A synopsis shall be uploaded after I gather my thoughts ..so after I upload 20 chapters..

This book is inspired be the V.C. Andrews Gothic Horror/Romance Novels.

There was a moment of silence between the two women. Sweat rolled down the blacksmith's forehead. Witnessing the high tension between the two females made him feel uneasy. The blacksmith didn't know if to interfere. To him, it felt like he was deactivating a time bomb, but didn't know which of the cables to cut.
The man cleared his throat. With the little courage he could muster, he got up and took a few steps towards the gothic lady, [William: Hey, let's calm—]
[Sylvia: —Do not interfere, blacksmith.] said the gothic lady without even looking at him. She kept her eyes only on the woman of the forest.
The blacksmith's eyes opened wide. He whispered under his breath, [William: How did you—?]
Know I was a blacksmith? was going to be the man's question, but then he remembered that mostly everyone he meets knows him. He's a Jaeger after all, like it or not. He's the type of man who doesn't need introductions.
The gothic lady ignored the man and crossed her arms, [Sylvia: I was going to the village when I stumbled upon this mess. It's always the same with you.] She put her index finger on her cheek in thought, [Sylvia: 'Actions speak better than words' is the saying, I believe?]
The woman of the forest scoffed, [Olivia: You think you can just walk in here whenever you please?]
The gothic lady cocked her head, [Sylvia: Oh?] She chuckled at the woman while covering her mouth with one of her hands, [Sylvia: I don't need permission, I do as I please.]
The woman gritted her teeth in anger towards the gothic lady, [Olivia: Why you—!]
The woman jumped towards the gothic lady, ready to fight with her fists. Not only did the marks of her body shone, but if you looked at her eyes one could notice that her pupils were gone. It had turned completely white. The strands of her black hair one by one slowly started to do the same.
[Sylvia: You rely too much on the dragon. One day, it'll be the death of you.]
Such thing was to be expected. Her power was a give and take situation. If she wanted more strength she needed to give up something temporary. Her tattoos, her hair color or her eyesight. Nothing was worthless in the eyes of the great dragon.
Her being temporary blind didn't stop the woman of the forest. She was trained since a child on how to properly use her power. Her fists kept hitting the barrier. Each hit was more powerful than the previous one. It caused the barrier to slightly crack.
A sudden flow of air enveloped the blacksmith. [William: What the?!] he yelled startled.
The gothic lady not looking at the man's direction said, [Sylvia: I will need you to step aside blacksmith. This is going to get messy.]
She took down the barrier and the blacksmith was sent flying. He landed near one of the trees in the corners of the plain field.
Once the Olivia's punch went through the barrier, the gothic lady jumped to the air to dodge it. The punch had such strength that it released a strong gust of wind, enough to leave a big crack at the ground's surface. The gothic lady in midair sent light beams directly towards the woman of the forest. She didn't have enough time to dodge it. It left Olivia with cuts all over her body.
The woman of the forest still kept going, unbothered of her injuries. At tremendous speed, she caught up with the gothic lady in mid air and kicked her torso to the ground.
The gothic lady lands roughly on her back at the ground and gasped for air. She stood up and, in a matter of seconds, materialized out of nothing what appeared to be a lance.
The blacksmith's eyes widened, [William: What the hell?! She made a lance out of... Nothing?!]
Olivia jumped back to gain some distance,
[Olivia: So, this is your power...]
The gothic lady chuckled, [Sylvia: This ain't even the half of it. So, why don't I give you a demonstration?]
She swung the lance around and pointed it at Olivia.
[Sylvia: —Although, as much as I would like to be here all night chatting with you, I have to talk to Mr. Gonzo. So, I hope we can end this quickly.]
[Olivia: Why would I ever let you meet him?!] The woman of the forest rushed towards the gothic lady and Sylvia did the same.
In the moment they were about to impact, the gothic lady used her lance as a vault pole to jump and avoid Olivia. Landing behind her she quickly used her lance to make the woman of the forest trip and fall on the grass.
The gothic lady pointed the tip of her lance to Olivia's throat. [Sylvia: The day that was written in stone is approaching. So, I must speak to Gonzo as soon as possible.]
Olivia opened her eyes wide and gritted her teeth, [Olivia: You can't possibly mean... It can't be! That's preposterous, It's not suppose to happen for the next hundred years!]
[Sylvia: It was as you suspected, but things have changed. I must speak to Gonzo immediately.
The woman of the forest's tattoos stopped glowing. Her hair returned to its usual black color and her gray pupils appeared again after one blink. One would asume that she understood the grave matter of the situation and gave up on her assault.
The gothic lady sighed. She let go of her lance and it vanished in midair, [Sylvia: Now, I best leave to it then.]
The blacksmith was at a loss of words. These two woman managed to make such a mess at the landscape leaving craters and fallen trees around them. [William: These woman are terrifying.] he murmured under his breath.
The gothic lady turned to the blacksmith, [Sylvia: I'll see to it that she provides you assistance. It was nice to see you again... Mr. Blacksmith.]
The gothic lady walked passed the woman of the forest who laid on the ground exhausted, [Olivia: You don't have any authority to make me help him.]
Sylvia covered her mouth as she chuckled, [Sylvia: Oh, but you will.] she put her hands on her hips, [Sylvia: Stop giving him tough love. It obvious that you care for him.]
The woman of the forest looked away. Her cheeks slightly turning red, [Olivia: What makes you say that.]
The gothic lady smiled, [Sylvia: That first attack you did before I arrived... You were going to miss it on purpose, am I wrong?]
Olivia clicked her tongue annoyed at how easily she was read by her opponent.
Sylvia smirked, [Sylvia: I'll see you at the village.]
These exchanged words were too far away for William to overhear.

William has been well known for being a gifted blacksmith because of his family name, but due to a tragic past he's left it all behind in pursue of different jobs. Seeing how every last option brought him dissatisfaction, he decided to move back into the village of Aoba. In the village, he meets new people and his life begins to change with the encounter of a red hair girl.

"Transformation 5: human." I said and a white flashed on the beautiful fan and a pretty gothic loli appeared.


"Ahh hello! I like the knives form better dad the fan is to soft but when you laughed it was better!" Roxy said as she giggled then she yawned and sleepily said "Dad i'm tired."


"Oh did you use too much energy transforming sorry i won't change them quick from now on, transformation 1." Then the small red birdy flew to my shoulder and drifted to sleep.


"Hahh! Today was so boring i didn't get to do anything!" I pout and go inside my room and fall asleep as my face hit the pillow. Well not before i grinned of course because the game hasen't really begun yet, has it?


-Two weeks later-


I have been in my room for the past two weeks hearing screames, while not getting even a single kill in! Ahh I am going crazy!


"BEEEEPPP! Students the cards have been hidden! Enjoy the KINGS GAME!"


I very indifferent but deep voice sounded over the loud speakers. After that announcment, everything was chaos!


I am a cheater! I just wrote in my book where the cards are hidden sooo i know where everyone of the cards are hidden even the king card. I will give people three days to find it before i get it myself.


-1-

"BEEEEPPP! Students the queen has been found by Silvia ####"

"BEEEEPPP! Students the ### cards have been found by ### and ###"


I can't hear the names i am to lazy!!!


-3-

Crickets… Ill wait until 11:59 if no one finds it, its mine…


-11:59-

Nothing!? Really? It is so easy! Its in my room! Kidding kidding!! *Ding dong dinggg donnnggg diiinnnnggg doooonnggg diiiinnnggg dooonnnggg* Oh its twelve, i will go get it now.


"I gave you people three days! You had three days to find this card which is totaly IN PLAIN SIGHTS!!" I scream at nobody in particular, "Not even god answers me." Invisible tears are going down my cheeks.


I swear to bejesus if god answers me i will shat my pants! So please don't answer me.


"Host who are you talking to?" Roxy said which made me screech.


"God is that you!?" I asked in surprise trying to keep my shat in meh behind but instead a few tails poped out.


"Host… ahahaahaha! What the heck man! You just pooped out your tails!" She laughed like a freaking hyena.


"That is not funny! Oh you scared me!! I thought you were god!" I whisper the last bit so god couldn't hear me.


"Umm excuse me?" A voice said from behind me.


"AHHH! ITS GOD!" I screamed then hid behind the gothic loli who is still laughing like a hyena but it got worse when i screamed.


"S-stop it! Make god leave do it do it!" I beg the gothic loli who is still laughing hystaricaly, it wasn't even that funny!


"I am not god, I am Seth. Do y-you know where Cameron is?" He asked with a shaky voice.


"Hmm, no but you should go back you nor cameron are going to die anyways." I said getting back my calm face.


"How do y-you know that?" He said getting a little angry.


"Is he 100 yet?" I asked, annoyed.


"Uh no?" He asked.


"then he will not die, i am leaving now! Never scare me again i thought you were god!" I said then Roxy started cackling again, "Stop laughing or ill shape you into a fan." She shut up.


Thank you.


I hold her hand becuase why not and this time she didn't struggle and let me do it! Her hand is so soft!


"To the mess hall!" I say while… going to the mess hall.


I am very bad at communication! Ahh God please forgive me! Stop making people scare the tails out of me!


"Have you seen seth?" Another voice sounded. You know in movies those fat kids whoes screams are not even his but sounds like a girls high pitch getting rapped scream, yeaaahh I did that.


"Hahahahaha! There goes more of your tails! H-hahahaha! You sounded like a g-girl getting rapped!" Roxy laughed but then grimaced holding her side because she laughed to much.


"I. Will. Turn. You. Into. A. Fan." I say but i hide behind her looking at the person who asked the question who is also holding in a laugh. "He just asked me where you were i told him you or him would never die and then i told him to go back to his room NOW STOP SCARING ME INTO MY TAILS COMING OUT!" I yelled then left to go into the mess hall.


"Roxy your dad is very scared, hide me!" I said hiding behind her. "UwuTuTwwu already five tails are out!" I whine.


"God hates me." I sniffle and think i heard a  "yeah i do" uuuwwwuuu!


When we get close to the mess hall we hear fighting happening so we watched for a while.


It was the lion and another guy fighting and so much blood! Wow! How are they not dead? Oh yeah they are not humans!


It seems the lion is winning oh and this is a fight to the death! This other guy might not be a newbie then.


The boy got kicked in the stomach a few hundred times by the lion and is getting the breath taken out of him. He tried to get up but the lion kicked him in the face it drew blood and the boy went flying to the other side of the mess hall and fell limp.


Is he dead? I think he is dead… wow they die like normal people i would have thought that they die in a weird way or in their beast form… wait never mind i forgot this is my book and i am bad at details. 


I use the computer program and change how they die; they burst into ash!


Once i clicked enter, the boy who fell limp suddenly burst into ash.


I will also add because why not that I can survive off of that ash like i said why not!? I am a very bored person!!!! And i like to shake things up.


I like mc's op but not that op, and since i am a mc in my own book then i can add myself with op but not that op stuff! 


"Oki! Now shall we go get it gothic loli?" I asked then i got a slap in the face which people looked over.


"Ow! Why do you keep slapping me in the face!? I just asked if you want to get it! OOOhhhh, I like that name thank you very much!" I said. fine ill only say gothic loli in my head. Humph.


"Humph! Lets hurry then leave gothic haha- i mean *cough* gothic god screamer! I like that one." She laughs but covers her mouth so she doesn't get turned into a fan.


Now people are staring!! 


"Meh, lets put on a show shall we?" I ask and put out my hand and she gladly takes it.


I walk up into the kitchen and people are staring weirdly at us as if saying "All the food is gone why are you in there?" 


I open a fridge with a metal cup in it then take the king card out of it.


"BEEEEPPP! Students the king card has been found by- unknown unknown- The game is now over! Have a good rest of the year students." 


Then the voice crashed...Oops?


The people who were looking at us confusingly widens their eyes in realization and shock.


I take the gothic loli's hand and walk out of the kitchen area with the card in my pocket. More shocked faces look at us as we go out of the kitchen.


as we were about to leave the mess hall i grin and bow down, "Pardon the intrusion. We will take our leave, OH! Yeah ill be needing this!." I let go of gothic lolis hand and bend down near the ash and get all of it into a bottle. "Now bye bye!"


And after that we ran out hand in hand.

this will stay up, but it is on a long hitius

There weren’t many pedestrians on Skyfire Avenue, because this was a place where one had to be qualified to be here. It wasn’t just a matter of money. It was also a matter of taste.

Only after one passed through seventeen linked evaluations would one receive the Skyfire Badge. But of course, it would cost money as well. The reason was: ‘Skyfire Avenue Public Maintenance Fund’.

Lan Jue walked out of Zeus, his face returning to its normal, faint smile. The events in the shop apparently hadn’t impacted him at all.

He walked to the opposite side of Skyfire Avenue. There was an ancient, French-style gothic building there.

Tall, sharp towers, arched doorways, stained glass windows depicting stories from the Holy Bible, gothic arches, flying buttresses, slender columns…they produced a light yet lofty sensation, as though one was flying in the sky. The framework provided the entire structure with abundant support and strength, with the directly rising lines contributing to a grandiose and spacious appearance.

Compared to Lan Jue’s Zeus Jewelry Store, this Gothic structure was like a leviathan. In the entire Skyfire Avenue, in fact, it was the most arresting sight.

Pushing open the door and going inside, Lan Jue rubbed some of the stubble on his face. He couldn’t help but let out a hint of a bitter smile. He was about to be criticized again by that strict fellow.

“Jewel Master, you came.” A tall, slender, beautiful young lady, with long golden hair, dressed in an ancient French full-length court dress, came to welcome him. She gave Lan Jue an absolutely proper French curtsey.

Lan Jue nodded at her slightly. “Eva [Yi’wa], hello. Is the Wine Master here yet?”

Eva smiled slightly, displaying those eight pearly white teeth. “He’s here. The Gourmet and the Coffee Master are here as well.”

“Oh?” A hint of surprised delight flashed past Lan Jue’s eyes. “The Gourmet is here as well? That’s wonderful.”

Eva smiled. “I’ll bring you there.”

A luxurious, long French palace table that could easily seat twenty for dinner. Several people were seated next to it. In the head seat, there was an old man who seemed to be in his fifties or sixties. He was dressed in an exquisite French suit, with a wig on his head. He sat there, upright yet graceful, his face very solemn.

On each side of him, there were two others seated as well. One was tall and thin, dressed in a white shirt and a black vest. His short hair was exquisitely done. He was around forty or so, and there was a gentle smile on his face.

The other person was around thirty-five, of ordinary stature. He wore a white suit, and his long golden hair was perfectly brushed, falling from both sides of his temples to his shoulders, dazzling to behold. His eyebrows were quite thick, and his eyes were very large, but in his eyes there was an undisguised hint of laughter, making him look a bit ‘naughty’.

Three men were seated on the other side of the table. An old man, a middle-aged man, and a youngster.

Compared to the three people in the host’s seats, they seemed to be slightly uneasy.

“Hey, is it the evaluation time again today?” Led by the young lady, Eva, Lan Jue arrived at that long table. He pulled a chair next to the man in the white suit.

“Jewel Master, you didn’t shave or comb your hair.” The old man in the head seat said with a frown.

Lan Jue slapped his forehead. “I knew you’d say that. Fine, I’m at fault. Even though I just came because I wanted to show that I’m making changes, and wanted to draw a bit closer to you old fogeys.”

The Wine Master said coldly, “If you are at fault, then you need to accept the punishment. You understand our rules.”

The man in the white suit next to Lan Jue lowered his head, and said in a very ‘cool’ manner, “Support.”

Lan Jue glanced at him sideways, then looked at the Wine Master. “What’s for dinner?”

The lips of the man in the white suit trembled. In the end, he couldn’t refrain from laughing.

The Wine Master laughed as well. “We can talk about what we’ll eat later. Since you are at fault, then you’ll handle the interviews for the next few people. You are more skilled in this regard than I am.”

Lan Jue shook his head. “No. That’ll cost me too much brain power.”

One of the seventeen evaluations in order to be admitted into Skyfire Avenue: Wine.

The Wine Master said, “If the results of your interview are satisfactory to me, tonight’s wine will be on me.”

“Done.” Lan Jue said.

The man in the white suit pursed his lips. “Can’t you be a bit more reserved?”

Lan Jue said calmly, “Then don’t drink.”

The youngster dressed in a black vest on the other side of the man in the white suit spoke for the first time. “Support.”

The man in the white suit said unhappily, “Gourmet, why are you always on his side?”

Gourmet said, “Because he has more taste than you.”

The Wine Master, in the head seat, nodded as well. “He does.”

Lan Jue cast his gaze towards the front. “The three of you, let’s begin. First one.” To him, the opportunity to sample fine wine was something he definitely didn’t want to delay if at all possible.

The face of the old man seated in the first position immediately grew solemn. “Please ask.”

Lan Jue said, “This is the Old Gothic Winery. Do you know where the wine from here comes from?”

The old man clearly had prepared early on. He immediately responded, “The Old Gothic Winery was one of the very first businesses opened on Skyfire Avenue when it was first developed. It engages in the sale of fine wine from various former nations of the previous era. These wines are preserved through spatial technology and can essentially be preserved in the state they were originally in year 2020. Actually, the most valuable thing about them is that once a bottle is drank, a bottle will be gone forever. Thus, the price is extremely high, but the ability to enjoy and sample these ancient wines is the mark of a true noble.”

Lan Jue neither assented nor disputed. He continued, “What is your favorite type of red wine?”

The old man spoke with seemingly great fluency. “Chateau Lafite. An ancient French wine from 1855, from one of the five first class Chatueaus in the Medoc, the Left Bank of the Bordeaux region.”

Lan Jue asked, “If the seven of us were to share a bottle of Lafite today, and you were the host, what would you do? Please explain in detail.”

The old man said, “I would carefully open it, then pour out a tiny bit, look at its color, smell its aroma, then taste it. After verifying that it hadn’t gone bad yet, I would them divide it amongst everyone, so that we can all enjoy this bottle of fine wine.”

“You can leave now.” Lan Jue leaned back against the back of the chair and said calmly.

“I passed?” A look of surprised delight was on the old man’s face.

Lan Jue shook his head. “No. You’ve been eliminated.”

The old man said with surprise, “Why? I didn’t say anything wrong?”

Lan Jue frowned as he spoke. “You’ve just prepared in advance. You don’t actually like wine, nor do you know how to drink. If a bottle of ancient Lafite wine were to be drunk in the manner you described, that would be an absolute waste.”

“Lafite, no matter what year it is from, is stored in a horizontal state. Before drinking it, the very first thing to do is to put it upright and keep it in the wine cellar for three days, allowing it to settle. When opening it, you do indeed have to first test the time, but it isn’t just to test for whether the wine has gone bad or not. The more important thing is to determine the status of the wine through tasting it, and determine how long it needs to be decanted for. One of the most important things for connoisseurs of wine is the question of how long the wine needs to be decanted. A normal bottle of Lafite would need to be poured into the decanter to be decanted for at least two hours. Otherwise, it wouldn’t taste much better than vinegar. It needs time to release its aroma. If you don’t even know that, you clearly don’t know how to drink wine. In fact, you’ve never even drank any fine wine. Thus, stop wasting my time.”

Unwilling to accept this, the old man said, “But the books all say…”

Lan Jue quirked his lips. “The people who wrote about Lafite in your books had never tasted it before. They just were writing based on what they had heard. To immediately uncork a bottle of Lafite and drink it is a form of disrespect to it. To drink it like that, you might as well dump it into a humidifier instead.”


Skyfire Avenue is a street that is 2048 meters long. There are 168 stores here, and each of the store owners is an extremely powerful adept. The Avenue does not permit any vehicles or any robots to pass through it, much less mecha. Even the patrolling police must move about on foot. This is because this is a street for pedestrians, a lane for nobles, hidden away within this high technology world. Lan Jue, the greatest of the mercenaries, code-named ‘Zeus’, has secluded himself here in Skyfire Avenue after the death of his wife. The name of his shop is “Zeus’ Jewelry Store”, and here in Skyfire Avenue, he has been given the title, Jewel Master.
