Agares Goetia

The Shadow of Great Britain

“Next, we have the most noble recipient of the Order of the Garter, the Grand Cross of Saint Michael and Saint George, the Grand Cross of the Bath, the Victoria Cross and the lower grades of Knighthood, the leader of the anti-colonial movement, the bell-ringer of the East India Company, the hero of the Crimean War, a Fellow of the Royal Society, a lifelong dear friend of literary giants such as Dickens and Great Dumas, a steadfast supporter of scientific luminaries like Faraday and Darwin, having served as assistant under-secretary, deputy under-secretary, and permanent under-secretary in departments of the Home Office and the Navy Department of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, the inaugural Cabinet Secretary and head of the civil service, the first graduate and most distinguished alumnus of our school. Please welcome Sir Arthur Hastings to deliver a speech on the occasion of the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of the University of London.” Arthur's gaze swept across the crowd before him, looking at the young faces and murmured, “Agares, what do you think I should say?” The Red Devil's wraith hovered behind him, saliva almost dribbling from the corner of his mouth, “Look at these ignorant souls; they still worship you as a hero. Why not say something they'd like to hear?” Arthur took a deep breath and let out a deafening roar, “Oxford is a bunch of whores' bastards!” “Oh!!!!” The audience erupted into thunderous applause. “Cambridge is the same!” he added immediately. The applause grew even more fervent... (The protagonist, possessed by a devil, travels through 19th-century Britain in a world without magic)

Love and Red Coloured Ties

Julius didn’t know what to expect when he stood in front of the grandiose gates, luscious fields, and beautiful students dressed in their pristine uniforms looking like a million bucks. He told himself that he wouldn’t get involved with anyone and that he’d keep his head down since the chances of him moving again were quite high. He didn’t expect to find himself to be so entranced with the dorm leader Agares Montgomery, the most handsome boy he’d ever seen. “So what’s Agares really like?” Julius asked. Silas grinned mischievously. “That’s a tough one.” Julius noticed the sly smile on Silas’s face and realized he’d been teased. “Just kidding~” Silas said, chuckling. “Well, Agares is a bit of a mystery. He’s strict but has a laid-back side too. He’s cold most of the time but can be surprisingly kind in rare moments?” Julius couldn’t help but laugh at the contradictory description. “Why do you make it sound like you’re unsure?” “Because he really is a puzzle. He’s not a bad guy, though. He keeps to himself and mainly communicates through the vice leader, Epaphras. He’s insanely popular, not just here but at Saint Ambracia Academy too. There have been incidents where girls from the academy tried to sneak into East Laurence just to see him. It’s crazy.” “Anyway,” Silas said, “you probably won’t interact with him much unless absolutely necessary, so don’t stress too much about it.” That should’ve been the case, and yet, he found himself interacting with the dark haired boy more and more, his admiration slowly started to change into something more. “Do I like him?” He couldn’t help but ask himself. ………………….. Avondale, a city of privilege and prestige, high school junior Julius Loriana steps through the grand gates of East Laurence Preparatory School, a renowned institution for the elite. Having spent years moving from city to city due to his father's job, he’s determined to keep his distance and stay under the radar in this new chapter of his life. But everything changes when he crosses paths with Agares Montgomery, the enegmatic dorm leader of House Ares. With his striking looks and effortless charm, Agares captivates Julius in ways he never expected. As Julius grapples with his resolve to remain detached, he finds himself drawn into a whirlwind of emotions that transforms his mundane existence into something exhilarating. Follow the love story between a shy boy and his socially inept senior as they navigate through the pains of love, friendship and the hell that is known as high school. …………………………… A little extra note: This is a sweet love story, a bit of a slow burn but definitely worth getting into.. Each chapter includes a song and I would definitely recommend you listen to the song (on low volume of course) while reading. You get to feel the full Julius Loriana experience by listening to the music he’s also listening to with each chapter. If this story happens to curry your fancy, then please give it a try, I promise it won’t disappoint (≧∀≦) ! Upload schedule: Everyday! *Some images are originally from Pinterest, but the cover belongs to me.

KING OF THE WARRIORS

“Katakan padaku apa yang harus aku lakukan agar kau bersedia menjadi panglima perangku?” Raja Alventius memandang tajam pada sosok pria yang badannya tidak lebih tinggi darinya, namun lebih tegap dan berkharisma di antara jenderal-jenderal yang pernah ditemuinya. Pria itu, Rendevis Oldernys, hanya diam mematung. Ia tidak memberi jawaban apa pun. Ini adalah kesekian kalinya, dirinya kedatangan pembesar-pembesar kerajaan di wilayah utara. Kemampuannya yang tidak hanya dapat memahami bahasa manusia, tetapi juga hewan, tumbuhan dan alam ghaib, membuatnya menjadi rebutan kerajaan-kerajaan besar yang ingin menjadikan dirinya sebagai panglima perang mereka, untuk membantu mereka menjadi penguasa tunggal dunia. “Apa yang kau inginkan? Harta? Berapa banyak yang kau inginkan? Atau wanita? Aku akan memberikan gadis-gadis baru setiap harinya untuk memuaskan nafsumu. Atau kau ingin menjadi pemimpin para jenderal? Aku akan dengan mudah memberikannya padamu.” Bujuk rayu para pembesar itu terus saja dilontarkan agar pria gagah dan tampan itu bersedia bergabung bersama mereka. Lain hari, pemimpin dunia sihir datang bertamu dengan tujuan yang sama. Hingga mereka menawarkan ramuan keabadian kepada Rendevis. Namun, sikap pria itu tetap sama, tidak memberikan jawaban apa pun. Ia hanya diam mendengarkan layaknya seorang tabib yang mendengarkan keluh kesah pasiennya. “Apa yang harus kami lakukan agar kau bersedia bergabung dengan pasukan kami?” Raja Negeri Air tidak ketinggalan ikut membujuk Rendevis. “Tidak ada. Aku sama sekali tidak tertarik dengan semua tawaran kalian.” Jawaban singkat yang sama yang selalu diberikan setelah cukup lama dirinya menjadi pendengar setia pembesar-pembesar itu. “Silakan kalian pulang ke negeri kalian. Aku tidak akan ke luar dari tempat ini, kecuali keadaan yang sangat darurat terjadi di bumi ini.” Siapa sebenarnya Rendevis Oldernys? Keadaan darurat yang bagaimana yang dimaksud Rendevis? Siapa yang akan berhasil meminangnya menjadi panglima perang?
