Mysterious Chamber, Tower of Nyx, Noxville, Netheria
Keith was sitting cross-legged with elbows digging into his thighs and his hands supporting his chin. His eyes were focused on the beautiful girl who was sitting in front of him, wearing a gorgeous black gothic dress.
She was focusing hard on moulding the orb of Darkness that was hovering over her le...
"What was his name?"
"Damien Eisenhardt," Avriel replied to him with a smile, no longer upholding her princess-like persona as she sat on the couch cross-legged, happily running her fingers through the black cub's fur.
"But he never gave you his name." Keith smiled back at her, and Avriel embarrassedly lowered her head.
"I read his mind." She meekly said. "And he has had...
"Good night." He planted a kiss on her head, and Amelia closed her eyes, giving in to his comforting caresses.
There was a sweet smile on her face. content at finally getting a chance to sleep with him alone at night. She had terribly missed his warmth and the touch of his skin, and now, after a fervent love-making session, that lasted for nearly the entire night, she blissfully drifted...
"Begin!"
Celine's voice came from far away, but neither Keith nor Venessa rushed forward.
The two of them kept taking a good look at each other, and Venessa suddenly smiled before shrouding her body in a crimson flame.
"Let me see how strong you are." She proactively said, making her intentions clear, and Keith could not help but shake his head and sigh.
She was ...
It was Valentine's Day, two days after his official wedding to his golden bride, and a day after his birthday.
In the last two days, the family had been drawing in a festive atmosphere, and last night, everyone had stayed up dancing and singing to their heart's content.
There were no particular plans for the day, but to the surprise of him and Venessa, the girls announced their ...
"One of the most important things that decide the outcome of a battle is how efficiently you can use your Aura." Keith looked at the girls and seriously said. "Everyone has limited Aura and Mana Reserves, and your body can not go on forever too. Therefore, you must learn how to utilise it in the best way and avoid any wastage. Watch..." He said as he pointed to the three cubes of steel alloys h...
2022-10-19 07:55:15 +0000 UTC View Post"You did well," Keith spoke after he went through the files and listened to Caesar and Sebastian's accounts of the past few months.
He had left the matters of Business in the hands of Amelia, and the other more discreet matters in the hands of Rebecca.
Everything was going well, and Rebecca had managed to dismantle the Falken Family, who were now without any heirs. The old man of...
There was a very strange atmosphere in the house when Keith arrived. He was expecting the girls to express their excitement and happiness at having him back, but the greetings he received from them seemed rather restrained.
It was so obvious that something had happened, and the absence of Amelia, Rebecca, and Qingyue made him presume that it had something to do with the three of them.
Nock. Draw. Loose.
A swerving and dipping arrow, whose tip briefly glowed in a green sheen, embedded itself right into the bullseye that stood an impressive 200 meters away.
It was only a couple of seconds later that another arrow joined it there, kissing its tip, and another couple of seconds later, a third arrow pierced right between them.
Qingyue put the bow down, and a...

Demiliore Manor, Sameran City, Agnolia, Netheria
The rays of the rising sun peered through the windows and the lady in the big round bed opened her emerald eyes right at the moment the clock hit 6 am.
She sat up on the bed in a meditating position, and after circulating her Aura throughout her body, she took a deep breath before getting out of bed a...
{Ding! Congratulations Host on completing Main Quest 2! Kylian Dusk, the Child of Destiny, has been killed.}
{You have devoured 1930 Fate Points, received 1000 System Experience, and 1000 System Points.}
{The Final Reward of the Quest has been generated and sent to System Inventory.}
Keith went through the pending notifications in his mind and then looked at his own details.

Life is unfair.
Everyone knows it and tells it, but they only ever truly understand it when they experience this unfairness themselves. And the truth was that life was more unfair to some than the rest. But then again, life is unfair.
Kylian walked down the forest woods, keeping his head low, holding back the tears that threatened to brim out of his vacant, yet attentive blue ey...
A sharp clang sounded out when the two blades collided, and Yingying was surprised that Kylian managed to block her move,
She knew she was fast, very fast even for someone on the Spirit Profound Realm, and thus it was only given that she was taken aback when a person who was in the True Profound Realm managed to read through her move and block it.
"Don't drop your guard. He migh...
"You seem happy today, Master." Minami smiled as she helped him dry his hair after he came out of the shower.
"Am I not always happy?" He chuckled at her words and met her eyes in the mirror.
Those dark eyes of hers did not shy away even though her fair cheeks had started blooming in a blush.
"You are, Master. But you seemed a lot happier this morning than you have been ...
A day of seclusion was all it took him to finally step into the True Profound Realm. But as he opened his blue eyes, there was no joy in them. There was just determination and sorrow, which stemmed from his envy and weakness.
Taking a deep breath, Kylian stood up and stretched his limbs, and as he looked around, he found the maid he had accepted as his bedwarmer setting up the table wit...
Her blue eyes fluttered open and she shot up on the couch, looking around in panic before lowering her head to make sure that she was still dressed.
She was. It was just that she was in another girl's Pyjamas, and fear started whispering in her ears.
Gina stood up and held her breath as she took a few steps, searching for the pain to kick in her lower body, but to her immense re...
A slim and slender girl around the age of sixteen walked down the cobbled path that led to a cottage right next to a beautiful lake.
She was wearing her favourite green today, and her heart was a little restless for she was about to see the man, whom the Sect Master had spoken so great of last night.
Her beautiful wavy brown hair was ruffled back when a gust of wind passed by her...
After waiting for nearly half an hour, Kylian finally raised his head again, watching Keith coming out of his mother's cottage.
He briefly glanced at his mother, and he was relieved in his heart that she was no longer in pain and danger. But he still could not feel the happiness about it.
"The patient is fast asleep and won't wake up for the next twelve hours. In addition to the ...
Hundreds of Miles away, somewhere deep inside the Hawkstone Valleys on mainland Netheria, a massive compound was present at a private property, built to stay hidden from the eyes of people.
Inside that compound was life. Hundreds of children and young adults were out in the front yard at 4 am, and their voices as they sharply exhaled their breath after every move they performed, travell...
Kylian frowned as he was put into the same cell again where he had been thrown in a few times in the last week.
The first time he came here was when he mistakenly jeopardised an undercover Operation of the Police by trying to save a Police Officer who was seemingly being kidnapped.
The second time he was put here again was on the very next day, a few hours after he had got his b...
"What do you think about Emiko?"
"What about her?" Keith asked as he kept his eyes on his phone, going through some work-related documents.
"She's beautiful." Celine playfully suggested.
"She is." He admitted.
"And?"
He lightly smiled and glanced at her before looking back at his phone.
"I am not interested." He simply said, piquing Celine's curio...
"Mr. Kylian. Your private life is none of our concern, but sleeping around with your patients and seducing the nurses of the hospital can not be tolerated." Dean Graham said as he looked at the young doctor under his team with disappointment. "And today, you insulted your colleagues."
"I did not insult them. I just taught them that they had no right to boast about the skills they don't ...
"I am sorry I made you late for the event." She feigned some worry when they finally drove off to the Octavia Hospital, which was only 10 minutes away from their new house.
But it was well past 9 pm now, and though he had missed a good show, which he knew was bound to take place tonight, he was not disappointed about it.
Keith glanced at the reason he got late for the event, and ...

Celine's Nest, Arkton City, Sylvana, Netheria
"Do you like the place?" Keith knowingly asked as he looked at the grey-eyed lady appreciating the sea view from the porch of the Villa he had recently bought in Arkton City.
"I love it, Keith!" Celine happily smiled and tip-toed to plant a kiss on his cheek, but before she could escape, he grabbed her wa...
Keith woke up late in the afternoon with a very light head and smiled when he found his bride fast asleep right next to him.
He stayed in bed, sitting up against the headrest, and then gently set the strands of her hair behind her ear, allowing him to look at her beautiful profile and appreciate it.
His mind inadvertently entered his mindscape where he found the System Interface...
"I don't want it." She adamantly shook her head, holding her tears back.
Qingyue had understood that her Powers could accidentally kill someone she cares about. And the mere thought of it suffocated her.
"Sshhh!" Keith hugged her trembling body and pulled her in his arms, squeezing her against his chest.
"I don't want to harm anyone..."
He heard her whisper and s...

Demiliore Manor, Sameran City, Netheria
The sky turned and the clouds weeded, blessing the land underneath them with the rain.
Even though the weather was not pleasant enough to hold weddings, it was not something that was going to stop the house that was brimming with joy.
Everyone was smiling, laughing, chatting, and looking their bes...
Wandering down the hallways of the Demiliore Castle, with the pale moonlight peering through the glassed windows, Keith played with a tune in his mind, perfecting it and giving it a soul.
It was late in the night, probably past 2 a.m., and everyone who was here in the castle with him was probably asleep by now.
Since he had his wedding with Qingyue a few days later, he could no ...

Demiliore Castle, Noxville, Sameran City, Netheria
Keith silently waited outside the toom that belonged to Qingyue, and right next to him was his blonde wife, who was leading against the wall with her arms folded against her chest.
Both of them were silent as they waited for something, and what they were waiting for was Celine, who had gone insid...

Hell's Fort, Purgatory Island, Atlantic Ocean
Inside a dark hall room sat a man in his black throne of thorns, and in his hands was a scroll that had just been delivered to him by a messenger of Hermes.
His dark eyes went through everything mentioned in the letter, and soon a sinking feeling engulf his heart that had slowed down.
The seven ...
