Archmage Rudilas Miroa Genuery wondered that. Why are young people so desperate to know what's going on in the other person's mind? They're just not that into love....... When they break up, they talk about it all the time, and when they're together, they want to make sure they're in love by causing all kinds of trouble. Rudilas was honestly tired of it. He'd spent his entire youth practicing magic, and all he wanted was a love potion. "Silly things!" Rudilas gritted his teeth. It was a waste of a life to become a witch for so little money. Rudilas didn't care about other people's love. It was none of his business if they were in a lovely relationship or if they broke up and went on to become enemies. All Rudilas wanted was the pursuit of truth. Or more precisely, the perfection of pure power. It was the only thing that kept him alive. He knew better than anyone that a man's heart could not be artificially changed, but today he poured ingredients into the cauldron, stirring them carefully with a spatula. "Inain!" "Yes!" "Go and get the birthing bats. I told you they were supposed to be in the potion. What have you been up to?" "I'm sorry, sir. Just give me a minute!" "Bring it on, you lazy bastard!" Rudilas exclaimed. "How could you ever be my pupil? Anyway, the young ones these days are......." Inain quickly ran away. He knew that once Rudilas started grumbling and complaining, there would be no end to it. Rudilas would often call Inain a brainless idiot and a worthless piece of shit, and would even refer to him as a useless mouth. Several times, Inain had resisted the urge to ask him about love potions and why he didn't refuse to make them. Rudilas spent his days making pills to improve marriages, amulets to find runaway wives, and pills to make lost pets come home. In front of his students, he would puff up his chest as the greatest sage in the empire, but in practice, he was no better than a back-alley medicine peddler. Inain didn't follow Rudilas out of any deep-seated respect. He stuck with Rudilas because he was one of the most knowledgeable mages in the empire in terms of pure magic, and because he was one of the few mages with access to the Imperial Library. Additionally, Rudilas was the only mage who fed and bedded Inain in the place so close to the Imperial Palace. "Inain!" "Yes, I'm coming," Inain gritted his teeth. He was getting tired of all the insincere pretense and flattery. Morning and night, he'd be carrying around a bat wing he didn't recognize, and he'd be thinking, 'Ew, that's frustrating. I'm going to beat the crap out of him.......' Of course, he was only thinking to himself. And his sage with little mind was shrewd. "Here it is." "Go ahead and put it away. Have you washed your hands?" "Oh, right." "Sheshe. Anyway, he's useless, spoiled, and....... These days, things are......" The nagging was almost a habit, and had Inain reconsidering, should he quit the job? Inain sighed and shook his head. It was a position he'd earned hard, having disobeyed his father. An apprentice, but a wizard is a wizard. He had no intention of moving out of Rudilas's house, no matter how badly he felt.

Download or read book Manga written by Toni Johnson-Woods and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2010-04-15 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Once upon a time, one had to read Japanese in order to enjoy manga. Today manga has become a global phenomenon, attracting audiences in North America, Europe, Africa, and Australia. The style has become so popular, in fact, that in the US and UK publishers are appropriating the manga style in a variety of print material, resulting in the birth of harlequin mangas which combine popular romance fiction titles with manga aesthetics. Comic publishers such as Dark Horse and DC Comics are translating Japanese "classics", like Akira, into English. And of course it wasn't long before Shakespeare received the manga treatment. So what is manga? Manga roughly translates as "whimsical pictures" and its long history can be traced all the way back to picture books of eighteenth century Japan. Today, it comes in two basic forms: anthology magazines (such as Shukan Shonen Jampu) that contain several serials and manga 'books' (tankobon) that collect long-running serials from the anthologies and reprint them in one volume. The anthologies contain several serials, generally appear weekly and are so thick, up to 800 pages, that they are colloquially known as phone books. Sold at newspaper stands and in convenience stores, they often attract crowds of people who gather to read their favorite magazine. Containing sections addressing the manga industry on an international scale, the different genres, formats and artists, as well the fans themselves, Manga: An Anthology of Global and Cultural Perspectives is an important collection of essays by an international cast of scholars, experts, and fans, and provides a one-stop resource for all those who want to learn more about manga, as well as for anybody teaching a course on the subject.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Category Fiction > Yaoi Fiction > Short Story Fiction > Korean Fiction (Web Novel) Summary A nerdy man heard about a mysterious shop. It sells sex toys, which is not so special as a shop, but it has a 'personal shopper', who can help a customer choose the right toys for themselves. The man decided to visit the shop and got his wallet thick with money. #modernSetting #mistake #comedy #foolishMistakes #innocentSoo #timidSoo * This short story of yaoi/BL is translated from from the original Korean short web-novel. (text only, no illustration) Tables Of Contents Title Page Body Content Copyright (38 pages in approx. print length) Preview A man went back and forth in front of the store. He had thick hair and glasses, but he had grown hair so much that he couldn't even see his eyes well. A stretched shirt, worn jeans that are out of fashion, and sneakers that are crumpled. He had a pale face like he hadn't seen the sunlight, a thick wallet roughly inserted into his back pocket, and even his hands are restless while looking at his cell phone. The man, who seemed to be a perfect unsociable, looked around the alley again while looking at the sign of a store and looked at his cell phone with anxiety. His steps were hesitating, and he was nervously biting his thumb nail and glancing around. Then eventually, he took a step as if he had made up his mind. The store was leading to the basement, and at the entrance, there was a light that was only enough not for a man to fall. The green emergency exit sign was the brightest. The man carefully went down the stairs and breathed in. There was a strong musk scent beyond the humid and moist smell unique to the basement. The scent that made the person's heart beat. He lifted his blurry eyes and went down. When He reached the end, he got used to the dark, he saw an iron decoration that gave a somewhat antique feeling. [Personal shopper] It was found that the sign was made of high-quality materials that seemed neat and elegant. This was the shop where only one person could make a reservation a day. The waiting list was long and there were few customers, but the shop was rumored to be beautiful. It was even salty for people liked staying only in-house and didn't think they would go well with shopping. "This, this, all, all, all, it's like a scam." The deposit for reservation alone was quite expensive. He paid for that, too. Among the few acquaintances, the satisfaction of those who had been there was high. It was from the person that he met on the Internet, if he had to say he knew. The man alternately looked at the signs that did not match his shabby clothes, and thought of the deposit he had made for a reservation. That's the deposit, and if the deal was made today, the rest of the money would be withdrawn. Even if he would cancel, the deposit would not come back. Personal shoppers are helping individuals shop, so he brought money for shopping. Thanks to it, his wallet was thick. He could have just gone for an PC room with the money. He thought he couldn't help it even if they took off the deposit. But something was missing. Everyone said it was a fantastic experience. He heard that the items they shopped after that were perfect, too. For some reason, He roughly wiped his sweaty palms on his pants. With a determined look, he came down the stairs further and grabbed the doorknob on the left.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Category Fiction > Yaoi Fiction > Short Story Fiction > Korean Fiction (Web Novel) Summary YooHyun is the sonbai everyone likes in the school. SeungHee is the one of the students admire YooHyun but as a gay, he just wanders around the sonbai. Whenever YooHyun meets a new girlfriend, SeoungHee drinks a lot of soju and just complains about his life. However, YooHyun and SeungHee share something unknown to everyone. #modernSetting #college #senior/sonbai #comedy #foolishMistakes #innocentSoo #timidSoo * This short story of yaoi/BL is translated from from the original Korean short web-novel. (text only, no illustration) Tables Of Contents Title Page Body Content Copyright (20 pages in approx. print length) Preview "I’m really fucked." "Why is Yoon SeungHee like this?" "Isn’t it because Jung YooHyun, the sonbai's CC exploded?" "Oh, so is it?" Because of the abundant repertoire, YoungWon and DanWoo immediately remembered the reason. Then SeungHee slammed the table with Tang! "No, fuck it. 'Cause I'm fucked!" "No? Or what?" "I can’t say that. I'm leaving. Don't catch me." "If you drop out, who will put his grades under mine now?" SeungHee poured a full soju glass into his mouth and at the same time struck Ko YoungWon's neck with the blade of his hand. YoungWon was drinking water, and he squeaked and gulped. Every time SeungHee announced he's leaving the school, the women YooHyun met changed. Then SeungHee behaved bluntly, saying that the trees that couldn't be climbed were only growing. SeungHee beat his heart in a frustrated mood. Even though they were pounding with both hands like a gorilla, the grill with the meat on them was more serious to his friends. Is it wrong for me to believe that these people are friends and go out with them, or is the problem with those assholes who can't even empathize with their friend's sorrow? SeungHee was looking into the air with eyes that had lost his soul for a moment. "In that case, confess to YooHyun, the sonbai." "That's not allowed." "Then give up." "Neither can it." If you have decided on the answer you want, it would be convenient to just give that answer like an AI speaker without a soul. However, because of Yoon SeungHee, who had no answer, the two decided to pay more attention to the meat on the grill. Their faces, with their mouths closed like clams, were shouting, 'Kill that asshole, don't you?' "Wow, crazy. Just a second." The cell phone lying on the table vibrated strongly. SeungHee, who was looking at the screen in annoyance, went out of the store. He accepted a call from [Sonbai Jung Yoohyun] who appeared on the vibrating cell phone without a break after hiding in a corner alley. He also covered the his ear where the phone wasn't on with my finger to avoid losing my voice. He waited for a voice to come from this side, but there was not even a small noise as if waiting like SeungHee. "Hey, how are you?" [Where are you.] It was difficult to recognize his emotions just from his voice. SeungHee's neck was shortened because of the strong shoulder. 'Where is this place...' Without noticing, while reciting the name of the restaurant where he was drinking and the small alley next to it, he heard a sigh of YooHyun and sighed. This was not the answer YooHyun wanted. "Hey, that, I, I, I’ll go. Where are you, sonbai?" [Yeah, I'm on the way to getting organized now. Shall we meet in the middle?] "Yeah, would it?" [Then let's meet at the front door in 10 minutes.] "Yes, yes?"
