Her only constant—a man with eyes more tumultuous than the wretched sea. But as the days turn into nights, and the sky is painted darker, Vaidehi realizes maybe she sought solace from the very root of her despair. (The cover art used is not my own.

His training as a security guard didn't cover it, nor did it cover how to deal with running into a hot guy from a past he's trying to hide from, or avoid alien conspiracies when they come knocking. Wait, what? That last one must be wrong, aliens aren't real. ...Right?

In a distant future, humanity has achieved the incredible feat of conquering the stars, establishing vibrant colonies across galaxies. Yet, amid this grand pursuit of exploration and technological advancement, people have sadly lost touch with the essence of what it means to be human—compassion, connection, and the intricate beauty of emotional experiences. Against this backdrop, we follow Lyra, an adventurous young man with dreams of exploring the cosmos. Eager to uncover the universe's mysteries, he is selected for a prestigious mission to Elysium, an enigmatic planet cloaked in legends and whispered tales of an ancient civilization that once thrived there. Upon the team's arrival on Elysium, they are immediately enchanted by its breathtaking landscapes—towering crystalline mountains, iridescent forests, and vibrant skies that shift colors with the time of day. As they establish their research base, Lyra encounters an extraordinary artifact: a shimmering, ethereal orb pulsating with a soft light. This mesmerizing orb possesses an uncanny ability to project vivid images drawn from the memories of the planet’s long-gone inhabitants. As Lyra interacts with the orb, he is whisked away through time, witnessing poignant and powerful scenes—lovers embracing beneath the glow of two setting suns, smiles shared during moments of triumph and joy, and heart-wrenching farewells that echo a universal sense of loss. Each memory reveals the depth of human emotions, illustrating connections that transcend time and space, reminding Lyra of the warmth and complexity that come with genuine relationships. Captivated by these hauntingly beautiful portrayals, Lyra begins to question the sterile, disconnected world he has left behind. His fellow team members notice his growing attachment to the artifact and its evocative memories. Drawn in by the allure of this lost civilization, they engage in deep discussions about the meaning of profound feeling—love and loss. Through these exchanges, Lyra and his team embark on a transformative journey of introspection, grappling with the existential emptiness that has seeped into their technologically advanced society. With every new memory, the weight of their reality presses down on Lyra. He faces a pivotal choice: should he return to the cold and alienating world of human achievement, where genuine connection feels nearly impossible? Or should he embrace the emotional resonance he has discovered on Elysium, possibly seeking a new, more meaningful existence among the stars, inspired by the love and longing of those who came before him? This struggle lies at the heart of Lyra’s journey—a quest not only for exploration in the vast universe but also for rediscovering what it truly means to be human. As the echoes of the past linger in his heart and mind, he must choose a path that will define his identity and the legacy he wishes to leave behind.

"A month?" Ariya was confused as to how to process the information that she just heard. When she heard about her wedding being rushed, she didn't expect it to be this fast.

And a week only consists few days. "But why? Why does he need to rush the marriage father?" too frantic to hide her emotions, Ariya's mind was totally in chaos.

Crab OG author : 喝一杯红酒 OG title : 游戏制作：从治愈玩家开始 Chen Xu travelled to a parallel world and was surprised to find that many classic and excellent games from his previous life were missing. I had a plan, but why did I get an 'emotion collection system', and the emotions such as happiness, sadness, excitement, fear, anger and other emotions provided by players who have played the games I made can make me stronger? But why is it so much easier to get anger than happiness? Looking at his score, Chen Xu expressed his confusion. As a result, Chen Xu's career as a game designer gradually took a turn for the worse.

In Dark Souls, when countless players entered the game smiling, "Go away, please go away, leave the Firekeeper behind and go out with your flame, we don't want to link the fire! Soap, Alex and Ghost were sacrificed in Call of Duty; Zack and Aerith were killed in Final Fantasy 7; Arthur and John were betrayed in Red Dead Redemption; Countless players went berserk: "You bastards! Can't we be kinder to the protagonists? Q: How do you feel about the players' anger towards you? Facing the reporter's question, Chen Xu smiled slightly: This isn’t criticism, this is encouragement from players around the world to me, this is love! Thank you all, I will keep up the good work!

My body stiffened as a palace guard called for me from the other side, but I ignored it. Mei, on the other hand, began pushing me away in a panic. "Cheng, let go," she said, struggling in my arms. "Can't you hear him? What if he comes in and sees us like this?" "I don't care," I replied, my lips brushing her ear. "Tell me you forgive me, that's all I need. I won't let go until you do." I knew I was taking a risk, a huge one, if we were seen like this, there would be consequences. But losing Mei would be the bigger risk, the one I couldn't take. I couldn't let her slip away. "I just need to hear you forgive me, mei. That's all I need right now." The guard knocked again, calling my name, and Mei struggled harder. "Cheng, please," she said, her voice cracking under the strain. But I didn't budge. Finally she muttered, "Fine. I forgive you." "I forgive you, you crazy jerk." "You really mean that?" I asked, my voice barely audible. She nodded, exasperated, and only then did I release her. Just as I did, the door swung open, and I barely had time to step back before the palace guard entered, the guard rushed in, his face pale with worry. It was a close call. too close, but I didn't care. Mei flinched at the intrusion, but quickly composed herself, stepping away from me to a more respectable distance. The guard, wide-eyed and clearly flustered, fell to his knees in a bow. "My deepest apologies, Your Highness. I called for you several times but received no reply. I entered out of concern, fearing the worst." I glanced at Mei, but she wouldn't meet my eyes. She simply gave the guard one last look and walked out, leaving the room without a word. I let out a long, exhausted sigh, running a hand through my hair, still reeling from everything that had just happened. Turning back to the guard, I motioned for him to stand. "Get up" "And next time, don't enter my room without permission." ———— Author’s Note (Rong King) This story is a work of fiction, entirely created from my imagination.
