《Megane Saga》Chapter 4 - Derry bread

HANA’S POV
“Hana, the spell will completely be based on your imagination. Imagine the spell you want to create, Imagine the flames you want to release.” Said teacher Mavlia, my teacher in magic.
“Y-yes teacher.” I said as I closed my eyes and imagined the output desired. A flame, a flame...it’s orange and it burns? “Fire ball!”
Small flames came out of my hand and fell to the ground before dissipating. I failed?
“Hana, imagine a bigger flame. Imagine it engulfing everything you see and burning everything it touches.” Said teacher Mavlia.
“Y-yes teacher.” Bigger flames, bigger flames, it engulfs everything...like pacman? T-then it burns everything, so everything turns orange right? “F-fire ball!”
A spherical flame bigger than a man appeared on my hands, and it had a mouth like pacman.
“That’s it! Now release it!”
“Go pacman!”
The flames moved forward while it’s mouth continuously opened and closed like pacman and the moment it hit something, it dispersed.
“...Hana, again, from the top.” Said teacher Mavlia while looking a bit disappointed.
“Y-yes teacher!” I’ll do my best! I’ll become stronger and help the people in need!
RIKA’S POV
“Ok, Rika this time hit this” Said Graz, my instructor, as he threw a piece of wood in the air.
I threw a dagger, which hit the center of the wood.
“Nice, next this one.” He threw another piece of wood, which I easily hit.
It has been three days since we were summoned, yet our training only started today since the three of us needed time to cope up with our current situation. It’s good that they let us do that but I still can’t handle the fact that we have to fight for them.
Yeah, we became heroes and we did get abilities, but in the end we still have to kill right? It may be demons, but it doesn’t change the fact that we have to kill. Sigh, do we really have to do it?
Sigh, and why aren’t they thinking about Shizuka? Even if she’s not a friend she’s still a fellow japanese, we can’t just forget about her. She’s still just a normal school girl how is she supposed to survive alone in this world? Even if we’re heroes, we still have people that guide us, but what about her?

Sigh, it seems I’m the only one thinking about these things? Looks to me that Hana and Shun has already decided to stay in this world, but I still haven’t! How can I when my siblings might be making a mess in the house!
Is Ren doing the laundry right? Is Eren eating properly? Is Mika studying for her entrance exam? Is Haruto still locked up on his room playing eroge? I DON’T KNOW!
“Ok, this time I’ll throw three at the same time.”
Shut up! I’m busy thinking!
The moment he threw the pieces of wood, all three got hit by daggers.
“Nice, you’re future is a bright one, now try hitting four.”
Why did I have to be summoned?
SHUN’S POV
I’m swinging my sword continuously, making every swing stronger and stronger.
“Stronger! Swing like you’re trying to rip your arms off!” Said Philia, my instructor and the second princess of Arthass.
“Yes ma’am!”
“Are you gay or something? Louder!”
“YES MA’AM!”
“That’s the spirit, now go break your arms!”
“YES MA’AM!”
This is harder than I thought, but it’s fine. If everything was easy then it wouldn’t be fun. All the heroes I’ve read about have gone through hard trainings to be strong, so it’s only natural for me, a hero, to go through this.
I’ll become stronger, and stronger, and stronger, and I’ll save the world from the evil demons. I’ll save the humans, I’ll save the world, I’ll become a hero!
But I have to kill, can I kill? Yes, everything I do is justified, I’m doing everything for the sake of the humans. What I do is right, what I do is justice. There’s no need to hesitate.
Are you looking at me now? Your efforts to save me from the kidnappers wasn’t wasted. I’m going be just like you, a hero.
“You getting distracted, FOCUS!”
“YES MA’AM”
SHIZUKA’S POV
Running in the forest, wearing a plated white shirt, with brown pants, with a sword on my waist and a bag on my back, with my treasured glasses was I, looking for something interesting. It’s been two days since I left the capital and I’m now in the middle of Feter Forest.
I’m still 2 days away from Valdan city, and I can’t wait to see what I’ll find there. I can freely act there since the other three heroes are still at the capital. I don’t know why I’m hiding my personality from them though.

While running, I sensed movements a few meters in front of me. As I got closer, I lowered my speed and saw a group of caravans. I went closer and called their attention and once they saw me, they let me join them. I could travel faster on my own, but joining them should be more interesting.
There’s a total of 6 caravans with two horses pulling each. There are 8 knights with them acting as guards. I’m now sitting inside one of the caravans with a young man.
“I understand that we’re still in the safe zones, but don’t travel alone again ok? What if you encounter dangerous monsters?”
I’ll decimate them. “I’ll run away?”
The man slapped his forehead as he shook his head. “Young lady, please, just find someone to join you in your travels. I’m sure there are lots who are willing to accompany you.”
“Yes, yes, I understand. Do you have any food?”
“Don’t change the subject!”
At this point, there’s no need to tell him my strength yet. Unless bandits show up or the whole caravan becomes my enemy, I’ll act normally. For now, identify!

Nothing out of the ordinary...
While eating bread that Andas gave me, I sat at the edge of the caravan and enjoyed the view. The trees we separated since we were in the path for caravans, there were small creatures taking a peak at us, and the other caravans at the back waved at me once they saw me.
Once I finished the bread, I looked back and said. “More”
“Don’t ask like it’s free, this are my merchandise...”
“I’ll pay, I have money.” I said while taking a gold coin from my bag.
“I-is that so? Don’t you have copper coins? It’s only 10 copper coins each...”
“Give me every bread you have, and keep the change.” I said while throwing the gold coin to him. “By the way, what’s this bread called?”
“Sigh, it’s derry bread. Young lady, you shouldn’t act like this anymore ok? People will think you have more money and might target you.” He said while pushing a box full of derry bread.
As I bit a part of the bread, the taste of sweetness entered my mouth. It wasn’t just sweetness, there’s something there that’s addicting, I just can’t put my hand on it. Oh well, doesn’t matter, I have a whole box.
While eating, the man called me and said. “Here, the change, that’s exactly 95 silver coins and 10 copper coins.”
“I’m satisfied with the food so keep the change.”
“Take it, I have my own pride as a merchant so just take it.” He said as he placed the pouch of coins to my side. “Sigh, you really need to find someone to accompany you fast. I can’t imagine what would happen if you keep traveling alone.”
After that I continued to eat while watching at the edge of the caravan.
The caravans stopped to camp out an hour before it became dark. They started cooking and stuff while I sat on the ground and watched the sky. No matter which world I stay at, I always find the night sky relaxing.
While looking at the sky, I sensed a movement. It was to far from the camp and the caravans so it was from a different party. I observed its movement and it seems to be observing the caravans.
I went to Andas and said. “I’ll be off somewhere, I’ll come back later.”
“Where are you going?”
“Don’t worry, I won’t go too far.”
“Sigh, it’s dangerous for a girl to walk around in the forest at night, I’ll go with you.”
“You can’t.”
“What do you mean I can’t?”
I’ll follow someone that might be a bandit, I might even kill him. “I need to pee.”
His got flustered and said. “A-a young lady like you shouldn’t say that with a straight face!”
“What do you want me to say then?”
“Sigh, forget it, just don’t go too far ok?”
I walked away after that and when I was sure none could see me, I dashed to the one observing the caravan. I appeared behind him and pointed my sword on his neck. “Why are you observing us?”
Even though he’s surprised, he still tried to pull something from his pocket, but he couldn’t since his arm fell to the ground. “Answer me or you’ll lose another limb.” Identify.

Life in another world with an Immunity System
NOTE: I just finished a large scale editing with the chapters. From now on, the world is no longer a 1000X Earth. I have added my original element. From here on, with a few exceptions, no similarity can be found with our Earth. Thank you. The change has been applied from chapter 1. So if anyone finds any missed places or traces of my previous world-building, please comment and notify me. Andel lived in a world where those with powers will have the final say in everything. In his world, having no aptitude to either magic or Ki means you are even worse than ants. Unfortunately, he didn’t have any aptitude to either. His life should have been hell, but due to being the son of two powerful parents and descendant of a powerful family saved him from a wretched fate. Life was harsh, but Andel wasn’t one to mourn and do nothing. From his childhood, he learned all kinds of close-combat styles and martial arts, proving himself to be a genius at close combat as long as ki isn’t involved. As genius as he was, there was no way he could match those with powers, right? Wrong! Andel had another identity. He was originally a person from Earth who got transmigrated after an accident. Moreover, during his transmigration, he also gained a system that gave him resistance to various things in exchange for experience points. With the Immunity System in hand, Andel decided to finally step into this magical new world and make a name for himself, after spending twenty years in training.

Pawns of God
Five Lines PitchJoin Mark in his fight against a God and change the game's destiny! Delve into a slow-paced story focused on the progression of the main party and the development of the world. Mark himself will be narrating his life inside the game, and to a much lesser extend outside. Guild building, economy, and strategy are the central pieces of the novel. Mark is not overpowered, he will have to build his own power through action-packed battles, trials, traumas, love, and death. Accompany him, the healer and the strategist, an agent of chaos, in the adventure of his life. Without further preamble, I will let Mark take the mic. SynopsisHi! My name is Mark. This is my story, my life as I live it day after day. I’m in my thirties, and there’s nothing I love more than playing online games. I’ve just joined the action on the newest VRMMO game, Pawns of God. An immersive experience you can play while sleeping. Of course, as a game that takes pride in its long development and technological advances, everything inside seems and feels real. Beware, this is not a game-turns-real story. I love my own world and I would detest being summoned into another one. If that ever happens, I’ll just quickly take my life and be done with it. I play with my friends, in a party of 5. We have taken several roles, but lately, I've come to love being a healer. It's my secret ambition to someday be the shotcaller. I am not overpowered. If there is any bug or exploit in the game, they are yet to be discovered. Anyhow, for a game of this scale, the company is pouring all of its resources into test servers, QA, and beta tests. I don’t expect to find any, so I’ll be playing the game just like any other person. I must say, though, I am easily distracted, as you will immediately notice once you start. I'm working on it, I promise to improve! I am no hero. Being in my 30s, my heart is too old for this shit. I wouldn’t mind being one, of course. Who hasn’t dreamt of it? Either way, I’m not doing any grand quest to save the world. Whatever the game throws to their users, I’ll be there to experience it. Most of my life, at least the interesting parts that I’ll be narrating, happen inside the game itself. Rarely, there will be some IRL (In Real Life) chapters. You’ll understand, however, that as a freelance software developer, there is not much I can entertain you with when outside the game. Did I say I love games? Well, I’m also a fan of LitRPG literature. You know, journeys of magic, relationships, personal development, items, skills, discovery… In the spirit of not overwhelming my public, I’ll condense each chapter into circa 1500 words. You might have noticed some tags over this story, let me elaborate. I like to swear. I’m not shy when it comes to cursing my enemies, friends, or even myself. When there’s blood, I tell it as I see it. And… it hurts to admit it, but I’m not a casanova. Of course, this doesn’t mean that I won’t ever find love. So, in case I do end up finding it, let’s keep my sexual options open. As for traumas, none yet, but the future is vast and unknown. Release Schedule The schedule is subject to change, particularly if enough readers end up loving it. All chapters are already written, thus there is enough freedom to modify them.
