MadRevenantAuthor Note Hello, you might have noticed that I haven't updated for a long time. Unfortunately, I haven't been feeling well and wasn't able to update. Hopefully, I can get back into the swing of things again. I'm debating between wrapping it up soon or go with my original plan, but we will see. On another note, there are several other news that I want to share. First, I want to inform everyone that I will be rewriting/editing Rise of the Demon King: Caleb Gonzales's Rat Race. I will try to keep everyone up to date on when the first book will be released here and on Facebook. If anyone's interested in beta reading for me, please contact me through Facebook since I have no idea how to contact anyone on here. Second, I'm thinking about redoing the covers again. Thank you everyone for your patience.

Rise of the Commoner: Johnny Burns's The Lost Heir Chapter 76: Meeting Up With Frank
Johnny watched from a distance as people hurried to the building he was just in. While he thought his plan had worked perfectly despite the changes he had to make to them, he still worried that something might go wrong. His original plan had been to create a fire strong enough to incinerate a body, but then he realized a problem with that idea.If there was no body, then they might be suspicious that he was still alive. He needed to at least leave something behind to convince them that he had died there, which was easier said than done. Honestly, the plan depended a lot on them not catching on or being suspicious. Johnny couldn't be sure if they were listening to him, so he had to act as normal as possible.He had made sure to pick one of the scummiest places filled with irredemable people so he wouldn't feel guilty about anyone dying. His healing power was also a huge help in altering the body. It was actually quite broken, since he didn't think it could be used like that. Of course,
Rise of the Commoner: Johnny Burns's The Lost Heir Chapter 77: Meeting Frank's Sister
Johnny stared at the young girl in disbelief as Frank said, "This is my little sister."When Frank said she was disabled, he didn't think it was this bad. He honestly didn't know how she was still alive. She literally didn't have anything below her knees or elbows. Where her eyes should be were empty sockets. Johnny would have thought he was looking at some kind of fake body if he hadn't seen how Frank treated her and the fact that she was breathing."Do you think you can heal her?" FRank asked.Looking at FRank's hopeful expression, Johnny redid his assessment of FRank. He was just as messed up as everyone else. Johnny could see why the rest of the family would want to ditch her. It was impossible for her to live without any help, given her body's condition. He was sure they did try to find people with healing powers to help her but eventually gave up when nothing worked.It would be kinder just to let her die instead of living such a hellish existence.
Rise of the Commoner: Johnny Burns's The Lost Heir Chapter 78: Frank’s Sister’s Background
"What?" Johnny blurted out.While FRank had warned him ahead of time before dropping that secret, Johnny still didn't expect to hear she had been a mermaid. When Frank said inhuman, Johnny really thought he meant something like an extra limb or fused body parts. Those were cases he had heard about in the media. Fins and a tail were way off the mark."I know it's hard to imagine, but it's true," Frank said.There was no reason for Frank to lie to him, so everything he just said had to be true. However, it was still hard for Johnny to swallow. He was now getting any idea why she was missing her limbs. It wasn't a pretty image and was definitely a good reason to stay away from them since nothing good would come from staying by their side."You've probably put the pieces together, but yes. My family removed the fins and tail to make her seem normal. There are plenty of people without limbs. She would still draw attention, but it wouldn't be as bad as if she kept them," Frank said.It soun
Rise of the Commoner: Johnny Burns's The Lost Heir Chapter 79: Chatting With Katherine (1)
When Johnny opened his eyes, he was momentarily confused by his surroundings. IT certainly didn't look like his apartment. IT was way too nice for him to be able to afford and wasn't his style. Then his memories from the day before came rushing in as he abruptly sat up. That's right. He had faked his death and had gone to Frank, who hid him at his place until Johnny figured out his next move.Johnny got to his feet and grimaced down at his clothes. Even though it was brand new and a gift from Frank, he had worn it for far too long. He checked the drawers to see if Frank had left him more clothes to change into. A pile of brand new clothes with the tags still on greeted him. Picking up one of them, he glanced at the price tag and instantly regretted it. He would never be able to pay it back.Forcing himself to forget he saw the price and act as if he hadn't seen anything, he cut the tags. As he was about to change, he paused and took a moment to smell himself. His nose wrinkled in disg
Rise of the Commoner: Johnny Burns's The Lost Heir Chapter 80: Chatting With Katherine (2)
Johnny found himself shutting his mouth and staring into Katherine's calm expression. That was pretty depressing to hear, but it was probably better that she was being realistic about it. Optimism could only get someone to go so far. He would have thought she was too naive or sheltered if she kept holding on despite everything that had happened to her.Placing a hand on her head, he tried to feel his healing power work on her. Unfortunately, just like before, he couldn't tell if it was having any effect on her. It would be nice if his system showed up to explain what was going on. He couldn't help but feel awkward touching her head without any clue if his power was doing anything.After several moments, he awkwardly asked, "How do you feel?""I'm not sure," she said.That wasn't helpful in the slightest, and he asked, "Do you not feel anything at all?""I do, but it's hard to explain," she said as she frowned.Well, he supposed it was better than it not working at all. Unfortunately,
Rise of the Commoner: Johnny Burns's The Lost Heir Chapter 81: Someone at the Door
"You two are getting along," Frank said as he stepped into the room.Johnny and Katherine looked away from the TV to stare at him as the former said, "Hey, sorry for bothering your TV."Frank waved off Johnny's concern. "I don't mind. I did leave without saying a word to you.""Brother, welcome home," Katherine said as Frank went to hug her.Watching the siblings interact, Johnny wondered if he could have had something like that. He quickly shook those thoughts out of his head, as there was no point in thinking about what ifs. It wouldn't change a single thing, and it would only make him miserable. Well, he was more miserable than he was now. Frank and Katherine broke apart, and the former turned to Johnny."I assume that you already watched the news," Frank said.Nodding his head, Johnny said, "Yeah. It was hard to miss."Frank winced. "I really didn't want either of you to find out about that.""It's not your fault. Neither of us expected it to be on the news," Johnny said.Frank ga
Rise of the Commoner: Johnny Burns's The Lost Heir Chapter 82: Discussion
Suddenly, Johnny slipped on a puddle. As he waved his arms around, trying to keep his balance, his mind whirled with questions. Where had the puddle come from? He was pretty sure it hadn't been there the first time. If it had, how did he miss it the first time? It was a pretty big puddle. When he finally regained his balance, he froze as he felt someone behind him."Who are you and what are you doing here?" Dorothy demanded.Well, that explained the puddle. She must have created the puddle after she passed by. Johnny wasn't sure how he didn't pick up on her plan when she passed by. There hadn't been a hint that she had planned to smoke him out in her mind. Had she really been able to keep it out of her head, or had he let his guard down and failed to catch it?"Answer me," Dorothy said as she poked his back with a gun.That was a bit unexpected. Johnny hadn't thought she would be carrying a gun. He couldn't recall her carrying one in the test, but the point was moot. If he didn't say
Rise of the Commoner: Johnny Burns's The Lost Heir Chapter 83: Changing Leadership
Johnny and Frank stared at her gobsmacked. Did she really just say what they thought she said? No, there was no way Johnny could believe it. It was such an outlandish idea that he had to be hallucinating. Why would she suggest making him the head of an enemy family? It made absolutely no sense. They didn't even know each other. This version of Dorothy only knew him as a stranger.It would have been a different story if this was the Dorothy from the test. Then she would have a good reason to put him in the seat. They knew each other and had even been engaged to each other. If he became the head of the family, then she would have a large influence over the family too as his wife. However, none of them mattered in the real world.Frank was the first to recover as he asked, "Dorothy, what do you think?""I'm thinking that this is the perfect time to overthrow the family, and what better way than to place someone like him in the seat?" she said."I doubt it'll be that easy. Even if we some
