Hello there and good to see that you guys probably enjoyed the previous chapter. I tell you, I haven't done something so lengthy as getting a 7000 words quota and it is usually when I did a 5000 words quota yet here it is.
I could have just continued and followed what I am taking inspiration from but I believe I am at my limit with the length I give so, if you have anymore ideas, let me know in the comments below.
As always...
On with the story...
Disclaimer: I do not own Akame ga Kill and 'Akame Ga kill: Return of Red Dragon emperor' by 'animemaster212'. They belong to their respective owners.
Enjoy.
PS: Okay so, I'm going to say this. I know that I should put more depth to the story but I just want to know, is it good to give more depth or context to the story or just comes across as unnecessary padding? I could have tried to add more to the story but I'm basically tired and I want to get it all done without making you guys suffering an Arc Fatigue.
Because let me tell you, I've already suffered from an Arc Fatigue with StoryTyrant11's infamous Destroyer Falls and how his writing is absolutely horrendous and unnecessary.
I don't even know who would even want to read that unless they have dyslexia or something. Either way, let me know in the comments below.
PSS: Should I say 'Teigus' if I called it in plural? Because it just comes across as rather strange of a word. What do you think?
Marching through the forest with careful, a thousand of able bodied men pushed through the forest past the many trees, bushes and vegetations in their way, hacking them with their respective weapons as they are one step closer towards reaching their designated reward.
And all of them are grinning for what they have been promised for, consisting of mercenaries, criminals and opportunists, they will get what they deserved when they either kill or capture the members of Night Raid and bring their heads to the Empire.
Back then, it has been just another day of drinking in the pub, the brawling, arguing and other crude actions as they are all making their ends meet of getting a job through the request papers they get, consisting of bodyguard work, enforcing the influence of crime bosses or nobles and other works that gives them an easy pay.
But then, today is about to get more interesting later on as someone that they don't recognize had came into their pub, covered entirely in a heavy dark-grey hooded cloak that hides what they look like beneath it.
The mercenaries can only whisper to each other at the new arrival, wondering if the guy is some big shot trying to be all mysterious and all that as they walked up to the bar.
The bartender, look at the mysterious figure in slight intrigue but a deadpan stare as he said, "What do you need, stranger?"
The stranger doesn't respond but they started to fished something out from their cloak as the bartender look at it in curiousity before taking out the paper from their hand.
As the bartender then takes out his reading glasses and read the content, his eyes widened in shock and intrigue as he look at the stranger and said, "You serious?"
The stranger seemed to whisper something but comes out as inaudible although one can make out his words that said, "Read it." with a motion of his head.
The bartender can only stare once again in disbelief before adjusting his reading glasses and read, "Everyone, everyone! I would like to make an announcement for all your ears only! If anyone is listening, please raise your hand!"
The rest of the mercenaries can only look at each other in an unsure expression before reluctantly raising their hands up as the bartender continues on reading, "If you raise your hands up, that's good. Then, listen here and listen good. I am making an announcement to all of you that know where the secret of location of where Night Raid is."
All the mercenaries gasped in shock at what they're hearing and they can't be blamed. They know of the infamy of Night Raid, wanted criminals of the Empire that had made a name for themselves in killing criminals, nobles and other notable figures with ease with their Wanted Posters shown that has a considerable amount of rewards that is in comparison to how dangerous.
"If you don't believe, then who cares but I will let you know is that the secret headquarters of Night Raid will be where I will lead you and if you either bring the heads of every member of Night Raid or even better, capture them and show them all to the Emperor himself, then you will be rewarded with whatever you want. It's your choice to join." The bartender continued on reading.
The mercenaries were all looking at each other skeptically and most of all of them were grinning at such a great opportunity presented to them, knowing how rewarding it will be to kill Night Raid and bringing in their heads to the Emperor.
"If you want to join, then all of you shouldn't hold back on joining as well. I know that the assassins of Night Raid are powerful and dangerous as what can a bunch of mercenaries would handle someone like them." The bartender continued on reading what is on his hand as everyone look angered at being insulted, "So instead, why not we swarm their secret base with numbers, instead. Create an army that will invade their base and live to tell the tale of it. I won't be denying that some, or most of you, would die. Which just means that unless you're smart and lady luck is with you, then you will get your reward and be a happy man. So, what do you say? Do you want to take this opportunity or not?" The bartender finally finished reading.
Every mercenary can only look at each other as they stare in disbelief.
This is just unprecedented.
Not only do they get the reward for getting the heads of Night Raid but if they play their cards right, they would even get an audience with the Emperor and get whatever they want.
Their eyes gleamed with greed and a sense of opportunity, imagining what will happen if they ever ceased their moment and maybe, for the more depraved members, they could wish whatever they want if they capture any female members of Night Raid alive, that is.
So, with that being said, they know what is their answer.
And that is where they are as the mercenaries, alongside a collection of criminals, gangsters, thugs, bandits and opportunists, are ready to invade Night Raid and getting what they with any members of Night Raid and get the reward they want.
And some of the more depraved members, however, have their own reasons for wanting the Night Raid, particularly those of the opposite gender, that is.
Regardless, they have their prep time ready and while they would hardly gonna work together and share the reward, they won't deny that their numbers are their advantage and even if they're will be some loss, all they have to do is overwhelming them with numbers and it'll be as easy as-
Suddenly, they stopped when they heard the sound coming from above, hearing the tattletale signs of thunder happening.
'That's strange.' They thought, only looking in confusion on how sudden that a storm is coming, especially when it was just sunny day.
Then, they heard a sound of flesh being torn as everyone saw through the bushes and trees to be one of their own being impaled from the ground up, much to their shock.
What had impaled him appears to be bone white long pole with a spiked end as whether he is bandit, mercenary or whatever member he is, is impaled from below and jutted out from his neck and all he can do is coughing out blood as he gasped from breathe before the spike receded down, leaving him dying in his own blood.
As some of the men ran towards the dying man, trying desperately save him in futility, another man had also impaled from the ground up, sharing the same fate as the one that is first killed before the spike receded down.
Then, more men started dying, whether it is being impaled down or being impaled by the same sharp bone white spike onto their chest, heads and other body parts as, while most of them wear armour, it is made pretty clear that is ineffective against the projectile as they can only look in shock as they dropped down, dying from their injuries and die.
"EVERYBODY RUN!" One of them screamed in fear as everyone didn't need to be told twice as they try to run through the forest, trying to escape the death that awaits them.
Their expressions, once held only greed, pride and ambitious opportunity, morphed into one of terror as they try to run as fast as possible, trying to get away from the assailant that ambushed.
'How is this possible?' Some of them said, 'How did our element of surprise gets foiled? Is this a trap? Were all their promises of a reward being nothing but lies?' They don't have a chance to contemplate more as they continue to run and one by one, whether they are mercenaries, bandits, thugs or opportunists, it doesn't matter as they face the same fate of being impaled by the mysterious projectiles with no chance of surviving.
They look to see a light from the forest as everyone are running towards a clearing in the wide open as one then yelled, "EVERYONE, GROUP TOGETHER! WHOEVER IS ATTACKING US, THEY WON'T PENETRATE OUR DEFENSES! NOW, GET TOGETHER AND FORM A DEFENSIVE POSITION!"
Shaken by the experience, they nonetheless complied as they group together to form a defensive position where they take the shape of a ring as they look around, watching each other's back on where their attacker is.
Looking around, they now noticed that they are dropping down to maybe a hundred or 500, more or less to be exact as they try to grip their respective weapons as they make an effort to make a last stand against whoever the assailant is.
Then, they heard a choking sound as everyone look up and they can only stare in shock and disbelief at the sight of what they are seeing.
Floating up above them is none other than the Phantasm himself, his black robes billows in the wind, his mask sporting two piercing and glowing white glares and his long glowing white hair flows like a spectral entity.
On his left hand, he is carrying a spear that is as long as he is, if that make sense and ends with a pointed spear blade that is glowing, have runes and have static electricity surrounding it.
And on his right hand, he is holding one of their members by the neck, basically choking him as the mercenary tries to break free from the Phantasm's grip before he then ready his hand and throw the mercenary up, making him scream as he swing his spear and slashed the mercenary in two, making them screamed in fear as they watched the corpse drop down with his intestines out and blood started drenching the corpse.
The Phantasm then lowers down, his glaring mask showcasing absolute terror to the group of mercenaries and before anyone could say anything, the Phantasm speaks, "The mistake you all have made means that your death will not be a gentle one."
Meanwhile, the rest of Night Raid were all running through the woods as they tried to catch up with Ylith as Akame readies her katana alongside Bulat, Sheele, Lubbock and Mine with their own respective weapons and Leone running on all fours like a feline predator.
All the while, Tatsumi and his friends are also joining them, trying to reach towards where Ylith has flown towards as well as the obvious sound of the thundering clap of a storm on the horizon.
"Damned it..." Mine seethe in annoyance, "Where the hell are we going?"
"We're trying to reach towards where Ylith is..." Sheele answered to him.
Mine just groan and said, "Ugh... Just what the hell was he thinking, trying to face off a thousand like that? Does he have a death wish?"
"I don't know, Mine..." Lubbock said, "We saw what Ylith did at the mansion and while I don't know how much hocus pocus this guy have but if the thousand of intruders are just normal guys, then he can handle it, especially."
"All the more reason to reach to where Ylith is. Now, come on..." Leone said as she keeps on running faster and harder, "Before there's none left."
As they have their discussions, Tatsumi and his friends are with Akame and Bulat as they ran together as Bulat said, "Hey, you three." He called out to them.
"Huh... Uh, what?" Tatsumi said as he and his friends heard what Bulat.
"Before we reach towards where Ylith is, what is your answer?" Bulat asked them.
"Out answer?" Sayo said, pointing at herself.
"The answer if you three ever join us or not." Akame said to them as Tatsumi and his friends look at each other in confusion and uncertainty at that.
"I... We don't know..." Ieyasu said in admittance.
"Listen, you three..." Bulat said in a soft tone, "I don't mind if you guys don't join. Our job is very dangerous and what Ylith said is no joke. What you will be facing when we did our jobs, know that it won't be easy to anyone that haven't experienced this kind of thing. So if you guys won't join, I understand."
"I..." Tatsumi stopped himself, still feeling uncertain and confused.
"We are assassins who will do what is necessary where the Revolutionary Army couldn't and we accept our deaths if it ever come to us. Or... Worse." Akame stated, having listened to what Ylith had said, "If you cannot handle the task at hand, then there is no harm in not joining. After all..." Akame then give a saddening expression and said, "It would free you from what is most painful."
Her tone makes the three youths look surprised a bit, especially with how brief they are interacting with her, they do know that there is something sad about Akame.
Before they could continue their conversation, they were stopped by Bulat who showed his hand to them as Ieyasu, "What is it? Are we there yet?"
"Oh, we are finally here, alright." Lubbock said in a tone of disbelief as everyone look at the sight before them, appearing to be clearing in the middle of the forest as they watched the chaos unfold before them.
They all watched as Ylith is massacring the armies with ease, spinning his spear around as he sliced anyone in his path.
Tatsumi, his friends and Night Raid were all watching from the bushes and trees before staring at one of the mercenaries who has been impaled in the back by those bone white spikes as all he can say is, "H-help... M-me..." in a hoarse and raspy tone before dropping dead.
They then stared at the corpse for a few seconds before finally watching Ylith's fight with the invaders.
Ylith makes short work against the bandits and mercenaries, spinning his spear around as he sliced anyone in his path as every bandit and mercenary are being bisected into two as the Phantasm shows no mercy against them.
Bulat watched Ylith's skill with his spear, impressed by how fluid and refined it is as Ylith continues on swinging, piercing and stabbing his enemies with such calm ease.
Some of the mercenaries and bandits takes out their bows and arrows as well as crossbows as they all fire Ylith.
This, however, didn't do anything as despite the hail of projectiles coming his way, it only hit those from behind Ylith, unintentionally killing the mercenaries that were about to charge upon him.
'There it is again. I could have sworn those arrows would were right on point but...' Sayo can only scrutinized her thoughts as thinks, 'How the hell does he dodged all of that?'
The archers and crossbowmen can only stare in horror at the fact that their weapons are ineffective against Ylith as they tried to reload but Ylith and throws his spear like javelin, impaling one and letting it fly towards a tree which he hangs upon it.
This action makes Night Raid watched in shock at Ylith did, "What the hell is this guy thinking? He just throws away his one weapon against just one of them and now he is unarmed. I mean, what is he even doing that for?" Mine said in abject horror and everyone couldn't help but agree with what she said.
Except for Sheele, who knows what Ylith is doing.
As the bandits and mercenaries all saw Ylith is now unarmed, they grin in confidence as they charge at the Phantasm, ready to overwhelm him, "You're really stupid for throwing away your weapon like that! Now, you're gonna pay for killing us all-" He didn't need to finish when he finds himself beheaded from his body alongside five more as everyone stares in shock at what they're seeing.
"Impossible..." Akame said in shock
"No way..." Leone said, also in shock.
"Am I seeing this right?" Lubbock said in shock and disbelief.
Mine, who's mouth is still wide opened and say, "Sheele? Did you say that this guy can wield multiple Imperial Arms, right?"
"I know what you're thinking, Mine and yet, no matter how much you try to deny it, Ylith can actually wield another Imperial Arms in his hand." Sheele stated to him.
"Hold on. Why is that a shock? And what is an Imperial Arms?" Tatsumi asked in confusion.
"And why is it shocking that he can wield it anyway?" Sayo also asked them.
"We'll tell you when Ylith has already finished with the intruders. Then we'll discuss about it for you guys." Bulat said to them.
Back at the fight, Ylith displays his flaming katana and then, on his other hand that appears from thin air is a katana who's blade is covered in frosted ice as the Phantasm displays his dual weapons of the opposite elements, twirling himself around before giving a glare at the intruders who's once confident smirk now returned to being terrified.
And Ylith doesn't give them any quarter as he charge towards them and spin himself around as he slice anyone his blades come into contact with.
One mercenary gets bisected by Ylith in two by his flaming katana while another get beheaded without Ylith even looking.
Three of the mercenaries and bandits charge ahead with their weapons in hand, most specifically spears but Ylith just swing his flaming katana at them and fired a swathe of flames that burns them all as they screamed in pain.
Then Ylith fired another swathe of flames that burns them as Ylith slashed the ground, making ice formed upon it before Ylith twirl his ice katana around as the ice floor started to move towards the other charging intruders who can only look in fear as the ice started to slowly cover them, making them scream in fear and pain until they are finally frozen over like a statue.
Then, Ylith crack his neck before plunging his ice katana to where the ice floor is, making the ice cracked to pieces, especially the ice statue itself.
Ylith then continue on killing and killing anyone in his path with his ice and fire dual katana as Night Raid, alongside Tatsumi and his friends, all watched in awe as Ylith makes mincemeat with everyone in his way.
Leone can only look with a widened mouth before saying, "Holy shit. Najenda wasn't kidding when this guy is like Esdeath."
"Yeah..." Lubbock stated, "Although that still doesn't explained on what the hell is he?"
"Guess that's another mystery for someone like Ylith, huh?" Bulat said in an amused tone.
Ylith is finally finished making short work with the many intruders as the field are now filled to the brim with corpses all around, all of them killed without mercy as they are sliced apart, bifurcated, gutted and killed without mercy.
The Phantasm just look upon the sight with a grunt before he makes his dual ice and fire katana disappear from thin air as he turned around to actually return only to stop when-
"Stop right there!"
Ylith turned his head behind him to see someone is out of the forest as he approached the Phantasm, walking through the corpses of the bandits and mercenaries, all around them.
Ylith look upon the last sole mercenary that came upon him, strutting around with such a confident grin as stand before Ylith who can only look upon the sole survivor with a clearly annoyed deadpan stare.
As they still stare at each other for only about a few seconds, Ylith then said, "If you're smart, you could have just run away when you had the chance. How unfortunate that your inability to think things through will be your downfall."
"Hah, keep talking, assassin. When I'm done with you, I'm gonna cut your head off and get myself some juicy front row seat to the Emperor himself and then I can get whatever I want since I deserved it, that is." The sole survivor said in his cocky and arrogant tone.
Ylith just stare at the sole survivor like he is an idiot (which he is) with a blank look, as if he can't believe the guy is this stupid.
The same can be said with the others who are also in agreement of how dumb the guy, "Oh, man. He must be really tough to be this confident." Ieyasu said in a worried and cautionary tone.
Well, not all of them.
Ylith just stares blankly before saying, "I've faced against the armies of the Imperial dogs, all by myself, face against more dogs like these ones and you think you can defeat me? What makes you think you'll be ever more different?"
"Hah. I'll show you..." The sole survivor then fished out something from his back as he displayed them, "Behold, my Teigu."
What he is holding on both of his hands appears to be a pair of chakrams that appears to have a wind-lime design on it's metallic blade as it shone brightly in the sunlight.
"Impressed, right? These are my Imperial Arms, Sky Devil: Zephyr. You may want to know how did I get them, right?"
"Uhm... Not really-"
"It all started when I..."
All Ylith can hear is the muffling sounds of whatever the hell he is talking about as Ylith just stares as his left eye is twitching in annoyance and frustration as he can barely handle anymore of whatever the idiot in front of him is talking about.
"... And that is how my Teigu which allows me to manipulate the wind like it is one of my elements. You may want to know how do I get the strength and skill to wield it?" The sole survivor said in a boastful tone.
"Uh... No. Please don't-"
"It all started when..."
Ylith can only stare blankly and in annoyance as the idiot keeps on talking and talking and talking about himself like he is important or something and as if whatever backstory or motivation he has is practically interesting or something, 'I don't care. I don't care. I don't care.'
"... And that is where I am. Now, I'm gonna claim my prize as well as everyone'a prize and I will make sure that I will have everything I deserved. Like, the best riches, the best food, the best babes..." He said in perverted tone, "So, are you prepared to face defeat?" He said as he takes a stance with his Zephyr Teigu.
He was just staring blankly at him until realization kicks in and said, "You're done."
"Uh... What?"
"I said..." Ylith said in annoyance and frustration, "Are you done?"
"Uh..."
"Yup, you're done..." Ylith sigh in relief, "Now, why don't you do yourself and die already? I've wasted enough time with idiots like you thinking like you're important or dangerous but in reality, you're just another idiot who will be forgotten and that's it. Nothing more."
The sole survivor look shocked before glaring in anger as he said, "I'll show you to look down on me..." The Teigu in his hand started to get envelop in wind as he declared, "Prepare to know your place, scumbag. For with Zephyr in my hand, you'll be-"
He is interrupted when a slicing sound is heard as Ylith's flies straight towards his right hand, grabbing it with ease as he swiped the blood of the glowing spearhead to the ground.
The sole survivor can only stay like that, looking in shock as he look at the bridge of his own nose as blood started to trickle down as he trembled in disbelief, unable to actually form any words in his mouth until finally, two halves fall to the ground as blood started spraying from the open halves as it drenched the area in blood.
Ylith stares at the idiot's corpse with annoyance as he said, "See that, just another idiot."
Everyone stares at Ylith's 'fight' with the Teigu user and they gotta admit on how anti-climatic that is, "That's... Uh... That's quick?"
"To be fair, I don't think the guy is actually that capable of facing against Ylith, one on one. Sure, he got a Teigu but we just saw him wield multiple Imperial Arms so, I don't think he'll actually win the fight." Lubbock explained to everyone.
"Doesn't help that this guy just had to explain his backstory or motivation. As if he's someone interesting or whatever. Like, that is so cliche and stupid. Like, who gives a shit." Mine said in frustration.
"Oh man..." Leone said in disappointment, "Did he just off that guy like that?"
"I know, right? Surely he should give his opponent some honour or dignity in battle." Bulat said, also in disappointment.
"On the contrary..." Akame said coldly, "I think Ylith did just fine."
As they continue on their discussion, they saw Ylith is trying to pick up the Teigu from the sole survivor's hand and he can only groan in annoyance when the grip is really strong and tight and he just tries to wrench the grip off until finally, he got it before doing it the same to the other hand.
Everyone stares in confusion at what Ylith is doing as he grabbed Zephyr in hand, "What is he doing?" Ieyasu said in confusion.
"Don't tell me he's going to use that Teigu, right?" Mine said in shock and disbelief.
"I know, right? I can believe him using three Imperial Arms but one more and hell, maybe a dozen, even I think that's too far." Lubbock said in a skeptical tone.
He didn't need to asked anymore questions when Ylith gripped the chakram Teigu in hand, gripping the handle as the wind started to envelope the circular blade until finally, he swings it and shoot crescent-shaped wind from the blade itself, cutting some branches and trees in it's wake.
This make Night Raid look in shock at what Ylith did as Akame said, "Impossible..."
"No way, he really did it?" Mine said in shock.
"Unbelievable." Lubbock said in disbelief.
"Seriously, guys. What's the big deal? So, he can make that weapon shoot wind or something? What is something that makes you guys feel shocked anyway?" Tatsumi said in frustration at their reaction.
Before they could answer, Ylith finally speak up as he said, "Are you all done watching?"
Everyone look in shock that Ylith actually noticed them although considering the fact that he has done this before at the mansion, it isn't too surprising.
Without any prompt, they all come out from the forest as they traverse pass the corpses that Ylith had just killed without mercy with Tatsumi and his friends were all looking sickened at the sight of the blood and gore around them.
Bulat just breaks the silence as he said, "Huh? Well... Uh... Good job with the intruders... Great work, though." He said, thanking him.
"They are a waste of time. I have already faced entire armies by myself. This is no different." Ylith said in a boastful tone.
"Right..." Akame nodded at his answer before looking at Lubbock and said, "Lubbock. Anymore intruders in the forest?"
"Let me see..." Lubbock said as he moved his fingers, briefly revealing the strings from his fingers, "Nope. All intruders are all finished."
"Seriously..." Leone said before groaning in disappointment, "Oh man, can't you just leave for some of us?"
"No." Ylith said as plainly and bluntly as possible.
"You know it's stupid to face an entire army, right?" Mine said in a critical tone to Ylith.
"Do you also know that nobody gives a shit about your opinion?" Ylith sarcastically stated to him, making Mins growl at him.
"Well, I'm just glad that you're still alive, Ylith. I'm worried that you would have died, right in front of us." Sheele said in a thankful tone to him.
"Your worries are appreciated but unnecessary. If you see before me..." He said as he showed off the aftermath of his massacre, "Everyone, even the idiot himself, are no match for me. Just as expected as nothing but miserable incompetent worms at that."
Then he noticed that Tatsumi and his friends are with them, "And why are you three still here? Either you three are waiting for me to pick you up? Or don't tell you pick the second option?"
Tatsumi, Sayo and Ieyasu were all looking at each other in an unsure expression until Tatsumi finally said, "Well, we discuss with each other and we agreed with each other together."
"So, you three decided to join us?" Najenda said after everyone has finally returned from handling with the intruders although, more like Ylith is the one handling with the intruders, Tatsumi and his friends have agreed on something together.
They want to join Night Raid.
"I know... I know..." Tatsumi said, sighing in difficulty, "I know that we aren't ready for this. I mean, how can we? We thought that we would go to the Capital and win something big and when we returned, we would finally give our home the riches they deserved. But that's not gonna happen because of what had showed us. All those people murdered by those scums of the Empire. I just felt if that ever happened to us, maybe to my friends..." Tatsumi then look at Sayo and Ieyasu, who were all worried at what will happen if that ever happened, "I don't know what I'll do if I returned home and brought back nothing except a memory that I can never forget, were it not for you." He said gratefully to Ylith as he gives him a smile which Ylith just respond with a nod.
"So, that's why we're joining you guys. Because... Because..." Ieyasu has no idea how to continue before saying, "What's the point of being here, anyway?"
Everyone listened to what they say with apt attention before Akame then said, "You're not going to survive in our mission."
"Then, we'll be very careful. We'll listen to you guys and we won't be confident or anything. Right, guys?" Sayo look at the boys in a strained tone and glare, which Tatsumi and Ieyasu nod fervently at that.
The members of Night Raid all look at each other in uncertainty as Mine said, "Are we really letting them join?"
"Let them..." Ylith said as everyone look at him, "They are free to make their own choice. What matters is if they are willing to pay the price. And..." Ylith then look at the three youths and said, "I sure hope you three are not making a mistake on this."
"Quick question..." Tatsumi asked as he raise his hand up, "We're getting payed, right?"
"If you work hard, then yes you will." Najenda said to him.
"Then, I guess that's all the answer we can get." Tatsumi said, looking at his friends as they smiled together.
"In that case, you three. Welcome to Night Raid." Najenda said to them before looking at Ylith as she said, "And what about you? What's your answer?"
Ylith stays still as everyone is waiting for his answer and after what felt like hours, all he can say is, "If I must."
Well, hope you guys enjoyed the chapter. I put all the efforts to make it readable for you guys and sure, there are repetitive words and grammar errors on some but overall, I did fantastic.
Or maybe that's my thing and you guys have different taste but then again, if you're taste involve this:
'Y/N: I am Y/N and I am male who reads a lot.
Random Female Character: Please, let me be in your harem.'
Then no because as much as I actually want to do a style like that because it comes across as short and simple, I think that for me, it comes as borderline lazy, stupid and not exactly enjoyable because looking at my work, I at least put in the effort to make my writings, to be exact.
Either way, what other stories you want me to take inspiration from Wattpad.
Let me know in the comments below if you want something that has an intriguing concept but bogged down by poor execution.
Or maybe any games, movies or other media who's plot are actually interesting but is bogged down by how stupid the execution is.
Anyway, guys...
Ciao...
