VKBoyI wasn't planning on writing this chapter today, but because of the overwhelming and humbling support from reader Costel Miliu who rose to the first position among the voters, I decided to write this chapter tonight so I could thank him for his support on a novel that hasn't been updated recently. Truly, thanks a lot for your support, Costel. It means a lot. Also, to readers Stephen, Kyle, Olaitan and Selingahilary who are the readers I've been noticing and have remembered... I'm currently focusing on finishing the ongoing novels. Once some of those novels are taken care of, I'll begin to post chapters often for this novel. Until then, I'll try my best to post a chapter once every few days. Just so you know, this novel hasn't been abandoned. I've already planned all the arcs, and only writing is remaining, so please bear with me a little longer.

WHIT 260 - SEARCH
Nole was completely knocked out from Gossini’s attack. It wasn’t with sheer power that she knocked him out, but she just struck him hard enough to force all the air out of his lungs and also to send a sudden shock to his brain. All this resulted in Nole losing his consciousness.Gossini grabbed him by his foot and tossed him to the edge of the pool, onto the land.“H-He’s the reason Edgar was acting that way,” Fabby quickly said. “Yeah, that’s probably the case. There was no way my little brother would have tried to peep on women. He’s not that kind of a guy.”“But you definitely got angry at him for just that reason, though,” Gossini softly said.“U-Uh, well, I was just taken by shock, and…” Fabby didn’t know what to say to cover up. “Anyway, it doesn’t matter now because we know that this dwarf is the real peeper! Edgar must be fighting him because of that. What do you think we should do with him?”“If it’s up to me, I’ll just off him,” Gossini indifferently said.“What?” Fabby was
WHIT 261 - NIGHT FALLS
About seven years ago, in a small village named Uvajed.A young girl and a younger boy were walking together, carrying wood and some vegetables and wheatgrass on their backs. Both had green hair, and the boy’s arms were tanned, because he usually spent a lot of time playing outdoors, but the other parts of the body were fair, though not as much as his sister. The girl was wearing simple clothes and a small jasmine garland in her hair.“Let’s go to the seashore again this weekend, Fabs,” the boy said, sounding excited.“No.”“Huh? Why?”“I can’t swim against those monstrous waves like you,” she said. “They scare me.”“I’ll teach you.”“No thanks. I’m fine with swimming in shallow waters.” Besides, the reason she always accompanied him was because she was afraid of something bad happening to him, and also she could fetch some herbs and flowers growing near the shore, though she hadn’t gathered much that day.“Ouch!” an ant bit on the boy’s foot. He was about to stoop down, but his siste
WHIT 262 - THE NIGHTMARE
She couldn’t believe her ears. (This has to be a dream.) She thought and pinched herself. But nothing changed.“However, I’m not sure if things go so well,” he kept talking. “You used to be the most beautiful woman in the town, but who’d have thought that in just two years, you’d have turned into a pig? There’s no way he’s going to like you now. But if you slim down in a year or two, then you can still—”“Pravash, stop. This isn’t funny at all.” She bit the inside of her cheek, trying to cope with all the unpleasantness developing.“That’s why…” he put his hand on her shoulder, “I think it’s better to let Fabby do the job.”She was absolutely stunned to hear that and kept staring at him in stunned silence.“If it’s her, then we might even be paid in extra—”BAM~!“Enough!” she punched him in the chest, taking him by surprise. “Don’t say another word, or I might kill—” Just then her eyes enlarged. “Y-Your heart…”“Tch, you realized it…” he grabbed her throat. “But you think you can kil
WHIT 263 - THORNS AND THISTLES I
The days after the nightmarish night, Edgar and Fabby had seen quite many things that they’d never even imagined were possible.After they escaped Uvajed, they had to roam the streets and eat spoils. Mornings were rough, but they were nothing compared to the nights when beggars and orphans fought for sleeping spots on the street. But that wasn’t all. The night patrol officers targeted children, especially male children and snatched them away for the night. Fabby and Edgar were on constant run for many days and nights without stopping, hiding at various places. The sad reality struck them very hard.The people who were supposed to protect them were so cruel in their ways that these siblings spent every minute shivering. Even though they crossed different villages and towns, the officers that targeted boys at night didn’t change. In fact, they came to know that most patrol officers who get posted during the nights were those interested in boys and generally abused them for years. Be it
WHIT 264 - THORNS AND THISTLES II
Months turned to years.Even though working in the fields had become a daily habit, so did the body pains. If not feet, then legs; if not legs, then back; if not back, then something else in the body took the turn. And by the time they got home, they were pretty tired, yet they wouldn’t be able to eat what they had produced or found.They were only given a limited amount of food such as corn or grains so they could make soup and live with it. The same plain soup with no vegetables in them whatsoever waited for them every night. And they were not paid anything else for their labor, for they were forced to work for the rest of their lives. There was no contract. Nothing. They were pretty much treated like cattle, or maybe even worse, with the only difference being their ability to talk. No matter how they were treated, they still worked hard, for most of them had reasons, be it their children and families.Fabby had Edgar, and Edgar had Fabby. Everyone had someone else they were willing
WHIT 265 - LOVE AND DUTY
Coming back to the present. The eagle had no idea who Edgar was, so Fabby had to do all the work except for flying. “Where is he?” She was worried for many reasons. The eagle even flew over the colosseum grounds, and she shouted for him, “Are you there, Eddie?” “Who’s that?” some masters and disciples wondered as she wasn’t clearly visible from below. “How rude of her to be flying over this place when the competition is still going on?” “He’s not here, either,” Fabby told the eagle to keep flying. As she kept looking around, she noticed someone bathing in an open pond. Just when she looked at him, he also looked up. She remembered his face mask. This was the same guy she met in a cave not long ago. Numo was not wearing a shirt right now, and his body was pristine white. It wasn’t muscular, but it still looked athletic and toned. It was very attractive, especially because he was a tall man. “Ahem,” Fabby looked away. After the eagle flew out of his sight, Numo continued rubbing
WHIT 266 - PERSONAL MISSION
“AHHH!” The siblings cried out in horror, mostly because of the pure shock value. Their eyes sprang out of the sockets. They totally didn’t expect that the eagle would do such a thing.Edgar was about to use his skill, but Fabby quickly said, “No, wait.”“Huh? Wait for what?” Edgar asked her back as winds viciously whipped at their faces.“Just wait,” she replied. As both of them kept getting closer to the ground, Edgar’s heart raced fast. “Screw this. I’m-” he was saying, but then the eagle suddenly came swooping down and caught both of them when they were about 100ft close to the ground and took them away with him.Edgar and Fabby held onto its talons so they wouldn’t fall.The eagle stopped by another mountain top and acted as if everything was okay.“You think I’ll thank you for saving our asses, you shitty bird!” Fabby punched the eagle hard in the face. “I thought I was going to die! You were the cause for scaring me near to death.”Even Edgar looked angry. His heart jumped in
WHIT 01 - VALLEY OF VIPERS [VOL 01 - FROM DARKNESS TO LIGHT]
Beyond Erroneous Fields. On one of the northern cliffs in the Shushui mountain range. “Arei Grysban… The vice master of the Celestial Temple. Look what’s become of you,” a man in a black cloak held a beating heart with a few of his eight arms like a spider crab gripping a sea star. “Except for that useless beggar’s plate, you’ve lost everything, even your own heart.” “Your senior met his maker, but for you, it’s still not too late,” another man in a black cloak and bloody hands was rolling a ring on his fingers. The new and old stains of blood on his cloak stood out more than his unusually large canine teeth and animalistic eyes. “We couldn’t find what we were looking for in your ring. We know he passed on the secret of the temple to you. Share it with us, and then the giants of Gretta, the twelve supreme families, and even the Numbnil Belt can be conquered, and we’ll rule the world together.” The two men in black cloaks were eyeing a woman in white, with half of her torso missing.
