Chapter 590

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1FV6mT8jbUY4MPdNWAKxz9FfwDYsMhu9CHCoMIzrcQM0/edit?usp=sharingIt comes as no surprise to learn my ideas dont always translate into success, but considering I intend to uproot one and a half million families and settle them along a thousand kilometre border, I cant really afford to use my tried and true tactic of make it up as I go.A good thing Ive been set up for success. My greatest advantage as a civil servant is my past lifes memories. Scattered and inexact though they may be, they offer me a wor...

Chapter 589

https://docs.google.com/document/d/13EWbzGuw5WplFa4k-eWmqNlkGpcMYgktxgPYCft5f1w/edit?usp=sharingGoing through her mental checklist for the umpteenth time, Yuzhen resisted the urge to bite her nails while making certain every last detail had been accounted for.First and foremost was her appearance, because like it or not, most people considered her as a woman first and a Marshal second, third, or perhaps even further down the line, depending on who you asked. Thus, going out in the same outfit twice in one week was absolutely unacceptable, while...

Chapter 588 unedited and unmemed

Donneeeee. There was a lot of information I wanted to get through in this chapter, and I'm not 100% sure I covered it all, so if something doesn't make sense, or if you have any questions whatsoever, please do bring them up, either here or on Discord. My answers may sound snippy, but that's only because I'm too lazy to type them out properly, and not at all because I am annoyed. I love your questions regarding the most inane things in SD, cuz it lets me share all the stupid details I thought of and have no place in the story :DA...

Chapter 587 unedited unmemed

Authors note: As you can tell by the lateness, I kinda rushed out the ending. Ill try to flesh it out before release, but if I add anything that gets referenced in the next few chapters before then, Ill note it beforehand.https://docs.google.com/document/d/1hV6qH9MuJB9j3sO_Ha8XY5h3i0r18v7EpkS1MxR0pw0/edit?usp=sharingLuo-Luo never felt like more of a stranger in the household than during the days following Lord Husband and Sister Milas wedding.To celebrate their nuptials, the husband and wife pair retreated to their new manor, which was ...

It's Mother's day today, so remember to call the woman who gave birth to you and let her know you're thinking of her.While you're at it, let her know that I too am thinking of her.Word to your mothers, all.

This chapter actually turned out much better than expected, though now Im really not happy about 584. I'll look over it again over the weekend, but I'll probably just leave it mostly as is, because it's too much trouble changing it now. Anywho, enjoy the chapter.https://docs.google.com/document/d/19aF2cpCw4LXn0MEHb6y2yxOhmxyCIA6E9U02i4PVytY/edit?usp=sharingI always knew Id end up fighting for my life on the day of my wedding.I just never thought itd be against my grandfather slash father-in-law, or that he would beat me black an...

The heat was almost oppressive during the day, to the point where labourers were given two hours to rest starting at noon, but the cool evenings were a pleasant delight. The days were longer here in Central, with twilight lingerin...

Here you go! sorry about the late chap. Didn't cover everything I wanted in as much detail as I'd like, but I might do another Rain chapter next, or try to finagle the trashed bits so it actually covers stuff that's important. Anywho, here it be, so enjoy!https://docs.google.com/document/d/1oMyCRDI2XvQgKotelzC6DieqWX_LpdDUby-r3lOcbJA/edit?usp=sharingAfter three and a half months of consistent night-time visits, I have finally seen everything there is to see in Pong Pongs Natal Palace.

I just tossed out everything I already had and am starting from scratch, so chapter won't be out tonight. It'll either be tomorrow or saturday, depending on how much work work i wanna skip on to write. Sorry, and check discord for more updates.

Yan couldnt simply read a book or play with the rabbits until it came time to leave, because if she did, then Eun, Kyung, Grandpa Du, or one of his guards would accompany her for as long as ...

For weeks now, Luo-Luo had been toiling day and night to help fulfill the obligations of his office while also treading the Martial Path, but still their relationship was as tepid as ever. To date, his most intimat...

Instead, they all gather into small cliques to mingle and socialize as if a bunch of them didnt just try to murder one a...

Gonna be a little late, not sure how long, but don't hold your breaths. Better to expect nothing and be pleasantly surprised than hope for something and be utterly crushed.

Chapter 573

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mv8IAWtNkBQ0Ov4gY9D9qnrUv_gZASSywrAVVk8Jh5I/edit?usp=sharingAfter a long, tense, and taxing week of vigilance and preparation, Binesi set aside an hour to mediate in the courtyard before it came time for the banquet.Tonights festivities could very well devolve into a bloodbath of mythical proportions, but Nian Zu and the foundling could hardly arrive with swords drawn and bows bent. This was the true challenge which lay before him, to guard against enemies while maintaining a false air of harmonious unity. ...

Its counter-intuitive, but Im happy to sacrifice a few minutes of sleep in exchange for some much needed snuggle time with all my sweet floofs.

This is not the sort of thing a confident young hero is supposed to admit. Better if you keep quiet and behave as if you had it all planned out in advance.No, thats too cold and calculating, and not at all like me. No one would ever believe it. Never one to accept ...

BONUS CHAPTER AND MORE CHAPTERS!

The first chapter of Savage Divinity was released on March 11th, 2016.It's been a long four years since then, and I'm kinda getting real sick of it.All the bitching and moaning and "hurr durr make Rain OPOP" just makes me wanna puke, but I'm committed to finishing this story and I love monies from patreon, so I've kept at for the sake of keeping at it.Well no more. For I have found the perfect solution, while chatting with relatives I didn't know I had thanks to this stupid covid19 outbreak. See, one of my uncles has...

Author's note: I'm taking a break for Easter, but I'm staggering it out so no one gets stuck on a big cliff. So for you guys, I'll be taking sunday off, even though I'll still be posting this chapter on Royal Road on sunday. In exchange, you guys get the next chapter on tuesday, with no further interuptions, while I go on break on RR the same day.Its a little complicated, but everyone getting 1 day chapter break, so i can sit around and do nothing because everyone's stuck at home. :P It's kinda shitty all around on a...

How is this not bullshit?Okay, allowed might be too strong of a word, but buying things without asking the price is apparently some big dick energy move, showing off how much money you have and how little you care about spending it.

I prob should have mentioned this yesterday, but yea. It's hard to catch up on weekdays, when I have work to do. Chapter 568 will be out tomorrow for sure, and so long as I don't screw things up, we should be back on track by sunday. Hopefully.Sorry for choppy schedule, but life has been a little crazy lately.
