Chapter 219 - ACTIVE

Yanarym was able to perform her duty as the most perfect girlfriend Lawrence could have. Minus the sexy times since she didn't initiate any sex activities between them. And Lawrence was not really interested in sex, well, he is but he was so respectful of her. He would only talk about it if she insisted but if she didn't bring it up they would not converse regarding that matter.

Lawrence had a lot of changes, it's a shame that they have to break up when the time comes. He never cheated on her, he was actually avoiding women who were flirting with him. His character from the original book was becoming him as of the present. Playing and goofing around was no longer his fun, he was more like a mature man with a plan. Even his colleagues were surprised by the drastic improvement of his characteristics.

Cailly, who left half a year ago for her career in fashion designing, was deeply in love with Lawrence. Of course, this kind of sauce couldn't get passed through Yanarym. She knew that there was something going on with them from the very day that Cailly had a crush on her male lead.

If Yanarym could manage to pull it off, maybe she could cupid Lawrence and Cailly together once Movu was back again in the picture. But she wasn't sure, at this point on, she was crawling in the dark. She must be extra careful with her steps or else it will backfire on her big time. 

Yazeno moved out from the mansion too. He was studying at the university where all his siblings went. He took the same course as Yanarym and he lived in the dormitories on campus. Yashnile was still together with Maddi, as of now, Maddi was nothing but his excuse for his madness in loving his own sister. She really became Yanarym's substitute. 

Luckily, that day when she woke up on the resort in Yazeno's room and heard every single detail of Guide-sama's report while eating her breakfast on the bed she had a clear mind although her head was buzzing from a hangover. She used Yazeno's harassment indirectly to attack both of the brothers who sexually fantasized her that night. With that, she didn't sweat leaving them behind. Occasionally they meet up altogether and celebrate family day. Just like this one, Yashnile said that they could rest for the week before the grand opening of the new resort. This wasn't supposed to happen but it did. Because of what happened to her on the recent assignment. She deliberately let someone shoot her arm, unfortunately, her pain tolerance is at zero, she almost died because of the pain but luckily, this body was fast to recover.

In that way, she could make an excuse for slowly leaving Lawrence's side. It's heartless and cold-hearted but she had to end it, it's just that they were not meant to be. The real owner of her was no other than the main villain and not the male protagonist. Even the wish of the original was mainly concerned for the male villain. 

"I was waiting for you." Yazeno removed his headphones and smiled at Yanarym when he saw her walking in his direction.

"I thought you left first?" 

"No, I waited." He kissed her cheeks before picking up her luggage and leading the way to their private plane. "How is your wound?" 

"It's healing, I can move my arms around too."

"Don't twist it like that," he scolded, "It might get infections or something. The stitches might have opened up." 

"Don't be silly, haven't you learned about this on one of your subjects?" Yanarym said, "Or Zen, can't you change your course into something safer?" 

"I have already spent a year Ate, there's no turning back. Besides, I'm like you, I never listen." 

"At least listen to me. I will be quitting my job because that was all of your wishes. I love the thrill but I love you more." Yazeno didn't rebut that. 

He didn't want to become a policeman, he entered this course on a whim. He thought that maybe if he became someone as cool as Lawrence, Yanarym would notice him as someone more than a brother, but that was nothing but wishful thinking. He was never the type of a man to belong to a battlefield, he's more intellectual just like his siblings. 

"I think I will major in forensic." He said when he buckled his seatbelt. 

"Really? That would be safer but a lot more creepy. Are you ready to see a ghost?" She jested which made him laugh not because of the joke itself but because she was trying hard to make it sound funny. 

"What? I'm not a scared cat." 

"Said by the kid who always hides behind me when we watch horror films?" Yazeno had a little smile and looked at her with serious eyes. 

"I'm no longer a kid." Yanarym widens her smile and pinches his cheeks. 

"So, that's why you were partying all night and taking a bunch of girls to the hotel? Because you're no longer a kid?" Yazeno's eyes widened by this surprise interrogation. 

"Where did you hear that?" 

"I have my ways, and don't even lie to me, you will make me more disappointed than I am." He gulped and looked away. 

That was the truth because he couldn't have her. He dedicated himself to his misery and those girls, they offered themselves to him, he just granted their wishes. But hearing that Yanarym knew what he was doing, he felt ashamed, what does she think of him? He left the sanctuary for her not to notice his feelings but he was caught for something different. 

"Hey, young man, it's normal to have your sex life active." He heard her words of wisdom that he hadn't heard for ages. But he was not comfortable talking to her about this subject. Just the thought of her being active with Lawrence made him feel furious. 

????Must Read from Ran (the writer)????

Happy Holidays, my mischievous Reds!

There is something that I have to announce. This is very important, so, you have to read this. First of all, I would like to acknowledge everyone for staying with Yanarym throughout the three worlds. It is not the end though. As you can see the fourth world is just starting to get published—on privilege. 

Anyways, Let's try to get from the bottom of this… 

I will tell you the World after Worlds and Yanarym's history—the reason for existing—and the other character and arcs as well. 

I've been in reader's mode from November 2020 until February 2021, from fluff manhwas to rated 18 Chinese raw novels. Then, I got dissatisfied and horny. So, I started writing '«World after Worlds»' by March 2021 for fun. It was after I read "Being Papa'd Every Time I Transmigrate" by caffeine. Yanarym's character was inspired by the female lead of that novel, Ruan Jiaojiao. However, her character design was based on a person I know... But I made sure that even though they are similar, they are not the same. I hope you get what I mean. 

Regarding the inspiration novel, don't get me wrong, I really liked it but it was not enough. After all, I am just a young hot-blooded human like everyone else. So, I did my very version of fantasy-erotic-romance-adventure to satisfy my lust. Lol. 

Alyx was inspired by the most common characters of the male leads that we often encounter in the romance genre. Women always loved fictitious men that is domineering, powerful, handsome, charismatic, rich, and tall—possessive? They just like that. Alvan came from a real person but I somehow managed to make two totally diverse personalities. Kane was the dream guy of Yanarym's character design. She loves Kane. 

'World after Worlds' is my first English novel. This was not written in English at the beginning, I was intending to write it on Wattpad in my nation's language in Filipino. 

The reason why 'WaW' ended up in Webnovel and was translated to a language I am not used to. Was because of the WSA contest. Unfortunately, I will not win that, yet, because of that, I decided to pursue my passion in writing after being contracted. 

I'm actually pessimistic when it comes to myself. I thought 'WaW' would not get much attention. So, after getting contracted and establishing the privilege thing. I was so surprised when someone purchased the highest tier. I told my friends, "someone really spent money on my shits." That night, was when I realized, It is not shitty at all. I wrote a pretty good damn story! But there's something wrong with it. 

As I mentioned, this was not originally written in English. I am from the Philippines, my mother tongue is Tagalog. I can speak and write English but I am not very fluent and I am not a professional writer either. I write Tagalog short stories for fun—I studied Chemical Engineering—I dropped out of college though. I was planning to get back this year enrolling in Psychology but I changed my plan again. I want to pursue writing novels. Anyways, why is Ran blabbering so much? What is this all about? We don't want to hear stuff about yourself, just update! 

...please keep reading...

August 2021, I published the "second version", the English version. The first version was the Tagalog version. 

When I first translated WaW, it was such a disaster. I shared it with my friend—she liked criticism and I was sizzled—she did not read WaW. Her reason was, the grammar and errors were all over the place. She offered some help and I paid for her assistance. She edited the first ten chapters of the first world, then the first two chapters of the second world, and the seven chapters of the fourth world. Then, I did the rest. 

As you all have already read, there were still too many grammatical errors, typos, and it's just chaotic. I am not even sure how my very first readers managed to understand the first translated version. Even I, the 'writer' after re-reading it, was too ashamed to call myself the writer. My low self-esteem dropped at rock bottom. I am a big-time sucker in English literature or grammatical rhetoric. But I dream of becoming a writer... Well, I guess it isn't a dream anymore. I am one. Right now. Not professionally. Still. I am one. 

In all honesty, I DON'T LIKE READING ENGLISH NOVELS. I like pictures. I like manga, manwha, webtoon, webcomics, movies, Tagalog Wattpad stories, anime... Except for reading English novels. So, about the basic rules of writing a novel, I don't have any idea. I would rather solve equations and analyze problems than be in literature. But! I love imagining stories in my head, especially in romance and actions. 

And sometimes I want to materialize those stories in our world to share them with anyone. Just to say that they existed. Anyway, my talent is only portraying those scenarios in my head. Not conveying them rhetorically. 

My 21st Birthday will be in February 2022. Before that day comes I want to polish worlds 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 and publish it on hardbound as a gift for myself. If it becomes an actual book, I could say, it will become proof that the 20th year of my existence on earth was not spent on useless things. 

So, I would like to take some time off. 

THIS IS WHAT IS ALL ABOUT! I would like to polish 'World after Worlds' for the third time, hopefully, the last time.

To do that.

I need time! I know I asked this before. Way back to my first readers but as you can see, it still needs some work. I've decided that I have to vanish for months to focus on editing/revising/polishing/proofreading. 

January, February, March, April, and maybe until May—World after Worlds will be at PAUSE. I will edit the entire five worlds worthy of every cent you spent. (I am still amazed that there are people who would buy the privileges; thank you m00nah, Macxoxo2, and Chyleah) (I feel so appreciated with Heane)

Once I return I will not disappoint anyone. Also, there will be changes when I come back. 

•Each world will have 100 chapters. Maybe 150. Not sure. But they will all have the same count of chapters. World 1,2,3,4, and 5. 

•Challenges and Rewards will be implemented. [I will temporarily remove this but it will be posted at the Auxiliary Volume] 

•This book will be titled 'The Beginning: World After Worlds'. 

[Originally, my plan was ten worlds. But I decided to settle for five worlds in this book; 1. Brightest Star, 2. Hara, 3. Miss Officer, 4. Azkin's Curse, and 5. Honey Trap] 

I am not sure how long it will take for me to finish editing, revising, polishing, and editing it again before finalizing the existing chapters by proofreading. I want to take my time yet five months will be the maximum deadline for me. I don't want to let you hang for so long. 

I will be needing some alpha readers as well.

You can participate in being one. What are they? They are the readers that can give comments and suggestions to change the plot or characters. Two to five would be sufficient, if anyone was willing to spend their spare time with me and share their opinions regarding 'World after Worlds', please contact me at:

Anyways, some might be asking, "Just five worlds? What about the other five worlds? You said it was originally ten." 

The sixth, seventh, eighth, ninth, and tenth worlds will be published in different sets of books. Unlike the arcs in this book, which will contain 100 chapters, the sixth to the tenth world will consist of 300-500 chapters. It depends though… because the plotline is bigger and the characters will be huge in number too, the chapters have to increase as well. Yanarym's harem will be larger in nlumber and I promise that the interaction of each male lead is more dynamic and interactive. 

For example, the sixth world. Which was the "Crown of the King", Yanarym will have five official lovers. The adventure will be in detail and not summarized in a

thought .Those five will have their own moment with her. Not just sex scenes— 

So, H-scenes, regarding this, I will do my best to explore porn sites, read Rated18 novels to gain experience. Nonetheless, you can't expect anything from a physical virgin writer. I'm just a dirty-minded person. And I am certain that I can't get devirginized in the near future because I will be rooting in my room. Focusing on my newly chosen career because my mom is not happy with what I decided, I should try to prove myself to her. 

That's all! I hope everyone can understand my situation. The next updates that you will read are from the privilege chapters. I guess by February that will run out. See you soon, Reds! 

P.S. If you are being benevolent for this holiday season. The season of giving. I hope that you can rate World after Worlds "5" stars to attract the other readers while I am gone. We all know that no one prefers books that are not 5 stars. Am I trying to bribe you–is that the term or something else? Yes? Maybe no? Hahaha. What I'm saying is, please give "World after Worlds" a good review. I prefer sugar-coated lies. Since this is the season of sweets, let me have a taste of it.

Ciao, naughty souls.
