If you’re unwilling, I’ll find someone else who can get the marriage certificates today.” His expression darkened as he pulled her close. “Once offered to me, it’s mine alone.” Unfazed, Arwen asked, “So, do you accept?

Leered was part of the first generation of "Heroes", since it was his generation that learned to improve the new abilities and characteristics that had arrived to his world during the time known as "the new beginning". Portals and enormous power crystals had arrived on planet earth, which emanated certain energy with overwhelming force. These "convergences" affected the terrain and in turn gave way to the spontaneous transfer/creation of various creatures, places and abilities, to which magical explanations were given. While at first this chaos resulted in a world at war, little by little the abilities that had awakened in humans, the new intelligent races that arrived on the planet and the constant expansion of the terrain thanks to the portals, gave way to understanding between species. This led to the formation of the first generation of Heroes, elite units of each race, which were trained for combat against the beasts of the convergence and, in the beginning, the arrival of an era of peace, this organization and their summoned were known at the time as heroes. What differentiates a companion from a mere weapon, power, when you become so strong that those you considered brothers begin to see you as a threat to the point of betrayal something has to be done. What would you choose if given a new opportunity? Leered is faced with this question, a lifetime dedicated to conflict and duty, a lifetime lived in order to become stronger, when presented with the opportunity to move on and leave this behind, will he choose to start over or will he seek answers?

"What are you thinking about?" "I'm thinking about a guy." He stopped in the middle of a deep kiss and sighed. His lips began to form a smile, but his fierce glare said otherwise. Possessiveness and jealousy spread across his sculpted face. "Will you tell me his name?" His easygoing and languid voice reached her ears. "Why?" "So that I can kill him."

Leered fue parte de la primera generación de “Héroes”, pues fue su generación la que aprendió a mejorar las nuevas habilidades y características que habían llegado a su mundo durante la época conocida como “el nuevo inicio”. Al planeta tierra habían llegado portales y enormes cristales de poder, los cuales emanaba con una fuerza arrolladora cierta energía. Estas “convergencias” afectaron el terreno y a su vez dieron paso al traslado/creación espontánea de diversas criaturas, lugares y habilidades, a las cuales se les dieron explicaciones mágicas. Si bien en un principio este caos dio como resultado un mundo en guerra, poco a poco las habilidades que habían despertado en los humanos, las nuevas razas inteligentes que llegaron al planeta y la constante expansión del terreno gracias a los portales, dieron paso al entendimiento entre las especies. Esto llevó a la formación de la primera generación de Héroes, unidades de élite de cada raza, los cuales estaban entrenados para el combate contra las bestias de la convergencia y, en un principio, la llegada de una época de paz, a esta organización y a sus convocados se les conoció en su momento como héroes. ¿Que diferencia a un compañero de una simple arma?, el poder, cuando te vuelves tan fuerte que aquellos que consideraste hermanos empiezan a verte como una amenaza al punto de llegar a la traición. ¿Qué elegirías si se te da una nueva oportunidad? Leered se enfrenta a esta pregunta, toda una vida dedicada al conflicto y el deber, toda una vida vivida con el fin de volverse más fuerte, cuando se le presenta la oportunidad de seguir y dejar esto atrás, ¿elegirá comenzar de nuevo o buscará respuestas?

"They told me the stars could guide me home, but they never said the journey would leave me so utterly lost." Do you still remember your highschool deskmate? The boy with the brightest smile, that girl with the world's most beautiful silhouette? In three years of high school, the shadows of two people intertwine with the chalk, black and white both distinct, drifting around within the memories. The Su Yuanzhou in her memories was an underachiever in high school. He skips class to shoot pool, cheats on his exams and gets into fights. Yet, when she went back to the past she would always surprise herself for seeing a lot of his side, maybe if she did this before he probably wouldn't die. To be able to meet each other on this planet is some kind of fate, and to be able to illuminate our fleeting lives, how fortunate we are. ... Ren Yuxin was trailing behind Su Yuanzhou like a guilty puppy, her face plastered with an exaggerated pout. "Come here," Su Yuanzhou said, stopping in his tracks and turning to look at her. His tone was calm, but the slight twitch in his jaw betrayed his frustration. "Why?" Ren Yuxin asked, her voice overly cautious, taking a step back instead of forward. "Just come here." His patience was running thin. Ren Yuxin crossed her arms and tilted her head dramatically. "No! You’re going to hit me!" Su Yuanzhou froze, staring at her in disbelief. A few students nearby stifled their laughter, pretending not to watch the exchange. "I’m not going to hit you," he said, exasperated. "Do I look like that kind of person?" "Yes." Ren Yuxin nodded solemnly, her eyes wide with mock innocence. Su Yuanzhou sighed, rubbing his temples. How does she manage to drive me insane every single time? His patience—already minimal—was hanging by a thread. "Ren Yuxin," he said, his tone low and dangerous. "Come here. Now." "No way!" she retorted, taking another step back. "I know you’re mad because I—" She paused, looking guilty. "Because you what?" Su Yuanzhou prompted, narrowing his eyes. "... Because I accidentally sent that embarrassing video of you singing in the shower to our group chat," she admitted in a small voice, her eyes darting away. Su Yuanzhou’s face darkened instantly. He felt every shred of his dignity crumbling. "Accidentally?" he repeated, his voice rising. "It really was an accident!" Ren Yuxin protested, raising her hands defensively. "I didn’t mean to press send!" "Accident or not, you’re dead," Su Yuanzhou said, stepping toward her with purpose. "See! You are going to hit me!" she squealed, turning on her heels and running off. "Get back here!" he yelled, chasing after her.
