A book of all your favorite bedtime stories with a twist



 The boys stared at the woman that came in. She looked nice and smiled sweetly at them but they do not want another woman, they want their mummy to read them the bedtime story. 

 "Guess what kids, I brought you a good friend, Ms Diddy. 

 She knows a lot of bedtime stories and she's going to make you love her story very much" Junxiie Li declared. 

 Ms Diddy also smiled at the boy. She is just meeting them but already likes them. 

 She hoped that they will grow to like her as much as their dad does. 

 Junxie likes her most among his entire employees. And she had never failed him as well. 

 "I want mummy" Lee declared, folding his little arms across his chest. 

 He frowned. They have never spent a night away from their mother. Now they misses her stories. 

 Junxie Li sighed audibly and said their mummy is somewhere far away from them. 

 But he promised to bring their mummy home with them the next day. 

 "I want my mummy too. I want to hear how the story of the fairy princess and the poor guard ended"Tim declared. 

 Junxie Li felt he was going to have a cerebra haemorrhage. 

 Is this how difficult to deal with kids? What has he gotten himself into that night? He should have just let them return to their mother and get the three of them over to his place the next day. 

 It was already dark and he wouldn't be able to take them out this late. 

 He doesn't want to contact Julia Li as well. His brother was likely to be under the quilt with his woman at the time. 

 "Oh, stories about fairy Princess and the poor guard are for little kids and girls. 

 But I will tell you a story meant for men and big boys like you" Junxie Li announced forcing a smile on. 

 The two boys exchange glances with each other. Is that true? They are now big boys and should be categorised as men?. 

 They noddedd and Junxie Li took a deep breath. 

 He looked at Ms Diddy helplessly. He wished he could escape from this situation but he has no where to escape to. 

 "Once upon a time, the jungle has only one king.." Junxie Li paused. What was he going to say next about the jungle and it's king? He looked at Ms Diddy and the later gave a shrug. 

 Even she doesn't know what happened in that jungle nor to it's king. 

 She had never seen the eldest master in such a difficult position before. 

 Looks like the boys have caught him in a difficult place that fe cannot escape their grip. 

 This is synonymous with finding oneself between the rock and a hard place. 

 "Yes go on" Lee urged his father, he was listening with a rapt attention. Junxie Li smiled. 

 Wasn't it supposed to be bedtime story? Why are their eyes open and void of sleepiness. He thought once he opened his mouth, they would start dozing off. 

 B But now, they want to hear about his fabricated story and Ms Diddy is not willing to bail him out. 

 "..ehm..yes, the king of the jungle was a lion, the biggest one in the world. So big with a sharp claws capable of destroying any living animal or human being. 

 Whenever it's hungry it roared like this rah..hhh.." Junxie Li made the sound of the roar and Ms Diddy was stunned. 

 What kind of a bedtime story was this? But before she could winked at Junxie Li, she heard 

 "Ahh….hhhhhh!!!!" from the kids and they closed their ears. Junxie Li was surprised. 

 He looked at the boys in astonishment. Shouldn't they be applauding him? 

 But why the sudden scream and closing of their ears? "What happened?" Junxie Li asked. 

 "Too scary daddy!!" Tim declared and hide himself under the quilt. Lee followed suit. 

 They covered themselves and didn't even let their heads be out. 

 Junxie Li sighed softly, stood up and went away. 

 The story was indeed scary and that was all he could think of and quickly make up to tell them. 

 Aren't they the ones who wanted a bedtime story before they could sleep?. 

 That'what they got, bedtime story. Why are they suddenly scared and scream? 

 Kids can be so annoying at times. How was he going to cope with them? Well he would have to get nannies as soon as possible. 

 He sat on the sofa in the sitting room. He would wait for Ms Diddy maybe she would have a way of making the boys sleep without the help of a bedtime story. 

 And in less than twenty minutes later, Ms Diddy walked out of the room. 

 "Are they asleep?" Junxie Li asked quickly, standing up from the sofa and Ms Diddy nodded. 

 "Since I don't know which fairy story their mother told them halfway, I sang them a poem and they drifted off to sleep. 

 But eldest master, that story you were telling them was indeed scary. How do you want kids like them to sleep without having a nightmare?" Ms Diddy complained. 

 "I couldn't think of anything else,"Junxie Li answered and sank into the sofa again. He is addicted to Ms Diddy. 

 She knows him as much as his mother does. If I am not trespassing, can I ask you a question eldest master? Ms Diddy requested.

A one night stand with a mystery lover makes her loose her marriage to her sister. 
 She realized that she was conspired against by her husband and step mother. She left the country and returned four years later with two adorable twins.
 Theresa Mo will pay back everyone who had made her experience pain in the past and found a new life with a worthy lover.
 Will Theresa Mo succeed or will be broken by love....?

Forever killing just so that her heart can continue to beat is his sin to bear. No one can know, no one must know! What he has done can only be known to him and no other. A man, or can he even be called a man? A man so hideous...  you could even wonder if he's a monster or perhaps, in hindsight, he might be one. 

Anyways, he's not the only strange one in this town because strangely enough, not one of the city's inhabitants thought their mayor was strange nor did they ever think their town is strange.

'Lalala~ Evil lurks~ closer than you think~ kyahahaha'

"Now, now welcome back to another day of Autodale," said a mechanical voice of a man heard simultaneously  from every house in Autodale. It is the most awaited morning entertainment showcasing the town's mascot, Auto: The Protector of Autodale! 

Kids in every household crowd over their TV every morning to watch Mr. Auto.  
This is Auto, the only entertainment on the TV! He taught us young children everything we needed to know to grow up perfect like Dad and Mom! 

Dad is perfect, he reads newspapers in the morning and then he goes to work! Mom is perfect, she cooks for us and reads me bedtime stories every night! Bed times stories are the best!  the one with the monsters, oops- there are no monsters in Autodale. We are all safe here.

In the midst of them, there is a 12 year old boy who as he was listening to the broadcast suddenly saw through the reflection on the TV, a sister trespassing in their garden running away from something with blood on her clothes. How odd!

It seems that she was being followed by Autobots, Mr. Auto's colleagues who aids him in protecting the town! She must be an imperfect!!!

He glanced at the TV where Mr. Auto is now 

"Autobots were the ones who captures every imperfect in this town. If you see one, say hi, children," said Mr. Auto as the boy and the neighboring children waved at the Autobots chasing the sister. 

"They are our heroes. They take away imperfects who are not perfect. We don't want them here,"

Everyone's attention helped delay the Autobots a bit and she eventually lost them by hiding in their family's garden and then a few moments pass by but it seems that she aren't planning to escape yet. In his curiosity, he followed her to wherever she go. They go through the alleyways and gaps between houses carefully so that they won't go noticed until they reached the tower, a place where no one can go. No one Trespassers are allowed to be killed on sight. What is she doing here?

The sister fidled with the tower as if she was looking for something and it seems that she is because after a while of her fiddling, the wall suddenly revealed a hidden passageway. The passageway seems to be going underground. I followed her through the flight of stairs.

As they we're going down, the sister's footsteps started to sound really loud, almost like she was alerting something... like a monster. 

T- that... T- there's a being that has a scary and decaying body, like the monster in my mom's bedtime stories! 

Wait! He looks like it but not at the same time? The wretched monster has a height of a human being as it is as tall as the big sister, yet it looks like his body is decaying? Is he a zombie? and what's with that back filled with wires?

"Mr. Mayor," The perfect sister walks closer to the monster- ehem- mayor.

We have reached the bottom of the stairs, so that means, we're below the town??? Above us is the town and below the town is a monster and... a big girl? What is that?... What are they? 

There are no monsters in Autodale! Mr. Auto said so! But he might be in for a surprise as below the town lies a monster who turns out to be the Mayor!

The boy was trying really hard not to make a noise. He hid behind the big clumps of wire that seems to be connected to the super big girl.

That's why 
"It is what it is. You've made a very good decision, Mayor." what? as he heard those words... his hopes that the extraordinary girl could find another way in which he could not, shattered.

He was not hoping to atone for his sins but at least, let him stop these atrocities. He wishes he could end it all. He wished he could die. He couldn't handle the pain anymore as large drops of tears started to flow from his eyes... haha it must've been his imaginations as even the simple act of crying is something he couldn't do anymore. How could he cry from these hollowed eyes? From this rotting body?! ...he wishes he could at least cry to alleviate some of his pain... but his body has long been unable to. Perhaps it's punishment, curses from the ones he killed. Just as  for his deeds which could only accumulate through the passing years.

Unbeknown to him, there is one boy who thought differently. In an angle they couldn't see, the sneaky boy dash through the stairs. The boy got out underground and broke through the surface.  He instanstly saw the town above and felt suffocated. 
He got a new outlook on this town that inhabits a monster much crueler and sadder than real monsters.
~~~
 
"Mr. Auto said that there are no monsters in this town but there are, the mayor is one and the other one is... here." A look of excitement swept past the boy's face as he reached for the lid of the canal. Once he opens this, there is no going back to the false security the last human town called Autodale has given.

He walked for a few minutes, he felt for the air's direction. Where is the entrance, or more accurately,  where did that monster come from?

The boy have a friend a long time ago. It was a monster... But contrary to his mother's bedtime stories, he was special, he was super sweet and gentle. He never harmed him, in fact, he played with him when his brother's were making fun of him. He was his friend... 

'Those were good times but it didn't last, my father found him. My father tried to kill him! I tried to explain and plead to not hurt him but he just wouldn't listen. While my father was trying to distract the monster and take me away from the monster, my mother called for the Autobots, the same ones who are chasing after that sister.'

The reason I was curious about imperfects is because mother became a widow after losing dad, an imperfect... that's what she became. We were told

He reach the outside.  

He was startled by this sound and stopped his wandering for a second. He closed his eyes and listened to the echoing sound. While he was 

The entire space surrounding him was enveloped by a bright light. After the light died down, he opened his eyes and saw an unfamiliar yet familiar place. 

"Where am I? Hello? Anybody there?" and yet no one except defeaning silence answered him. He is confused. 
'How could it be that '

"You are the future," he said while holding the monster's face.



Kieran raised his head to the ceiling and lights.
Unlike other parts of the cafeteria where fluorescent tubes hung in rows, the independent lounge of the First Seat was smaller, so the lights used were two ceiling lamps.
Brighter light allowed Kieran to scan the whole ceiling quickly, but there wasn't anything suspicious!
However, Kieran would never think his Intuition was wrong.
With his Spirit reaching V-rank, a wrong perception was impossible for Kieran, unless someone purposely misguided him. 
But as his Intuition reached Advance Rank, such 'misguiding' became harder.
Kieran's left index finger tapped on the table as he fell into deep thought.
While he was thinking, the set meals he ordered were served.
"Hello, sir. Three Set A meals, three Set B meals, and three Set C meals."
The server had to run back and forth nine times before he could carry all Kieran's orders and serve them on the table.
Set A was roast beef with potato and salad together with rice and egg soup.
Set B was braised pork in brown sauce, fruit salad, and rice plus a carbonated drink.
Set C was mixed vegetable stew, chicken salad, rice, and a bowl of meat soup.
Kieran arranged all nine sets into three rows and three columns in front of himself, took the chopsticks, and ate like a tornado.
Although it was just cafeteria food, it was still tasty.
The potatoes were soft, the portions of beef were tender, the braised pork wasn't oily, and the vegetables were fresh and crispy.
The server had not left after he served the food, he stood there blanky and watched Kieran eat, as if he was frightened by how Kieran ate.
However, when Kieran finished his food, put down the chopsticks, and looked up to the ceiling once more, the server showed a wicked smile.
A glaring ax appeared in his hand. He raised it and swung it towards Kieran's neck.
Suddenly, a hungry growl entered the server's ear, followed by saliva swallowing noise.
The sudden noise stunned him at the spot with his ax raised high, he turned his neck around stiffly.
"Nooo!" A horrifying scream came from the server, but it quickly stopped.
Only chewing noises were heard after that.
…
"This is too scary!"
"There are such rumors in the cafeteria?"
Standler was walking back to his dorm with Maica beside him. He was still reading the notebook that he bought earlier, and when he reached a specific part, he gasped.
Standler spilled the beans even without Maica asking.
"The Beheader is in the cafeteria! If you are the 3,000th person to walk into the cafeteria that day, order nine servings of food, and look up to the ceiling, it will appear beside you and chop of your head with an ax! This is scary!" Standler whispered out of shock.
"How scary is it? It's just some random story to frighten people like you! Aside from the fact that there aren't 3,000 students dining in the cafeteria every day, who'd order that much food in the first place? And when you eat, you lower your head, you don't look up!" Maica showed a disdainful look.
Maica had never believed the occasional tales of the mysterious Theorate his roommate told him, what library interrogator, cafeteria beheader, all those were stories made up by dull students to frighten others. 
He didn't care for such stories, and he compared them to bedtime stories. He thought his roommate should be concerned about other things.
"Don't you think you should train yourself better? You are lucky that you got knocked out last night, but what about the next?" Maica's personality had turned him into a straightforward person. He would not hide or take turns, so he was destined to offend a lot of people with his hurtful words, but sometimes he would make some decent friends as well, like Standler, who was an easy-going person.
"I'll be careful next time." Standler closed his notebook and scratched his head awkwardly.
Standler was really frightened by the incident last night, but until now, he couldn't think of any good idea to deal with it.
Maica turned to his roommate, but he only sighed helplessly in the end.
"Let me teach you some basic combat moves. I'll train with you every day for one hour before sleep," Maica said.
"But I want to read before I sleep… O-Okay." When Standler caught Maica's less than friendly gaze, he changed his answer right away.
"But I think the things written in this notebook should be real. I've read a lot recently, and I found out there are indeed incidents that happened in the library and cafeteria, it's exactly like what the notebook says!" Standler shifted the topic back to his stories again.
"Well, of course! They were made up after those actual incidents, it's more realistic that way, and it's easier to scare people like you! If you don't believe me, you can find the scariest one in the notebook that requires two people, and I'll go test it with you so you can see how lame you are," Maica showed even more disdain.
"The scariest… Huh! Got it! The weeping gymnasium! Two people are required to be there at midnight…"
"It's settled, then. We'll go there this weekend." Before Standler could finish, Maica waved his hand to show his agreement and hastened his steps.
Maica knew how silly those stories were in his roommate's notebook, just like how he knew the night at Theorate was dangerous.
The night wasn't something a freshman could handle, and even a 3rd year had to be careful.
Of course, there were exceptions.
For some reason, Maica thought of the outrageous First Seat that he served, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch. He pulled along his slow roommate and hurried back to their dorm.
Soon, the day turned dark.
The cafeteria provided three basic meals every day but not supper. Before the sun fully set, the workers in the underground kitchen already started to leave.
Therefore, a moment before dark, the cafeteria was empty, and like any other building, it would always fall into darkness, but not today.
The lights at the First Seat lounge were opened.
After placing all nine trays into the sink, Kieran went back to his seat. He looked up to the ceiling again. He then looked back down at the dining table, and his mind started to spin.
"Look up at the ceiling when one should eat with his heads down?
Secret in the ceiling?
No, that's not right, the key point should be… eating!"


Welcome to a virtual underground game with no protection, full of lurking players who seek survival, power, and fortune. Kieran chose to enter this VRMMORPG game without hesitation, because he knew this was the only way for him to escape death’s grasp. Can he escape death in real life though, or will he end up dying inside the game? 

I live beside the coast of Northern Lucios. It is my home ever since I was young. The wind breeze is so warm and the coconut from the coconut trees are so fresh and delicious.

Father called me and Father said to me that the ocean are big but I joked to him that if you step back a bit you can cover the whole ocean with your palm. Father laughed when I said it.

Father always tell me stories of the word so I always asked him to tell me new stories but he said to me that it's still morning. He only tell stories when I'm about to sleep and make me sleep in peace.

I am talking to Father when Datu Maru is looking for me shouted my name. Father said to me to go and he will tell new story later.

I run towards Datu Maru as I wave to Father but still i can't wait to hear new stories.

Datu Maru asked me if I am the one who destroyed the coconut trees on the Southern Lucios. How did he know that? Why this old man knew that I went there?

This is Bald, Datu Maru. He is one of the twelve chieftains in Lucios. He is man in his thirties, he his still young to be bald. He has a very big yet tough body. He is like a bear.

I said to Datu Maru that I only defend myself from the bear and the bear is the one who destroy it.

Datu Maru looked at me with a serious face. I wonder what he think with what I said.

Datu Maru said to me that I still need to replant the coconut trees. He said that I am responsible for it and I need to replant 10 times of the coconut trees the bear destroyed.

I tried to beg but Datu Maru is Heartless! he also said He will take the bear in his possession in exchange of punishing me.

"Ye!" I replied to him.

I can't stand it! I am not the one who destroyed yet I got punish. Isn't this a punishment Datu Maru!? Besides there's a lot of coconut trees here in North and in East. Why do we need to have coconut trees in the south? Lucios is not a populated country.

"Hoy, Ydeo!" Some is calling me.

I know this voice! It's Mina!

Mina said to me that she heard about my punishment.

This is Mina the daughter of Datu Maru and my childhood friend. She is a cute little girl and she get Dayang Ba-na her mother cute face and brown hair. Mina get Datu Maru's scary eyes but unlike hee father it looks cute on Mina. She is like a scary looking yet cute baby angel.

I explained to Mina that it wasn't my fault and I am glad she believes in me. I asked Mina if she brought some lunch because I was planning to catch some fish with Father when Datu Maru called me.

I said to Mina that I am asking Father to tell new story. Mina also love the story that Father told me. Mina said her favorite was the story about the giant bat that lives in the Moons. Mina asked me to eat first.

In the Torogan where Datu Maru lives. Dayang Ba-na her husband Datu Maru about Ydeo. Datu Maru said to his wife Dayang Ba-na to not worry about the kid. Mina is with Ydeo so Dayang Ba-na do not need to worry about Ydeo.

"I'm glad that boy is cheerful again, after what happened to him 2 years ago. I thought He wouldn't be able to smile again." Dayang Ba-na said.

"I still wonder where that boy gain his strength. Ydeo is only a 9 years old boy yet he killed a bare with his bare arm." Datu Maru said.

Datu Maru and Dayang thinks that maybe Ydeo was loved by the gods and their ancestors.

Meanwhile on the Southern Lucios. We are now currently walking to the woods but as we walk Mina slipped, I asked if she is okay and she answered to me that she is okay.

We keep on walking and I observed that the bear was already taken by Datu Maru. He already took it before asking me, that old man.

Mina was impressed to me as how I beat a bear. She said to me that I am strong and I can be a Datu but I said to her that I do not want to be Datu like her father.

Mina asked my reason to why I do not want to be a Datu and I said to her that being a Datu will only give you headaches and it is a pain in the ass.

Mina said to me that if I choose to be a Datu, I will be recorded as the strongest Datu in history of Lucios.

I said to me that i want something else. I just wanted to be free but Mina said that we are already free. I only laughed as I react to her.

"Stoo being cute, Ydeo! You plant to slow!" Mina said to me while scolding me.

"But we're only just about to start!" I said to her.

She got annoyed as I try to talk back to her. Mina is so scary when she is angry.....

Even in a different island, everyone has their own memories to remember.

"Hey! Hey! Bakunawa! Look at this butterfly, aren't she cute?"

"Yes she is where did you saw her?"

"I saw her on that orchid! I catch her for you!"

"But you have to released her."

"Yes I will. HIHIHIHI!"

Back to the Southern Lucios. Me and Mina wasn't able to finish replanting the coconut trees as the sun set.

"Wow, it's the twilight!" Mina commented.

The twilight is beautiful!

"You see Ydeo, I don't want anything else in this world but this." Mina saidm

"The twilight?" I asked.

"Hhm? Yes! The Twilight. HIHIHIHIHIHI!" She replied.

"Me too." I said.

Mina said that it's getting dark so we have to go back and I agree to her, I don't want to encounter the wolves because they are annoying, I said to Mina. I also worry that they might attack us and I wouldn't be able to protect Mina from them.

We run as we go back and I asked Mina to go back with me tomorrow and she said she will.

I am glad I have Mina, She is so bright and colorful! I said in my mind

I am glad I have Ydeo, He is so amazing and funny! Mina said in her mind.

I challenged Mina to have a race and she accept the challenge. The loser will prepare for the lunch tomorrow as bet and she accept it.

I run so fast and win the game. Mina was amazed on how fast I am. Datu Maru came out of the Torogan with a bliss in his face.

Mina will prepare for the food tomorrow! Yeahey! I will be able to taste Mina's cooking.

"See you tommorow Mina!" I said.

"See you tomorrow Ydeo!" She said.

Now it's time for Bedtime Stories! I can't wait anymore, I gonna dash!

I called to Father as I run towards him and Father said "I am here." Father said to me that there's no need to run.

It's time for Bedtime Story!

"It's about the story of Tiny Humans." Father said.

"I know that! Those are Dwarves! Datu Maru taught it to us in Torogan with the other kids!" I replied.

"Dwarves? Well Ydeo, they are quite different from Dwarves. Dwarves are creature of the Land. But what I'm gonna tell you are human which is tiny as a palm." Father replied.

"Which is more bigger Father?" I asked.

"The Dwarves, they are as big as a 1 year old baby." Father answered.

"What is this Tiny Human Father?" I asked.

"We call them Suman." Father answered.

"That's sound so tasty Father! I think it's a food!" I replied.

"HAHAHAHA! No it's not that suman, Ydeo." Father replied.

"Then what are the Suman?" I asked.

"Sumans are tiny humans beloved by the nature, They are the one who make keep the land nourished." Father answered.

"Is that why we have fat soil?" I joked.

"Yes, Ydeo. Hahaha" Father replied.

"Where are they?" I asked.

"They use to live every where, but a certain god change almost everything in this world." Father said.

"What!? How can I see the Tiny Human? I wanna see them!" I replied.

"They now live in a land called Kasuman, the Paradise Land. It is a vast land which is ten times bigger than the land of Lucios. It has full of Trees, Flowers, Plants, and every kind of animals. They co-exist with the nature and protect it. 

"Despite being small, they are incredibly strong. Never underestimate someone's strength with their size. They can beat a giant.

"Suman are a lovely race, they are passionate in what they do, from farming to fishing and to any agricultural work. Most of their fruits are big! One tree can feed a whole barangay." Father said.

"If they are small, then why everything they make is big?" I asked.

"What they make is not only for them, but also to feed every race and creature in the World. That's why every single thing is big." Father said.

"What is the biggest tree they plant?" I asked.

"Its the Acacia. It is the biggest tree in the world. It goes up to the skies. It is their pride. They also live in the Acacia. It protects the land of the whole world. The roots of it makes sure that every land is together and never go away from it." Father said it.

"That's Amazing Father!" I replied.

"Do you wanna see it?" Father asked.

"Yes, I want!" I answered.

"Once you old enough, go to the Land of Paradise and see how great the Suman is." Father replied.

"I will Father!" I replied.

"Suman loves Human, but be careful. They do not like liars. So Ydeo, never ever lie to them. Do you understand?" Father said while looking in my eyes.

"I won't lie to them Father. I promise!" I replied.

"That's good.

"Ydeo, it is already time to sleep. You should sleep now." Father said to me.

"Yes Father, good night!" I replied to Father.

Father's stories are always amazing! I can't wait for tomorrow, I want to tell this to Mina!

As the night passed, after I wake up, I quickly run to Mina. I want to see her as soon as possible!

I can see the Torogan! But why is Datu Maru and Dayang Ba-na are outside? And why are they sad?

Datu Maru And Dayang Ba-na are talking about me and Mina. I step in asked about Mina. Dayang Ba-na was shock when she see me.

Datu Maru talks to me and said to me to not do anything stupid. I asked him why and where is Mina.

I can see he is stopping his cry but his wife Dayang Ba-na couldn't stop her cry. Datu Maru said to me that the Holy Covenant came earlier and they took Mina.

The Priest who came said the Mina is curse and she have to be taken.

What is this feeling? What is this emotion? This is strange.

Datu Maru seems worrying and Dayang Ba-na seems like saying something.

Why am I sleepy?

Mina,

Where are you?

Knowledge, Power, Ideology, Wealth, and Fame

This is what the World always desire.

People from different Races fight against each other as they climb the top.

A boy name Ydeo step out of his home in order to achieve his dream to see all of the beautiful places of the world. As he was inspired from his Father bedtime stories.

Ydeo will met new people, will they become a friend or enemy?

Let's see how Ydeo challenge the whole world.

Yin Tao was excited because it was the first time he slept with his father and daddy. After he dragged Rong Yi inside the room, he rushed to the bed, climbed up the bed same high as his chest, took out tiny pillow and quilts from his Storage Bracelet and put them next to Yin Jinye's. He patted his tiny pillow and said excitedly, "Daddy, father, come here."

Looking into Yin Tao's sparkling eyes, Rong Yi had no heart to refuse him. He looked back at Yin Jinye, wishing he could refuse this damn kid.

Yin Jinye gave the kid whose smile was bright as sunshine a look, sat down, kept wiping his magic weapon, then said, "You two sleep first."

Rong Yi gave him a hard stare. He meant to let him to refuse the kid but not to allow them to stay.

"Daddy. Come here. Daddy. Come on. Come on. Come here…" Yin Tao rolled on the bed.

Rong Yi opened his mouth but finally he didn't refuse him. It was not a big deal to sleep on the same bed with a kid and a man. Besides, since the master of the room agreed, he didn't need to complain like a girl.

He walked to the bed and Yin Tao threw himself at him excitedly, "Dad, bedtime story, bedtime story."

Rong Yi's eyes twitched, "I better go back to my own room."

God must know that he hates kids so that he specially sent this kid to torture him.

"Don't go, daddy." Yin Tao dragged his sleeve tightly, with both anxiety and expectation in his eyes.

"Do you still want bedtime story?" asked Rong Yi.

"Yes, I do." Nodded Yin Tao.

Rong Yi, "…"

"Daddy, come up here." Yin Tao dragged him onto the bed.

Rong Yi sat down, with one leg hanging at the bedside.

Yin Tao took off Rong Yi's shoes as if he was afraid that he would go at any minute.

Rong Yi took his shoes by himself as he didn't want Yin Tao to try so hard to please him.

Yin Tao then got down by his side and said, "Daddy, bedtime story."

Rong Yi rolled his eyes secretly. How would he know how to tell bedtime stories? Maybe fairytales from his world? He only overheard a few small stories that his elder brother told his younger brothers. But he didn't know the whole stories.

 "Daddy, please."

Rong Yi then asked helplessly, "Why do you want to listen to bedtime story?"

Yin Tao then answered with jealousy, "Other senior brother apprentices all go to bed with their dads telling them bedtime stories. I want that too."

Rong Yi could tell how much this kid wanted love from fathers. He stroked his head and started after thinking for a bit, "Once upon a time there was a kid whose senior brother apprentices all like to listen to bedtime stories from their fathers. One day, the fathers all disappeared…"

"Why did they disappear?" asked Yin Tao out of curiosity.

"Because the senior brother apprentices liked bedtime stories too much to sleep, so Heaven took their fathers away forever."

Yin Tao then hugged Rong Yi tightly. "I don't want to leave you. I don't want to leave you. Daddy, I am done with bedtime stories."

Rong Yi was amused how easily kids were fooled.

Yin Jinye snorted while he was wiping the weapon. He expected that Rong Yi could tell a good story. It turned out to be nothing.

Giving him a quick look, Rong Yi said to Yin Tao, "I might be taken away by Heaven if I tell bedtime stories. But your father wouldn't be taken away. We can let him tell us bedtime stories, OK?"

Yin Tao giggled, "Great."

Yin Jinye, "…"

Rong Yi didn't expect Yin Jinye to come over himself, so he went off the bed to urge him, "Stop it. The more often you wipe it, the weaker it becomes. You might not notice it at the beginning. But given time, you will realize it."

Yin Jinye narrowed his eyes because he really found his magic weapon was not as handy and powerful as before. He always thought that was because he overused it. He even had Spiritual Weapon Maker examine it but found no problems. Was it because he wiped it too often as Rong Yi said?

He was then dragged to the bedside.

"Bedtime story, father." Said Yin Tao happily.

 "It's too late. You should sleep now." said Yin Jinye flatly.

Yin Tao barely said yes and tucked himself in his little quilt as he was deterred by Yin Jinye's condescending power.

"Alas." Rong Yi sighed, looking at the damn kid. If he had known that Yin Jinye could make him sleep with only a few words, he would have already made him do it in the first place.

"So should you." Yin Jinye pushed Rong Yi slightly.

"You mean here?" asked Rong Yi.

"Hmm."

Rong Yi then climbed onto the bed hesitantly.

Yin Tao hugged him immediately, "It feels awesome to sleep with daddy."

Rong Yi patted slightly on Yin Tao's back and closed his eyes. He was worn out after excessively enchanting twice today.Soon he already fell fast asleep.

Yin Jinye picked up his magic weapon and checked it, frowning, and decided not to wipe it anymore. After he put it back to his Storage Ring, he heard even breathing sound from Rong Yi and Yin Tao.

He looked at the kid first and then Rong Yi. This young man didn't wear makeups like a woman as his subordinated described. And what was more, he neither was a coward nor was ill-tempered.

Before he came, he had already made up his mind to stay strangers with him, but now he had kind of expectations for the future development of their relationship.

The minute Yin Jinye was about to look away from Rong Yi, a strand of spiritual power generated from all directions in the air and flew into Rong Yi's body. If he had no such high cultivation power and he was not focusing on Rong Yi, he wouldn't notice it at all.

"Interesting. You can absorb spiritual power  even when you sleep." Said Yin Jingye while curling up his lips.

No one else could do that.



“Mom, I can’t sleep…can you tell me another bedtime story…?” 

Cheska is sulking while looking at the back of her mother who’s about to leave her room. When Rowena turned to her, she’s not lying down on her bed anymore unlike before when she walked away from her bed. She made sure her beloved daughter is already sleeping before she leaves but looks like Cheska was just actually pretending to be asleep. 

“Bedtime stories?” 

“I heard it’s effective…” 

Then she started to walk back to her bed. Cheska’s innocent eyes sparkled and moved an inch away to give her mother a space on her bed. 

“Here…” Rowena tapped her side. Cheska obeyed with excitement and leaned to her. She loves stories. She loves new information. There’s no reason to not feel excited at all. “I still haven’t told you this tale, right? A Tale of Four Spirits? It’s my most favorite story of all time.” 

She shook her head slowly. “You only tell me about prince and princess…” 

Rowena put her arms at the back of Cheska’s head and started to caress it slowly hoping it would help her to get sleepy aside from the tale. 

“Once upon a time, there are four spirits who decided to live in the world of mortals as human beings. The four had an agreement to restore the balance of goodness and evilness. The four spirits are the angels and the demons.” 

The sparkles on Cheska’s eyes started to grow. She never heard stories about angels and demons from her mom. She’s already looking forward to the finale. 

“As they arrived in the mortal world, they changed their appearances to human-like features. Later on, they did what they seek to do. They have successfully fixed the imbalance in the world of mortals. 

“However, as the moons pass by, the two demons suddenly became bored and decided to spread more evil than they should be. This defiance instantly reached the angels and warned them to stop. Believing they’re finally stronger than them, the demons didn’t falter. Until—” 

“Mom, it’s not like I’m judging the angels or what but why are they trusting the demons?” Cheska couldn’t help herself not to interrupt the story-telling. 

Rowena slowly lowered her head. She thought her daughter is getting sleepy but it seems the opposite. She doesn’t look sleepy at all. Contrary to that, she looks so intrigued about the angel’s questionable decisions. 

“A deal with the demon is something that is unbreakable. No one can break it even the demons themselves. Breaking the deal will result in horrible consequences. The punishment is scary enough to scare the demons and act accordingly. The angels hold onto that but the demons are unstoppable.” 

That’s a satisfying answer for Cheska so she returned to being quiet again. Rowena averted her gaze and continued what she’s doing to her hair. 

“Until the angels were left with no choice but to remove their abilities and turned them into mortals. It's the same as giving them death. Angels are commonly stronger than demons that’s why they didn’t stood the chance. And so, the balance remained.” 

And the room fell in deafening silence. 

“Is that it?!” there’s a surprise in her voice. “That’s short! What an absurd ending!” 

Rowena smiled. She actually said the same thing when she was still young and small. Now that the memory of that tale has returned, she can’t help but wonder again how the story will end. Even she doesn’t know what is going to happen next. 

“It’s still not the ending, lady…the story is still ongoing.” she slowly left her daughter’s side and covered her body with a thick comforter. “Sleep now. Even the story isn’t effective to you. You’re just fooling around.” 

“It’s because the tale is boring,” she scowled. “That’s your favorite tale? It’s too short! No ending as well? I still prefer the prince and princess stories.” 

Rowena flicked her tiny nose making her scowl even more. “We have different taste, lady. Besides, my parents originally created that story for me. They know how much I love stories about angels and demons and gods that’s why they decided to make one.” 

The excitement that was inside her body vanished into thin air. She expected too much for that new tale and now…she’s really disappointed. She loves her grandparents with all of her heart and she respects them deeply—she really does. But now, she can’t help to criticize their mind and their story on her mind. Who makes a story as absurd as that? Who makes a story without an ending? What a cliffhanger. 

She just kept all of it inside her mind—all those criticisms. She’s afraid to speak about it loudly. Her nose might get flicked again. 

Rowena sighed. How is she going to leave her daughter now after seeing the big disappointment written all over her face? She almost had the same expression when she found out that the story has no end. 

But now that she’s old and happily married with three kids, has the story finally ended? 

“According to mama, the angels are really strong, smart, and powerful but even with that, they can’t keep the balance of goodness and evilness alone forever. They will eventually need help from a demon. There’s a big possibility that another demon will come to the mortal world and replace the two treacherous demons.” and she kissed her forehead. “Sleep now, lady. You still have training tomorrow. Don’t tire yourself too much before that.” 

Cheska only blinked slowly. Rowena can tell she’s finally getting sleepy now. At long last. She silently went to the door and as soon as she touches the knob, she heard her daughter speaking sleepily. 

“What if…the new demon will do the same thing that the treacherous demons…did…?” 

Cheska eyes slowly closed, still facing where her mother is. Even if she’s already sleeping and can’t absolutely hear her, Rowena gave her the answer she got from her parents after asking the same question. 

“Mom.” 

Rowena came back to her senses when she heard the voice of her daughter. Xeign is right at the doorway of the master’s bedroom. She smiled at her and invited her to come inside. Xeign sat at the place where her mother asked her to sit—it’s just right beside her. 

“You need to eat mom…you need your strength. Should I bring the food here instead?” 

Rowena’s fake smiles remained on her lips and started to caress the hair of her youngest. “I’ll go down later. Don’t worry about me.” 

“Mom…” She stopped her from caressing her hair and held both of her hands. Her shoulders dropped. “Brother won’t like this? I’m sure even sister won’t like this. I miss you so much, mom…” 

Rowena stopped for a while when Xeign suddenly wrapped her arms around her. She felt her heart sank after hearing her youngest’s silent sobs. 

“I hate them for ruining you like this, mom…I hate them…” 

“Oh, baby…” Rowena chuckled a bit and hugged her back. She hugged her back tightly hoping Xeign would feel how much she loves her. And how much she’s sorry for what is happening. “I love you so much…I’m so sorry…” 

“Everything is going to be fine, alright? Sister is coming back. She is coming back to us. You need to look fine if that happens, alright?” she stared right into her mother’s eyes. 

Rowena held her cheeks. A tear dropped from her eyes. The smile didn’t even fade for a split second. Whenever she’s in front of her children, she tends not to show what she truly feels. She wants to remain strong. She wants to remain tough. Even if it’s too hard. Even if she doesn’t know how. Even if she doesn't know if there's still a reason to be. 

But she knows…she knows Cj and Xeign and her husband can see through her. They can see what’s behind her fake smiles. They can perfectly see the truth behind her disguise. 

“I will, baby…”

Humans have differences. There are powerful and powerless, wealthy and poor, smart and naive, brave and coward, strong and weak. In order for the war of differences to end, different worlds were created. For more than decades, peace and harmony reigned in the three worlds, however, not all things are meant to be there forever. Rebellion has started and the worlds are in chaos. Only one girl, one special girl can bring back the peace and harmony and kill the rebels. Will she still be able to accomplish her duty once she learned about the buried secrets? Will she still stand up for peace after learning the reality?

Good night😴

3 friends aged over 18 find a secretively path which is a secret path/tunnel to a magical land where imaginary animals live, on a beautiful scenario.They found some extraordinary things they have never heard or seen or thought about but one day an unexpected thing came up.

Bo Jiu was slightly disappointed that her ploy was exposed. Hugging something else had the same effect.
He probably saw her discomfort because Qin Mo asked casually, "You can't sleep?"
"Mmh," she replied, sounding sullen probably because she wanted to cough.
Upon seeing this, Qin Mo walked over to pour another cup of water. Only this time, besides water, he also picked a book from the shelf.
It was the book he usually read. Bo Jiu recognized the cover page because the little princess had been reading it the day before.
"Go over a little." Qin Mo stood by the bedside. There wasn't much change in his expression.
But Bo Jiu, who heard these four words, suddenly became alive. Her small body moved to the left, emptying more than half the area. After she was done, Bo Jiu promised earnestly, "Momo, don't worry, even if we sleep together, I won't behave like I did yesterday, don't be afraid."
Qin Mo tightened his grip around the thin blanket and raised his eyes. He replied simply, "Shut up."
Bo Jiu was pleased and completely unaffected by the little princess's resistance. After all, she understood that he was shy.
If Qin Mo knew that this little tiger attributed everything to his shyness, the blue veins on Qin Mo's forehead would probably break again.
Fortunately, Bo Jiu was still well-behaved sometimes. She was looking at him passionately with wide eyes, her angelic little face tilted while lying on the bed.
Qin Mo leaned against the bedside and opened the "One Thousand and One Nights" in his hand, his cold boyish tone carrying a childlike quality. "According to legend, the Kingdom of Sasang used to be on an island between ancient India and China. The king's name was Shannuya. King Shannuya would marry a woman every day and spend the night in the palace. But on the second day when the rooster started to sing, he would kill her ruthlessly…"
Little children enjoyed listening to stories.
For Bo Jiu, she treated the things her father did as stories. But Mr. Bo was very busy and didn't have much time for storytelling. Accurately speaking, this was the first time someone specially read her a bedtime story. Initially, Bo Jiu was in a daze. Soon, as the story progressed, she started to cough less and all her attention was placed on the side profile of the little princess and the fascinating story.
Time trickled by slowly as the night flew by. The two of them weren't like others, probably because they were so similar.
Qin Mo didn't have anyone to tell him bedtime stories. He was just like a little prince – a lonely little prince. He would fall asleep reading a book every night.
Although there was still no one to tell him bedtime stories, a little heater was lying beside him, with her head tilted as she listened to him reading. It made him feel like it was alright for her to drop by occasionally.
He continued to read. He just started the third story from the book "One Thousand and One Stories".
Just then, someone arrived on the first floor. It was none other than Mr. Bo. He was wearing a black trench coat and holding a bouquet of roses. He was here to bring his little Lord Jiu home.
Old Master An gestured for him to listen to the noise upstairs.
Mr. Bo chuckled mischievously. "My little Lord Jiu is progressing rather quickly. It didn't take long to stay over. It seems like it won't be long before she buys your grandson home."


Fu Jiu appears to be a normal lad in high school on the surface. But in fact, she (Yes! She!) is the hacker, Z, a villain-terminator in the online world of an alternate world. Having reincarnated into the body of a woman and being forced to disguise herself as a young man, she reigns over the game world, fights for justice, and puts a spell on all the girls around with her innate charm. However, her flirting comes across as gay to the rich Almighty Qin and his inner circle. Over time, the Almighty Qin falls for him… her. Has he turned gay for him… her? Now, that's confusing!
Keywords: Rebirth, Face-slapping, Online gaming, Pet lover, Hacking, Chocolate-flavored lollipop
Sugary Scene:
Fu Jiu said, "Almighty Qin, do you have a girlfriend?"
Qin Mo lowered his laptop. "No."
Fu Jiu lowered her voice and started flirting carelessly. "You have one now, me."
Upon hearing that, Qin Mo pounced on Fu Jiu domineeringly!
Fu Jiu was stunned. "Wait, what are you doing?"
Qin Mo replied, "Exercising my boyfriend rights."

Day 4-5

Part 1

Hana

"Why are we all sleeping in one room again?" Luke asks as he maneuvers a mattress into the far corner of room away from everyone else's. 

"It's part of our group exercise of bringing us all together." 

"I think Hana has brought all the males together already." Luke pouts looking at Simeon who's mattress is close to mine in the center of the room. 

"Don't be jealous puppy, I'm sure yer master will give ya a head scratch before ya go to bed." I launch a pillow at Mammon and he falls backward as it beams him in the head. 

"Yes!! Score one for me!! Now be nice to Luke. Unless you want me to tape your mouth shut? Hmm?" I ask sweetly, I'm only teasing him though, well maybe. 

"Don't do that, Mammon would just like it." Satan smirks. 

"Fuck you, Satan!" 

"No, I'd rather you didn't. Hana on the other hand...she can fuck me all she wants." 

"Ooh no...no, please don't. No f....lunking while I'm in here." Luke says in a panic, his face going scarlet. 

"Relax Luke, I promised on the first day we wouldn't do it with you in the room." 

"You're about the only nice one here Hana."



"Thanks Luke, and ignore Mammon."


"Hey! You can't ignore the Great Mammon!"



"Great Mammon my ass. More like scum on my shoes." Satan says 


"Piss off Satan! And don't ignore me!!"

"Ignore him." I say

"Luke you can ignore Mammon." Lucifer says as he walks in the door looking around at the mattresses spread out. He sighs, I can tell he isn't looking forward to this little activity. I actually thought it would be pretty funny, having all the guys together in one room was sure to be entertaining, I needed some laughs. 


"The hell Lucifer!? Don't go tellin' people to ignore me!" 


"Mammon would you like to sleep in the hallway, or should I send you back to the maze? I heard you made friends with the giant snake down there." Mammon immediately shuts up at the threat from Lucifer. I giggle, Asmo had to save Levi and Mammon from the maze, but he got an amazing video of them both screaming their asses off. It was priceless. 


"Who is sleeping where?" Asmo asks as he comes into the room. 

"Hana should sleep by me." Mammon says


"But I want to be close to her. Plus you owe me for saving your dumbass."


"I don't owe ya shit! I want to sleep beside Hana!!"

"Stop acting like children!" Lucifer snaps.

I'm laughing as I watch them bicker back and forth. 

"Why don't you guys draw straws?" I suggest, they all look at me confused.

"What do straws have to do with this?" Lucifer asks and I bust up laughing. 

"It's a game humans do when they are trying to figure out which person will do or get what. We can put the mattresses together in a way where I'm in the middle. If you arrange them right then two people will be on each side two will be at each end, so that's four people sleeping close to me."

"How do we draw straws?" 

We arrange the mattresses as I told them and then assigned a different color to each mattress. The kitchen didn't have straws but they did have skewers and we colored the bottoms. 

"Y'all fuckin' cheated!" Mammon hasn't stopped yelling since they all drew straws. How did I wind up between Lucifer and Diavolo? One end was taken up by Levi and the other end was Solomon. The rest scattered their mattresses across the room and Lucifer made Mammon sleep by him to keep him in line. Luke looked a bit happier since Simeon was closer to him now. 

"If you keep whining you can sleep outside." 

"But why!?!?!?! Why do YOU get to sleep by Hana?!?"

"MAAAMMMMOOOONNNN!" I decide to take pity on my poor Mammon. I walk over and plop on his lap. 

"Here, you can have lap time. Feel better?" 

"Yep, just don't sit on Lucifer's lap." 

"Hana can sit in my lap if she wants to." Lucifer says and I just look at like why are you adding fuel to the fire. Mammon goes to talk and I turn around and plant a kiss on his lips before whispering in his ear. 



"Be good, if you do we'll go on a date when we get back from this trip and then I'll stay the night with just you." 


"Promise?"

"Promise." 



Bedtime

"Hana, what do humans do at sleepovers?" Diavolo asks. 


"Well, I've never been to a sleep over myself, but I've seen them on TV. Tell scary stories, watch movies, pillow fight, eat popcorn and other snacks, girls paint each other's nails. Play games."

"I want snacks!" Beel says.

"Ooohh Hana let me paint your nails!" Asmo says as he claps his hands together. 

"Scary stories." Satan says

"Movies, a new Ruri-chan special came out!." Says Levi.

"Shut up Otaku!" Mammon snaps. 

"Diavolo, do you know if the kitchen has stuff for smores? The fire is burning so we could roast marshmallows." I ask, chocolate sounds pretty damn good. All these males are driving me crazy. 

"Smores? What are smores?" I have to educate them on the gooey chocolaty goodness that is smores! I usually made them on the stove, but a fire is going in the fireplace. 

"It's a treat that is usually made over campfires, but you can do it over any fire. You take a roasted marshmallow and chocolate and sandwich them together with gram crackers. It's really good."



**loud growling noises**

Beel's stomach let's out a monstrous growl and I can see him drooling. 


"I want some smores! I'll take 200 hundred please." If Beel eats that many smores he's going to be bouncing all over the damn walls. Might be entertaining though. Demons on a sugar high. I really wanted smores now. 

"I'll call Barbatos to see if we have the ingredients, if not he has a portal that is close to a grocery store."

"What?! I want to go to a human grocery store!" Beel says, a gleam in his eye as he thinks about all the food in the store. 

"Beelzebub I'm not sure it would be a good idea for you to go to a human grocery store." Diavolo says with a laugh. 

"Sorry big boy, but I have to agree with Diavolo on that. If a human tried to stop you from gorging on food they would lose a hand, and what did I say about eating humans?"

"Not to eat them, unless they try to eat me first." He looks down to the floor and pouts. I go over and rub his head. 

"Wow, you got Beel to agree not to eat something?"

"I asked him not to eat anything humanoid as long as it doesn't try to eat him first. If it tries to eat him first than all bets are off and bon appetite."

"I only agreed because it's Hana that asked." Beel says. I give him a hug,  he is so cute!

"I contacted Barbatos and he said to give him an hour and he will get the ingredients and bring them here. He'll also make some small snacks and bring drinks."



"What sort of games do humans play at sleep overs?"



"Board games, Truth or Dare..." I start



"Truth or Dare?" Satan asks.



"A game where you ask a person truth or dare and they have to pick one. If you pick truth, you'll be asked a question that you have to answer truthfully. If you pick dare the other person dares you to do something. Usually there us a minor punishment for either lying or not going through with the dare."



"Hmm...that sounds rather interesting. What about board games?"



"Monopoly, a game where you move a figure around a board and buy up properties to see who can end the game with the most money."



"Real money?!?!?!" Mammon asks.



"Fake money." 



"Well that blows." 



"There's Clue, where you ask players questions trying to figure out how a character is murdered."



"Do we get to actually murder someone in this game?" Satan asks with a scary gleam in his eye as he looks toward Lucifer and Mammon. 



"No Satan, no real killing will be taking place. Pull your crazy back in." I tell him and he tsks at me. 



"Tch....You're no fun." 



It's going to be an interesting night.
