"Master, the application's progress is going very well." Haze said.
"Well, we can launch the video hosting app in a few days." Shin would release these two apps and wait until they gain some recognition.
"Master, what will you do after this?"
"I'm going to make some more money on the foreign exchange market, buy a few more media companies and a small game company."
"That's great Master. Your games are excellent." Haze thought Shin's games could make a lot of money.
"I will look for the best options for media and games companies." Haze would compile which media companies would be the best within Shin's financial capabilities.
"Master, R&T is improving its financial condition thanks to your recommendations." Haze said.
"Well that's good; however, I'll change the name of this company later." Shin would no longer use the name "R&T".
*Knock!* Knock!*
Shin heard a knock at his door. He frowned a little, but still got up to open it.

"Sister, didn't you say we couldn't see him today?" Mya said.
"The current situation has given us an unexpected advantage, so we can take a little time." Maya replied.
"Good." Mya agreed with her sister.
They were talking when they heard the sound of the door opening. When Shin was about to open his mouth, Mya entered the room as if it were her own home.
"How are you?" Mya asked. "You were so amazing on television; however, it's surprising that you made so much money in a single operation."
"Thanks." Shin thanked her.
"We came to talk. Can we go in?" Maya asked; however, her question didn't make sense, because Mya was already inside.
"Well, I don't care." Shin returned to pack his bags. He was leaving this room today.

"Why are you packing your bags?!" Mya asked with a complex expression.
"My house has just been renovated so I'll be back today." He replied.
"I see…" Mya said with a slightly dejected expression. She wanted to ask him for his address, but she knew this could be too weird, so she kept quiet.
"Can we talk a little bit?" Maya asked.
"Well, I don't care."
Maya sat on the couch and looked at Shin with a puzzled expression.
"Did you put up those posters?" Maya asked. Mya was a little surprised by Maya's question, she had also been thinking about this possibility; however, she thought that would be very unlikely, as Shin didn't have that much power.
"I have no idea what you're talking about." Shin replied.
"You are a terrible liar." Maya said with an imperceptible smile. She didn't know how Shin had done it; however, she didn't ask, because he probably wouldn't answer.
"Well if you came here just to ask about it then I'm leaving." Shin had very important things to do, so he didn't have time right now.
"Where do you think you're going?!" Mya asked, dragging Shin into the bedroom.
"Let's play today!" She didn't wait for his answer and took the video game out of her bag.
*Sigh!*
Shin took the other controller and sat next to Mya.
"Let's level up today." She chose her character and started the game. Maya also wanted to play, but she didn't want to take the initiative; however, Mya ended up doing that, so she took the other controller and chose her character.
"Shin, mages are much better than swordsmen. Why don't you choose a mage?" Mya asked.
*bam!*
Shin did a karate chop to Mya's head.

"Its hurts! Why did you hit me?!" Mya asked with an indignant expression.
"You should never underestimate the sword, martial arts, or anything else. To answer your question, I use the swordsman class, because you keep trying to kill yourself among enemies."
"Humph! I don't do that, and why don't you just let me die?" Mya could just restart the game.
"Because my role on the team is to protect you." Shin replied.
"Shin…" Mya looked up at him with her eyes shining. Maya had a slight pang in her heart at Shin's words, but she suppressed the feeling and went back to playing.
"Well, today I'm going to teach you how to create spells, increase their potency and also how to control them better." Shin said while looking at the video game screen.
"See, if you carry the spell longer than usual, it gets stronger." Shin said as he pointed to the screen.
"Got it, so do we have to carry our spells?" Mya asked.
"No, just watch the character do it." Shin said.
"Hmm… is he compressing the spell?" Maya asked with an expression of doubt.
"Exactly, he's compressing the spell. Don't judge the potency of each spell just by its size. Inside a tennis ball, it can 'contain' an atomic bomb." Shin said.
"I understood." Mya and Maya nodded.
"Well, let's go to the next step. You can use 'corners' to do a certain spell; however, I don't recommend that."
"Why?" Mya asked.
"Because they're ineffective. A 'chant' makes it easier for you to imagine a certain spell; however, it takes more time and also lessens the spell's power." Shin replied.
"Open your skill trees and evolve the 'No chanting' skill. You too can learn through practice."
The two nodded and did as Shin asked.
"One thing you always need to keep in mind is: Magic is imagination."
"You need to use your imagination to perform magic. The possibilities are endless, you just need to think, understand and practice. Do you understand?"
"Yes!" 2x
"Good." Shin smiled and continued to play.
'They really learn fast.' Shin thought with a smile.

Seren is tired of living a lonely life on the island, but every time she brings up the lack of community to her parents, they tell her that it's better that way.

She really does. When it becomes crystal clear that nothing will change, the lure of far off horizons is louder than ever. The last straw is when an attempt to abide by the rules fails and even small pleasures are taken from her. Opportunity knocks and she throws open the door, determined to prove that she can take care of herself. Too bad the world is just as determined to prove otherwise.

Condemned
“The human body is a fragile thing. But the soul... The soul is malleable. Easily tainted. All it takes is one drop of blood to dye it all red.” Long ago, in a time remembered only by a few, the seven lords of Syvernia, led by the Great Hero Ludwig, ended the Great Calamity that plagued humanity for as long as time itself. It was the dawn of a new age of man. . . until the thirst for more poisoned the new lords. Slowly, the thread that held humanity together loosened and a thick haze consumed the lands between. Mysterious vanishings, supernatural forces, and silence warns of a looming threat inside the coat of fog. Though the struggle of the realms did not interest Leor, for he was condemned as a Purblight, until he took a seemingly simple job: escort Alden to Lightendale and collect the handsome reward, a reward that would let him live the rest of his life with ease. But it’s never that simple, especially for someone who denounced the Gods. All his life, death followed Leor everywhere he went, cutting down his friends and family. When his first love died at the hands of an agent of light, he was prepared to throw everything away until a mysterious voice promised him a chance for retribution and a chance to bring her back by completing the seven trials. Thrown into the realm's struggle against the approaching haze and themselves, will Leor, a Purblight and an acquaintance of tragedy, use the very power he disdains to accomplish his goals? This is the rewrite of my novel: Condemned; I changed it to past tense and added/ took out some ideas from the original. This is essentially the first draft since I'm writing as I go. Also, there might be or might not be Gore, Sexual, or Traumatizing content. I only put it there for a disclaimer in case I want to add it. I have no set release schedule yet, but I'll try to post once every 2 week. Thanks for your patience.
