Stranded Stranger 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
Stranded Stranger 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
Stranded Stranger 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
Stranded Stranger 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
Stranded Stranger 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
Stranded Stranger 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.
Stranded Stranger Chapter One: Stranger
"Where am I?" Shawn wondered when he opened his eyes and found out he was lost in the middle of nowhere. It was a place he had never been; it wasn't familiar at all, and everything seemed different."What's going on here?" he asked again, seeing dust floating with the wind, creating a tornado. "What the hell? Is this a joke?" He screamed in shock and ran as the tornado became greater than he anticipated."Stop!" An unfamiliar girl, wearing a lilac shirt and pants, shouted at him. She had long, straight black hair and violet eyes that were sharp as daggers. She moved swiftly towards him and asked, "What are you doing here, stranger?""Stranger?" Shawn replied in a curious tone. "I don't know; I don't know what I am doing here. Am I not dead yet? Aren't you an angel fallen from heaven?" He lightly scratched his head and smiled like this was a joke before saying, "I think I'm lost.""What are you talking about? Of course you're lost; you might have been from another kingdom, because you
Stranded Stranger Chapter Two: Adventurer's Guild
Days before, Shawn was living an ordinary life on earth. He was a student at Jefferson High School. Just like other people, he had a low profile. He loved keeping things private, never posting on social media about what was going on in his life, and never trusting anyone, not even his own family.That day, about one o'clock in the afternoon, he and his best friend, Justin, were crossing the highway when a rushing ambulance suddenly appeared. His friend managed to survive, but he was hit and died on the spot. That ambulance didn't have a chance to bring him to a hospital; he was brought to a morgue instead.He would usually crack a joke to his classmates, telling them that if they were tired of their lives, they should not worry because there was free makeup in a funeral home, but he couldn't imagine or never expect that he would taste that free makeup first."Hang in there, Shawn!" were the last words he heard from his friend before everything turned dark. He wished he had lost his vi

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
