Days passed by in a flash, and before everyone knew it, snow began falling in Pyno

The roads, homes, mountain regions and everywhere else was already coated with snow, and the birds had long flown away for the season.

The trees were bare, and the cold had already kicked in at full force.

People all around the continent had already started making plans for the season by repairing their roofs and burning enough warm items.

In some regions, the snow had started earlier and had buried its inhabitants in heaps and heaps of snow.

And in other regions, the snow only lightly coated the regions.

Yes. Winter had already begun!

But even with all the harshness of winter around Pyno, Baymard was still as lively as ever.

The roads were constantly cleared, giving everyone an illusion that the winter hadn't started yet.

Every place was adequately cared for... Even the roads within the new territories were properly maintained regularly.

Everything looked peaceful and quiet.

Well, at least that's how it looked on the surface.

Within several homes, many were anxiously rushing towards the stores like crazy.

Why? Because today was the day that the world would usher in its first Manga series.

That's right. Today, Hunter X Hunter, Vol. 1. Chapter 1~2, as well as Inuyasha Volume 1. Chapter 1~2 was finally out!

.

"Oh my God! I can't believe I'm just waking up now. My alarm clock rang, and I kept snoozing it over and over. Dammit! Why does fate seem to be against me?"

"No!!!... Looking at the time, the line should be crazy long by now. I heard some of my friends say that they would go there by 6 A.M., so what chances do I have if I go there now?"

"Ahhh! The heavens are against me today. Just look at the time? Now that we've finished our exams and are on holiday, I've grown lax. And my attentiveness is no more. So now, I'm waking up late! Damn! I blame the school for this."

"Hey. We can still make it. Brother, let's go! Let's go!!"

"Then what about breakfast?"

"F***! What about it? In this situation, what would Gon do? Don't you want to know how Gon's Hunter journey begins? Forget breakfast, and let's go!!"

....

All around Baymard, several people were crazily rushing towards the stores and lining up restlessly.

They rushed to the store, ready for war!

That's right.

They knew that once the doors opened, these mangas would sell out fast!

So, as they say, the early bird gets the worm.

Everyone had rushed over with their battle gear, feeling pumped to claim their prizes.

Meanwhile, back in the palace, another war was being fought.

"Big Brother Landon, why is it so hard for you to be early just once in your life?

If we don't get there fast, everything will get sold out!" 

"Yeah. Big Brother Landon, if I don't know what happens to Kagome after she falls into the hole, I won't be able to sleep well at night!_

That's why I have to get Inuyasha volume 1 today!!!"

"_"

Landon looked at the duo, who had turned themselves into his alarm clock and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Why did these 2 always think that he was always late?

He was already up 2 hours ago, alright?

Well, he couldn't blame them.

After all, as an Otaku, he, more than anyone else, knew the excitement he felt whenever he was waiting for his favourite manga to get updated.

Before today, they had only allowed Chapter 1 of both Inuyasha and Hunter x Hunter to get sold out in stores.

That's right.

The first chapter was released around the last week of November, just after the exams.

And flash forward to now, almost everyone now knew what Mangas were.

.

In fact, after reading the first chapters, many people were going crazy in anticipation.

They almost rioted and sent in messages saying that the author was cruel for keeping them in suspense for this long.

What's funny is that he was the author, and these people didn't care, almost chewing him to bits, begging him to give in.

What nobility?

If given a chance, they would definitely threaten him to realize more.

Even the visitors who had already left were very unwilling to go back without more.

Without a doubt, many merchants had already gathered large numbers of the first volume to see out in different empires.

They could already see it now.

Many people would come back daily to request more chapters, and might even cause a war if no more chapters and volumes were produced.

In a way, Landon felt bad for the merchants and store owners who were the middlemen in all this.

If they didn't sell more, many people would lose it!

.

A plain example of people losing it were little Momo and Linda, who had hurried him to produce more chapters almost every day.

He left them in the good part, which made many obsessed with manga.

Seeing the images while reading the dialogue, created a new reading experience that they had never felt or seen before.

It was as if everything was happening right before their very eyes.

Their minds seemed to get submerged into the manga as they created voices for how the characters would speak in their minds.

Everyone had their own interpretation of things, and even started arguing about what the personalities of their protagonists were like.

Yes. They had only seen one chapter. But so what?

That chapter alone had kept them up at night.

F***!

They wanted to scream and yell with all sorts of emotions when they saw their now-favourite protagonists go about their lives.

Little Linda had already fallen in love with Kagome in Inuyasha, while Little Momo liked Gon.

Plus, he wanted to know how the Hunter Exams would go.

The duo gritted their teeth, rolled up their sleeves, looked at each other and nodded as if talking telepathically.

From there, they wasted no time and rushed Landon out of bed.

Hmph!

The nerve of this guy!

Why was he always so slow?

Could it be some curse?
