Chapter 5: Studies

<<<Xiao ‘Lily’ Lang>>>

The entire test was something of a bore for Xiao, aside from doing some interesting things with her Necroflame and experimenting, she didn’t do much of anything. She hated how insanely dangerous her quirk was, and honestly, outside of tricks, making that cold mist, she wasn’t sure if there were any other avenues she could investigate.

Maybe temperature manipulation? Hell, maybe she could pull off cryoman...

Chapter 4: Hero Trials

<<<Kana Sato>>>

She’d messed up; she hadn’t considered that there’d be an actual Hero nearby. But that was fine, it was fine. No one got hurt, she hadn’t gotten in trouble, and the only witness she cared about just took it as her being overprotective. It was fine, she was safe, she’d just need to watch herself in the future.

Of course, that same witness worried her. Xiao, “You’re my friend, so ca...

It's a bit of a shame that patreon is so anal about things. The next world for this thing would include things Patreon won't mind though! So if you like the degeneracy, remember to vote for it :V

Chapter 3:  Unexpected Meetings

<<<Xiao ‘Lily’ Lang>>>

“Kana! Hold up!” Xiao called as she jogged to catch up to the other student.

Kana stopped, allowing Xiao to catch up to her faster and proceed to put her arm over Kana’s shoulder and give her a friendly grin.

“Since we’re both foreigners, how about we go exploring?” She asked, “I’ve been meaning to do it but I’ve been so busy studying for the exam and never ...

Chapter 2:  Talks

<<<Kana Sato>>>

The voices were always loud. Not from people, or even her parents, but from the souls of other people. Always whispering secrets about themselves, things they could do or wanted to do. They were never things their body-selves wanted to keep hidden, just little things. Tricks they had saved for a rainy day or what they were craving for lunch (that the school was able to just make so much custom food impressed her a lot to...

Chapter 1:  The Beginning

<<<Xiao ‘Lily’ Lang>>>

Xiao, or Lily to her friends, found herself looking out the window, lost in thought; she never dreamed she would be there. Up until two years ago, she thought she was quirkless; she wasn’t, she just had one of those rare quirks with a very specific activation requirement.

Namely dying.

But there she was, in UA. Widely considered the greatest Hero School in Japan. Now, why was she there i...

>>>The Deep Abyss<<<

Everyone died; it was a simple fact of life. You could run from it, hide from it, try to bargain, but death came to claim you all the same. But dying wasn’t a regular thought that people had, so when you died, it was always a surprise!

But I’m perfectly healthy!

I eat nothing but healthy food!

A Lesson For Louise 19

Chapter 19: Charles Interlude

<<<Charles>>>

He always knew his father wasn’t a man of strong moral fiber; if anything, he was an unrepentant hedonist. Charles could only imagine how many bastards his father had, given the parade of courtesans and whores that he preferred to keep in his company. Birmir’s sake, he wasn’t even sure if his mother was his mother!

So, a very petite and frankly beautiful pink-haired mage shows up, seemingly out ...

Cult of the Bay

Chapter 50: Epilogue

<<<Dragon>>>

Life had taken a very drastic change when Lamb first appeared in Brockton Bay; she only paid her a little mind, seeing as she was in Colin’s city. Then she flipped the table over by destroying the entire E88 in what seemed like the span of a few days. That’s when she devoted more attention to the Bay beyond her conversations with Colin and collaborations...

A Lesson For Louise 18

Chapter 18: Bargains

<<<Louise>>>

Either Rei was rubbing off on her, or maybe she never realized she had a talent for teaching, but either way Louise found herself enjoying her time with Plantier’s son far more than she expected. He was an attentive student, didn’t possess the hang ups normal for nobility, and much like herself there was that drive… that hunger to prove everyone wrong.

Though he did seem pretty sheltered and lacked that spite...

Someone once said, “If you wish to test the character of a man, give him Power.”

She was pretty sure Abraham Lincoln said that, but Lamb could be wrong… history wasn’t her strongest subject (sure, she could just check with magic but where was the fun in that?). But she felt she was doing pretty well herself actually! Sure, sh...

A Lesson For Louise 17

Chapter 17: Meeting Plantier

<<<Louise>>>

When she first went to the Other World her dreams were wild and restless, often requiring Rei to keep her arms wrapped around her to get some restful sleep (an opening that Obsidia was all too happy to fill while at the academy). She theorized it was simply her mind being over active and stimulated beyond the norm, the very air of the Other World was filled with magic in a way that her home simply lacked.

While Lamb loved Italy, and seeing the sights (never mind the beaches) it felt good to be home. Besides, even with her cloning ability she felt guilty leaving the new members with only a clone to teach them… despite the fact that she was in both places at the same time. And…

She should stop thinking about it, it made her head hurt.

Chapter 16: Captured

Louise’s head was fuzzy, ringing, and her body hurt all over. But she wasn’t dead.

Just concussed and surrounded by debris.

The others seemed in a similar, or worse, state than her. Obsidia whimpered in… well, pain but also pleasure because Obsidia, Kirche was groaning and clutching her head, Tabitha was unconscious, and the inquisitor was bloody… but standing, his wand in hand.

“Okay, so… do we have everything?” Lamb asked as she shoved the last of her luggage into her crown.

Splitting her attention felt very, very strange. Cool, but being able to hold a conversation with her girls and with Hero and prepare her church for… a lot of new arrivals at the same time was… A trip.

That said, she was slightly worried about the malice she felt from one of the… pilgrims? Eh, she couldn’t think of a better term for the...

The surprise on the headmaster’s face was welcome when she’d told him what was happening, it informed her that the inquisitor was telling the truth on something at least. On the other hand, Tabitha seemed far less surprised; which was a touch concerning.

It didn’t take a genius to work out who informed the Inquisition… which she couldn’t truly blame her, ...

The press conference didn’t go on for as long as she had feared, no after Beatrice entered and apologized to the man things were rather crazy for a bit before things started to mellow out once more. The rest of the questions were softballs for the most part, though a few curve balls were thrown at her.

Honestly, some part of her didn’t really believe that her cult would ever grow beyond her girls and Annette. People got touchy on matters of religion, and there was precedent of them willing to fight and die for their beliefs. And, despite essentially being given the green light from Rebecca, she felt her ‘religion’ would be doomed to forever be obscur...
