Resumen

The Middle Kingdom, being bestowed with great blessings from the heavens, lived in peace and harmony of hundreds of years now. But as humans failed to recognize this blessing, forgetting to take care of their fellow man, and indulging in pleasures, concerning only themselves with wealth and power, the whole kingdom is now in chaos. The reigning King Liu Wei, believes only with the power of man to rule the kingdom, decreed to destroy all temples throughout the kingdom. Kill all seers for spreading false prophesies to instill fear to the people and ban all practices of worshipping the gods. Little civil wars are happening throughout the kingdom while neighboring kingdoms are trying to invade small cities along the kingdom's border in the north. The court is in disarray because of officials who either want to keep their positions or wants to go up in authority and power. It's the fifth of the 7th month in the year 877, King Liu Wei sits on his throne while listening to the arguments of his ministries. It's been going on for four hours now but there has been no sound resolution yet. When, suddenly, the door of the great hall opened. Everyone fell silent and looked at the door. The king who slowly looked at the door suddenly gets angry to see a young woman, wearing a flowing black robe entered the great hall. She is looking straight at the man in the center of the throne as if there is only the two of them in that room. All eyes are on her. She walked calmly as if she is just strolling the garden in bright moonlight. "How dare you enter!" all eyes looked at his majesty as he spoke those angry words. Everyone is looking at his majesty and then to the woman who just entered. The woman, with no slightest emotion on her face, stopped a few meters away from him. Eyes locked onto him. "How dare you ignore the wrath of the gods who gave you and your descendants the power to rule this kingdom. How dare you take credit on the achievements that the gods aided you. Now listen, all of you! The gods will not be blind and tolerate such ingrate! Someone from the heavens will go down and destroy this kingdom and build a new one." Silence. "And all of you…" she looked in everyone present in the court. "All of you who choose to please a mere human to save your little lives will know the gravity of your sins. You and your children will know the intensity of the wrath of the gods you are trying to ignore all these years…" A sharp arrow fierce through her delicate body. With bloodshot eyes, she looked at the king again, who is now holding a bow. "You, you will no longer produce an heir to the throne and…." Another arrow shot through her heart is released from the same bow that fired the first one. "I don't care about your nonsense. If what you say is true, then, tell your gods that they are welcome to come here and they will know who they are dealing with. Now, go to hell." Three arrows simultaneously hit her body and she fell on the ground eyes wild open. After a few seconds, panic arose in the court. The things they saw brought chills on their spines. Confusion, fear, and anxiety filled the entire court. "Quiet!!!" Everyone fell silent and looked at the man in front of them. "Whoever dared to believe that wretch woman will be put to death and be branded as traitors!" Whoever witnesses that incident will later on regret the decision they made.

The professional delusionist

A long time ago, in a far away land of the memories, existed a hero and a writer. The writer loved the hero unconditionally and the hero loved the writer not knowing what kind of existence she was. Not realizing after all the unconditional love, he was just a character in her text. Do you ever wonder when reading those stories of people of earth being reincarnated into a novel they read, what if that was really possible? That it was real? That you could go into your favorite writing? Be with your favorite person? Save that one character you love so much or drive the character you hate to their demise? Strictly speaking, many may say you’re delusional because they simply don’t believe you. Humans are like that, they want to witness it themselves but even if they do they convince them that they’re being delusional and something out of the logic they know cannot exist. Well, nowadays everyone believes in science so they seek evidence for your claims. Before was no different either but rather than asking for evidence, they’d simply label you as a person of witchcraft for believing in the unknown and be placed in a stake to be judged. “I guess humans have evolved in that sense,” whatever you want to make out of this comment, I’ll leave it up to you. Personally, I don’t believe things until I see it but I like being delusional about these stories. It lets me be free, to live different lives, in different worlds, to be different creations and to be a different me. I mean, I can be a villain, hero, healer, detective, chef, architect, archeologist, actor, actress and peacock. I like peacocks since they're pretty. Anyways, you all get my point right? I like being delusional to escape reality. Just like how others use television for entertainment, I use my delusion as one. But don’t worry, I’m not ill as I’m aware of my own delusions. I do know when to stop. So, the conclusion is that the protagonist of this novel is also a delusionist. A professional one at that. I mean, Kyra is a writer after all…

The Empress Foretold

Yue was an orphan that climbed into success by investing into stocks. She was a woman that showed little to none of her emotions, which was the reason why she was killed by her adopted son because of bullying and misunderstanding. Now, as she opened her eyes, her life has turned topsy-turvy as she was transmigrated into the world where she was the Crown Princess of the Imperial Family of the Empire of En- En Yue. In this world where dragons and demons exist, she must find a way to cure herself of the Poison of Dammia in her bloodstream that was forced back by her strong Qi of Healing. Everything was doing great for her until she met the man who can kill just as fast as she could heal, The Eldest Prince and General of the Empire of Xu. UPDATE ONCE A DAY UNTIL "The Famous Painter is the CEO's Wife" is finished. -------- "You look too beautiful," complained Yue. Her brothers had hands on the hilt of their swords as they growled protectively. "You look too beautiful yourself." The Eldest Prince of Xu leaned his head back and commented with his eyes never leaving her and ignoring the look of disgust thrown his way by her older brothers. The Eldest Prince of Xu continued, "Why don't you accept my marriage proposal so we can both make more beautiful children." Yue looked up as she clicked her tongue, "If you vow with your Qi that I will be your only woman, I will." Everyone was shocked to hear the usual silent En Yue speak so brazenly. Yue look at her father with a smirk. She would not allow herself to be married just because her family had planned for her to do so. Nobody in the right mind would vow using their Qi because failure to comply would mean immediate death. "I, Xu Mingyu, vow to have only one woman to call my wife and to share my bed, and that is En Yue. I vow not to take any consort or any other princess aside from En Yue." Horrified, En Yue had her jaw dropped as she watched his dark black Qi intermingling with her white Qi and tying it together in a knot more powerful than marriage. The GAEA Trilogy 1.)
