The King's Beloved

Hi Beloved Readers!

Welcome to another EXTRA chapter!!!

But before we start, I would like to take this chance to sincerely apologize to all of my readers especially to those who have been waiting eagerly for my updates. I'm terribly sorry for all the filler chapters I've been publishing and for my delays of updating them, even missing my promised dates most of the time. For this, I am truly, deeply sorry. T_T

(bows in 'dogeza')

As I announced previously, a lot happened to me this past few months - my grandmother's passing, getting sick, medicating but not working so I had to go under operation, then the flood and a lot of other things as well. T_T It was hard but I got through with the help of many people … family, friends, even you all, my beloved readers, and most of all, the Most High. 

Thank you so much for all the support. T_T I can't express how thankful I am that you're still sticking with me despite all my failures and broken promises.

Right now, I'm working on catching up on all my filler chapters and finally, we're transitioning to "Volume 3: Twilight Arc: When Night and Day Meets…". I may not be able to update daily this December as I work on my missing chapters, for that, I'm really sorry. I'm just finishing this November but for December, I won't publish filler chapters anymore. I met the 1k privilege so I should be able to get a decent amount of features that I need. Thank you so much for everyone helping me buy my privilege T_T. Thank you very, very much! 

For those who caught up with my chapters and are waiting for my updates, don't worry, I might be a bit slow right now but I will definitely catch up and will never drop this story. (Please skip chapters 191 to 202 though! I made a mistake on those chapters so please don't unlock them. I'm really sorry). I'm a hybrid of an "outline writer" and "discovery writer" but I already have the whole story plotted out until the end. "Outline writers" are those who plot their story from beginning to end or up to climax at least, and like to organize their story, while "Discovery Writers" are those who are not bound by outlines and write whatever comes to mind as the story goes on. I'm 70% of an outline writer and the rest, discovery. This helps me lessen the loop holes as I don't want a story filled with plot holes as much as possible. And of course, I do my best to make it as entertaining and as unpredictable as I can.

I am still a newbie writer but thank you so much for taking an interest in my story and reading it. I hope my measly skills were able to bring joy, hope, inspiration, and warmed your hearts even a bit. I'll keep on working hard to improve my skills and hope to entertain you more as my story goes on and for the future stories I will write.

Speaking of future stories, I have 3 ideas that I've been plotting for some time now. I'll publish them one at a time since I still write slow T_T You can expect them to come once "The King's Beloved" is completed. (You may have noticed one of them on the filler chapters)

Having said that, I would like to introduce the synopsis of the 3 ideas I have and would like your help on deciding which one to prioritize after TKB. Please comment the title of the story you vote for me to write first. Whichever has the most vote by the end of TKB, that will be the story I'll prioritize. Here are the stories I have in mind:

(Please see paragraph comment for sample book cover)

1. "Mischievous Alice: The Eye of Hermes"

Synopsis:

Iris was living a normal life until one day, she saw a child in danger and quickly jumped in to save him. 

Unfortunately, this caused her life to end...or so it seems.

To her surprise, she woke up as a newborn baby named "Alice" and she remembers the memories of her previous life! Not only that, she also gained a very rare gift coveted by all merchants - the "Eyes of Hermes"!!!

With her gift and the ability to "appraise" and "refine" treasures, she trains herself to be the best of the best and earn lots of gold while she's at it.

Alice's Monologue:

"I'm definitely gonna enjoy this life to the fullest!"

"I'm gonna build my own harem of handsome men!"

"I'm gonna be rich and do anything I want!"

Note: This will be a fantasy romance where MC will start as a small child born in a loving family and has a lot of potential in terms of magic. There will be a system too! Where she can upgrade her skills and learn lots of things! Romance will come on the middle part of the story but main characters and supporting characters will meet at the beginning once FL goes to school XD This will be a chill and fluffy story with not much drama, only magic, with the intention of purely entertaining.

2. "Something Indescribable"

Synopsis: 

"What the mind can't perceive, the heart feels" 

Original by Macy_Bae

There was once a very powerful hero who saved the world countless times. He was so amazing and strong that no one could defeat him. And so he became the symbol of peace, hope and inspiration to everyone. 

But then one day, he became mad - really mad to the point that he wants to destroy the whole planet. Now, Asha, Alexander, and Kerensa, embark on a journey to defeat this very formidable foe and save the world, discovering love, friendship and dreams along the way.

But then again, Fate and Destiny seems to have an entirely different plan for them.

Asha's Monologue:

"I've been getting this…..weird feeling lately. 

Like….there's something….missing.

Something I can't describe but I know that it's important.

Yes, very important. But then…

What is it?"

Note: This is also fantasy romance and will be a bit like TKB in the mystery sense and unpredictable plot. This story is half fantasy half romance and FL, together with supporting characters will travel the whole world in order to defeat the villain … but then again, there's more to the villain that nobody knew and a whole lot of mystery as to why and how it all happened. There will be drama and chapters that will make you cry, but it will have comedy as well and action scenes like TKB.

3. "How to Seduce the Villain Emperor!"

Synopsis:

"Everything began as a dream … a 'wet dream' to be exact, heh! Or so I thought …"

Arabella Wisteria, 20 years old, a normal human girl who loved playing games, watching kdramas, and reading comics or novels. Of all the games she played, her favorite was "Last Dream", and out of the 15 installments it had, the 3rd one was her most treasured one. Why?

"Because the villain emperor is so freaking HOT, of course! He's my type from head to foot. And if I'm gonna marry a fictional character, it's gotta be him! <3"

One night, Arabella slept after playing nonstop for days and when she woke up, she was in a different bedroom! And what's more surprising was that, on the bed laid a very handsome man, sleeping peacefully.

"Wait a minute! T-this man … could he be? Yes! There's no mistaking it! That perfect face! And a perfect body! With perfect abs! And a big *toot* … My husbando, Rexel Auriolus! OMG! Now, this is what you call a great wet dream, heh. I guess it's time to indulge myself." 

And so, our wild but still a virgin Arabella, molested this handsome, and also a virgin emperor, Rexel, thinking it was all a dream.

"Ouch! W-why does it … hurt?"

"Who the hell are you?!" the emperor woke up and suddenly grabbed her by the neck. He quickly stood up and flipped their positions. Arabella, who was on top of him a moment ago, was now below him. "Are you an assassin? Who sent you? Speak up!"

"Ahhh … w-wait, don't move, it hurts," Arabella groaned, as tears fell from the corner of her eyes.

That's when the emperor finally realized what was happening. There was this … warm, and soft, and something "good" that he felt down his manhood. Still grabbing her neck, he looked down. Seeing what he was seeing, the virgin emperor almost fainted from shock and his face turned beet red!

"W-w-what in the world -" he didn't finish what he was about to say for his soul left him and he fell back to bed dead. Just kidding, of course, he's not really dead.

Arabella stopped her mischievousness since it was too painful for her and fell asleep beside the emperor. Morning came, and after a lot of threatening and misunderstanding and fighting, she managed to come into terms with the angry emperor. All with the help of a certain "marriage contract".

That's not all, she discovered that she somehow transmigrated to the world of her favorite game, and there's a system she could use to improve her physical and magical skills! All skills in fact, literally - including her favorite …

"Oh, I can increase my climax duration? Let's increase it to 30 seconds! How nice is that, huh?"

As she was enjoying her time flirting and seducing her beloved emperor, she didn't forget that his role was still a villain ...

"But he only became a villain because of a certain somebody! So I'm gonna do my best to protect him from that person while driving off all those bitches away from him! Yeah, that's my plan! Then, I can peacefully enjoy my life here, heh."

And so, Arabella's new life starts now!

Note: This is the most recent idea I had so synopsis is still not fixed. This story is more of a romantic comedy with fantasy in it since it's a reincarnation story. I'm thinking of writing it in "first person" but I'm not so sure which type of POV most readers like so please let me know in the comments. One thing here, like the first two options, FL is badass but this FL will be the most mischievous of them all XD and funny. Also, there will be a lot of smut chapters too so be warned! This will be a chill and funny romance story with a possessive FL doing her best to seduce the emperor while being in a contract marriage with him. This trope is a bit of a cliche since there's a lot of contract marriage stories and reincarnations but I hope to write it on my own way and hopefully entertain everyone XD. There won't be major drama here as well so you're in for a chill ride if you choose this. Oh, and there will be a system too!

And that's it! Thank you so much again everyone! Please let me know which one is your favorite in the comment section below! Or you can message me in discord, the link is in the author's notes. <3

Have a great day! Love you all! <3
