The World Seems Realistic But Why Do I Have A Leveling System? Chapter 110
Advertisement
When the bell was just ringing, Angelica was cleaning her desk while the other students immediately bid farewell to the teacher before sprinting as if the life on the line toward the exit. Once she was finished with her business, the classroom is now empty as the other students had already gone home. After living in this region for a whole week by now, Angelica started to feel that the air in the surrounding has somehow changed, it's like the 'mystical power' has thickened for a reason she didn't know. It was a good thing for people like her when such a thing happened as that meant she can use her power much more, but to normal people, it's like they are living in a place where the air was poisoned and if the 'poison' inside the body reached their limit, the result would their death.
But on rare cases, some would 'awaken' to the mystical world when their body adapted to the 'mystical power', someone like her. Angelica was a very rare case as she was born with a body that was already adapted to the 'mystical power' and it didn't take her long before she could use the power within her with the help of her family.
When Angelica arrived in front of the hotel, the onlooker couldn't help but give a second glance at her as normally, no student could bear staying in a hotel for a period amount of time with how pricy it is yet, the red-haired girl wearing a school uniform in their view had already paid for a whole month without any change on her face, with just that the onlooker understood it clearly as she must be from a rich and influential family. And knowing that, some of the men who have a good look had tried to talk to her but most of them were shut down by her gaze, as for the persistent ones, all she had to do was to call the bodyguard and she won't be seeing them anymore.

Ignoring the gazes directed to her, Angelica went to the elevator and press on the button for the 22nd Floor.
Ding!
Unlocking the door to her room, Angelica steps inside before removing her clothes one by one and put it in a corner and walks toward the closet. After browsing for a whole ten minutes, Angelica finally picked up a comfortable outfit for the day. Since it was her mother who gives her the current mission, Angelica went to the cabinet before opening it and taking a normal-looking compass with her. On her previous mission, Angelica had tried to use it for finding the killer when she arrived at the scene in the alleyway, but it was to no avail. The compass didn't give any response to her, in the end, she had asked her mother and the replied was, someone of that caliber definitely has a way to bypass the power from the compass, so it was not a surprise that it didn't work as you expected.
And 'someone of that caliber' right now was currently running away from the Ogre that was chasing after her, she only stopped when the latter had given up on the chase, finally, she could take a breath before continuing her grinding. Sheila had accidentally stepped inside the range of the boss when she was dodging the attack from the hobgoblins which immediately alert the Ogre from afar and right after killing off the hobgoblins, the Ogre was already right behind her. But this was another matter that was better yet not known to the two.
Once the compass was in her hands, Angelica immediately used it to see if there's any member from The Church in the district. Though it takes a while, eventually she received a response and within her mind, though the other presence is far away from her current location, she didn't expect to feel one of their presence directly above her. Even more of a shock was that the presence somehow feels familiar to her, she even began to consider whether to give a visit. After pondering for a few minutes, Angelica decides to head upstairs and once she arrived in front of the door of the room before knocking on the door a couple of times.

"Yes, yes, I'm coming."
Once she feels the presence coming closer towards the door, Angelica immediately retreated to a corner to hide before sneakily look toward the person who came out of the room with a confused expression on her face as she looked around, when she didn't find any person in the hallways, the blond-haired girl went back into her room.
"What is that girl doing here? I remembered her telling me that she would be staying in Italy for a couple of months for business, but then why is she here? She is not the type to lie, did her schedule change or something?"
Angelica softly muttered to herself with a complex expression on her face. But even so, just what in the world is the church doing in this remote place that required the presence of a Saintess? Did they find out the mysterious specialist that killed the Outsider? Although they didn't have a Compass of Guidance, they do have an artifact of their own. But from the presence that she felt spreading all over the district, she didn't believe it. They must have come here for another purpose.
Now that she knows that they are here, she needs to investigate more on what is their purpose before reporting to her superior- Mother. Her previous mission ended up with nothing that can be used as a result, now that she was given another mission, Angelica was determined to do her best. For the next few days, Angelica spent most of her time secretly trailing after the member of the church, and it was not long before she figured out their purpose. And on it was on the same day that she almost died due to her negligence and if not for someone coming in to save her, she would have not survived to this day.
But her mind shook when she looked up to the person who had come to her rescue, it was none other Sheila, who was also staring back at her with a wry smile on her face.

Seeking Elysium
Elysium Ling is a returnee. She’s been to an alternate world, coerced into fighting their wars, and somehow returned alive. Now, 13 years later, she finds herself again taken to a foreign world – this time, by her own choice. Not the same world that she returned from, but a foreign world nonetheless. There, struggling in an unknown world, utterly alone, she has a chance encounter with a young lady with a lovely voice. An encounter which would spark a chain of events that would irrevocably shape the world around them. That young lady’s name is Rosalind. This is her story. Disclaimer/Trigger Warnings (Please Read!) THIS WORK WILL MOST LIKELY CONTAIN BOTH HOMOSEXUAL AND INCESTUOUS UNDERTONES. IT WILL ALSO HAVE OCCASIONAL DESCRIPTIONS OF GORE THAT CAN GET REASONABLY GRAPHIC. PLEASE DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU ARE UNDER THE LEGAL AGE IN YOUR COUNTRY TO CONSUME SUCH CONTENT AS MENTIONED ABOVE, OR IF YOU ARE TRIGGERED BY HOMOSEXUALITY, GORE OR INCEST. Notes on Relation to Lily Ex Machina While this story is intended to be a sequel to my first work, Lily Ex Machina (LxM), I will be writing it in a manner that does not require readers to have read LxM to understand it. While having read LxM will likely enhance your enjoyment of this work(I hope), I am intending for this story to be able to stand on its own legs. As such, certain worldbuilding elements that I have expanded upon in LxM will likely be repeated in Seeking Elysium(SEly). As such, for newcomers, it should not be an issue to follow this story without prior knowledge of LxM. On the other hand, for my returning readers, I do beg your forgiveness for forcing you to read through stuff you already know. I’ll do my best to try and make it interesting, but no guarantees of success, I’m afraid. On the other hand, if you’re a newcomer to this series and enjoy SEly, I do hope you’ll take the time to read Lily Ex Machina as well, if only to get more information of the backstories of some characters. Update Schedule I will only post completed volumes on RRL; if you would like to follow the story while it is ongoing, you may do so at my website. I update twice a week, on Wednesdays and Sundays. Supporters on my Patreon get access to chapters a day earlier.

RE: DEVTHOR
From a certain author's perspective, the world he lived in had always been a boring uninteresting place. If asked if he could name one good thing about it, he probably couldn't. Up until forty, he lived in complete isolation and solitude, but he never once regretted or felt dissatisfied about the kind of life he lived. But despite being content with such a lifestyle, it seems some god... or perhaps some busybody devil galavanting about playing pretend god was immensely dissatisfied with the way he lived his life and wanted to play a sick joke on him by sending him back to his first day in high school after he died a mysterious death. Approached by a suspicious red-haired girl shortly after awakening and recognizing where he was, he's abruptly given a second chance at a youth filled with romance. But what does this forty years old man turned sixteen do when confronted with youth? He flips youth off and tells it to take a hike, he's having none of it. If there was some sort of godly existence watching over him from somewhere unknown, their only natural reaction would be to facepalm and question what was wrong with this incompetent romanceless idiot who knew nothing of love. Low fantasy only really starts to appear around volume 3. Presently there are 7 volumes for this series totaling about 850k words.
