Arc Chronicles Preview Chapter 2
I got a good reception on my first chapter for my new story, so I've decided to post the second here. I might post a third preview chapter, but no more than 3.Chapter IIIt took me a month before I accepted the fact that I was reincarnated. Or reborn, or whatever you wanted to call it. This wasn't some fever dream as I lay dying in a bus on the side of the road. I wasn't imagining this.I had become a baby. A freaking baby. A fate worse than death. Can you imagine it? Being fully aware of the world, being an adult, trapped in the body of an infant? My body wouldn't listen to me. I couldn't understand what my parents were saying and even if I could, I could not speak. When I tried speaking English, only gibberish came out.I couldn't eat solid food, my mother fed me from her tit. My mother was beautiful and I didn't know she was my mother in those first, few days, but I couldn't enjoy it. I was too hungry when she fed me. It felt like I was always hungry. I had died a virgin and this
Arc Chronicles Preview chapter 3
Okay, this will be the last preview chapter I release. I hope I've drummed up some interest for this story! Tomorrow, it's back to Arc ChroniclesChapter IIIWhen I was two years old, my family changed forever. My parents had been trying for years for another child and at last, they had her, a little girl named Vivienne. Though we were both combinations of our parents, she was the opposite of me: I had my mother's green eyes and my father's blonde hair. Vivienne had our mother's brunette hair and our father's blue eyes. It was a joyous occasion all around; I had been an only child in my last life, but now I had a sibling, a little sister.My parents doted on her and I fall in the same way. After my last life, I was eager to play the role of a big brother. I'd make sure nothing ever happened to her.A year later, our small family was blessed again and I was given a little brother. My parents named him Henri, and he looked nothing like us. He had a head full of black hair and eyes a bri
Arc Chronicles Last Preivew Chapter
Okay, I know I said last chapter, but I want to drum up interest, so one last chapter. Tomorrow arc chronicles returns, but with these four chapters, I hope you consider reading when I post this story on webnovel!Chapter IVThe end of my quiet, peaceful life came in the form of the Praetorian Guard. These days, they serve the ruling emperor or empress, but in my childhood, they protected and served the Aquroyan Senate.Until that moment, I had only seen legionnaires. No, I shouldn't call them that. The men that came to speak with my mother, who sometimes took her with them, weren't legionnaires. They were from the local garrison, not even adventurers. They had a few pieces of loose armor, but most of them wore cloth and rags. The weapons they had were rusted and old as if they had been left in the elements for years. Or they never got washed after a battle.I was out in the forest when they came. I was practicing swinging a metal sword. It was a few days until my twelfth birthday and
Arc Chronicles I'm not home, do I have this
Yesterday was supposed to be my lasy preview chapter, but I won't be home until tomorrow and that's where all my Arc Chronicles are. On my Laptop, at home, and since I didn't want to leave you all without a chapter today, I'll do one last previewChapter VWhen I came to, someone was leaning over it. My vision was blurry, so I thought it was Marcel at first. He had been screaming bloody murder as the Dread Lord did... Whatever it was the Dread Lord was want to do. The Dread Lord assured us that he needed Marcel's life for his spell, but maybe he was wrong? The persona above me was running their hands across my chest as if they were searching for wounds to heal.As my vision came, it wasn't my father who was leaning over me, but a boy. At least I thought it was a boy, but the face staring down at me was covered in so much grime and dirt that it was hard to tell. Nearly impossible to tell.The face looked excited at first but then frowned. Then it looked angry. Whoever it was spit in my
Arc Chronicles Calixte XII
Calixte XIINo, they weren't complete traditional robes. They looked like a combination of traditional Oyashimese robes and a modern suit. It was a taste look and an interesting one. All the staff at the Oyashimese embassy in Aquroya wore modern suits and clothes, but this man was different. It wasn't a bad look honestly, but the people of Europe still tended to see Asians as backward. I know my brother Xavier did and he was the Viceroy of Vietnam. The Oyashimese seemed to want to escape that association and quickly modernized; that was to say, westernize themselves, in the same way, the Japanese did in my first world.This means clothes seemed to undermine that effort. I couldn't imagine the imperial Oyashimese authorities would let him wear something like that if he was an ambassador to a European country. He might not be an ambassador now, but his colony bordered three different colonial powers, Whoever he was, the man was obviously important, so I would assume he would uphold the
Arc Chronicles Calixte XIII
Calixte XIII"Forgive me if I presume too much, but you seem... Acquainted." They seemed more than merely acquainted, they seemed close. Very close. I hope I wasn't overstepping my boundaries and assuming. What was that saying again? Assuming makes an ass out of you and me?Thankfully my assumption paid off and I didn't come out looking like an ass. The governor smiled. "Not at all, Your Highness. I have known Princess Kaya since she was born.""May I inquire as to the nature of your relationship?" I asked in the politest way that I could."Governor Tanaka is my uncle," Kaya said. "He's my father's brother.""I was under the impression that Tanaka was a family name," I said.Governor Tanaka nodded. "It is. And a common one at that.""I... Don't understand," I admitted."I don't blame you. I'm not talking about at the court very often," the governor admitted. "You might say that I'm the emperor's dirty little secret. You see, I am no longer a member of the imperial family.""You're not
Arc Chronicles Calixte
Calixte "I can see why you'd feel that way," I said. "Your father is kind. Certainly a lot kinder than mine." "Is the Emperor of Aquitaine so unkind?" Kaya asked. "He's an emperor. By his very nature, he is unkind." Whatever the emperor chose to do was the right choice. However, how he acted was the best way to work. That was the nature of emperors. They were the highest authority and how they chose to act was the best way to go forward. "My father is a kind man and he was born to be emperor." "Your father is an enigma. A strange creature draping himself in the cloak of an emperor." "I wouldn't go that far." I shrugged. Her father was the odd one out. He didn't act how an emperor should act. "Your father is the strange one out. If I'm to be completely honest with you, Princess Kaya, I'm jealous." "Jealous? Of what? The strange father out?" "He might be the strange one out, but emperors aren't good men by nature. Absolute power absolutely corrupts, or so the saying goes." "Wh
Arc Chronicles Euphema
Euphemia"According to the rumors, and that's all that I have to work with, your highness, but the rumors say that House Frey are criminals.""Criminals?""Indeed. If you've studied the history of House Frey, the very first Frey lord was born a mere commoner. He was a privateer in our war against Britannia three hundred years ago.""He worked for the throne as a privateer. Surely that doesn't brand him as a criminal?""If that was all, I would agree with you. Though the age of privates and privateers has since passed, in his time he was answering the thrones call. The war ended a few years after that first call was put out and the first Lord Frey couldn't bear to part with his new lifestyle. When the war came to an end, the first Lord Frey became a pirate."Had it not been but for a quirk of fate, he would have lived and died as one. He was close to being captured by the Britannian authorities. It was to his fortune that the pirate captain Frey preyed on more than merchant ships. He w
