Harry Evans Chapter 59: Looming shadow
The next few days passed peacefully for Harry. He practised potions and prepared for his other exams. Arithmancy was actually something of an actual challenge, and he was finding that it took about as much time as all the other core subjects, sans potions, combined. It was also, on the other hand, incredibly useful. He...
General update and gathering first chapter suggestions
Hello, hello. After that weird time that was Christmas I've arrived back in Zürich and have started working through my seminar papers and writing responsibilities. Everything has been going as well as before I left, and I've been pumping out Harry Evans, Rattata and Video Game cultivator chapters at the approp...
Rattata Chapter 24: The rat race
The day on which Joey was to face Surge did not start overly well. For one, it was raining, which forced him to leave the house with an umbrella, something that he hated. Secondly, despite quite an ardent search, he had not managed to find a third Pokemon for the gym battle. This meant that he would be facing search wi...
Harry Evans Chapter 58: Things are brewing
Harry leaned back against the wall next to the defence against the dark arts class-room and reread the letter he'd received.It was unfortunate that the werewolf attack occurred on the evening after which your story was coming out. It would have been front-page otherwise. It's still a victory however, and while ...
Video Game Cultivator Chapter 8: Bad memories
The hysterical exclamation that there was a monster on the loose would perhaps have suggested that Elder Flower and Jin would immediately run out to hunt said monster.However, the statement was not actually that informative and inner disciple Ting was too scared to truly give them more information than that.It was here...
Video Game Cultivator Chapter 7: Travel the world, meet interesting people, kill them
It was after another three weeks of tutelage from Elder Flower that Jin was standing in the mission room of the middle ring. Well, calling it tutelage was probably an overly enthusiastic way of describing it. They rarely met, and Flower simply directed his training, telling him what to focus on and giving him the oppor...
Rattata Chapter 23: Money, money, money, must be funny, in a...
Joey idly stretched his arms to the left and to the right as he exited Saffron onto route 7. He hadn't been here for a while, having spent a lot of time recently on route 8. In his limited experience, that was the place where the toughest trainers hung out, and he'd been missing out on some ass-kickings recentl...
Harry Evans Chapter 57: Consequences
Harry was not unused to going to sleep in a state of anxious waiting. He'd lived more than thirty years now, and he'd experienced it all. Going to sleep a day before a medical operation, dreaming about having one's sides cut open to remove a swollen appendix. Going to sleep with a family member in the ER af...
General update
I haven't really talked about it much, but my forearm got pretty badly cramped a few months ago and hasn't really recovered perfectly. I went to the physiotherapist today, actually the physiotherapist for the national football team, my gf's dad is a sports producer so that's the connection, and he told ...
How to train your rattata Chapter 22: The unbeatable type-check
As the deadline for the next gym battle approached, Joey nervously started to consider the possibility that he would be facing Surge with just two Pokemon. No matter how open he tried to be to the idea of a new team member, he never quite managed to meet a pokemon that really fit his idea of what a professional battler...
Poll Winning vote: Sabrina
Aight aight aight. I see Sabrina has won the vote, quite convingly. I will now start working on her interlude chapter. I'll likely combine it into the story around the time of Joey's third gym-battle against Surge. Which is going to be around chapter 25-26 I'd say. I will start another poll for the first ch...
Harry Evans Chapter 56: The safest place in the world
Harry had been standing disillusioned in the corner of the room in Hogwarts that had been used to teach ball-room dancing centuries ago for approximately fifteen minutes when a beetle finally flew in through a window that he'd opened, and transformed into Rita Skeeter. The reporter stumbled in her high heels from t...
How to train your Rattata Chapter 21: The poison master's teachings
"All right rattata, show me how far you've gotten with dig," Joey said.After having gotten their asses kicked by Lorelei last week, and hadn't that been a blast, they had quickly fallen into a routine which they were growing increasingly familiar with as they grew as a team. They trained in the mornings...
Chapter 55: the calm after the storm, the calm before the storm
Walking up the stairs to the owlery, as cracked and covered with mouse bones as they were, Harry wondered about what Dumbledore had done with the information he'd provided him. He day-dreamed that the man had already gotten rid of all the Horcruxes, went to Albania, and banished the shade hopefully wandering around...
Pokemon interlude vote
Just brought out the first chapter prototype of "Great Teacher Iruka," which means its time to vote for what the next pokemon interlude will be. After I write that we'll go for a new prototype again. Then a Harry Evans interlude.You guys have mostly helped me narrow it down to four possibilities, and now it...
Great Teacher Iruka Chapter 1
AN: This took a while, I know. But, I decided that if I'm already writing a conceptual first chapter for the story y'all voted on in the end, I might as well experiment a bit. It's why it took that long.-/-One week after the chunin exams finale and the invasionTwo men wearing black cloaks marred with red cl...
Harry Evans Chapter 54: Racoon-boy
The next few days flew by Harry as if they were farts in the wind. After having given Dumbledore the information, he obviously couldn't use the room of requirement, which is where he'd been spending most of his time in his second year at Hogwarts. However, his magical sense was developed enough that he could tr...
Video game cultivator chapter 6: The Library, the young Master, and the beautiful Flower
The tip of Jin's lance shot forward before quickly retracting again along with the wooden shaft. The jiangshi that he had just decapitated with the move fell to the ground, just as another one of the eastern zombies managed to latch itself onto his back and drag him down to the panelled floor of the mansion he was ...
Harry Evans Chapter 53: Letting go of fear and passing on
AN: Very long chapter, next one probably a bit shorter in return.Harry was sitting down in a closed and thus dark broom-cupboard. He'd been here for a few minutes, but expected that his wait would end soon. As expected at some point he noticed a presence at the door and a tenuous knock resounded through the wood.&#...
Rattata Chapter 20: Facing a future member of the Elite Four
AN: I bet you're looking forward to reading this chapter, huh? Facing a future member of the elite four. well, before you can go do that you have to waste five seconds reading this completely irrelevant author's note in which I say nothing of value! Mwahwahwahwahwahwahwahwah.-/-It wasn't long before Joey em...
Harry Evans Chapter 52: There ain't no rest for the wicked
Harry was in his dorm, writing a letter, scratching out passages, inserting new ones, remembering all the minutiea he could remember. He wasn't writing to his family, which was the usual reason he had for writing letters while at Hogwarts. No, he was writing down his so-called future knowledge. What Voldemort's...
Video game cultivator Chapter 5: Laying the foundations
Of course, simply because Elder Flower had so graciously offered Jin help that even core disciples would have likely fought to receive; this did not mean that there were not at first several other things to handle.After all, as surreal as it still felt, Jin had just passed the examination process for his ascension to b...
Harry Evans Chapter 51: Priority on W.A.S.P
AN: You thought it would be anything else, but it's me, Harry Evans!Harry was doodling on the mock test that Vector had given the class. For once it wasn't because he'd solved the entirely quite easily and now had extra-time until the time ran out. Oh, sure, such had been the case for nine of the ten questi...
Harry Evans: Chapter 50: What Cerberus?
AN: Things get a bit darkerFor all intents and purposes, things had been going rather well for Harry Evans in recent times. Having received private instructions and promises of such from very talented individuals indeed, all evidence pointed to his future development as a very powerful and skilled wizard. However, a ne...
Rattata Chapter 19: Hymns to the forgotten
Having stepped out of the eastern gate, Joey breathed in the fresh air of the pine trees and enjoyed the wide panoramic view that he got of the route. Saffron lay on a little incline, which meant that he could see quite far.There were a surprisingly high amount of trainers mingling everywhere, having spontaneous battle...
General Update
Taps mic to create a truly ungodly sound."Sorry," he whispers.Hey guys, here with a small update. Recently got some new patrons, very cool! The video game designer cultivation story is continuing and even got commissioned for a few more words per month that was originally the case, 7.5k/month -> 2x 3.75k/chapte...
Video Game Designer Cultivator Chapter 4: Old Men stuck in their ways shall foverer be done away with by the young surging upwards on the tide of new ideas.
Simply standing there and looking at the female Elder, as she held the illusion Room in her hands and looked at it with a blank gaze was an excruciating experience. And it wasn't only Jin who started getting anxious feet from the waiting, as after a few minutes even Elder Lung and Elder Qin started exchanging confu...
Harry Evans Chapter 49: Securing the mentors
"Finite," Percy Weasley invoked a bit too loudly, likely discouraged by his previous failures. They were learning the general counter-spell in today's charms class and had been put in pairs of animator and dispeller. Harry, perhaps due to being distracted, had blessed the pillow with an animation charm that...
Harry Evans Chapter 48: The passionate and the ambitious
The Hogwarts express announced itself with a loud whistle as it slowly chugged to a stop at station 9 ¾. Harry shared a glance with his aunt, who was standing reluctantly at the wall that led into the magical part of the train station. She'd wanted to accompany him to the train, to see him off properly. But due to...
Video Game Cultivator Chapter 3: the elderflower test
AN: Here is the third chapter of the story, hope you enjoy it.-/-In an event that was becoming a worrying regularity, Jin awoke while lying on the wooden floor of his hut. Despite the implications of this fact on his mental state, he quickly identified the most important factor in his current situation as the sunlight ...
