WARNING: MATURE AUDIENCE ONLY. "You're mine, Witch." His voice hardened. "Your life that I saved? The one that would've been WASTED if I hadn't acted? Belongs to ME. And you will do only as I please, exactly as I say, until-" "Over my dead body!" I hissed, suddenly filled with anger. "That can be arranged," Hans said easily. Then with a smile that was anything but pleasant: "Or you can steal for me instead. Kill for me, if I tell you to. Either way, you stay where I can see you. Night and day." "I'm no puppet." I held his silver gaze with a glare. "And I'm definitely no murderer." "No, but you're a thief. One that's now forever indebted to me." ~•|•~ She steals power. This time, she stole the wrong one. ~•|•~ The Black Market of Erendale runs on the trade of magic ripped from its owners and sold to the highest bidder. Eclipse knows the game. As a Siphoner, a rare witch who can drain abilities with a touch, she survives by robbing the powerful and selling to the even more powerful... until she accidentally takes the essence of Hans de la Mort, the demon of Erendale himself. Crossing him should mean death. Instead, he offers her a deal: she'll return his power when the time is right, and until then, she and her siphoning abilities belong to him. She was his prisoner. His prey. And dangerously, the one who made his demon want to play. Every job she's forced to do pulls them closer to danger-and closer to each other. But when Eclipse uncovers a plot to overthrow him, she's faced with an impossible choice: return his power and lose the only leverage keeping her alive... or keep it, and risk losing everything. Including him.

Reverend Insanity: The Goody Two-Shoes System

Man is the spirit of all things, and gu are the refined fragments of the Great Dao. The ambition which blooms with the spring's morning breeze withers at the call of autumn's night. The accumulation of five hundred years - triumphs and failures - will be naught but ash with dawn's first light. The rising of the sun bathes the mountains in golden flame, but 'tis sunset upon the demon's time. The demonic overlord, Fang Yuan, is cornered by his enemies after word gets out that he refined the Spring Autumn Cicada - a gu worm rumored to be capable of having a chance at sending one back in time but demands a terrifying price in return - the user's entire existence! With no hope of escape, in desperation, Fang Yuan uses the Spring Autumn Cicada which miraculously lives up to its name and sends him back in time. And now, he's back in Gu Yue Village as a fifteen-year-old ready to use his knowledge of the future to conquer the world... but there's something wrong. Something is quite different this time around. What's with this new notification that keeps popping up in his view? It calls itself 'The Goody Two-Shoes System.' It also starts giving him quests to complete. "Help Fang Zheng gain his confidence back!" - get a Green Copper Relic Gu! "Help your friends refine their gu worms!" - have your aptitude raised by 2%! All of these rewards and quests before him, why are they trying to convert this demonic overlord to the path of righteousness? And aren't some of these quests kind of... sus? Why does marrying Bai Ning Bing give him an immortal gu? Whatever, anything for benefits! This is a fanfiction based on Gu Zhen Re's work 'Reverend Insanity' known in Chinese as 蛊真人 or 'Gu Taoist Master'. I don't own the rights to the original work. 'Gu' in the context of this story are mystical insects that have various powers and are the basis of the world's cultivation system.
