° somersault, before performing a low spin with her arms and legs and whole body nearly perpendicular to the ground.

Lucius nodded in approval - the girl had always shown talent for physical aspects. It was just her mana affinity that left him helpless... He sighed again.

He could only help her to sharpen the weapons she already had, and ceaselessly search for a solution for her mana denying body.

Walking over to the clearing where the girl was still training, he called out to her, "Good movements! If I didn't know better, I'd think you've been training for years!" He smiled in approval; eliciting a happy smile from the girl, elated to receive his praises.

She came over to meet him halfway as he was walking, then asked, "That was fun! What's next, grandpa?"

Lucius couldn't help but to stop and admire the person who was the very image of her father - handsome, tall, dashing, gentle eyes, broad shoulders and a lean well-muscled body.

Problem was - Sam wasn't supposed to look like a teenage girl's heart-throb...

Sighing, he said, "Alright! Get cleaned up. I'll set out some new clothes for you now that you're bigger."

As the girl hopped and skipped away, Lucius sighed again - at least she hadn't developed her womanly characteristics yet - he could still make this work. For now.

* * * * * * * * * * *

Stella and Marie were best friends.

They had grown up as neighbours, and had played together for many years before entering the temple of Uro. Theirs was a life-long bond that had went through thick and thin - at least as far as challenges go for 14 year olds.

But today they were enemies.

"Do you really think Reeve would like someone so low-breed like a swine farmer's daughter? Pah! You must be dreaming! You swine farmers should stick together and give us your blessing!" Marie was fuming at Stella's bragging, as she stood by her workdesk where she was supposed to be doing the accounts for the temple.

"Hmmph!" Stella was irked despite holding the advantage in their competition for the boy. She shifted on the bench she was sitting on to face Marie. "You're just jealous that he asked *me* for help and not you! Why, he must have been waiting all this while for a chance to talk to me!" Stella put on a dreamy look, then shot a glance at Marie as if to say "so-there".

"Y-you? Waiting all this while to talk to you?" Marie sputtered in mock amazement, "Do you think any boy would like a rough and tough broad like you? Anyone who remembers just how manly your mother was would--"

"Marie!" Stella snapped, her eyes glistening. Marie knew she had touched on an area she shouldn't have.

"You... You..." tears were welling up in the girl's eyes as she scrunched up her face in hurt - the memories of her mother's death were still raw in the heart of the teenage girl.

Her mother, as one of the town guard captains, lost her life when Stella was only 11, during a beastman and barbarian raid. It was a young and courageous Reeve who protected her and her younger siblings when they thought they would be goners for sure.

Marie - as the antagonist in this spat - was filled with remorse - best friends shouldn't be arguing like this, should they...? Especially not until the shedding of tears and until their friendship was at risk of falling apart.

"Stella... I'm, I'm sorry... I was just jealous of how you're the only girl that training freak has spoken to in the past weeks. Apart from his little sister and that demon girl of course." Marie sat down beside Stella, drawing close to comfort her. "I know you've always liked him since their family moved here. And especially when he became your knight in shining armour."

Stella, wiping away her tears, turned to look at Marie. "Do you know how much I wish I were beautiful and graceful like you...?" She revealed her insecurities and deepest fears, "What you said... Isn't it true? How could someone so coarse and unrefined like me get Reeve? I'm just dreaming..."

By now Marie was sniffling too. "At least he talked to you... The last time he spoke to me was... Well, never." She smiled with a tinge of amusement and self-pity, "I'm sure we're not the only girls tearing their hair out wondering who Reeve will choose..."

Stella couldn't help but giggle when she thought of how the other girls must be agonising over the same thing. Then she smiled. "Thanks for being here, Marie."

Marie returned her smile. "Best friends?"

"Best friends."

Then they saw him.

If Reeve were the image of masculinity, intense as a raging fire and solid as the earth they stood on, "he" would be like the refreshing summer breeze that swept away one's fatigue, or the waters that calmed one's heart even of the deepest worries.

Simultaneously and in an instant, the girl's gazes locked onto him and they flashed a look at one another.

Then they began quarelling again, this time over who would get to serve the new prince charming.

* * * * * * * * * *

"Welcome to the temple of Uro! Our goddess is magnanimous and kind, always ready to bestow her grace upon the ailing people! I'm Stella, apprentice priestess--"

"And I'm Marie, *ahem* her senior... apprentice priestess. How may our lady bless your life today...?"

Lucius was surprised. Normally the temple was so busy they would have to wait an hour, and even then they would only have 1 priest or priestess to serve them. He looked around and was confused as he saw many unattended penitents. Then he saw the two girls preening and trying to draw the clueless girl's [Sam's] attention. His face froze over.

The boy/ girl had already caused a commotion all the way from the shrine to the temple on the other side of town, with many murmurs of "Is he a prince...?" or, "Who's that man...? Is he a model...?" 

Sam was dressed in a simple but smart looking set of Lucius' old clothes - a dark grey shirt with matching pants, and black leather boots. As they were made of high grade mana-infused cloth and leather, it looked relatively new despite accompanying him for more than 20 years. 

She looked like a kind hearted, noble and athletic pretty boy...

Lucius nearly face-palmed himself - what trouble was Sam going to be causing with his... *Ahem*, her gender bending good looks...?

"This is my granddaught- I mean, grandson, Sam, Samuel. She... He's been traveling since he's young, and his parents just left him with me yesterday. He's just turned 15, but he, he hasn't had an affinity, talent or capability test before. Yes, that, that's how it is." Lucius struggled to get the words out, his face was pale as he intermittently coughed while telling his prepared story.

The two girls were swooning too much to notice the various inconsistencies and irregularities in his explanation, so they scrambled closer to "Samuel" to grab his arm and lead him to the testing area. They shot each other daggers with their stares, then settled for one arm each.

"So, Samuel. To help our test, could you tell us what your innate talent is...?" it was Marie's turn to speak; giving him her best smile with sparkling eyes.

Samuel replied without thinking, "Getting lucky." He didn't notice the two girls turning beet red as they blushed, misunderstanding that he would be so open and direct about his promiscuity... Though neiether of them would mind if it were them and he brought them away from this little town after that.

"W-w-what do you mean by luc--" Marie overcame her embarrassment to ask, only to be cut off by a harsh cough by Stella, who flashed her venomous looks as if to tell her to keep to her turn.

"Ahem, since it's my turn to speak," Stella began. "W-w-whaf do you mean by being lu-lu-lu-lucky...?" She was blushing furiously as she wondered if he meant *that* kind of lucky.

The two's legs grew weak and they had to lean heavily on Sam's arm to prevent themselves from fainting in shock when they heard his answer: "Oh, well, a Mr Handsome fell from a tree, so I took him home to my bed... I was very lucky that day, he's very good to me and even gave me..." Sam pointed to his metallic hair ornament, "...this as a gift before he left. He said he'll come back to play with me again."

"P-p-p-play?!?"

*thump*

The sounds of three bodies slumping to the floor could be heard.

Sam helped the two girls up, even as they were pallid and seemed to suddenly turn extremely awkward towards her.

Then the trio looked back to see Lucius dusting himself off, as if he had just gotten up but didn't want anyone to know.

"Ahem. Nothing happened. Carry on."

The trio shrugged and continued on, the girls shaken. Sam continued on, her 10 year old mind oblivious to the bombshell she had unknowingly dropped. The two girls looked listless and stumbled every now and then as they numbly walked to the testing area. They were completely silent and no longer held Sam's arms; unable to accept what they had just heard.

If they had looked back again, they would have seen an old man with a pale face, reeling from a blow heavier than that of any god he had faced.

How was he going to salvage this situation...?

His mind raced as he could already hear tomorrows news: Lucius' grandson sleeping around with every handsome man who drops by.

Systems? Transmigrators? Gods?
No problem! All will crumble under my fists!
Smashing dragons, devils and heros into meat patties!
Still, she has a dream - "When will I have a boyfriend...?"

"If the wretched heavens are against me..."
"...Then I shall BREAK the heavens!"

Sam is an orphan with a dream: a simple life and happy family. Nearly talent-less (and ahem, a little slow witted...), she has only her two (overpowered) fists to rely on in a world that seems determined to make her forever-alone.

Follow her story as she falls in love and learns what it means to experience loss;
Shares thick and thin with the most unexpected companions;
Faces betrayal by the ones she thought were the closest;
And learns to open her heart again to trust.

Heero departed to Morabaka City in high spirits and expectation. As Saint's disciple, he was confident in his strength. Even though he never experienced the outside words, his seven fairy mothers always told him everything about the outside world. Moreover, in his Master's library, there was a history of humanity and important event was also recorded in a book.

He wanted to be a Legendary Hero. To be a Legendary Hero, he needed to defeat God. Whether it was God Beast or God Specter, he needed to defeat one of them to be a Legendary Hero.

However, for now, Heero realized that to defeat a god with his current was unrealistic. For now, he planned to raise his rank slowly.

For now, his rank was an apprentice hero, the lowest one. Above Apprentice Hero was Intermediate Hero and Advance Hero. People usually called Intermediate Hero as lower-level Beginner Hero and upper-level Beginner Hero when one reached Advance Hero.

Above Beginner Hero, it was Master and Grand Master. Above Master and Grandmaster was King, King of Heroes. This rank was only for Hero who had defeated King or Emperor Specter/Beast.

However, Heero did not want to be just King, he wanted to be a Legend. He wanted to be what his Grandfather yearned for.

"I will be a Legend!" Heero clenched his palm into a fist and aimed to the sky.

"But before that, I will have to reach Morabaka City first!" Heero put his hand down and went to sleep.

Currently, he was staying in the wilderness. His Master said it would take a month trip to reach Morabaka from Nebraska. Heero was still halfway to reach Morabaka.

The next morning, Heero continued his journey to Morabaka. His journey to Morabaka was smooth, he encountered no Specter and Beast at all.

Fifteen days passed by and finally, Heero got to see Morabaka's metal wall. As one of the five biggest cities, Morabaka had another name, Unbreachable Fortress.

The black metal wall left Heero in amazement. When one just looked at the metal wall, it would leave an oppressive feeling. Heero rushed to the gate.

He wanted to enter the city directly, he was eager to see what Morabaka City looked like. However, before he could enter, there were two guards blocked him with their spears.

"Kid, you have to pay if you want to enter the city!" A guard full of beard said to Randy.

Heero realized his mistake. If one wanted to enter the city, they had to pay and it applied to the normal citizen, merchants, etc. However, if it was Hero, they did not need to pay as long as you showed Hero Identity Card.

Heero did not wear plate armor or leather armor like a normal hero would wear, but casual clothes. So the guards mistook him as a normal citizen.

"Oh, I am sorry Uncle. I am a Hero!" Heero apologized and showed his identity card as a Hero proudly.

The guard surprised when they saw the identity card. They thought Heero was just a normal netizen who just back from the other city.

The guard did not directly let Heero in. A guard with full of beard took the identity cars. He wanted to check it. When he saw who approved and made the identity card, the bearded-guard surprised.

Archief Priest Salomon Arkshain, one of twelve Archief Priests. The guard immediately gave the id card back to Heero. With a smile, the bearded guard let Heero in.

"Good Luck, Boy!"

Getting one card approved by Archief Priest meant Heero was a real deal.

Heero took back the id card and thanked the guard, "Thank you, Uncle!"

When he was inside the city, Heero was not surprised anymore. It because Morabaka City was completely ordinary compared to Nebraska City.

"Hmm, let's just head to Hero Guild!" Heero did not have the interest to walk around of Morabaka City.

If Nebraska Temple was a place where he could become a Hero, then Hero Guild was a place where Hero working. Hero Guild would provide the mission and Hero Guild was also the one who determined the hero rank.

Even though Morabaka City was a foreign place for Heero, but he did not have a problem to find where Hero Guild was. He only needed to ask a passerby. When it came about Hero, even you were stranger, they would gladly help.

Hero Guild was located at the north of Morabaka City. The biggest building in the north was Hero Guild. It was easy to find.

Heero entered Hero Guild and went directly to the counter.

"Hello, my name is Heero. I am here reporting that I will work here from now on!"

Finally, Heero's career as Hero formally started.

…

In one a bar, east district of Morabaka City

Heero gulped a glass beer in one gulp and released out a sigh. It's been a year since he arrived at Morabaka City to start his career as Heero.

He started his career pretty good and caused controversy as he advanced to Beginner-Intermediate Hero just in one month. It was not that the fastest, but it was exceptional.

However, even though Heero advanced to Beginner-Intermediate Hero in one month, he was still stuck in Beginner-Advance Hero after a year. He took a month to advance to Intermediate Hero, but it took him 11 months to raise his rank to Advance Hero.

Of course, the problem was not with him, but the mission. One could advance to Intermediate Hero by completing 3 lower-level Beginner Missions or killing a thousand undead.

Undead was rank 1 specter, people usually called rank 1 specter undead because they did not have intelligence. Specter was an undead who gained intelligence.

Heero advanced to Intermediate Hero by killing a thousand undead. It was an easy feat. However, in order to raise his rank to Advance Hero, Heero needed to kill a hundred thousand undead or complete 20 Beginner Missions.

The problem was, Hero Guild hardly came up with a mission. Most missions were for a high-rank Hero and Heero could not take that mission because of his low-rank Hero. Even Hero Guild issued a Beginner Mission, there would be many Beginner Heroes would fight over it, first come first serve. It was the rule.

Wiping out undead was the easy choice. However, the problem was hard to find a hundred thousand undead. Heero managed to kill seventy thousand undead and finish 6 Beginner Missions in 11 months to raise his rank to Advance Hero.

Now, to raise his rank to Master Rank Hero, he had to kill ten million undead or a million rank 2 Specter (low-level Specter Knight) or a hundred thousand rank 3 specter (Intermediate-level Specter Knight).

The problem was they could only find rank 2 Specter or rank 3 Specter when war broke. Heero now stuck at Advance Rank Hero, he had a headache to raise his rank.

"Oya boy, do you have a problem? If you want to solve your virginity problem, then I will gladly help you!" A woman behind the counter approached Heero.

This woman was the owner of this bar. Heero was regular in this bar and he was familiar with the Boss, Marie Arossia. She was a hot woman, mature face, hot body, and her long legs had charmed many youths. There was another name for the Boss, Virgin Killer.

It was said if one wanted to solve your virginity problem, you only needed to come here.

Marie appeared to be in her early thirties, but Heero did not know the exact. He heeded his fairy mom advice, "Never ask a lady's age!" However, Marie indeed looked like a person who had many experiences.

Heero just waved his hand to Marie listlessly. He did not have the interest to joke with Marie. As for his virgin body, he would trust it to his future wife. For now, he just wanted to dedicate himself to be a great Hero.

Marie also noticed Heero seemed to be in a low mood. She did not continue the talk about the virgin.

"If you have a problem, just share it with this elder sister, maybe I can help you, "

It was not bad having a friend to talk about your problem with. Heero told the problem he faced to Marie.

However, upon hearing the complete story, Marie looked at Heero weirdly which made Heero uncomfortable.

"What? Just laugh if you want!" Heero frustrated.

Instead of laughing, Marie pulled Heero's ear, "In one year you managed to raise two ranks and you still think it's too slow? You are surely asking for a beating!"

"Ouch! Ouch! Pain pain pain!" Heero complained as he tried to release the hand from his ear.

Marie released her hand and asked seriously, "Let me ask you, why do you want to raise your rank quickly? What's your purpose?"

"Heh, I want to be a Legendary Hero as soon as possible. I want everyone knows my name, I want to be Legend just like Hero Mikail and it will be like this: Xing Heero, the Legendary Hero from Xing Village!" Heero declared proudly.

"Then, how soon? How soon do you want to be a Legend?" Marie asked again.

"Fi…" Heero stopped. He wanted to reply in five years, he would be a legend in five years, but he knew he would get another scold if answered like that.

"Ten years, maybe?" Heero answered in a small voice.

Tak!

Marie instantly flicked Randy forehead as soon as she heard the answer. And surprisingly, it was more painful than his ear being pulled.

"Ten years and you want to be a legend like Hero Mikail!?" Marie seemed to be agitated, but Heero still nodded his head.

Tak!

Heero received another flick from Marie. However, instead of scolding Heero, Marie was taking a deep breath, trying to calm herself down.

After a while, Marie calmed down and looked at Heero seriously.

"Let me ask you, how long it is before Hero Mikail could become a legend?"

"302 years!" Heero answered instantly and firmly. The history of Legend, Randy remembered it completely.

"Then what about Hero Garam?"

"341 years!" Heero answered in confusion. He did not get why did Marie ask him about this.

"Hero Virgil?"

"278 years!" Here, Heero realized why did Marie ask this.

"Hero Guan?"

"190 years!" Here, Heero's voice getting smaller as he realized his mistake.

Marie kept asking another three legends and Heero answered it truthfully. However, his voice was getting smaller and smaller as he answered Marie's question.

"Do you understand, right?" Marie said it in an annoyed tone.

Randy nodded his head meekly. He did not dare to meet his eyes with Marie's.

Amongst the seven legends recorded in a book, Hero Guan was the fastest to be a Legendary Hero. He slew God Specter 190 years after his debut as hero.

Here, He was so cocky declaring he would be a Legend in ten years. Heero was so ashamed for his declaration.

"I am sorry!" Heero apologized for his cockiness.

Marie waved her hand, "It's good if you realize it. Also, It's good if you want to be a legend as soon as possible, but Hero mattered not only rank, you know? Hero Guild set the rank not merely for you to show off, but for your own good. With rank, you will know your limit. So you know which one you can fight and which one you can't! With rank, Hero Guild can reduce the Hero casualties, do you understand?"

It was rare for Marie to talk about this serious. She seemed to care a lot about Heero.

Heero nodded his head, "I know! Thank you, Lady Boss!"

"It's good you understand! By the way, why do you want to be a Legend as soon as possible? I am curious!" Marie was truly curious.

Heero told the truth, about his village got attacked by specter and his family which also died during that event. He told Marie why he wanted to be a Legend. Of course, he did not tell Marie about Saint and his hellish training.

"Hmm, " Marie held her chin as she nodded her head.

"In that case, I will help you…" Marie got closer to Heero and whispered something.

The more Heero heard it, his eyes became brighter and brighter.

This is a work of fiction. Any names, characters, stories or events, are fictitious!

~~~~~~~~~~~~

At the most unfortunate day which also the luckiest day for Xing Heero, his village was attacked by a specter. He lost family, his childhood sweetheart, he lost everything. However, on the same day, the strongest man called Saint picked him up as his disciple.

After years of training under the strongest man, Saint. To fulfill his Grandfather's dream to be a Great Hero, Heero started his career as a Hero. Heero was determined to kill specter and would not let any child experienced the same experience as him.

However, maybe he had used all his luck to get the strongest man as his Master. Somehow, all of his achievement was stolen by the other heroes. The unfortunate event kept happening to Heero which led all of his achievement being robbed by the other Heroes.

In the last of his unfortunate event, he tried to kill God Specter, but it only ended him up sealed in Eternal Ice. The last moment before Heero lost consciousness, he vowed he would retire as Hero.

"Father! Mother! I will be obedient! I will stop to be Hero and continue our family line, please release me from this Eternal Ice!"

It's been thirty years since it happened but it feels like yesterday....... maybe that's what happens when you've just found out that you can live “FOREVER". 
I can't tell you my name or where am from,I can't disclose where I live......or at least used to live. I am monster yet the disgrace of my clan,I don't drink what they drink. I don't want to be like them,......I want to "die". Isn't that what human beings do? That will never happen,I know for sure. I AM NEVER GOING TO DIE. Maybe I will but this monster in me never will. 
Vampires are strong,scary and practically invincible but not this vampire! She does not like the taste of blood,mirrors, garlic,loves being in the sun and is the disgrace of her entire clan. What will happen to the young vampire who doesn't want to be a vampire.....

She stood by a wall,her shadow resting against the floor. She was about seventeen years old....or was she? She stood six feet tall,red hair, blue eyes and and lush red lips. She was wearing a black net blouse and black tights with black boots. Her whole demeanor was intimidating yet she was harmless. 
Most of her clan drank what she would never drink and do what she would never do. How much she hates the sight of red....used to be her favorite color but now...? How far can she run away from red or the sight and memory of it? She is red headed and her name means red and even her zodiac sign signifies red. This can't be a coincidence or can it? Is this where she really belongs? Is this the life she is made for. Can she really go back to her past life? How much she hates being stuck in two worlds?
She is a rebel in both her worlds,she will hunt you down if need be. But now she can't be so sure,she is weak and starving. She hasn't fed in years and it's wearing her out. She knows she can't stay long without blood but she is determined to starve herself to death. Too bad Vampires can't die....or don't die. How did things go wrong for the red haired Aodh Scarlett Flynn?
____________
She was born on the 21st of March,an Aries. She is Irish and American. She was born a twin. Her sister Ambrosia Tuesday Flynn was killed by an occult group during Halloween. Strange things aren't strange anymore as even the word is engraved in her story. All this... being a vampire and all. It all started thirty years ago.

Flashback,thirty years ago. 
.........This can't be happening to me-no,not at all. I had my whole life planned out in front of me,I was a rebel-yes but that didn't mean I didn't want a life. A life with Ian,I hadn't gotten my revenge with Arianna. I haven't avenged my sister's death. Too bad am about to join her. Too bad am getting crushed between two walls. The bricks fell and made a wall with a small crevice. I walked through the wall in an attempt to be with the others but it was too late, useless. The wall closed. I was trapped. Forever.

A week after that incident with Lester, the landlady handed me a stationary envelope with my name on it. It wasn't stamped so I assumed it was hand carried by someone.  I knew it was from Mark but I didn't know how this letter got here. I rushed to my room and excitedly opened it. 
It said:
Hi Fem Sweetheart!
This letter shouldn't come as a surprise to you. Infact, I expect that you are expecting it earlier than now. I went to your workplace before and found out you weren't there anymore. I didn't know you had to go too soon. I say, I wasn't prepared to miss you yet. These past few weeks, I felt I was already a widower. Why had I become so hopeless thinking I won't see you anymore?
Sweetheart, you never stop surprising me! How could you be so secretive towards this Intelligence agent? Just when I thought I knew you, you went leveling up! Darling, you captivated me with your wits and charm and now I'm all the more captivated by your brilliance and strength! How could you be so amazing?
Marie told me that you are actually starting your third year in college and you're one of the top students in your school! I am not surprised though. As you know, I always thought you are someone way ahead from others of your age. To be honest with you, when you mentioned about going to school, I hesitated thinking that its quite a long journey for me and you. Now it seems I got a 50%off from that long wait. Im so glad thinking that we can share our lives together soon. I hope you are thinking of me too no matter how busy your school days are.
As for me, I am now ranking for promotion and  hoping to be promoted by next month.This career will be taking me everywhere in and outside of the city as the work demands. This may affect the frequency of our communication but I will make sure to send you an update everytime I get a break. Meanwhile, do focus on your studies and don't forget to miss me. We will be fine soon sweetie, pls don't worry.
However, I do just have one worry about us dear. You probably don't know that I am a very possessive lover. I always feel uncomfortable everytime I think that you are letting someone touch you the way I do. I saw this when you were at work in the bar. Did you know I wanted to strangle everyone of those men who look at you with bulging eyes? I'm quite sure you got more of those way back there.  I hope you can assure me peace regarding this. I also heard you had a boyfriend before me. That scares me! Im honest! But I trust your heart. You can trust mine as well. 
And just one reminder Fem Law, remember our last night together. I hope you were not drunk that time. I suppose not, because I believed every word you said.
I miss your smiles, your fingers with mine, you humour, your kisses and most especially you. I can't wait to be surprised by you again. Send me a reply ASAP.  I'm desperately missing you Fem Law. Till next time...

Only yours,
JMA

I read and reread and read it again, I cant stop myself from smiling wide and feeling loved and all the more inspired. 'How corny!' I mumbled as I put the letter in my treasure box then shoved it in the innermost part of my bed drawer.
 'Ahhhh... I miss you so much too!' was all I could silently say in my heart. Words could not express my longing to see him. If I only had the wings to fly to him, I could have done it countless time already. How could  he say he admire my strength? I am too weak and vulnerable as far as I know myself.
I stared absent mindedly at the window opposite my study table. My brother Niel sat down at the left side to do his homework. I sat down opposite him.

"Had that Lester been talking to you?" I asked distracting my thoughts from that letter.

"Yep! he would greet me every time he sees me. He addresses me as his brother-in-law in fact." He said while pouring down over his physics book. He was in his senior high school.

"Tsk! He's not my boyfriend. Stay away from him." I said flatly.

"Hmmmm... he even asked if he can come with me to visit our parents and ask your hand from them." My brother was smiling while staring at his book.

"No! What made him think of such! You must be kidding!" I stomped my feet with my eyes widened.

"Why not? Seriously, I think he is a good man for you sis!" my brother was speaking like an adviser. Perhaps he got a share also of our father's genes. He must have forgotten I was his elder sister.
I sat back on my chair and started to write my book review on child psychology but I cannot get my mind focused so I drafted a response letter to Mark's.

I wrote:

Dearest Dan Mark,

Hope this letter comes distracting you in a most destructive way! Your letter sounds corny! I don't know how to reply a letter like that, tsk!
Ha!  I can't seem to imagine how you were feeling when Marie told you about me. Pls don't believe in everything she says. You might get disappointed! But Im glad you are jealous? And I don't want to say you have all the reason to be jealous. My ex boyfriend came begging and left crying. You can be rest assured I only have you in my heart and mind. Your letter fuels me up to do better and better. Have I told you that you are my inspiration?
I'm striving to keep on despite hardship. 

Mark, I really thank God I met you. Its not by accident that He led me to work in that bar. You know, I felt so ashamed working in that place but who knew that I would meet such an amazing and loving man as you!
I chose not to tell you anything about my studies because I was a mere waitress and wanted to experience what others have been through except that they met a wrong person who impregnated them. That made me grateful to you because somehow, you respected me despite my vulnerability. Realizing it now, I can't thank you enough. I could have gone home pregnant as well.
I am now on my third year and in two years time, I hope I can finish this study. Studying isn't easy here, I'm a self supporting student but so far, all is going well. Thank God.
I always remember my words I have spoken to you during our last night together. It was just good I got a high alcoholic tolerance. Thanks to my dad's genes (he he).
John Mark Arevallo, I can't say how much I miss you. But as you said, I have to be strong, so strong I should be. Have I got any choice?
Im writing this just after reading your corny letter. My brother is staring at me like a hawk now.  I have to park my pen till next time.

Love you always,
Dina

A poor but exceptionally brilliant girl, with an adventurous spirit meets the man who caught her attention in the bar. 
She caught his attention with her mischievous smile and lazy eyes. He caught her attention by his thunderous commanding voice.

The hard and poor upbringing made her strong and mature early.
His wealthy and distinguished family didn't spoil him.

She was a topnotch student of a government school located far away from the city.
He was building his career as the most reliable intelligence agent in the entire police force of B City.

They had exchanged letters as was the only means of communication during that time. It seemed beautiful and all was well planned. He strived to visit her but never got the chance to meet her there.
She digged herself to her studies with him as her inspiration.

The pressure of hard life and busy student life occupied her. Then the preparion to start a career.
The demand of work that takes most of his time and energy. Then the woman that distracted him, his plan, his dream...

Then when they finally met.....

"Would you leave your wife for me?" she coldly asked him.

He shook his head and his lips trembled. "I... I  don't know. All I know is that....this is all your fault." He said wiping away a tear from his blurry eyes.

And it went on and on. There was much less content and there was nearly nothing that caught Mu 
Lu's eye. He looked bored as Ji Chen scrolled through the results with shining eyes. 

"Is that it? What is there to see about this? There is nothing here!"

Mu Lu growled. He was quite mad that Ji Chen would even be interested in any of this stuff. After all, Divine's were the peak existence of the entire Universe! Such stuff would be completely useless to them! 

"What do you mean nothing? Look at this, isn't this what any man would want to have!?"

Ji Chen retorted. His face was still showing his wide smile, that had a vein bulging on his forehead. 

Mu Lu traced Ji Chen's finger to the place on the screen:

---

[The Profound Knowledge of True Edge by Kane]: He had mastered the art of Edge. He had been living at the 'edge' for much of his life! His persona was something that every man wanted: Cold, aloof and badass!] Note: You will only get the manual since the art is too rare, memories cannot be transferred. 299p

---
"This is what you want?"

Mu Lu's eyebrow twitched many times reading the price tag. 299 points was a lot, in fact, he probably collected a grand total of 8000 points using the system for many millennia! He only had around 100 or 200 points maximum stored, at his peak! Yet, Ji Chen had already earned 300 points in a couple of minutes. This was bias!

"Of course! Are you jealous that you could never afford such amazing stuff?"

It seemed that Ji Chen was keeping his wide grin for this moment. To show what amazing thing that he would get... But there was a problem... Mu Lu didn't have the same tastes as Ji Chen!

"Have you gone mad? Do you think that 300 points will just come to you?"

Mu Lu spat. His eyes were red and lips were quivering.

"What do mean? 'The Profound Knowledge of True Edge' is the best way to spend my points!"

Ji Chen retorted. He stuck out his tongue to show that he was not going to listen to Mu Lu. 

"What do you mean, 'what do you mean'! What about the millions of collecter tools, alchemy and theory that still remains far from our reach! Don't you want to do something no-one has done?"

Mu Lu questioned Ji Chen like a machine-gun. Ji Chen had an annoyed face as he heard Mu Lu. 

"Do you think that stuff is useful to me? What do you think I would do with that knowledge?"

Ji Chen asked smugly. The question had really hit Mu Lu on a soft spot... 

-What would you do with the knowledge? 

The simple answer was curiosity, but was there really a necessity to waste your life in theory just to learn stuff that you wouldn't use? 

"I'm not old like you! I don't need that knowledge!"

Ji Chen extended his point causing Mu Lu to gulp. 

"You know, you may never get those points back, are you sure you want to invest in something so..."

Ji Chen finished Mu Lu's sentence:

"Awesome? Yes, that is what I'm after! Looking cool is true art! I have always wanted to just stand at the edge!"

Ji Chen started nodding, in which Mu Lu almost facepalmed.

"Just do what you want."

He spoke dully. 

"Right."

-System, buy me [The Profound Knowledge of True Edge by Kane]

[Beep!]

[Host has officially purchased 'The Profound Knowledge of True Edge by Kane' for 299 points, the host's points have gone down from 300 to 1]

Ji Chen, excited, looked towards Mu Lu:

"Do I just ask The System for the manual?"

Mu Lu had an irritated face. 

"Yes, everything is just asking The System Manually!"

He shouted. 

-System, give me [The Profound Knowledge of True Edge]

[Beep!]

[The host granted 'The Profound Knowledge of True Edge']

A manual that seemed to only have a few pages appeared in front of Ji Chen. Though it only had a few pages, Ji Chen and Mu Lu could both agree that the contents would be as detailed as it could be. After all, it had just replaced 'Profound Knowledge' with a manual. It was impossible for such a thing to cost 299 points otherwise! It likely had many Daos. 

Mu Lu didn't pay attention to Ji Chen and started to look for the 'bug'. It only took him a few seconds, before he spotted the unconscious Marie...

Watch as the youngest and strongest Divine, Ji Chen tries to live a normal life as a noble in the 33 Heavens.

He is the successor of the Three Greats!

He is Born with talent that scales above the Heavens!

Yet he doesn't want to start a dynasty even with his prowess. He wants to have one wife, a few children and a way to get over the fact that he can live over a million years. 

This is a story of how life face slaps Ji Chen into submission. (literally)

This is going to be my second novel, first being Heavenly Immortal Disciple. I will give this novel an update every 2 days. The two novels will have one chap at one day and then switch the next.

The MC will be very OP in this novel. He will try to lay low. If you hate lay low novels, then this may not be the novel for you. There will be the occasional people who do know of the MC's strength.

The novel will include a Harem. I will try not to make it too big.

Every Emperor needs a few women!
(I'm talking about MC)

This will have a system. Be warned if you hate cliche plots. Don't rig the improvements so that I cant actually improve. If you dislike the series, I would be happy for suggestions.

Please note: I don't actually own the art, please down sue me....

At this time, Lu Jingzhi took his cell phone back from Grandpa Lu before he went back to his bedroom to continue video calling his little descendant.
In the past, the old man would always talk about Lu Zongye's engagement to Jiang Yuning and he would always be preparing for their future marriage in front of Lu Jingzhi. Grandpa Lu was always stabbing him in the chest in the past and now, it was finally his turn to do the same to his grandfather.
"Second Brother, why do I feel as though you are in an extremely good mood today?" Jiang Yuning asked because she could see the softness and subtle happiness that Lu Jingzhi was showing on his face.
"I just sent Grandpa off," Lu Jingzhi said as he placed his cell phone on the dressing table and started undressing.
"Wow, Second Brother, it seem as though you are no longer that self-conscious nowadays."
As soon as Lu Jingzhi heard Jiang Yuning's words, he used a book to block the camera on his cell phone.
"Second Brother, what are you doing? I want to see your abs!"
"I don't want to show them to you," Lu Jingzhi rejected without any hesitation at all. "If you want to see them, I will then show them to you when you come back to me."
Jiang Yuning suddenly felt very upset because she had already been waiting the entire day just for this moment and it seemed as though Second Young Master Lu was going to deprive her of the one thing that she craved the most…
She was already so poor and now, she could not even admire his abs. Life was so difficult.
"Second Brother, you must already be feeling sick and tired of me. That is why you do not have anymore patience with me. Sigh. I understand why you are feeling this way. It is because when I have to leave for work, I always have to be gone for at least a few months. You are also a man and I know that you have needs that I am depriving you of."
If the little descendant was at home by his side right now, Lu Jingzhi would have definitely grabbed her and spank her ass really hard.
After that, Lu Jingzhi could not help but remove the book so that Jiang Yuning could see him again. He continued undressing as he asked, "Are you enjoying yourself?"
When Jiang Yuning saw Lu Jingzhi's muscular body, she started blushing and felt that she was losing her self control. "Second Brother…if you feel that you are suffocating and want me badly, you can come to the filming set and look for me, okay?"
"No thank you," Lu Jingzhi refused immediately.
"But why?"
"Because if I have to go over to you whenever I think of you and want you, I will never leave your side."
Jiang Yuning understood the meaning behind his words in an instance.
"Don't worry, it's almost the end of the month. I will be coming back to you really soon. Wait for me patiently!" After that, Jiang Yuning gave Lu Jingzhi a flying kiss through the camera. "Second Brother, I am really curious about this. How do you survive when you miss me badly while I am not by your side?"
"What do you think?"
If Lu Jingzhi could make it through twelve long years of separation, what was this short-term separation to him?
Jiang Yuning smiled and she had a very soft expression on her face because just like Lu Jingzhi, she understood how important they were to each other. They were finally together after being separated and missing out on twelve years together.
"Second Brother, I really miss your hugs."
"You will receive them when you come home."
Both of them continued chatting for a short while and Jiang Yuning shared some of the interesting events that had happened at the filming set lately. After some time, both of them reluctantly ended the video call because Jiang Yuning had to get up early the the morning to film her scene.
However, Jiang Yuning would never have expected that the comment that she left on the Internet using her other account would really be discovered by the fans of the <Yan Huasu> book.
Therefore, Jiang Yuning received a phone call from Vera early the next morning.
"Yuning, you got exposed!"
Jiang Yuning was confused.
"Go online and see for yourself."
Jiang Yuning quickly turned on her laptop and went on the Internet. At this time, she saw the topic <Jiang Yuning Exposed> trending on the hot search.
What was she exposed for? It turned out that the netizens and the fans of the book had discovered the identity of the person who left the comment under <Yan Huasu>'s book review section.
How could they be certain that it was Jiang Yuning?
Although Jiang Yuning did not remember this, she had used one of her own pictures as her avatar in the past and she did not even know that she had left a book review using the same account.
Furthermore, Jiang Yuning had also uploaded several pictures of her calligraphy writing and this was an empirical proof that it was indeed Jiang Yuning's account because the fans of the book immediately recognized her calligraphy writing. It looked exactly like the calligraphy writing done by Jiang Yuning, which had been circulating around the Internet previously.
[Hahaha, who says that Jiang Yuning did not read <Yan Huasu>? I checked her history and found out that Jiang Yuning had even purchased a monthly pass to read the novels online.]
['I created this world and then I destroyed this world with my own hands.' Hahaha. What kind of quotes did Jiang Yuning use in the past? I am laughing so much that my stomach is already hurting.]
[Eh! That quote is from another online novel. Did Jiang Yuning read that novel too?]
[No matter how emotional Chopin is, he can never compete with the sadness that I am feeling now. Oh my god. Is this Jiang Yuning's description of herself? I can't stop laughing at it. Hahaha…]
[Hahaha. She is really hilarious. I am laughing so much to the point of crying. Does Jiang Yuning's fans know that she is like this?]
[And I saw that she actually posted a comment to criticize Hou Da! Hahaha. She complained that she was releasing the chapters for the novel too slowly. Hahaha. Everything is on record…]
[When it comes to other artistes, we always find black materials on them when we look into their past. However, when it comes to Jiang Yuning, everything is simply too hilarious. My abs are hurting…]
[Jiang Yuning, are you a devil or an angel?]
[She had the same routine as a regular girl!]
[Just look at the amount of novels that she has already read…]
[Hahaha. Is this really Empress Jiang? It feels as though she was really a hardcore fan last night.]
Jiang Yuning then asked, "Is it too late for me to delete that account now?"
After reading all the comments, the young paparazzo also had a good time teasing Jiang Yuning. "Sister Yuning, it turns out that you also have this side to you. It seems as though you were not that smart or witty in the past."
"Which one of us can say that we have not been young and frivolous before?" Jiang Yuning replied as she glared at the young paparazzo. "Can't I have my rebellious stage too?"
"To be honest, I think that this is actually a good thing. It is not a bad idea to let the public and the netizens know that you are a genuine person."
At this time, Jiang Yuning leaned against the back of the sofa as she sighed, "I feel so ashamed of myself now…"
Who asked her to be so rebellious and to resort to posting all sorts of comments online in the past?
Who asked her to act that way?
At that time, Jiang Yuning had just entered the entertainment industry and she had not learned how to be patient and control her own temper yet. Moreover, she was only twenty years old then. Wasn't it normal for girls that age to act in that manner?
Jiang Yuning secretly hoped that Lu Jingzhi would not see this…
It was so embarrassing!
However, since her account was exposed, this really helped dispel concerns that the fans of the book had about her playing the role of the first female lead in the drama <Yan Huasu>. Since Jiang Yuning had been actively chasing the novel in the past, she would definitely be more than familiar with the contents and the plot of <Yan Huasu>.
[I suddenly feel that Jiang Yuning is really very adorable. Hahaha. I can't wait to see what kind of character and personality she will bring when she plays the role of the first female lead.]
[Since she is a loyal fan of the novel, then I am certain that Jiang Yuning will definitely know what we are all hoping to see!]
[Since it is already confirmed that she has read the novel before, then I suddenly have some confidence in her!]
[Empress Jiang, please make sure that you perform well and will not let us down!]
Initially, Hou Da was already having a headache as she thought about how she could get the fans to accept Jiang Yuning. In the end, Jiang Yuning had accidentally exposed herself through commenting using her second account. However, this accident turned out to be a blessing in disguise! This actually contributed to the fans giving Jiang Yuning recognition and support to play the role of the first female lead. Was Jiang Yuning some kind of deity?
Hou Da could not help herself from sending a text message to Jiang Yuning at this time. "I heard that you threw shade at me and criticized me in the past?"
After reading Hou Da's message, Jiang Yuning quickly explained herself. "Well…I was just trying to urge you to write faster."
Hou Da then replied, "So, you sure one of those negative commenters? I want to change the first female lead!"
Jiang Yuning grimaced before she replied in a bitter and sad tone, "It's too late, Hou Da. The netizens and book fans already know about this matter now. Please give me a chance and accept me. If I do not perform well or if my acting is not up to your expectations, then you can replace me any time you want."
Hou Da: "You want my forgiveness? Then, tell me how many times you have read <Yan Huasu>?"
Jiang Yuning: "If you do not count the drama script that I had just read again two days ago, then I have already read your novel thrice."
Well, since Jiang Yuning was indeed her loyal fan, she would let her off the hook this time.


“I can’t do it anymore. Stop it…I can’t take it anymore!” The second young master stopped in his tracks and raised his brows as he stared at Miss Jiang. “All you had to do was jog, so—”
…
Everyone knew that Miss Jiang was an artiste who had been defamed and blacklisted before she became famous again. When she got into trouble, she did not give up but fought persistently. Everyone knew that the second young master was the mysterious head of the enterprise. He was an extremely cold person with an exquisite taste. Moreover, the second young master had recently adopted a new hobby. He took in his younger brother’s ex-fiancée and he was extremely fond of her…


On the colossal St. Ancestral Mountain range, sunlight shined through the gap between the mountains into the deep canyons. On the hillside beside the valley, some snow remained.

Even though it's already the early summer, the snow has yet to melt. The cold here is exceptionally long. The roars of beasts can occasionally be heard.

On the surface of the valley stood a magnificent city.

The world outside of the St. Ancestral Mountains has been occupied by the beasts. The people living in the mountain range have not contacted the outside world for hundreds of years.

The people who live in the city are unsure of the situation of the outside world. It's been recorded that at the most glorious period of mankind, having thousands of Legend rank Fighters and Demon Spiritualists, the humans established many empires in the vast continent, but those empires have been wiped out.

The city, due to being stealthily located geographically, was well preserved from the Age of Darkness. They would occasionally encounter attacks from powerful Snow Wind Beasts within the St. Ancestral Mountains, however, after going through numerous devastating conflicts, the city was be rebuilt again and again.

These motley walls were an indomitable monument.

This city is called Glory City, and it is a symbol of hope for humanity.

----Holy Orchid Institute, Fighter Apprentice class----

Over thirty students are sitting down and are awaiting to listen to the female teacher as she imparts her knowledge. The students are a bunch of Fighter Apprentices. They are Glory City's Holy Orchid Institute's students.

"I heard that the new teacher, Shen Xiu, is one of the Sacred Family's 3-star Silver rank Demon Spiritualists!"

A few students were discussing softly among themselves.

The attention of the students was focused on the teacher. She had a tall figure, was wearing a lavender dress that wrapped tightly against her body, giving an emphasis of her perky chest. She had a pair of slender, white legs, and wore exquisite make-up that made her look beautiful and elegant. Her eyes were full of pride and arrogance. The Sacred Family is one of the three Major families of Glory City. Because she is of noble birth, and a 3-star Silver rank Demon Spiritualist, she naturally has the capital to be prideful.

As a 3-star Silver rank Demon Spiritualist, she wouldn't normally come here to teach. She only agreed to because her nephew is in this class.

"Demon Spiritualists and Fighters have five different ranks, which are: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Black Gold and Legend rank. Each rank is then divided into five levels, from 1-star to 5-star.

"A Demon Spiritualist is above a Fighter. We are a truly noble existence. A Demon Spiritualist can form a soul realm within their dantian. They have the ability to integrate a captured demon into their soul realm and then merge with the demon in combat. This allows them to possess matchless strength, which is far above the strength Fighters could compete with." Shen Xiu raised her chin and spoke arrogantly, "Just like me, my demon is a Scarlet Flame Fox."

Suddenly, Shen Xiu's face and hands underwent drastic changes. Her facial shape became sharper, her teeth and nails also became sharper. Finally, a scarlet tail emerged from her back.

"After merging with a demon, I can control its strength as well as gain fire-type abilities. Among the demons, the Scarlet Flame Fox is a Gold rank beast. This means that the highest level I can reach is Gold rank Demon Spiritualist. Of course, after becoming a Gold rank Demon Spiritualist, I can replace it with a more powerful demon."

When it came to her cultivation, the pride on Shen Xiu's face became thicker.

Shen Xiu's words caused a group of students to be amazed. Gold rank Demon Spiritualists are existences beyond the reach for most of them.

As Shen Xiu continued lecturing on the stage, Nie Li was sitting in the back row. His mind was in a trance as his soul floated around.

After a while, Nie Li slowly opened his eyes. He couldn't help being confused by the scene in front of him.

"Where am I?" Nie Li quietly asked himself.

He was utterly shocked as he realised that his hands became smaller and his skin became a lot more tender.

Shen Xiu was on the stage, talking nonstop. Nie Li clearly remembered that this was the year he joined the institute. The teacher lecturing was a 3-star Silver rank Demon Spiritualist and was extremely arrogant. Because of her, Nie Li was unwilling to learn for quite sometime.

"I was actually reborn?" Nie Li was deeply shocked. He remembered being surrounded and attacked by the Sage Emperor and six Deity rank beasts and died in the battle. It seems his soul was reborn to the time when he was thirteen years old.

Nie Li looked towards the side, and saw familiar faces: Lu Piao and Du Ze. These brothers that had shared life and death with him are alive, except their appearances were very immature.

And her, Nie Li looked towards the left. A few meters away from him, a beautiful flawless face came into his field of vision. Her name is Ye Ziyun. Although her appearance is only thirteen-fourteen years old, she already looked slender and elegant with purple coloured hair pouring down to her waist. She had arched eyebrows, and an intelligent radiance was seen within her eyes. Whenever she smiled, she would have deep dimples.

Although she looked a little childish, Nie Li knows that, when she grows up a bit more, she will be extremely beautiful and enchanting. She wore a silk white dress that  gave her a kind of unspeakable elegance. In his previous life, Nie Li had a deep affection for her ever since he was a teen.

'She's not dead!'

Nie Li was extremely excited to the point that he almost choked.

"I actually went back in time, is this real? Not a dream?" Nie Li asked himself as he severely pinched himself. The clear pain told him that this wasn't a dream. Suddenly he thought of something.

"The Temporal Demon Spirit Book. It must've been the Temporal Demon Spirit Book!"

Nie Li lowered his head and immediately searched for it, but could not find the Temporal Demon Spirit Book.

Nie Li could not believe that his rebirth, this mysterious phenomenon that happened to him, was not related to the mysterious Temporal Demon Spirit Book!

That Temporal Demon Spirit Book's creator was not known. It's a highly mysterious book that Nie Li always kept with him. He clearly remembered, when he was fighting the Sage Emperor and the six Deity rank beasts, that his blood had thoroughly covered the book. It must have been the Temporal Demon Spirit Book that brought him back to when he was only thirteen.

After seeing all these familiar faces, Nie Li drifted into his distant memory.

He remembered when Glory City was under the assault of the Snow Wind beasts. Glory City's guardian, Lord Ye Mo, who was a Legend rank Demon Spiritualist, died in the battle with the beasts among hundreds of thousands of people. Only a few thousand survived and fled to the desert, east of the St. Ancestral Mountain range. During the escape, one survivor after another died in the desert. One day, they were surrounded by the beasts in the desert. Later that night, Nie Li and Ye Ziyun sought the comfort of each other's soul.

That night, Nie Li had finally embraced the goddess in his heart with his arms.

Under the night sky, the silver moonlight became a hazy veil. Ye Ziyun's exquisite physique, with her crystal clear skin that looked as though she was molded from a jade sculpture. They embraced each other with a mad passion.

If it wasn't for the destruction of Glory City, and for the dreadful escape, he could never have gotten the favor of Ye Ziyun. He had ridiculously low talent and was from a declining family.

After that night, they encountered another group of beasts and in order to protect him, Ye Ziyun died by the hands of one of the beasts. Nie Li could never forget that moment.

After he experienced the life threatening attacks, Nie Li survived and walked out of the Endless Desert.

Although his talent was low, his survival instincts allowed Nie Li to travel throughout the Divine Continent. He came across many people who were fighting the beasts. He also came across many mysterious things, and of course that Temporal Demon Spirit Book. If it wasn't for the book, Nie Li wouldn't have been able to come back.

That mysterious Temporal Demon Spirit Book, actually brought him back through time!

He was brought back to before Glory City's destruction. Before his parents, family and brothers death in the battle. Before Ye Ziyun's death in the escape.

"Since I'm back, the heavens have given me another chance. I will not let the destruction of Glory City happen again!" Nie Lie said under his breath, gritting his teeth. He firmly made his decision.

He vaguely remembers that he should have just enrolled into the institute this year and he should be thirteen years old. Nie Li wanted to laugh happily, 'I'm back, how nice!'

'Sage Emperor, the next time we meet, I'll slaughter you, and avenge my previous life!'

If it wasn't for the destruction of Glory City, him and Ye Ziyun would be from two different worlds. It wouldn't be possible for them to be together. Ye Ziyun was the daughter of Glory City's City Lord, not to mention that her grandfather is the Legend rank Demon Spiritualist Ye Mo. Nie Li was from a family who was powerless and was declining. Both of them, in the midst of escape, built up deep feelings for each other.

When Ye Ziyun entered the school, no one in class knew her identity. Nie Li only found out about her identity later.

Within Glory City, there are three Major families. The Divine Family, the Sacred Family, and the Snow Wind Family. They represented the supreme power of Glory City, the pinnacle of the noble families. The City Lord was usually chosen from one of these three families. After the three Major families were the seven Noble families and after them were the twelve Aristocratic families.

Nie Li belonged to the Heavenly Marks Family, which stood at last place of the Aristocratic families. Although they have a little status, there is an astronomical difference in status when compared to the three Major families and the seven Noble families.

With Nie Li's background, wanting to be with Ye Ziyun was simply impossible.

But, with a firmness that flashed across Nie Li's eyes, since he was reborn, is all this of still an issue? Although his foundation is currently poor, with the vast knowledge from his previous life, improving his talent isn't impossible.

"Nie Li, what are you smiling at?" Lu Piao asked,  looking puzzled at Nie Li. He was wondering if he has crazy, since he was giggling by himself for quite sometime and was even staring at Ye Ziyun with a lecherous look.

"Just being happy! I'm happy to see you, good brother!" Nie Li stated as he excitedly hugged Lu Piao. It's a habit from his previous life.

After being ridiculously hugged by Nie Li, Lu Piao muttered angrily, "Oi, Nie Li! Who's your good brother, you gaylord?! Quickly, release me!"

Lu Piao struggled. They've just started school not long ago. They were only acquainted for only a few days. They were not close enough for this level of intimacy.

Nie Li didn't loosen his hug. He looked at Lu Piao seriously and chuckled "No matter what you're thinking, in my heart, you're always my good brother!"

Naturally Nie Li couldn't tell Lu Piao the life and death adventures from his previous life.

Looking at Nie Li's gaze, Lu Piao was stunned and couldn't help saying, "Weirdo!"

However, no matter what, the words Nie Li said previously, made him feel moved.

Lu Piao looked at Nie Lie and said, "I know you're one of the nobility in Glory City, but let me warn you: Do not have any ideas for that girl. Her identity is extremely mysterious. I heard that when she joined the institute the principal personally arranged her dorm.

Nie Li slightly grinned, Lu Piao still doesn't know Ye Ziyun's identity which he already knew.

"She's my woman!" Nie Li declared, looking at the beautiful long haired girl not far away. His heart was exceptionally firm as he thought of that night's passion. Nie Li couldn't help feeling hot in his heart.

Nie Li suddenly remembered, he and Ye Ziyun are still only thirteen!

'Ziyun, when will you grow up to become that beautiful, enchanting woman? I shall protect you and we will grow up together!'

Not far away, Ye Ziyun felt something. She turned her head and looked towards Nie Li. She gently wrinkled her brows, and thought that Nie Li must be a playful noble. Since the start of class, he has been unrestrainedly looking at her. If he dares to provoke her, she'll not let him off easy.

Ye Ziyun didn't want to make use her status to make friends, but that doesn't mean that she'll submit to humiliation when being bullied.

....

???:” Ara Ara... looks like I finally get to reincarnate someone hmm....” ???:’ Wait I’ll be your first? Looks like I’ll be dying twice in one day great’ *sigh* ???:” How rude! Just for that I’ll send you to the world of [ Tales Of Demons And Gods]” ???:” Uhhh...?”

Noah stayed long enough to make the video, but as soon as the twins started to look around. We made our escape, heading to class. Noah replayed the video for our classmates as soon as we took our seats in the room. 
"You're crazy! I could never dye my brother's hair!"
"You should have made one purple."
"Is your mom going to be mad?"
"I can't see Zeke helping you."

At the mention of Zeke, Noah started to brag that most of these pranks were his ideas. Water balloons. Taking their clothes. Even the nail polish was his idea, but it was changed by Mrs. Atkins. 
"Your own mother helped you out?!" One of the guys scoffed. "Dang! What an evil little family!"

Noah grinned and nodded. "Yep. I'm lucky that my birthday is over the summer. I'll be pranked, but at least it won't be public." He paused. "Oh, but I might actually be gone during my birthday this year...so maybe I won't be pranked at all." He grinned. 
"Where are you going this summer?" Someone asked. 
"Zeke invited me and Jake to participate in the Stanford camp. He and the other Stanford players and coaches will be acting as counselors so it'll be a fun experience."

"Wow."
"That's pretty cool."
"I wish I had a brother like Zeke."

Some of them glanced my way, but didn't say anything. At least, not until, this one guy asked, "Jake, did you ask your brother about autographs yet?"

Surprised, I just stared at him. 
The guy made a face. "Did he really tell you no? Or do you not want to ask him?"

"He did ask him. Last night after dinner." Noah responded, defending me. He looked at me. "Do you want to tell them or should I?"

I shrugged again, not really interested in joining the group. 
"Jeremy said he would work on signing some baseball cards for Jake to take to Alisha's party. We'll pass them out there." Noah explained fully. 
Alisha, who had just walked in as the first bell rung, was surprised. "You're doing what at my party?"

"Passing our Jeremy's autographed cards." Noah grinned good-naturedly. "Don't worry, I'll bring you a separate gift entirely."

Alisha was really shocked now. "You will?"

Noah nodded. "Yep! Already got you something!"

Alisha glanced my way for a brief second before smiling at Noah. "Cool. Thanks."

"Should we bring gifts for you, Alisha?" A girl asked. "I thought you said not to."

"It's okay if you all don't." Alisha addressed the class. "I just want everyone to come and have a good time. Celebrate the end of our freshman year and my 15th birthday. That's all I really want." She beamed, seemingly in a great mood. 
Then it clicked. In my head. She likes Noah. Likes-like Noah. The weird look that Zeke gave me at the mall. Talking about dating with Jeremy last night. I had put it together. Why she wanted a gift from Noah specifically. I was stunned, but had no one to talk to. The second bell rung and our teacher had walked in, ordering everyone to sit down. 
Even after class, I couldn't talk to Noah about it. One, what if I'm wrong? I don't want to embarrass her. Two, what if I'm right? I don't want to embarrass her. I had a strong urge to go talk to Alisha about this, but that's kind of embarrassing too. Maybe I can ask Zeke for advice on what to do. 
In every class, a couple of kids would approach Noah and ask him about his brothers pink hair. He told everyone he could and even explained that Kyle must have left the soap in his hair longer than Dave. With their hair being two shades of pink, everyone could now tell the difference between the twins. 
At lunch, on our way to our usual table, Kaylee stopped us and handed over a small, wrapped, box. "For Kyle." She explained. 
Noah looked confused. "From Marie..?"

Kaylee nodded. 
"Is there a dead cockroach in here?" Noah light shook the box. 
She shook her head. "It's a real gift. My sister worked on it all weekend. It's a keychain made from the cover of a baseball."

Noah looked a little sad as he put the box away in his backpack. "You know...he was gone all weekend with my dad. He's been a jerk lately so they went for some alone time. He says he didn't like it. But tell Marie...he seems almost back to normal."

Kaylee nodded slowly. "Alright. I'll pass it along." She waved and went to her friends. 
We walked to our table in silence, both feeling a little bad for Marie. Dumped out of the blue, and she still made him a birthday gift. 
"If Kyle doesn't get back with Marie, then he must still be a jerk." Noah mumbled. "We'll have to ask him later."
I nodded along, wondering if I should mention the Alisha thing. Then I decided not to. I'll just wait for my opportunity with Zeke. 
We ate at our bench under the warm sun. Summer was here and we were finally starting to feel it. 
I thought life was going smoothly for me...until I saw the twins in math. I forgot that I had to sit with them. 
"Jake." Dave greeted warmly, with a gentle smile. 
"Come Jake, lets have a chat!" Kyle patted my seat with the same eager smile. 
My fight-or-flight response was sending me signals that it was time to run. But at the sound of the bell, all I could do was take a seat between the twins. 
Kyle tapped his nails against the desk, in a slightly disturbing way. Maybe because I've never seen such long fake nails on a guy before. It could also be the creepy smile. 
"Oh? I see you've noticed my nails." Kyle grinned. "Do you like them?"

I gulped. Was there a right or wrong answer? I stuck with silence. 
"Very, very creative 'gifts' today, Jake." Dave said from my other side, taking off his cap and revealing his pale pink hair. "Why don't you tell us how it was done?"

I shook my head slowly. 
Kyle tilted his head, resting his elbow on the table. It made his arm flex, and in a shirt that was a size too small, it made him look even more buff. "C'mon Jake. You've got to know...you were gone when we woke up after all."

"No, no, no hablo español." I stuttered. I cast my eyes down and focused on my math book. 
The twins laughed together, and in a non-creepy way. 
I peeked at Dave. 
He grinned, patting my head. "Not bad, Jake." 
"I think we'll be able to trust you to pull a prank on Noah while we're gone." Kyle stated. 
I shook my head. "No way!"

Kyle rested his hand on my shoulder. "It's the rules, Jake. You think Noah is going to let you off on your birthday?"

Uhhh. "He wouldn't...would he?"

"Think it over, Jake." Dave told me. "You've got time."

"But...we'll be at the Stanford camp. I don't think I can do anything." I told them. 
"Zeke will be there." Kyle pointed out. "No matter what, he'll get him somehow."

"Oh.." I hesitated. "I guess...then..."

"It's all in good fun." Dave laughed, sounding less scary. 
Kyle nodded in agreement. Then he leaned forward. "But really...please tell me this isn't permanent. I don't want to go bald."

I nodded. "It's supposed to wash out." He looked relieved, but I still had to tell him. "Yours might take longer though..."

Kyle made a face, looking distressed. 
"You've got three weeks before we leave on our first trip." Dave waved away his worries. 
"But what about Zeke's graduation photos..?" Kyle ran a hand through his hair. "I have to dye it back if it's not blonde again by next Thursday. There's no way I want to be remembered like this when Mom makes us take a million pictures next week."

"Yea, you could do that." Dave agreed. 
They spent the class talking about next week, hair dye, and whether there's a way to safely pull off Kyle's fake nails. They used their phones to look up at that last problem. I was left alone to take notes from the whiteboard since this week was mostly review for the final next week. I didn't mind. Hearing them talk like this made it really seem like Kyle was over missing the finals. He didn't hold a grudge against Dave and neither did Dave. They were back to being equals. 


Jake has it rough: a missing dad, an abusive mother and a hidden talent for baseball which sends his mother off the deep end. Sent to live with a foster family, his love for baseball is revived, and with their help, will Jake start to shine like the future superstar he is?

"Wei Jin! You are back!"

Entering the class, a young boy was quickly surrounded by a small group of girls.

"Where were you yesterday?"
"Did something happen?"
"We heard you were sick!"

A barrage of questions followed him to which he simply replied with a smile saying, "I am alright now…" The crowd parted and a beautiful girl dressed in an elegant black dress walked forward. Her emerald eyes staring at the man in front of him. Nobody said anything anymore as the duo walked up to their seat.

It was only now that Wei Jin noticed someone new in the classroom.

("Shen Yue?")

"Hey, Jin, Have you heard… we have a new teacher today. I heard that the new teacher, Shen Xiu, is one of the Sacred Family's 3-star Silver rank Demon Spiritualists!"

"Is that so?"

Suddenly, the room quieted down and the door opened. It was rare to see a demon spiritualist come teach in a mere 'fighter' apprentice class.

The attention of the students was focused on the teacher. She had a tall figure, was wearing a lavender dress that wrapped tightly against her body, giving an emphasis on her perky chest. She had a pair of slender, white legs, and wore exquisite make-up that made her look beautiful and elegant. Her eyes were full of pride and arrogance. The Sacred Family is one of the three Major families of Glory City. Because she is of noble birth, and a 3-star Silver rank Demon Spiritualist, she naturally has the capital to be prideful.

As a 3-star Silver rank Demon Spiritualist, she wouldn't normally come here to teach. She only agreed to do so because her nephew is in this class.

"Demon Spiritualists and Fighters have five different ranks, which are: Bronze, Silver, Gold, Black Gold, and Legend rank. Each rank is then divided into five levels, from 1-star to 5-star.

"A Demon Spiritualist is above a Fighter. We are a truly noble existence. A Demon Spiritualist can form a soul realm within their dantian. They have the ability to integrate a captured demon into their soul realm and then merge with the demon in combat. This allows them to possess matchless strength, which is far above the strength Fighters could compete with." Shen Xiu raised her chin and spoke arrogantly, "Just like me, my demon is a Scarlet Flame Fox."

Suddenly, Shen Xiu's face and hands underwent drastic changes. Her facial shape became sharper, her teeth and nails also became sharper. Finally, a scarlet tail emerged from her back.

"After merging with a demon, I can control its strength as well as gain fire-type abilities. Among the demons, the Scarlet Flame Fox is a Gold-rankest. This means that the highest level I can reach is Gold rank Demon Spiritualist. Of course, after becoming a Gold rank Demon Spiritualist, I can replace it with a more powerful demon."

When it came to her cultivation, the pride on Shen Xiu's face became thicker.

Shen Xiu's words caused a group of students to be amazed. Gold rank Demon Spiritualists are existences beyond the reach for most of them.

As Shen Xiu continued lecturing on the stage, Nie Li was sitting in the back row. His mind was in a trance as his soul floated around.

After a while, Nie Li slowly opened his eyes. He couldn't help being confused by the scene in front of him.

"Where am I?" Nie Li quietly asked himself.

He was utterly shocked as he realized that his hands became smaller and his skin became a lot more tender

Shen Xiu was on the stage, talking nonstop. Nie Li clearly remembered that this was the year he joined the institute. The teacher lecturing was a 3-star Silver rank Demon Spiritualist and was extremely arrogant. Because of her, Nie Li was unwilling to learn for quite some time
"I was actually reborn?" Nie Li was deeply shocked. He remembered being surrounded and attacked by the Sage Emperor and six Deity rank beasts and died in the battle. It seems his soul was reborn to the time when he was thirteen years old.

Nie Li looked towards the side and saw familiar faces: Lu Piao and Du Ze. These brothers that had shared life and death with him are alive, except their appearances were very immature.

And her, Nie Li looked towards the left. A few meters away from him, a beautiful flawless face came into his field of vision. Her name is Ye Ziyun. Although her appearance is only thirteen-fourteen years old, she already looked slender and elegant with purple-colored hair pouring down to her waist. She had arched eyebrows, and an intelligent radiance was seen within her eyes. Whenever she smiled, she would have deep dimples.

Although she looked a little childish, Nie Li knows that, when she grows up a bit more, she will be extremely beautiful and enchanting. She wore a silk white dress that gave her a kind of unspeakable elegance. In his previous life, Nie Li had a deep affection for her ever since he was a teen.

'She's not dead!'

Nie Li was extremely excited to the point that he almost choked.

"I actually went back in time, is this real? Not a dream?" Nie Li asked himself as he severely pinched himself. The clear pain told him that this wasn't a dream. Suddenly he thought of something.

"The Temporal Demon Spirit Book. It must've been the Temporal Demon Spirit Book!"

Nie Li lowered his head and immediately searched for it, but could not find the Temporal Demon Spirit Book.

Nie Li could not believe that his rebirth, this mysterious phenomenon that happened to him, was not related to the mysterious Temporal Demon Spirit Book!

That Temporal Demon Spirit Book's creator was not known. It's a highly mysterious book that Nie Li always kept with him. He clearly remembered, when he was fighting the Sage Emperor and the six Deity rank beasts, that his blood had thoroughly covered the book. It must have been the Temporal Demon Spirit Book that brought him back to when he was only thirteen.

After seeing all these familiar faces, Nie Li drifted into his distant memory.

He remembered when Glory City was under the assault of the Snow Wind beasts. Glory City's guardian, Lord Ye Mo, who was a Legend rank Demon Spiritualist, died in the battle with the beasts among hundreds of thousands of people. Only a few thousand survived and fled to the desert, east of the St. Ancestral Mountain range. During the escape, one survivor after another died in the desert. One day, they were surrounded by the beasts in the desert. Later that night, Nie Li and Ye Ziyun sought the comfort of each other's souls. That night, Nie Li had finally embraced the goddess in his heart with his arms.

Under the night sky, the silver moonlight became a hazy veil. Ye Ziyun's exquisite physique, with her crystal clear skin that looked as though she was molded from a jade sculpture. They embraced each other with a mad passion.

If it wasn't for the destruction of Glory City, and for the dreadful escape, he could never have gotten the favor of Ye Ziyun. He had ridiculously low talent and was from a declining family.

After that night, they encountered another group of beasts and in order to protect him, Ye Ziyun died by the hands of one of the beasts. Nie Li could never forget that moment.

After he experienced the life-threatening attacks, Nie Li survived and walked out of the Endless Desert.

Although his talent was low, his survival instincts allowed Nie Li to travel throughout the Divine Continent. He came across many people who were fighting the beasts. He also came across many mysterious things, and of course that Temporal Demon Spirit Book. If it wasn't for the book, Nie Li wouldn't have been able to come back.

That mysterious Temporal Demon Spirit Book actually brought him back through time!

He was brought back to before Glory City's destruction. Before his parents, family and brothers died in the battle. Before Ye Ziyun's death in the escape.

"Since I'm back, the heavens have given me another chance. I will not let the destruction of Glory City happen again!" Nie Lie said under his breath, gritting his teeth. He firmly made his decision.

He vaguely remembers that he should have just enrolled inches institute this year and he should be thirteen years old. Nie Li wanted to laugh happily, 'I'm back, how nice!'

'Sage Emperor, the next time we meet, I'll slaughter you, and avenge my previous life!'

If it wasn't for the destruction of Glory City, he and Ye Ziyun would be from two different worlds. It wouldn't be possible for them to be together. Ye Ziyun was the daughter of Glory City's City Lord, not to mention that her grandfather is the Legend rank Demon Spiritualist Ye Mo. Nie Li was from a family who was powerless and was declining. Both of them, in the midst of escape, built up deep feelings for each other.

When Ye Ziyun entered the school, no one in the class knew her identity. Nie Li only found out about her identity later.

Within Glory City, there are three Major families. The Divine Family, the Sacred Family, and the Snow Wind Family. They represented the supreme power of Glory City, the pinnacle of the noble families. The City Lord was usually chosen from one of these three families. After the three Major families were the seven Noble families and after they're the twelve Aristocratic families.

Nie Li belonged to the Heavenly Marks Family, which stood at last place of the Aristocratic families. Although they have a little status, there is an astronomical difference in status when compared to the three Major families and the seven Noble families.

With Nie Li's background, wanting to be with Ye Ziyun was simply impossible.

But, with a firmness that flashed across Nie Li's eyes, since he was reborn, is all this of still an issue? Although his foundation is currently poor, with the vast knowledge from his previous life, improving his talent isn't impossible.

"Nie Li, what are you smiling at?" Lu Piao asked, looking puzzled at Nie Li. He was wondering if he has crazy, since he was giggling by himself for quite some time was even staring at Ye Ziyun with a lecherous look.

"Just being happy! I'm happy to see you, good brother!" Nie Li stated as he excitedly hugged Lu Piao. It's a habit from his previous life.

After being ridiculously hugged by Nie Li, Lu Piao muttered angrily, "Oi, Nie Li! Who's your good brother, you Gaylord Quickly, release me!"

Lu Piao struggled. They've just started school not long ago. They were only acquainted for only a few days. They were not close enough for this level of intimacy.

Nie Li didn't loosen his hug. He looked at Lu Piao seriously and chuckled "No matter what you're thinking, in my heart, you're always my good brother!"

Naturally, Nie Li couldn't tell Lu Piao the life and death adventures from his previous life.

Looking at Nie Li's gaze, Lu Piao was stunned and couldn't help saying, "Weirdo!"

However, no matter what, the words Nie Li said previously, made him feel moved.

Lu Piao looked at Nie Lie and said, "I know you're one of the nobility in Glory City, but let me warn you: Do not have any ideas for that girl. Her identity is extremely mysterious. I heard that when she joined the institute the principal personally arranged her dorm.

Nie Li slightly grinned, Lu Piao still doesn't know Ye Ziyun's identity which he already knew.

"She's my woman!" Nie Li declared, looking at the beautiful long-haired girl not far away. His heart was exceptionally firm as he thought of that night's passion. Nie Li couldn't help feeling hot in his heart.

Nie Li suddenly remembered he and Ye Ziyun are still only thirteen!

'Ziyun, when will you grow up to become that beautiful, enchanting woman? I shall protect you and we will grow up together!'

But…

Like all good things, his delusional dreams suddenly came crashing down. His beloved was looking intently at a young boy sitting in the middle of the middle row, at the very heart of the class.

Short wavy black hair and sharp jaw gave him a serious masculine feel. His bulging muscles tore through the frail fabric around his arms, barely containing the monster within. His amber eyes were vibrant and full of life. He was like a god amongst men, a shining sun.

Looking around, Nei Li noticed that Ziyun wasn't the only one looking at him. Almost every girl occasionally stole a glance at him and his raging muscles. Hell, even the woman giving lectures occasionally dropped a glance or two.

Thankfully for Nei Li, he wasn't the only confused or jealous in the room.
