I awoke at five in the morning to see a symphony of pencils and erasers doing the various school and work assignments I had been working on last night. First I tried to search my mind for an explanation but I quickly gave up and instead opted to bring out the Diary and ask.
Why are my pencils and erasers doing my work for me?
Would you like them to stop?
Due to my grogginess I first shook my head in response but then realized the futility of it and wrote my response.
Not necessarily but if it's all incorrect then it's just an inconvenience .
Everything that is written is pulled directly from your memories. I just helped you create a few sprites to help you complete your tasks. They are essentially just extracted thought that can dissipate at your will.
Not quite understanding but still quite satisfied with the explanation I made myself a cup of coffee and started to prepare for school and work while my work was completed.
As it was I only remebered my concern aftrer my second cup. I recounted the story of being seen by Sparrrow the past night,
So what do I do?
A single human seeing a Fairy makes no difference because humans cannot come to our world anyways . There is also the fact that Fairies do occasionally travel to the human world and grant humans wishes as a part of the graduation or coming of age ceremony; You will have to undergo it as well.
If you wish, you can add her as an ally to keep your life here sorted out when you have to make extended leaves but otherwise if she never sees you in your fairy form again she will eventually dismiss it as a delusion.

I immedietaly calmed down after and quickly gathered my materials for both work and school and loaded them into the car Will had insisted I got. His main argument was that it would be better to show up like an actual boss in a car than to magically appear out of nowhere because it creeped the employees out.
I parked a bit further away from the school than I would have preferred and walked the rest of the way, after all it would be pointless to keep my wealth a secret but show up everyday in a fancy car.
There was also the added incentive of not wanting it wrecked by avid followers of Alice who would want to get back at me for yesterday’s altercation.
At this, I could only sigh as I realized that my plan had backfired on me.
Instead of being kicked from the group and fading back into obscurity as I had wanted; I would either have to be bullied through the next semester until graduation or make my own front to defence against her offence.
I had underestimated her pride and more importantly I had gravely underestimated the devotion of her followers and was currently paying the price for it.
I would have to form a group and the first person I would enlist would have to be a right hand man, like the one called Jake. he seemed like a reasonable guy and was decently popular on his own even without Alice’s support.
I would need a strong ally as well, which would have to be Sparrow, Will’s sister. While it hurt my pride a bit to receive aid from both siblings I wasn't so prideful as to let it stop me.
I got to school an hour earlier than needed and brought out the annoying mask and a hat to cover my undone hair. The grand plan was to launch the new group as soon as possible, solidify our reign during the showcase in july and over take Alice’s, but for that I would need to push a bit of my weight around.

I walked into the staff room where all the staff was gathered and took a seat at the head of the table. Their eyes bored holes into me but it was almost nothing in comparison to Cambridge’s hawk-like stares so I was able to ignore them.
I tapped the files in front of me and smiled as charmingly as possible, a tactic that due to my new features was useable.
“ Shall we begin?”

Yet the interference of an unknown event during the casting of his spell led him to be thrown through space and time.

Leveling and achieving a class beyond a simple farmer or peddler was an affair of life and death combined with years of hard training. Goblins were not the fodder that they should be, orcs filled bedtime stories in order to scare children into behaving, and a dragon? You might as well pack up and move to another country.He, however, enters this world with the rare and powerful class of the Arcanist. How will the recently ardent seeker of magic find greater heights, or will he land in deeper depths?Additional Tags: Game elements, Another World, Mature Themes Cover Art: by NGT http://forum.royalroadl.com/showthread.php?tid=83944Current Word Count: 413,193Weekly Schedule: Long Chapter(s) Every Saturday Night EST

Horizon
Emiluna is about to turn 16 and gain access to her first two classes. Living in a small village in the middle of nowhere, she always wanted to become a Hunter. Having learned a bit under her parents, a miller and a seamstress, she was sure she could never pick a class that meant staying inside all day. But being a Hunter is more than just a class. It means providing meat for the village, culling small pests near the cultivated fields and most importantly guarding the village from predators and monsters. But Emiluna is not a normal girl and her destiny far bigger than she could have ever imagined.Join her as she finds out what awaits just behind the horizon.[Word from the author]I am looking to create a fantasy world that has some logic to it and stays believable even as characters gain power and progress in levels.Classes and level quantify the people's progress, but they do not artificially inflate their power to demi-god levels. I am primarily trying to write a captivating story, not "power-porn". That means it will be slower than the fast burning litRPG you might be used to, but it won't burn out that quickly either and I won't drop half of my plots at the wayside. I should mention that English is not my native language. I hope it is mostly unnoticeable, but sometimes I manage to slip some awkard sentence structure in there (German sometimes puts things together in reverse).It it also my first time writing an actual fantasy novel and the first time writing anything at length in English. Any constructive feedback is very welcome.Credit where credit is due: Cover picture by Paul Bica (Licensed under CC 2.0)Check out his amazing photos here: https://www.flickr.com/photos/dexxusYes, my cover picture is a photo, not a drawing. :D I might try my hand at some Paint-ification later to add the title.[participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge]
