Melancholy Glitchtale

'What is my purpose?' He thought as he gazed at the carnage that surrounded him. With every step he takes countless perish, with every action countless mourn. Behind him legions so vast they cover the horizon and blot out the heavens. His soldiers, servants, friends, children. 'That's right.' He remembered with a tinge of melancholy, 'This is my purpose.' Author's note: High fantasy setting, with a heavy emphasis on action, army tactics, political schemes and world building. No harem and very little romance.

In this bustling city, his life was originally like a stagnant pool of water, without any waves. An accidental opportunity allowed him to start a chapter of living in the same room with a 26-year-old mysterious female tenant.

From the initial mutual temptation to the inadvertent spiritual touch later, every moment was full of subtle emotions. They wandered together under the neon lights of the city and struggled in the trivialities of life. Those sweet or bitter experiences, like pieces of a puzzle, pieced together a memorable love story bit by bit. Behind this, hidden secrets and challenges of life also followed one after another. Can they find the exit in this complex emotional maze and move towards the future hand in hand? Everything is slowly revealed in the love-hate entanglement in this rental house.

This is the right version of the story on my account the other one had some problems on webnovel. A story about traveling through a system! Incest, multiple blood relatives, harem, pony cart, and light training. The protagonist's soul traveled through time and space to a newborn baby, and he was sent to Xia City when he was just born. At first, he didn't know that he was Liu Ruyan's son! The most important thing is that he was bound to a very bad system called the money exchange system, so after he could speak, he showed a melancholy temperament! Others thought he was sad about something, but every time someone asked him, he shook his head lightly and said no! But only he knew the pain in his heart! He guarded a system, but the system asked for money. It gave money for intelligence, but I still gave money for strength! Unfortunately, Liu Xuan, who was thrown into the welfare home, lacked money! Otherwise, he wouldn't have been hungry every day and bullied. Until Liu Ruyan came and handed over a 10 billion black card, the world finally changed. The beautiful mother's soft breasts that made people linger, and the long black legs that were longer than his life, yes, that housekeeper, the loose maid clothes, weren't they just waiting for him to fuck them? At this moment, Liu Xuan, who had been single from the previous life to this life, immediately notified the dog system after receiving the black card handed over by the beautiful mother, and directly blessed his bird gun that was growing well into a thick cannon...

Lin Ge applied for a job as a bartender at a bar, but the customers who came there seemed strange. The female warrior who wore very little and whose armor could easily be seen through was basically impervious to nothing.

With each mile that he passed with his car his anger turned from fury to a blinding fire to a pitch black pit of chaos. And yet the pitch black chaos was too small a word as further ahead he went, until there he stood in front of ‘Manerium Somniorum’ The manor of dreams. Standing at the gates his anger dissipated to a form of fear and melancholy. Christian knew it like he knew the back of his hand that these emotions were his. Whatever he was feeling was an aftermath of what the manor was listening in on. The walls were screaming the story that unfolded between their bricks as the windows tried to leap open, over powered by the yearning need for some kind of a void. An escape from what unfolded. The gate of the manor seemed barred from reality. Acutely preoccupied by the nightmare. Participating and escaping every word the manor screamed. Time did not exist beyond these gates. No what was left behind was simply the shadow of broken hearts. With each second that passed Christian watched a darkness descend upon the manor as thick mists of clouds and shadows formed. Untouched was the reality outside the gate but inside Manerium Somniorum dreamed. Dreamed of a heartbroken man. Echoed of an unquenchable thirst. Begged for her return. Pulling every reality into it in its desperation, whispering and moaning Christian or anyone that dared to watch to enter. Enter their dream. Dream their love. And bathe in their despair as a symphony lulled Christian into a heavy sleep. With each ticking minute the manor seemed to draw further and further away, without even realizing his eyes had closed and his body was mesmerized by her. By them. It played out again like a song, starting with a verse. A look. A pair of eyes. A shadow. As translucent darkness shone brightly around a man and interlaced with his soul. And there she stood. It was her form and her face and yet her eyes betrayed who she was. A conscious thought metaphored into her existence, standing right there under the soft glow of his lantern. Christian was the prince and the prince was chaos as their fell in love for the first time. As their skin felt the fleeting graze of her smile and their ears heard the soft whisper of her gown tease the ground. There all three souls stood as one falling in love with the same form and yet a different woman. "We were never meant for tomorrow ..." She said with a trembling voice as her hand reached out for his, so close and yet much like their fates all there was between them were dreams.

Shalom park has always been a center of attraction. Known for its beauty, serenity and energy, people flock there everyday to take pictures, have picnic or just sit around enjoying the smell of the blooming cherry blossoms. Karina, a beautiful young lady sat under a purple Jacaranda tree, gazing up to the sky with loneliness and melancholy oozing from her. It was around noon and the sun was nowhere to be seen, instead the clouds condensed as if welcoming the arrival of a rain. "Looks like it's going to rain." Karina said to herself which sounded almost like a whisper. "How I wish it could wash away the pain I feel right now." She sighed. The sky rumbled, confirming the presence of an incoming rain. Karina stood up, packing her bag and prepared to leave but stopped suddenly after taking five steps. She stood there till the rain began. It started as drops but soon increased and within no time, Karina was soaked. She stood under the rain for about 8 minutes, shaking and sneezing continuously. Passers-by looked at Karina with strange gazes but went their way without approaching her. Tired of standing, she crouched and shivered like an animal hiding from its predator. After a while, footsteps echoed in the rain, getting clearer and clearer until it stopped beside Karina. The footsteps belonged to a young man who covered Karina with his suit and shielded her from the rain with his umbrella. Having bent for long, Karina had a hard time standing and could only stand with the help of the young man. "It's you!" After having a clear look of his face, Karina exclaimed. "Yes, it's me but what on earth are you doing in the rain like a kitten abandoned by its owner?" He questioned confusedly. With a bitter and lonely smile, Karina asked "You think so too?" *"I Can't Marry You...."*

(After sipping shampane from her glass Miss Bertelli Asked ,the black suited guy, Mr. Agusti) "Tell me, Mr. Agusti, what an 'Antagonist' is in your eyes?" (Enjoying the appealing moonlit from the balcony, he answered in a nonchalant voice) "Well, if you've ask me the wordly meaning ,then, a 'nemesis'. A 'villain'. An unwanted 'competitor' ,but, if go deep down in it's meaning ,then, perhaps...." "Perhaps a true protagonist of their own stories." (Cutting in his words she interfered) (Not liking the habit of cutting his word in middle he turn to glance at her for the first time) "That was interesting word game on your part, Miss Bertelli." "Not 'Miss Bertelli'. You can call me Sancia." "Do you always offer to call your first name like this to anyone, Miss Sancia." (He said sarcastically) "Not to anyone, only you. I've a feeling you'll need it a lot in near future. So, It's better that you start practicing early." (she commented confidently) (After a long pause to notice the woman infront of him thoroughly he replied) "Right, now, I also got that feeling. See you, then." "Sure, see you soon" (Seeing his back getting further and further away. Eventually, she turned to look at the same moonlit scenery he was enjoying earlier and drowned in her own melancholy. ) (Suddenly noticing you .....that's right you!!) Sancia: Hi, readers!! Are you ready to get lost in nothingness?? Do you dare to cross the boundary of consciousness just to get bounded by them more strongly than before?? If you do, then just join me on my journey!!! And let's get started!!!

In the nursery, a gentle figure sat, cradling a baby in her arms. The soothing scent of lavender drifting through the air as the last remnants of daylight faded away. Shadows danced on the walls, created by the flickering of a single candle that stood on a nearby table, casting a soft, golden light over the room. The figure, a mother, began to hum a familiar melody. Her voice low and tender, resonating with love and warmth. The baby's eyes, round and curious, fixated on her face, as if entranced by the soothing sound. Gradually, the hum had turned into soft words as she had begun to sing a lullaby passed down through generations. "♫ ~Fate and Time, with grip firm and tight, Charted our path with designs, not in sight. Their threads of destiny, a tapestry to unfurl, A journey of life, in melancholy, to whirl." Her voice like a balm, wrapping around the child like a warm embrace, seeping into every corner of the room. As the lullaby had unfolded, the baby's eyelids become heavier, slowly succumbing to the pull of slumber. "♫ ~ Oh, Fate and Time, why so callous, Your agenda not aligned with the heart's zealous. Your tides of life, a fateful wave, Against our dreams, they often deprave." The mother gently swayed as she sang, rocking the baby in a tender rhythm that mimicked the comforting beat of her own heart. As the last notes of the lullaby lingered in the air, the baby's eyes finally closed, succumbing to a peaceful sleep. "♫ ~ But in the face of such adversity, We must acquiesce, a life of diversity. Challenges to face, with valor and trust, To rise from the abyss, a resurgence from dust." "♫ ~ Oh, Fate and Time, why so capricious, Your machinations, often deleterious. Yet we persist, with fortitude and gleam, To reach our destiny, and fulfill our dream." The mother gazed at her child for a moment longer, planting a soft kiss on the baby's forehead before tucking the tiny body under a warm, cozy blanket. *** Three chapters a week. Unless told otherwise. Happy reading :)

She cannot love anymore. He doesn't know how to love. She disregards him. He despises her. She is the moon that have lost its light. He is the sun that burns every sensibility alight. A lost princess and a cold hearted prince. Bound by fate without a choice. Will she let go and begin to love? Will he give way and learn to love? Will their destiny end in felicity or melancholy? Kaia's life is far from perfect. And so is she. But to keep up appearance as a princess one should act perfect. Or you'll be the jester among royalties. She never expected to be married off to a prince and she never would have thought he'd be the one to succeed in driving her mad. Hanson's life is filled with responsibilities. He is far from perfect.

And he never thought she would be the one to drive him mad. But what they don't realise is how they have grown fonder of each other. Until its too late...

"Love comes to those who deserve it. " So my mother told me. "It just hasn't come to you yet. You'll receive a love so passionate, your love story will be told for generations and will bring tears to the eyes of whatever audience comes upon it. And my dear girl never go for anything less." Those were the last words my mother whispered to me on her dying bed. She lay there so weak and pale. I couldn't keep myself from crying any longer. I was 18 years old at the time. My father died when I was 2, I had no memories of him. All I know of him are the few stories my mother could bring herself to tell me, when she was not in one of her melancholy moods. Those words remain with me, for who wouldn't keep the last words of their dying parent who was practically the only parent they knew their whole life? I wept for my mother, but I also wept for myself. Who was going to protect me from then on?? Life was never fair. I had thought at the time. I just never knew many times those same words would come back to haunt me...

Hillary is very loyal when she's in love, but falling in love with her is a big no-no, she will surely never get out of your head and you'll end up chasing her again and again. She was bullied in the past and was fond of being alone, but all thanks to her prince charming for saving her in her doom-world. She then became a happy-go-lucky person, Veia Jane Garcia, who's always been the reason for other girls' jealousy because of her closeness to the Abellera twin. But, as she comes along with them, two hearts will beat for her, but only one can win her heart. On the first stanza of the song, 'Born For You', it says, too many billion people, running around the planet. But, of all the people in the world, what will you do if you end up loving the person your sibling owned? In this story, people will be played by love and friendships will be shaken.

"It was a starry night. I blinked away the moist blur in my eyes and marvelled at the beauty that stretched before me. A small town at the countryside, away from the noise and hassle of my previous life, a new beginning— —Is what I hoped for. I was far from it, I soon realised." Chloe Campbell, a twenty one year old art student, had a very rough childhood and if it weren't for her mother's constant love and support, she might have lost all her will to live. Her sudden death, however, took everyone by surprise, especially Chloe. She was shattered by the news. Left with the responsibility to care for her alcoholic father, nobody noticed her spiral down into the darkness. She was drowning. Suffocated and helpless, until her aunt Diana decided to step in and take her under her wing. Now Chloe lives with her aunt at a country farmhouse, working her way towards her so-called "fresh" beginning. But, what Chloe didn't expect was a fateful encounter with an ethereal being right off the bat. The tinge of melancholy in his emerald eyes hinted towards a dark past and darker secrets. And Chloe felt an enigmatic attraction towards him. She felt like she had to know more about him, even if it meant getting entangled in a centuries old curse that he believes only she can break. This is a love story of two very different people and how they overcome their differences and all the adversities to have their happily ever after.

"What the hell are we going to do now?" She said. She was petrified, to what her parents had just told her. Why can't they be supportive? Why does everything have to be difficult? Why should THEY be difficult? "Don't worry. We'll show them that we aren't messing around. You know I'm crazy about you, right Caila?" The boy replied with a kind voice. She nodded, and they held hands. For a moment, they felt as if everything is alright, that they're the only ones in this world, that everything is peaceful. When in fact, the world is a cruel place, full of people consumed by envy, wrath and greed. "I love you, no matter how many times they separate me from you. I will always find you." The boy continued to declare his love as they drove away in the city with their getaway car. All is well until... Darkness.

When I was troubled searching for a work in this city since I did not want to continue living like this, a woman entered my room without knocking. Without even at least a single polite greeting or words of pleasantry, she kept on staring at me with a hardened gaze.

Never have I ever dared to do what my heart tells me to ever since I was little. Closing my eyes with resigned feeling, I'm waiting for judgment to comes for this pitiful life of mine. I was waiting for the pain I was expecting to come. A minute, another minute, then another minute has passed and I knew it's still not coming for me. The atmosphere seemed to be a little strange. Feeling confused, I opened my eyes and peeked at her face. It was now completely crimson as her cheek was blushing to the highest extent. I thought I was able to imagine a steam coming from her head for a split second. Instead of my confusion disappearing, it worsened instead. Keeping my perplexed expression, I was screaming inside my head.

One of them says that it doesn't matter if she loves him or not, she is his to cherish and pamper. The other says that she is the only one he would ever love. Though sceptical and wary, Su Li decides to put her best foot forward and make the best out of her circumstances. Why are these two men trailing her? Will she be able to get rid of the shackles placed on her by the system? Will she repudiate her deal with the system? Will she find out the answers to all her doubts and questions or will silence and melancholy be her only answer? --------Line Break-------- An excerpt from the book : "You care that much about Zixi? Because of him, you are ready to discard concerns about your own safety? Is it worth it? Is Xun Zixi really worth it?" Su Li was agitated by Li Rong's unceasing questions. She weighed her words properly and said in a hoarse voice, "It's worth it." Suddenly her eyes glazed in tears and she repeated her words, "He is worth it to me." Li Rong was stunned to see her in tears and was rendered speechless by the conviction behind her answer. "Well, I can't change your mind. You won't leave him in a lurch and I can't turn my back on you." They rushed back the way they had come and prayed that it wouldn't be too late on their part. ************ You can join me on discord at: https://discord.gg/QRgX3DZ Looking forward to seeing and interacting with you on there!
