《Shadow’s World》32. Vacation
Advertisement
I got up from the bed and finish packing my things. I was wearing a tee shirt and shorts ready to go to the beach. I pick up my luggage and walk to the training area to see if my team was ready to go as well. Everyone looks at me with a surprised look on their faces. I look at Erica as she was reading her book. I growled at her, “Erica, I do know you do not like fun activities but could you have please have gotten them ready?” She doesn’t even looks up from her book and says, “Oh, yeah we are supposed to go on vacation this week, I forgot. After a month of training, we should have gotten a mission to go out in the field.” “You and I both know that this was the plan and it is way too early for us to go on missions. You just didn’t want to go. You still don’t want to go but our parents want you at the villa this week, or no new books.” “Ugh, I bet it was your idea. Ok, fine then good thing I had a backup plan just in case something like this happens. Losers, we are having a vacation we will be gone for the entire week please get ready the car will leave in 4 hours and the plane leaves in 5. My parents own a villa on the beach so dress for the occasion.” The team starts high fiving each other but Isabella turns towards me and asks a question. “Why are we going on a vacation. I swear you seem like the type that only care about his revenge and will train for sun up to sun down trying to get stronger to get revenge while the rest of us would be caught in the crossfire. I was going to quit the team if the training didn’t let up but you surprise me.” I look at her and sighed, “Erica do I seem like that type of person?” Erica start to smirk and put her book over her face. Hey, I am not that bad and you do know I love to relax. Yes, in my younger years I was more impulsive but that has changed. “Team, it seems you guys think I am some kind of revenge monster that only care about revenge. I do care but the people that I need revenge against are very power and if I rush things I might destroy myself before I can get my revenge. I have learn early on that training all day and night wasn’t going to make me stronger and I need a break both for my mind and body. Make no mistake I am your leader and I will keep you alive as long as you listen to me. My revenge isn’t going to get you kill but I will die for my revenge.” “If you say so.” That was out of character for Erica. Well it doesn’t matter. “I will see you guys at the villa.” I pick up my luggage with wind and flew into the sky toward the villa.

It took me only around an hour to fly to the villa from the training area. I put all of my luggage in my room and look at the supplies my parents left us. They left us plenty of food and games to last us the entire week. I love my parents. They are such great people and I started to cry once again after reminding all of the things they did for me. I cannot let Erica see this side of my do not want her to make fun of me or treat me like a little kid. I might have to show my team this side of me because they need to know I am not a heartless robot. I doubt they agree with the statement that I wouldn’t sacrifice their lives for my revenge we will have to see.
I walk outside to the beach and lay on top of the sand. This is the life nothing but listening to the ocean and the waves. Should have stop fight and just live in a place like this? Revenge is hard I am nowhere near ready to face the people that have killed my parents and have tried to kill me, but they must pay. Someone else could lose their family over this. I got up and roared. I launch huge fireballs into the ocean. I look at how they went from orange to blue. Yes, I have finally done it. I have moved up a tier in strength once again. How many Jeonglyeong can use the blue flame it has to be less than 50 of us. I want to be the first to use the white flame I can feel it. It will not take much for me to learn it maybe 10 or so years. The fire in my burns once again, I can do this. I can get revenge on those people that tried to kill me. From what I heard my parents were good people I cannot something that happens to me happen ever again. I must send a message to all fairy users they are enemy right now. They have a cause of pain and they needed to stop. I lie back down on the beach and once again listen to the ocean. I cannot let this fire consume me. But also there is no way that I should let it die out. Should I sacrifice my team for the greater good or was my initial reaction to the correct one. If their lives would stop other people from dying I might have to sacrifice them. If I ask them how would they respond? They might say they will die for a cause like saving our race but are they willing to do it in practice? No, I do not think so. I have decided to use them the way I feel is right and then see what happens if one of my teammates die for the sake of the bigger picture. As I was thinking I fell asleep while listening to the sound of the ocean.

An Unwavering Craftsman
Given the hereditary nature of classes, everyone expects Damien—the child of two high-tiered adventurers—to be granted a high-tier combat class of his own. Expectations are betrayed, however, when Damien finds himself instead saddled with a crafting class of the lowest possible tier: [Neophyte Tailor]. Left practically crippled compared to those with better classes, Damien wants to avoid becoming a pawn in the machinations of the nobility, desiring only to grind his level in peace while wondering why the usual rules of inheritance were broken. Was it his desire to excel by his own effort, rather than an unearned blessing from a god? Did the Five take offence at his opinions on the unfairness of hereditary classes? Or maybe it was something to do with the alien voice that intruded on his ceremony? A voice that offers great power, and freedom from the tyranny of the Five, but that never names its price. This story is litRPG-lite. While the class someone possesses controls most of their lives, people don't get dinged at for every level they gain, nor can they see their status without undergoing a special ritual. The MC has no romantic interest. Crafting is merely a way to game the system, and doesn't feature heavily in the story, aside from a few descriptions on how they're carrying out the system abuse. There is, on one unfortunate occasion, maths. The pace is quick. This was a participant in the Spring 2022 writathon. (i.e. it was posted as-written at high speed. I may give it another editing pass in the future.)
