Her fingers itched to tear it apart, to make this nightmare disappear. But deep down, she knew that wouldn’t change anything. “I don’t remember,” she whispered, more to herself than to him. “I don’t remember any of it.” Blake nodded as if he had expected this reaction. “That is expected. You had a lot to drink last night.” he fished out a phone from the back pocket of his trousers, opened it. “Here, this is us celebrating, after we got married last night,” he said, showing her a picture. Delilah’s breath caught in her throat as she stared at the photo. It was indeed her. “How?” she whispered, her voice barely audible. “I don’t remember any of this.” “It was a wild night,” he said softly. Perhaps she had married Blake because he was wealthy. That would be the only logical reason for her to make such a blunder. There was hope, she thought, as she clung to the possibility of salvaging something from this disaster. Turning to him, she forced a smile, “Is this your house? Are we in your house?” She asked, looking around the bedroom. Blake shook his head, “No. This is a hotel,” he said, and she nodded. “I see. It looks like quite an expensive hotel,” she observed, “What do you do for a living?” she asked, trying to keep her voice steady as she searched his eyes for any hint of affluence. Blake hesitated, his confident demeanor faltering for the first time. He looked away, rubbing the back of his neck. “I’m... in between jobs,” he stuttered, avoiding her gaze. Delilah’s heart sank, disappointment crashing over her like a wave. “In between jobs?” she echoed, her voice tinged with disbelief. Blake seemed to sense her dismay. “I know it doesn’t sound great,” he said quickly, trying to reassure her. “But I’m working on a few things. I just need a little more time.” “You’re jobless,” she muttered to herself as reality sunk in. “How did you pay for this room? For the wedding bands?” She asked, and he winced. “I didn’t. You did,” he said, and she collapsed on the bed. (PS: Cover photo isn’t mine. Credit to the real owner)

Romancing The Heavenly Demon

From the modern age, Namgoong Mir reincarnated into the chaotic land of the Murim. Born into an affluent martial arts family. Being the youngest son of the Murim’s Sword God and the most favorite grandson of the Murim Alliance’s leader. People would think that he is ecstatic that he’s now living the life of every martial arts geek in the world, but reality sucks, no matter what time and space you’re in. In the world where: -There’s no tissue paper to wipe your ass. -The mode of transportation is so bad that one’s brain ends up a scrambled egg on every ride. -There are not many entertainment materials to cure boredom. Namgoong Mir is in the middle, scratching the walls out of frustration. The martial arts world of Murim is no fun for games-loving, computer-addict otaku like him! This is why, for years, he spent his time fumbling on things and trying to recreate the brilliance of the modern world in this backward martial arts-centered world. The figureheads of the Namgoong family have nothing much to say about their eccentric youngest member. They just let Mir go and do his thing. Aside from their strong familial love for the young man, they benefit from Namgoong Mir’s creation as a whole. That is until Namgoong Mir created a start-up that would potentially ignite in the entire Murim. “I’m going to create a tabloid newspaper and our first target: the Heavenly Demon of the Sky Demon Cult.” The following day, a tabloid paper was circulating throughout the central plains. The eye-catching headlines concern the most powerful sect among all the demonic cults. “What is this? The Heavenly Demon is impotent?!” “The Divine Demon Martial Arts strips the user’s sexual desire as they reach their peak level of mastery. Is that true?” The entire land of Murim is boiling due to the unprecedented gossip that Namgoong Mir’s tabloid caused. Of course, the creator is happy with his success because he finally triggered the excitement of the Murim. But little did he know, this caused him to be kidnapped by the Heavenly Demon himself. “Did you just say I am impotent? Do you want to personally prove that?” The Heavenly Demon asked Namgoong Mir as he towered over the latter, naked and in full glory.
