Around The America To Win The Vote Historical

Decietful Allure (Around the fireplace series)

The light of the fireplace cast long shadows on the wall, the fire reflected in the eyes of the woman sitting on the couch with a blanket over her shoulders. She had a bittersweet smile on her face as her mind traveled to the past days, nights long passed, nights she shared with her family when she was a kid. Memories she hoped to bring alive if possible. First story: a story adaptation of a popular folklore in Nigeria; The Princess and the half man; She had sworn on her mother's grave never to be blinded by emotions. But It'd seem she took after her mom in that aspect after all. Throwing all caution to the wind just for a man. She had thought she was different from the rest, leave it to reality to smack her back to her senses. Her feelings for her dad was complicated, she could say she hated him, but that was not quite true, no matter what, he was still her father. The one who pampers and gives in to her every whim. She knew it was partly guilt and the fact she was his only daughter out of a battalion of boys that contributed to his attitude towards her. But so what, she didn't care much for affection, all she had cared for was getting what she wanted, and that had been true about her, until now. Authors note: As a kid my dad will always sit us down at night, outside, in the darkness and tell us the most delightful stories of kingdoms long passed, Princesses and princes, magical creatures, much to the delight of us kids. But there's not much of that nowadays. So I want to share these delightful stories with everyone and I hope by doing this, these stories will not get lost in the sands of time. Thank you, have a nice read.

The promise to save the villain

A peaceful life without any bloodshed, that’s the only dream left for Mr. Kim, a former gangster. Using his savings, he bought a nice apartment and started running a small bookstore. As everything seemed to be going smoothly, he met a high schooler named Ah Yeon, the one who was destined to turn his peaceful life upside down. Learning about her background and feeling pity for the child, who been suffering from abuse and bullying, he offered her a job at his bookstore. Over time, they grew closer, almost like family. Reading was her hobby, and because of that, she often recommended novels to him. One of those novels was 'The Death Note'—a romantic yet revenge-filled story, full of kidnapping, abuse, killing, mafia... and it all revolved around three main characters. Initially uninterested, he picked it up on a boring day. When she saw him reading the novel, she asked him a curious question. “From the main three characters, who would you save, if you ever got the chance?” “No one…” he replied without much thought. “What? Why?” “How can someone save a fictional character? Use your brain.” “I know it’s just a story; that’s why I’m asking as if. What if we transmigrate to another world and get the chance? If I could, I would save the villain. He is just like me..." Her eyes reflected sorrow as she said it. Few days later, news reached to Mr. Kim that the girl had committed suicide after murdering her stepfather. That day, for some reasons he kept the book with him, but the next day, he was dumbfounded to find himself in the body of a young girl who had been tortured terribly. Slowly, Kim realized the world was strikingly similar to the novel, The Death Note. However, there was no mention of his new name Yoon-Jung. So, he concludes it as an extra with no importance. To escape from the terrible circumstances, he reverted to being the old Kim he once was, but fate give him a new life that completely opposite to the one he led before. Few years later, his peaceful life got an unexpected turn when he met him, the villain, Ah Yuan. He reminded him of Ah Yeon. From the depths of his heart, Kim wished to save him. But in a world where he was struggling to survive himself, could he truly save Ah Yuan from his tragic fate?

Win My Husband Over to Find My Child

[COMPLETED] ---------- After the sudden death of her boyfriend, Leslie Song has been single-handedly raising her precious little daughter Calliope. It’s a difficult life, but it’s a happy one. A freak accident puts an end to that. As Leslie lies dying on the road, watching Calliope breathe her last, she curses her helplessness. Calliope’s crochet fox seems to hear her. It opens its mouth and asks, “Do you want to see your daughter again? If so, follow me. Her soul has already left for another world.” Leslie agrees. That’s the last thing she remembers before losing consciousness. When she opens her eyes again, she finds herself—or rather, her soul—standing beside her unconscious body on a hospital bed. “How is this supposed to help me find Calliope!” she exclaims. “This is not your body. Your body is dead. This is my original host, Charlene Li,” explains the toy fox. “You can possess her body to find Calliope, but if you do, you must finish her uncompleted mission for her.” “And what mission is that?” “To marry the second most eligible CEO in the city.” ‘This,’ Leslie concludes, ‘is a scam.’ But she has no other choice. ********** Meanwhile, the second most eligible bachelor in the city, Calix Xu, is patting himself on the back for thwarting his grandmother’s attempts to marry him off. After exhausting all of his tricks and excuses, he has resorted to marrying the comatose daughter of the Li family. Calix smiles, pleased with himself, "Aren't I smart? Grandmother can do nothing now." But… why is he seeing his newly-wedded wife hovering beside her own body? Before he can react, his wife—the moving one—floats towards him. "Husband! Help me find my child!" “Your child?” Calix asks weakly before doing the only reasonable thing he can do in such a situation. He faints. ---------- WSA 2024 entry!

America in 1430

Năm 2025, trong một sự kiện chưa từng có trong lịch sử, toàn bộ lãnh thổ Hoa Kỳ hiện đại, với 50 bang, hàng trăm triệu dân, và tất cả cơ sở hạ tầng công nghệ tiên tiến, bất ngờ bị xuyên không về năm 1440 – thời điểm mà thế giới vẫn còn ngập chìm trong các vương triều phong kiến, giáo hội toàn năng, và chiến tranh liên miên. Khi mặt trời mọc ở thế giới mới, những người Mỹ nhận ra họ không còn thuộc về thế giới mà họ từng biết. Thay vào đó, họ bị bao quanh bởi những vương quốc nhỏ đang tranh giành quyền lực, những binh đoàn hiệp sĩ bọc giáp sáng loáng, và một hệ thống tư duy hoàn toàn xa lạ với kỷ nguyên dân chủ và khoa học. Thách thức trước mắt là sinh tồn. Nước Mỹ – với sức mạnh quân sự khổng lồ, công nghệ vượt trội, và dân số đa dạng – phải đối mặt với các vương quốc trung cổ hiếu chiến, đồng thời phải tự vấn liệu họ nên trở thành kẻ chinh phục hay người bảo hộ. Những vấn đề nội tại như chia rẽ chính trị, xung đột sắc tộc, và khủng hoảng niềm tin càng làm phức tạp tình hình, khiến việc duy trì một quốc gia thống nhất trở nên khó khăn hơn bao giờ hết. Khi các cường quốc như Anh, Pháp, và Đế chế La Mã Thần thánh bắt đầu nhận ra sự hiện diện của Hoa Kỳ, thế giới trung cổ bước vào một kỷ nguyên hoàn toàn mới. Nhưng liệu một quốc gia hiện đại có thể tồn tại trong thế giới cổ đại, hay họ sẽ bị nghiền nát bởi sự khác biệt văn hóa và bản chất tàn khốc của lịch sử?
