“So we’re in agreement then?” Jin asked Francis who had come to the flying dock of the Illusion Room Sect. It was the same large wooden structure that he had left from with Elder Flower back when he’d gone to the Mad Monks Sect.

It had barely been half a year since he’d returned, and he was off again.

It reminded him of ...

Just because James and Joey had decided to commit the largest heist of the century, namely stealing back the Growlithe that belonged to James, didn’t mean that they could immediately set off.

First, they needed to do the requisite training and gather the necessary equi...

Harry Evans Chapter 128: The last dialogues of year three

I thought that I would get more nervous as the date approached, but I’m not. I’m actually becoming more calm.

There’s a sort of serenity in knowing that one’s trials will soon end, allowing for a continuation of the life you wanted to live before it got interrupted. 

A pregnant body isn’t very fun, I have to admit, but it’s also beautiful in a way. Thankfully, I have Petunia to help with the day-to-day as I get too large to do much.  View Post

Harry Evans Chapter 127: Self-Flagellation

I did it. Just in time. A complete success. I felt a great stirring in the soul of the world as I completed the world to replace the child’s blood entirely with my own, but the doctor says that the pregnancy is progressing as well as it could. 

Or, well, as well as it can for any 17-year-old. I’m too young, they say, but I feel so old.

It was an interesting ritual; the components were hard to source, but I had help.

Finding James at the Poketech Institute was a bit random, considering he’d just met Jessie less than three weeks ago.

At this point, he’d only have to meet Meowth, and then he’d have the whole trio. 

Thinking about it… He had also met Ash in Pallet Town.

They never told you about the aftermath of the big, bad fight at the end of the year after the books.

It always just sort of ended.

A conversation with Dumbledore, a train ride back home, and summer started.

In reality, however, the whole thing was quite unpleasant. Harry was sweating more than ever, and even though he was happy to be back in his own body and that Dumbledore had conjured him a robe, having to fight V...

Harry Evans Chapter 125: The End of Innocence

A glistening pearl of sweat ran down Harry’s brow as he considered the last room separating him from the confrontation between Neville and Quirrell. 

It was a large, barren affair, the grey stones jutting out unapologetically from the slightly uneven walls.

A boiling cauldron next to a table full of ingredients was set in the middle, and on the other side from where Harry was standing was a door that he could feel was covered by some sort of ward.

Harry stared at the marauder’s map being shoved in his face like a hooker who'd just been asked to play minecraft. Dazed, confused, affronted. 

“Hermione and Harley are waiting there for you, so we can go confront him together?” Harry asked the boy who lived to wake him up at ungodly hours at night. 

“Yes,” Neville whispered harshly. “But we need your help!”

Video Game Cultivator Chapter 58: Genius of the sect

Jin had very high standards for the entirety of the scenario he was creating, however, for Helgen, his standards were even higher. 

This was going to be an introduction to his masterpiece, the first work that he had picked and worked on in its entirety of his own volition. No wars, no sects, no exams, just sheer choice.

That meant it had to be perfect. And anything that was meant to be perfect, required a perfect introduction. Helgen was that introduction.

Harry Evans 123: Punch in the balls

The day after his session with Flitwick, where he’d seen the golden trio on their way to Hagrid’s hut, he awoke to pandemonium. 

“You won’t believe this,” Cedric muttered as he came down to a chaotic common room full of harsh and dissatisfied whispers.

“Believe what?” Harry asked confusedly as he looked around. Why was it that, for once, everyone else was up before him? He was usually amongst the first.

Video Game Cultivator 57: Beast King against Man

The zombie conflict ended not with a bang, but with a whimper. Before Jin had even heard about its conclusion, Elder Flower was already in his face, brusquely asking about what progress he’d made on the templating. 

He would have loved to have used the technique which he was slowly developing to puppet more than just one of his limbs, to show her the middle finger. Instead he’d somehow refrained, simply waving at her. She gave the attempt a disparaging look, before leaving.&nbs...

If not working on the cabinet and on the wasp enchantment had cleared up about six hours from Harry’s week, then Quirrell putting an abrupt end to their deal freed up about another six. 

For his end of that deal Harry had been grading homework about four hours every week, while also suffering the magical abuse disguised as teaching of the dark wizard for two. If he really wanted to, he could have also counted the time that he now didn’t have to spend in recovery after their ses...

Jin chewed on the tip of a fountain pen as he stared at the roll of parchment unfurled in front of him. One would assume that a project as large as remaking Skyrim would be daunting for a leader of a team of three, but this was actually the first project that wasn’t on a deadline, so he experienced it as rather relaxing instead.

Lung Junior ran through the dark tunnels beneath the asylum, his steps echoing loudly against the metal pipes, attracting all the miscreants around him to his position. 

A flash of pain against his forehead, he went down. Suddenly, he was surrounded, kicks, fists and crude weapons raining down on his form. He cringed at every strike as he tried to half-heartedly extradite himself from his position, but it was of no use, and he ended up dying.

Harry Evans 119: The beginnings of Ascension

The bloodlines so often spoken about in the magical world are magical, not genetic. My research and comparison between magical and Muggle sciences has shown a worrying divide where logic should have shown a connection.

It is almost like magical beings are beings of metaphor. Someone is more likely to receive the parseltongue ability if their parent more closely identifies with the ancestor who exhibited it last than they are if they are more closely linked to that ancestor ...
