Stranded Stranger Chapter Nine: Attack and Defend
"Aren't we going to take a quest today, brother?" Ash asked. He was so excited to take on a quest and fight monsters in the forbidden forest. It had been a week since the last time they had a quest.He had been practicing these days, but he had made no progress at all. He wondered why he was given this power that he couldn't really manipulate. What'd happen to him if there was an enemy and he still couldn't use his power?"How I wish I could master this skill soon." Ash sighed deeply. Whenever he summons the wind, it causes trouble. The amount of elements was always too much for him to control. How could he defeat the demon lord who killed his parents if that's all he can do?"How about you, brother? Have you found out what your power is?" Ash asked."No, I don't have any idea about my power yet. But I hope I can find it out soon so that I can fight the demon lord along with those adventurers," Shawn replied."That's hard for you, brother. I may not know how it feels to have no power,
Stranded Stranger Chapter Ten: King Orc the Great
"We're finally here!" Ava panted as she jumped down from her broomstick, and so did Shawn. "Where's my brother?" she asked, looking around.She saw him ahead, sitting on the ground with Alice and the old man. They were in a vast grassland. She walked towards them and noticed that his face was full of bruises, as if he had been in a shootout."I told you not to do that, Ash!" Ava scolded. "Look what happened to your face!" She was so worried that she couldn't stop herself from rebuking him."Don't worry, sister!" Ash smiled, showing that he lost one of his fore teeth, making him look like a badass anime kid. "That was a great rehearsal for me.""Great rehearsal?" Ava asked angrily. "After what happened to your face, you'll call it a rehearsal. Where's your brain, Ash? Have you lost it?""I'm sorry to interrupt, but we don't have much time left, guys!" Alice interrupted when she saw something beyond the grassland. "The monsters are approaching this way.""Ash, please don't fight for now
Stranded Stranger Chapter Eleven: Wedding
Ava had been slaying the orcs one by one, but it seemed like there was no end in sight; they kept coming back. Good thing that she was a non-Mana user. But she was concerned about the old man.She thought that if she could only ask for Allen's help, it wouldn't be difficult to subjugate these monsters, but she also knew that he was busy with his own life."Master, I think we should go back now. Their number isn't decreasing at all," Ava suggested worriedly."You're right. Let's leave them to the other adventurers. I already asked for assistance from the guild, but it seems like everyone is busy," the old man replied."Let's go back to the capital. I want to know how's the condition there," Ava said."How about Ash and Shawn?" the old man asked. "Where are they?""I asked Alice to rescue them," Ava replied. "They might have gone back already. Can you use teleportation?""Don't underestimate your mentor's power," the old man replied, and they suddenly disappeared.The old man has been A
Stranded Stranger Chapter Twelve: Spade Kingdom
If it weren't for the Land of Dusk, Shawn would never marry an ugly orc. But that was the only way to save their kingdom from those monsters.He knew it could ruin his relationship with Ava, but he could do nothing—he was forced to do it after all, even if it was against his will. Besides, he didn't know what could have happened to him if he refused King Orc's offer.Shawn hurriedly got inside the adventurer's guild. He wasn't thinking about the hundred gold coins anymore; all he wanted was to explain everything to Ava, but she wasn't there.The adventurers were drinking as he arrived. Most of them were unaware of the whole story. All they knew was that they won, not the reason why the monsters retreated, especially the orcs."What did you do to my apprentice, Shawn?" the old man asked as he walked towards him."I,I,I," Shawn stuttered, seeing the old man's glare at him. "Please let me explain everything.""No," the old man replied. His fierce stare gradually turned into calm, amazeme
Stranded Stranger Chapter Thirteen: Grand Escape
Ava could hear her own heartbeat as she entered the enemies' territory. She hesitated, unsure whether to press on in the darkness or turn back, feeling uneasy about the situation.However, she didn't want to disappoint the old man by going back without accomplishing anything. Determined, she chose to press on until she stood in front of a forest. Without a map, she had no idea where she was heading.A moment later, a mysterious figure emerged from the shadows, approaching Ava with silent steps. The person remained elusive, concealed by a hood. It came closer, until Ava recognized who it was."Allen?" Ava muttered. "What are you doing here in the Spade Kingdom? Shouldn't you be in the Forbidden Forest?" Ava asked curiously."It's a long story, Ava. But would you like to come with me to my house, have some coffee, and talk about this matter?" Allen invited politely."I'm sorry, Allen, but—" Ava wanted to refuse, but she didn't manage to finish her sentence when Allen interrupted."No, i
Stranded Stranger Chapter Fourteen: Being a Hero
As he opened his eyes, Shawn found himself beside Ava, lying without a shirt. He didn't know how he got his hands inside Ava's undershirt. He had been squeezing her breasts, and he thought he was just dreaming all night."Let it go, let it go!" Shawn screamed in his mind, but his hand wouldn't follow his orders. He was trying to resist the temptation, but the size and softness wouldn't let him escape.Slowly, Ava opened her eyes when she felt something was wrong. Her face grew red after seeing Shawn's hands squeeze her breasts. "What—what are you doing?" She tried to ask in a normal tone."I'm sorry, Ava." But before Shawn could say those words, Ava had already stood up, and again, the shape of her palm left a reddish mark on his face as she slapped him without saying anything. It created a loud blast that pierced the silence of the morning."You pervert! Never ever sleep beside me again!" Ava shouted before she walked out of the room. What a fantastic morning he had given her.Shawn
Stranded Stranger Chapter Fifteen: Looking for Answers
Shawn and Ash were heading to the Forbidden Forest when they met some adventurers who were also going there. Their party was composed of three men and two women. Shawn could identify their roles by just looking at them.Usually, in order to be called a party, a group must have a magician, a guardian, a healer, an assassin, and a tamer. The most important role is that of the healer, someone who heals his or her wounded members, which is necessary for their survival.But when it comes to assault, an assassin is much needed—someone who can move swiftly and inflict heavy damage against the enemy without getting noticed or caught.The protector of the party is known as the guardian. He possessed heavy armor, so one must be strong enough to carry on the equipment in order to be called a guardian.Magicians are commonly known as the most intelligent of the party. They use magic and mana to deal damage in either chanting or magic circle ways. Magicians are the most common people in this world
Stranded Stranger Chapter Sixteen: Skylanders
It had already been a week since Shawn started to look for the demon lord, but he hadn't made any progress at all. The Diamond Kingdom itself was huge, so it was possible that one of these creatures had an idea that would give him a clue.Some creatures told him to stop looking for the demon lord because he would be attacking them after all. They told him that he should be prepared for what could happen instead.However, those words didn't discourage Shawn; they even fueled his interest in continuing what he was doing. He knew that once the demon lord transformed into a dragon known as Boris, it would become invincible.Although he wasn't there when the tragedy happened to have killed Ava's parents, Shawn didn't have a plan to witness the same event again. He didn't want to hear the scream of every creature, asking for help, but he could do nothing.Ava noticed that Shawn disappeared every day without telling her where he was going. She didn't want to act like a mother to him, watchin

Chapter Forty-nine: Disappearance
After an hour or two, the teacher named Selene Franca finally opened her eyes, and the first person she saw was a girl with curly black hair and golden eyes, sitting beside her. She slowly stood up and started asking a lot of questions."Who are you? Where am I? What happened? What time is it?" Selene asked continuously."Calm down, ma'am. Let's answer your questions one by one. I'm Ava, your student. You've fainted in the morning, and you've been asleep for almost five hours," Ava replied kindly."Did I?" Selene asked, showing a confused face, as she had no idea what really happened, as if she had amnesia and forgot even her own name.Selene held her head firmly. Her face contorted in discomfort, and her brows furrowed deeply as she clenched her jaw, fighting against the throbbing pain radiating from her temples."Are you okay, ma'am?" Ava asked worriedly, although she could already see the answer in her facial expression. "You shouldn't force yourself for now. Just rest for a while.

Chapter Forty-eight: Demonic Possession
Regular classes have resumed right after the disappearance of the monsters. As usual, Shawn woke up early in the morning to prepare for school. He did his casual routine: taking a bath, wearing his uniform, combing his hair, having breakfast, and he was finally ready to go."Good luck, son! Do your best at school!" Shiela said, seeing her son off. "Don't stay outside late at night, okay?" Although she wanted to be a little loose with her son because the monsters were already gone, she couldn't be complacent."Don't worry, mom. Rest assured, I won't stay outside at night," Shawn replied, showing his charming smile.Shiela thought that Shawn looked like his father when he was young, especially their facial features—his high nose, black hair, brown eyes, and the shape of his face were all inherited from his father."You should go now before you'll be late," Shiela said.Shawn smiled at his mother before leaving, as he wasn't that young anymore to kiss her. Shiela watched him walk away, w

Chapter Forty-seven: Shindig
Ava was in a hurry when she heard from Shawn that Emma and Leo were coming tonight. She wanted to prepare the most delicious food she could cook in order to celebrate their victory and also to thank them for saving the life of someone she loved. It wouldn't be good if they couldn't show any hospitality, especially if their visitors traveled from far away."Oh! Where are you going?" The old man asked curiously when he saw Ava rushing outside the house with a basket.Ava stopped at the porch and told the old man about Emma and Leo coming tonight, and she was going to the market to buy some ingredients to cook something delicious since their fridge was empty."Do you need help?" The old man asked. "You can bring Ash with you if you need help. He's just playing games on your phone anyway.""Okay. Where is he?" Ava asked. She remembered the day when Shawn carried all those things they brought from the market. Sometimes, she would suddenly laugh when she remembered those moments that turned

Chapter Forty-six: Invitation
There were a lot of things that Shawn wanted to ask Leo and Emma, such as how's their life in this world, if they were already married, and if they were planning to have children, but it seemed like they were in a hurry, so he let them go and decided to go back too.Walking down the road, Shawn was looking down on his feet, as if he were counting his steps, while his mind was wandering. All this time, he has been dreaming of having a safe and peaceful life with Ava. However, even though those monsters were already gone, there was another problem, as Ava was acting weird recently.Shawn's thoughts shattered when he heard someone calling his name. As he raised his head, he saw an angel smiling ahead of him. It was none other than his beloved girl."Ava?" Shawn whispered beneath his breath."Shawn!" Ava shouted while running towards Shawn. She stopped in front of him, gasped for breath, and suddenly hugged him. "I'm glad you're okay. I'm so worried about you.""Oh yeah," Shawn replied no

Chapter Forty-five: New Companions
When they arrived at Charlotte's house, Ava realized something. She shouldn't have let Shawn fight those monsters alone. How selfish of her to hate him despite the truth that he was always helping her. She knew she wouldn't survive in this world without his help."Please bring me back, master!" Ava requested. "I don't want to leave Shawn. It will be my mistake if he dies, and I will regret it for the rest of my life if that happens.""I'm sorry, Ava," the old man apologized. "But I can't bring you back because my mana is low. Shawn also told me to keep you safe here, so you should rest and recharge.""But master—" Ava was about to argue, but the old man interrupted."You don't have to worry too much, Ava. Shawn is the strongest among us. He even defeated the demon lord, remember? So, you better go to bed and rest." The old man tried his best to convince Ava so that she wouldn't go back impulsively like a rebellious girl.Despite what the old man told her, Ava still couldn't relax as s

Chapter Forty-four: Disastrous Outing
The sight of the ocean waves was quite relaxing. There were a lot of people around, doing aquatic activities such as swimming, surfing, kayaking, snorkeling, rafting, and many more. Everyone was busy doing their own thing and enjoying their lives at the moment.Some people were just sitting and lying on the seashore, covering themselves with white sand, and wearing sunglasses and sun protection to avoid sunburn. Others were playing games, both passive and active, such as chess inside their tents and beach volleyball outside.The old man, on the other hand, was lying under the shade of a huge umbrella, covering him from the scorching sunlight, with a bottle of beer beside him. He was glad that he joined them, for he realized that he would never get the same moment twice."What a breathtaking view!" Ava exclaimed as she walked towards Shawn, who was waiting for her. "This is such a wonderful place to relax and take a break from our mundane routine and stress of everyday life. I wouldn't

Chapter Forty-three: Overpowered
Shawn, Alice, Ava, Ash, and the old man arrived right in front of the forest, where those portals were located. This place looked familiar to them, as if they had seen this forest before. Then they remembered the forbidden forest in another world."It's impossible that not only us but also places that belonged to our world are also transported here. It could take a lot of power to transport an entire place to another world, and there could be a lot of side effects as well," the old man said."Our enemy or enemies must be very powerful, like a god who could create an entire planet," Alice added."But we don't have time to worry about that now," Shawn said. "Let us do what we can and stop worrying about things that are out of our control. Let's do our best until the rest!""Shawn is right," Ava agreed. "We are sent into this world together with these monsters, so it's our responsibility to restore peace and bring things back to where they were supposed to be.""You surely have big burde

Chapter Forty-two: Hidden Portals
Ava and the old man appeared in a forest where nothing else could be heard except for the chirping of the birds and falling leaves, but that peace disappeared and was replaced by the loud sounds of monsters marching towards the city."It seems like you're right, master. Those monsters are coming from here," Ava said, hiding behind a huge tree with the old man while peeking at the monsters."Do you see that thing?" The old man pointed at the shining hole set in the bushes. "There are probably more than that.""What do you mean by 'more than that', master?" Ava asked curiously. "Are you telling me that there are other portals in this forest?""I'm not so sure, but seeing so many monsters coming out of this forest, it's possible that there are more than this. It's dangerous if they see us, so we better go back before they could sense our presence. We can only fight them by using heavy damage equipment, and I'm still trying to find out where I can buy those equipments," the old man said.

Chapter Forty-one: Something Important
Inside the living room, Shiela and Lyon were having a conversation about the giants that attacked their city, as well as those heroes who came to save the people. The television, the radio, the newspaper, and social media platforms' content were all about the same thing."You hear that, darling?" Shiela asked when she heard Shawn screaming from inside his room. "Something might be happening to our son. Let me check on him."Shiela stood up and walked towards Shawn's room, while Lyon stayed on the couch, drinking his coffee. As she opened the door, Shiela's eyes turned wide to find her son lying on his bed while trying to smother himself with his pillow."Shawn, wake up! You're dreaming!" Shiela shouted as she tried to take the pillow from Shawn, but he was too strong to let go, so she just shook his body to wake him up instead."Mom!" Shawn suddenly jolted up on his bed, awakened from his nightmares. He spread his arms around his mother, hugging her tightly, thankful that it was all j
