AFS 2: Strange Flame Strangeness - Part 6 - We’re Not Done Yet!
Author’s Note:
Seriously, that wasn’t the end? There’s more? Why did I do this to myself?
Part 6
Seriously, I could have gotten out of there myself… eventually. I had used most of my spiritual energy keeping my heat-shield up to protect me from the scorching lava and its weight. Then it cooled and hardened around me as I moved up.
I was planning on using my last bit of energy as sword Qi to slice my way out, but my divine sense picked up on S...

Part 5
Wang MingRen, well, he was called Spring now, knew that he had to stop her.
There was no possible way anyone, even someone with an SS-rank physique, could survive getting close to lava that unnaturally hot without a mech designed for it.
Really, he’d been too naïve before, thinking that she would add something to the mech to allow it to face the heat, or that she’d be able to use her strange spiritual powers to have it come over to be tamed. He thought...

Part 4
Since I used my divine sense to help us avoid any beasts, we made it to the beginning of the mountain within two hours.
Spring turned slightly. A bead of sweat dripped down his forehead, showing just how difficult older-style mechs like this were to pilot. “Fairy Lin, isn’t this going a bit too smoothly?”
I sent a flick of spiritual energy at the back of Spring’s head. “Did you seriously just jinx us like that? It’s been going smoothly because I’m just...

Author’s Note:
Okay, the start is a bit slow since I have to set things up but I’ll pick up the pace now... I might have underestimated how many words this April Fools story will be. (T.T) It’s because I realized that I had too many things I wanted to satirize about CN romance web novels.

I spent most of the first day using the split mind technique. One part I had focusing on the mech’s data coming from my light brain, and giving instru...

BTW, the chapters for this story are a little shorter than normal.
Also, sorry about there being so many pictures in this chapter... It's just because this is the set up.

Hi everyone!
I've been working hard, but unfortunately, I managed to pick up another bug thanks to my Little Dragon/Petri dish. Fortunately, my symptoms this time were very light, to the point that I confused them with allergies at first. I'm already starting to feel a lot better so I think I can get you this week's chapter sometime on Tuesday.
I apologize for the delay and thankyou for your patience! You all are the best readers a writer could ask for!

Hi everyone!
As many of you may have guessed, I am terribly sick. I will not be able to edit a chapter this week and next week I'm taking off for Thanksgiving so I can spend time with my family... that is if I'm healthy enough to do so.
We also lost a member of my household. My other cat Henry very suddenly passed away on Wednesday and we are mourning his loss. He was a very special kitty. He was perfectly soft, very sweet and I don't think I deserved it but I was blessed to look ...

Hi Everyone!
You all continue to be the best readers on Patreon! For that reason, I wanted to push myself to get you the next chapter by today. Unfortunately, due to a variety of reasons I'll have to push back the release of this next chapter to (hopefully) Tuesday.
For those wondering why... it's mostly because of my boy being clingy (something he only started being this week which makes me not have the space and time my ADHD-ass needs to edit). Also insomnia and my boy waking me...
