~From here, Claire Luna is change to Clair Lune~
"Blayd Village is too near to here, Freign Village is in Duke Lune's territory. Hmm... Ah ha! This is it! Drabel! This is the best and most suitable candidate! Let me see, it's about 2 days of carriage to there, a countryside village surrounded by nature, and it is in the free zone territory! Means no one take control there!"
Clair's eyes light up and her eyes that reflecting the light shine brightly like the stars in the sky.
Suddenly, a thought came into her 'why I didn't complain to Duke Lune and tell him the truth? Or, asked him to help me escaped?' Clair previous excitement died down as she sat back down. After a whild, she sighed and a sad smile appeared.
'Silly me, did I just forget what his words just now? He doesn't even believe in Clair. If he believe in Clair, no way Clair would die in the end. Escape? Isn't that embarrass him more? He might as well put me under house arrest.'
Clair stood up again and started to pack things up, her eyes wandering around that luxurious bedroom with a sense of familiarity, sadness and emptiness.
Clair noticed she didn't have a simpler clothes or dress as every single clothing in her wardrobe is a fine material dress and custom made with meticulous handiwork. It would be to eye catching if she wanted to go to the countryside.
She went out of the mansion after notified the butler, without minding the whispers and looks on the street with her bandaged state. She can still walk and see with one eye, plus, it's not like she is blind or what, her eye is fine, it's just a deep cut above her eyebrow which caused the bleeding.

She walked leisurely, seemingly relaxed as she looked around until she arrive in front of a grand and luxurious store, there she saw two figure standing next to each other lovey dovey in front of the store.
She rolled her eyes and try to get away as soon as possible without being noticed but unfortunately, "Clair! You're here too!" A poisonous sweet voice rang out loudly, attracting a lot of people.
'Damn it, pig gonna have a lot of attention.' Clair cursed inside and stay rooted at her place, not moving or turning back. Anne saw this and smirk before she put on an apologetic and concern look while running towards Clair, her hands grab Clair's wrist, but unbeknown to everyone, there is small needle in between her fingers which prickled Clair.
"Ouch!" Clair frowned and immediately pulled her wrist away and slap Anne's hands. Anne appeared shocked and suddenly teared up.
"Clair! Do you have to do this? I thought we were friends! How can you do this to me just to get his Higness' attention?" Anne shouted sadly while running into the embrace of Prince Carl.
Gasped and whispers could be heard from the people around that had been attracted by the commotion. All of them look disdainfully and sneered at Clair. Clair calmly raised her eyebrows and walked away as if nothing happened.
'Talking about drama queen, a simple tear and words could moved a hundread of hearts, is this the so called luck and power of the main character?' Clair sneered and walk pass the crowd which had increased and the whispers become more and more louder.
Not long after walking, Clair arrived in front of a not so sparkling sign of a shop 'Bred's Taylor' , it stated. Clair walked in, although the shop is not luxurious or sparkling everywhere, it is still neat and clean.

As the shop is at the end of the street, only a little bit of people walk pass here therefore only one or two customer is inside looking at the clothes, not minding Clair that just walked in.
A young man arrived beside Clair and bowed respectfully before asking for her orders. "Let me see some simple dress or female clothing that does not stand out much." Clair stated calmly as her eyes wander around some cloaks displayed near the entrance of the shop.
The young man nodded and lead Clair the a certain part of the shop which displayed a variety of female clothing and dresses. Clair nodded satisfiedly and dismissed the young man as she wanted to looked onto the clothes alone.
Clair fiddled and search the clothes before chosen a few simple and plain yet elegant dresses and clothing. She called the young man back and gave him all the clothes to be packaged.
"Oh yeah, and give me a black, dark blue, brown and dark red cloaks in front. One each." Clair spoke as she handed out a bag of gold coins to the young man.
The young man nodded and a few moments later came back with the package in his hands. "Thankyou." Clair spoke while smiled sincerely to the young man. The young man quickly bowed and lowering his head.
After Clair left, the young man raised his head and looked at the departing figure, his cheeks flushed red. 'Indeed, a great beauty even with a bandaged face.' His heart thought while thumping hard and fast.
A certain someone come out from a corner of the shop and smiled cunningly like a fox, 'Interesting, and she is pretty like rumoured' thought the person, before disappearing into crowds after walked out from the shop.

Soul of the Warrior
In a world where Classes, Stats, and Levels are the everyday norm, Reivyn has a secret. He was unusually aware of his surroundings from an incredibly early age, and Skills and Stats were acquired easily. He was just the son of an ordinary village family, and nothing appeared out of the ordinary on the surface. But below the surface, dreams of another life help shape his mentality and growth. Why does he have some remembrance of a past life, and what is his purpose in this new one? "Soul of the Warrior" is what I call a Semi-Isekai LitRPG. I say "semi," because Reivyn's past life is remembered like a dream, and very incomplete. It is still Isekai, though, as he remembers enough that it directly shapes his personality and his sense of self. The System that governs the world of "Soul of the Warrior" is a combination of modified versions from Selkie's "Beneath the Dragoneye Moons" and Kosnik4's "Magic Smithing." I have changed enough of these Systems and combined them in a way that is unique that I'm mostly sure it's fine, but I still have requested permission to use these ideas. They have both graciously granted me permission. Winner of the April Writathon Challenge. Release Schedule is Mon, Wed, Fri on Royal Road.

my first story ^U^
author note: yaaa hurray it’s my first story ^U^ i hope you all like it! all characters belong to my special friends who submitted them!!ok heres the first chapter enjoy ^U^ TL note: Some of you may be wondering why I am translating a story written originally in English, to English. I remember reading this story many years ago, as a teen, and had since dismissed it as a bizarre fever dream. Only recently, through much Googling, did I manage to rediscover it, and as such decided to not only read it again, but fix the author’s many typing issues and share the context of what I remember from its original happening. I believe the story underneath to hold deeper meanings than its strange happenings, but at minimum I hope you will appreciate it for the sheer weirdness of it all. For the best experience, skim it for your first reading and, if you are interested, read more deeply the second time.Some typing is left as-is to preserve what I believe to be authorial intent, or at least necessary effect. If you notice any typing issues I managed to miss, please email them to me at [email protected]

Ars Magica
Our vision comes back into focus. Our eyes, while being able to perceive the immediate surroundings, still leave us with our minds uncomprehending towards what is actually occurring. Sure, there are definitive things that we can focus on, like the fact that we're either out upon the open sea or the open ocean, there not being much of a difference with no land in sight, as well as the fact that we appear to be upon a haphazardly constructed metal boat, whose seams are barely able to keep a hold of themselves in the crashing waves. However, that does not let us understand what exactly is causing the waves in the first place. If we were to rewind time, we'd find ourselves upon a calm sea under a peaceful sky with the only difference, being a small whirlpool that would be the precursor towards this uproar around the boat. Lightning flashes in the sky, with no clouds being near, and anyone actually manning the boat has either died towards the cause of the smashing tides in the first place, or are fighting amongst the flashes of lightning, all while trying not to become devoured, demolished, and utterly decimated by the beast roiling in the whirling waves. To better understand exactly what is happening here, there is one singular event that needs to be understood, that needs to be explained, and that is the arrival of a creature named Dave. Stepping back from current events and going towards this creature's first appearance in the world, we begin to hear the sound of water slowly dripping across rocky ground. The cavern is utterly silent except for this one constant, its cause feeding channels downwards, sloping towards cracks in the rubble along the floor from broken stalagmites and stalactites. And there, lying on top of something which had fallen over recently, judging from its cracks, is a person, the creature named Dave. His form is fast asleep, either from the impact or from an intoxication, judging from the smell upon its breath. A bright light suffuses into it for a second, giving life towards the pale skin, before it slowly dies down back to the comfortable black of the cave that it's within. Before this moment in time, Dave did not exist in the physical world. At least, not in the reality that he finds himself born into. We do not know whether or not his existence is simply a cosmic joke, or something that is being played out on purpose. All that we do know, is that one moment, the body was not in the cave, and simply formed in the next. The actual earliest time that we know Dave exists, is the interpolation of the memories of J-209, which we'll begin looking into shortly to gain context towards the coming narrative that is being written and hastily trying to keep itself written. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Warning: This story has several things which might turn its readers away. The first is that this story has shifting points of perspective. Don't worry about that previous sentence too much though, as the main character will always have a first person perspective associated with them. However, any other character from which we're viewing the story from will either be in third-person, as we are not necessarily in their shoes at the moment, or in first person, given that the narrator is an actual physical presence within the story. For the most part, chapters will be self-contained with their perspectives, so there will not be an abundance of switching perspectives within the same chapter. The most that an average reader would have to worry about is the fact that perspectives can switch between chapters. The second thing is that the main character is a bit on the 'special' side of things. He's not exactly mentally there most of the time, so there will be some times that his personality or his thoughts do not actively align with his actions. The third, and final thing of importance, is the fact that past the first couple of chapters, nothing has been planned in advance. There are arcs and plots that I want to do, want to implement, or have already been set into motion from our main character's introduction to the world, but the method that I use for my story writing and generating leads towards a bit more random chance being enabled. Basically...there's a lot of dice rolling behind the scenes. To not complicate the story further than its regular LitRPG elements, the rolls will not be publicly available. However, there will be knowledge within the author's notes on whether or not there were positive or negative critical rolls that had occurred within the chapter. You have been warned. Updates: Mondays & Fridays (Schedule permitting) Typical Chapter Length: (2,000-3,000)

Re: (Union//Incarnation)
Two years ago, a meteor fell and decimated the southeastern lands of Gaia, turning them into wastelands constantly shrouded in white fog. None of those who saw the blazing calamity with their own eyes lived to tell the tale, and those who attempted to venture in never came back. Since then, towers, caverns, and ruins have appeared and disappeared without a pattern. Those who were brave enough to venture in were rewarded with a partner capable of defying the natural laws as humanity knows it. People started to call them ‘Incarnation’, and before long, more and more Incarnation were gathered and sold as commodity, especially after a billionaire has sponsored a fighting tournament offering cash prizes to those possessing the strongest Incarnation, spurring the greedy and desperate to hunt for the fabled creatures at the cost of their lives. Claire Saphira wanted none of that. She simply wished for a life where she could live without worry of her own survival. As she ran from the debt collectors for the umpteenth time, she was swallowed by an errant tower, where she saw a frail, pale-skinned girl with ashen hair hung by chains. It was a chance, a chance to participate in the tournament and live without worrying about survival. Yet, something nagged in the back of her mind. Why did she look so familiar? Planned release schedule: One chapter every day for Mon-Fri, and a break on Sat-Sun. The release will slow down at some point, but most likely won't go under 3 chapters a week.
