Shattered Stone Talisman

Seraphist of Shattered Yokes

One thing Manziholet could not tolerate, sort of like ignorance or getting punched in the liver, was being ordinary. Ordinary was what failure called itself to feel better. Quite fortunately, then, that his life was anything but. For starters, his mother loved him so much, she had gladly sent him on death missions over dinner. It was her idea of effective motherhood, and Manziholet respected her for it, as he did with his father and twin brother who had taken a strategic separation from the family for the greater good. Meanwhile, both the Church and the government were preparing to wrestle for dominance, even though the world had yet to recover from the Ternary Strife – a conflict that had shattered entire planets and claimed trillions of lives. Presumably, they were very eager to extend the long line of ‘oops’ that was humanity’s history. To top it all off, seraphs and daemons were eyeing to once again invade the material world, tearing open the fabric of reality itself, and unleashing their immense power upon all existence. They might find allies among the downtrodden of humanity, who were very eager to burn the old system down and dance on its ashes. In the center of all was Manziholet himself, a Seraphist destined for greatness, the inheritor of an ancient plan, arguably a genius and definitely a cheater and liar with a robust disdain for authority in all its forms. As history shifted, Manziholet stood as the harbinger of its next great leap – one that would be his to control.

Stone Witch And Her 'Weird' Apprentice

To Corvina, half a century alive practicing magic and experimenting with ingredients in the vastness of the world was obvious; she was a Witch, after all, and it was her job to pioneer new avenues of magic and alchemy so that the rest of the world might enjoy a better life going forwards. Power came to her naturally, her fifty years of life having been devoted to acquiring it, and while she very much enjoyed the solitude of being a Witch, things change when someone interesting pops into her life all of a sudden. A weird, peculiar woman about half her age, saying things that don't make sense, doing things and acting in ways that seemed far too... practiced to simply be the mistakes that she claims they are; this woman caught Corvina's interest, especially since she was a hopeful woman with paltry skills in magic attempting to become a Witch. And yet where others found her to be merely a intriguing yet worthless prospect, Corvina saw something in her, something that she wasn't entirely aware would spark into something that would change her life forever. This is going to be a romance between a futanari (Corvina) and a woman, with quite a fair amount of smut eventually when everything has reached that point between them; there will be no PoV switches as I want to show everything from the older, more 'set' character compared to the fascinating and mysterious woman she meets. Fantasy, more about character interaction than action, slice of life between two interesting characters, and even more generic yet comforting chapters to read (hopefully) daily... If you like Futa on Female, Yuri, Fantasy and a good story, then please come on in and read~!

The second time she met him, she was the wife being bullied by a mistress, and he was the "knight in shining armor." The third time she met him, she was his client, and he was her attorney. ... By the Nth meeting, Attorney Shen said, "Su Liang, don’t you think our relationship should evolve? For example, you could be Xiaoyuan’s mom, and I could be Xiaoyuan’s dad." Shen Nancheng was a renowned gold-medal lawyer in Hangzhou, known for his rare defeats. He was single but had a five-year-old son. The boy’s mother remained a mystery, with rumors suggesting he was the result of a one-night stand, while others speculated it was a token left by Shen’s first love. Plenty of women wanted to marry him, but none were willing to take on the role of babysitter to a mischievous five-year-old. Su Liang’s love story, on the other hand, couldn’t survive the seven-year itch. When the mistress presented her with a pregnancy report, Su Liang knew her marriage was over. She couldn’t bear children, and her mother-in-law had been pressuring her for a grandchild. As for Yi Ze, when he realized there was no way to salvage their marriage, he only said one thing: “Su Liang, the house is mine.” She walked away with nothing. “Miss Su, I want you to be my mom,” a five-year-old boy said, looking up at her expectantly. Su Liang glanced at Shen Nancheng, who stood behind the boy, raising an eyebrow. “Did your dad agree to this?” “If he doesn’t agree, we can just live together, you and me!” the boy declared enthusiastically. “You little rascal, who said I didn’t agree?” “Then why didn’t you say anything sooner? A son can only do so much, you know!”
