《Insignia》"The Phantom" Ch 82. Chat on the road
Advertisement
--- Chapter 83 ---
The morning of the tournament finally arrives. Hiro and Red stand face to face for the first time after three months. They smile at each other, exchanging glances. Not speaking to one another, yet communicating perfectly.
Master: Alright! It's time everyone! We should head out now!
They break their glances and head toward their assigned carts. Everyone competing tags along, including Geno.
Master: Now, you all trained so hard. Red, Hiro, Luna, Cari, Romeo, El, Ava, and Togi. Do your best out there!
Participants: Right!
They all line up and get in the carts. The master gets inside Kota’s fancy cart, and they all head toward the tournament grounds.
Master: So how was he?
Kota: He was pretty good, difficult to train but pretty well i’d say.
Master: I see, why was it difficult?
Kota: A couple reasons really. For starters, I’ll start with the weird one.
Master: Weird one?
Kota: Well, most insignia are based on monsters, and his is a dragon, so it's already ‘conflicting’. But when someone uses their insignia it's usually them working with the insignia. Like a conversation between them. But it's odd, because his insignia is sabotaging itself.
Master: Sabotaging?
Kota: Yeah, it seemed like his insignia was willing to cooperate but it stopped itself, preventing that outcome. Almost as if his insignia has two personalities.
Master: I see.
Kota: Yah, or maybe it's just him, I'm not really sure about anything right now. But on another note, he was also so damn difficult because he was never taught how to use it! You could have at least told him the thing about linear thinking or the old generic flow like a river speech!
Master: You know why I didn’t tell him.
Kota: Yeah, but I don't think it would ruin your little vow, just helping a kid. He’s already going to have a difficult time with his insignia, because it's a dragon. Trust me, I know.

Master: I know, but I’m not using my own or even teaching insignia’s ever again. Other than this one I guess.
He signals to the red dot on the back of his hand.
Master: I have to use this one.
Kota: Sigh. So you're really serious about never using your insignia again?
Master: As serious as I can be.
Kota: Fine, whateva. But you still have to attend the meetings, and do your duties. Light saint Taizawa.

Kill the Harem
I was never a person who struggled with anything. Whatever I wanted to achieve, I achieved, except for finding a good reason for living. That was until I died. Perhaps it was karma, or perhaps it was some particularly sick god. I woke up in a world full of magic and encountered all these women who became romantically obsessed with me. It bears an uncanny resemblance to those garbage isekai series that I had the misfortune of reading in high school. The problem is, I loathe isekai. It got to the point where ever time I read about a busty elf-girl wanting to follow the protagonist, I wanted to throw something. It's illogical and it ruins the flow of the story. But now, I'm the one getting harassed by such illogical people? What complete and utter drivel. If any obsessive crazy person tries to make me theirs without even caring about my opinion, I'll f*cking kill them! I'll kill them all! I'm getting back home no matter what. My favorite manga hasn't finished yet and I want to read it to the end. Q&A Section Q: Is the protagonist mentally healthy? A: No, not even close. Q: Are all the female characters stupid? A: Barring extenuating circumstances, nobody rational would fall for a guy like the protagonist, so there's a bit of selection bias going on here. Q: Is this about a Gary Stu killing a bunch of irrational harem characters in a cliche isekai world? A: Go reread the title and the synopsis. Q: Do the women die because they won't sleep with the protagonist? A: No. I'm not sure where anyone got that from since it's entirely the opposite of what happens.

The Dangers of a Double Life
Arthur Tracz is an IT technician, a loving husband and excellent friend. Aoife Brosnan is a courier, good daughter, and a volunteer. Gary White is a detective, ex-husband, and a father. They appear to be your average citizens, yet they harbour secrets some of which are so dark that if they were to be revealed they would end up on the top of the news on the international level. These people have no connection to each other, yet their double lives will lead to their fates interweaving. Their lives will never be the same. That is... if they survive. This story was originally supposed to be game, but due to me working on more important project and because most likely I would never have time and funds to do it. I decided to write it as a book which gives me more options in pursuing its narrative. Chapters will be released one a week, Sunday, 14 am CET.
